The private VIP lounge of the nightclub was filled with the boisterous laughter of Mark’s business associates, accompanied by the heavy, pungent smell of alcohol hanging thickly in the air.

They had invited Mark that night for one reason—to persuade him to sign the latest joint venture between their company and Harrison Corp. But Mark, who had yet to make any decision, responded to their advances with nothing but cold indifference.

    The private VIP lounge of the nightclub was filled with the boisterous laughter of Mark’s business associates, accompanied by the heavy, pungent smell of alcohol hanging thickly in the air.They had invited Mark that night for one reason—to persuade him to sign the latest joint venture between their company and Harrison Corp. But Mark, who had yet to make any decision, responded to their advances with nothing but cold indifference.“Mr. Harrison, once you sign our joint venture agreement, I guarantee that Harrison Corp’s profits will increase by thirty percent.” Jacob raised his glass, inviting Mark to toast.Mark lifted his own glass but deliberately refrained from drinking. He knew perfectly well that Jacob’s business dealings were far from clean. Just to celebrate the planned signing of the project, the man had even hired several attractive women to seduce him.Mark, however, had no interest in any of them.Th

    Abigail suddenly felt a wave of heat wash over her body. It wasn’t a fever. Her body temperature had simply risen so sharply that sweat began to dampen her skin. She had tried closing her eyes and lying back down, but sleep refused to come.Eventually, she sat on the edge of the bed, intending to take a sip of water. But the glass she had left in her room was completely empty.Abigail opened the drawer and glanced at the time on her phone. More than an hour had passed.She wondered if everyone had already returned to their rooms. She only wanted to make sure she wouldn’t accidentally run into Ian, Mark, or Lily—especially after Lily’s sharp warning and threat in the hallway earlier.Slipping her house slippers on quietly, Abigail picked up the empty glass and made her way to the kitchen. She opened the refrigerator, filled her glass with cold water, and drained it in one go before filling it again.That was when she remember

    “High school,” Lily answered quickly, trying to put an end to Ian’s suspicions before he could ask anything more. “But we weren’t particularly close because we were in different classes,” she added, hoping to make her explanation convincing.“That’s a shame. I was actually hoping to learn more about Abby from you,” Ian said as he casually took another sip of his wine. “How does it taste?” he asked, glancing at Abigail expectantly.Abigail, who had been holding her breath the entire time, slowly nodded. “Mmm... pretty good?” she replied hesitantly, making Ian chuckle.Without thinking, Ian reached over and gently ruffled the top of Abigail’s head as though she were a little girl.“You’re adorable. Is this your first time drinking wine?” he asked, with no intention of teasing her.Mark, on the other hand, let out another derisive snort from his seat.

    Ian gently laid Amora down on the bed. He was about to take off the little girl’s shoes when Abigail quickly stopped him.“Let me do it,” Abigail said softly. “I need to clean her up first. She’s been sweating quite a bit all day.”Ian nodded in understanding. “All right, then I’ll head to the wine cellar. You’re not going to break your promise, are you?” he asked, putting on an exaggeratedly accusing look.Abigail chuckled and nodded. “I’ll join you after I’ve cleaned her up and changed her clothes.”“All right. I’ll wait for you by the pool,” Ian said before turning around and walking away.“Okay. I’ll meet you there,” Abigail replied with a nod.Ian left and closed the bedroom door behind him. He headed toward the back kitchen and was about to open the door leading to the wine cellar when it suddenly swung open from the

    The car Ian was driving finally pulled into the amusement park parking lot. Amora was practically bouncing with excitement, unable to wait another second to jump out and try all the rides.“You’re... really coming in with us?” Abigail asked again, still looking uncertain.Ian’s words at the breakfast table that morning had been bothering her ever since. Although Abigail had tried not to take them too seriously, Ian’s extra attention toward her and Amora still made her feel awkward.“Am I not allowed to come with you and Amora?” Ian asked in return.He then turned toward the back seat, where Amora was sitting.“Sweetheart, should Uncle just go home?” he asked, putting on an exaggeratedly disappointed expression.“Mommy... Uncle Ian said it’s been such a long time since he went to an amusement park. Why can’t he come with us?” Amora asked her mother with adorable innocence.“Mommy isn’t saying he can’t come, sweetheart, but—”“Then let’s go! We don’t want to run out of tickets for the r

    “Do you think Ian really likes Abigail?”Mark faintly caught Nora’s voice coming from the kitchen, where the two middle-aged women were washing the dishes.“Seems like it,” Diana replied honestly. “The last time I saw him seriously interested in a woman was seven years ago.”“Mark, are we staying here another night, or are we going home?” Lily gently touched Mark’s arm as she realized how intently he was listening to the conversation coming from the kitchen.“It’s the weekend. I want to stay one more night,” Mark answered flatly. Then, as if remembering to soften his tone, he asked, “Would that bother you?”Lily forced a stiff smile and slowly shook her head. “No. If you want to stay, I’ll stay with you.”“Do you have something else to do?” Mark asked, making sure, a trace of concern creeping into his voice in case Lily had another engagement.In truth, Lily had an important appointment with someone today. But there was no way she could leave Mark alone at Nora’s house without keeping
