I slept soundly throughout the night.

When I woke up, feeling refreshed, I pushed open the window and gazed upon the thriving flora outside. My mood brightened along with the scene before me.

I realized I was beginning to yearn for this kind of life—waking up without pressure, not worrying about becoming better to avoid disappointing looks and mocking words from my family. I didn't need to concern myself with trying harder to become the wife Damon would be proud of.

But, ironically, it was in this calm that I recognized a severe reality—

Avoidance wouldn't solve problems. I couldn't hide here forever, not going out, not working, not socializing.

I couldn't avoid seeing my parents and the other members of the Green family forever.

So, it was better to speak to them face-to-face and clear things up.

I wanted to tell them I wouldn't be with Damon anymore, regardless of whether he preferred Catherine or Lysarine.

    "Are you playing some kind of hellish joke?!"I was furious and flipped the tea table."That old bastard who reeks of infamy is already in his sixties. His son is older than me! And you want me to marry him?""Otherwise? Do you want to marry his son instead?"Marion mocked me, her eyes sneering. "My Fiona, you're quite the confident young lady. Based on your experience of stealing Catherine's love and marrying that lowly commoner, do you think you're qualified to marry the young and promising von Geller?""Your mother is right. Despite Old Geller's age, his family holds a hereditary noble title and significant wealth. His wife passed away a few years ago, so he's in need of a young bride. You should know, marrying Old Geller would make you a legitimate Baroness."I retorted angrily, "Don't you know that Old Geller's original wife was tortured to death by him?"They exchanged glances, seemingly surprised that I had already heard about

    I looked at the hypocritical man before me.Thinking back to that day when we met at the café, he had earnestly professed his love for me? He had said he wanted me to come back to him, to protect and cherish me forever.But now?The moment he saw Catherine's pitiful appearance, his soul seemed to have been ensnared by the devil.I felt like my eyes couldn't bear to witness this filthy scene any longer. I couldn't fathom whether my years of devotion to him had been corroded by the venom of a toad!I didn't want to engage with them any longer; I turned to leave."Stop right there!"Damon grabbed my wrist. "Where are you going? You have to apologize to Catherine, right now!""I'm sorry, Catherine. When I slapped you just now, I should have checked if your knight in shining armor was conveniently behind you. My apologies for reducing him to a spineless, rabid dog."My sharp retort left Damon stunned, taking him severa

    Catherine's POV:I never expected that today would turn out to be the darkest and unluckiest day in my years with the Greene family."This is insane! That guy named Brenda... whatever? Branka or Brandi, that arrogant brat! Who does he think he is?"My adoptive father, Bennett, paced around the living room with his hands behind his back, infuriated, like an irritated sled dog with a full bladder.I truly couldn't understand what was the point of him pacing like that. It was just annoying to watch."He's probably just an arrogant hoodlum," my adoptive mother, Marian, fumed. "Daring to act like he's above the Greene family? I think he's just toying with us; he's after Fiona's money!""Mom," I quickly walked up to her, concerned, and said, "Doesn't that mean my sister is being deceived? What are we going to do? God, she's not still in the dark about this, right?"Marian came up to me and cradled my face in her hands.She always did

    The car was heading towards the Silver Star Bay Estate—Mine and Brenda's home.After over an hour of bumpy travel, I somehow fell asleep.When I woke up, I found myself in Brenda's embrace. I wasn't sure when he had carried me over or how long he had been holding me in this position. But I could feel that he had become somewhat stiff from being half-crushed by me, yet he still maintained this exhausted posture, not wanting to wake me up."Are you... tired?" I asked, concerned."I can endure this level of tiredness for a long time," Brenda replied, mentioning 'endurance,' which instantly made my face turn red.I felt so strange. How come I've been thinking about that kind of thing all day? The old me would never have been like this. With him, I was gradually transforming into someone even unrecognizable to myself.Smelling the faint scent of sandalwood on Brenda's body, I rested my head on his chest. I found myself greedily wish

I haven't forgotten why I'm here."Fiona, you're back!"As I entered the office, my colleagues greeted me warmly.I believe most of them are still wise and friendly—The rumors about my wedding and my relationship with Damon have become off-limits topics."By the way, Fiona, there's a department manager meeting at 9:30. You're aware of it, right? I heard Mr. Patrick has something important to announce."A colleague informed me.My heartbeat slowed down for a moment.Could it be that he's going to announce his wedding with Katherine?The irony is just too much

    "Next, I announce a new appointment effective from the first day of the next month. Katherine Green will be appointed as the Design Director of our jewelry division at Picard Group."Damon spoke, and the room fell silent.All eyes turned to me simultaneously, as Katherine was about to take over my position.The few colleagues who had challenged me earlier from Katherine's side couldn't help but wear triumphant expressions.It seemed like they felt they had made the right bet.Damon also looked at me. "Fiona, as the former Design Director, you will be transferred to the position of Design Consultant. The job responsibilities and salary will remain the same, but following the procedure—""Thank you, no need. I came today to resign and hand over my duties."I interrupted Damon firmly, which caused murmurs throughout the room.Damon's face darkened. "Your resignation application has not been approved yet. Currently, you are s

    Maybe they were intimidated by my aura, as no one dared to speak up after that.I didn't want to waste any more time with them, so I turned and left the conference room."Fiona!"Damon ran up and grabbed my arm."What do you mean? Are you trying to ruin me?"I looked at him with a puzzled expression, "That's quite a fresh question, Damon. Weren't you the ones trying to ruin me first?""I'm just being truthful, asking you to return what belongs to Katherine."Damon said with sincerity, "Fiona, I thought I had given you enough face. But it seems you're the one who doesn't care about face anymore. Katherine was still pleading with me this morning, begging me not to reveal this. It's unbelievable; I can't believe I've let her down for so long!"I shrugged, "So now you have plenty of time to make it up to her. All I need is a resignation letter signed by Mr. Patrick."Damon replied, "I won't sign it."He put on a stubb

    The car arrived, but I didn't see Brendon as I had been eagerly anticipating. Instead, his driver, Percy, was there."Madam, Mr. Capie has some unexpected matters to attend to, so he can't come right now. He asked me to escort you to the office lounge and wait for him there. Alternatively, if you'd like to go home first, that's also an option."Percy explained to me.Although I felt a slight disappointment, I completely understood. I knew Brendon's work was demanding, and I also felt embarrassed about my emotional outburst this morning."It's alright, I don't have any other plans. I'll wait for him here."I replied.I hadn't been to Brendon's workplace before, but I knew it was located in the city hall. However, the city hall was vast, with several office buildings in different sections.Percy led me to a lounge that was luxuriously decorated, resembling an executive suite in a five-star hotel. There was a comfortable relaxation area

    "No, I'm wearing two masks." Eufez comforted her. I then noticed that beyond the mask, there were some bare scars extending out. I couldn't help but frown: "You did it yourself?" "Damn it, Brenda, would you stop talking. I've just coaxed her." Orpheus complained and said to Fiona, "Don't worry, it's just a little hurt." Detectives, you know, always bleed a little." Fiona whimpered, "Take off your mask and let me see it." "No." Eupheus took a step back, covering his mask. Fiona wants to come forward. I took her by the arm and sarcastically said, "It's too embarrassing to be like this." Come down with me and I'll have the doctor change you back." Fiona looked back at me immediately. "Can the wound on his face be healed?" I said, "Of course you can. It just takes a lot of suffering. But don't worry, he brought it on himself." Fiona was relieved to hear me say that. After all, even a little pain, but still better than this. Then she wiped away her tears and begged earnestly,

The masked man laughed.I waited for him to laugh enough before he replied, "I was tied up last time, and I'm tied up again this time. He probably thought I was lying to him.""Oh, that makes sense."He nodded thoughtfully."Maybe I should have sounded a little more aggressive, or... Why don't you send him some markers? Do you think I should send him your ear or your finger?""Neither, thank you.""Ha ha, that's not up to you."With that he strode toward me.And at once I took from my waist the pistol that Eupheus had given me: "Stop still!""Ha ha, good."He stopped, but still looked at me with a smile on his side.

    Jenny 'Pov: He bowed his head obediently. And that's when I saw his eyes behind the mask. His eyes were dark blue, like a blue lake, a frozen lake. At first glance, it is filled with light, happy, clear and crystal thin ice. But a closer look revealed that the lake was filled with a thick sadness and a deep, suffocating melancholy. I feel like I've seen those eyes before. Unfortunately, his eyelids and eye sockets were also slashed, and I couldn't make out his face. "Beautiful eyes indeed... I'm kind of falling in love with you, too." "Control your heart, miss. I don't want to be blinded one day." "Ha ha! I laughed a few times and couldn't help but sigh: "You are not an ordinary killer." "Well, what do you mean?" "Because of your eyes, of course. Also, you seem to be wearing a little too much perfume, Mr. Killer. Assassins don't wear perfume this strong, unless you're in a hurry

She already had a fight with me the last time I tried to break up our partnership outside the hospital. This fucking woman has all the evidence she needs to work with me. I underestimated her skills and overestimated my judgment. Every time she came up with a plan of action, I was completely caught off guard. Because I'm full of Fiona, and I miss her and I owe her. I don't have time for anything else. She said that unless we continued to work together, she would tell Fiona everything I had ever done with her. Damn it. I had to keep working with her. At the very least, I need her to think that I'm still going to cooperate. But it never occurred to me that this serpent-hearted woman was thinking what I was thinking. She's cheat

    Fiona 'Pov: Which is weird, because they used to hate each other. It's hard enough for Orpheus not to scold Brenda, but why the sudden change of heart today? "I don't know." Ophius sighed and said, "Maybe I did do something wrong." "Ophius?" "I'm fine." Eufez raised his lips and smiled, but his brow was still bitter. I couldn't help but say, "Has anything happened recently? You don't look very well." 'I'm fine, Fiona. Really, I just... Reflecting on myself." "But you look tired." "Is it? Ofeisqiang cheered up and smiled, "Maybe I've been working overtime too long recently." Work, you know, it's always with us, we never lose a moment, more than the family dog."

I doubt it. And he sent a file directly. "This is the thing." "Someone put this virus in my phone. That's why your photos were stolen." "Is there such a virus?" "Of course, my colleague told me that this virus has been in my phone for more than half a month!" If you hadn't warned me, I wouldn't have found out now." "All right." I secretly saved the virus source file and sent it to my company secretary, asking her to help verify the authenticity. Then I asked him, "Well, can we find out who planted this virus?" "Of course." He agreed very easily. But when I asked who that person was, he suddenly fell silent. "Brenda." Ofez hesitated for a long time, then said, "The virus came from Branda

"What could be more important than picking you up? Just wait and I'll call him." "No need." It's good that Orpheus isn't here, because I don't want to leave the hospital just yet. Rachel looked at me in surprise. "Why? You don't want to go back and see Brenda, do you?" "HMM." I wanted to see him today. How could I just leave? "All right, all right."
