Jade swaggered in, took a seat in front of Lloyd, and looked at him with a cold smirk. "I'm here to tell you that you won't win this lawsuit."Lloyd gritted his teeth, glaring at her. She was just a woman he didn't take seriously, yet he had repeatedly fallen into her traps. It wasn't that he wasn't cautious enough, it was just that Jade was incredibly cunning. It seemed like she was born to thwart him, knowing all his weaknesses and exploiting them every time they clashed."What do you mean?" Learning from past experiences, Lloyd didn't dare to confront Jade rashly again and adopted a somewhat appeasing attitude."Jade, I remember I haven't offended you. Even if I did in the past, it was unintentional. After all, everyone loves beautiful things. You wouldn't hold a grudge against me for that, would you?" Lloyd really didn't understand why Jade bore such resentment toward him. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have provoked her or even entertained the idea of recruiting her under

Just as Kayden was about to give up, a surprising scene unfolded. The defendant's lawyer made a startling move—he stood up and told the judge, "Your Honor, I request a recess."The judge was puzzled. The defendant's side was in a favorable position, and pressing forward would almost guarantee their victory. However, he respected their choice."Very well, recess," he declared, agreeing to the defendant's request.Outside the courtroom, Kayden looked at the opposing side in confusion. "What's the meaning of this?""Mr. Kayden, we're dropping the case," the defendant's lawyer said before leaving, astonishing Kayden.Kayden's phone rang, so he answered only to find Lloyd on the line."Uncle Kayden, as you wished, you will receive 50% of the Zeal Group's shares," Lloyd said before hanging up abruptly.Kayden held the phone, baffled, and turned to his lawyer. "What's happening?"Neither he nor the lawyer understood.With a mind swirling with questions, Kayden hastened to the Zeal Gr

Sophie's worries rendered Stella speechless. She stared at Sophie for a full minute before speaking. "You're supposed to be an educated young lady from a wealthy family. What era are we living in that you still think like this? Why bother with those internet trolls? You and Kayden have finally come this far. Don't overthink it."Stella's words provided some comfort to Sophie, but she still couldn't completely let go of her worries."Okay, I understand." Sophie didn't want Stella to worry about her, so she forced a smile.Noting Sophie's response, Stella realized she hadn't convinced her. Although she was concerned, she refrained from pressuring Sophie too much. She understood she had her own obstacles to overcome.After leaving Sophie, Stella met Jade at a nearby coffee shop."How's it going?" They settled in, discussing the situation over coffee.Stella sighed before delicately sipping her coffee. "This is something others can't solve. We'll need to wait until she comes to her s

Sophie was buried in a place with lush greenery and rolling hills. Kayden commissioned a statue in her honor, encircled by vibrant flowers, and employed someone to keep it clean.Seeing Sophie's statue, Jade was overcome with an indescribable sadness. Only days ago, Sophie had been alive and well, but now she was gone—leaving behind no words, only a sudden departure from this world.With tears filling her eyes, Jade placed a bouquet of lilies at the foot of Sophie's statue. "Sophie, rest in peace. I will avenge you."…Since Sophie's passing, Kayden had fallen apart, drowning himself in alcohol every day.If his service staff hadn't called Jade, she wouldn't have known the extent of his decline.Pushing open his door, she found his room littered with empty bottles, the air thick with the stench of alcohol and smoke—an unbearable sight."Kayden, do you plan to keep wallowing like this forever?" Jade walked in, kicking away the bottles in frustration. Sophie had not been avenged,

Kayden staggered out, holding the bottle, while Jade stood still, her sharp gaze fixed on his back.The servant stepped forward to stop Kayden from doing something foolish, but he harshly pushed the servant away."Mr. Kayden, please calm down," the servant pleaded, getting up and clinging to Kayden's legs, immobilizing him.Kayden struggled, roaring like a trapped beast, "Get off me! I must avenge Sophie!""Ms. Severin, please persuade Mr. Kayden," the servant pleaded tearfully with Jade. "If he continues like this, he'll get into trouble."Jade's expression turned cold, her words cutting. "Let him be. If he insists on delivering himself to the enemy, let them catch him. There's no need to seek revenge for Sophie anymore. He's offering himself up. It's as good as reuniting with Sophie.""Sophie, Sophie..." Kayden suddenly regained his senses, whispering her name before slumping to the floor, dispirited. "What should I do to avenge you?"Approaching Kayden, Jade asked, "Do you de
