***"Don't you dare touch what I have!" Maximilian's firm, cold voice stopped Renata, who had just picked up the cell phone. Startled, her face pale, she smiled clumsily to cover her nervousness."I only answered it because your phone kept ringing. I thought it was important," Renata replied, trying to sound calm.Maximilian snatched the phone out of her hand roughly. "You don't deserve to answer it!" Maximilian replied sharply, making Renata feel even more cornered."I only meant to help," Renata said, trying to defend herself. However, Maximilian's cold gaze destroyed all her good intentions. She looked down, but a deep curiosity remained in her heart.Ignoring her again, Maximilian stood up from his chair, preparing to leave. However, Renata, not wanting the conversation to end so easily, grabbed his arm. His arm flinched in anger at her touch.“Don't touch me!” Maximilian brushed Renata's hand away quickly, his eyes flashing with unusual anger. "Do you want me to suffer? Because y

***Maximilian strode into the living room steadily. Selene was waiting for him there with a gentle smile. She set a cup of tea on the small table in front of him and looked at him expectantly."Drink up, dear," she said, pouring warm tea into the cup in front of him.Maximilian took the cup and drank slowly. After a moment of silence, Selene broke it with a question that hit the nail on the head."You're still allergic to contact with strange women, aren't you?" Yesterday, Renata accidentally touched you, and Mama saw how your body reacted,” Selene said in a worried tone.Maximilian looked down, took a deep breath, and replied, "She didn't touch me by accident, Mom. He touched me on purpose.”Selene's eyes widened in amazement. She tried to hide her surprise with a deep sigh and gazed lovingly at her son. "Son, don't be cold to her. I know you're still angry, and I totally understand. But can you make peace with the past?"Maximilian turned his gaze out the window and looked at the g

***Anastasia sat in the company meeting room with a pale face, staring at her phone, which was filled with bad news. The circulating news portrayed her as a woman who would do anything for popularity. Now, with the emergence of news about Maximilian—or Max Stone, a man with a history of legal troubles—her image had grown worse in the public eye. The marriage to Max Stone was seen as a way for her to reclaim Leon Hale.Her concert, scheduled for next week, had been postponed indefinitely. This was a major blow to her plans and dreams, and the mocking comments on social media only made her feel worse. Many wrote that Anastasia and Max Stone were a perfect match because they were both from the "lower class." Feeling heartbroken, anxious, and guilty, especially toward Max, who had been dragged into it, Anastasia gathered the courage to apologize to Christian and Christina. These two people had played a significant role in her career, accepting her and believing in her music.Christian, s

***Renata sat with Anastasia, Selene, and Shayne in the living room of the Kingsley family's main residence. That evening, the light conversation was filled with praise for Renata, a doctor who had dedicated her life to helping others. Shayne seemed to hold her in high regard, and Selene looked at her with pride."Renata," Shayne said with a wide smile, "not many people are willing to dedicate their lives to helping others like you do. You are invaluable to your family and to us as well.”Renata smiled gracefully. “Thank you, Uncle. Everything I've done pales in comparison to what the Kingsley family has given me."Selene chimed in. "That's right. We're proud of you, Renata."After a brief chat, Shayne and Selene excused themselves to take an important call, leaving Renata and Anastasia alone in the quiet living room. Renata turned her gaze to Anastasia with a faint smile and started a seemingly casual conversation."Anastasia, you know, don't you? The Kingsley family has a good repu

***Amidst the lavish wedding anniversary party of Shayne and Selene Kingsley, Anastasia arrived with Lyra. The room, which had been filled with laughter and conversation, fell silent as soon as the public figure embroiled in scandal entered. The guests' eyes immediately turned to her, some curious and others obviously uncomfortable. How could a stranger be attending this private party? Typically, only three families were invited: the Kingsleys, the Idzes, and the Browns.Anastasia tried to calm herself, though the sharp stares and whispers around her made her feel awkward. She lifted her head but couldn't ignore the overwhelming feeling of exclusion."Is that really Anastasia?" one of the guests whispered beside her."Of course. Who else could it be? A famous public figure who—well, you know..."Anastasia swallowed hard. Her mind raced, and she felt as if she had made a mistake by attending this event. The judgmental stares and critical whispers felt piercing.Lyra, standing beside h
