Theron looked at her pale face-so pale it looked almost transparent-and something in his chest twisted violently."I'm sorry," he said, his voice low. "I'm late."Scarlett pressed her lips together, forcing strength into her tone."I don't need your apology. I-"Her vision suddenly blurred.Everything went black.Her body tilted backward."Lettie!" Marie rushed forward to catch her.But before she could reach her, a hand was already there.Theron caught Scarlett and pulled her into his arms.His grip was firm but impossibly careful, like he was holding something fragile that might break if he used even slightly too much force. His palm supported her waist, steadying her completely.Scarlett's lashes trembled as she struggled to stay conscious."I don't need your help... I can-""Stop talking," Theron cut her off. "You're seriously injured. I'm taking you to the hospital.""Let go of me!" she tried to push him away

Soon, the food was delivered.After a quick wash-up, Theron picked up the bowl, scooped a spoonful, and tested the temperature."Perfect. You can eat it now."Scarlett looked at the spoon-and at his lips, which still had traces of congee on them.Something about the scene felt... strange."Thank you," she said, reaching out for the bowl."You're injured. I'll feed you," he said flatly."My injury is on my leg, not my hand.""Same thing."He brought the spoon toward her.Scarlett: "..."What kind of logic is that?She really wanted to roll her eyes at him. If he wanted to feed her, at least come up with a more believable excuse."I'll do it myself." She took the bowl and spoon from him.But as she looked at the spoonful of congee, she froze.He had just used it.That meant-Indirect kiss.If she got another spoon, it would look like she was overthinking it. But if she ate this one, wasn't that e

Three days later.Scarlett was finally able to get out of bed.The room was covered in soft carpets now, so walking barefoot felt comfortable.Strangely enough, when she first arrived, there hadn't been any carpets at all. Now, every floor was covered in them-especially in her room, where the carpet was noticeably thicker and softer."You're up already?"Theron walked in carrying a bowl of freshly made chicken soup."I'm fine now. I can walk on my own." Scarlett shifted her feet slightly."The doctor said you need at least a week of bed rest."Before she could finish, Theron strode over, lifted her into his arms, and carried her back to the bed.Once again, he set her down gently.She glanced at the soup, then at him.Over the past few days, both Theron and little Theo had taken turns taking care of her-bringing her food, protein shakes, vitamins... nonstop. At this rate, she felt like she was going to be force-fed into immobili

That evening, Scarlett brought Theo and Theron to the small Monroe residence.Amy was delighted the moment she saw him."Oh, Theron! Eat more, don't be shy!" she said warmly, serving him a piece of meat.Theron?Louie felt a strange twitch every time he heard that name.If his mother knew this "Theron" was actually the CEO of the Cross Corp, he wondered what her reaction would be.Before he could finish that thought-"Thank you, Mom," Theron said naturally.Louie's fork slipped. The food dropped straight back into his plate.Even Scarlett looked at him speechlessly.They weren't even officially anything yet, and he was already calling her "Mom"?This man really had no shame."Lettie, you don't like bitter melon, right?" Amy said as she placed a piece into her plate. "It's very good for your health. Eat one today."Scarlett stared at the green vegetable like it was a threat.Her face turned almost the same color.

The security team captain turned his head-and froze at the scene."Deputy Minister, what happened to you?"Before Leomord could even say anything, his eyes met Scarlett's calm, unreadable gaze.Just one look.And his knees almost gave out.Scarlett gave him a subtle glance-barely noticeable-clearly signaling him not to reveal her identity.Leomord immediately understood. He remembered Howard's earlier instructions.The captain called again, confused. "Deputy Minister Leo? Deputy Minister Leo?""Ah? Oh-right, I'm fine," Leomord said quickly, forcing himself to stay calm. "Just... my hand slipped. Handle your case.""Alright." The captain nodded, then turned to his men. "Arrest her."The moment those words came out-Leomord's phone slipped from his hand and hit the ground again.Cold sweat poured down his back instantly.He swallowed hard."You're just going to arrest her like that? Aren't you even going to ask what
