Rachel was taken by a light blue fishtail dress, and the salesperson enthusiastically introduced it as their new designer piece for the season.

"Look at how it accentuates your figure, it's like it was tailor-made for a mermaid princess. And those crystals, they're genuine Austrian crystals."

As the salesperson raved about the dress, I caught a glimpse of the price tag - $110,000?

"Tailor-made for a mermaid princess? Will it turn into bubbles when you put it on?" I couldn't help but tease. "And all those Austrian crystal embellishments, under well-refracted indoor lighting, they'll make you look quite well-endowed, Rachel."

I offered my honest opinion: the dress wasn't suitable for Rachel's body type. She had a full upper body and long, solid legs. The fishtail design would accentuate the flaws in her figure.

Rachel valued my opinion and nodded. "You're right, and the price of $110,000 is quite outrageous."

I casually picked up a violet silk

    Tina cried and lamented that she couldn't afford such an expensive dress and that her father would break her legs if she spent so much money.The salesperson had no choice but to call the store manager—Before long, an elegant gentleman in his early thirties walked in, wearing a sharp business suit and a serious expression.I heard the salesperson call him Mr. Dawson."What's going on here?"The salesperson explained the situation to Mr. Dawson."It's all this woman's fault!"Tina pointed at me, furious. "She deceived me, she did it on purpose!"I innocently shrugged my shoulders. "I didn't deceive you; you wanted to make a bet with me. But the result of that bet shouldn't make the innocent store bear the consequences of your whims.""Madam, you—"Mr. Dawson turned towards me, but before he could finish his sentence, his expression suddenly changed.I noticed him looking at the emerald ring on m

    Brenda pov:As soon as I entered, Maria told me anxiously that Fiona looked terrible, that she had not eaten dinner and had drunk half a bottle of red wine upstairs by herself.I didn't even have time to take off my coat before I rushed upstairsShe was so drunk, she didn't even know who I was.I did not expect that this little quarrel would bring her so much trouble, if it was not too busy these days, I would not have left her alone and delayed the initiative to repair the relationship.Yeah, she's had a really hard time.I admit I've never really tried to understand what she's been through.But no amount of sympathy or connection could reconcile me to her thinking of me as Damon!I picked Fiona up by the waist and lifted her onto the big bed.She was drunk, too drunk, her pale skin a rosy pink under the red wine.She kissed me back, but I wasn't sure who the man in her head was that was touching her right now."Fiona, who am I?I ordered her to call me by name.But she did not speak

    I held my wife until she made even breathing sounds and fell into a deep sleep.Her cheeks faded and her soft jelly-like lips closed slightly.She's really cute.I got up, took a shower, went out on the balcony and lit a cigar.This afternoon, my assistant Collins told me that he had received a message from Pete in the Dawson family.Said he saw Fiona and her friends shopping at the mall, getting picked on by Damon's sister Tina.Instead of asking them to help, I calmly thought about it and decided to believe that Fiona really could handle it on her own, as she had promised.She's really smart. She played that woman around so easily.I'm finally starting to realize that Fiona really is different from other women.She is a woman who is more willing to stand beside me and resist the wind and rain than to hide behind her husband.But she has her pride, and I have my responsibilities.I called Collins.'

    I was slightly touched.You see, there's quite a difference in interests between men and women.That's also why clothing stores in malls always have seats for men to wait while women try on clothes and take their time selecting.Back when I was with Damon, he detested accompanying me on shopping trips the most.Every time, there would be a long string of complaints.But today, Brenda actually volunteered to come shopping with me, which truly surprised me.However, I also considered his experience. Moreover, I had just been to the mall with Rachel yesterday and didn't really have anything I wanted to pick out.I shook my head, "I don't really have anything in mind."If it were about viewing exhibits, those abstract design-related professional works, I couldn't imagine how boring it would be for Brenda."Since that's the case, let me arrange an activity. Would you be interested in joining?"Brenda said.Curio

    "Hey! Fiona, you're back!"Before I could catch Brenda's response, I was called out by Samon, who suddenly turned towards me.I felt a bit disappointed, but also somewhat relieved.I wasn't sure if I really wanted to hear that answer from Brenda, the regret or unwillingness spoken through his words.My expression turned a bit grim, and Brenda carefully noticed my unusual demeanor."What's wrong, Fiona? Are you feeling unwell?"I shook my head, "I might just be a little tired."Shooting might not seem physically demanding, but it's a sport that requires intense concentration.Brenda said that for a first-timer like me, half an hour was already pushing the limits of endurance."We'll head back for today and come again next time.""Yeah, okay."I nodded; indeed, I had no more enthusiasm to continue playing.Samon waved goodbye to me, "Fiona, goodbye.

    "You have no idea how significant your appearance is to me."Brenda's serious expression had me truly captivated.In that moment, I found myself actually hoping to drown in his beautiful blue eyes."Listen carefully, Fiona. These words, I'm saying them for the first time and the last time."I felt as if I were hypnotized, my body, my mind, my brain, all becoming clear and blurry with every word Brenda spoke."What I've done for you wasn't difficult, nor was it as troublesome as you might imagine. Your timing as my wife, appearing when you did, helped me solve life's greatest challenges. My marital status also provided greater stability to my career, so it's simply a matter of providing convenience fairly. As for Jenny, she doesn't exist in our lives, and my kindness to you isn't solely because you resemble her."Until Brenda finished speaking and began to hold me close, kissing me, my awareness remained immersed in the charm of his voice.During dinner, Brenda told me about the Cappe

    I saw Adam sitting at the bar, engaged in lively conversation with two men next to him.They were likely his friends or colleagues, and he seemed relaxed in their company.I thought that if I were to approach him now, it might not yield the best results. After all, considering the physique and build of his friends, there was a good chance they were also involved in law enforcement.I really didn't want to be scrutinized by a bunch of police officers with a group of male companions around me—Oh my god! That image is just hard to imagine.I regretted a bit, why did I invite six male models out for drinks all at once today?Even if I had invited two fewer, a police car would have been sufficient to transport them.I turned my head away. Below, I was afraid of Adam recognizing me.However, I also didn't want to miss the chance of a destined encounter we had initially had."Rachel, you seem a bit off."A male mo

    "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.
