“What's wrong? You don't want to talk about it?”Vessara lowered her gaze and met Roy's eyes, clearly seeing the reluctance and guilt in them.She quickly looked away, pretending she hadn't noticed anything, and let out a soft sigh.This was simply fate.What happened next would depend on the choice Roy made himself.After a few seconds, Roy finally spoke.“Boss, I think someone might be following me. Why don't we find somewhere else to talk?”“It's fine. We can talk here. There's nothing important around anyway.”Vessara folded her arms across her chest and stared at Roy without blinking.Knowing he was in the wrong, Roy lowered his head and stammered, “Actually, I... Boss, I really had no choice but to come to you. The base has no place for me anymore. I know I was careless in the past and caused trouble for the base. I understand why everyone dislikes me. But now, I have absolutely no standing

Dalton never expected Vessara to be so blunt. For a moment, he was caught completely off guard.Vessara merely glanced at him before frowning slightly and urging him again.“What? Cat got your tongue? I seem to remember you were perfectly fine the last time we met.”“Miss Barclay is as sharp-tongued as ever. Honestly, I never know what to say to you.”Dalton rested his forehead against one hand. The warmth in his eyes vanished, replaced by a chilling coldness. He could no longer maintain the gentle expression on his face.Vessara seemed to have expected this reaction all along. She simply curled her lips.“I didn't realize Mr. Hayes was so easy to provoke. You broke character that quickly? That's not exactly a good look for someone from the Hayes family. If I remember correctly—”“Miss Barclay!”Dalton cut her off sharply.He planted both hands on the table and leaned forward, his eyes

After glancing around a few times, Vessara returned to the room and settled back into her chair, closing her eyes to rest.But she'd barely had a moment of peace when a rhythmic knock sounded at the door.Vessara immediately recognized who it was and quickly got up to answer.The moment the door opened, Isabella's delicate, refined face appeared before her.Isabella kept her eyes lowered, but even so, she couldn't hide the sorrow in them.Vessara was a little confused.“Mrs. Barclay, why are you here so late?”“What's going on between you and the Hayes family?”After hesitating for a long while, Isabella finally gritted her teeth and forced herself to ask the question that had been bothering her.Yet she still couldn't bring herself to look directly at Vessara.Or perhaps she simply didn't know how to accept whatever explanation Vessara might give her.Vessara was equally baffled by

The man’s body jolted violently. Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and both his hands trembled uncontrollably.Even so, the voice above him remained terrifyingly cold.“What’s wrong? Mr. Don, don’t tell me you don’t know what I want. If that’s the case, then I think it’s time we settled the matter of all the money you owe me, too. Don’t you agree?”After Razen finished speaking, the man finally managed to speak in a hoarse, trembling voice.“Mr. Valdis, I... Please give me a little more time. I promise I’ll get it done. I...”“What?”Razen’s brows immediately furrowed. His fingertips slowly rubbed the rim of the glass in front of him, his voice becoming even more difficult to read.“You know I hate trouble. You’ve asked me to give you more time again and again. Don’t you think you’re asking for a little too much?”&ldq

Quentin hurriedly hung up the phone and quickly said, “Something came up at home. I may have to leave first.”“Be careful on the way. Call me if anything happens.”Razen had originally intended to go with Quentin to see what was wrong, but today was supposed to be Nathan’s welcome dinner. He couldn't simply leave, so he had no choice but to stay.Quentin nodded and quickly left.The unexpected incident put a damper on what had been a warm and cheerful atmosphere. The room suddenly became somewhat awkward.Vessara pursed her lips and glanced worriedly at Razen.The moment their eyes met, Vessara moved her lips and asked softly, “Is he really okay? He looked like he was in such a hurry.”“He should be fine.”Razen shook his head, but the gloomy look in his gray eyes betrayed his true feelings.Seeing this, Vessara didn't dare ask anything else and fell silent as well.
