After dinner, Harper went straight to see Zane.

The two of them met in the small garden downstairs.

Zane had been traveling frequently and looked a bit tired. He had removed his makeup early, lying down for a facial mask and some rest.

“What’s wrong, Madam? You seem troubled,” he said, applying serum to his face while giving her a curious glance.

Harper’s thoughts were heavy. She nodded and said seriously, “Can you tell me about Avery?”

Hearing the name, Zane paused briefly. “Avery… what about her?”

“She came back to Elaris today. I feel she and Chase are very close… so I wanted to ask you,” Harper said, kicking her feet absentmindedly.

Zane put the serum down, straightened, and looked at her seriously. “Avery and the boss… they’re probably childhood friends, more like siblings, actually.”

    Chase had no choice but to close his eyes.Seizing the opportunity, the girl’s gaze roamed freely over him—from forehead to brows, to eyes, to the bridge and tip of his nose… finally landing on his alluring lips.“What I want... is—”Before she could finish, she suddenly leaned in and kissed him. Chase felt a jolt of heat on his lips and opened his eyes in surprise.She held him tighter, lips pressed against his, mumbling softly, “I want you… to kiss me.”He had intended to push her away, but when his hands rested on her waist, it was as if they were ensnared by a spider’s web—he couldn’t pull away, couldn’t resist. He could only surrender.Harper tasted his lips, lightly sweet, but she wasn’t satisfied. She boldly extended her tongue, teasing past his teeth. He resisted at first, but eventually, her passionate insistence broke through. When she bit his lip

    Slipping inside, she was immediately enveloped in a thick, steamy haze.Squinting, wishing she had eyes that could see through the mist, she searched… and finally spotted his tall silhouette.She inhaled sharply, heat rushing to her nose. Almost—she thought—enough to make her nose bleed.Chase’s sharp eyes narrowed, picking up the strong scent of alcohol on her breath. The mist barely obscured the bright, silly smile on her flushed face—he immediately realized she had drunk too much.Quickly, he grabbed a towel to cover himself. But before he could speak, a pair of slender, delicate arms wrapped around his waist.The man froze. Dark eyes, deep as ink, scanned the figure clinging to him.The arms belonged to Harper, who had stumbled over and hugged him, her warm face pressing against his broad, fair chest with a blissful smile.Her soft lips brushed him unconsciously, somewhere between a peck and a playfu

    The grand, brightly lit ballroom was filling up quickly. The cheerful music mingled with the lively chatter of the guests, creating a vibrant, festive atmosphere.Handsome waiters weaved through the crowd carrying trays of fine wine and gourmet dishes.As soon as Harper returned from the garden to the ballroom, an elegant gentleman approached her to make conversation.She smiled politely, exchanged a few words, and then slowly made her way toward a corner of the room, keeping an eye out for Zane.Suddenly, a familiar voice called out behind her, full of admiration.“Harper, you look absolutely stunning tonight!”Harper turned to see Camden in a sharp, stylish suit, standing behind her.He studied her carefully, eyes wide with genuine amazement.“Thank you,” she replied with a polite smile, unconsciously folding her hands over her chest.Camden could see through her shyness. He gave a small, knowing smile and nodded

    Franky could feel the tension, like gunpowder in the air. He was a seasoned playboy; handling women, especially jealous ones, was second nature.He rose to his full height, approaching the two girls. He examined each carefully, as if performing a serious evaluation. Then, as he prepared to answer, he suddenly pinched the bridge of his nose, closed his eyes, and wore a painfully conflicted expression.“What’s wrong?” Avery frowned, a hint of worry in her voice.With his eyes still closed, Franky spoke, sounding utterly troubled.“I really regret coming with you today to try on clothes. I can’t handle this kind of test. I open my eyes and see you two, and it feels… criminal. If I told you what I’m really thinking, you might hit me…”Then, with his eyes still shut, a sly, slightly lecherous smile appeared on his lips.Avery immediately understood, her face lighting up with delight. “

    Everything in the dream had been so surreal.She wiped her tears. Somehow, she had actually cried…Looking at her pillow, damp from tears, she picked up the phone.“Young Madam, the boss wants me to take you to pick out some clothes,” said Zane.Harper lacked energy, her voice weak. “Forget it. I have plenty of clothes.”“Young Madam, the boss personally assigned this task. Please help me. You have to come,” Zane pleaded sincerely. Harper didn’t want to put him in a difficult spot, so she reluctantly agreed.“Fine. I’ll be downstairs in two hours.”“Got it!”After hanging up, Harper remained lost in the dream’s aftermath.What was the relationship between Chase and Avery?The fact that she felt so unsettled meant…She was really jealous.From a psychological perspective, could she have feelings for him without realizing it?
