“No!” Lucy cut her off abruptly. “The way someone expresses love may change, but their eyes never lie.”She leaned back against the pillow, her face pale but resolute. “Mom, I won’t take the fall for her. You can give up on that idea.”“You… you’re just so unreasonable!” Mrs. Chancer snapped, grabbing her bag and storming out in anger.Lucy watched her mother’s retreating figure with a deep sorrow in her eyes. Her mother didn’t hesitate, not even a glance back. She left with such finality that Lucy felt a chill settle in her chest. She was exhausted, but for the first time, her anger wasn’t directed at Sarah.Closing her eyes, she let the bitterness wash over her. Her mother had changed. Her brother had changed. Everyone had changed.“What? A suicide attempt?” Sarah’s eyes widened in disbelief upon hearing the news about Lucy. It was almost impossible to imagine someone as cautious and calculating as Lucy trying to end her life.Melvin spoke with his usual calm demeanor. “She was

Sarah, clearly uninterested in any small talk, pulled a stack of documents from her bag and pushed them across the table toward Charlotte. Her tone was icy. “Take a look.”“What’s this?” Charlotte’s fingers trembled as she swallowed hard. She cautiously opened the file, pulling out a few photos. They were surveillance stills of her driving Lucy’s car. On top of the stack was a recording device. With growing apprehension, Charlotte pressed play.“It was Charlotte who approached Michael, asking for his help. Not just him—our whole family got dragged into it because he agreed… First, she made Michael locate Mr. Larson’s car and stage the crash. Then she had him arrange for a neurological assessment at the hospital. With that document, the Larsons had no choice but to accept their loss. I thought it would end there, but her target wasn’t the Larsons—it was you…”The raspy, authoritative voice of Mr. Luther described the events in meticulous detail, almost as if reliving that day. Ch

“I won’t,” Sarah said firmly, her tone heavy with authority. “But you should think carefully about the difference between being the mastermind and just an accomplice. This isn’t just about a lighter sentence.”“I’ll talk!” Charlotte finally broke down.“Tell me. I’ll handle the rest myself.”Charlotte closed her eyes, her shoulders trembling. “It was Vivian. It was her!” she confessed.“So, Lucy was the first scapegoat, and you’re the second?” Sarah asked, her suspicions confirmed. Things were clearly far more complicated than they seemed, but with just a few pointed questions, she had her answers.Charlotte nodded slowly. “That’s... how it seems.”---Meanwhile, Steven had been feeling uneasy for days, the reason being Scarlett. Maybe it was because of her sudden boyfriend, or perhaps it was the questions she had asked him—questions he couldn’t answer. He found himself walking into Morning Star Bar, the same bar where he and Scarlett had shared an unusual encounter. Lately, h

Steven stared at Scarlett for a moment, completely dazed. “Scarlett, you’re so beautiful.”“Ugh, how cheesy,” Scarlett muttered, clearly tipsy herself.After another ten minutes or so, Scarlett was just as drunk as Steven. With what little sense he had left, Steven managed to call a cab, gave the driver his home address, and promptly passed out.When the driver finally woke them up, Steven groggily opened his eyes and saw Scarlett still half-asleep. Unsteady on his feet, he helped her out of the car and into his house. The scene felt oddly familiar—just like the last time his friend had brought Scarlett to his place.Once inside, Steven carefully laid Scarlett on the bed. Just as he turned to leave, he tripped and fell to the floor. Before he could get up, Scarlett’s arm draped across his chest. Gently, he moved her arm off him, but the moment he let go, she threw it back over him. This happened several times before Steven gave up, exhaling in defeat.The faint smell of alcohol

"You wouldn’t dare!" His tone was calm but carried an air of authority that couldn't be ignored. Scarlett internally grumbled but obediently withdrew her hand. So bossy! So controlling! She quickly shifted on the couch, trying to put some distance between them. But just as she started to move, Steven grabbed her arm and pulled her back. She stumbled, landing right against his chest. His embrace was warm, and she instinctively looked up to glare at him, only to be caught in his soft, tender gaze. Her cheeks flushed red as she quickly lowered her head. Memories of the previous night flooded her mind—Steven’s relentless teasing that left her begging for mercy. She had only just started to recover, and now she worried… Could he possibly want to—? Her face grew even hotter as her thoughts spiraled. When had she become so… horny? Maybe he was just pulling her closer for a look, nothing more. The more she thought, the more flustered she became. And apparently, Steven noticed her u

After speaking, the doctor left some medication and departed.Steven's expression had turned cold as he looked at Scarlett."Is this how you take care of yourself?" He was irritated that she'd been ignoring her symptoms all day."My cycle is usually irregular. I didn't expect it today, I thought it would be a few days later..." Scarlett said defensively."So you knew it might come around this time and didn't bring any pain medication with you?" Steven felt his frustration rising at her carelessness."I didn't..." Scarlett was pale, brows furrowed with cramps.But he wouldn't let it go, making her increasingly annoyed. "It's not my fault!"That comment just triggered Steven further. "You're not taking care of yourself, and you still think you're right!"Seeing the pain she was trying to hide made his heart ache."I don't need your help!" Scarlett blurted out, then immediately regretted her words. She'd spoken out of irritation.Seeing Steven's darkened expression, she instantl

The day before the land auction, Sarah met with Charlotte.After their last conversation, Charlotte no longer feared facing Sarah. Now that everything was out in the open, the worst case scenario was simply going to prison.Charlotte ordered an iced Americano, but Sarah stopped her. "Since you're pregnant, maybe stick to water.""Thanks." Charlotte was surprised.She could see Sarah's eyes were clear, free of any lingering resentment. "I misjudged you before.""What do you mean?" Sarah asked, taken aback."I always thought your coldness toward James was just an act. I heard so much about you from Lucy and Mother. I believed you cared deeply for James, that you couldn't have moved on so quickly. Whether your distance was real or fake, I thought he still held a place in your heart. I see now I was wrong." Charlotte gave a self-deprecating smile.Sarah didn't respond to this. She hadn't met Charlotte for small talk. Getting straight to the point, she asked, "Are you and James parti

He took a manila envelope from his car and handed it to her. "Here, this is for you.""What is it?" Sarah asked, puzzled as she took it.As she started to open the envelope, Zachary stopped her."Wait until you're home."Seeing his grave expression, Sarah understood the contents must be confidential. She lowered the envelope, and as she was about to walk past him, she paused.Turning back to face Zachary, she said, "Harbor Crescent."Zachary's brow furrowed at those words. "Harbor Crescent?""Yes." Sarah didn't want to say more. She'd given him the hint - the rest was up to him to figure out.Back home, Sarah locked herself in her room and carefully removed the documents from the envelope.Her pupils dilated, her hands trembling.This was...?At the land auction, Sarah arrived with Melvin, both dressed elegantly. She wasn't sure if other attendees knew that Harbor Crescent, not Crystal Bay, was the real prize, but the Sanders family had to secure it.Besides Crystal Bay and

Sarah called out weakly, "Zachary!"The Cayenne's windows were shattered, its door deeply dented.The airbags had deployed, pinning Zachary inside."Zachary! Wake up!"After countless calls, Zachary finally opened his eyes and tried to move.Moving in the airbag-filled cabin wasn't easy, and he felt intense pain in his thigh.His voice was hoarse, ”Sasa, I'm okay. Are you?"In that moment, Sarah forgot everything else, her eyes welling up as she looked at him. "I'm fine. How can you get out?""Did you call for help?" Zachary asked.Sarah took out her phone but found no signal. She couldn't make an emergency call."No signal." Her phone had been intermittent on the bridge too.Of the cars chasing her, one had gone over the cliff and the other was flipped. Both must have had signal jammers installed.Sarah looked at Zachary - his upper body was compressed by the airbags, his lower half completely trapped underneath."Get out quickly," Sarah's voice trembled.Zachary forced

Sarah drove forward desperately with the two black cars in close pursuit.Her phone kept ringing, but she didn't dare move to answer it in her current situation. The tires made horrifying sounds as they scraped against the road.Dust kicked up behind them as the pursuing cars seemed bent on a suicide mission, repeatedly trying to ram her. She knew it must be Zachary calling, surely panicked after hearing her earlier words.But with the relentless pursuit behind her, she couldn't let her guard down for even a moment.She had underestimated their determination. At one turn, her mind started to blur and consciousness began to fade. She bit down hard, forcing herself to stay alert.The mountain road was narrow and steep - one slip meant certain death from the fall. With no streetlights in the darkness, it was even more treacherous. The cars behind kept flashing their high beams, making her eyes hurt.In that split second of distraction, one of the cars rammed her hard. The violent im

Lucy sighed. She couldn't believe her mother would say this. Mrs. Chancer saw her determination, but Charlotte was carrying the Chancer family's heir - if she was sentenced, that child would be born with a stigma.Suddenly, Mrs. Chancer knelt before Lucy.I’ll do it!" Lucy said through gritted teeth.She thought she could give up everything for personal gain, but seeing her mother kneel down, she couldn't control herself.After the winter light festival, Sarah felt a strange ache in her heart that she'd never experienced before.She didn't know how to handle her relationship with Zachary. The coldness she'd maintained before seemed to have transformed after the festival into something caught between distance and warmth.She was driving across the city bridge connecting East Coast to Pine Mist Island. The bridge had been neglected for years since the island was abandoned.The bridge took about 10 minutes to cross. She hadn't even left Pine Mist Island when she noticed something

Mrs. Chancer pointed at Sarah's face angrily. "You b*tch! You're doing this on purpose. You know Charlotte is also a victim - it was all Vivian's doing! Why not prosecute her? Are you just picking on the weak?"Sarah scoffed, "Don't you know Vivian was the one who released the evidence against Charlotte? She's really the mastermind, isn't she? You're here confronting me but not her - who's really picking on the weak?""You-!" Mrs. Chancer’s face turned pale with anger. Sarah maintained her composure, looking at her coldly. "Please leave. You're not welcome here."As Mrs. Chancer left, she threatened, "We'll see about this!"In the psychiatric hospital, Lucy had just finished breakfast. After so many days there, she'd started to adjust. She'd lost all hope after her mother's repeated attempts to make her take the blame.She'd even begun to fear visitors, not wanting to hear more cold words from people she once trusted.Yet an hour later, she saw her mother again.She was sitting

Sarah accepted the completed assessment, taking out a red pen to mark it carefully.Soon, she placed another test in front of Zachary, speaking softly, "Answer one question of mine for each math problem you solve."She picked up a timer.Though confused, Zachary nodded hesitantly.Sarah watched him bend over the paper seriously. The test contained standard calculus problems - not particularly difficult, but requiring careful attention to avoid mistakes."Did you have a girlfriend three years ago?" she asked.Zachary's pen trembled - he hadn't expected such a... direct question.After a moment's thought, he replied, "Yes."Sarah watched him complete the first problem, pressed the timer, and recorded the time.As Zachary started the second problem, Sarah spoke again. "Tell me, was your girlfriend Vivian?""No!" he answered firmly."Then did you know me?" she asked next.Zachary wrote the next line and said, "I'm done."He slowly put down his pen, unwilling to continue after

Sarah's expression softened as she looked at James seriously. "Although I did collect evidence of her crimes, she was arrested before I could take it to the police."In other words, Charlotte's arrest had nothing to do with her.James's eyes widened in disbelief.He couldn't believe Sarah wasn't behind the arrest. Then who could it be?"But besides you, who else would have reason to report her? Others wouldn't get involved," James said, frowning.Sarah gave a bitter laugh. "James, don't forget Charlotte has other enemies. Like Vivian, who wants to make her a scapegoat."James finally understood. Of course - Vivian! He remembered what Charlotte had said. Vivian was afraid Sarah would eventually discover her crimes, so she planned to make Charlotte take the blame.James sighed, speaking apologetically to Sarah. "Sarah, what Charlotte did was wrong, and Lucy wronged you too. Now Lucy's in a psychiatric hospital and Charlotte's in jail. For the sake of Charlotte's baby, could you wr

"Charlotte's been arrested, and you're still here trying to convince me to take the blame?" Lucy said angrily.Mrs. Chancer’s face showed embarrassment at being exposed, but she remained firm. "Lucy, given how things have turned out, you need to be more understanding.""If Charlotte wasn't pregnant right now, I would protect you no matter what - you are my biological daughter after all. But the situation is different. She's carrying the Chancer family's only heir, and I must protect that child at all costs. Don't worry, even if you take the blame for her, your brother and I will do everything in our power to get you out."Lucy laughed bitterly. "Mom, you already said all this the last time you visited. Have you forgotten what happened then?"She found it ironic that since her detention and imprisonment, her mother had only visited twice - first to convince her to take the blame, which led to her suicide attempt, and now again with the same request.It had only been days since her

She looked up at Zachary, who sat in front holding her hand. After all this time, they were holding hands again. She couldn't tell if the feeling in her heart was more bitter or sweet. Usually, Sarah would have pulled away without hesitation, but this time, for reasons she couldn't explain, she remained silent.For the first time, she wanted to follow her heart's true desires, just this once. She couldn't deny her feelings for Zachary - how she had hoped he would come find her, hold her hand just like this.His tall figure kept shifting left and right, shielding her from passing pedestrians. He was protecting her.Finally, they reached the riverside, where most couples had gathered to set their lights afloat on the water.Sarah found herself gently pushed to the riverside by the crowd, with Zachary staying close to protect her.She noticed the couples around them writing both their names and wishes on their floating lights, while hers only had her name."Wait a moment!" she sudde

Charlotte's eyes welled up at her mother's words. "Mom, don't say that. James won't abandon me. He'll definitely save me."Even if James wouldn't save her, Mrs. Chancer surely wouldn't abandon her. She touched her stomach - if nothing else, they'd do it for the baby.The evening's peace was shattered when, just as Mrs. Chancer brought soup and Charlotte had barely taken two sips, the police came to take her away."What are you doing!" Mrs. Chancer screamed, grabbing Charlotte's arm.Charlotte hadn't expected this turn of events as she was led to the police car. At the hospital entrance, Mrs. Chancer angrily called James, then William.At Adams University, Sarah had just packed up to leave work when she encountered Zachary at the door. She was about to avoid him when she heard Scarlett's voice."Sasa! Don't go! Come with us to the winter light festival!"Winter Light festival?Sarah suddenly remembered the afternoon's heated discussions on the school forum about the winter light
