Then he stopped.

His eyes had caught another faint reddish mark higher along her upper thigh.

The stillness between them deepened.

His hand moved instinctively toward the hem of her robe but stopped midway, suspended in the thick, fragile silence.

“Can I lift it?” he asked quietly.

“Yeah, Calvin but it’s just a minor scratch,” Cleopatra replied.

“I decide what is a minor scratch,” Calvin said in a low voice.

He lifted the rope slightly higher.

A deeper reddish scar appeared just above her knee.

  • THE COLD-HEARTED CEO'S REBORN LOVER    A Dangerous Game of Teasing

    “Sure if you insist, fairy,” Calvin replied casually.He took the plate from Lila’s hands and set it neatly on the dining table before gesturing toward her seat. “You can go back and sit.”A ripple of quiet shock spread across the table.Everyone had witnessed it, the way Cleopatra had effortlessly taken control of the moment, bending the atmosphere to her will. Everyone except Katie, Guinevere, and Simon looked stunned.Guinevere’s lips curved into a thin smile.“I wonder why a guest would want to serve so desperately,” she said, her tone dripping with mock sweetness. “You should leave that for the maids. After all, a guest should remain a guest.”Lila’s brows knitted as she observed the hostility laced in Guinevere’s words.“Even if someone is a guest,” Lila said calmly, “there’s nothing wrong with lending a helping hand. It’s certainly better than sitting there wrapped in pride under the pretense of being a guest.”Guinevere scoffed, the sound sharp and dismissive.“Sometimes peopl

    “Mr. Calvin,” she said, tilting her head slightly, letting the sunlight catch her hair, “it’s such an honor to meet you.”Her gaze lingered a fraction longer than necessary, a teasing sparkle in her eyes as she extended her hand.Calvin’s gaze slid past her, locked on Cleopatra as he shook Lila’s hand once, firm but distracted.“The honor’s mine,” he said smoothly, his attention clearly elsewhere.“Please excuse me.”Calvin said smoothly.Without another word, he walked down the aisle and settled beside Cleopatra, the subtle authority in his movements drawing attention without effort.“Why didn’t you text me? You’re still going on this trip,” he asked, his tone calm but edged with curiosity.“I never changed my mind about not coming,” Cleopatra replied, her voice sharp and cold, her gaze fixed straight ahead.Calvin’s hand brushed lightly against the armrest as he leaned slightly closer. “You should be resting, not traveling. I’ve arranged a professional therapist for you,” he said, hi

  • THE COLD-HEARTED CEO'S REBORN LOVER    The Unexpected Arrival

    “Hello? Colder, aren’t you coming? We’re already settled in the jet,” Katie said over the phone, her voice carrying a playful impatience.Calvin stretched his leg onto the small stool before him, leaning back lazily in his chair. “So it’s already time to fly to Eban for the birthday celebration,” he replied coolly. “Go ahead and enjoy yourselves.”“But you promised you’d come,” Katie grumbled.“The project just started,” Calvin answered calmly. “I don’t think I can leave right now.”Before Katie could respond, another voice echoed faintly through the phone.“No, Cleo don’t put it there.”Calvin’s relaxed posture stiffened instantly.“What?” he asked sharply. “Cleo is going too?”“Yes,” Katie replied casually. “We’re all going.”There was a brief pause.Then Calvin spoke again, his tone suddenly decisive. “Tell the pilot to wait until I get there.”Without another word, he ended the call.Moments later, he strode down the hallway toward the guest room. Reaching the door, he knocked on

    “That’s another common symptom,” she explained. “During an episode, the patient can experience flashbacks or emotional fragments from the past. They may relive moments tied to the trauma without realizing where they are.”Calvin’s jaw tightened.“So you’re saying,” he said slowly, “something at that photoshoot triggered her past.”“Yes.”Julia’s voice remained calm but firm.“The camera flash, the pressure, the environment any of those could have acted as a trigger. When that happens, the mind responds with panic, and the body follows.”A heavy silence settled in the room.Calvin’s hand slowly curled into a fist at his side as the weight of her words sank in.“And if this happens again?” he asked quietly.Julia looked directly at him.“Then she will need support, patience and someone who understands what she’s going through.”Calvin’s gaze slowly shifted toward Katie, his expression darkening with a mixture of disbelief and restrained frustration.“Do you really not know about this?”

  • THE COLD-HEARTED CEO'S REBORN LOVER    The Price of the Spotlight

    For the past two days, Cleopatra had been completely absorbed in preparations for her very first shoot.Now she sat quietly in the styling chair, her posture elegant yet relaxed. The soft lights of the studio shimmered against the large mirrors, reflecting the careful work already done. Pheebs had finished her makeup not long ago, leaving Cleopatra’s features refined and luminous, every detail perfectly accentuated.Behind her, Jovita finished arranging the last strands of Cleopatra’s hair with practiced precision, her movements swift yet delicate until everything fell perfectly into place.Across the room, the photographer stepped forward, lifting his camera and adjusting the lens as he studied Cleopatra through the frame.A moment later, Jovita stepped back, her eyes lighting up with satisfaction as she admired her work.“All done,” she announced warmly. “You’re looking more stunning than ever.”Cleopatra’s lips curved into a soft smile at the compliment.“Thanks, Jovita,” she repli

    At those words, Calvin’s expression darkened slightly. His brows drew together as he stepped forward.“Doctor,” he said slowly, his voice firm, “what do you mean by that? Please explain.”The doctor adjusted his glasses.“Sir, the allergic reaction didn’t come from the coffee itself. It came from the cream mixed in it. If Miss Guinevere drinks coffee regularly, she should be aware of her sensitivity to dairy. It’s possible she simply made a mistake.”“With all due respect,” Guinevere snapped, her voice sharp despite her weakened state, “are you trying to say I’m lying? I truly did not know I had such an allergy.”Before the doctor could respond, the door suddenly burst open.“My baby! What happened?!”Emilia rushed into the room in a panic, her heels clicking hurriedly against the floor as she hurried toward the bed.She grabbed Guinevere’s hand, her face filled with worry.Calvin straightened slightly and greeted her politely.“Hello, Mrs. Emilia.”He paused for a moment before addin

    The elders drifted away toward Orion’s table, leaving the children to their own devices, the murmurs of the party fading into a distant hum. Anthony and Guinevere exchanged a brief glance, the space around them suddenly charged with unspoken words.“I work with Hawk actually, I’m one of the directo

    Pheebs’ soft laughter chimed through the room as she scrolled on her phone, her smile bright and smug.“Didn’t I tell you?” she said sweetly, tilting the screen toward them. “The internet is buzzing with Sabrina and Xander’s photos. Four days just four days and look at the traffic. Look at the sale

    One of the decorators’ hands tightened around Cleopatra’s shoulder, grounding her in the moment.“If Guinevere were even half this stunning, we’d all be doomed,” someone murmured from the shadows, their voice a mix of awe and reluctant relief. “Thank God she isn’t.”Joss’s smile faded into somethin

    Cleopatra stepped out of the taxi, slowly lifting her head as her breath caught at the sight of the towering INK Model skyscraper before her. Gleaming beneath the sky, its exotic design and flawless structure seemed to embody both elegance and ambition. For a moment, she simply stood there, mesmeri
