Elvis had been watching the VIP section through the surveillance cameras, eager to witness every detail — to see Mr. Thorne work his so-called magic.

But when Vanessa refused the drink, his jaw tightened with fury. If he had hands right now, he might’ve punched a wall or broken something.

“Oh, come on,” he muttered, kicking the console with a dull thud. Her refusal meant the plan could fail — and that annoyed him more than he liked to admit.

Fred, his younger brother, lounged behind him with his usual smugness. “What now? That bitch smelled something. Probably saw through Thorne’s greasy charm.”

Elvis scoffed, eyes locked on Vanessa. “Please. She doesn’t suspect a damn thing. Probably just not in the mood. You know how she is — always playing the ice queen.”

Fred snorted. “Why are we even bothering? Just crush Smith Royale and make up some juicy lie. People believe anything if it’s messy enough.”

Elvis didn’t turn. “Destroying her reputation is a bonus. The real goal is getting her br

    A young waitress, holding a tray of drinks, froze. Her eyes widened, fixed on the scene: Mr Thorne was on the plush rug, covering his mouth that was bleeding.To burly men lying broken, and another man, Jason carrying Vanessa in his arms, his face a mask of coldness.She stared at Jason, her gaze locking onto his grim expression for a split second, then her face went ashen. The tray clattered to the floor as she spun and ran out. She didn't know what happened here, but she wanted no part in it.Jason ignored her. He carefully made his way out with Vanessa in his arms, carrying her bridal style. She was still unconscious, but that was expected after what Clark Thorne had injected her with. But just to be sure, Jason made up his mind to call a doctor to check on her as soon as he arrived with her to the Smith Villa.Back at Smith Villa. The elegant lounge inside the sprawling home was quiet, except for the soft clinking sounds of teacups. It was around 11 PM at night, however Seraphin

    The words hit Thorne like a physical blow to the gut. Jason didn't seem like he was lying. His jaw, already aching from the punch, dropped to the floor. His eyes, seconds ago filled with rage, now widened in dawning horror, comprehending the depth of his miscalculation. This wasn't some clumsy waiter; this was him. The fiancé. The man Elvis had warned him about. The man who had been watching. The realization twisted Thorne’s features into something ugly, a mix of shock, fear, and impotent fury. He might have messed. If Elvis, and the whole Montgomery family were afraid of this guy, then that meant he was very dangerous. Just then, the heavy VIP door burst open, and two burly henchmen in dark suits rushed in, their eyes scanning the room. These were Mr Thorne's special security personnel, ex military men. "Get him!" Thorne shrieked, pointing a trembling, blood-stained finger at Jason, even as fear started to claw at him. His voice was a thin, desperate sound now. Seeing how Elvis

    A few seconds before Jason punched Thorne:Upstairs, the grin vanished from Elvis’s face. His eyes were now fixed on the monitor with an unmistakable surprised look.His eyes were widened in pure, unadulterated panic as the waiter pulled down his hoodie to reveal who he really was. "No... no way!" He felt like his eyes were betraying him to see Jason Wolfe. "What is it?" Fred asked, leaning closer to the monitor to see what his brother was seeing, however he didn't see anything other than Mr Thorne, Vanessa and the waiter who had now removed his cape. However the waiter was of less importance to him, because he didn't know who he was. But his brother knew who it was. That was Jason Wolfe, the person they were all trying to avoid for now, because they were afraid of him. Elvis got on his feet. He couldn't stay here, he had to leave.“Is something wrong?” Fred asked, now looking at his brother like he was looking at a crazy person for reacting the way he was. “Where are you going?”

    Mr. Thorne’s eyes traced Vanessa’s form as she walked away, his grin showing a hint of smug satisfaction. He leaned back on his seat and glanced at one of his waiters in the VIP area, saying, “She is a prize, isn’t she? The untouchable Vanessa Smith, CEO of a crumbling empire, striding through my carefully set trap like she still owns the world.” He chuckled softly, like he was swapping gossip with an old friend.The waiter kept his head down, the hood of his cape hiding most of his face. He wore a plain black uniform and gave a small, polite nod. His smile looked calm and professional, but underneath, his eyes were full of anger. His jaw was clenched so tight it hurt.It was clear he didn’t like Mr. Thorne. Not one bit.Mr Thorne however, didn't spare the waiter a look so he couldn't see how annoyed he was.Closing his eyes, Mr Thorne imagined Vanessa finally giving in. He savored the thought of her unraveling, her cool facade cracking under his charm, her having no control over he

    She paused, letting the meaning of her words settle.“I’m not one of your business assets, Mother. I’m your daughter.” Vanessa let out a sigh and said,. “Besides, we shouldn't talk about him, he is not here. This is not about Jason. I have standards, and even if I wasn't with Jason I would never do something like what you're suggesting, honestly,....” She shuddered in disgust. “I’m honestly disappointed that you, Mom, would suggest something like this. How could you?”Seraphina stepped back, her voice soft but heavy as stone. “Standards won’t save this family if you fail.”The room fell quiet for a second. Vanessa’s hands clenched at her sides, perfectly manicured nails digging into her palm. She was saddened by the fact that her mom would suggest she do something like this. It was as if treating her like an investment, and trying to get her married off to some strange rich men, and trying to get a payout, wasn’t enough.But now she was suggesting she degrade herself down and sleep w
