Harry's eyes flashed with malice. After hearing Harry’s suggestion, Justin glanced at him briefly before shifting his gaze to Mr. Ziegler, who looked smug. “So, this is the plan after the loan was denied?” Justin thought. As the Vice President of RC Corporation, Harry had been trying to siphon off company funds through a shell company. It seemed his uncle was getting sloppy with age.Over the years, Harry's projects had become less and less profitable, while he been lending more and more money to his questionable friends. Justin had turned a blind eye, largely out of respect for his grandfather. If it weren't for that, Harry would have been removed from his position a long time ago, replaced by someone more competent.“Mr. Ziegler certainly has experience, but he’s been overseeing the traditional sectors. A project focused on developing new energy technologies is better suited to someone younger,” Justin replied calmly, his authority undeniable.Despite being publicly oppose

“The antacid is gone. Bring me a new box,” Justin said, his voice weaker than usual. He had always assumed the company kept it in stock and hadn’t given it much thought.Sam stood there awkwardly, clearly hesitant to speak.Justin frowned impatiently. “What are you waiting for? Go get it.”After a moment of deliberation, Sam finally spoke up, “Miss Emily was the one who always arranged the antacid for you.”Every time Justin was close to running out, she made sure to have more ready ahead of time. Now that he and she were no longer together, naturally, she wouldn’t be sending any more. But Sam was tactful enough not to say that part aloud.Justin froze. He hadn’t realized Emily had been quietly taking care of that for him.“I’ll go get some medicine right away,” Sam quickly offered, noticing the shift in Justin's expression.Left alone in the office, Justin’s gastric pain grew worse as frustration began to creep in. He had resolved to erase Emily from his life, to act as if she

The next morning, Emily got ready and headed out for her art class. She hailed a taxi on the street, something she hadn’t done in a while. Back when she was with Justin, she always drove one of the cars he had gifted her, but after she left, she hadn’t taken any of them. The cars and the jewelry he had given her, were all left behind at Villa One.As the taxi drove through the city, it passed the luxurious villa community where she used to live. Emily noticed a sleek black luxury car pulling out from the gates of Villa One. It was hard to miss, with its unique all-8 license plate, a rare sight in Lincourt City. She glanced at it briefly but quickly turned her attention to the scenery outside the opposite window, not wanting to linger on the past.The taxi driver, however, couldn’t help but comment. “Did you see that limited-edition luxury car that just passed by? With a license plate like that, people living in this area are definitely loaded.“These villas are worth millions!”

“Remember, ladies, always steer clear of stingy men or you’ll end up with nothing!” one of the influencers said as their gossip faded. They were trailing behind Emily at a discreet distance as they all entered the building.Emily, preoccupied with thoughts of her withdrawal from school, paid no attention to the quiet chatter behind her. The voices were soft enough that she didn’t catch any of it.In class, after one lesson had ended, the teacher called out just as the students were about to leave, “Hold on a second, everyone.”The class paused, turning back to listen.“Next week, the school will be hosting a commercial art exhibition. We’ve invited several wealthy and influential guests, and even the government has taken an interest. This is an incredible opportunity to showcase your best work and potentially launch your career. Don’t let this slip by and make sure you give it your all!” The teacher smiled brightly, clearly excited about the event.The class responded with enthusi

Hearing the noise from the next room, one of the students, who had been gossiping about Emily earlier that morning, rushed over. “Emily, are you okay?” she asked, her voice filled with concern. “Where does it hurt? I’ll call the teacher. Don’t worry!” She quickly pulled out her phone.Emily’s right side was throbbing with pain, tears streaming down her face as she lay there, feeling numb and barely able to move.The teacher arrived shortly after, clearly alarmed. “Call an ambulance, quickly!” she instructed, her voice sharp with urgency.Emily wanted to assure everyone she was fine, but as soon as she tried to speak, the pain surged again, and more tears flowed uncontrollably.When the ambulance arrived, the teacher turned to the students. “You all stay here and keep selecting your pieces for the exhibition. I’ll go with her to the hospital,” she said, her tone firm yet reassuring.At Lichfield Hospital’s emergency room, the doctor reviewed the X-rays. “There’s no fracture, just

Just then, Justin pushed the door open and entered the hospital room.Emily frowned, giving him a puzzled look, and asked coldly, “What are you doing here?”Justin glanced at her, as if looking at an idiot. “The school called, saying you got hurt.” With that, he tossed the bag in his hand onto the hospital bed.It was only then that Emily remembered. Since she had lost her memory and had no family, she had listed Justin as her emergency contact when she enrolled.She walked to the bed, picked up the bag of medicine, and muttered an awkward, “Thanks.”Justin was a bit surprised. She actually said thank you? Didn’t she act all fierce just a few days ago?“Where’s Sean?” he asked casually, like he was just gossiping with an acquaintance. “Why didn’t he come to the hospital?”“That’s none of your business,” Emily replied, clearly annoyed, as she checked her face in the small mirror by the hospital bed.At least her face was unharmed.Justin let out a mocking laugh. “So, did he pla

Emily looked back at her with calm confidence, smiling slightly. “Thank you both for going out of your way to visit me.”Emma opened her mouth to say something else, but Justin interrupted, turning to Emma. “Didn’t you say you were going to get the medicine from Zac? Did you get it?”“I did!” Emma answered, her gaze filled with happiness as she looked at him.“Then let’s head out. There’s still work to do at the office.” Justin took the bag from her hand and, with a smooth motion, intertwined his fingers with hers as they walked out of the hospital room together.Emily’s eyes flickered briefly as she watched their fingers locked together, a shadow passing over her face for just a moment.“Bye-bye, Emily!” Emma turned back, giving a cute wave before matching her steps to Justin’s.The door closed behind them.Emily tossed her clothes onto the bed and sat down, feeling suddenly drained of all her strength. They looked perfect together, happy, like they had never been apart. These

After Emily got home, the bruised areas from her fall started to ache, and there was a dull pain in her chest as well.She went to her room, took off her clothes to apply medicine. The bruise was on her right side, so she clumsily applied the ointment with her left hand. Once she was done, she felt hungry but didn’t feel like cooking, so she ordered takeout.Halfway through her meal, her teacher messaged her, first checking on her well-being and then offering to cover her medical expenses. Emily politely declined, as she had already withdrawn from school. After all, it was her own misstep that led to the fall, not the school’s fault. It was her teacher and classmates who had called the ambulance and gotten her to the hospital.She sent a message thanking them and resumed watching her show while eating her takeout. After finishing her meal, she continued binge-watching. Now that she didn’t have to attend school or work at the school’s art exhibit, she could focus on recovering.Mean

“Helen, did you hear what your husband just said?” Helen shot a glare at Zac. How dare he throw her under the bus? Zac leaned in close, lowering his voice to whisper in her ear, “All the negative online posts have been taken down, and related keywords are blocked. It’s fine now.” “Why didn’t you tell me sooner?” Helen frowned. She had just been worrying for nothing. “I’ve been too busy and forgot to mention it.” “Ahem!” Haley suddenly coughed loudly, interrupting their hushed conversation. “Whatever you two lovebirds are whispering about, save it for when you’re home. It’s broad daylight—have some shame.” “Hehe…” Helen chuckled awkwardly before slipping over to her sister and linking arms with her. “Sis, Zac and I just got our marriage license not too long ago. The wedding hasn’t even been planned yet, so we were thinking… we’d love for you to design our wedding rings.” She had meant to bring it up before, but between the art exhibition and the car accident, she ha

Elena took in the scene before her, her hands unconsciously clenching inside the pockets of her white coat. “Zac is with this woman? Why?” she wondered. Didn’t he have a severe obsession with cleanliness? How could he be sharing utensils with her? Elena had just returned from a medical conference out of town when she heard rumors that Zac had a girlfriend. At first, she didn’t believe it. But now she had seen it with her own eyes. Their families had been close for generations. For as long as she could remember, she had known Zac. As a child, she used to run after him, calling him ‘big brother.’By the time she reached her teenage years, her feelings for him had deepened. In her mind, she and Zac were childhood sweethearts. She had followed in his footsteps every step of the way—both in academics and career. Wherever he studied, she worked hard to get into the same school. When he went abroad for university, she followed. But sadly, while she longed for love, h

Zac quickly apologized, coaxing her, “It’s my fault. I’ll find a chance to get rid of him one of these days.” “That’s more like it.” Helen, satisfied with his response, dropped the issue and reminded him again, “And don’t you dare tell Justin about Alex!” “You can trust me. My lips are sealed.” This wasn’t something he should be the one to reveal. If anyone was going to tell Justin, it had to be Haley herself or Justin would have to figure it out on his own. Zac had no intention of meddling in their affairs. At most, he would offer a little assist from the sidelines. When they arrived at the hospital’s underground parking lot, the two grabbed their things and headed upstairs. Inside the director’s office, Zac and Helen sat on the couch, eating breakfast. “Mmm, this bun is really good. How many did you buy?” Helen asked, enjoying the taste. Then, suddenly remembering her sister, she quickly retied the plastic bag. Haley probably hadn’t eaten yet. She should take

Early the next morning, two figures—one large, one small—lay sprawled across a soft, pink bed, fast asleep.The annoying ring of an alarm echoed through the room, relentlessly urging Helen to wake up. Still half-asleep, she lay slumped across the bed, eyes shut, blindly reaching around for her phone. “Hello?” Her voice was groggy and thick with sleep. “Babe, time to wake up. I’m about to head out to pick you up.” Zac, wide awake and full of energy, stepped out of his house and headed toward his car. “Okay, I’m getting up now.” “Wake up properly. I’ll be at your place in twenty minutes. You probably won’t have time to eat at home, so I’ll bring breakfast.” “Got it.” As soon as the call ended, Helen flipped over and buried her face in the pillow, stealing a few more minutes of rest. Meanwhile, Alex—whom she had carried into her room last night—woke up before her. Sitting up on the bed, he rubbed his sleepy eyes with his hands. Seeing his aunt still asleep, he

“The first article and everything that followed were all paid for by Emma. She hired the media to write them. As for the comments smearing my sister, aside from a few people jumping on the bandwagon, ninety percent of them were bots. The accounts funding those bots also had direct financial transactions with the people writing the hit pieces.” “Emma!” Helen gritted her teeth in fury, clenching her fists. “I knew it was her from the start! I called it!” “I wasn’t the one who uncovered this. It was Chase—he was the first to notice the unusual activity online.” Richard shifted his gaze to Chase, who was sitting quietly to the side. “Well done,” Wilfred praised. Chase pursed his lips, his cheeks flushing slightly as he lowered his head. Compliments still made him a little shy. “Look into Emma Xander. Dig into her connections and go through every detail of her bank records.” Wilfred’s expression darkened. He never dismissed conflicts between women as trivial. When jealousy

That evening, Zac drove Helen home after dinner. The car pulled up on Mistletoe Street, and Helen unbuckled her seatbelt, ready to get out. “Bye-bye. Don’t forget to pick me up tomorrow morning.” “Got it.” She stepped out of the car and headed inside. The moment she pushed open the door, she stopped in her tracks. Seated on the living room couch were four men—Wilfred, Richard, Chase, and Alex—all sitting upright with tense expressions. The atmosphere was heavy, especially with the pressure radiating from Wilfred. Helen walked over. “Wilfred, you’re home early today.” Wilfred explained calmly, “Work wasn’t too busy today.” Richard, however, scoffed. “Oh, please. You’re practically living at the hospital these days. Do you even care if our brother gets off work early or not? I bet you’re ready to make the hospital your new home.” Helen swung her purse at him. “What do you mean ‘my home’? I’m staying there to take care of my sister, keeping her company at the

“Alright, since you can handle it yourself, I won’t interfere. I still have patient rounds to do. I’ll take Helen with me and get back to work.” With one hand pushing the medication cart, Zac took Helen’s hand with the other, leading her out of the room. Helen yanked her hand free. “If you’re busy, go be busy. Why are you dragging me along? I need to stay with my sister!” Her voice trailed off as she was pulled out the door. “Zac, are you trying to create opportunities for those two?” Helen suddenly realized in the hallway. Seeing that she had caught on, Zac shook his head in denial. “Of course not. Your sister still hasn’t fully recovered, and you never stop talking all day. It affects her rest. One person keeping her company is enough.” “But that person shouldn’t be Justin! If I can’t take care of her, we can hire a nurse.” “That’s just a waste of money. Didn’t Justin wrong your sister? Let him play nurse and make up for it. He can’t just get off scot-free, can h

That night in the underground parking garage, as soon as Heidi overheard the call, Emma grabbed her and pulled her into the car.Heidi screamed and struggled, but afraid of attracting attention, Emma had no choice but to silence her with a wrench. She went down so easily. Emma hadn’t even hit her that hard, yet she collapsed right away.She even had to haul “her” into the trunk and wipe the blood clean. How infuriating. Even in “death,” Heidi was still such a hassle! On the way to dispose of the body, Emma came up with the perfect plan. She drove back home and carefully wiped the burner phone clean with alcohol. Then, putting on disposable gloves, she stripped Heidi’s clothes off and put them on herself. Fixing her hair, she returned to the hospital parking lot and drove off in Heidi’s car. Halfway to her destination, she stopped in an area without surveillance and “picked up” Heidi. Then, she drove all the way to an isolated riverside in the outskirts. She changed

“If you need any help, I can assist you.” Justin read the message Emma had sent him and responded with just two cold words: “No need.” He hadn’t included Emma in this project team—partly because of her lack of ability and partly because he wanted to avoid unnecessary interactions with her. Setting his phone down, he intended to refocus on his work. But after reading only a few lines, he picked up his phone again and called a secretary from his office. This time, instead of stepping out onto the balcony, he walked out of his room and headed toward the end of the hallway, turning the corner. “Has Emma’s transfer paperwork been completed?” “Yes, Mr. Yates, Miss Xander’s transfer is all set. But…” The secretary hesitated, aware of the rumors circulating in the company about Justin and Emma. He didn’t dare to continue. “But what?” Justin’s patience wore thin, his tone sharp. The male secretary gulped, struggling to find the right words. “Miss Xander… doesn’t seem wil
