The relationship she had with Zane was a contractual one, so it made sense that she wouldn't appear with him on such a significant occasion.That way, there was no need to explain too much to the world when they clarified their relationship when the time was right.Zane frowned and looked at Bianca. Obviously, her unexpected compliance surprised him. Bianca asked, "What's the matter?"Zane said, "Is there anything you want to say?""I want to know when it will end."Bianca didn't care much about the internal affairs of the Entes family. But now that Robert was gone, she wondered if it was time for the new head of the Entes family to settle in. She had been waiting for this moment!Now, she really wanted to know what the outcome was."What if he wins?" Zane suddenly took her hand. At that moment, he could feel the cold sweat in Bianca's palm. It was evident that she had never thought of letting Malcolm win.The relationship between her and Zane was like a strategic game ag
After hesitating, Zane said, "The Entes family is an abyss. You shouldn't keep staring into the abyss."Bianca was silent.An abyss? Zane regarded his own family as if it were an abyss? It was evident that in Zane's heart, that place was something else entirely.At this moment, Bianca finally understood what the sparks in the man's hand represented in the dim space of the study.That feeling, which seemed heavy to her when she didn't understand, now made sense.It was... loneliness! Even among a family with many relatives, what he felt most was still the taste of loneliness.If that wasn't the case, he wouldn't have considered leaving the Entes family all those years ago. He wouldn't have hidden away in Regal Horizons International under another identity.At that time, many people probably sought him out. However, no one would have expected that the illustrious seventh lord of the Entes family would work as an assistant at Regal Horizons International!It was a good disgu
Perhaps it would have been better if Bianca didn't mention Natalie.Whenever Natalie's name came up, a fleeting and subtle complex emotion would cross Zane's eyes.His gaze towards Bianca also grew more solemn.Bianca fell silent.So, what did Yvette's arrogant presumption amount to? Zane didn't directly respond to her question. He simply said, "She can't afford any more upheavals in her world. Now that both Irwin and Cedric are by her side, it seems the situation isn't favorable.""What's wrong with her?" Bianca asked."If nothing unexpected happens, she'll lose her sight permanently."At those words, Bianca's heart skipped a beat.Thinking about how Natalie would permanently remain in the darkness, Bianca felt suffocated.In those two years...! Under Malcolm's torment, there was a week she spent entirely in darkness, unable to see anything.No one would understand how she barely managed to survive that week. She had even thought she might never have a chance to see ligh
Bianca just stared at Yvette with cold and unyielding eyes.Yvette didn't seem to feel any pressure from Bianca's gaze. She simply said, "If you truly love him, you should know what's best for him at this moment.""The first time I met you, I thought you were quite mature!" Bianca suddenly remarked.Yvette fell silent.Mature?No matter what Yolanda said back at the gathering, Yvette remained silent. But looking back, perhaps it was simply because Yvette didn't know how to refute the older woman's words. Once given the chance to rebut, her words could be sharper than anyone's.Yvette continued to gaze coldly at Bianca. Then, she took a deep breath and said, "I don't want to make things difficult for you. Don't force my hand, okay?"Force her hand?!That was quite a statement.Bianca just continued to stare coldly at Yvette.Yvette took another deep breath. "You're not from Simeria. You don't understand what's brewing beneath the surface here.""...""Why get hurt for no
Malcolm's true nature was well-known throughout Simeria.With Robert gone now, Bianca was an existence that Malcolm detested the most. That was also before considering how the relationship between Zane and Malcolm has always been antagonistic!In this light, Malcolm may hold Zane accountable for Bianca's affairs and intensify the rift between them."Bianca, what right do you have to make him protect you like this?" Yvette raged at Bianca.Indeed.Zane was protecting Bianca.And one could only imagine the consequences for Zane to protect Bianca in this manner!Malcolm had always been vengeful.In such circumstances, things were bound to get worse.Bianca fell silent.Protecting her?Why would Zane protect her?Obviously, Bianca knew the reason!However, Yvette didn't. But in Yvette's opinion, Zane shouldn't be doing such a thing now!"Bianca, consider this as me begging you, okay?! They've hurt me once, and I can't let them hurt me again..."When Yvette reached this poi
At this moment, how could Yvette still display the elegance and gracefulness she once possessed? All her restraint had erupted, revealing Yvette's true nature.When Zane returned, there was a chilly air about him. It was undoubtedly because of the events at the funeral earlier today.The Stewart family was undoubtedly involved, so a cold glint flashed in his eyes when he saw Yvette in Verdant Villa."Why are you here?" His icy words snapped both women back to reality.Yvette turned to look at Zane as he strode towards them.When he reached them, his gaze fell upon the divorce agreement on the table.If possible, his eyes even colder.Yvette's heart leaped into her throat, and Bianca's expression didn't look any better.Zane looked at Yvette. "I told you not to come here again!"His words were icy and cutting.Yvette was silent. Her already pale face now seemed even paler, almost translucent. She stared at Zane, speechless. She was unable to react for a long time.He wa
In the end, Yvette was escorted away.Before she left, her last glance at Zane was heavy and painful. It stirred something within Bianca's heart.At that moment, Bianca seemed to instantly understand what Yvette had been concealing behind her aloof facade all these years.As they said, "You can't force what wasn't meant to be." Her unwillingness back then was genuine. Even after so many years, Yvette couldn't change anything.A woman's fate, at times, was tragic... especially when she couldn't choose her own future.Zane glanced at her, then at the divorce agreement. When he released her and reached for it, the veins on his hands were visible from his anger.Just as he was about to tear it apart, Bianca said, "Wait!"Zane turned silently to look at Bianca.She approached him and slowly took the document from his hand. Then, she said, "We'll have to sign it sooner or later.""Bianca!""I don't know what the Entes family is like now! But Robert's passing hasn't settled the
Yet she still knew that there were precious emotions in this world.Bianca approached Zane and carefully adjusted his tie. At this moment, even her breathing felt suffocating and painful! It was the first time she felt such discomfort. "I still prefer the life I used to have."The life she had when it was untouched by Malcolm.Back then, she was carefree, proud, and unrestrained. In her world, she was proud, with no hindrances. But now? This was an abyss she had never expected to experience in her lifetime."Bianca!""The Entes family is an abyss, and even Simeria is an abyss to me!" Bianca said deliberately.Everything she had was ruined the moment she set foot on the land of Simeria.Did it hurt?Yes, it did! Was it suffocating? It was! In the past, Bianca never imagined her life would have such ups and downs.She gently adjusted the man's tie and then said, "Nat's world is in turmoil. Don't let her suffer."Zane was silent, and his eyes darkened slightly
