Justin opened the male colleague’s social media app.“What’s the password?” he demanded.“Mr. Yates, I... I didn’t upload anything. I swear!” the male colleague finally realized how much trouble he was in, trembling with fear. “Do I need to repeat myself?” With a shaky voice, the male colleague gave Justin the password. Justin logged into the account and didn’t find Emily’s photos but did come across pictures of other women. It seemed they hadn’t been uploaded yet. He had no interest in the other photos and handed the phone to Sam. “Get someone from the IT department to wipe all the photos,” Justin said coldly. The male colleague hunched over, pale-faced, his eyes dull, looking like his world had just collapsed. “If you can’t manage this branch properly, I won’t hesitate to replace you!” Justin said, his voice sharp as he addressed the branch manager. The manager bent slightly and hurried to explain, “Rest assured, Mr. Yates, I will handle the branch well. This

Emily sat in the car and thought it through. Since she couldn’t escape for now, she might as well take care of herself, starting with a full stomach. There was no point in getting angry. Being mad wouldn’t solve anything. Finding a way to leave was the real priority.Her mood shifted quickly. When they arrived at the mall, Emily headed straight to the food court. It wasn’t a busy time, so the restaurant was quiet. Justin wasn’t hungry, but Emily devoured her meal with such intensity that someone might think he hadn’t been feeding her. After finishing her meal, Emily started shopping, swapping out her heels for a comfortable pair of flats. It was Justin’s first time accompanying a woman on a shopping trip. Not knowing what else to do, he followed behind, swiping his card to pay for everything and carrying her bags. Seeing that he could both pay and carry, Emily made sure to rack up his expenses, even picking up gifts for Helen and Mrs. Zimmer. She considered buying

Emily felt a sharp discomfort and raised her hand to slap the "bug" bothering her. “Smack!” Her hand landed hard, and the bug vanished. She wanted to go back to sleep.Unbeknownst to her, Justin had been kissing her neck. He hadn’t slept well the entire night. Even though Emily hadn’t touched him, her presence beside him, with her steady breathing, had been a constant temptation.By morning, his restraint had completely unraveled, and he couldn’t help himself any longer, deciding it was time for some early-morning "exercise."But before he could go further, Emily’s hand smacked his face.Already frustrated, his anger flared further. “Emily!” Justin growled, his voice deep and furious.Startled awake by his shout, Emily groggily snapped back, her morning irritability flaring. “What’s your problem?”She realized she was in the bed and immediately figured Justin must have carried her there. Annoyed, she sat up, intending to leave, but Justin grabbed her and pulled her back down.

The pent-up frustration Justin had been carrying dissipated in an instant. Emily, caught off guard and momentarily stunned, couldn’t react in time, allowing him to have his way. When her legs finally steadied and her mind cleared, she pushed herself upright and struggled to break free from his embrace. She thought Justin must be insane. They weren’t lovers anymore. There was no emotional connection to justify such a kiss. Their relationship was one that couldn’t see the light of day. It was a secret affair. She was nothing more than a mistress, and a forced one at that. The thought of him kissing Emma the same way, and then slipping his tongue into her mouth, made a wave of nausea wash over her. Overcome with disgust, she rushed to the bathroom and dry heaved over the sink. Seeing her reaction to his kiss, as though it disgusted her to the point of throwing up, Justin’s expression darkened immediately. He followed her into the bathroom. “Emily,” he said coldly,

“The tourism development project in collaboration with Jacksonburg City’s government is underway, focusing on establishing a five-star scenic area. Additionally, equity financing with major tourism enterprises from both the city and the province is in progress,” the branch manager concluded. “Small- and medium-sized enterprise loans may be an established project, but evaluations and lending processes must continue to be handled with precision,” Justin said, his tone sharp and authoritative as he issued clear instructions. “Who’s managing Skyline Tech Corporation?” he asked. “That would be me, Mr. Yates,” one of the senior executives replied. “Make Skyline Tech Corporation a priority. The future of the tech market is massive. If necessary, increase investments through equity acquisitions. If direct purchases aren’t feasible, don’t force it, but ensure we control at least 50% of the equity,” Justin said, his voice cool and commanding. The senior executive quickly took note

While scrolling through her phone, Emily realized Sean’s contact was gone. Justin! She didn’t need to think twice. It had to have happened while she was asleep, with Justin unlocking her phone and tampering with it. Frustrated, she disabled the fingerprint lock and switched to a password-only entry. She added Sean’s contact back and sent him a message explaining the situation. She wasn’t sure if he had noticed being blocked and deleted, but she hoped to smooth things over. As these thoughts swirled in her mind, she walked back to the branch manager’s office and resumed idly scrolling on her phone while waiting. Today, without high heels, her feet felt much more comfortable. While she was lounging in boredom, a middle-aged woman barged into the office.The woman’s sharp gaze fell on Emily, scanning her from head to toe. Emily wore a fitted black dress with a high slit that revealed her thighs. Her fair complexion was complemented by a touch of makeup, and her bold

The middle-aged woman avoided everyone’s gaze, lowering her head sheepishly, her earlier arrogance completely gone. Justin stood there with a cold expression, his commanding presence filling the room. He glanced at Emily. “She’s been bullied again?” he thought.Emily, still upset, glared back at him with irritation, as if blaming him for the situation. Justin frowned. “What’s her problem? I wasn’t the one who bullied her,” he muttered to himself.The branch manager, recalling what happened to his brother-in-law yesterday, was terrified this incident might affect his own position. Panicked, he pulled his wife forward and apologized profusely to Emily. “Get over here and apologize properly!” the branch manager barked at his wife, grabbing and dragging her without a hint of gentleness. The middle-aged woman, now fully aware of her mistake and realizing she had insulted the wrong person and caused trouble for her husband, didn’t dare resist. She stumbled awkwardly as her h

Justin cut the steak on his plate into neat pieces and handed it to Emily, then swapped her plate with his. He brought her plate of steak, where she had been cutting one bite at a time, over to himself. After finishing their meal, they returned to the hotel to pack and head to the airport. They had arrived with just one suitcase, but by the time they left, they had three. Justin handed his own suitcase to William and reached for Emily’s two. “Let’s go,” he said. At the airport, Emily noticed a stall selling fried chicken and fruit bowls. Thinking about the hours-long flight back to Lincourt City, she decided to buy some to bring on the plane. After paying, Justin grabbed the bag of fried chicken. “Emily, you ate plenty of steak earlier, and now this? You’re eating like a pregnant woman.” Emily froze for a second, then casually walked ahead of him, rolling her eyes. “You’re the one who’s pregnant!” she retorted. “If you think I’m eating too much and can’t afford it,

At the very center of the photo stood Emma, a year younger than the rest. Beside her, shoulder to shoulder, was the real Justin Yates in his college years.His expression darkened for a split second before he caught himself and quickly masked it. He covered it well—furrowing his brows, pretending to study the photo with a blank look, like he wanted to remember something but couldn’t quite grasp it.“This picture… I don’t remember it,” he said, feigning confusion. “But wait—why are you in it, too?” He pointed at the image, his tone naive and questioning.Haley lowered her gaze and answered calmly, “It’s your college graduation photo. From Haven State. The girl standing next to you is Emma.“She’s the one who saved your life. You spent years searching for her… the ‘one true love’ you couldn’t forget.”She didn’t even know what she felt as she said it. Maybe she just wanted to help him recover what he had lost. Maybe that was all.But Justin shook his head, flustered. “No, that’s

After they finished walking around the school, Justin suggested seeing a movie.According to Alex’s strategy notebook, watching a movie together was a great way to build intimacy—especially in a dark theater, sitting close together. The earlier plan at the school had worked pretty well, so Justin was eager to keep following his son’s guide. Later that evening, he also planned to take her to a bustling night market—more shared experiences, more bonding.“There’s a new movie out. Want to go see it with me?” he asked hopefully.“No need,” Haley replied flatly. “Didn’t you say you wanted to recover your memory? Since we’ve already seen your high school, let’s stop by the Yates family estate. Maybe being there will help jog your memory too.”She wasn’t interested in the movie date. If they were going to revisit the past, she wanted to get it over with in one go so there would be no excuses to keep dragging her around next time. Yes, she was grateful that he had saved her life on t

“That was my seat.” Justin led her to a desk near the middle of the classroom, pointing it out. “This is where I used to sit. My deskmate back then was Zac.”He blinked in confusion. “Why do the textbooks look different?”Haley flipped open one of the books left behind by a current student. A name she didn’t recognize was written inside the cover. Probably a student from the current class. No wonder the textbooks were different. Justin’s memory was still stuck in his senior year, but those students would have graduated by now. These must be juniors who had just moved up.Still, something didn’t add up. When she found him injured years ago, he had been wearing a foreign school uniform. Judging by the look of it, he must have been studying abroad. So how was he suddenly enrolled in a high school in Haven State?The question lingered in her mind, so she asked. Of course, she didn’t mention the fact that she had found him half-dead in a trash bin.“I already graduated overseas,” Jus

In the Vice President’s office, Harry sat behind his desk, scowling, his face etched with frustration.The door clicked open, and Jacob stepped in, locking it behind him.“Son, finally!” Harry slammed his palm on the desk. “That little bastard actually woke up! A vegetable! How the hell does someone just wake up from that?!”By now, word of Justin’s recovery and his meeting that morning with Chairman Quinn had spread through the upper ranks of RC Corporation. To be more accurate, the rumors had already started circulating yesterday, the moment he showed up on the executive floor.“Calm down, Dad,” Jacob said, pulling out a chair and taking a seat. His voice was low, his expression unreadable. “Yes, he woke up, but I heard from people in the exec suite that he might have amnesia. They say Sam prepped everything for his meeting with Quinn. Justin was just parroting a script.”“You serious?” Harry’s eyes lit up, the frustration melting into something sharper.“My source isn’t 100%

“Sis, I’m pretty handsome, right?” Justin asked, grinning proudly.And just like that, his voice shattered the illusion Haley had briefly fallen into.She gave him a look. “Don’t flatter yourself. Let’s go.”The two headed downstairs, where William was already waiting to drive them to RC Corporation. He pulled into the underground parking garage, and they made their way up to the executive floor.Inside the president’s office, Haley still wasn’t fully at ease. She had him run through the negotiation script one more time, rehearsing the key points like a stage play. Only when Justin delivered his lines with calm precision did she finally relax.“This shipment is critical for the international project’s timeline,” she reminded him. “You read through the materials yesterday—you get how important this is, right?”Justin nodded.“Don’t stress too much. Just channel that cool, commanding energy you had a minute ago,” Haley said, coaching him seriously. “Get in there and bluff your way

Following Haley into the kitchen, Justin was about to speak when he caught the sound of her voice—she was chatting with Helen.Haley had just poured herself a glass of water from the fridge. Helen, as always, was talking non-stop at her side.“Sis, with Justin calling you ‘sis’ every day, doesn’t it kinda feel like you’ve got yourself a younger, puppy-eyed boyfriend?” Her tone was teasing, full of mischief. “Kinda like that matchmaking event I set up for you back then.”She nudged Haley’s shoulder, waggling her eyebrows suggestively.That one line pulled both of them back to that night at the bar.Haley shot her a look. “You’re pregnant. Can you not let your imagination run wild for once? If you’re that curious, have Zac call you ‘sis’ every night.”“Oh, come on. What’s the harm in a little gossip?” Helen giggled. “Honestly though, this amnesia version of Justin is kind of adorable. All innocent and wide-eyed. You’re telling me you don’t feel anything?”“No,” Haley answered flat

Haley pressed her fingers to her temple, her headache building. “Prepare a full briefing. I want all the contract details, background on the partner company, and a response script. He needs to memorize everything by tomorrow. He’s going to that meeting.”She gestured toward Justin, clearly making him responsible.“Yes, ma’am,” Sam replied.“And one more thing,” Haley added, her tone sharp. “Find a new supplier. Once this delivery is done, terminate the contract. We’re not working with unreliable partners.”“Understood.”As Sam left, Haley turned to Justin, looking down at him from where she stood. “Memorize the talking points. Lock the key contract terms in your head. Tomorrow, you’re facing their CEO. Think you can handle it?”Justin blinked up at her with wide, innocent eyes. “Don’t worry, Sis. If it’s something you asked me to do, I’ll make sure I get it right!”*That evening at Mistletoe Villa, Helen had just returned from a prenatal checkup. Everyone was gathered in the l

“You want your memory back, right? Great. Go ahead and read through these files and sign off on them. That’ll jog your memory in no time.”Haley pushed the day’s workload onto Justin’s desk. Memory loss or not, she was sure his business instincts and decision-making skills were still in there somewhere.It was just like when she had lost her memory. Her painting skills and foreign languages had still been there, buried in her subconscious.Justin didn’t need to recall every detail of the past. As long as he could function in the office and resume his role as president, that was good enough.He froze. Sure, he wanted to grow closer to Haley and get her to care about him again, but going back to work so soon? That hadn’t exactly been the plan.Still, realizing what she wanted, he didn’t argue. Instead, he obediently picked up the first document and started reading carefully.Then, suddenly, he asked, “Sis, what’s the project timeline for the international expansion? I don’t remembe

Zac jogged off in a hurry, not daring to stick around and witness more of Justin’s embarrassment.Justin, having failed to sneak into Haley’s room, had no choice but to sulk back to the guest room the housekeeper had prepared for him.*The next morning, Haley came downstairs for breakfast. She hadn’t slept well—staying up late to work, only to get riled up by Justin all over again. The dark circles under her eyes were impossible to hide, no matter how much concealer she applied.She stepped into the dining room and spotted Justin already sitting at the table.“Morning, sis!” he chirped.He looked every bit the picture of youthful energy, dressed in a clean athletic tracksuit, his expression bright and full of life. He really did look like a high school senior.Haley took one look at his well-rested, cheerful face and felt an unexplainable surge of irritation rise in her chest.She didn’t say a word. Ignoring him completely, she walked to her seat and sat down. Her gaze swept t
