Jamie exclaimed, "They managed to scare us off. How embarrassing and humiliating!""You're kidding, right? It'd be even more embarrassing to stick around any longer," Lydia countered as she suppressed the pain in her wrist. Lydia then retrieved her phone, opened the browser, and found a picture of Jonah Taylor, the president of KS Group.Jamie peered over her shoulder. When she saw the picture, she gasped, "Isn't this the guy we saw earlier? He's the president of KS Group!"Lydia's eyes darkened as she gazed at the picture, feeling beads of sweat forming. Initially, the man had seemed familiar, but she couldn't place him. Then, as she left through the exit, it clicked—he was one-half of the gay couple that had recently made headlines."That can't be right. The president of KS Group is gay. How could he also be the one claiming to be Rose's boyfriend? They just bear a striking resemblance." "You're right. That bitch couldn't be so lucky as to date a Taylor."Jamie, visibly sh

Rose's body stiffened, feeling as though a sharp ice blade had pierced her heart, plunging her into agony."Okay," she complied, her trembling hand slipping into the pocket of her coat. Slowly, she extracted the badge, gripping it tightly in her palm, then turned around.At that moment, Silas gazed at her gloomily, extending his hand toward her.Rose pressed her lips together into a thin line as she placed the badge in his palm. Just as she attempted to retract her hand, Silas seized it, pulling her forcefully into his embrace.Caught off guard, Rose collided with Silas' chest. He couldn't resist holding the small of her back, sealing her lips fiercely with a fiery kiss. Deepening the embrace, a sense of possessiveness lingered between their entwined lips.Rose's thoughts scattered, and her mind seemingly zapped. She responded to his passion, wrapping her arms around him and returning the kiss with equal fervor.After what felt like an eternity of kissing, Silas reluctantly pulle

Dinnertime arrived, and the four of them were famished. To celebrate Silas and Rose's newfound romance, they decided to visit Belbanks' most renowned local restaurant.Jasper took the wheel while Alyssa sat next to him in the front passenger seat. They allowed Silas and Rose to claim the backseat. After all, they just got together. It was understandable that they would be all over each other. Alyssa and Jasper, however, couldn't help but avoid the rearview mirror. The only sounds reaching them were occasional smacks."Ouch, Rosie," Silas winced, rubbing his hand. "Can you be a little lighter? I am your husband, you know." His playful tone made it clear he wasn't bothered by their audience.Despite the playful pain, his affection was evident."Whose permission did you think you had to let your hands wander like that? Quite bold of you, isn't it?"Silas tightened his embrace around Rose's waist, sending a warm flush creeping up her cheeks. As Rose nestled against his chest, a wave

Silas grew serious."Calm down, Lyse. You need to watch out for your health," Jasper said, holding onto Alyssa's trembling hands. "Especially after you just ate. You have a weak stomach; getting angry might make it worse."Alyssa sat down angrily. Jasper quickly embraced her and kissed her temple.Though he was calming her down, she still quivered in anger.Rose said through uneven breathing, "This really is Josh's doing. I'd asked Clarissa before why she didn't rebel against him. Times have changed, after all. She could've sued for divorce and made Josh pay at any point in time so long as she had ample evidence."But… Clarissa was really terrified of Josh. It almost seemed like Josh had some deadly upper hand over her, making it so that she never dared make a move, even if it meant meeting her death at his hands one day. Clarissa ran off before I could finish talking to her."Silas' gaze darkened somewhat when he gazed at Rose's pale face. He'd noticed how she had reacted. It wa

"From now on, I need to care for Landon just like how Alyssa had cared for Jasper," Lauren promised.Angelina felt both endeared and sad upon hearing this. She was glad that Landon and Lauren's relationship had been far less eventful than Jasper's and Alyssa's. Lauren would never suffer by Landon's side the way Alyssa had with Jasper.But it was a good thing that Alyssa was patient enough and that Jasper realized how he truly felt in time, finally enabling both of them to reunite."Angie, if Landon isn't coming home for dinner tonight, then there's no point for me to go back either." Lauren held Angelina's hand and said, "I want to practice in one of the drawing rooms. Can we have dinner at a restaurant later instead?""W-What did you just say, madam?" Angelina was stunned.Lauren was both autistic and had high social anxiety. She'd never had a meal outside the house, even after dating Landon for so long. Lauren was always hesitant whenever Landon got them a spot at a restaurant a
