The scent of fresh tobacco lingered inside the car. Jamie rolled down the window completely, blowing away the smell of smoke.

Then, he grasped the steering wheel firmly and gently caressed it. After a moment, he stepped on the gas pedal and drove toward Paityn’s villa.

The night breeze brushed against his face, sharpening Jamie’s thoughts and lending a more severe expression to his features. What was originally a forty-minute drive, he completed in just twenty-five. He ended up arriving five minutes earlier than Paityn.

Jamie parked the car in a shadowy spot and sat quietly inside. Then, he waited. Everything was still on this spring night. Fireworks could be seen sporadically bursting in the distance. Their lights were faint and lonely from afar.

It reminded Jamie of the relationship he shared with Paityn. They were always on the edge of something meaningful, but they never experienced a grand and passionate explosion.

Not a single "I love you" had ever been spoken between them

    As Paityn stepped on the gas pedal, her expression turned distant. She watched Carol happily dive into Jamie’s arms with no hesitation. It was a plain betrayal. The little girl went straight to his side! Paityn’s mood felt heavier as she sat in the front seat. She had no choice but to drive, pulling up in front of the small villa within seconds. Through the rearview mirror, she caught a glimpse of Jamie. However, he paid no attention to her. Instead, he carried Carol out of the car wordlessly.The soft yellow light from the wall lamp cast a warm glow, highlighting Jamie’s tall and steady figure. He walked away with calm and confident strides. It was clear Carol liked him very much. After all, her tiny arms were wrapped tightly around his neck while she peeked back at Paityn. Children often pick up on the unspoken tension between adults, and Carol seemed to sense the undercurrents between them.This was Paityn's house, and yet Jamie moved as if he were the master. The housekeeper

    Paityn remained silent. She was unsure of how to respond.Jamie's gaze was intense and searching. However, he lowered his eyes to look at the little one nestled in his arms after a moment. Carol was sound asleep and her face was peaceful. At that moment, his expression softened with fatherly affection. However, the warmth vanished when he looked up again. It was replaced by his usual composed detachment and a quiet sense of pride and restraint.Paityn couldn't help but think back to when she first started developing feelings for Jamie a couple of years ago. Perhaps it was this very air of nobility and distance that drew her in. He was powerful and handsome. Given the fact that he came from a wealthy and influential family, he had never lacked women’s affection.Jamie gently tucked Carol in and made sure her blanket was secure before getting off the bed and standing. His eyes fell on Paityn as he stood by the door. He said in a soft but firm voice, "Let’s talk in your bedroom."

    Some were cold, while others were lively.At the Bright Villa, tonight was the wedding night of Keaton and Yanni. His parents had moved to another house for the occasion and had thoughtfully taken Ella with them, promising to return her in a week. Gustavo said that Keaton should spend quality time with Yanni, especially since she rarely had such a long holiday because she was a doctor.Keaton and Yanni were grateful for his parents' thoughtfulness and they accepted this arrangement. As night fell, Keaton was downstairs dealing with various chores while Yanni went upstairs to remove his makeup and take a shower. After a long day, she surprisingly didn’t feel tired. She looked around the new house, taking in all the details.A gilded vanity had been added to her room. The furniture and curtains were replaced with softer hues. Keaton had redecorated everything according to Yanni’s preferences, including a larger and softer bed.After applying her skincare products, Yanni settled i

    Keaton was so good in bed that Yanni found herself unable to resist. Before long, she was gently pressed onto the carpet beneath him. They kissed deeply, and their bodies entwined in a warm embrace.As their clothes fell away, they couldn’t contain their eagerness to move to the bed, where their new journey together truly began on this wedding night.…As he leaned against the sleek black Land Rover parked by the roadside, Gael exhaled a cloud of smoke into the night air. The chill wrapped around him like a cloak. Gael was dressed in a thin wool coat. He felt the weight of his thoughts pressing heavily on him. He knew he shouldn’t be here. Yanni was now someone else’s wife, and his presence could only serve to deepen the wounds of the past.However, sleep eluded him. Ever since he had sent Emilia away, the realization of the preciousness of his marriage with Yanni had hit him like a freight train. The nights stretched on. They were filled with a restless longing and a gnawing se

    Jamie closed his eyes to rest for a moment. Some movement began downstairs. It was the babysitter starting her chores. Carol was in his arms, and she squirmed a bit. Perhaps it was because Jamie was holding her tightly, which made it difficult for her to escape, and that resulted in a hint of grievance. “I need to go to the bathroom.”Jamie woke up and opened his eyes to look at the child in his arms. Carol had shiny black hair that reached her ears, and her skin was fair and warm from a good night's sleep. Her narrow shoulders and small body made her particularly adorable, especially in the eyes of a father. Even though Carol could go to the bathroom by herself, Jamie still propped himself up and lifted her out of the blankets. Then, he carried her all the way to the bathroom. Carol felt a bit shy. After all, she was deeply enchanted by Jamie. Her tiny hands were tightly wrapped around his neck, and she clung to him like a little koala. At that moment, she felt especially hap

    From the nearby babysitter's perspective, she saw a family of three embracing. And it was full of love and affection.…Carol was wrestling with her mashed potatoes during breakfast.Paityn observed the little girl for a while before she looked up at Jamie and said, "I have something I want to talk to you about."Jamie’s gaze towards her was somewhat unclear.Paityn might've had a fiery temper, but being looked at like that by Jamie made her feel a little uneasy. She brushed aside a strand of hair from her cheek and spoke in a very soft tone, "Let’s wait a bit longer before taking Carol back. I’m worried she won’t adjust well. She’s only just returned from Silvercrest not long ago."Jamie’s eyes were deep and inscrutable. Overall, he didn’t look too happy. Before he could say anything, however, Carol lifted her head and spoke softly while she was still battling her mashed potatoes, "I want to visit Grandpa and Grandma. I also want to go to school… Mama."Jamie affectionately

    Zoe replied, "With Jamie's low-key personality, do you really think he would have shared a toast with Yara in a situation like last night? He must have wanted to provoke someone."Mason quickly understood, "He's really good at hiding things."Zoe guessed that Jamie probably just found out. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to hold it in for long. She didn't say much more because she heard familiar footsteps from the entrance. Then, Jamie came in carrying a cute little girl.Just as the household staff had said, the little girl was clearly a child of the Lockwood family.Mason felt a rush of excitement. He had envied the Sanders family for having Lola last night. Now, however, the Lockwood family suddenly had such a big addition. Hey, Carol looked to be at least four years older than Lola.Mason thought to himself that it didn't matter how successful Lorian's business was. He's still slightly behind Jamie when it comes to having children. For crying loud, Jamie’s child is already old

    Meanwhile, Mason sneered, "You're gloating now, but just wait—you'll regret it later! Paityn isn't as easy to deal with as Tegan. She’ll definitely have you crying for dear life! "Don't bother coming back asking for help when that happens. Your mom and I will be too busy picking Carol up from school, going shopping, and taking her to the amusement park!"Jamie didn’t respond.Mason ignored him and went upstairs with Zoe to check out the rooms. The south-facing bedroom was indeed spacious and bright, measuring over 1000 square feet. Zoe looked at the layout and had already formed some initial ideas, while Mason added some suggestions. Surprisingly, Carol was also getting along well with them.Once the two grandparents had settled everything, Jamie finally said slowly, "Carol will stay here for two months, but she will return to Paityn afterward."Mason was not pleased. "What? You're not bringing her home?"Jamie replied, "I have my own plans."Mason scoffed, "Plans? Heh, you’r

    Roselyn suddenly understood. "It's Ocelotte! Your grandmother has been talking about him all the time."Molly forced a smile.Roselyn didn't think this child seemed sweet at all. Although she was close to Molly and her grandmother, she had always been hired to do the work, so she didn't dare to say too much.Molly returned to her room and changed back into her clothes, thinking about her conversation with Roselyn.Grandmother knew about Ocelotte.When Molly and her grandmother were at their lowest point, barely surviving, she would tell her grandmother stories every day. Molly said there was a very good boy named Ocelotte, who had gone abroad to study. When he returned, he would be with Molly, and the family would have one more person.Though her grandmother couldn't see anymore, every time she heard about Ocelotte, she would unconsciously smile.Ocelotte, such a beautiful name.…Molly finished washing up and went to her grandmother's room.

    When Molly came out of the bathroom, she was wearing the hotel's bathrobe. It was loosely draped over her slender figure, accentuating her delicate frame. The bedroom was brightly lit. Ocelotte had just washed in the bathroom next door. He was leaning casually against the large bedhead and flipping through a hotel magazine. He was only wearing black pants, and his long, fit body was on full display. Molly didn’t dare look at the water droplets on Ocelotte's body. She carefully held onto the edge of the bed and knelt beside him. With a memory of how he had looked before, she leaned in to kiss him. A large hand grabbed the back of her head, urgently pulling her toward him. Then, all the fiery memories came flooding back. Molly had sex with Ocelotte.…Ocelotte’s continued entanglements had stretched over several rounds. By the time they were done, it was nearly 2:00 am.Molly lay there, nearly lifeless, while the man remained full of energy. He rolled off the bed, heading to t

    The parking lot was cold, making Molly shiver. Ocelotte opened the door of gray Cullinan, gesturing for Molly to get in. She hesitated, afraid that the wine stains on her clothes would dirty his car. However, it was clear that he didn’t mind. Ocelotte's eyes showed a hint of displeasure as he commanded, “Get in.”Only then did Molly cautiously get in, trying her best not to dirty his car. After a moment, Ocelotte followed and got into the car. Inside, the only sound was the faint click of seat belts, and that small noise made Molly feel like a startled bird. She turned her head slightly and whispered, “Where are we going?”Ocelotte buckled his seatbelt, his dark eyes deep and unreadable. After a long silence, he replied with a touch of mockery, “To the hotel. "What’s this? After a few years in the entertainment industry, you’ve learned how to play hard to get with men and pretend to be innocent?”“I haven’t,” Molly quickly responded. Her voice was husky and tinged with hes

    The private room immediately fell silent. At first, someone muttered something like "crazy" under their breath. When they saw it was Ocelotte, however, no one dared to say another word. Ocelotte slowly stood up. He stepped over the red wine stains and walked straight to Molly’s side. He looked down at her from a height, taking in her disheveled state. He looked at the red wine stains on her long lashes. Her lips were bitten and broken, and a bloodstained mark on her pale neck. Molly tilted her head back, and her body trembled slightly. Their gazes intertwined. Ocelotte’s voice was low and hoarse as he stared into her eyes and asked, “Is this the life you’re chasing? Are you happy? Is it a good feeling, being humiliated for a little bit of money?”The people in the room were quick-witted, and with just a glance, they knew exactly what to do. The female stars and models immediately opened the bottles of red wine. Then, they poured the wines over themselves, dousing thei

    In the private room, about ten people were there, including Ocelotte. The atmosphere was lively. Except for Scarlett, no one knew that Ocelotte and Molly were old acquaintances. So, when the second-generation rich were acting up, they didn’t spare Molly. Since she was the most attractive one in the room, they particularly forced alcohol on her. Three glasses of red wine were neatly placed on the coffee table. A man named Mayson Hogan took a check for 10 million dollars from his pocket and pointed at the three glasses of wine.Mayson said to Molly, “Don’t you want to pull in some investments? Drink these three glasses, take this check, and consider it my investment.” If Molly drank those three glasses, she’d either be dead drunk or fall over. Scarlett immediately forced a smile, saying, “Molly still has to play cards with you. Let me drink this wine. How about I pour three more glasses, Mr. Mayson?” After saying that, Scarlett poured two more glasses. Before she could dr

    An hour later, the gray Cullinan slowly drove into the Sanders Manor. Ocelotte opened the car door, his tall frame of six-foot-two passing through the foyer and into the living room. Although it was already the middle of the night, the Sanders Manor was still brightly lit. Noah was waiting for his youngest son to return late. Hearing the noise, Noah put down the chess pieces in his hands. He looked up and smiled at Ocelotte, who looked heartbroken. "Out prowling in the middle of the night? Did you catch anything?" Ocelotte took off his coat and casually tossed it onto the sofa. Then, he instructed the housekeeper, "Make me some sandwiches, Kendra." Kendra had always been fond of him. She quickly untied her apron and went to the kitchen. A little while later, she brought over some sandwiches.As Ocelotte ate the sandwiches in large bites, Noah silently walked over. The latter watched his son and silently urging him to hurry up.Ocelotte put down the sandwich and said indif

    The night was as dark as ink. The gray Cullinan blended into the night, slowly fading away in front of Molly, the red tail lights glimmering like fleeting fireworks. Ocelotte was here one moment and gone the next.“I miss you, Ocelotte.” Molly stood in the darkness, murmuring softly. The wound on her knee split open, blood dripping onto the gray concrete floor, forming a stark and heartbreaking contrast. Her small, almond-shaped face looked pale, almost ghostly in the black night. Suddenly, the car ahead came to a stop. With tears at the corners of her eyes, Molly's lips trembled uncontrollably. Yet, she managed to force out a fragile smile. Ocelotte! Ocelotte! Molly ran toward him quickly, forgetting the bleeding knee and the boundaries Ocelotte had set for her. She was to never appear before him again.Molly only wanted to go to him and see him once more, just to get a chance. The expensive car and the distinguished man still made her hesitate just one meter awa

    Behind the car, Molly saw him. She stood there dazed, staring blankly as the gray Cullinan slowly drove away. Her face was drenched in rain and confusion. She knew all too well the vast gulf between them. One was the second son of the Sanders Group, the president of Fowlerlotte Tech Co. with a status worth billions. Meanwhile, Molly was just a small-time actress. They were as far apart as clouds and mud. Not to mention, she carried a past full of stains that couldn’t be washed away, no matter how hard she tried. Molly was lost in her thoughts, and the director’s angry roar jolted her back. “Do you not want to finish filming? Dragging your feet like this! If you acted better, we wouldn’t have to keep redoing the scene!” Scarlett quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, although she knew exactly what was going on. The director wanted to have sex with Molly, but she refused, so now he was deliberately making things difficult for her. Sometimes, Scarlett couldn’t he

    Although Ocelotte didn’t engage in those matters himself, as a member of the Sanders family, he was well aware of the ways of the business world. If it had been someone else, he might have been indifferent, understanding it as just a means to make a living. However, it was because it was Molly that he only found her shameless. Ocelotte looked at Molly and deliberately asked with a mocking tone, "Oh? Is there another act?"Molly's body trembled slightly.The senior manager finally picked up on the situation. She glanced at Molly, then at Ocelotte. The young tech mogul's eyes were filled with disdain and mockery, leaving the scene unbearably awkward.Still, Scarlett, who had witnessed her share of tense moments, quickly shifted the topic.However, Ocelotte showed no intention of being considerate. He opened his laptop with a loud snap and ruthlessly dismissed her. "Ms. Molly does not align with our company's image. Please show her out, Sarah."…Ocelotte's assistant, Sarah Moss
