Matthew was about to lash out in fury when a notification popped up on his phone.Posts about the auction were already trending. "Auction Announced for the Research Materials of Heather Mallone, Pioneer of Holography in Draskia."The post had gone viral on Twitter, sparking a frenzy like a drop of ice-cold water hitting boiling oil. The whole tech world was ablaze.Anyone with half a brain knew that once holography technology became a reality, existing smart systems would be rendered obsolete. Connecting to holography would usher in a new technological revolution.The news spread fast. Not only had it reached the elites of Ashthorne's high society, but even researchers abroad were abuzz. Some publicly declared their intention to win the auction at all costs.Even though the data was from ten years ago, it was incredibly valuable to them and held significant worth."Liesel's lost her damn mind," Matthew growled, barely containing his anger. Who else but a lunatic would put Heather

"Calm down, Lili." Neal could no longer remain composed. He felt like Liesel had lost her mind.The car seemed to jerk for a moment, as though it had heard Neal's voice. But after a brief pause, it shot forward at an even faster speed.Neal could feel the sweat pouring down his back. Liesel had truly lost it. She had gone mad for Elijah!"Neal, I'm not joking. Trust my control." Liesel pointed to her temple as she continued to manipulate the car at an insane speed.Neal's face darkened, but he said nothing. He simply watched helplessly as the car sped on.Suddenly, a large screen next to the track flickered on, revealing a live feed of Henry inside the car. He was crying and begging for mercy.The camera inside the car showed his frantic state.Liesel had already suspected that Henry agreed to stage the accident either because he was gravely ill or didn't fear death. Still, she had chosen to make him suffer.She wanted him to be engulfed by fear and experience the terror of a c

Ethan began to clap. His eyes sparkled with admiration and awe. "This car was only built to test the model's performance. It still needs more optimization later on," Liesel said coolly. She walked toward the mangled vehicle, her heels clicking sharply against the ground. A breeze swept by, causing the hem of her loose dress to flutter. Her lips still held the faint curve of a smile, but it was cold."How does it feel, Henry?" Liesel stared down at the man bleeding from his forehead. She didn't bother kicking him out of revulsion for how dirty she thought he was.Henry huddled on the ground. The fear in his chest had reached its peak.Knowing he wouldn't live much longer due to his terminal illness, he had targeted Elijah. He accepted a hefty payout from Matthew as he thought it would secure his family's future after his death.The sensation of being repeatedly hurled toward death but never quite reaching it was unbearable. His body felt like it was being suspended mid-air and

Elijah was making Liesel feel guilty on purpose, knowing that guilt would bind her closer to him with an unshakable sense of affection. He chuckled softly, but his amusement was cut short when Liesel cupped his face in her hands and kissed the corner of his mouth. The hospital room's harsh fluorescent light seemed to soften at that moment. They cast a gentle glow over them. His lips were dry and soft. As she leaned in, Liesel caught a whiff of blood mixed with antiseptic. "Liesel, the anesthesia hasn't completely worn off yet." Elijah tried to grab her hand, but he didn't have the strength to do so. With a hint of helplessness in his voice, he continued, "Maybe you should wait until tomorrow to kiss me." "Keep dreaming." Liesel pursed her lips before she suddenly rested her head on his shoulder. Her warm breath brushed against his neck, the closeness more tender than romantic. "Elijah, I was so scared. Even now, I can't stop shaking. Look." Liesel lifted her arm as if

Although Neal didn't quite approve of someone playful and with a slightly needy nature, if Liesel was happy, that was all that mattered. It was all just a game between young lovers, after all. Compared to Jacob, Elijah seemed like a better match for her.At least he didn't make her feel like an outsider, with her husband acting cold and distant.Elijah didn't make Liesel stay in the hospital longer than needed. After a short conversation, he urged her to leave and get some rest. Neal didn't linger either and followed Liesel out of the hospital."Are you sure he's the one?" Neal asked.Liesel was quick to answer. "Yes. For now, he is.""That's good. I think you'll be happy with him." Earlier at the hospital, despite Elijah being exhausted, he had still been trying to make Liesel laugh, lifting her spirits in the face of the car accident. It seemed like he was making an effort to show that the accident hadn't affected him at all.The reason he had urged Liesel to go back and rest
