Adrian forced a smile. "Tristan, hear me out. I was just joking around earlier! You can't take it seriously!""But I wasn't joking. I was serious about it," Tristan replied with an easy smile. "Everyone here heard our bet.""That's right!" Stanley chimed in, casually rolling the stress balls in his palm. "I heard it with my own ears. You lost, so you have to follow through!"He swept his gaze across the guests. "Did the rest of you hear it?""We did!" everyone answered, nodding in unison.Fixing Adrian with a stern glare, Stanley barked, "Since everyone heard it, you'd better get ready to do a handstand and drink toilet water!""No!" Adrian shook his head frantically. "I'm not doing it! I was just kidding!"Stanley sneered. "If you don't want to do that, sure. We can shove these up your ass instead."The moment the words left his mouth, four burly bodyguards lunged forward, pinning Adrian flat against the deck.Stanley slammed the stress balls onto the floor right before Adria

Utterly defeated, Claire and Adrian slunk back to the Grayson residence.Anxious and frantic, Miranda immediately pressed, "Claire, did Sierra agree to help us?"Clamping her hands over her ears, Claire shouted in frustration, "Mom, can you just leave me alone? I'm in the worst mood imaginable!"Miranda turned her frantic gaze toward Adrian. "What on earth happened?"Consumed by rage, he ground his teeth. "It's all because of that shameless bastard Tristan! He actually became Sierra's boy toy now. Of course she wouldn't help us!""What?" Venom flashed in Miranda's eyes. "That worthless deadbeat! How dare he be so shameless as to cheat on Clair while they were still married!"Just then, Sheldon trudged into the house, looking utterly dejected.A terrible sense of foreboding gripped Miranda. "What happened now? Why do you look so miserable?"Sheldon let out a heavy sigh."Our family is doomed! Completely ruined! The Thorntons put out the word that anyone who dares to do business

The person resting beneath the soil was the love of Heath's life, Eliza Black. She passed away from cancer three years ago.Heath and Eliza had been childhood sweethearts. They had been classmates all the way through middle school and high school. During their senior year, they finally confessed their feelings and made their relationship official.After graduation, Heath enlisted in the military, and Eliza promised that she would wait for his return so they could get married. Years later, after earning distinction for his valor in the Fenrir unit, Heath was reassigned to Ravelton as deputy commander.Just as he had been about to surprise Eliza with the news, he was struck with the devastating revelation that she had already succumbed to cancer. Heath was heartbroken. He spent an entire year drowning in grief before he could begin to pull himself together.Eliza had been gone for three years now. Throughout those three years, Heath visited her grave every single month to share his

One of the bodyguards nodded, crouched down, and picked up a jagged stone from the ground. He repeatedly slammed it into Heath's legs with brutal force.Heath's agonized screams echoed through the sky. Beads of cold sweat burst across his forehead.Matilda let out a shrill laugh, a cruel smile curling on her lips. "I gave you the chance to sell me this plot, and you refused. Now, I'm going to make you watch with your own eyes as I tear this grave to pieces!"She walked over to the headstone and stared at Eliza's portrait. "Well, well! Look at this pretty little bitch!""Don't you dare insult Eli!" Heath roared hoarsely.Matilda scoffed, turning back to her men. "What are you all standing for? Move and smash this bitch's grave!""Yes, ma'am!" The bodyguards sprang into motion. They jogged over to an SUV parked nearby, taking out shovels and heavy sledgehammers from the trunk, and charged back toward Eliza's grave."No! Stop! You can't do this!" Heath screamed desperately, his hea

Lily's retort, however, was like a dagger plunging straight into Claire's heart. "Wake up, Claire! Are you still lost in your delusions? Let me break it to you. The company is in total chaos now. The staff is panicking, and everyone is scrambling to resign. Grayson Group is doomed! I only called to give you formal notice. I quit!" With that, Lily hung up.Every word hit a nerve, sending a surge of blind fury through Claire's body. Clutching her phone so tightly that her knuckles turned white, she seethed. "Y-You'll regret this!"Miranda's stomach dropped, and she asked anxiously, "Claire? What happened now?"Claire's face had drained of color. As if crushed by an invisible weight, she slumped weakly onto the couch, clutching her head in despair."Claire, say something!" Miranda's voice wavered, close to tears, as she paced in frantic circles.Just then, Henry's voice boomed like thunder. "I don't give a damn about your family drama! I'm telling you right now.
