Julian glanced at Vivian with satisfaction before hanging up the call. He turned to Melvin. “Mr. Sanders. Step aside.”“And if I don’t?”“You will,” Julian said coldly.Melvin stared him down. “How about we make a bet? If Sarah gets hurt, let’s see if your master still protects you after that.”A faint smirk crossed Julian’s face. “So you’re finally admitting how much Leon cares about her?”“I am,” Melvin said flatly. “But so what?”“You’ve misunderstood, Mr. Sanders,” Julian replied, his tone sharpening. “My job is to bring Miss Sanders back to the villa by the sea. Whether she’s hurt or not, whether she gets scratched along the way—it doesn’t matter. Injuries during a rescue are unavoidable.”Melvin’s expression darkened. As much as he hated it, Julian had a point, they were backed into a corner.While the two of them argued, Vivian had already brought Sarah over and stood behind Julian.“Sir,” she said quietly, “I brought her.”Her heart sank with bitterness and regret. Fo

Lucy spoke up casually. “Charlotte, I guess you haven’t heard yet—there was never an engagement. That Sarah was a fake.”James’s brow furrowed. “How do you know that?”“Come on, you don’t need to worry about that,” Lucy said with a shrug. “But I will say this, it’s not exactly a secret. If you two really want to protect the real Sarah, you should expose the whole thing. Leon’s the one who’ll end up embarrassed anyway.”Compared to their calm conversation, Charlotte looked visibly rattled.“What do you mean ‘fake’?” she asked, panic creeping into her voice. “Sarah’s fake? That’s impossible.”“Why is it impossible?” Lucy raised an eyebrow. “Why do you seem so shocked?”James glanced at Charlotte, suspicion flickering in his eyes. Something about her reaction felt off.Lucy wasn’t letting it go. “Oh, and by the way, Charlotte,” she added with a half-smile, “I saw you at a dinner party the other day—with Leon. Just a little heads-up: you really shouldn’t get too close to guys like h

Vivian let out a cold laugh. “You’ve got the audacity to come here asking for money? Did you even finish what I paid you to do? You were exposed in just two days. After everything I invested in you? I haven’t even come looking for you yet, and you show up here begging? Do you have any idea how much I spent? Your surgeries, the voice modification, posture training, all of it cost a fortune.”Mandy stared at her, stunned. “But you promised. You said even if it didn’t work out, you’d still pay me. Miss Wilson, I know you’re angry things didn’t go according to plan, but that money you promised, I need it for my mom. She needs surgery. That money is her only chance.”Vivian didn’t even blink. “Mandy, go read the news. Anyone with a phone knows Wilson Corp is out of cash. Even my grandfather’s hospital bills are being paid with money I got from selling my house. Do you really think I’d let him die just to hand over a pile of cash to you?”“You’re seriously going to go back on your word?”

The atmosphere suddenly turned sharp and tense. No one said a word.In the end, it was Steven who broke the silence. His face was tight as he forced a smile that looked more painful than polite. “Mr. Larson, why don’t we all sit down and talk this through?”Hearing that, Scarlett blinked back the tears in her eyes and turned to sit on the couch in the living room.Mr. Larson followed, letting out a barely audible sigh before taking the seat across from her.Steven closed the door behind him, took a deep breath to calm his racing thoughts, then finally turned and walked over to join them.The moment he met Mr. Larson’s cold, cutting gaze, his hand twitched slightly. Without thinking, he blurted, “Would you like tea? Or maybe coffee? I can—”Mr. Larson raised a hand to cut him off. “No need. Sit down.”Scarlett had reached her limit. She looked up, eyes filled with tears. “Dad, didn’t you promise me I could choose my own partner? Why are you going back on your word now? Why are yo

“You have to promise you’ll come pick me up,” Scarlett said, tears sliding down her face. “I’ll wait for you.”Steven couldn’t bear to leave her like this. He squeezed her hand tightly and gently rubbed his thumb over her knuckles. “You don’t have to worry. I will.”He led her over to Mr. Larson, then slowly let go of her hand. “Mr. Lawson, I’ll leave Scarlett in your care for now. I know you don’t trust me, but one day, I’ll make sure you place her hand in mine yourself.”Mr. Larson looked at him and replied calmly, “Don’t get ahead of yourself. I have only one issue with you. You can’t guarantee her safety. Scarlett doesn’t have a mother. I raised her on my own, and I’m not ready to hand her over to someone I can’t trust with her life.”Then he took Scarlett’s hand from Steven and led her away without another word.Steven stood there, watching her leave, heart aching. But he understood—this had to happen. Until Mr. Larson could feel truly at ease, Steven would never be allowed t
