Third Person's POV
"Don't get involved in this for me. Those people—they're dangerous, the kind you don't want to cross," Sunny said, recalling the woman's agility and menace.
She was highly skilled and didn't look like a good person either.
Such individuals were reckless and terrifying. They were desperate people. Getting involved with them would really end in mutual destruction.
She didn't want Leo to seek revenge for her. She just hoped not to get him entangled.
"You think too little of our people." Leo snorted.
Sunny stared at Leo's focused, handsome face as he tended to her wounds.
His brow was dotted with sweat despite the spring chill. Was it worry for her or tension from touching her injuries?
"Leo, I'm not doubting your abilities. I just don't want you to get dragged into danger with me. Promise me you'll stay out of this," Sunny said gravely.
Leo narrowed his eyes. "A man who can't protect his own woman&m
Third Person's POV"Go ahead!" Jessica laughed, covering her mouth."You and Catherine are friends?" Harley noticed her role as Catherine's bridesmaid and guessed they were close."Yes, we're bestie!" Jessica's tone turned affectionate when mentioning Catherine."I see..." Harley paused, then asked, "You were about to say something too, right?"Jessica nodded. "I heard Nebula Entertainment is courting you. Planning to switch companies?""Sent by Leo or your own curiosity?" Harley smiled faintly."Pure curiosity!" she explained hastily."Can I pass? I haven't decided yet." Harley shrugged politely but kept his distance.Jessica grew awkward. "Sorry for the intrusion!""No apologies needed." Harley's gentle smile eased the tension. The atmosphere turned stiff again."Let's not fuel any ship when we meet the press, shall we?" Harley broke the silence.Jessica's eyes lit up. "Lucky guess! I was thinking
Third Person's POVLeo saw right through Sunny's thoughts—she was such a fool.Did she really think breaking up would solve everything?He was both angry and helpless, yet couldn't bear to scold her.After all, to truly love someone, it takes immense courage to say "let go."He knew Sunny wasn't just bluffing; she might actually leave him alone in despair."Don't mention breaking up so casually. Got it?" Leo's voice deepened, each word carrying unshakable resolve.Sunny felt flustered and didn't dare to speak further.She treasured this rare moment alone with him—if the day of parting ever truly came, at least she could comfort herself with the memory of having had him.Leo brought in a bowl of oatmeal yogurt and a glass of water, sitting opposite her and watching intently as she ate.Sunny looked up to find him leaning on the table, chin resting on his arm, his gaze locked on her, making her cheeks fl

Third Person's POV"I know. If she were the real culprit, Richard wouldn't have kidnapped you to force her to confess. She is guilty, but not enough to deserve death. Don't worry. Blake and I are already aware of this. We won't let your mother take the fall while the real killer remains free," Leo said.His words brought slight relief to Sunny."I'm truly sorry. I don't know how to face you now," Sunny said, overwhelmed with guilt. She felt unworthy of Leo's love, being the daughter of a sinner who should atone for her mother's crimes.Leo's eyes darkened, but his hold on her didn't waver. His voice, however, turned colder. "Let's not talk about this now. Let's go home first. Your hands are injured and need treatment."Warmth surged through Sunny. At this moment, she felt utterly helpless and anxious, yet Leo didn't scold or abandon her. Gratitude and emotion filled her heart.Olivia had indeed turned herself in at the police station. Shortl
Third Person's POVSunny hastily raised her hand to shield her face. At that moment, a black sedan screeched to a halt beside her.The door flew open, and Leo's anxious face appeared in the doorway...Sunny felt certain she was hallucinating—hunger and exhaustion were making her vision blur. How could she be seeing Leo's face?"What are you waiting for? Get in the car!" The man's voice was urgent and pained.She snapped to attention, her eyes widening. In the next instant, a large hand yanked her into the vehicle.The black sedan shot into the traffic like an arrow released from a bow and vanished at the end of the street.At this moment, a man sat down opposite Olivia."Your daughter is safe. It's time to fulfill your promise," the man said coldly.Olivia's taut nerves finally relaxed, and she nodded. "Alright, I'll go with you now."Just then, her phone rang—it was Richard.She answered the ca
Third Person's POV"You're quite detached, unlike Nick. He's still stuck in that mess," Richard remarked, casting a sidelong glance at Nick.Emily feigned surprise and said, "You actually have a thing for Catherine? What's so great about her? She just puts on an act of being innocent...""Stop talking nonsense! Just eat." Nick interrupted sharply.Emily fell silent but smirked inwardly; it seemed Nick was serious this time.Catherine... she couldn't help but feel envious.Midway through the meal, Richard's phone rang.Seeing the caller ID, he frowned.The moment he answered, his expression turned grim, and he hurriedly excused himself to his room.Emily tensed—she had heard a woman's voice on the other end of the line.Nick also paused, staring after his father.She continued to eat as if nothing had happened, but inside, she began to scheme—it seemed Richard was finally receiving the call he'd
