The Fairbairn family, Liana—the cherished daughter: a broken betrothal right after her first meeting with her fiancé, Lucas. The Fairbairn clan rises in arms, their influence echoing throughout the city, vowing retribution for their daughter's slight. But fate has a curious way of playing its hand as Liana has a chance encounter with the man behind the man: Meyer Sterling, Lucas's enigmatic elder brother. Whispers in the alleys tell of a man shrouded in mystery, the aloof and obsessive overlord of Hong Kong's underbelly, a man you dare not cross. Amidst the gentle drizzle, Liana meets the fierce and untamed man with a tender smile. "Hello, I'm Liana," she says. A silent vow echoes in her heart: Lucas, if I cannot be your wife, then I shall be your sister-in-law. Months later, on a chance street encounter, Lucas greets her with mockery and sneers: "Are you stalking me? Still haven't given up on me?" But from behind her, a sharp and chilling voice slices through the wind, "Be respectful to your sister-in-law!"

Chapter 1: The Broken Engagement
In the city of Hong Kong, May always brings incessant drizzles.As evening descends, the rain ceases its gentle patter, leaving the air dense with a thin mist. Even the wild roses by the hotel entrance seem to droop, dampened by the weather's melancholic mood.In the hotel's private banquet hall's rear garden, Liana Fairbairn leans against the veranda's wall, her gaze fixed on the incessantly talking handsome man before her, a glint of impatience shimmering in her eyes.“So, you get it, don’t you? I could never take a liking to you, let alone marry you. No matter how our engagement came to be, I advise you to dispel any thoughts of marriage with me,” says the man, named Lucas Sterling, reputedly a highly esteemed physician.Liana doesn’t know much about him, just that the sole tie binding them together is a prenatal betrothal—a painfully cliché situation.Weary from standing, Liana shifts her weight, her ankles aching. With an ethereal sigh, she murmurs, “Understood.”“And don’t you d

Chapter 2: The Fairbairn Family’s Fury
Around the pavilion, dense curtains of rain hung from the eaves, like natural veils wrapping Meyer Sterling in their midst, adding a sense of oppression to his already formidable presence.As Liana approaches, a faint metallic tang of blood tickles her nose amid the moist air.Meyer, accepting a towel from his bodyguard, dries his hands with deliberate slowness, occasionally glancing at Liana Fairbairn through the drizzle.Adorned in a dark green, cinched-waist sleeveless gown, the damp fabric clings to her shoulders and neckline, tracing the perfect curve of her collarbones. Her gaze, composed and unflinching even as she steps over a bloodstain diluted by rain on the cobblestones, reflects the depth of a tranquil lake.Meyer's eyes retreat from her, placing the towel down. “What do you want?” he asks in a low timbre.Lucas, brashly seated opposite him, opens with a complaint, “Big brother, I want to call off the engagement, but she’s clinging to me. What should I do?”The nerve of hi

Chapter 3: A Flaw in Taste
At 10 p.m., the grand chandelier of the Fairbairn family living room dimmed to darkness, leaving only a soft, amber glow from a floor lamp in the corner.Liana retreated to her bedroom on the third floor, sliding open the French windows to let in a breath of moist air.The night was deep, the distant sky veiled in a gossamer of grey mist, serene and cool.With a contemplative gaze, Liana leaned against the window frame and pulled out her phone to open a search page.Search keyword: Meyer SterlingA second later, the blank page displayed a message: Sorry, no web pages were found related to "Meyer Sterling.""Wow, quite the mystery!" Liana murmured, tapping her lips thoughtfully, her interest piqued.Just how domineering was the overlord of Hong Kong? And how eccentric?There were many rumors about him in the city, but her first impression of Meyer seemed to deviate from the gossip.Her thumb brushed over the screen, picturing the man with a powerful presence and a proud, aloof demeanor

Chapter 4: Why Weren't We the Ones to Be Betrothed?
With one foot tapping the ground, Liana swiveled on the barstool, glancing over her shoulder.Amidst the chaos, the raging man continued his tirade, eyes bloodshot, his demeanor teetering on the edge of frenzy.The wooden door he had kicked open hung precariously by a single hinge, its magnetic catch snapped off.Liana's gaze drifted lazily, piercing through the half-open door to the private room where a familiar silhouette caught her eye.Meyer lounged on the curved sofa, one arm casually resting on the back, the other bringing a cigarette to his lips, exhaling plumes of smoke.His posture was relaxed, his wildness untamed.The man's yelling and fury seemed to have no effect on him.The swirling smoke veiled Meyer's well-defined features, leaving Liana with a tantalizingly unclear view that only stoked her curiosity further."Is that man really Meyer Sterling?" Winston murmured, shaking a cocktail in his hand as he and Liana peered in the direction of the private room.In vast Hong K

Chapter 5: Make Room for the Day After Tomorrow
The compartment lapsed into a brief quiet, punctured by Liana's utterance.Meyer responded to her probing question with silence.Yawning with a languid grace, Liana's eyes, glistening with a muted sheen, stole a glance outside.What kind of man was he, truly?He was plastered with labels aplenty, yet Liana surmised none truly suited him.Her phone rang suddenly from her pocket.Regaining her composure, she noted the caller ID—it was Tessa, whom she had left at the pool hall.She glanced at Meyer and brought the phone to her ear, "What's the matter?"Tessa's voice, frantic and loud, filled the car, "Where have you run off to? The finance office is empty! Come back quickly; everyone's waiting for you to join the drinking. We're not stopping till we're all utterly wasted."Alongside her questioning, Liana faintly heard the 'thud thud' of a door being kicked.How to describe it? It was exceedingly awkward.She had accidentally toggled the speakerphone while bringing the device to her face

Chapter 6: Money Talks
Liana regarded Morgan impassively, plucking a banana from his hand, peeling it leisurely as she inquired indifferently, "Got your living expenses for this month sorted?"Morgan's demeanor tightened, he snuffed out his cigarette and stood up abruptly, wiping his hands on his pants, and asked with grave seriousness, "Dad, who are we looking into?"It wasn't hard to see why Morgan was so spineless; ever since he had plunged into his cyber obsessions, Liana's uncle had been furious at his lack of ambition and cut him off financially.For about five to six years, Morgan's everyday expenses were funded solely by Liana.With money, indeed, you become the 'father'.Liana looked at him, mirth touching her lips. She took a bite of the banana, then nonchalantly transferred 500,000 to his phone, "Meyer."Morgan took his seat again, a grin cracking across his face as he received the transfer alert, thanking his 'dad' cheekily.He then booted up an internal search engine adeptly, asking, "Which 'Yu

Chapter 7: Do You Know Meyer Sterling?
Serena's words reverberated through the living room, casting an oppressive weight in the air—a sense of dread emanating from Julian Fairbairn.His eyes narrowed, the depth of his gaze held an icy resolve. "So, it seems Lucas never had any regard for our Fairbairn family!"At this, eager to show his support, Adrian promptly bobbed his head eagerly. "Julian's right. Lucas is just asking for it."Julian shot Adrian a cool glance, then added, "I've looked into Lucas's history these past few years. His record is clean, especially when it comes to relationships. Why terminate the engagement now, right before Liana's graduation?"Serena, caressing her polished nails, sneered. "Didn't he say he would visit tomorrow? If he can't present a valid reason, this matter won't be settled."The family gathered in the living room, brainstorming strategies to bolster Liana's stance.It was then that Liana, who had remained silent for a while, shifted into a more relaxed pose on the couch and said unhurr

Chapter 8: As It Turns Out, Lucas Has an Ailment
Cedric's piercing gaze settled on Liana's face, and after several seconds, he shook his head cryptically. "No, I don't know him. Meyer Sterling is shrouded in mystery in Hong Kong, appearing as rarely as a dragon shows its head. Countless people have tried to photograph him over the years, to no avail. What's your interest in him?"Liana plopped into a chair beside her, gaze falling to the swelling on her palm, and spoke distractedly, "Just curious. If it wasn't for the broken engagement, he would've eventually become my brother-in-law."At her words, Cedric gave her an odd look. "In need of a big brother? Aren't the three you have at home enough?"Ah, jealousy arises.Liana met Cedric's gaze, her lips sealed in silence.The siblings sat quietly in the rest area for a moment. Cedric lit a cigarette and, between exhales, warned, "Liana, don't get too curious about Meyer Sterling. He's not a good man."Liana watched the aura of violence that clung to Cedric, swallowing the words that al

Chapter 9: Meyer Personally Seeks to Dissolve the Engagement
At that moment, Lucas was on the verge of losing his wits to nausea.Clutching his stomach with one hand, he glared furiously at the Fairbairn family members gathered on the porch, thinking they were about to eject him.With angry words fermenting on his lips, the wrought-iron gate behind him swung open once again.A breeze brushed past, and through the tree-lined driveway, an imposing procession of luxury cars rolled into view.The first car came to a gentle halt, the driver sprinted to the rear door, and with a deep bow, opened it while shielding the roof with his hand, intoning respectfully, "Master, we have arrived at the Fairbairn estate."Meyer had arrived!Just as Lucas was being tormented, Gregory Fairbairn received a call from Meyer's confidant, Lyle.The Hong Kong overlord had come in person to handle today's disengagement.Despite being Hong Kong's wealthiest, Gregory Fairbairn had only met Meyer once, five years past.Now, across the mottled stretch of years, the over-fift

Chapter 10: What Did You and My Father Talk About?
After roughly twenty minutes, the silence of the living room was broken by footsteps descending the spiraled staircase. Everyone stood up in unison—except for Liana. By then, the sun was struggling to break through the gloomy clouds, casting a few weak rays onto the floor beside Liana's feet. She remained motionless on the sofa, her gaze fixed on her toes, a mask of indifference on her face.Only when Gregory Fairbairn and Meyer strolled back into the living room did her eyes flicker faintly, stealing a glance at them. Meyer, standing tall and composed in the center of the room, declared coolly, "No need to see me out."Gregory gave a sheepish smile, "Then... I'll await Mr. Shang's response."The man replied not with words but with a lowered eyelid. Whatever they had discussed remained a mystery, but the air between Meyer and Gregory Fairbairn was evidently charged with subtlety.Serena took a step forward, keen not to neglect their distinguished guest. With a mix of formality and res
