Chapter 011: I Call the Shots on Hiring

Ethan Knight’s Adam’s apple bobbed, his knuckles tensing instinctively before relaxing again. "Dad, I just don't think Lisa is qualified. I'm worried she'll mess up the project." "Worried about the project? Or is this just personal?" Alexander Knight cut him off, a faint sneer playing at his lips. Winnie Carter's eyes fixed on Alexander. Her heart skipped a beat. This was her first close look at the tycoon of the elite circle. High cheekbones, a sharp, straight nose—even in a full suit, he exuded an intense, ascetic aura. She knew Alexander was young, but she wasn't prepared for how he looked in person. "Mr. Knight, that was my mistake." Annoyance flashed in Ethan's eyes, but he swallowed it. He knew his adoptive father’s temper all too well—arguing would only make things worse. "But Lisa and I... we have history. It's just not a good idea for us to work together." "Oh?" Alexander raised an eyebrow.

Chapter 012: Destiny! He's Totally Obsessed!

"Sis! Over here!" Clara Hayes waved from behind the bubbling hot pot, her cheeks flushed pink from the steam. I had just sat down when the gossip hit me. "You little seductress, spill it!" Clara leaned in, her eyes blazing. "Did you put a spell on Mr. Knight?" "You and Mr. Knight, have you already secretly gotten together?" "What are you talking about?" I picked up a slice of premium beef and dipped it into the aromatic, spicy broth. "I wish I could slip him something to make him listen. Make him back off, or just give me that raise. Now that would be nice." Clara pouted. "Liar. A man like Mr. Knight, when has he ever played favorites?" Through the hazy steam, I carefully coated the beef in my sesame and garlic dipping sauce. "When management suddenly pampers one employee, do you really think it's about care?" "Playing tough, huh?" Clara clicked her tongue. "Your proposals get approved in

Chapter 013: If the Money Isn't Enough, You Go Sleep with Him

Marcus White slammed his fist on the table."Who do you think you are?!""Lisa White, stay in line."His voice dropped to a menacing growl."Without the Whites, you're nothing but dust."Elaine White's fingers trembled with rage.She pointed a shaking finger at me.Her face flushed crimson."Lisa White, listen to yourself!""Five million dollars just like that?""We've worn ourselves out for you all these years, and this is how you repay us?""With such absurd demands?""You're selfish to the core!""Think about someone other than yourself for once!"I laughed.A sharp, mocking sound that sliced through the tension.My almond-shaped eyes crinkled with cold amusement."Why should I?""All these years, I don't recall a single person having thought about me."I spread my palms.My fingertips were pale and cold, like a debt collector who doesn't take no for an answer."Five million."

Chapter 014: Boss, Will You Protect Your Employee?

Pine Retreat Villa. Orchid Pavilion.I pushed the door open. The room buzzed with noise. Guests clinked crystal glasses. Laughter rang loud, sharp, totally fake."Oh, look who finally dragged herself here! The second daughter of the White family!"Chloe shot to her feet. She clamped a hand around my arm, nails digging in hard enough to leave marks. She hauled me straight to the empty seat next to Dylan Armstrong."Dylan's been waiting forever for you."The middle-aged men at the table traded smirks. Sleazy, knowing smirks. The kind that screamed they were all in on some dirty joke."Miss White, you're even hotter in person."Dylan flashed a grin, his eyes raking over me from head to toe. He held out a clammy hand."Your sister won't shut up about you. Says you're a real keeper."I curved my lips into a smile. The kind that never reached my eyes.I brushed his palm with my fingertips, then pulled back fast. Like I'd touched a hot stove."You

Chapter 015: Once I Indulge, I'll See It Through to the Very End

Alexander Knight didn't answer my question. Dylan Armstrong's footsteps closed in, carrying a cloying mix of bourbon and cheap floral perfume. Alexander's arm cinched tight, hauling me hard against his chest. My face smashed into his torso. My nose flooded with crisp sandalwood cologne cut by a faint whiff of cigar tobacco. Dylan stumbled over, squinting his bloodshot eyes to focus on the scene. When he made out Alexander's cold silhouette in the shadows, his drunken buzz vanished instantly. His head throbbed with sober panic. "Mr. Knight?" He forced an ingratiating smile and bowed slightly. His gaze flicked once at me in Alexander's arms, then darted away. He dared not linger. Everyone in the elite circles knew Alexander's rules. No attachments. No strangers within arm's reach. Yet here he was, holding me in a quiet, moonlit corner of the estate late at night. "Small world. Here for some fresh air?" Alexander's arm coiled

Chapter 016: Was the Kiss as Intense as It Looked?

The night wind turned cold, rippling the moon's reflection on the lake. My heart plummeted. Gerald Knight! How had he gotten here? My plan hadn't included a head-on confrontation with the ultimate authority of the Knight family so early—certainly not during what I considered the "beginner stage." If caught red-handed now, Gerald would have me eliminated without a second thought. Alexander Knight's attitude toward me remained ambiguous and uncertain—far from the point where he'd turn against his grandfather for my sake. Even with this unstable backer, I had no other choice but to leverage his influence. I tightened my arms around his neck, pressing my cheek against his soaking-wet shirt. "Mr. Knight, you'd better protect your prey." Alexander's gaze swept across the shore, his expression cooling into its usual icy calm. "Hold on tight." He lifted me in his arms and waded ashore in a few long strides. My thin, gauzy whit

Chapter 017: Henceforth, I Sever Ties and Stand Alone

Dawn was breaking when I was jolted awake by my phone buzzing insistently on the nightstand.I pried my eyes open to find the screen flooded with notifications—over ninety-nine missed calls and messages.Icons for Marcus White, Elaine White, and Chloe White flashed relentlessly, their digital barrage tinged with palpable rage, as if each one sought to claw through the screen and tear me apart.I unlocked my phone just as Elaine's call flashed like a grim harbinger.Answering slowly, I was met with a shrill voice that felt like shattering glass against my eardrum."Lisa White! What in God's name have you done?!"I held the phone away from my ear and rolled over with a lazy stretch.Marcus's thunderous roar followed immediately. "Get back here this instant!""Sure."I sat up, letting out a long, deliberate yawn."Don't forget to save me some breakfast."---By the time I returned to the White Mansion, the living room re

Chapter 018: Wow, a Hunk Party!

I slipped into the driver's seat but didn't fire the engine right away. I leaned back wearily against the seat, picking unconsciously at the steering wheel. Five million dollars sat quietly in my account, and the ashen, defeated faces of the three White family members still lingered vividly before my eyes. It was a total, unqualified victory. Yet my heart felt like it had been hollowed out-empty and achingly cold, as if a sharp wind was blowing straight through the gap. Satisfaction? It was there, but as thin and tasteless as watered-down wine. What lingered more prominently was a vague, overwhelming sense of emptiness. It was like completing a grueling, energy-draining journey, only to find that the destination was not the oasis I had anticipated. In the original plot, after Ethan Knight fully and completely sided with Winnie Carter, Chloe White had drugged me, stripped me naked without mercy, and stuffed me into Dylan Armstrong's suite with

Chapter 019: Dressed Like This for Work Guidance at Midnight?

I arched an eyebrow.Well, well-looks like the Cold Patriarch couldn't stay put?It seemed Clara Hayes, the"shipping squad leader,"was as efficient as a priority express delivery.I deliberately left him hanging for a few seconds before slowly tapping[Accept].Almost instantly, the notification"Typing..."popped up at the top of the chat box.I sipped my wine leisurely and calmly, waiting to see what sarcastic remarks the man would come up with.Three seconds later.A notification appeared, and a PDF file was abruptly sent over.The file name was cold and blunt:Cocoon-Breaking Exhibition Final Revision Comments(Execute Immediately).pdfRight after that, a text instruction followed closely.Alexander Knight:[I want the final revised draft on my desk by 9 AM tomorrow.]Concise and to the point, strictly business-like."Pfft!"The sip of wine I had just taken sprayed out immediately."Miss, are you okay?"The mal

Chapter 020: Who Needs Escorts When the Boss Is This Irresistible?

Alexander Knight pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, his eyes dark and intense behind the lenses."What does Assistant Lisa think I should wear?"I tilted my head, a faint, charming smile playing on my lips."I suggest you dress more modestly, sir. It's affecting your employees'work efficiency."Alexander's brow arched slightly."Oh? Is that so?""Last night, Assistant Lisa didn't seem to mind."My breath hitched.Fragments of last night's heated entanglement in the lake and the unrestrained kisses crashed into my mind like shards of a broken mirror."Fine,"I conceded with a helpless bitter smile, shrugging as if admitting defeat, my tone soft and compliant."You're the boss-you make the rules."A faint smile tugged at Alexander's lips. He stepped aside to clear the way."There are new slippers in the shoe cabinet."I followed his instructions, slipping into the slippers before stepping into the top-floor penthouse of Sandalw
