Cecelia lowered her head, not daring to look at him. Her heart pounded hard against her chest, beating so loudly she was sure he could hear it. She hadn’t realized he had already reached her. Now she had been caught red-handed.

Her stomach grumbled softly in embarrassment, and her face flushed hot.

“How long have you been standing here?” Evans asked coldly.

His tone made her heart sink.

He was clearly displeased. The argument with Rachel had already put him in a bad mood, and now knowing that s

    Mitchell walked into her office tiredly, massaging her shoulder after three hours of sitting in the meeting room.She was the project director of the company, and days like this always drained her.“Again…” she muttered when her eyes landed on a flower bouquet and some packaged snacks on her desk.She didn’t need to think twice to know who it came from.“He is really determined to ruin my mood every day,” she said with a sigh as she walked toward the table.She stared at the items for a moment. Then she picked up the flower, brought it close, and sniffed it.A soft hum escaped her lips at the pleasant scent.She slowly placed it back on the table and opened the snack package.A small smile unknowingly curved on her face on seeing that It was her favorite—yogurt parfait and a burger. She stood there, staring at them, when her assistant walked in.“I’m sorry, ma’am. I will remove them now,” her assistant said quickly, nervously stepping forward to take the flower and snacks to throw th

    “How could you think of living peacefully without me, Dad?”The voice came again as the young man walked closer, a gentle smirk on his face. But his eyes were fixed on Felix.“Jeremy… I told you to wait for me in the car,” Henrietta said weakly as she looked at him.She had been staying at Jeremy’s apartment these past few days, and he was the one who drove her to the mansion. She had told him to remain in the car.“You did,” Jeremy replied calmly, “but I also have something to say to him.”His gaze shifted from Felix to Scarlett, and his smirk widened when he saw her in a wheelchair.There was satisfaction in his eyes.Scarlett noticed it immediately.“What are you staring at?” she snapped angrily without thinking.She already felt ashamed of being in a wheelchair, and now he dared to mock her.“Who the hell are you? Get out of here!” she ordered.Jeremy raised a brow.“What position do you have in this family to send me out?” he asked calmly. “You are just an illegitimate child, so

    “Shut up! You didn’t mention to me that you had a girlfriend back then!” Grandfather’s voice trembled with rage. “And when Henrietta rejected the marriage proposal, I let you be. I didn’t continue forcing you,” he added, hitting his walking stick hard against the ground.His body trembled.He could never have imagined that his own son would exchange the two children.And now his excuse was that he had been forced into the marriage.Grandfather remembered clearly.Felix had never told him about Beatrice.He had only refused the marriage at first, but because the marriage would bring great profit to the family, Grandfather had pressured him.However, when Henrietta herself strongly rejected the marriage, he had let Felix be.But then, one day, Felix came to him and said he would do everything to make Henrietta marry him.Grandfather had thought his son had fallen for her.But now…It was clear that was not the case.“And that made it worse. How could she reject me?” Felix suddenly shout

    “W… what are you talking about?” Felix asked, breaking the silence.Henrietta smiled briefly at his response, as if he truly didn’t know what she was talking about. Then the smile disappeared.She raised her hand and landed a hard slap across his face.Slap.The sound echoed through the room, shocking everyone.Their eyes widened as they stared at Henrietta, completely speechless.“You dare to ask me that?” Henrietta said coldly, her chest rising and falling with anger. On her way here, she had thought she would stay calm, but seeing Felix’s face and him acting ignorant made her lose control.“You slapped me…” Felix muttered in disbelief.“It is nothing,” Henrietta replied sharply, “because I will make sure you pay for what you have done.”She raised her hand again and slapped him a second time.Slap.“You…” Felix whispered, stunned, as he placed his hand on his cheek.In all their years of marriage, he had never seen Henrietta hit anyone—let alone him.“What is going on? How could yo

    A week later.The car came to a halt at the parking lot of the Whitemere ancestral mansion.“Easy,” Scarlett snapped in frustration at her new caregiver as she helped her out of the car and settled her into the wheelchair.She had been discharged from the hospital but was told to return for checkups from time to time. For now, she would be staying at the ancestral mansion.“I still can’t believe this,” Scarlett muttered under her breath, unable to accept that she was now sitting in a wheelchair and dependent on someone to move around.Her heart ached deeply, and it showed clearly on her face as the caregiver pushed her into the house.She wanted to scream.To pour out all her frustration.But she didn’t know how… or who to direct it at.Her father had not been in a good mood these past few days. She hadn’t seen her mother since that day. Even today, when she was discharged, her mother—who should have been there—didn’t come.None of her other family members came either.“Why didn’t any

    The following morning, at a psychiatric hospital. Mrs. Whitemere stepped inside with slow, steady steps. Her face was pale, but her eyes were sharp. There was no confusion in them anymore—only pain… and something darker. Since the psychiatric hospital was in another city, she had booked a flight immediately after leaving Lucien. And now, she was here. She couldn’t wait to see Beatrice. A nurse walked up to her immediately and asked, “Are you here to see a patient?” “Yes, but I want to speak with the director first,” Mrs. Whitemere said softly. The nurse hesitated for a moment but nodded and led her to the director’s office. Mrs. Whitemere’s face remained straight as they walked. Lucien had told her to meet the director first; otherwise, they wouldn’t allow her to see Beatrice. But meeting the director wasn’t just to gain permission. She had another plan in mind. It took only thirty minutes for her to finish discussing with the director, and now she was being led to Be

    "Are you sure you can act today?" Lucien asked Elowen on the phone. "I can ask Evans to excuse you," he said softly as he stood outside the police station.He had just seen the video she sent him, and he knew she was hurt. It might affect her acting today."Don't worry, I can," Elowen replied quiet

    “Let’s go in, dear,” Mrs. Calderwood said when they got out of the car.Elowen looked up at the tall hospital building in front of them with slight confusion.

    The following day at the movie shooting location.“Cut!” the director shouted, clapping his hands.

    Outside the hospital building stood Lucien, Evans, Cecelia, and Elowen. Elowen had been allowed to go home since she only had a panic attack and was now completely fine. The evening air was cool. Cars passed by, and the city noise felt distant compared to the heavy emotions standing between them
