"Adriana, don't go near Francesco again."Inside the moving luxury car, Bella sat in the passenger seat, turning toward Adriana with a worried gaze. Her voice was gentle.She had witnessed the entire story of Adriana and Francesco—from their first meeting to falling in love—and she had seen how that relationship ended in bitter disaster.Outsiders assumed Adriana had long since moved on. Only Bella knew the turbulence she hid beneath her calm exterior.Adriana's eyes stayed fixed on the road ahead. Neon lights from the city reflected across her face. She wore a red off-shoulder knit sweater, her long black hair falling freely over her shoulders. Her profile caught the light, sharp and striking, a vivid beauty that left an impression."I know."Her voice was quiet, and her fingers unconsciously gripped the steering wheel.She didn't dare admit she had never truly abandoned the thought of being near Francesco again. Over the past six months, the delicate distance between them had

Oliver agreed to let Adriana participate in the investigation, but during the morning shareholders' meeting, several major investors criticized Neo for favoritism, demanded Adriana be fired, and called for her to be held accountable.Neo did not respond immediately. Instead, he summoned Adriana and asked her what she wanted to do."Adriana, no matter which part of the process went wrong, if you want to stay at Sanctity, I can protect you," he said."Please don't hide me away. Let me participate in the investigation. If the issue lies in the R&D stage, I'll willingly leave Sanctity," Adriana replied, her eyes clear and resolute. She had already accepted the situation—her focus now was finding the problem."Adriana, with me here, you don't have to do this," Neo said gently. Adriana's stubbornness reminded him of her mom.But being part of the investigation meant confronting questions and criticism head-on. The pressure from outside could crush even the strongest resolve."When you

The Este estate was quiet. Francesco sat on the sofa, holding a finely carved wooden figurine of a woman. Like his other works, it had no facial features.On the TV, Slater Group's news played. The story centered on disabled users who had been affected, sparking a storm of public outrage."According to a female manager at Slater Group, the technical team leader for this project at Sanctity Group is an inexperienced young woman. Rumor has it that she had an improper relationship with the company's owner."Another executive revealed that this woman is the wife of the Slater Group's CEO.""These claims cannot be verified at this time. What is certain is that the project's handover raises many questions…"Francesco's expression darkened. He reached for the remote and shut off the TV."Sir!" Mars strode in, carrying a box."A USB drive. Odysseus dug it up from the soil.""What USB drive?" Francesco asked. He opened the box. Inside lay the USB he had asked Bianca to give Adriana on N

The weight lifted, exhaustion hit Adriana like a tidal wave.Adriana collapsed into bed as soon as she got home and slept like a stone. When the phone finally rang, it was already 4:30 in the afternoon.Groggy, she answered, and Bella's cheerful voice came through."Adriana, darling! Are you free tonight for dinner? I want you to meet my new boyfriend, Mr. Smile.""Yes, yes, of course!"She scrambled upright, realizing she hadn't had time to deal with this in her recent busy schedule. Bella's "Mr. Smile" wasn't just another boyfriend—he was her fiancé. She had to meet him."What's Mr. Smile's surname?""Louis. He likes to smile.""Send me the address. See you there."Hanging up, Adriana got up and prepared herself.They were meeting at an upscale restaurant. Bella and her fiance were already there. Adriana followed the hostess into the private room, straightening her posture and greeting them with poise, a contrast to her usual casual self when with Bella."Mr. Louis, hello.

Under Neo's pressure, the reason for the swapped coating material was uncovered in just three days.The culprit was one of Dean's trusted aides. Seeking to pocket the price difference, he had secretly replaced the material with a cheaper alternative. Slater Group sent him to the authorities, where investigators discovered he had embezzled over a million dollars, plus an additional 200 thousand dollars in kickbacks.As news spread, all eyes turned to Dean. Several major shareholders demanded his removal from the chairmanship and called for a new election.As for the data tampering, the surveillance system in the building had failed the day before "Optivex" went into production. No one could determine who had done it. Adriana realized immediately that the act had been premeditated.The password to the shared project cloud was known only to project members and a few top executives—including Chris.She rushed to his office, finding only Joan inside.Joan lounged behind the CEO's desk
