21 You Planned This From the Start

Two minutes later.Standing in front of the display case, Evelyn pointed at the strawberry mousse cake. The clerk was about to pack it when Nicholas ordered several more pretty ones in a row.Seeing this, Evelyn looked back at him.“That’s too many. We can’t finish them.”Nicholas lowered his gaze.“You can’t finish one. You can’t finish ten either. Buy one and you take ten bites. Buy ten, you take one bite from each.”Her eyes lit up.“Is that allowed?”His tone went cold.“No. Don’t buy them. Don’t eat them.”Evelyn lifted her face, smiling sweetly at him.“Thank you, Nicholas.”Her bright eyes caught him off guard for half a second.He immediately turned away, refusing to meet her gaze.“Evelyn, cut it out. Don’t look at me like that.”The clerk finished boxing ten mousse cakes

22 He Felt What It Was Like to Be Needed

That night Evelyn slept better than she ever had in her ten years in New York.When she woke the next morning, she actually stood in front of the floor to ceiling window for a while, quietly admiring the giant snowman in the yard.When she went downstairs, the morning news was playing on the living room TV.The volume was low, just enough to hear clearly.“Breaking news. Following a consumer report, Sullivan Jewelry Company is suspected of selling jewelry with hazardous radiation. The company’s executive Thomas has been taken in by the district attorney’s office for investigation. New York Early News will continue to follow the case.”Evelyn stepped into the living room.She lifted her eyes to the screen in time to see Thomas being escorted out by two D.A. officers, his hands in cuffs, pushed past a wall of media cameras before being shoved into a patrol car.Just then, a phone rang on the coffee table.

23 People Who Don’t Know Better Would Think She Is an Airhead

The phone rang in the dining room.Nicholas picked up.“Nicholas, I picked up a few great bottles of red at the auction. Free for dinner tonight? Last time was my bad. Give me a chance to make it up to you.”“Tomorrow.”“Perfect. I’ll book a private room. How about…”“The Captain’s Club outside New York.”Graham paused. They usually stuck to lively downtown venues or high-end private clubs. A secluded lodge in the suburbs was not their style.But if Nicholas said so, that was that.“Got it. I’ll call and reserve the biggest room.”The next day.After breakfast, Evelyn went upstairs into the walk-in closet.A few days ago Liam had hired a private carpenter to renovate a guest room into a dressing room for her. One by one, brand representatives delivered new-season clothing and accessories until the whole room was f

24 His Silent, Possessive Protection

“You guys heard, right? That genius designer Aurora from the design school, the one the university bragged about for years, got exposed for plagiarizing Peggy K.”“She plagiarized Peggy? How dare she! I saw the comparison images online. They’re practically identical. She might as well have copied and pasted it.”“Why wouldn’t she dare? She plagiarized before. A journal just exposed her thesis for plagiarism, and now her contest piece too. Honestly, I suspect all her work these past four years wasn’t done by her.”“What’s funnier is the school. They spent years worshipping her, bragging about her in every brochure. The design professors flaunted her too. She was supposed to be honored at today’s anniversary ceremony. Now everything collapsed overnight. I heard the vice president rewrote his speech in a panic.”Evelyn walked quietly along the tree-lined path.Around her were voices full of disdain.Aurora had been praised too highly and grew a

25 There Aren’t That Many Good People In This World

The anniversary ceremony wrapped up smoothly.When Evelyn stepped out of the auditorium, her advisor Fiona was waiting by the door. They walked out of the campus together.They arrived at the Captain’s Club at six thirty in the evening.After getting out of the cars, everyone headed through the garden toward the event hall. This gathering wasn’t just for school leadership. Several board members, shareholders, industry executives, and some promising young elites were invited as well.Evelyn had chosen to come here with a very specific goal.Inside the venue, she swept her gaze across the crowd and spotted a middle aged man speaking with the university president.He was an investor involved in Sullivan Jewelry Company’s latest contract and had a good relationship with Thomas. They had cooperated three or four times over the past five years. A long standing partner.He was excellent at pulling in capital. Years ago, whe

26 She Feels Dirty Just Looking at Him

Maxwell.The star of NYU.Aurora’s publicly acknowledged boyfriend.He walked down the corridor toward Evelyn, every step deliberate, every glance laced with disdain and thinly veiled mockery.When he stopped in front of her, he lowered his voice and accused, “Aurora’s competition piece was drawn by you. You copied Peggy K’s unpublished design on purpose just to humiliate her.”He wasn’t asking.He was stating what he believed was fact.When Evelyn had gotten into college at sixteen, Aurora had flown into a rage, furious that a sickly girl could score so well and get admitted early. She had dragged Evelyn down two flights of stairs by her hair, forbidding the servants to feed her, and thrown her out into the winter cold.By sheer luck, the Craig family had come to visit that night. For her own safety, Evelyn had slipped out through the back garden and collapsed in front of their people, escaping di

27 You’re Quite the Catch, Huh

Evelyn headed back to the banquet hall. She returned to where her mentor Fiona was chatting with colleagues, quietly taking a seat beside her and listening as they talked.Soon the group moved to the dining room next door. Course after course was served. Dinners like this were all about social niceties, not food, and Evelyn’s appetite was never good anyway. She only pretended to take a few bites here and there.About half an hour later, most of the guests finished eating and began leaving the restaurant. Evelyn rose and left together with Fiona.Back in the main hall, Fiona introduced her to several distinguished professors, including one with a particular love for Impressionist paintings. Fiona turned to Evelyn and said, “Evelyn, I had a few paintings delivered. They’re in my room. Go fetch them for me.”Evelyn nodded. She smiled politely and excused herself from the table before heading out.After she left, Fiona walked to a quieter corner and quickly called her son, who was stil

28 Heartbeat

“The AC won’t turn on. The radiator won’t either.”“And the room phone isn’t working. I didn’t bring my cellphone. Did you bring yours?”Evelyn talked as she walked toward him.Up close, she saw Nicholas still sitting there with that unhurried, cold composure. He said, “Didn’t bring it.”Of course.Nicholas was built like a tank. He could get through a winter night without heat and never even notice.But the room had grown icy.Evelyn’s fingers curled from the cold. Out of instinct, she reached to pull her coat tighter around her—only to remember she had handed it to the server when entering the hall. She wore only a long dress now.And humans in the cold seek heat without thinking.Her gaze drifted to Nicholas.She stared at him from the neck down for a very long moment.It was just the two of them in the room. Her gaze was open and

29 Not Even Worth One of Your Fingers

Morning light filtered through the curtains, silver and cold.It stung Evelyn’s eyes.She’d slept unusually well.Warm.Safe.Better than she had in years.Even after moving into the Drake residence where Liam constantly fussed over her, giving her heated foot warmers and keeping the master suite heated through the night, half her bed still stayed cold.This morning was different.Evelyn stretched lazily.She sat up—and froze. She was on the bed.And a few yards away, sitting on the sofa, was Nicholas.Evelyn: “…”She scrambled out of bed, slipped into her shoes, and hurried toward him.Up close, she saw his expression clearly.His face was composed as always—but the dark circles under his eyes stood out sharply, as if he hadn’t slept at all.Evelyn lifted her hand and waved it gently in front of him. “Are you okay?”“

30 Keeping Nicholas Safe Was Keeping Herself Safe

The car pulled into the city center. Fiona parked along the curb, and the two of them got out and walked to a small place that served tamagoyaki for breakfast.While Fiona waited inside, Evelyn went next door to buy coffee.She paid, took the drinks, and headed back. She had only walked a few steps when a rising noise stirred down the block. She looked up and saw a crowd gathering on one of the busy streets, people murmuring anxiously.Above that street stood a towering building.Evelyn raised her head.The Drake Group headquarters.“Someone’s trying to jump.”“Somebody already called the cops. They’re on the way.”“It’s an employee from Drake. Heard he couldn’t take the pressure anymore. Company’s been squeezing them too hard, so he climbed up to the roof.”A few passersby whispered as they walked.Evelyn stood still, lifting her gaze toward the skyscraper that pierced the clouds.Impossible.She knew Drake Group’s structure. She had studied its internal policies. Their employee bene
