In the middle of the night.

Heat—endless heat.

Chloe kicked off the blanket, freed herself from Lionel's grasp, and wiped the sweat from her forehead. Her heart raced, feeling tight in her chest, and her back itched intensely. She scratched at it fiercely.

When her fingers brushed over a hard bump, panic surged within her. Oh no, she was definitely having an allergic reaction.

The itching spread all over her body, making her feel restless. In the dark, she touched several more bumps.

This was bad!

Without medication, she would be utterly tormented!

She switched on the bedside lamp, unable to resist scratching a few more times. It felt like breathing itself was becoming a struggle.

They had only just settled down when Lionel, perhaps exhausted from earlier, didn't wake when she turned on the light. As he slept, the harsh lines of his face softened, his lips forming a faint smile of satisfaction.

Suddenly, her stomach churned violently. Forgetting her shoes, Chloe jumped out of bed and

    Since Chloe had an allergic reaction to seafood, all the food over the past few days had been light, with no trace of anything spicy.Florence, with her picky palate accustomed to gourmet meals, found this bland food, which seemed more suited for a sick person, unbearable after a few meals. Each time it was mealtime, she was nowhere to be seen at the table. She would rather go hungry than eat the food prepared.The chef could have made some delicious dishes just for her, but Lionel had ordered a complete removal of all allergens, banning any spicy food, even its scent. As a result, no ingredients that went against Lionel's strict instructions were purchased.Florence's plan to have the chef prepare something separately was dashed. When it became unbearable, she had the driver take her out to feast at a fancy restaurant. However, she had no friends in Westridge, and even the best food lost its flavor when eaten alone.Lionel always claimed she was his most treasured sister, but clearly

    Paradiso.Thanks to Lionel, Geoffrey had been so busy lately that he hadn't had any time for his usual indulgences.The Bureau of Investigation was reopening the case on Paradiso, and he had to run a thorough internal review before they got involved. With the billions he'd invested in that vast property, it was rumored he might only recover a fraction of the cost—if he was lucky. Worst-case scenario, he wouldn't get anything back.That morning, his father had chewed him out viciously."Serves you right! You bit off more than you could chew. Now look at you—no deal, no bone, and you've cracked a tooth. And for what? Women are a dime a dozen, but you had to go and mess with that woman? Don't you dare drag our family down with you!"Geoffrey was seething. He hadn't expected his father to find out about that, but he knew exactly who had spilled the beans without even needing to think.Lionel. That ungrateful bastard! Geoffrey had saved his woman, and instead of showing any gratitude, Lion

    On the other side, the enormous shopping mall was bustling with people. The countless brand-name counters, illuminated by the dazzling lights from the ceiling, reflected off the polished marble floors, making the whole mall even more glamorous.Chloe and Florence stopped in front of a women's clothing brand counter.Standing side by side, the two presented a stark contrast: Florence was glamorous and eye-catching, while Chloe had a more subtle and elegant look. Florence's "princess" image immediately made Chloe appear as a mere backdrop.The sales associate's eyes lit up the moment she saw the luxury clothing and expensive jewelry on Florence.Jackpot!She latched onto Florence with warmth and enthusiasm, flattering her endlessly, making Florence beam with satisfaction, as sweet as if she'd eaten honey.Florence indulged in the attention, trying on clothes after clothes without hesitation.Chloe, on the other hand, sat off to the side, merely an ornament in the scene.Another sales as

    Inside the fitting room, Chloe tossed the clothes carelessly onto the floor. The resentment that had built up from all the scorn, disdain, and humiliation made her feel like a balloon about to burst.If she didn't vent today, she wouldn't be able to move on!Sitting on the sofa, Chloe pulled out her phone, the new one Lionel had gotten her as compensation. That night, Lionel had tried to teach her how to use it, but she hadn't really paid attention. After fiddling with it a few times on her own, she realized how powerful it was.She had yet to use the phone to call anyone, and now, as if in frustration, she unlocked the screen—but her fingers froze.Who was she going to call? Lionel? To ask him to come to her rescue?To Lionel, she was merely a woman he shared a bed with. If she called him for help, what would his reaction be?Would he sneer and ignore her? Or rush over like a knight in shining armor?She mulled over these thoughts, a self-mocking smile playing on her lips. The latter

    In the shopping mall.Chloe hung up the phone, casually grabbed a dress, and stepped out of the fitting room.In front of the mirror, Chloe nearly dazzled a few sales assistants with her appearance. Her previous outfit was nice, but this new design was elegant and luxurious, seemingly more suited to her temperament.With her graceful figure, the dress—though not a formal gown—still exuded an air of sophistication. It accentuated her beautiful curves and full bust, while her long hair cascaded down one shoulder. Though her crystal earrings weren't particularly expensive, they complemented her look perfectly.She was poised and elegant, her eyes shimmering like water, her pink lips slightly pursed and glossy. Her arms were as smooth and white as cream, long and delicate.Truly, she radiated grace and nobility!The sales assistants couldn't help but swallow hard, amazed that this woman could wear the outfit with such regal flair.In their eyes, the fiery spark of envy ignited.

    "Who are you?" A few salesgirls were taken aback by Lionel's imposing presence, stammering slightly, but their eyes sparkled with admiration."Why are you here?" Florence exclaimed, rushing toward her brother, attempting to grab his arm. Lionel ignored her completely, sidestepping her grasp as he made his way to Chloe.Chloe let out a heavy sigh. She hadn't expected him to show up in person! Even though she knew he would, a hint of surprise crossed her face, soon replaced by joy."Oh, my husband is here!" She blinked, sending a subtle signal to him, her demeanor softening.Her beautiful eyes glimmered, and she gently grasped Lionel's arm, acting sweetly.Husband?!Goodness, such a tall, handsome man is this woman's husband? Wasn't she supposed to be a mistress?The salesgirls nearly gasped in disbelief.Lionel's eye twitched. This woman could act without batting an eyelash!

    That night, Chloe lay in bed, still feeling like everything that had happened during the day was just a dream.She only wanted to let off some steam, but things had escalated way beyond her expectations.She caused someone to lose their job, brought down a manager, and even ended up with her own personal counter!Heavens, this was a bit too much.She had heard of Lionel's ruthless decisiveness in business, but had he really gone that far today?Sure, she didn't mind him managing his subordinates or punishing his employees; after all, a massive conglomerate needed structure. But… giving her a dedicated counter?She knew Lionel was likely trying to spoil her, but it left her feeling uneasy."What's wrong? Still not satisfied with today?" Lionel tossed aside the towel and lay down, his tall figure dominating the space."Lionel, are you really being kind to me?" Chloe asked, frowning slightly, a bit naive in her tone.Lionel was stunned for a moment. Was she being dense today? He had set

    As the thought flashed through Lionel's mind, he became more certain.The woman beside him now, the one lying in his bed, wasn't Flora Miler—it was Chloe Miler, the woman who was supposed to be dead.With that realization, his mind cleared, but his heart raced uncontrollably.He prided himself on being able to see through people, so why hadn't he recognized her sooner? Was it because their identical faces had deceived him?The closer he got to Chloe, the more he felt himself losing control, being drawn in by her. He knew she had drugged him and climbed into his bed with ulterior motives; he knew she had worked at a bar.For a man of his status, such attraction was disgraceful, even contemptible—he despised himself for it.The more he tried to ignore her, the more he wanted to be near her. This internal conflict left him, a man who was almost always invincible, feeling powerless and defeated.His rational mind had urged him to not look at her, not to figure her out, but that was precis

    "Geoffrey, take me to my mom's." Chloe finally looked at Geoffrey for the first time.Since getting into Geoffrey's car, she had been lost in her thoughts, completely unaware of Geoffrey's gaze as he scrutinized her."Did you two argue?" Geoffrey's voice was low and hoarse, filled with a deep, painful concern as he looked at Chloe.Seeing the redness around her eyes made his heart ache, as if thousands of needles were running through his veins, causing him sharp, excruciating pain."No." Chloe took a deep breath and answered calmly."Don't lie to me. Chloe, you don't lie." Geoffrey grabbed Chloe's hand and said, "I've told you before, Lionel isn't the best choice for you. His background is too complicated, he's really not right for you. Chloe, come with me. I promise I'll marry you immediately, and you won't suffer one bit."A passionate man, a passionate gaze, and passionate words, but Chloe's heart remained unmoved.After her heart was broken by the past, giving it to Lionel had bec

    AstralisThe Williams estate remained brightly lit through the night.As the last guests departed, the household staff moved efficiently, tidying up the courtyard and clearing away the remnants of the celebration.Earl, filled with joy and having indulged in a few too many drinks, had retired early for the evening.Only his immediate family remained in the grand hall—his sons, daughters, and grandchildren all gathered together."Lion, congratulations on rekindling things with Joanna," Lewis, Lionel's cousin, remarked with a grin.Lionel shot him a frosty glare. "Thank you," he replied curtly, rising from his seat. He turned to address the elders. "I'm feeling a bit tired. If you'll excuse me, I'll head to my room now.""Go get some rest. It's been a long day for you!"His aunt Hannah forced a smile and waved dismissively, hiding her envy behind a facade of politeness. Beneath her outward cheer, her heart burned with jealousy. Earl was clearly playing favorites again. Even though Joann

    Just as she sat up in bed, she heard footsteps outside the door. Her heart leaped with excitement. She jumped out of bed, rushed to the door, and flung it open, calling out, "Lion—" But the person standing before her was Grace."Madam, it's me. The Master won't be coming home tonight." Grace stepped inside, carefully balancing a tray of food, a bright smile plastered on her face as if something delightful had happened. "Before he left, he made it clear that I must take good care of you. I wouldn't dare neglect his orders. I saw you were asleep during dinner and didn't want to disturb you, but I figured you'd be awake by now, so I brought your meal upstairs.""Thank you," Chloe murmured, disappointment flashing across her face as she followed Grace back inside.She sat down to eat, but every bite felt like a lump in her throat. The food refused to go down smoothly. She glanced at her flat belly, clenched her teeth, and forced herself to eat a bit more before giving up entirely.When Gr

    Joanna's face flushed with a hint of redness. She glanced at Lionel, who was not far away, her eyes flashing with a mischievous, almost mocking glint. She said, "Lion has always been great, and... I'm willing to marry him!""Good! Good!" The guests erupted in applause and cheers.The atmosphere in the room reached its peak, with everyone smiling and congratulating Earl and Samuel.Earl and Samuel, unable to hide their joy, raised their glasses to toast to their friends and relatives, their eyes moist with emotion.Both families were prominent in the business world, and this union was a powerful alliance. Everyone could foresee that the future of the business world would belong to them.

    "You, I...fine, it's my fault. I was wrong. Now that things have come to this point, we must take responsibility for what needs to be handled. An important guest is arriving today. Get yourselves ready and come out quickly. They might already be on their way."Knowing that if he softened his tone, the young man would only grow more defiant, Earl—proud as he had been all his life—was ultimately forced to bow his head before his grandson."Ha…" Lionel let out a cold laugh. "Responsibility? If anyone has to take responsibility, it's you. Every consequence of this mess stems from your decisions. What does any of it have to do with me?""You—you—what nonsense are you spouting?" Earl bristled, his anger making his mustache quiver. "Oh, I see. This must be because of that woman! But let me tell you, your wife can only be Joanna, no one else! If you take a step back and marry Joanna, everything will be negotiable. Love as many women as you

    Lionel gritted his teeth and shoved Joanna hard, sending her flying across the room. With a dull thud, she landed like a discarded ragdoll.Her brows knitted tightly, and it was clear the impact hurt her badly. Tears streamed down her face as she whimpered through her sobs, "Lion... I need... please..."Grabbing the showerhead, Lionel turned the water to full blast, not caring that it was the dead of winter. The icy stream hit Joanna's trembling body."Cold... it's so cold..." Joanna shivered violently, her arms wrapping around herself as a fleeting clarity returned to her teary eyes.Seeing her quiet down, Lionel moved the water away. But as soon as she started showing signs of agitation again, he realized things couldn't continue like this.If they did, he wasn't sure what might happen.Spotting a towel on a nearby rack, he grabbed it and threw it over Joanna. His voice was sharp as he snapped, "If you want me to believe you were forced in

    Fortunately, Lionel had experience dealing with aphrodisiacs. This time, the drug's potency wasn't as intense as what he'd endured at Paradiso. While his body burned with heat, it lacked the overwhelming urgency and fierceness of before.Was this their way of sparing him? He almost felt grateful for his grandfather's mercy.Lionel sat motionless on the sofa, fists clenched tightly. With sheer willpower, he resisted the waves of heat crashing over him.Joanna, however, was far less composed.Biting her lip, she understood deep down that she'd been drugged. Though she struggled to maintain control, her delicate face had turned as red as a ripe apple. The surging heat within her made her let out a faint whimper. Her pale hands tugged at her wool cardigan, desperately trying to cool herself."Lion…" Joanna called out to Lionel, her pink tongue running over her parched lips. Her eyes, clouded with desire, burned with a fiery intensity.She

    On the other side, the Williams family.Joanna, enduring the pain in her foot, returned to her room. As she passed Lionel's door, she hesitated for a moment before raising her hand to knock. Without waiting for a response from inside, she pushed the door open and entered."Lion…"Lionel stopped typing, crossed his arms, and coldly asked, "Joanna, what do you want this time?""Lion," Joanna took a few steps closer. "I'm sorry for this afternoon. I shouldn't have lashed out at you. You were just angry because of Grandpa. I didn't consider that and ended up taking it out on you.""Apologize?" Lionel raised an eyebrow, his tone sharp as he looked at her with disdain, his eyes cold as he scanned the pitiful Joanna. "No need for apologies! I've got work to do!" He glanced toward the windowsill, seemingly hearing the sound of a message."Lion, can't we just talk calmly, without all this tension?" Joanna said, her face a mix of distress and pain.Lionel regarded her like a stranger—perhaps ev

    Chloe hailed a taxi and rushed home.When she arrived, Donna was in the middle of preparing dinner."Chloe, you're back?!" Donna greeted her with surprise, taking the bag from her hand. She glanced behind Chloe but didn't see Lionel."Uh..." Chloe replied as she changed her shoes and walked inside. Sensing her mother's unspoken question, she quickly explained, "I'm alone. He went to his grandfather's house.""Oh, I see." Donna sounded a bit disappointed. The house felt so empty, with just her here all day. If she didn't go out, she wouldn't even have anyone to talk to.Deep down, Donna wished Lionel and Chloe would come back more often. She always had food ready for them, but the food would go bad, and she'd have to throw it out and buy more, yet they never came. After waiting so long, it felt like a letdown when only Chloe returned. In her mind, she had completely accepted Lionel as her son-in-law.They rarely spoke much.
