  Gloria looked stiffly at Patrick in her arms who was asking for help.

  The others froze on the spot, watching the strange scene.

  "Is that Patrick?" Stewart said skeptically, and everyone present shared the same doubt.

  Sean's face suddenly darkened, and he said sternly, "Go! Get the pack doctor."

  The pack doctor came, but Patrick refused to cooperate. He clutched Gloria's clothes with both hands and refused to let go.

  Thus, all the people present looked at Gloria.

  "He only listens to you now," Sean said calmly.

  Under the gazes of everyone in the room, Gloria compromised and coaxed the child-like Patrick.

  After giving Patrick a checkup, the pack doctor said, "Alpha Patrick seems not to remember the past."

  Sean was also a medical worker, so he instantly understood what the doctor meant. "Are you saying that he lost his memory?"

  "No. Alpha Patrick's IQ and cognition are now no different from that of an eight-year-old

      Gloria drove back. Sitting in the driver's seat, she laughed at herself for having an illusion. Otherwise, how could she see Patrick?  Suddenly, she realized something.  Gloria stepped on the brakes, her body leaning forward instinctively. She stared forward.  The next moment...  She unbuckled her seat belt, got out of the car, and limped forward.  "Patrick! Where have you been? Everyone is worried about you. Do you know that?" Gloria shouted at him with her coarse voice. Her chest heaved violently.  Patrick seemed frightened and stared at her blankly.  "Gloria," Patrick explained, "Hank said that if I behaved, you would come to see me. I waited for a long time, but you didn't come. I miss you so much!"  He looked at a loss and was about to cry. "Have I done something wrong?"  Gloria's heart skipped a beat. An indescribable pain spread through her heart and she was caught off guard.  Before she could say anything, Patrick

      The secretary suddenly stood up. "Sorry, Mandy. Our president said that he wanted to meet Miss Carter alone to seek cooperation this time."  Gloria, Mandy, and the other representatives from the Carter Group all looked at each other in confusion. What a strange request it was!  Mandy was about to say something, but Gloria stopped her. "Take the others out of the meeting room."  "But..." Mandy was worried.  Gloria looked at Mandy with determination in her eyes. "Mandy, you know how important this cooperation is to me."  It was important to her, as well as the Carter Group.  "Let's go," Mandy said to others and took the lead to leave.  In the conference room, only Gloria was left.  In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, a man stood silently.  Gloria changed her expression and put on a standard smile. She walked over and stopped three meters away from the man. It was the best social distance. "Hello, Mr. Norman, nice to see you.

      Time ticked by. Gloria raised her wrist and glanced at her watch for the third time. Patrick's eyes were fixed on her.  The ringing sound of the phone broke the strange atmosphere in the room.  Gloria pressed the answer button.  She asked, "Have you arrived?"  On the phone, she could hear Sean's voice together with hurried footsteps. "I can't go. I'll leave Patrick to you for the time being."  Gloria became anxious and called out, "Wait a minute. Leave him to me for the time being? Isn't Hank there?"  "Hank is not free. All his men are busy now."  Gloria laughed out of anger. "What do you mean by that?"  Sean sneered and asked Gloria, "He was shot in Italy. Don't tell me you think it was a coincidence."  "What do you mean?"  "Stewart will stay in Hammond Group. Hank and I are going to Rome. Think about it. He is not short of bodyguards, but why did he still get shot?" Sean said quickly.  Gloria was silent. Although

      The bedroom door suddenly opened. Gloria looked up and saw that Patrick had a poker face and returned with a blanket in his hand.  Without a word, he threw the blanket onto the floor beside her bed and unrolled it silently.  "What are you doing?" She was even more puzzled and asked.  Patrick lay down on the floor and turned his back to her deliberately.  "You are not allowed to sleep here," Gloria said coldly.  Patrick remained silent. Gloria shouted, "Patrick, go out!"  Patrick got up from the blanket and turned to yell at her, "Just send me away tomorrow! I don't care! Don't even think about chasing me away tonight!"  Gloria didn't expect that he dared to yell at her.  "Gloria wants to drive me away. She is sick and no one will take care of her. She is unreasonable!" Patrick shouted again.  Gloria was stunned and didn't know what to say. It was the first time that the eight-year-old Patrick had shouted at her.  She look

      Gloria locked herself in the bedroom for a long time. When she went out, drops of blood were on her pale lips, which betrayed her struggling heart.  Everything returned to the past.  Gloria walked to the living room expressionless and lay on the sofa in silence with a blanket.  Patrick stood uneasily aside. He looked helpless and pitiful.  "From now on, you are not allowed to enter the bedroom," Gloria said coldly.  Patrick panicked. He asked anxiously, "Gloria, did I do something wrong? So, you don't like me anymore."  Gloria looked down at the hem of her clothes in his palm. Mandy's words echoed in her ears.  She reached out and pulled back her clothes and walked back to the bedroom.  She left behind a ruthless back for Patrick. However, when she turned her back to him, she began to shed tears.  Why did she cry?  She didn't want to think about it, nor did she have the strength to think about it.  The night ended s

      Gloria walked home and was thinking about something.  While passing a corner, she was suddenly pulled into an alley by someone.  With no street lights in the alley, it was dark. A few seconds later, Gloria saw several rogues. They surrounded her with baseball bats in their hands.  She became alert and leaned against the wall. "What do you want?"  The rogues looked at each other, laughing and ignoring Gloria's question.  "Do you know me?" Gloria asked calmly and ignored their ridicule.  "You are the eldest daughter of the Carter Group and a rich lady. We certainly know you," one of the rogues said.  "Whoever paid you to come here, I will pay double." Gloria tried to come up with a solution in her mind.  "Miss Carter, you are half crippled. Do you think you can run away? The person who paid us did not intend to kill you. He just asked us to cripple one of your hands." The head of the rogues laughed.  Gloria's mind was a mess.

      "I want to see her." Gloria made a decision and said in a low voice. It was not a plea, but an order.  Dexter was tactful and knew that Gloria would not give in.  He nodded. "I'll take you there."  Dexter was clear that Gloria wanted to see Lillian immediately.  Since she asked him out at midnight with a single phone call, it meant that she had made up her mind to handle this mess.  Also, Dexter knew clearly that Gloria would no longer trust him as before.  He did not bother to say more, but led Gloria to a small apartment that he owned.  When the doorbell rang, Lillian opened the door and said in a sleepy voice, "You're back. Was the thing so urgent? Was your boss so bored?"  "She is not bored, and she is here to see you."  A cold voice made Lillian sober in an instant.  "Why are you here?" Lillian blurted out in surprise.  Lillian did not change much and was even more attractive than before.  Gloria enjoyed

      Gloria looked at Lillian meaningfully.   "You threaten me with the Carter Group?"   "Gloria, sue me. By then, the whole world will know that the Carter Group is an empty shell. You will lose everything. Then, can you still question me with such an attitude?" Lillian hated Gloria so much.   She thought with hatred, 'Gloria had once been so humble, yet she lived a better life than me after three years!   She is so low and cheap. How can she surpass me?'   "You are actually good at nothing! You inherited your father's property. Everything you own belonged to your family, and you robbed it from them. Gloria, you are not only lowly but also vicious. You don't even let go of your family!" The more Lillian spoke, the more emotional she became.   Dexter's hand was trembling, and he slapped Lillian. "What nonsense are you talking about? Miss Carter has said that she wouldn't pursue the matter. Why are you still making a scene?"   Lillian suddenly went mad

    Luana fought with all her might, her slender hands clawing at Cline's arms.Her nails bit through his skin, drawing blood, yet he held on relentlessly."Cline!" Luana roared in fury, finally dropping her Dorothy act and staring him down as Luana.Hearing his name from her lips, Cline's eyes reddened further. "You finally admit it..."Luana sneered. "So what if I do?"Cline froze, his bloodshot eyes slowly meeting hers.Her face was an icy mask, devoid of emotion, filled only with contempt.This cold Luana left him at a loss.As he opened his mouth to speak, Luana turned her head, her calm eyes reflecting Cline's pale face."Did you really mean it when you said you loved me?""Yes..." Cline's heart leaped at the chance to connect, and he nodded eagerly, about to confess a decade-old truth.But Luana cut him off, her voice ice-cold, "If you loved me, why wouldn't you wait until our contract ended before break

    "Does it hurt?" Luana silently asked herself.Once, she had known pain—excruciating, soul-crushing agony that had left her curled on a cold floor, voiceless and desperate.It had been a pain that stripped away all hope in this man before her, eroding her very will to live. It had been so severe that even in her final moments, when she'd longed for a glimpse of him, he'd refused even a phone call.That pain was no mere physical wound. It was a despair that seeped into her very being.It was after enduring such torment that she had finally seen Cline for what he truly was—a man utterly ruthless toward her.Yet now, here he was, holding her and asking if she hurt. The irony was bitter, almost laughable.With a cold, expressionless face, she said, "The five minutes are up. Let me go."But Cline, who had finally held the person he'd obsessed over, had no intention of releasing her so easily.He held her tight and said, "

    Cline held tight to her arm, as if he'd never let go unless Luana gave him a chance to speak.Luana, brows furrowed, sighed and relented, "Five minutes, right here."Cline's cold gaze shifted to Dorian, who shot him a glare before turning to Luana."Five minutes, then home," Dorian warned.Luana nodded meekly, "Okay."Only after Dorian strode into the villa did Luana turn to Cline, her voice cool and impatient."Well?"In Dorian's presence, Luana had been the picture of obedience, just as she used to be with him.Now, though, Cline saw a change in her—calm, distant, and edged with impatience.This new version of Luana only deepened the ache in his chest.He longed to reach out, to brush his fingers against her face, but as his hand rose, she flinched violently, stepping back as if struck.Luana stared at Cline's right hand, her pupils suddenly clouded with fear, as if the ghosts of past trauma had res

    Luana nodded in agreement and turned toward the stairs.But after just two steps, she froze, her fingers brushing the banister.Slowly, she turned back, her voice hesitant. "Clarissa, I came back as Dorothy... What about Gehrmann?"Clarissa had guessed that Luana had returned as her sister Dorothy the moment she heard Dorian call her by that name.Clarissa's smile was warm, reassuring. "I won't say a word to him or Cline. Your secret's safe."Relief flickered in Luana's eyes. "Thank you," she whispered, the word soft as a feather.As Luana walked away, Clarissa watched her retreating figure, worry knotting her brow."Is this luck or a curse?" she thought, "Leaving Cline only to be trapped by Dorian."At the car, Luana opened the passenger door and slid in."Home at ten seems early," she ventured, her tone tentative.Dorian glanced over, his indifference palpable. "Make it eight, then."Luana's lips twitched

    Clarissa watched Luana's fingers tighten around the phone until her knuckles whitened. "When I first saw those messages flooding in, I tried luring him out myself—posed as you, planned to bring the cops. But instead of catching a creep, I got..."She trailed off, the memory of the man in the café still prickling her nerves.A man as cold and heartless as Cline—why would he cling to memories of Luana like this?"Anyway," she shrugged, "he never showed. Guess some ghosts stay buried."Luana's voice was a whisper. "These things... they should've been my fight. Not yours."Clarissa cut her off, "If it were me in this mess, you'd do the same. So quit with the thanks already."Luana nodded meekly, her lashes drooping as she glanced back at the phone screen.The mystery gnawed at her—Mr. Night's messages reeked of obsession, yet he hid in plain sight. Why?She couldn't fathom it, and frankly, didn't care

    "I had no choice but to pull a dumb move—I seduced Gehrmann and took Naomi's spot as his bedwarmer," Clarissa said flatly, her voice echoing off the brick walls."I thought I could use him to get back at Cline. Turns out I was dumber than a bag of hammers—Gehrmann wouldn't lift a finger against Cline for any woman." She kicked at a pebble, watching it skitter into the shadows. "By the time I figured that out, he wouldn't let me walk away."Clarissa shifted her weight, catching Luana's profile in the dim light."But don't you worry, Luana. I ain't falling for Gehrmann's charm. This world's got exactly one good man left—Albion. And he's six feet under."So, I won't be that girl anymore—the one who pours her heart out for every little kindness, even when it's not worth it."Mentioning Albion again made Luana's eyes dim as if the light behind them had been switched off.She lowered her lashes, hiding the sorrow pooling th

    Third Person's POVLuana tightly embraced Clarissa, hoping to alleviate her pain.Clarissa, however, patted her back with a smile and said, "It's alright. After finding out the truth, I was devastated for a while, but then I pulled myself together. I installed surveillance cameras and recorded every moment of their infidelity, which I sent to my lawyer."I won the lawsuit, but I couldn't get the house back. I could only recover the mortgage payments, the money I spent on him, and compensation for emotional distress..."However, what I didn't expect was that someone would expose Albert's bigamy online, ruining his reputation. His company fired him, and no other major firms would hire him. As far as I know, his current salary isn't even enough to cover the mortgage. Plus, his mother has cancer, which is why he keeps begging at my door."Clarissa's voice turned cold as she continued, "He thinks I'm still the naive woman I once was, that if he kneels a

    Clarissa took a deep breath, opened the bedside table, and took out a marriage certificate, handing it to Luana."You two weren't entirely meant to miss each other. At least he kept his promise from when you were young and married you."Seeing the marriage certificate, Luana's eyes welled up.She reached out and slowly unfolded it...Name: LuanaName: AlbionBeside them was a composite photo of the two, dressed in white shirts, with a red background, their faces beaming with happiness.When Luana was eighteen, she had asked Albion, "When are you going to marry me?"Albion, engrossed in a book at the time, looked up and playfully tapped her nose with his pen, saying, "When I'm capable of giving you happiness."Luana pouted, dissatisfied, "But when will that be?"Albion held up his book and replied, "After I've mastered all this knowledge and become someone worthy, then I'll marry you."Luana rested her chin

    Last time, it was her negligence that failed to keep Albion by her side. This time, she was determined to do everything in her power to protect Luana.Clarissa raised her hand and gently patted Luana's shoulder, hoping to offer some warmth.Time ticked by, and they remained in the same position until a man in a gray suit approached.Clarissa looked up at him, noticing his gaze fixed on Luana, and her tension grew.Before she could inquire about his identity, the man stepped forward and gently pushed Luana's head with his slender fingers."It's ten o'clock. It's time to go home..."Luana, recognizing Dorian's voice, didn't lift her head, her lifeless eyes fixed on the floor.Dorian frowned at her silence, then bent down slightly and spoke patiently, "Dorothy, come home with me."Luana raised her weary head and said, "I don't want to go home today..."She wanted to stay and support Clarissa, to quietly live for herself for
