The crowd erupted in polite applause, but Cassius raised his hand with just the right amount of humble confidence, acting as if he didn't think he deserved the praise he was getting.

"Please, Lady Smith, you're far too kind," he said, his voice smooth and kind. He looked at her and smiled like the humblest man in the world, "It was my absolute pleasure to help such a distinguished family in their time of need."

The truth was, Cassius had no idea what specific deal had actually saved Smith Royal. He knew it was all a fabrication, a lie that had somehow spiraled out of control.

He had nothing to do with the Sterling Enterprises deal. He'd simply shown up at the right time, and the Smiths' desperate need for a savior had done the rest. However, he was not going to correct them now.

Just then, more of the smith family members appeared to greet him and thank him for his help.

Seraphina appeared at his side, beaming like a proud mother. "Cassius, you're too modest. Without your connection

Hey everyone! Quick heads up. I accidentally numbered the last chapter as 120 instead of 111. Apologies for that. The story order is still correct, only the numbers were off. I’ve fixed them now, waiting for my editor to confirm the changes, probably on Monday or Tuesday.

    Vanessa couldn't even look Jason in the eye and say she wanted to end it. The truth was, she didn't want to, not yet.She only resented him because he had lied, making her believe he had secured a deal with Sterling Enterprises, when that was a lie. Before that, she was beginning to accept him as her fiancé. Hell, her impression of him had even changed. She respected him a lot. And as much as he had disappointed her now, there was no way she wanted anything to do with Cassius. It was better to be with Jason than Cassius. Not because Cassius was some bad person, but because she didn't like him at all.Her family expected her to end things with Jason… and then go propose to Cassius. That was never going to happen.Jason watched her as she looked away when he asked his question. He waited for her answer, but she said nothing.Seeing her silence, he understood perfectly why. She didn't agree with her family. The only barrier between them was the lie she believed he told, and nothing more

    “Darling, thank goodness you’re here. This whole situation has gotten completely out of hand. The poor boy simply can’t accept reality.”The guests leaned in, practically salivating with anticipation. This was better than reality TV—they were about to witness the Smith heiress publicly destroy her own fiancé. Hell, had they known this was what went on at the smith royale events, most of them would never skip them.Vanessa’s eyes darted from her mother to Jason. Her anger at him—for what she believed was his lie—was undeniable. But hearing them say that he was causing a scene? That made her even more furious. The audacity.Jason met her gaze and let out a small, tired sigh. He didn’t defend himself—because he figured she knew him well enough by now to understand that he’d never create drama on purpose. In fact he never did at all.But Jason was wrong.“Jason, at least have some decency not to cause a scene,” Vanessa said, her voice sharp with disappointment. If Jason was capable of ly

    Jason could not believe what he was hearing. His gaze moved slowly between Charlie and Seraphina, disbelief etched across his face. He didn’t know what was wrong with these people, but it sure as hell was infuriating. And it had to be said that Jason barely let himself get infuriated, but this time he had no choice, because how could they not know he was the one who had made that deal happen?Back when the smith family got the news, Jason had specifically told them what would happen, and even Vanessa herself had confirmed it. ‘And who the hell is Cassius anyway?’ Jason thought to himself. But the name itself made Jason’s jaw tighten. Whoever this idiot named Cassius was, he had some balls—or maybe he was just a shameless bastard claiming a victory he had nothing to do with. It made Jason want to teach this Cassius character a lesson he wouldn’t forget.But thinking about lessons, Jason knew the Smith family deserved one too. He let out a slow, deliberate sigh and asked, “And who is t

    Jason stepped out of the car in a tailored black suit that cost more than most people’s cars. The fabric moved like liquid shadow, perfectly fitted to his frame. Already a handsome guy without any embellishment, the suit transformed him into something that commanded attention, and he was getting it.Cameras clicked the moment his foot touched the pavement. Flashes erupted like tiny lightning storms.‘What the hell’ Jason’s eyes swept over the cluster of reporters. Then understanding dawned, cold and bitter. Of course. The Smith family would do something like this—invite the press just to show off. Probably hoping to broadcast their big comeback to the world.He adjusted his cufflinks with deliberate precision, straightened his jacket, and strode toward the entrance like he owned not just the building, but the entire block.Whispers sparked among the photographers and other news people. Even some of the guests who were just arriving could not help but slow down and look back at him and

    As Jason sat in the backseat of his sleek black car, watching the city lights blur past the tinted windows, his phone buzzed.Vanessa: ‘Just so you know, my family’s throwing a party tonight at the Pearl Hotel. It’s big. Everyone important will be there.’Jason read the message once, his expression unreadable. The Pearl Hotel? Of course the Smiths would go all out. They had just landed a deal with Sterling Enterprises—thanks to him—and now they wanted the whole city to see them as royalty. He was curious to see how they will treat him now after he has helped them so tremendously. Jason now hoped they’d finally acknowledge the truth: he was the reason for their resurrection. Hoped they’d give their blessing to him and Vanessa—publicly, sincerely. He had helped them rise from the ashes. They had no choice but to respect him now. Or so he thought.What Jason didn’t know was that this night—this celebration—wasn’t going to be the victory lap he expected. In fact, to them, he wasn’t even
