The moment the police officers stepped into the dining room, the atmosphere changed completely.

Collins, Doris, Venus, and Kelsey immediately stood up, realizing that this wasn't as simple as they had thought.

Andrew, who was still sitting, adjusted his glasses in confusion.

"Who are they?"

"You called the police?" Wanda burst out, standing up so suddenly that her chair scraped loudly against the floor. She had never expected Ramon to involve the police. "What did I do to you?"

"What?" Andrew s

    The dining room fell into complete silence.Everyone was still trying to process Ramon's last words.Kelsey was the first to speak."What did you just say?"Her voice was calm, but there was uneasiness in her eyes.Ramon looked at her for a long moment. Then, without saying a word, he reached into his pocket and took out his phone. He unlocked it and opened a video.He took a step closer to Kelsey and handed the phone to her."See it yourself."Kelsey quickly took the phone.The moment the video started playing, everyone unconsciously moved closer.The footage was from the security camera inside the ice cream shop.The date at the top of the screen was the same day Kendrick had suffered his allergic reaction.The video showed Ramon, Kendrick, and Wanda sitting together.Everything looked normal until Ramon stood up to answer a phone call outside.The moment he walked toward the door, Wanda quickly reached into her handbag.Her hand came out holding a tiny packet.She gently rubbed her

    The moment the police officers stepped into the dining room, the atmosphere changed completely.Collins, Doris, Venus, and Kelsey immediately stood up, realizing that this wasn't as simple as they had thought.Andrew, who was still sitting, adjusted his glasses in confusion."Who are they?""You called the police?" Wanda burst out, standing up so suddenly that her chair scraped loudly against the floor. She had never expected Ramon to involve the police. "What did I do to you?""What?" Andrew stood up as well, his face full of shock. "The police?"Ramon didn't answer either of them.He simply looked at the officers and said calmly,"Take them away."The maid's face instantly turned as white as paper.She trembled violently on the floor."Ramon..." Collins frowned deeply. "You can't do this without telling us what's going on."Ramon remained calm."I already reported what I suspected before coming back to the dining room." His eyes fell on the maid. "I wanted to give you a chance to te

    The moment Ramon finished speaking, the dining room became even quieter.The maid stood beside him, gripping the tray with trembling hands."W-What do you mean?" Wanda stammered as she quietly wiped her sweaty palms against her dress beneath the table.Andrew slowly put down his fork."Is the wine different?" he asked with a puzzled smile. "Why do you want Wanda to drink yours?"He chuckled lightly before adding,"You really like taking care of Wanda if you're willing to let her drink from your glass." He adjusted his eyeglasses immediately. "But you shouldn't. Your wife is here, and she might think otherwise."He laughed as though he had made a harmless joke.No one else laughed.Instead, the atmosphere became even heavier."My wife wouldn't think otherwise because there is nothing between me and your daughter." Ramon answered without the slightest hesitation.His voice was calm, but every word carried weight."I only want her to drink it because there is something in the wine."His

    Soon, it was time for dinner.The servants quickly arranged the dishes on the long dining table.One after another, everyone took their seats.The atmosphere was strangely quiet.No one spoke much. Only the sound of plates and cutlery could be heard.Kelsey sat beside Kendrick.It was the same chair Wanda used to sit in, helping Kendrick with his meal while Kelsey sat at the far end of the table.Ramon didn't usually have dinner with the family, but tonight, he naturally took the seat beside Kelsey.At the head of the table sat Collins, while Doris sat beside him.Across from them sat Venus, Wanda, and Andrew.The table was filled with expensive dishes.Normally, Wanda would have tried her best to liven up the atmosphere.But tonight, she couldn't.Her eyes kept moving between Ramon and Kelsey.The two of them weren't talking.Yet somehow, their silence irritated her even more.Kelsey picked up some vegetables and placed them on Kendrick's plate."Eat slowly."Kendrick nodded obedient

    "Nothing?"Venus's quick answer made Ramon's brows furrow even deeper.He looked at her tightly clenched hands at her sides before turning to his mother."We did nothing to her," Doris said, clearly displeased by her son's suspicion of them.Ramon remained quiet for a few seconds."I really hope it's nothing." His voice dropped slightly. "Remember what I told you, Mum."After saying that, he turned around and walked away toward where Kelsey had gone.Silence filled the room.Wanda, who had been quiet the entire time, suddenly stood up.She hurried toward Venus."What did she say to you?" She asked through clenched teeth.Kelsey's presence had shaken her badly. She had thought Kelsey was gone for good.But here she was again.And even worse, she might ruin the plan she had carefully prepared.Her father and she had planned everything for today. Knowing Ramon would be at the family mansion, they had arranged everything in advance.But now Kelsey was here.Wanda shook her head.She didn'

    "At least I'm not a mistress to a married man."The words entered Venus's ears like a bolt of lightning.Her entire body froze.The anger on her face disappeared instantly. Her pupils contracted.For a long moment, she simply stared at Kelsey.Unable to move, speak or even breathe.The living room fell strangely silent.Doris and Wanda frowned in confusion.Neither of them had heard what Kelsey said. All they saw was Venus suddenly freeze in place.Kelsey watched her calmly. A faint smile tugged at the corner of her lips.So she was right.Venus had never expected her secret to be discovered."What's wrong?" Kelsey asked softly. Only Venus could hear her. "Surprised?"Venus's lips parted slightly, but no words came out. Her face had already gone pale.Kelsey took another step closer.The smile on her face widened."Who would have thought?" she whispered. "The almighty Venus Holloway."Kelsey's eyes slowly traveled over her."The woman who always looked down on me and called me shamel

    The evening breeze blew softly through the public garden not far from the Ivory Mansion.Kelsey sat quietly on one of the wooden benches, thinking about the next step to take after finding out that she couldn’t rent an apartment.“Did they know?” she asked herself softly.“They sure did.”She nodde

    Kelsey’s eyes widened slightly in surprise the moment she recognized the man sitting inside the car.It was Mr Rowland.The same man from the hospital.He still looked calm and powerful, dressed in a dark suit that made his cold appearance even more intimidating.“We meet again,” he said calmly.Ke

    By the time Kelsey returned to the Ivory Mansion, the sky had already turned dark. The gates slowly opened for the taxi she arrived in. She stepped out quietly, holding the shopping bags in both hands. The driver placed the remaining bags beside her before driving away. Kelsey stood there for a

    Meanwhile, Ramon sat in the CEO chair, his back slightly leaned against it, his gaze fixed on the wide glass window in front of him.Outside, the sky stretched endlessly, calm and distant—just like him. His fingers rested lightly on the arm of the chair, as if nothing in the world could disturb him
