In the airport VIP lounge's adjacent restroom, Luana's fingers trembled as she turned on the faucet. Cool water washed over her palm.

She adeptly reapplied makeup before a foggy mirror, her cheeks now faintly rosy instead of their usual pale.

A light dusting of powder and a touch of lipstick revived her old brilliance.

As she capped her lipstick, the frosted glass door burst open.

A tall figure, exuding an aura of cold hostility in a tailored black suit, entered.

His chiseled face and sharp eyes pierced her, sending a chill down her spine.

Cline strode forward, his presence heavy with menace.

Without a word, he seized her wrist and dragged her out.

Luana's pupils contracted in shock at his sudden move. She immediately struggled with all her might.

Yet, against Cline, her resistance was like a gadfly shaking a tree. His fingers clamped tightly around her wrist bones. No matter how she writhed, he held her fast, unyielding

    Cline's words hit Luana like a rusty knife to the heart. Her lashes trembled violently, but she quickly lifted her chin and retorted in a voice colder than ice, "Mr. Moriarty, I am a married woman now, living a stable life. Your harassment is truly disgusting."She deliberately emphasized the word "married," each syllable sharp as a nail.Cline felt an invisible hand crush his chest, each breath drawing a sharp pain.As he struggled to speak, Luana delivered another blow. "My husband is waiting for me. Kindly release your dirty grip."Her gaze was like a venomous dagger, piercing straight into his eyes."What am I to you if he's your husband?!" Cline's voice rose, trembling on the brink of collapse. His bloodshot eyes welled with unshed tears. "Am I just a toy to be summoned and dismissed at will?!""A former client," Luana turned away, her voice echoing like a cold tomb. "And even that connection should be severed now.""A former cli

    Clarissa froze, surprised that he knew not only that Luana was alive but also about her plan to settle in England with her.Recalling Luana's instructions, she quickly denied, "Luana passed away. How could she go to England with me?"Gehrmann, unfazed, replied, "Cline knows everything. No need to hide anymore."After a moment of shock, Clarissa asked him, "Even if he does, please don't tell Cline about our trip to England."Gehrmann's warm expression dimmed, and he fell silent, his gaze lingering on her luggage.Clarissa, noticing his stare, gave a faint smile and said, "Gehrmann, thanks for these three years. We might not meet again. I hope you find your true love and settle down."With that, she loaded her luggage into an SUV, waved goodbye to Gehrmann, and got into the car.Watching the car vanish from sight, Gehrmann felt a strange discomfort.No more meetings... He stood rooted to the spot, then took out his phone and called Cline.***When Clarissa arrived at the villa, Luana h

    As their relationship deepened, Gehrmann embraced it without hesitation.A divorced woman?So long as she wasn't a Mrs. Moriarty, his family wouldn't care.Gehrmann snapped back to the present, stepped out of his car, and walked over to Clarissa.He snatched the cigarette from her hand, stubbed it out, and tossed it into a bin. "How many times must I tell you? Smoking's bad for you."Clarissa had thought that coming to see him in the daytime would irritate him, but to her surprise, the first thing he said was to tell her not to smoke.She'd planned a nonchalant "Let's break up," but now found herself hesitating.Gehrmann took her hand and led her toward the villa. "You're so eager to see me—craving my touch?"Clarissa's fleeting warmth faded at his remark. "No, I wanted to—"Before she could finish, he turned, hooked her chin, and kissed her deeply.The kiss left Clarissa breathless. She pinched his wa

    There were moments of genuine warmth between them.Yet, Cline would occasionally fly into a rage and leave, only to treat Luana with cold indifference for extended periods.The reason eluded him, and he dared not inquire. Thus, their five-year relationship oscillated between harmony and discord.When Cline decided to terminate the agreement, Luana refused any compensation, even returning the money she had received.This act was her way of asserting that her time with him was never about financial gain.On the surface, Cline showed no reaction, but when he stumbled upon Luana's belongings at the mansion, he immediately had her called back.He intended for her to retrieve them, but she declined, decisively severing all contact.Cline was unsettled. He called repeatedly, only to be met with her deletion of his contact information. This left him in a daze.Later, under the mistaken belief that Luana had found a new sugar daddy, he

    He tilted his head back and swallowed the red wine in one gulp. His Adam's apple rolled violently, and the wine tears on the glass slid into his palm, as if someone were silently weeping.Gehrmann watched Cline, the once-indifferent man who had crushed traitors' fingers with silver cufflinks, now clutching the wine bottle as if it were a lifebuoy in the water. He felt a lump in his chest.Just as he was about to persuade Cline again, Russell walked in, his leather shoes scraping the copper Moriarty family crest on the threshold."Mr. Moriarty, I've found the truth about Miss Hammond..." Russell, not expecting Gehrmann to be present, suddenly gripped the strap of his briefcase tightly, and his voice stopped abruptly.Cline tapped his empty wine glass with his finger, signaling him to continue. The blood on the bandage around his sleeve had already congealed into a dark brown color.Russell poured the materials from the Manila envelope onto the bar c
