“Was it you who secretly manipulated the orders at Cici’s father's company?”

Adela stared coldly at the man across from her, her voice emotionless and tone frigid.

Robbie had never seen Adela like this before. He studied her features for a few seconds, then suddenly chuckled.

“You actually look quite a lot like someone I know.”

As someone who controlled much of New York’s security power, he had of course encountered Liam Walton before. Once you met Liam, you’d never forget his nearly flawless, striking appearance. He typically wore a lazy smirk, with a casual, rakish air. Robbie had only seen him lose his temper once—an image that left a deep impression.

Adela’s features bore a strong resemblance, though her brows were a bit softer, less aggressive, and without that overwhelming pressure.

“Just answer me. Don’t try to change the subject,” Adela said coolly, her mood soured from the earlier conversation, her patience running thin.

“It was me. Why? Did I cause trouble for Cici’s father?

  • Reclaiming His Runaway Baby Mama   375 The Cold, Detached Observer

    After Layson finished following her account, he closed the page without another glance. Social media really held no interest for him. He’d rather spend that time looking at Adela.Lowering his gaze to the girl nestled in his lap—her ears red to the point of dripping blood—he leaned in, his deep voice raspy and teasing near her ear. “Aren’t you going to follow me back? Hmm?”His words ignited Adela’s shame to the max. She practically bristled. “I told you it’s not my account! Now you followed me, you’ll scare the poor ‘stranger’ half to death…”The more she spoke, the more guilty she sounded. She was sure this account was officially done for.A low chuckle rumbled in Layson’s chest, vibrating against her back like a purr. It sent a jolt of electricity down Adela’s spine from the tips of her ears to her toes.She regretted replying to that comment so impulsively. Determined to escape, she tried getting up. But he held her in place like a vice. After some effort, she finally broke free a

    Adela sat stiffly on his lap, unsure whether she should move or stay still. Her hand clenched around her phone, a sheen of sweat forming on her palm.She didn’t dare open the screen in front of Layson, so her eyes darted around aimlessly, eventually landing on his computer. It was just his email, but she quickly looked away—afraid she might see something confidential. She turned her head and buried her face in the crook of his neck, breathing in the cold, clean scent that clung to him.Layson responded to someone on the phone with a short “Mm,” then hung up and placed the phone casually on his desk. One hand was still on the mouse as he said in his usual calm tone, “Came all the way here just to keep me company? I thought you were upset about the rumor.”“I was right there when it happened. Throwing a fit over something like that would be unreasonable.” Adela's voice was muffled against his neck.The phone felt uncomfortable in her hand, so she placed it face-down on the table. With b

  • Reclaiming His Runaway Baby Mama   373 The Real Girlfriend Clears the Rumors

    Adela clicked on the trending topic and skimmed through the comments. Most were written by Lucy’s fans trying to control the narrative; even the official fan club had come out to deny the rumors. However, her studio remained silent, which made gossip-hungry netizens skeptical.As long as the name Norman Group’s heir was involved, people would naturally dig up every ex-girlfriend he had ever dated. It seemed the public had an insatiable appetite for messy love triangles involving rich CEOs.The buzz around this was clearly hotter than yesterday’s scandal involving the young actress Janet—probably because Janet’s story didn’t involve a third party.Adela stared at the gossip tied to her own life. It all felt surreal. Utterly absurd.Still, on a whim, she opened her barely-used X account and left a comment under the entertainment gossip account: “The big CEO doesn’t even know this woman. He was obviously waiting for his girlfriend! She was just a few steps away!”The moment she hit send,

    Adela was waiting when her phone suddenly pushed a breaking news alert. She had glanced at it absentmindedly—until the headline stopped her cold:“Top Actress Lucy in Secret Romance? Male Lead Suspected to Be Norman Group’s Boss!”Her mind had yet to process it, but her finger had already tapped on the article.Two fairly clear photos accompanied the headline. The background was unmistakable—Nightfall’s signature architecture. From the angle, actress Lucy wore sunglasses and a fiery red coat, standing across from Layson. He had one hand in his pocket, the other holding a cigarette, smoke curling in the air. But his gaze wasn’t on her—instead, it was directed past her, looking straight behind.The second photo showed two vehicles, license plates blurred, leaving one after the other.Adela felt a wave of absurdity crash over her. It was so ridiculous she didn’t even know how to respond. She closed her phone immediately, not wanting to see another word of this nonsense.They had been tog

    Adela sipped her drink while casting a mildly probing look at Cici.“I saw the news too,” Cici replied breezily. “I mean, fans can say whatever they want, but real or not, if it is true, fans can only give their blessings…”Cici said it with a light heart—and she meant it. Could fans truly control their idols’ lives?Any rational fan knew the answer: absolutely not.Since it was impossible, why bother stressing over it? That was just self-inflicted misery.After lunch, the two strolled while chatting. Adela bought a bouquet from a little flower seller and returned to the office, already having a few people in mind to join the drama project.That afternoon, she delivered her team list to Carlton. He glanced through it casually.“I’ll take care of the arrangements. You should call the production coordinator ASAP—the sooner we sync, the better.”The production team was indeed in a rush.“Designer Adela, would you be available tomorrow morning to meet the lead actresses?
