Jamie pressed his tongue against the roof of his mouth, feeling a sense of determination. It was good timing. He had something he wanted to ask Paityn, and not addressing it directly would keep him restless at night. Paityn had come over to drop off some things for Tegan, specifically gifts for the little one, Lola. As she opened the car door and stepped out, her eyes immediately fell on Jamie. Jamie stood in the courtyard in his black hunting outfit, blending seamlessly with the twilight around him. Paityn had to tilt her head back to see him clearly. All she could make out were the sharp contours of his features, radiating an air of distance. That was right. Jamie exuded an air of distance. They hadn’t parted on good terms. For a long time, they had avoided even the smallest greeting whenever they crossed paths in the business world. Jamie was no longer the type to press Paityn about why they couldn’t be together, as he had done in the past. Everything was her choice, and

Keaton was on the other end of the phone.As night fell, a luxury black sports car parked in the hotel parking lot. Keaton was sitting inside it, gripping his phone as he stared in the direction of the hotel room. A fierce look was hidden in his dark eyes. Denise had taken the bait. All Craig needed to do now was keep appearing, leaving the bait out. He was confident that she would fall for it. Keaton didn’t want Denise’s mere possessions. Instead, he wanted her life in order to comfort the spirit of his deceased brother—Callan.As Craig passed by the car, he spotted Keaton, who was the financial backer. However, he didn’t get in. He simply nodded slightly. Their eyes met, and they shared an unspoken understanding.After Craig left, Keaton sat in the car and smoked a cigarette. The light smoke was carried away by the cold wind, and Keaton's handsome face gradually came into focus. With that said, the malice in his eyes only deepened and refused to dissipate. At that moment,

Denise felt a surge of joy in her heart. She turned and nestled against Craig's chest, holding his face and kissing him. "Then, show me what you can do, and let me see it well." Craig turned to extinguish his cigarette and once again had sex with Denise passionately. He indulged in it until they were thoroughly satisfied. Craig was truly capable. Within half a month, the 20 million dollars that Denise entrusted to him had doubled, and the numbers in her account rolled over to 40 million dollars. This made Denise's eyes shine with excitement as she devoted herself to serving Craig every night. She was eager to become rich. The market was indeed booming before the New Year, and it was a bull market. Denise's account balance had already surged to 80 million dollars, nearing 100 million dollars. She witnessed Craig's capabilities and became even more convinced of him. With their personal connection and mutual benefits, she was always the first to reap the rewards. That night,

Denise collapsed on the bathroom tiles, tears streaming down her face. She had thought about suicide, but she was afraid of the pain. She thought of Craig, wondering if maybe he didn’t mean it. However, she cursed under her breath after calling his phone a dozen times and still finding it turned off.“Craig, that bastard. All men are scum.”...Denise had drunk too much. She burned the copy of the guarantee agreement with tear-filled eyes. As she wept, she looked into the void and said, “I misjudged you, Craig. Rot in hell.”Denise covered her face and sobbed uncontrollably, tears spilling from between her fingers. Then, she thought about going to find Keaton.Denise put on her finest clothes and used what little money she had left to take a cab to Keaton’s house. However, the security guards and the servants stopped her, telling her that he didn’t welcome her and that the Bright family had no place for someone like her.Denise couldn't bear the blow. She gripped the black, car

Bright Villa was lively and bustling during the New Year. Keaton’s parents were also spending it in Brookesville, planning to return to their hometown after the wedding of Keaton and Yanni. They were also together with Ella to celebrate a warm New Year together. Gustavo and Susan had seen the news and were aware that Denise died. She even offered a silent prayer to her. However, Gustavo and her didn’t ask about it when Keaton returned. They simply assumed it was heaven's way of taking Denise away.They didn’t bring up Denise during the reunion dinner, fearing Ella might find out. As night fell, the little girl suddenly asked about Denise, wondering how she would celebrate the New Year. Susan looked at Ella and couldn't respond. Then, Yanni came over and hugged the little girl, telling her, "She went abroad! They don’t celebrate the New Year there. They celebrate their own holidays." Ella nodded and didn’t ask any more questions. Yanni thought to herself that Keaton might tell
