Edward's fingers still left a lingering warmth along my jaw when he finally pulled his hand away. The faint smile that had appeared on his lips disappeared as quickly as it had come, replaced by a rigid expression of complete control.“We're going back to the mansion now,” Edward said.His voice had turned cold again, as though the heated teasing from moments ago had merely been a figment of my imagination.He straightened the buttons of his suit before gesturing for me to walk ahead of him.I swallowed, trying to calm my still-racing heartbeat before stepping out of the office.The drive to the mansion passed in suffocating silence.Edward was busy staring at the screen of his tablet, while I chose to look out the window.My status had officially changed.I was no longer the woman James had thrown out of a cheap apartment.I was now the wife of the head of the Turner family.The black car finally came to a stop in front of the main courtyard of the Turner family mansion. The house st

Edward's office door closed firmly behind us, shutting out the noise from the Turner Group hallway.Edward's words about “celebrating the victory” still echoed in my ears.But instead of touching me, he walked over to his desk, poured his golden liquor into two small crystal glasses, and handed one to me.“To your first victory, Mrs. Turner,” Edward said quietly, tapping his glass against mine with a soft clink.I took a small sip.

"Emergency press conference at city hall," Edward's chief legal counsel repeated over the speakerphone, his voice tight with anxiety. "Arthur has brought five major news networks, Mr. Edward. He is publicly accusing you of corporate fraud, claiming your marriage to Allana is an illegal sham designed to strip James of his rightful place in the company."Edward disconnected the call without a word. The archive room fell into a heavy silence. He placed his phone on the desk and turned to face me. The cold focus in his gray eyes showed no hesitation—only a dangerous readiness for war."Arthur is moving faster than expected," Edward said, his tone perfectly flat.I didn't step back. A cold, quiet smile touched my lips as I adjusted the lapel of my tailored black blazer. The anxiety that used to control me had completely vanished, replaced by an absolute resolve to take back what was mine."Good," I replied, looking straight into his eyes.
