James nearly fell.Furious, he looked up to see who had dared touch him.And then he froze.The man standing there was devastatingly handsome, standing at around 6'2".Sharp brows. Dark, intense eyes. Impeccable posture.James had always considered himself attractive-most people agreed.But standing in front of this man, he felt painfully ordinary."You're here?"Scarlett and Theron asked at the same time."I came here-"They spoke again in perfect sync, then both paused.A beat of silence.Then they looked at each other and smiled faintly."Scarlett, who is he?" James raised his voice, clearly irritated."None of your business," Scarlett replied flatly.At that moment, she noticed Darrel peeking out from the Ocean View Room.She glanced at him and thought:'So he's the Grandson of the State Leader?'Not bad looking.But that zebra-print suit...She really couldn't bring herself to co

Scarlett glanced back at the room.Blankets half dragging on the floor. Dust everywhere. It looked like no one had touched it in years."This is what you call cleaned?""Aunt Fia!"A woman in her forties walked out from the kitchen. "Miss, you called me?"Her tone was polite on the surface, but her eyes carried obvious disdain.A country girl from the countryside-did she really think she deserved proper service?In her mind, she was just a servant from the capital. That already made her superior.Scarlett saw everything clearly.Five years ago, when she first came to this house, everyone looked at her the same way.But that was then.Now-She was not someone they could step on anymore."You cleaned my room?" Scarlett asked flatly."Yes, I did," Aunt Fia replied without hesitation. "Is there a problem?"Scarlett narrowed her eyes slightly."So this is your definition of cleaning?" Her voice turned cold. "

Aunt Fia's face twisted.Her pride screamed at her not to do it.But reality forced her down.If she didn't, she would be gone.After a long struggle, she finally gritted her teeth and lowered her head."Miss... I was wrong. Please forgive me. I won't do it again."Silence.Then-Scarlett smiled faintly."Fine. I'm generous. This time, I'll let it go."Aunt Fia's eyes burned with hatred as she stood up.She swore in her heart-Just wait.One day, she would get her revenge.Before dinner, Scarlett made a video call.On the screen, a small face lit up instantly."Mommy! Are you coming tonight?""I won't make it tonight," Scarlett said.The child's face visibly fell."But tomorrow afternoon you'll be discharged. I'll pick you up, and we'll go eat street food at the night market. Want to go?"The sadness vanished instantly."Yes! Yes!! I want to go!!"The child was practically g

A few minutes later, with the noodles steeping beside him, he opened his laptop.His fingers hovered over the keyboard.Then began typing.Chapter 876...That's right.Michael was writing a novel.He had always been alone in his room, writing stories just to pass the time. What started as a distraction slowly turned into something he genuinely loved-the quiet rhythm of typing, the unfolding of every plot twist he created with his own hands.Even better, people started to notice.More and more readers fell in love with his work. Every novel he published went viral across major platforms. Some were even adapted into live-action dramas and games, gaining a massive fanbase.Recently, SH Entertainment had reached out through his editor about adapting one of his novels into a TV series-The Legend of Abandoned Prince.That one meant the most to him.It told the story of a boy born incomplete, who clawed his way up from nothing, seizing

At the food street, they stopped at a small, old spaghetti stand.The tables were scratched and uneven, the chairs slightly crooked-the kind of place Theron would normally pass without a second glance.But she had already taken a seat."Three plates of spaghetti," she called out casually.Then she looked up at him. "Try it. This place is really good. I used to come here all the time."Used to?Theron's brows drew together slightly.Why would someone like her have been eating at a place like this?Before he could dwell on it, the owner came over with a warm smile, setting down the plates."You haven't been here in over five years, have you? You've gotten thinner," he said kindly. "I added an extra egg for you. On the house.""Thank you," she replied with a faint smile.And just as she spoke-A black card slid into view in front of her."A black card?"Scarlett stared at it, puzzled.Why was he giving her this?
