With her hands bound, Maria refused to back down. She shouted urgently, “Harvey, don’t believe her! She doesn’t have any money to give you! Her family went bankrupt long ago and is drowning in debt. She’s just deceiving you!”Harvey?Oh right, there was such an actor.Adriana saw his hesitation—his eyes shifting—and smiled faintly at Maria.“Your backer, Anna, has fallen. Her father and brother are under investigation. With that source of income gone, forget about supporting some handsome guy—you won’t even be able to afford food.”She tapped her fingers lightly on her knee, raising an eyebrow.“As for me, I’ve got penalties to pay, sure—but a few million is no problem.”Whether or not either of them was truly wealthy, Adriana and Maria were worlds apart.Harvey quickly accepted the reality: Adriana was the one with the money.In th

Carson came tonight with a mission. Last night, Adriana had visited his home, and it nearly caused a family disaster. As a result, his mother had teamed up with her close friend and relative to hold a global search for a potential marriage partner. In the past, he could have used his leg injury as an excuse, but a few days ago, he had endured the pain to go to the law firm.Upon returning home, he could no longer stop his parents from talking.Thus, he ended up at this upscale restaurant, renowned for being one of the top ten best restaurants for couples.Regarding this mysterious matchmaker he had never seen before, Carson’s attitude was firm. On the way here, he had already prepared his words. If he couldn’t refuse, he would tell them he was gay and not interested in women. After all, he would never give up on Adriana.When the car pulled over to the side of the road, he immediately noticed a conspicuous Rolls-Royce. The license plate number was too familiar, and he immediately thou

Alicia had always disliked Calvin’s domineering manner and increasingly aligned herself with Carson.Suppressing a mocking smile, she said:“Which young lady is that? Maybe I know her?”Carson heard Alicia’s tone and knew she didn’t get along with Calvin.The enemy of my enemy is my friend.The wind shifted. He smiled at her with a hint of flirtation:“How can you talk like that? What young miss? You should ask Calvin which family’s young mistress she is.”Calvin had come out alone to handle the situation, leaving his companion inside the private room. Carson sensed something was off.They were all part of the same circle—just a handful of people mingling back and forth.If it weren’t for a hidden identity, would Calvin bother keeping her a secret?Who would’ve thought Calvin would end up like this?Calvin furrowed his brows.“He

Calvin didn’t leave. Instead, he slipped one hand into his pocket and took hers with the other, his gaze fixed on her eyes.“You’re not just good at being straightforward and forceful—you’re also skilled at diplomacy and persuasion. I guess I need to get to know you better, Miss Clarke.”Her ability to navigate any situation left a deep impression on him, stirring an unusual restlessness.Adriana felt goosebumps from his words.“Calvin, are you complimenting me? I’ve never experienced being praised by you before. It feels quite unfamiliar.”“Are you blaming me for not praising you enough? Show your strengths more often. I’m not just here to criticize people.”Calvin smiled, a gentle breeze caressing the curves of his face. The scene was like a painting unfolding, captivating at first glance.As they walked out, Calvin held Adriana’s hand tightly. The moon hu

As she tried to leave, Calvin grabbed her wrist, wrapped an arm around her waist, and pulled her into his embrace. He furrowed his brows and asked, “Are you still wearing underwear at night?”Adriana wouldn’t tell him it was to prevent perverts. “Oh, there’s still some time before bed. I don’t want them to sag.”Calvin covered her with his palm, the corner of his mouth lifting. “Indeed.”Adriana’s face flushed, and she leaned back, tucking in her chest. “Calvin, lie down—I’ll give you a massage!”Calvin couldn’t bear to let go, reluctantly saying, “No rush. Let me finish these few pages first.”Adriana nearly spat blood. “Fine, look all you want, but can you at least let go of my hands?”****Half an hour later.He dimmed the lights, closed the windows and curtains, leaving only a single sleep lamp on.The sa
