His sudden outburst made Lily flinch slightly, her body tensing at his tone. She turned her face away, swallowing the lump in her throat before snapping back, "You really don't know? Then explain to me how LM got my work!"

Her voice cracked with anger and frustration. She didn't even need to hold the real jewelry in her hands to recognize her designs; just a single glance at those pictures online was enough to know they were hers. They had been stolen. And for that to happen, it had to be someone close to her, someone who had access to her sketches and drafts. Her chest tightened as her thoughts turned toward David. He was ruthless in business, but... could he really stoop this low? She wanted to believe he wouldn't. And yet, she couldn't think of anyone else to blame.

"Your designs?" David repeated, his brow furrowed. "You're a jewelry designer?"

Lily's heart skipped a beat. She had slipped. He didn't know she was Aurora, the mysterious designer behind their brand's success. To him,

Couldn’t imagine she still let him whatever he wanted with her body after he had slapped her without any apology. Always same excuse .. her heart and body betrayed her.

  • My Husband's Affair, My Anniversary Gift    Chapter 284

    In the middle of their quiet conversation, Professor Albert gently guided her toward the inner hallway.“Come,” he said, smiling to himself. “You’ve come at the perfect time. There’s someone I want you to meet.”Riyana followed him, her steps slow, her mind still heavy with doubt. They stopped in front of his office door. Albert pushed it open.“John,” he called out casually.Riyana froze.John was sitting on the sofa inside, one leg crossed over the other, his phone in his hand. When he looked up and saw her, surprise flickered across his face. He stood up immediately.“Hi, Riyana,” he said, clearly not expecting to see her there.Her heart skipped once.“Hi,” she replied, still trying to process this coincidence.Albert looked from one face to the other, amused.“Oh?” he said lightly. “You two know each other?”“We were classm

    Nick watched her quietly for a while. He was still tense, still shaken by what he had seen earlier.After a few minutes, he leaned closer and lowered his voice. “Is he always this… on edge?”Riyana didn’t stop typing. “No,” she said simply. “He’s just angry with me. That’s why.”She finally looked up at Nick and gave him a small, reassuring smile. “You don’t have to worry. He’s actually an easygoing person.”And that was true.Jabco only showed that side to her.With others, he was calm. Polite. Even warm when needed. In the office, most of the staff had never seen his temper. They knew he was strict. They knew he could be ruthless when it came to work. Deadlines, results, discipline. He never compromised there.But outside of work anger, he was controlled.Only Riyana ever saw the storms.Because she was the only one who handled him directly. The only on

    “Mr. Grey,” Riyana said quietly.She looked at him politely, professionally. That calm tone made his anger lose strength against his will.“I already handed you my resignation letter,” she continued. “I’ll brief him on your work and schedule. I’ll leave in a few days.”Her words landed hard.Jabco clenched his teeth. She spoke as if nothing had ever happened between them. As if that night meant nothing at all.“Riyana,” he said slowly, voice tight. “Do you really want to test my patience?”He took a step closer. “Don’t you think we have something to talk about?”Riyana pressed her lips together. Her hands were clasped so tightly that her fingers hurt, but her face stayed calm.“Nick,” she said, turning slightly. “Please leave us for a moment.”Nick nodded so fast it was almost funny and rushed out of the office. The door click

    Morning light crept into the room through the half-open curtains.Jabco blinked slowly as he woke up.For a few seconds, he didn’t move. His body felt strangely light, rested, the way it used to feel years ago when sleep came easy. His head didn’t hurt. His chest felt calm. Too calm.He sat up and rubbed his temple, trying to understand why he felt like this.Then everything from last night came rushing back.Her face. Her warmth. The way she was in his arms.His head snapped to the other side of the bed.Empty.The space beside him was cold. No trace of her. No sound. No movement.His heart dropped.“Riyana?,” he muttered to himself.He clearly remembered holding her.He swung his legs off the bed and stood up, the sheet slipping from his waist. His chest felt tight now. He wasn’t a man who lost control like that. Never had been.He had been with women before. Enough times. But he had alw

    Her hands clutched at his shirt, her nails digging into his skin as he lifted her, pressing her against the cool wall."Fuck, Riyana," he groaned, his lips trailing down her neck, sucking, biting, marking her as his. Each touch, each kiss, was a claim, a declaration of ownership that sent a rush of heat through her veins.She arched into him, her body responding to his touch with a hunger that matched his own. Her skirt hiked up, his hand slid between her thighs, finding her already wet, her core throbbing with anticipation."You’re mine," he snarled, his fingers dipping into her, rough and relentless.He fingered her with a urgency that left her breathless, her moans echoing off the walls as her body trembled against his.He shrugged off his coat and tossed it aside like it no longer mattered. The sound of it hitting the floor was soft, but to Riyana it felt loud, final. Then his fingers moved to his shirt. One button, then another. He didn’t ru

    The traffic light turned red.The car stopped.For a long moment, there was only silence and the low hum of the engine. Jabco leaned back in his seat, eyes closed, head tilted slightly to the side. Riyana thought he had fallen asleep.Then he spoke.“How was your date?”His voice was calm, too calm. Almost careless.Riyana’s hands stiffened on the steering wheel. Her chest tightened. For a second, she forgot to breathe.So he saw her.He saw her with John.She turned her head just a little, enough to look at him, then quickly looked back at the road as if the traffic light was the most important thing in the world.“It was good,” she said slowly.That was all.There was no reason to explain. No reason to tell him it was not really a date, that she went only because she was tired, because she wanted to forget things for a few hours. He was her boss. Nothing more.Jabco’s jaw tightened
