Evelyn turned around, trembling slightly with a cold she couldn’t control. Roman was still murmuring restlessly, his brows furrowed deeply as if heavily disturbed by whatever haunted his dreams. Just to be sure of what she'd heard, she leaned closer to him again, her ear almost touching his lips.The whispered words became clearer, his voice was filled with a kind of longing pain she’d never heard from him before."Please... Avery... shouldn't have left... left you... come back to me, Avery... Avery… I miss you..."Evelyn's blood turned cold. She swallowed a lump forming in her throat, trying desperately to compose herself as his words echoed in her mind. Her chest tightened until she could barely breathe. He still held her tight in his unconscious grip. She forcefully pried his arm away and slipped from his embrace, quickly escaping to the bathroom where she locked the door behind her.She breathed heavily, staring at her pale reflection in the mirror, her eyes were filled with someth

Leo felt like he was about to have a mental breakdown when he saw his boss emerge from the kitchen, still glaring at him with murderous intent. ‘Why does he always hold grudges like this?’ Leo cried silently.“B-boss,” he stammered. “Do you still need anything from me?”Roman looked at him with a deadpan expression that could freeze hell over. "I need you to explain why you felt the need to barge into my kitchen. Do you work there?"“N-no,boss! I just came because the house was so quiet, and I smelled food, so I thought—”“The house was quiet,” Roman cut in, his voice dangerously smooth. “And that wasn’t your cue to leave and come back at an appropriate time?”Leo’s mouth opened and closed like a fish. He let out a weak awkward laugh, in a desperate attempt to lighten the mood. But his nervous laughter only seemed to darken Roman's expression, like storm clouds gathering before a hurricane.Leo swallowed hard, then braced himself, as he decided to give a reasonable explanation to clea

Roman held Richard's hand tight, crushing it with relentless pressure. A dark, menacing aura emanated from him, his intense eyes locked on Richard in a deadly stare.Richard couldn't even grasp the features of the person crushing his hand—the pain was too overwhelming. He trembled, his body instantly drenched in cold sweat as the pain consumed him."AHHHH!!" he screamed again when he felt his hand being twisted further. He could no longer breathe properly, his vision blacking out from the excruciating pain.That piercing scream woke everyone from their shocked state.Evelyn turned to look at the person who had unexpectedly saved her from her father's violence. She could feel Roman's cold, dark aura radiating from him, and she could sense that he was genuinely furious. She had never seen him in this state before—he'd always appeared so calm, gentle, and controlled. Seeing him like this stunned her more than her father's agonized screaming.Claire, who had been watching from the side, q

Maya looked at her dad dumbfounded. "Dad, what are you talking about?""Honey, what's going on?" Claire asked, equally confused.Richard slowly walked to a chair and collapsed into it heavily. "The accident... it was far worse than we realized. The only reason we walked away without a scratch was... the truck driver."Maya frowned, unsure she understood. "The... driver?"Richard's lips pressed into a thin line. "He swerved at the last second to avoid hitting us head-on. If he hadn't, none of us would be here right now." His voice cracked, betraying the strain he'd been holding back.Claire's voice trembled. "But... he's okay, right?"Richard shook his head slowly. "No. He's in critical condition. The doctors said he may never walk properly again. Even if he survives, his life is completely ruined."Maya's eyes widened. "That's... that's terrible! But we didn't get hurt, so at least we're okay, right?"Richard's good hand clenched into a fist on his knee. "Yes, we're physically okay. B

Lena was lounging on her bed, munching on a bag of chips, when her phone buzzed. She glanced at the caller ID and frowned. She really didn’t want to answer. But she had no choice."Hi, Dad.""Hey, you little rascal, did you go on that date I arranged with the young man from the Adler family?"Lena sighed loudly. “You know the answer. Why even ask?” She pulled the phone away from her ear.Just as she expected, her father’s furious shout came through the speaker. She waited for a while.After a moment, Lena finally brought the phone back to her ear."Hey, hey, Williams, don't you get tired of screaming and babysitting after all these years? If you keep shouting, your blood pressure will spike, and you'll get me in trouble," she said calmly."And whose fault is that? You never stop annoying and making me worry!" William, Lena's father, yelled.“Dad, why don’t you just focus on your law firm and leave my love life alone? I’m old enough to choose who I date. That creep from the Adler famil
