Leo's car pulled up in front of Moira's house. Tasha sat smugly in the passenger seat, savoring the last few seconds of comfort.
"Could you check if she's there for me?" Leo said coolly, without getting out of the car.
Tasha snapped back to reality, forcing a sweet smile. "Sure, wait here!"
As she stepped out, neighbors cast curious glances her way.
Tasha's sense of pride swelled. She adjusted her hair and sashayed into her house.
She knew full well Sunny wasn't there.
But to keep up appearances, she wandered through the house, asked a servant, and then returned to report to Leo, "She's not here, I'm afraid."
No sooner had she finished than Leo's sports car sped off like a gust of wind.
Tasha stood rooted to the spot, stunned.
Leo's haste made her seethe with frustration.
What was so special about Sunny that Leo cared so much? She stamped her foot in rage.
Leo's mood had turned chaotic. If Sunny wasn't at M

Third Person's POVRichard sat grimly at home, awaiting news. Upon hearing the report, he let out a cold sneer. Could Emily truly betray him?Evidence suggested she had accessed the files in his office—what did she know, and to what end?Was someone backing her?Blake was the only name that came to mind.Emily was head over heels for him. If Blake promised her something in return, she might very well turn against her adoptive father.But didn't Blake despise her?He had uncovered her role in the construction site accident.How could he forgive such a grave mistake?If Blake had indeed forgiven her and recruited her for his schemes, he was a far more formidable adversary than Richard had anticipated.Richard's thoughts soon turned to the photos of him meeting Bianca that had been leaked. Had Emily also been behind those?If she was working for Blake, could she have followed him when he left home to mee
Third Person's POV"How dare he scheme behind my back and make so many decisions without my knowledge!" Richard fumed.Emily nodded and replied, "Alright, if he asks me out again next time, I won't go."Richard turned and entered his study. Emily brought the coffee to his desk and left.Her heart was pounding—she was anxious about whether Richard had noticed her searching through his things.Richard picked up his cup to take a sip but suddenly narrowed his eyes. He spotted a silver needle lying on the desk beside his documents. His face instantly changed.Who had touched his desk?Apart from Emily, there was no one else at home.How could she have touched his things?Richard was inherently paranoid to an extreme degree.He had deliberately placed a needle in his stack of documents to prevent anyone from tampering with his belongings.Previously, the needle hadn't fallen out, but today it lay on the de
Third Person's POVCatherine's beautiful eyes flickered. "Why do I always feel like you've found a solution? Can you share it with me? Why does it need time to prove itself?"Blake's face froze for a moment. Then, he reached out and whispered into Catherine's ear, "Catherine, don't be too clever right now, okay? There are things I can't tell you yet, but trust me, it's not because I don't want to."Catherine rolled her eyes. "Oh, really? You might as well tell me. I can keep a secret. If you tell me, I won't breathe a word.""I know you can keep it secret, but I don't want to worry you. It's better not to tell you for now," Blake said affectionately.Catherine chuckled. "If that's the case, then fine. I trust you're doing the right thing. Your decisions are always wise.""Are you doubting your husband?" Blake's handsome face contorted.Catherine was only teasing him. After all they'd been through, she knew Blake well enough to trust h
Third Person's POV"What are you laughing at?" Cedrick's brows furrowed. If she didn't explain herself soon, he'd lose his temper.Was she getting too out of hand now that he couldn't keep her in check?Jessica quickly stifled her laughter and shook her head. "Nothing. I just find it amusing that you're jealous of him. Your jealousy is misplaced, though. Leo and I have always interacted like this. Sure, we've done some publicity stunts for work before, but we really don't have any chemistry.""Is that so? But I can't help feeling you two care for each other a bit too much." Cedrick still felt uneasy."Leo's my boos and friend. When he heard the news, he checked in on me—it's what friends do. Please, don't be jealous," Jessica said, feeling a sense of helplessness. The truth was, she and Leo had a perfectly innocent relationship.Cedrick knew full well there was nothing between them, but love could make a man irrational."Forget
Third Person's POV"Why are there so many people?" Jessica was still puzzled.Cedrick leaned back and analyzed calmly, "If my guess is correct, this must be another attempt to tarnish your reputation, and by extension, Leo's.""How despicable!" Jessica clenched her teeth in anger.Anyone would be furious to be manipulated like this, and Jessica was no exception.Cedrick gently stroked her long hair and comforted her, "Don't be angry. I'll settle this score.""How are you going to do that? You don't have any business dealings with them, do you?"Jessica realized that Nebula Media had not only targeted her but also indirectly provoked Cedrick."Rest assured, I'll find a way to make them remember this lesson. Trust me."Cedrick didn't think Jessica needed to know the specifics of the business world. He wanted to shield her innocence.Jessica's lips curled into a smile as she nestled against his shoulder. "It feels great to have someone backing me up."Cedrick let out a soft chuckle, his
