There was an inherent wicked charm and untamed energy about Gavin.

As he approached step by step, Phoebe's heart inexplicably began to race.

Feeling flustered, she lowered her head.

She couldn't deny the man before her possessed an extraordinary allure, both in looks and demeanor. His every move exuded an irresistible charisma.

Yet, Phoebe's heart was already filled with someone else, leaving no room for anyone else.

"Let's go," Gavin said, his arm slightly bent in an elegant gesture, inviting Phoebe to take it.

Phoebe frowned slightly, her heart filled with hesitation and conflict.

    Alexander entered the grand banquet hall with his date in tow, commanding attention like a storm disturbing a calm lake. In an instant, the event's serene atmosphere was shattered, and a wave of whispers and speculation rippled through the crowd. His presence, as a figure of such significance, was akin to dropping a bombshell amidst the gathering of elites and dignitaries—impossible to ignore."Mr. Davis, welcome! We are honored by your presence," greeted a slightly overweight middle-aged man who rushed forward, his face plastered with an ingratiating smile. Bowing and scraping, he resembled a sycophantic lapdog, eager to curry favor with the powerful Alexander. Not long after, several others followed suit, surrounding Alexander in a small circle of flattery and eager conversation.Alexander's expression remained indifferent, his features as unreadable as the surface of a tranquil lake. He responded with a curt "Hmm," giving no clue to his inner thoughts or emotions."Is this your new

    Samantha's lips curled downward slightly, her eyes brimming with disdain and contempt. She cast a sidelong glance at Phoebe, sprawled on the floor, and let out a derisive snort."Look at you," she sneered. "Absolutely shameless. Exposing yourself like this and not even trying to cover up. Do you even know what dignity means? All this just to grab attention and fame—how utterly despicable. You'd stoop to any low, even desecrating an occasion as solemn as this with your vulgar antics. Absolutely disgraceful."Her gaze flicked momentarily to Alexander standing nearby.Noticing that his eyes, like those of the other men in the room, were locked on Phoebe, a pang of jealousy surged through her.In a coquettish tone, she said, "Alex, you wouldn't be interested in a woman this desperate, would you?"Samantha hadn't even noticed Phoebe until the sound of her fall drew her attention.But the moment her eyes landed on Phoebe's breathtakingly beautiful face, a spark of envy ignited within her, s

She must be waiting for Gavin.So, this was why she was so desperate to leave him—she wanted to throw herself into Gavin's arms.Damn it.

    LauraSince that night, an entire week had passed, and Laura had locked herself in her small room like a little snail, refusing to take a single step outside.The servants, worried about her prolonged isolation, began to grow uneasy. She hadn't left her room for days, skipping school and shutting everyone out. Afraid something might happen to her, one servant hesitated before deciding to report the situation to Gavin.Bringing food into her room, the servant glanced at Laura lying motionless on her bed. After much deliberation, she concluded it was best to inform Gavin.

He never mentioned her, nor seemed to care about her at all.The thought filled the servant with a pang of sympathy.

    Phoebe's words stung him deeply. Her deliberate detachment irritated him to no end."Phoebe, do you really think I'll believe you? How come I never noticed how good you are at pretending?" he mocked."Whether you believe me or not is up to you. But right now, please don't block my way,"she responded coldly."Phoebe, are you trying to get back at me?"His eyes narrowed."Yes, I am trying to get back at you. So what?" She smiled, then turned and started to walk away without looking back.But after a few steps, Alexander grabbed her arm again. "Tell me, how much do you want?"So, he was trying to buy her off again?Her heart trembled. She clenched her jaw stubbornly, standing tall."Why don't you keep your money for your fiancée?

Where did you hide her?"Tears immediately flooded her eyes. She wanted to know how else he planned to deceive her."Hermosa, this is something that can't be explained all at once."He tried to soothe her emotions."So, this means it's all true?

After two exhausting hours, they finally emerged.As they stepped out of the hospital, Laura spotted Wright walking towards them. She froze when she saw his bruised face, feeling a pang of guilt deep in her chest.Wright hadn't expected to run into them at the hospital. Due to the injury on his face, he'd been skipping classes the past few days, planning to return once he healed. Seeing the girl he liked in front of him while he looked so disheveled made him feel uneasy.But he quickly masked his discomfort with his usual cocky demeanor, squinting as he approached Laura and greeted her."What are you doing here?""I'm here to accompany Phoebe for a check-up,"Laura answered, biting her lip.Wright flashed a smile at Phoebe, offering a casual greeting.

    "Gavin, why do I never see Laura around lately? Is she busy with her studies?"During dinner, Phoebe set down her fork and gazed at Gavin's handsome and elegant profile, finally unable to hold back her question.The last time she saw Laura was just a brief encounter, and since then, she hadn't seen her once. Something felt off, but she couldn't pinpoint exactly what it was."...?"Gavin fell silent, clearly unaware of Laura's situation."Don't you care about your sister at all?"Phoebe complained, frustrated.What kind of brother was he? Gavin treated her so well, but he seemed so indifferent toward Laura. That really bothered her.
