“Sunny?”

Angela’s voice slipped out before she realized it.

Hearing her name, Sunny let go of Leon and darted toward Angela like a little bird freed from its cage.

“It’s me! But Daddy saw you first.”

Angela and Sunny turned to look at Leon at the same time.

A faint smile touched his refined features, and as he walked toward them, there was a gentle warmth softening his whole presence.

“What a coincidence, Angela.”

Most people who weren’t close would call her Miss Bailey or Mrs. Turner.

Leon was the first to address her by name so directly.

Angela didn’t mind. She stood and said, “You’re here for dinner too.”

Leon nodded, his gaze briefly sweeping over the two sets of tableware on her table.

“Waiting for someone?”

“They’ve already left.”

Sunny chimed in immediately, “Then can Daddy and I sit with you?”

Angela still hadn’t properly thanked Leon for helping with Yuna’s surgery, so she answered at once, “Of course. Dinner’s on me.”

Sunny slid obediently into the seat inside.

Leon took the

    Donald tried calling Angela’s phone and realized he had been blocked.He handed Dolly to Zoe, then went downstairs and kept dialing Angela’s number obsessively.Angela sometimes put her phone on silent when she slept.So, he stopped calling and had the driver take him to Crestwood Heights.Security refused to let him in, so he went to Tim to buy a unit.Tim refused at first. Donald doubled the offer. Then tripled it. Tim finally agreed.But not long after, Tim called back, apologetically saying he could not sell after all.Tim was not the kind of man who turned down money. If he would not sell, it could only mean one thing—the Chairman of Hightide had forbidden it.That man was elusive and unpredictable. Donald did not even know when he had crossed him.Unable to enter Crestwood Heights and unable to buy his way in, Donald could only wait until dawn.Donald recognized Leon’s car.Thinking there was a chance Angela might be inside, he spread his arms and stepped forward, blocking the v

    Angela woke up and opened her eyes, staring blankly at the unfamiliar room in gray and white tones for three seconds.In those three seconds, three key thoughts surfaced.She had blacked out again. Alcohol was dangerous.Leon’s room. That eased her slightly.She was divorced now, with no fear of rumors.Angela let out a breath.She sat up and looked around for her phone.At some point it had been set to silent. There were more than twenty missed calls.All from the landline at Rosewood Manor.There was also a notification showing a transfer of one hundred million.So, the calls were from Donald?Since she had blocked his number, he used the Rosewood Manor landline instead.Was he calling to tell her the money had been transferred?That really was not necessary. She was not going to be grateful.Angela ignored the missed calls and messaged the workers at the packaging plant.She asked whether they had received notice to resume work.They all replied that they were already on their way t

    The car stopped in the underground garage.Leon walked to the passenger side, unbuckled Angela’s seat belt, and lifted her at the waist, carrying her toward the elevator lobby.Angela kept repeating the same line, “I’m divorced, did you know? Dr. Wright, I’m divorced!”“You’ve already said it eight hundred times,” Leon said helplessly.To others, divorce was simply a mutual decision between two people.But for Angela, it meant fighting with everything she had, blood and sweat alike. These past two months had not been easy on her.Leon did not know the password to Angela’s place.She had turned off the facial recognition feature earlier.With no choice, he set her down and took her fingers, trying them one by one.Five attempts, all wrong.The lock activated, forcing a five-minute wait before another try.Leon lifted her again and brought her to his place instead, gently placing her on his bed.Angela’s face was flushed, her fair cheeks tinged with color, her hair loose and scattered.L

    Angela frowned in displeasure.Donald wanted to express how he felt at that moment, but losing to Angela already felt humiliating enough.With his resolve wavering, the words that came out shifted as well.“Did what happened to Nina have anything to do with you?”Angela blinked, looking genuinely unaware.“What happened to her? Did someone beat her up? Or did she get a tumor? Is she dead?”Donald’s brows tightened. “Do you really have to be this vicious? What did she ever do to you that you hate her so much, to the point of finding men to ruin her?”Angela lifted her brows, a trace of unmistakable glee flashing across her face as she spoke.“She was ruined by men? Are you sure? If you’re sure, then I’ll laugh.”“She wasn’t ruined! I’m asking you.”“Why ask me? How would I possibly know whether she was ruined or not… When she comes back, you can sleep with her yourself and see. Then you’ll have your answer.”After saying that even more viciously, Angela got into a taxi and left.The suc

    Marriage was like brewing a cup of tea.At the beginning, it needed boiling water, scalding hot, poured into the cup, with fragrant leaves floating on the surface.As time passed, the water cooled, the leaves spread out, revealing their true form.In the end, the tea turned cold, the leaves sank to the bottom, and people walked away.Angela circled the lid along the rim of the cup, skimming off the foam on the surface. Her voice held not a trace of emotion.“You arrived faster than I expected, so the tea isn’t ready yet. I’ll have to trouble you to wait.”The moment Donald heard her call him “Mr. Turner,” a sense of discomfort and pressure welled up inside him.He said, “If you’re unhappy, then say it outright. Argue with me. Fight with me.”Angela was as calm as still water. “Haven’t I argued and fought with you enough? Did it ever work?”“Angela, I never thought we would end up like this.”“Yes, that’s right. What you thought was to ruin my reputation, leave me homeless, make me des

    A sharp pain stabbed through Donald’s chest as he clenched his phone tightly.The bodyguard continued, “Miss Fox’s mouth and face are swollen. Her hair was a mess, she was filthy all over. She was caught in the rain and has a fever, barely conscious. She kept stopping us from calling the police…”Donald asked, “What did the doctor say after examining her?”“A female doctor said there were no signs of sexual assault…”From the bodyguard’s description, it sounded as though there might have been.But the doctor said there wasn’t.Dark clouds settled heavily over Donald’s mind.With the downpour, the scene had already been destroyed, and there were no nearby cameras. Tracking anyone down would be difficult.“Do as Nina says. Don’t call the police. If anything happens to her again, none of you should expect to return to Northhaven.”After hanging up, Donald couldn’t help wondering—had Angela arranged this?He dismissed the thought almost immediately.Just like at the SR private dinner, Ange
