Alan froze on the spot, staring at the woman before him, whose every smile and frown seemed almost magical, filling his mind with surprise and suspicion.

Marcia had always been reserved. She wasn't particularly beautiful, her features merely passable, yet her eyes always held an aloofness, an icy pride that made her less appealing to men compared to the sweet and sultry Kate.

If Kate hadn't mentioned her family's wealth back then, Alan wouldn't have bothered chasing her with such determination.

But this woman in front of him—she looked the same, yet her entire aura had transformed, radiating captivating brilliance. Was she truly not Marcia?

Noticing Alan's shocked expression, Drew frowned, stepping forward. "With this look, we barely recognized you! No wonder Elijah chose you as the new project lead."

Marcia gave a faint smile, unfazed by the implications in Drew's words, and replied coolly, "What brings you two here?"

Drew nudged Alan's arm, only to find him standing there silently,

    As Drew's angry shouts faded down the hallway, Alan observed Marcia's faint, mocking smile and quickly spoke up, "I hope you'll give me a chance to prove my sincerity, ma'am. After all, Solar and Clearvista both got burned by that last contract falling through. In a way, we're both victims here!"Marcia smiled faintly. "Yet, you seemed quite hostile towards us in the past. Now, all of a sudden, you want to cooperate. It's hard to believe."Alan lowered his head respectfully. "To be honest, ma'am, many of your current projects are ones I initially negotiated. If we work together, I'd be willing to provide you with technicians and patented resources at no additional cost."Marcia exchanged a look with Kevin, surprised at the generous offer.Clearvista's recent success had hinged on these exclusive patents, and yet he was willing to offer them up?Feigning surprise, Marcia raised an eyebrow, "Are you accusing us of taking your business?"Alan clenched his fists and spoke passionately, "N

    A while later, Marcia and Kevin reported to Elijah in his office."Sir, Alan has left," Marcia said softly as they both stood before his desk.Elijah nodded. "Alright, Patricia, you may go. I need to speak with Kevin."Marcia hesitated. "Sir, may I change out of this outfit?"Elijah glanced up and firmly replied, "No."Speechless, Marcia turned and left the office.As she exited, Kevin chuckled, "Eli, what kind of weird hobby is this?""I just like seeing her looking beautiful," Elijah retorted, giving Kevin a sidelong glance. Then he asked, "How did Alan react?""He looked stunned. I have to admit, the man's impressive! He distanced himself from Drew in just a few words. Even when we mentioned his mother, he smiled as if it was nothing! If I didn't know she'd died in police custody, I'd have thought she'd passed away peacefully. It was an accident, but clearly, he harbors a grudge. Yet he never showed it, not even a hint. Eli, I don't get it—why are you making Patricia go along with

    In his office, Elijah watched the cheerful interaction between Marcia and Kevin on the surveillance footage.His brow furrowed slightly, and without realizing it, his gaze lingered on Marcia's red lips.Irritated, he tossed the pen in his hand onto the floor, his mood clearly disturbed. He opened his drawer and noticed the passport lying on top.After a moment of contemplation, Elijah took it out and opened it, only to see the name "Marcia William" on the first page.His face darkened as he stared at the passport, his mind swirling with thoughts he didn't voice.Ding ding ding...The internal phone rang, pulling Elijah from his thoughts.He picked up, and Marcia's soft voice came through. "Sir, the head office is calling. They said it's urgent.""Take the call," Elijah said, putting the passport back into the drawer. "Wait a moment.""Yes, sir," Marcia replied.Elijah glanced at his watch. "It's almost 11. I was supposed to have lunch with Myron and the others, but I don't have time n

    As they were talking, Marcia suddenly tasted a metallic, blood-like flavor in her mouth.The taste was so unpleasant that it made her feel sick.Unconsciously, her eyes drifted to the plate closest to her. A large serving of beef slices, marbled with streaks of blood...Marcia nearly gagged.In reality, the beef was top-quality wagyu, the kind that would taste amazing even as sashimi. But Marcia had never been fond of meat, and this was neither easy to swallow nor easy to spit out.With a stiff upper lip, she forced herself to swallow, then took a sip of the wine in front of her. She smiled faintly and said, "It's not bad. Would you like to try some?"She pushed the plate of beef toward the others.Nicole smiled back, "No thanks, I prefer a more... conventional way of eating."Myron shrugged. "I prefer my beef cooked. You sure are something else."Even Kevin couldn't resist giving a thumbs up. "A bold woman! How does Eli handle you?"The others laughed at the remark, and Marcia blushe

    There's a rather unreliable study that claims the color red can ignite a man's desire for women.Elijah's choice of clothing for Marcia—twice now—had been in striking shades of red. It was vivid, eye-catching, and left one wondering if he harbored some unspeakable motives.Marcia, still slightly tipsy, had been rambling nonsense, but when Elijah scooped her up and carried her out, the alcohol-induced haze only added to her confusion."W-What are you doing? We need to get back to the office!" she stammered.Elijah merely smiled, offering no explanation as his grip on her tightened slightly.The restaurant was always busy, even after lunch hours. The bustling crowd still filled the space, and Elijah's bold exit while carrying Marcia caused quite a stir. Eyes followed them, some with surprise, others with envy, particularly from the women who looked on.Marcia squirmed uncomfortably, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. She struggled to get down, but Elijah ignored both her protests an

    The next day, when Marcia woke up, her body felt sore and achy.Getting out of bed, her legs gave way briefly beneath her.She glanced at the empty bed and thought to herself that perhaps waking up without seeing Elijah was a good thing.A faint, indifferent smile tugged at her lips—who would have thought seducing Elijah could be so simple?Picking up the clothes strewn across the floor, she found they were torn beyond repair.She opened the wardrobe, grabbed a random outfit, and slipped it on. Heading to the bathroom, she splashed her face with cold water.Wiping the fog off the mirror, Marcia stared at her flushed face, and her mind drifted to her conversation with Claire.(Flashback)"I'm getting married to Elijah," Marcia said.Claire hesitated, her gaze filled with uncertainty. Marcia simply smiled. "I'm marrying such a great man. Shouldn't you be happy for me?""Then why are you staying at my place?" Claire asked, her hand resting on her stomach. After a long pause, she added in

    The entire company could sense that the boss was in a foul mood today.From the moment Elijah stepped into the office, an oppressive atmosphere settled over everyone. Conversations died down, and even the sound of typing on keyboards became noticeably quieter.Marcia propped her chin on her hand, staring at the closed door with growing unease.Elijah hadn't eaten breakfast this morning.She glanced down at her foot, guilt gnawing at her. Perhaps she had been too harsh earlier. If she had just gone along with him… it might not have been such a big deal after all.By noon, Elijah still hadn't come out of his office. Kevin strolled over, as nonchalant as ever, and casually invited Marcia to lunch."Still locked in there?" Kevin asked, pointing toward Elijah's office. Then, with a teasing grin, he added, "What's going on? Did you two fight?"Marcia sighed. "No, we didn't."Kevin smirked knowingly. "Oh, I see. Trouble in paradise? Or is it—" he leaned closer, dropping his voice, "a little…

    For Marcia, getting married—or not—made little difference. Even if the groom was Elijah, it wasn't particularly enticing.She cared even less about who the boss of Azure was; her mind was entirely consumed by thoughts of revenge.But when she heard Louis's furious roar, "You idiot! Are you trying to destroy yourself? Do you even know who she is? If you dare marry her, don't ever call me your father again!"Marcia felt an inexplicable pang of sadness. She could almost understand Louis. After all, when she had insisted on marrying Alan back then, her father had looked even more enraged.Elijah, as usual, remained calm and composed, not even sparing a glance at Louis. He responded with a detached tone, "What I've decided, no one can change."Sometimes, such nonchalant words could be even more infuriating.Louis, a former military man who lived by the principle of obedience, had always expected others to follow his lead.At 60, his physique was still robust, and even standing beside the t

    Her hand fumbled across the bed, finally reaching the bedside lamp. "You lunatic! It's your fault, not mine. Why do you always blame others? Kate left with someone else—what does that have to do with me? Let go of me!"She rolled her eyes in defiance, but her arms were too weak to resist. Just a little more, and she could grab the lamp...Alan's eyes burned crimson with rage. "It's all your fault! I was fine with Kate before you came along! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have given her to Harold. That bastard said he just wanted her for one night, but now he won't return her! He's no different from Elijah—both beasts! No, fools! Secondhand goods, and yet they enjoy it so much! Is every woman I've been with so desirable? Marcia, tell me—who's better, huh?!"He lost all reason, furiously trying to tear off Marcia's pants. But in his drunken state, he couldn't manage. Frustrated, he pressed against her through her clothes and shouted, "Say it!

    Meanwhile, back in his room, Booth snapped out of his daze.Covered in sweat and grime, he had no interest in showering after his conversation with Jane. Instead, he slumped onto the sofa, staring blankly into the distance.It was unclear how long he sat there before irritation drove him to his feet. Booth stormed into the bathroom, peeled off his shirt, and splashed cold water onto his face. Suddenly, something didn't feel right.Jane was staying on the 17th floor—that much he remembered clearly. So why had he seen her waiting for the elevator on the 22nd floor? This was a hotel, not a crowded office building where people often rode the elevator in the wrong direction just to secure a spot.A suspicion crept into Booth's mind—Jane was hiding something from him. He couldn't explain the feeling, but his instincts rarely failed him.Pulling out his phone, he tried calling her, only to find her phone was turned off."Damn it,"

    Calvin walked into the hotel lobby and spotted the manager, Charles, speaking on the phone at the front desk.The moment Charles saw Calvin, he hung up immediately and greeted him respectfully. "Sir, would you like me to arrange a car for you?"Calvin raised an eyebrow. "Your efficiency is quite impressive.""My apologies for earlier, sir. I hope you'll forgive us," Charles said with a polite smile.Calvin replied casually, "You were just doing your job, ensuring the guests are taken care of. By the way, she...""Please rest assured, sir. We'll take excellent care of her. Mr. Elijah has already instructed us," Charles responded quickly, knowing exactly who Calvin was referring to.Calvin chuckled. "Seems like he's not too busy in America.""He's just concerned about his wife, that's all. Sir, this way, please. Your car is ready." Charles gestured respectfully. Calvin glanced in the direction Charles indicated, seeing a black Mercedes-Benz van parked at the entrance.Calvin gave Charle

    Jane reached out to steady Marcia's back and said softly, "Sir, my name is Jane. May I ask for yours? I joined Sin Corporation the same year as Patricia—quite the coincidence, isn't it?"Calvin frowned slightly at Jane's sudden familiarity but answered curtly, "Calvin."Unbothered by his aloofness, Jane smiled and scanned the room numbers as they walked. "Oh, here it is—2711! Calvin, I almost forgot. Do you have her room card? Without it, we can't get in."After a moment of hesitation, Calvin handed Marcia's bag to Jane. "It should be in her bag. Check inside."Jane accepted the bag cheerfully and rummaged through it. "Found it!"She held up the card and swiped it against the door lock. With a soft beep, the door to 2711 clicked open."Come in, Calvin," Jane said, stepping aside.Calvin nodded and entered quickly, not noticing that Jane discreetly slipped the room card into her own pocket instead of returning it to the bag."Lay her down on the bed," Jane suggested. She glanced at Cal

    Calvin didn't drive. Partly because he had been drinking, and partly because it had been a long time since he had been this close to Marcia.Marcia was light as a feather on his back as he slowly carried her toward the hotel.He had grown used to keeping track of Marcia's every move, but her heart had always been out of his reach.As a child, Marcia would cling to his arm with a sweet smile, half-coquettish, half-pleading, as she said, "Calvin, when I grow up, let's get married, okay?"She was just speaking innocent words of a child, but he took them seriously.Her casual remark stayed with him all these years. He had waited for her to grow up, imagining her as his perfect bride. But when she finally did, she showed up holding Alan's hand."Calvin, this is Alan. I...I want to marry him. You're the most important person to me, so you're the first to know," she said.Back then, Alan was a nobody, his humble demeanor barely concealed by his clean, smiling face.Calvin couldn't recall wha

    Some people completely lose their memory once they get drunk.After just three glasses of red wine, Marcia had already lost all self-control.Kevin was slightly better off, still holding on to a sliver of rationality as Booth supported him. Kevin managed to exchange a few polite words with Bill and Cliff, ensuring they left the Cote Bistro with the contract in hand.Only after confirming its authenticity did Kevin collapse onto the sofa in the lobby, refusing to move no matter how hard Booth tried.After a chaotic mess, Booth entrusted Kevin to the lobby manager and went back to look for Marcia, only to find Calvin already carrying her. "I'll take her back to the hotel," Calvin said indifferently before striding off.Booth instinctively wanted to follow but was stopped by a waiter. Apparently, someone else had passed out in the private room.Pushing open the door, Booth found Myron slumped awkwardly in a corner, dozing.What's worse than one drunk person? Two drunk people—and worse st

    Kevin's eyes were slightly red, but he let out a hearty laugh. "Look at what you're saying. It's an honor for Azure to have you both here today!"With that, he downed another glass of red wine.Marcia hadn't expected him to drink so heavily and looked at him with concern. Just as she was about to intervene, Myron gently shook his head. "Gentlemen, Kevin is like a brother to me. We're mainly here to catch up today, so I won't say too much. Let me also raise a glass to you both! Even though Eli isn't here, I hope you'll consider working with us on my behalf."After speaking, Myron downed his glass in one go. This time, Bill and Cliff clinked glasses with him and took a sip of their own drinks.Bill set his glass down and chuckled. "Myron, I'll toast with you today, but next time, you'd better bring a wife, or marry Nancy already! Otherwise, don't even think about getting me to drink again."Cliff, after finishing his glass, was stopped by Alison, who took over drinking on his behalf.Ma

    After laughing, Marcia felt she had been too distant with Calvin, so she smiled at him and said, "Calvin, since you've returned to the country, I haven't properly hosted you. When are you heading back to Liverpool? Let me treat you to a meal before then.""I'll contact you after I get there," Calvin replied with a gentle smile, raising his glass toward her.Marcia nodded firmly and responded enthusiastically, "Alright."Just then, there was a knock at the door.Knock, knock, knock...As they were chatting, Booth pushed the door open and entered."Ma'am, everyone has arrived!" Booth announced.Marcia and Kevin exchanged a glance before quickly heading toward the door. Three individuals entered slowly as introductions were made, and the group exchanged pleasantries before taking their seats with smiles all around.Due to Elijah's influence, the guests were exceptionally polite. Myron also played the perfect mediator, lightening the atmosphere with a few jokes, making everyone laugh.Mar

    Calvin looked at Marcia's surprised expression and let a faint smile tug at the corners of his lips. "Are you really that shocked to see me?" he asked softly.Marcia shook her head with a light laugh. "I should be asking you that! You disappeared from the hospital that day without a word. What brings you here?""Elijah personally invited me. It's hard to say no to his invitations, don't you think?" Calvin chuckled. "I'm here representing Shine Glow Group."Kevin, who had been wearing a playful expression, paused for a moment, raising an eyebrow curiously. "SG Group?""The owner of SG, John Linton, is my uncle. He's not feeling well and specifically asked me to attend in his place," Calvin explained, extending a hand toward Kevin. "I'm Calvin, Marcia's childhood friend."Marcia couldn't help but laugh. "We grew up as neighbors. He's closer to me than a real brother. But wait—how did I not know John was your uncle? You don't even share the same last name!""It's through my mother's side
