The nurse had just typed a message on her cell phone screen. Her thumb was about to press the -send- button, when suddenly the sound of rapid steps pounded the floor of the hospital corridor.

"No need to send it," whispered a sharp voice behind her.

The nurse reflexively turned her head. Her eyes widened at the sight of the figure standing there-Nora, with a cold face and piercing gaze.

"I'm just-"

Nora snatched the cell phone out of her hand. She read the text message that hadn't been sent, then quickly deleted it.

"Listen carefully," Nora said as she took out an ATM card from her small wallet. She held it out to him. "There's two million inside. Take it. But don't ever send that message to Samuel."

The nurse looked doubtful, swallowing hard. "But... Mr. Samuel paid me to find Mrs. Rebecca."

"And now I'm paying you to keep your mouth shut," Nora cut in quickly, her tone leaving no room for debate.

The woman disguised as a nun was instantly recognized. She looked down for a moment,

    As soon as they finished eating, Samuel didn’t give Rebecca the chance to stand on her own. He immediately rose to his feet and bent slightly in front of her.“Come,” he said, opening both arms.Rebecca frowned. “Come where?”Samuel smiled broadly. “Do you think I’ll let you walk on your own? Not a chance.”Before Rebecca could protest, Samuel had already lifted her into his arms. “Samuel! Put me down!” she exclaimed, a little panicked.“No,” Samuel replied casually, walking toward the suite bedroom door. “You’re far too precious to be walking on a hotel floor.”Rebecca glared at him in annoyance, but her cheeks grew warm. “What kind of reason is that?”Samuel lowered his head slightly, gazing into her face from up close. “The reason of a man who doesn’t want to let go of his woman.”Rebecca fell silent, her heart beginning to race faster.When they reached the bedroom, Samuel opened the door with one hand, then shut it again with his foot. He walked over to the large bed draped in th

    The auction was nearly over when Samuel glanced at Kevin, who was sitting at the back table.“Kevin,” he called softly.Kevin immediately approached. “Yes, Mr. Samuel?”Samuel glanced briefly at Rebecca, then back to Kevin. “You can go home. Rebecca will go home with me.”Rebecca frowned. “Samuel, I can go home myself with Kevin.”Samuel gave a faint smile. “No need. I’ll take you… and take you out to dinner.”Kevin looked hesitant. “In that case, I’ll take my leave, Mrs. Rebecca.”Rebecca nodded slightly. “Alright, be careful on the road, Kevin.”After Kevin left, Samuel stood and helped Rebecca up from her seat. “Let’s go.”Rebecca followed, still unsuspecting. But once they got into the car, she realized Samuel was driving in a different direction from the road toward the Castillo Mansion.“Samuel… this isn’t the way to my house,” she said suspiciously.Samuel glanced at her with a teasing smile. “It’s not. We’re going somewhere else.”Rebecca eyed him warily. “Somewhere else? Wher

    The ballroom lights were slightly dimmed as the MC took the stage with a wide smile.“Hello, ladies and gentlemen. Our charity auction is officially starting. The first item up for bid today is… a ‘True Love’ ring. This ring is made of white gold with genuine diamonds. The starting price will be three million.”Several guests began whispering to each other. Rebecca looked toward the stage, then glanced at Samuel.“A true love ring… seems interesting for a collection,” she said softly.Samuel smiled. “Interesting… for me to put on your finger.”Rebecca instantly shot him a sharp look. “Samuel, don’t start—”Meanwhile, the MC continued, “Do we have any bids higher than the starting price?”A loud voice from the VIP table rang out. “Five million,” said Zasco, raising his paddle.Rebecca was slightly surprised. “Five million right away?”Samuel glanced toward Zasco, a faint smile on his lips. “Six million.”The MC took note. “Six million from Mr. Samuel Wilson. Any higher bids?”Zasco rai

    The car carrying Rebecca and Kevin finally stopped in front of the Royal Hall Ballroom. The area buzzed with guests dressed in their finest attire. Cameras from local media were already lined up at the entrance. Kevin stepped out first and opened the door for Rebecca. “Careful, Ma’am.” Rebecca stepped out calmly, her elegant gown catching the light from the camera flashes. She offered only a faint smile before entering. Inside the lobby, Mr. Zasco was already waiting. The moment he saw Rebecca, his face broke into a wide smile. “Rebecca,” he greeted, striding toward her. “You look… extraordinarily beautiful today.” Rebecca returned a polite smile. “Thank you, Mr. Zasco.” Zasco stood before her for several seconds, his eyes scanning her from head to toe. “You know, today I don’t want to simply greet you. From now on, at this event, you’ll be my partner.” Rebecca blinked in surprise. “Partner?” “Yes,” Zasco replied casually. Without further explanation, he took Rebecca’s arm. “

    That morning, Rebecca had just arrived at the Castillo Group office. She had barely settled into the CEO’s chair—now her daily seat—when the phone on Kevin’s desk, her assistant, rang.Kevin picked it up quickly. “Hello, Kevin speaking from Castillo Group.”The voice on the other end was firm yet calm. “Kevin, this is Zasco. Please tell Rebecca I want her to attend the charity auction at ten o’clock this morning. There are some important guests I want to introduce her to.”Kevin was a little taken aback. “Ten o’clock? That’s less than two hours from now, Sir. Should I—”“No buts, Kevin. Just tell her. I want her there. Appropriate attire—it’s a formal event,” Zasco said, then hung up before Kevin could reply.Kevin sighed, then stood and knocked on the CEO’s door. “Mrs. Rebecca, sorry to disturb you. A call from Mr. Zasco.”Rebecca, who was reviewing some documents, looked up. “Oh? What is it?”Kevin stepped forward. “He’s asking you to attend the charity auction at ten this morning.

    That morning, sunlight filtered through the thin curtains of the hospital room, creating a warm atmosphere. Rebecca was packing a small bag on the chair, while Reno, who had just woken up, was still sitting on the sofa, rubbing his eyes.Samuel watched them from the bed. “Are you going somewhere?” he asked softly.Rebecca nodded with a smile. “Yes, I have to take Reno to school. He shouldn’t skip too often.”Reno immediately turned to his father. “But I want to stay here with Daddy.”Samuel smiled warmly. “You have to go to school, Reno. Smart kids study diligently.”Reno pouted. “Will I come back here after school?”Rebecca patted his shoulder. “We’ll see later, okay? Daddy also needs to rest.”Samuel looked at Rebecca with curiosity. “It’s fine. Come back after school if you can. Oh, by the way, you seem really busy now. Or is it just my imagination?”Rebecca was silent for a moment, then slung the bag over her shoulder. “I haven’t had the chance to tell you. I’m now the CEO of Cast
