At Valdis Group headquarters, Selena paused in front of the building and carefully adjusted her hair. Only after ensuring she looked flawless did she head toward the elevators.The receptionist, who was usually friendly, seemed strangely nervous when she saw her approach."Miss Laurent," she said hurriedly. "Are you here to see Mr. Valdis? Did you make an appointment?"Selena's expression darkened instantly."Open your eyes and look carefully. I'm the future Mrs. Valdis." She lifted her chin arrogantly. "Since when do I need permission to come here?"The receptionist looked as though she wanted to say more, but Selena had already stepped into the elevator. Just before the doors closed, she rolled her eyes dramatically.Only after the elevator disappeared did the receptionist let out a breath of relief.She quickly slipped into an empty break room and dialed a familiar number."The fish took the bait," she reported with a grin. "Selena just went upstairs. The show should be starting an

"What do you think you're doing?"A furious voice cut through the crowd."Are you trying to hurt that child?"Vessara looked up to find a man in his thirties pushing his way forward. His shirt was slightly wrinkled, but his hair was meticulously styled, and the expression on his face suggested he had just caught a criminal in the act."I'm trying to save him."Her gaze flicked back to the boy, whose condition was visibly deteriorating."Move."The last thing she wanted was to waste time arguing.Instead of stepping aside, the man planted himself directly in front of her."What exactly do you think you're doing?" he demanded."I told you. I'm trying to save him."The man snorted. "And I'm a doctor."Straightening his coat, he added, "Associate Chief of Emergency Medicine at General Hospital."The title immediately drew attention from the surrounding crowd.His gaze swept dismissively over Vessara."Unlike some half-trained amateur, I actually know what I'm talking about. The child is e

Inside the Quinn family's private suite, the atmosphere was suffocating.For the first time in years, Theodore Quinn's usually gentle face was clouded with anger. The temperature in the room seemed to drop several degrees, and no one dared speak."What happened?" he demanded. His cane struck the floor with a sharp crack. "Wasn't Dr. V supposed to come? Then why did she leave?"The pressure in the room was enough to make several people lower their heads.An assistant swallowed nervously."Sir... Dr. V said that she and the Quinn family weren't destined to meet."Theodore's expression darkened immediately."She was on her way here just fine before!" he thundered. "Investigate immediately. I want to know exactly what happened."The outburst triggered a violent coughing fit. Several attendants rushed forward with water, and only after he had finally calmed down did another voice break the silence."Grandfather."Kieran Quinn slowly rose from his chair, a trace of helplessness in his pale

Successfully infiltrating Skyreach Tower should have felt like a victory.Instead, Vessara leaned against a wall and let out a long breath. Only then did she realize her back was damp with sweat.Talking to someone like Razen—someone who had spent years surviving in brutal environments overseas—was mentally exhausting.After finding a secluded corner, she quickly adjusted her disguise and slumped against the cold wall.A wave of regret suddenly hit her.She had gone through all this trouble to get inside and still hadn't found the person she was looking for.If this turned out to be a wasted trip, she was going to lose her mind.For a brief moment, she considered collapsing dramatically onto the floor and crawling around in despair.Then she immediately rejected the idea.Not elegant enough.Maybe Roy could do it instead.The mental image was ridiculous enough to make her laugh.Outside, guests continued flowing through the venue, completely unaware of the hidden figure tucked away ne

At that exact moment, a familiar voice drifted over.Vessara had arrived.Her brows knitted together almost immediately.Martin really wasn't afraid of choking on his own arrogance.Still, one detail caught her attention.Master Sagewood knew Selena?That alone was surprising.Had Selena somehow become far more capable during the years they had been apart? Or had Master Sagewood's standards collapsed while Vessara wasn't looking?The thought was so absurd that she almost laughed.Before she could dwell on it any further, Claire turned around.The moment she spotted Vessara, her expression changed dramatically."You again?!"The shrill outburst immediately attracted attention from nearby guests.Vessara grimaced."Seriously?" She folded her arms. "You people are allowed to be here, but I can't?"Claire's expression darkened. "Your status is different now."The words dripped with disdain.She stepped closer and looked Vessara up and down."So tell me, what exactly are you doing here?"T
