"Thank you."Once they were out of Tayne Marsh's line of sight, Gwen Grayson pulled away from Tim's embrace.Tim looked at her pale face, a little worried. "Are you okay? Don't let what that jerk said get to you."Maybe it was Jace Bennett's words that had cut deep. Or maybe it was Tayne Marsh's presence that made her feel so small and worthless. Either way, Tim's kindness broke something inside her, and tears spilled down her cheeks.Watching those crystalline drops fall one after another from her pale face stirred something unfamiliar in Tim's chest.He felt like a heavy stone was pressing on his heart.Those few tears threw Tim into a complete panic. "Don't cry. If you're still mad, I'll go drag that bastard back here so you can beat him up yourself—how about that?"Instead, Gwen only cried harder.Tim paced like a headless chicken, completely lost. "You really shouldn't take what a guy like that says to heart. Everyone meets a scumbag or two these days. And how many couples actual

Lana Rose had hated him for killing her child—so he would give her another one.Caesor chatted with a few acquaintances for a while, then crossed paths with Lucian Grayson.He deliberately stopped and greeted him. "Uncle Lucian."Lucian Grayson was Xavier Grayson's father, and Caesor was Xavier's close friend—it wasn't out of line for him to address him that way.But Lucian Grayson's cold gaze swept past Caesor's face without pausing, and he brushed right by him without a word.Caesor's brow furrowed. There had been a hint of malice in Lucian Grayson's eyes just now.Why?He couldn't figure it out, so he decided he'd call Gerald later to ask. For now, he was ready to leave—without Nan Qin around, the whole thing felt dull.Caesor scanned the room but couldn't find Tim anywhere. Instead, he spotted Ava Adam sitting alone in a corner, her face dark, eyes fixed unblinkingly on the dance floor.He glanced toward the floor, then adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses with a slender hand and walk

Ava Adam hit the floor hard, her body slamming against the solid ground. The pain made her grit her teeth.But compared to the humiliation she was suffering right now, the physical pain meant nothing. What stung the most was Seth Rollins's reaction.Even a complete stranger would have reached out to catch her in that situation—let alone someone she'd once been with."Ava."Tayne Marsh pushed through the crowd and rushed to help her up. "Where are you hurt? Let me take you to the hospital."Ava Adam ignored him completely, her eyes burning with hatred as she stared at Caesor. This man had been playing her all along.Then her gaze shifted to Chloe Bishop beside him, and her expression turned even uglier. She should have known—this man was in cahoots with Chloe Bishop.That bitch had teamed up with Caesor to humiliate her!Caesor and Chloe Bishop had stopped dancing because of the commotion.Even Caesor hadn't expected Seth Rollins to be so cold. Ava Adam was a beautiful woman—practicall

Tayne Marsh watched Ava Adam's retreating figure and slowly lowered his fist. He wiped the blood from his mouth, then shot Xavier Grayson and Caesor a cold, mocking smile before turning away.He chased after her out of Bishop Villa, but she was already in the car.Exhausted, he crouched by the roadside. Blood still trickled from his nose and the corner of his mouth. Beneath his clothes, his body was a patchwork of purple bruises, aching terribly. His chest ached too—numb with pain.He had thought that once Ava Adam accepted his proposal, they would grow closer. He had believed that her willingness to be intimate with him meant she had feelings for him.But now, he finally saw the truth. Ava Adam didn't love him. When he fought with Caesor, she didn't worry for him. When he was covered in wounds, she didn't feel a thing for him.Otherwise, how could she leave him behind like that and walk away alone?She only cared about herself.She couldn't see his efforts at all.Tayne Marsh felt de

That night, Chloe Bishop listened to Liam Martin and Justin Taylor reminisce about the old days—things she'd once wanted to hold onto forever, memories she'd once treasured dearly. Now, they all felt so far away.She listened quietly, watching them laugh, and she laughed along with them.But only she knew that those memories no longer stirred even the faintest ripple in her heart.Liam Martin's legs still had no feeling, but he had to be discharged. The Martin Group had piled up a mountain of work waiting for him, and Brandon Jay and Sara Jay could no longer be kept in the dark."I'll come pick you up with Justin after work tomorrow," Chloe told Liam. "I'll ask my grandfather to try acupuncture on you."Liam's gentle smile was like a spring breeze. "Alright."It was already very late when Chloe got back from the hospital. She pushed open the door—and saw a familiar figure sitting by her bed...Xavier Grayson?What was he doing here?She closed the door behind her but stayed where she

"Chloe… just wait a little longer. Wait for me…"Once he had cut off all of Lucian Grayson's allies, his father would no longer be a threat to anyone.That was the best solution he could think of—for now."Xavier… can I still trust you?"Chloe Bishop felt lost. There were too many grievances between them.If Xavier ever found out that Lana Rose and her father had been the ones who struck back at Lucian Grayson and sent him to prison back then—would he still say these words to her?Bam!The door was suddenly shoved open.Mrs. Bishop stood there, her face burning with fury as she stared at Xavier and Chloe. "What are you doing—""Mom?"Chloe's face went pale. She pulled away from Xavier's embrace.Xavier looked at Mrs. Bishop, his expression calm. "Auntie.""Don't you call me that. Why are you in Chloe's room?"Mrs. Bishop was livid. Her eyes full of pain, she turned to her daughter. "Why is he here? Have you forgotten how he threw you out back then? Why can't you remember the pain, onl

His and Chloe Bishop's son?Xavier Grayson stared at the pink, chubby baby on the screen, then shot Caesor a cold glare. "That's a terrible Photoshop job."Who asked you to critique the editing?That's not the point!Caesor touched his swollen lip. "Just look at it—doesn't it give you any ideas? Don't you want to make a real one with Chloe Bishop?"The problem was, Chloe Bishop wouldn't even let him touch her right now.Xavier felt the sting of that truth. "We're still young. Unlike you and Nora."They hadn't even properly started their life as a couple yet, and Caesor was already talking about kids?Caesor felt like he'd just been stabbed in the chest. "You're ruthless."He and Nora weren't getting any younger. Looked like they'd need to speed things up.A man had to be firm sometimes, right?Then Xavier said, "Send me the photo."Caesor raised an eyebrow, a hint of mischief glinting behind his gold-rimmed glasses.Xavier soon received the photo—along with a bonus one.Caesor started

She'd thought that if she got drunk, at least someone would take her home. Who knew Tim would pass out that fast?In the end, she was the one who had to take care of him.It took Gwen Grayson a great deal of patience to finally get Tim's address out of him. Out of a sense of gratitude, she drove him home."Who are you?"An elderly woman opened the door, eyeing Gwen with confusion."Auntie, I'm Gwen Grayson. A friend of Tim's."Gwen pointed at the car parked outside. "Tim's drunk. Could you have someone help him inside to rest?""The young lord?"The old servant hurried out worriedly, then turned back to Gwen with a troubled look. "Miss Gwen, it's just me, an old woman, here. You see..."Gwen sighed. "...It's fine. I've got strength. I'll do it."By the time she'd helped Tim back to his room, Gwen was completely out of breath. And the drunk Tim was utterly insufferable—he'd draped his arms and legs right over her.Gwen had no energy left. She let him use her as a pillow for a moment.T

"Oh, my goodness..."Grandma Rollins felt like she was about to faint.Mrs. Rollins quickly steadied her. "Mom, what's wrong?"Grandma Rollins threw the door wide open and pointed at the two bare-shouldered men on the bed, wailing in anguish. "See for yourself! This is just heartbreaking..."Mrs. Rollins took one look and felt her vision swim, her hands trembling.Caesor was woken by the commotion. He sat up with a frown, the blanket falling away to reveal a body covered in bruises and marks.That did it. Grandma Rollins burst into sobs. "Oh, my dear husband... I've failed you... I have no face to see you in the afterlife..."Mrs. Rollins was pale as a sheet, tears streaming down her face as well.Caesor calmly lifted his leg and kicked the still-snoring Tim straight off the bed.Thud.Tim jolted awake, his entire body aching.Grandma Rollins took one look at Tim—wearing nothing but a pair of boxer briefs, his skin smooth and unmarked—then at Caesor's battered body, and wailed even mo

After that outburst, Grandma Rollins stormed off in a huff.Behind her, Mrs. Rollins couldn't help adding one more thing to Tim. "Make sure she's female."Tim covered his face and groaned in agony. "God... Caesor, what kind of disaster have you unleashed?"Meanwhile, Gwen Grayson was still fast asleep in her own bed, completely oblivious to the fact that her good intentions had caused such a mess.Pregnancy made her sleepy, so Chloe Bishop woke up much later than usual that morning. Fortunately, she still made it to the routine meeting on time.In the afternoon, she left work right on the dot. Justin Taylor was already waiting for her downstairs.At the hospital, Chloe Bishop saw Sara Jay again.It had been some time since their last encounter, and Sara Jay had changed completely. She was dressed elegantly, her features refined, her complexion rosy. She looked every bit the proper lady from a distinguished family—nothing like the timid, shrinking girl she used to be.Brandon Jay was t
