Beverly's confidence left Carly suddenly at a loss, and her voice faltered slightly. "Harvey and Wanda won't agree to this. They still don't know your background—""As long as James knows, isn't that enough?" Beverly cut in.She couldn't help but feel like she and Carly were from different eras. Wasn't freedom of choice in marriage supposed to be encouraged these days?With that, she walked out of the lounge.To Carly, it looked as though Beverly was flaunting her triumph and rubbing it in, and it made her heart ache unbearably. Tears of sorrow began to roll down her cheeks.She didn't even notice someone had sat down beside her until the man asked monotonously, "Is that all you've got?"His voice was flat yet piercingly harsh, its abrasive quality instantly making Carly suppress her tears and sit up straight.A chill clung to him, and his eyes were ringed with bluish-gray dark circles. His pallid complexion carried a faint hint of sickliness, and when his icy gaze swept over he

Beverly had no choice but to put her phone down and go fetch a change of clothes for Timothy.After both of them had showered, she read Timothy a bedtime story and coaxed him to sleep. Then, she returned to her own room.Damien was standing at her doorway with a glass of milk in hand. He kept raising and lowering his hand, lost in thought.Beverly smiled as she walked over. "Damien, were you looking for me?"He turned and saw Beverly was dressed in a white nightgown with a cardigan draped over her shoulders. Her long wavy hair was tied loosely up, with a few strands curling against her neck.His gaze faltered for a moment before he quickly drew it back. "I just thought you might not be used to staying here." With that, he handed her the glass of milk."I'm fine," Beverly replied as she took it. "If that's all, I'll head to bed now.""Alright."Damien watched as Beverly entered her room and closed the door behind her. He wanted so badly to ask her why she had chosen James and no

"I should get back to work." Beverly quickly made her way into the office to avoid further discussion."Beverly, there's a keychain—" Tabitha started, but by then Beverly had already gone inside.A "No Unauthorized Entry" sign hung on the door, marking it as the most secretive place in the whole workplace.Tabitha knew better than to barge in, but she was determined to complete the task Wanda had given her. Thus, she resolved to wait at the front entrance until Beverly finished work and then take her back home.Meanwhile, Evan was keeping watch at Damien's place, awaiting his return.…Unable to refuse Tabitha, Beverly went home with her after work. Once Tabitha had dropped her off at the Bronson estate and had seen the task through, she headed out again.As Beverly walked into the manor, she was welcomed warmly by Harvey and Wanda. But she had no idea how to broach the subject when faced with their expectant gazes.Wanda took Beverly's hand and said, "James called to say he's

Beverly looked up and met a cold, sinister gaze. She'd seen this man before at the Bronson family gathering—it was Carly's older brother, Marvin.Marvin strode toward them, his eyes sweeping over Beverly and the laptop in her hands. But the screen had already gone black, revealing nothing."Aren't you James' fiancee? What are you doing here working with Mr. Romero?" he asked."She's one of my administrative staff," Victor answered dismissively. "Marvin, the manager of your IT department, Justin Sinclair, is suspected of involvement in a cyber theft case. Where is he?"”The tone Victor used with Marvin was decidedly unkind.Marvin's attitude was quite gentle, but the sound of his grating, harsh voice instinctively made people frown."Mr. Romero, I haven't seen Justin at work for two days. In fact, I actually came here hoping to find him. It never crossed my mind that he'd be involved in illegal activities.""Did he act alone?" Victor asked, emphasizing the word "alone".A sickly

Justin was Cindy's older brother and Gerard's son."Let me go." Beverly refused to answer any of his questions. "You're already wanted by the police, and now you've kidnapped me. If you harm me further, the charges will only pile up. You'll just end up behind bars with your parents soon enough.""You bitch!" Justin slapped Beverly across the face, leaving a sharp red mark. "If I dump your body in the river, who's going to know it was me?""My laptop will know. It's connected to a strong network every day. Everything I say is recorded and transmitted to that network."This was a security network she'd developed herself to ensure the safety of every employee on assignments. Each laptop not only recorded their operations but also continuously assessed the danger level of their surroundings."You're lying! There's no such thing that powerful!" Justin grabbed the laptop bag slung over Beverly's back and hurled it into the river. The rushing current swallowed it up in an instant."Even
