32nd floor, inside Christan’s room.

Grandpa Bryan sat on the couch, studying him closely. “Alright, spill it. Why did you lie to bring me here?”

“Grandpa, I want you to meet someone.” After a moment’s thought, Christan looked up and answered.

“Someone? Interesting, because I also have someone I want you to meet,” Grandpa Bryan replied with a sly smile.

“You want me to meet someone too? Here?”

“Yes. She happens to be staying in this hotel as well.”

“In that case, how about tonight we both invite the people we want each other to meet and have dinner together?”

“Sure! It’s a deal.”

...

Back in room 3502, not long after they arrived, Xavier was called away for an urgent matter by one of his subordinates.

Before leaving, he reminded Serena that he might not be back for dinner and told her to call the r

  • The Art of Revenge   Final

    One Year Later. En Route to the Exclusive Clinic.Xavier's grip on the car's armrest was so tight, it looked like it might snap off. His knuckles were as white as snow, and his heart was hammering in his chest like a jackhammer. His breathing? Shallow. His mind? In full panic mode. His assistant, Kurt, looked like he’d been thrown into a storm without a life raft. The poor guy was clearly way out of his depth.“Faster, Kurt!” Xavier barked, practically leaning into the dashboard as if that might make the car go faster. “My wife’s in labor! The sooner we get there, the better!”Kurt, flustered and way too green for this kind of chaos, glanced nervously at the road. “I—I’m going as fast as I can, sir! But the traffic’s... it’s insane!”“Not fast enough!” Xavier groaned, his eyes wild with panic. “Do you understand what’s happening? My wife is about to give birth! I need to be there—like right now! The universe is clearly conspiring to keep me away! Do you have any idea how that feels?!”

    Two years later. Inside the Blaze family estate.Henry lounged on a recliner in the garden, lazily sipping tea with a folding fan in hand.Beside him, Xavier sat upright with a stern expression. He asked in displeasure, “Dad, didn’t you say a year ago that once your health recovered, you’d come back and take over X Group?!”“You brat, what’s the rush?! X Group will be yours eventually. Isn’t it good for you to get familiar with the business ahead of time?!”Xavier’s face darkened. “Back then, when your health was poor and I had to take over in an emergency, we agreed I was only managing it temporarily! Now that you’ve long since recovered, you keep making excuses not to return to the company. What exactly are you up to?!”Henry smiled slightly. “After surviving a serious illness, I suddenly had a revelation. Before, all I cared about was X Group, the rise and fall of the family. But after walking through the gates of death, I realized—nothing matters more than enjoying life!”“You’re

    Serena’s pupils contracted sharply. A spark of hope flickered in her heart.That’s right! At the time, her father hadn’t yet become the mayor of Vernon.If the man claimed to be the mayor’s secretary, then he may not have been her father’s secretary at all!She quickly stepped forward and grabbed Dr. Beckett’s arm, eagerly asking, “Dr. Beckett, do you remember that man’s name?!”“I think was Matt… Matt something.”“Matt?!” Her eyes dimmed slightly. “Are you sure it was Matt?”Dr. Beckett frowned and rested his chin on his hand, trying to recall carefully.After a moment, he suddenly slapped his thigh. “I remember now! His name was Matt Rivera!”“Matt Rivera?!”“Yes!” Dr. Beckett nodded firmly. “His name was on the badge. I was being cautious and checked it very carefully at the time.”“Are you sure you’re not mistaken?”“Absolutely not!”Serena finally let out a long breath. “That man was not my father’s secretary—he never was! My father’s secretary is named Matt Lewis! Uncle Matt h

    After a long silence, Dr. Beckett finally sighed deeply. “Alright… I’ve buried this in my heart for so many years. Looks like I can’t keep it hidden any longer. I might as well tell everything. In fact, I was planning to come forward with it myself in a few years.”Hearing this, Serena’s heart leapt. She immediately asked, “Back then, why did Gaius suddenly commit suicide?”Dr. Beckett fell into thought, then slowly began recounting the past.“About my cousin’s suicide… I bear some responsibility too.”“Many years ago, I was still in high school. I was passionate about medicine and dreamed of becoming a doctor. I studied desperately every day, pouring all my energy into academics. Naturally, I didn’t care much about anything else. Eventually, some classmates gave me nicknames—‘bookworm,’ ‘slob’…”“At first, I didn’t mind, but over time, they became more aggressive. They started ambushing me after school and beating me for no reason.”“I was weak and timid. Every time, I could only tak

    Xavier looked down. “That’s all the report says for now. If we want to know more, we’ll have to wait.” “I can’t wait another second! I’m going to call my father!” She pulled out her phone. Xavier quickly grabbed her hand. “Don’t rush. If you call Uncle Bram out of the blue like this, he’ll be upset. And if he really has nothing to do with it, your questioning could damage your relationship.” “Then what should I do?! All I can think about is Gaius’ death. If I keep waiting, I’ll go crazy!” Seeing her furrowed brows, Xavier thought for a moment and asked, “Have you seen Dr. Beckett here recently?” “Yes! He was invited to attend the hotel’s grand opening.” “As far as I know, most guests invited to the event are given a three-day complimentary stay. During those three days, they can enjoy all services for free. Unless something urgent comes up, most don’t leave early.” Serena quickly understood, “You mean… Dr. Beckett might still be staying at the hotel?!” “Exactly.” “But he’s t

    At that moment, the man buried his face into the crook of her shoulder. He didn’t say anything, just held her tightly.So tightly, as if he wanted to meld her into his body.Serena didn’t speak again.The quietness between them was surprisingly peaceful, and she didn’t have the heart to disturb this moment of happiness and tranquility.Until—she felt something wet on her shoulder, and her heart skipped a beat.Her lips moved a few times before she couldn’t help but softly ask, “Are you… crying?”“I am not!” Xavier denied stubbornly.But his voice clearly carried a choked-up tone.She didn’t call him out on it. Instead, she gently reached up and stroked his hair. “So the fearless Xavier Blaze can cry too?”“I am not crying!” the man muttered, then pretended to casually wipe the corner of his eye. “This is called tears of joy!”&ldquo
