Chapter 282

Author: Hello Spring
In front of the glass window, two blurred silhouettes pressed together, entwined like vines in the dark.

After a long moment, they finally broke apart.

As Mandy adjusted her clothes, she asked lightly, “What are you doing here all of a sudden? No one saw you, did they?”

“Am I something to be ashamed of?”

The man's voice was somewhat cold, carrying a suffocating sense of intimidation.

“Of course not. But we agreed that until I secure the Smith family, we’d pretend not to know each other.”

“I saw you talking to Howard Zimmer just now,” he said, his tone sharpening. “I didn’t like the way he looked at you. Made me want to tear his eyes out.”

Mandy let out a soft laugh, looping an arm around his neck. Barefoot, she rose on her toes and brushed a kiss across his lips. “Relax. He won’t be around to see another sunrise.”

Howard thought he was the hunter. He had no idea he was the prey.

“You’re mine,” the man growled. “For life. You’ll never escape me.”

Mandy nodded. “I’m yours. Alw

    Liz shook her head. “Most probably. But let her enjoy herself for now.”Jane burst out laughing. “Watching her work so hard now is almost comical.”When Mandy finally learned that Mrs. Smith Sr. had already transferred all the shares to Liz, her expression would be priceless.Liz smiled faintly. “It’s getting late. We should head out.”Jane nodded. “Yeah. Half the guests have already left anyway. No point in staying.”They set down their glasses, said a polite goodbye to Mrs. Smith Sr., and made their way toward the hotel entrance.From across the room, Kimberly watched Liz leave without even sparing them a glance. Her face darkened, her voice low but furious. “Michael, do you see that? This is our dear daughter. She doesn’t even acknowledge us. What kind of daughter behaves like that?”Though she kept her tone low to avoid others overhearing, the anger in it was impossible to hide.Michael frowned at Liz’s retreating figure. “What matters now is making sure Mandy secures her f

    After exchanging pleasantries with Xena and swapping contact information, Mandy moved on to mingle with other guests.Across the room, Jane’s face flushed red with anger when she saw Kimberly introducing Xena to Mandy.“Has your mom completely lost her mind? She knows Xena was the homewrecker who stole Zac from you, and she’s still introducing her to Mandy?”Liz’s expression stayed cool. “To her, Xena is just a connection to Zac and a way into Voyager Tech. What Xena did before doesn’t matter to her.”Jane was seething. “Even if she wants Mandy to make connections, couldn’t she at least be a little selective? Since when do you scoop up trash and treat it like treasure?”The thought of that woman walking proudly on Zac’s arm, attending parties, and rubbing shoulders with society’s elite made Jane’s blood boil. A woman who had clawed her way up by destroying someone else’s relationship should have been shamed, not celebrated.Liz’s eyes turned cold. “As long as it benefits Mandy, s

    Liz frowned and turned, impatience flickering in her eyes. “Mrs. Smith, if you have something to say, you can say it right here. Or is it so shameful that you need to drag me somewhere private?”Her voice was calm but loud enough for the four or five people nearby to hear. Instantly, their attention shifted toward her and Kimberly.A flicker of embarrassment crossed Kimberly’s face. She forced her anger down and managed a strained smile. “What nonsense are you talking about? It’s just a personal matter. Since it concerns you, I can’t exactly bring it up in front of everyone.”Her false air of concern almost made Liz laugh. To anyone else, it might have looked like Kimberly was being considerate.“If it’s about me, then say it here. There’s nothing you can’t say in front of others.”If she followed Kimberly out now, the rumors would spread before she even returned.Kimberly’s smile slipped, her expression hardening. “Liz, I’m doing this for your own good. Don’t be so ungrateful.”

    “Do you want me to pick you up later? It’s not safe for you to be out so late on your own.”“No need. Jane will drive me back once it’s over. You’ve been pulling long hours in surgery lately. Get some rest tonight.”“Alright, then I won’t keep you. Have fun.”After ending the call, Liz touched her warm cheeks, unable to stop the smile tugging at her lips.As she turned away, a figure slowly stepped out from behind the heavy curtains. Zac’s eyes followed her retreating back, filled with sorrow.Back when he used to work late nights at the office, Liz had always spoken to him the same way, softly urging him to rest. But now, all that tenderness belonged to another man.And no matter how unwilling he was to accept it, he had no right to compete with William anymore.Liz returned to Jane’s side. They lingered a while longer, during which several men asked Liz to dance. She turned them all down.Jane, meanwhile, looked toward the center of the dance floor, itching to join in. But wi

    Howard had his eye on Liz, and Mandy guessed it wouldn’t be long before he made a move.With that in mind, she seized an opportunity to intercept Howard by the restroom doors.“Mr. Zimmer, I saw you talking to my sister earlier. Do you like her?”Howard gave her a flat look. “Mandy, you’re not here to warn me to stay away from Liz, are you?”Mandy let out a soft laugh. “Warn you? Not at all. If you ended up as my brother-in-law, I’d be delighted.”Howard sneered. “A small-town girl like her? She’s nowhere near good enough for me.” His tone dripped with contempt, his expression smug. It was clear he had no intention of treating Liz seriously. To him, she was only someone to toy with.Mandy’s smile widened. “If that’s how you feel, I might know a way to help you get close to her. But it’ll cost you.”“What kind of cost?”Her smile deepened. “This isn’t the right place to talk. Let’s set a time and go over it properly.”Howard’s eyes flicked over her figure before he smirked. “
