The air of elegance filled the event hall as the public mingled, clinking glasses.

Blair came down from upstairs and looked around the hall. While he did not see Mable, Rory seemed popular as he was surrounded by women.

Amos approached and spoke in hushed tones, “Ms. Jefferson is in the ladies’ room, Master Blair.”

Blair nodded. It explained why he did not see her.

He walked over with a wine glass in hand.

Spotting Blair coming toward him, Rory dismissed the women around and approached him.

Rory gave Blair a chilling look. “The Fowlers are indeed the wealthiest and most powerful family in Dorland. It’s an extravagant party, don’t you think? I’ve learned a lot.”

Blair narrowed his eyes. “Stay away from Mable, Rory!”

Rory raised his brow. “Are you ordering me?”

He swirled his wine glass nonchalantly and smiled wickedly. “I haven't heard anything so ridiculous and funny in a long time. The one who should stay away from Mabes is you. You caused her grandfather’s death!

    As the car drove away, Blair clenched his fists hard until his knuckles popped to control his emotions. …In the car, Mable sternly glanced at Rory’s bracelet. “I’m warning you, Rory. Don’t use poison on Blair.” His handcrafted cuff bracelet concealed poison.Rory had two poisons, one that killed quickly and easily and another that caused days of agonizing pain.Mable did not wish either on Blair. Rory looked down at his bracelet, his expression unreadable. “You’re just asking for trouble, Mabes. “Why are you still sticking up for him after all he has done to you?” Rory was tempted to poison Blair tonight. If Mable had shown up just seconds later, Blair would have been a lifeless body by now. Mable looked out the window in silence before saying, “I hate Blair, Rory. The only thing on my mind was to kill him when I learned about Grandpa’s death.” Rory shouted angrily, “But you showed mercy anyway. You should have ended him with that stab to the chest.” He looked int

    Rory was twenty-seven this year. He had three more years before he turned thirty. He glanced at Mable indifferently and said, “I’m just keeping it in the family. What’s wrong with that?” Mable had no words. She sighed. “I remember you don’t believe in astrology.” “I don’t.” However… Rory started to believe it after the incident. He was better off believing there was a higher power at play. Rory stared into Mable’s eyes. He looked a lot calmer. “The old fart got one thing right. I am cold and ruthless.” Leaning against the seat, Rory lifted his head and rested his arm on his forehead. A while later, he said, “I don’t get what love is.” Growing up, Rory did not have much contact with the outside world, especially the opposite sex. Rory could not understand Mable’s feelings for Blair. Could a person be so in love with another? Mable fell silent before uttering, “You’ll get it sooner or later, Rory.” Rory straightened his back and turned to Mable. “If loving someo

    “Keep it from her,” Rory said without thinking twice. If Mable could not do the job, he would handle it for her. He wanted to make Blair pay a painful price. The next morning, Adam had the document delivered straight to Anthony. It did not take Anthony long to respond. Without delay, Adam met with Anthony that afternoon. Although Rory and the others did not say hello to Anthony during yesterday’s event, Anthony had noticed them. It was solely because Mable was with them.Anthony had caught wind that Rory and Blair fought over Mable at the party, too. He had suspicions about who these men were, but Adam came looking for him the next day. Adam briefly explained the purpose of his visit. Anthony was not quick to jump on board with the idea. He needed time to consider the proposal. The meeting took less than half an hour. Adam returned to the villa and reported the situation to Rory. “I can tell from his demeanor that he was wary of us.” Rory scoffed coldly. “I’d

    Rory saw a familiar figure.Blue robes, long black hair...It was that man’s signature appearance.Rory did not expect to see that man’s figure here after five years.He chased him out of the hospital and into the parking lot, where the man finally stopped.The man seemed to be aware that Rory was following him and deliberately led him to the parking lot.“Why are you following me?”The man turned around. He wore a mask that covered half of his face.He looked around fifty and stood with his hands behind his back. The long robe he wore gave him a somewhat ancient feel.Rory stared at him and narrowed his eyes dangerously. It had only been a suspicion before. Now, he was sure.“We met in Santaviz five years ago.”The man before him was the same man he had encountered when rescuing Mable in Santaviz five years ago.“Is that so?” The man frowned, seemingly deep in thought.Then, he said nonchalantly, “I don’t remember.”Rory sneered. “You might have forgotten, but I haven’t!

    X Group was brightly lit.Blair had been in meetings all day.Kyle placed the recent company reports in front of Blair, his attitude resolute. They had to start counterattacking Secret.X had lost nearly a year’s worth of revenue in just one week. If things continued, X would fall into an unsalvageable crisis.Blair sat in front of his computer, his deep gaze fixed on the data displayed on the screen.“Blair, if you insist on doing it your way, my only choice is to withdraw. After all, I have the entire Goodman family behind me. I can’t risk my entire family for your self-destruction!”Kyle sat in the chair with his legs crossed, flicking the cigarette between his fingers. His facial features were obscured by a thin veil of smoke.“Are you serious?” Solomon asked in a low voice.Kyle said faintly, “I never joke about such matters.”Blair looked at Kyle, paused, and said, “X was also built on your sweat and tears. If you want to leave, I won’t treat you unfairly.”Solomon’s ja

    After Mable’s disappearance, the first person Rory thought of was Blair.Who else would hide Mable but him?Thus, Rory immediately called Adam to gather a team and surround Royal View Villa.Before long, Blair rushed over after receiving the news.Rory sat in the car, exuding a menacing aura.He got out of the car when he saw Blair return. However, before he could speak, Blair questioned, “Rory, did you take Liv?”Liv had no enemies in Richworth, so her sudden disappearance made him think Rory might be involved.A hint of coldness flashed in Rory’s eyes. “Who’s Liv? Blair, where did you hide Mable?”Blair frowned, his gaze icy. “What do you mean? What happened to Mable?”Rory grabbed Blair’s collar. “What? You’re pretty shameless to ask that question. Wasn’t it you who kidnapped her?”Solomon saw this and hurriedly stepped forward. “Clam down, Rory. Master Blair has been at the company all day. He couldn’t have kidnapped Mable!”Blair gripped Rory’s wrist and wrenched him aw

    Mable stared at Aust. His gaze made her uncomfortable, as if she was prey.“If you think you can threaten Blair by kidnapping me, you’re wrong. I hold no place in his heart. There’s no use capturing me!”Aust clapped his hands. “Ms. Jefferson is clever. You guessed my motives for capturing you. However, it’s too early to conclude whether or not it’s useful.”He raised his hand, and the bodyguard pushed him out of the room.“Where’s the other woman?” He asked.The bodyguard replied, “She’s been screaming and making a ruckus since she woke up. So, we had to knock her out again. She hasn’t woken up yet.”Aust nodded and looked out of the window. “How much longer until we can leave?”“We can depart before daybreak.”...A sleepless night passed.Dawn approached, but there was still no news of Mable and Liv. Blair remained uneasy.Mable and Liv disappearing at the same time was undoubtedly aimed at him.The only ones who had a grudge against him and had the capability to kidnap

    In the Stelgar Sea.A massive cruise ship sailed on the calm sea. Aust sat in a wheelchair on the deck, holding a phone.“What’s the matter, Calvin?”Anthony’s questioning voice soon came from the other end of the phone. “Mr. Aust, did you kidnap anyone else besides Mable Jefferson?”Aust was not surprised that Anthony knew about this and admitted, “Yes. I also captured a woman named Olivia Page. I heard Blair has been looking for this woman for many years. I assume she’s important to him.”Taking one more person important to Blair was having an extra bargaining chip.“Mr. Aust, you should have consulted me before taking action.”Aust sneered, his eyes full of disdain. “That’s not included in the scope of our cooperation.”Over the phone, Anthony took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. “Olivia is one of mine.”Aust raised his brows. “Yours?”“Yes, I placed her around Blair.”He put a lot of thought into this move and had not gotten the most out of it yet. He could not l

    “Arthur proposed to Tracey?!”In the afternoon, Tracey posted several photos of her and Arthur in a hot air balloon. In one of the photos, she held a bouquet with a dazzling ring on her ring finger.[Yes, I do.]That was the caption.Blair hugged Mable and nodded with a smile. “Yeah, Arthur proposed to her today. Trace called to say they’ll prepare for the wedding after they return from their trip.”“That’s great!”Mable was sincerely happy for Tracey and Arthur.She asked Blair, “Do they have any ideas for the wedding? We can help them prepare in advance.”Blair said, “We can call Trace and ask.”Mable looked at the time. It was midnight in Monafett, and she did not want to disturb them by calling at this hour. She smiled and said, “I’ll call her tomorrow.”Getting two good news in a row today made Mable feel particularly good. After dinner, she could not help but want to drink some wine to celebrate.Blair had not drunk for a long time, either. Seeing her in high spirits,

    Kyle stared into Zoe’s eyes. He had indeed noticed it, but he was not sure yet.However, when Zoe called him by his full name, he was completely certain.Zoe had regained her memories.From the moment she woke up, her emotions had been off. Even Monica noticed something wrong with her, so how could he not have seen it?Kyle looked at Zoe, reaching out to brush the hair by her temples. “It’s been a long time since you called me that.”Zoe had not called him since waking up, but as soon as she did, she called him Kyle instead of Ky. He knew then she must have remembered everything.Although Kyle knew that this day would come sooner or later, he did not expect her to regain her memories at this moment.He was completely unprepared and caught off guard.Zoe lowered her head. “That’s what I used to call you, but you tricked me into calling you Ky.”She remembered everything as soon as she woke up.The events that happened when she had forgotten felt like a dream, too surreal to be

    Kyle named the baby Six not only because he was born at 6 pounds and 6 ounces but also because June 6th was the day they first met.He would always remember the scene when he first saw Zoe, even though their relationship started with deception, manipulation, and even revenge.Kyle caressed Zoe’s cheek and said, “Zoe, I’ve never told you this, but I fell in love with you the moment I saw you. It was love at first sight.“I want you to stay by my side forever and let me stay by your side forever. I’ll never let you go again in this lifetime.”Zoe’s eyes slowly reddened as she listened to Kyle’s heartfelt words.Indeed, she never knew he fell in love with her at first sight...They both did.Kyle gently wiped away her tears. “Zoe, I promise you. We’ll only part in death, never in life.”Zoe choked and nodded, burying her face in his chest as she cried.In her arms, Six seemed to sense his mother’s emotions and moved restlessly.Zoe quickly comforted him.“Let me.” Kyle took the

    At the hospital. When Zoe woke up again, it was already the next morning.As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Kyle sitting by her bedside.Kyle noticed her waking up and quickly held her hand. “Zoe, you’re awake. How do you feel?”Zoe stared at the man in front of her and blinked, feeling shocked.When she did not answer, Kyle immediately became nervous. “What’s wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”Zoe remained silent and continued to stare at him. Her eyes gradually turned red, and her nose tingled with a strong sense of sourness.Kyle’s heart clenched at the sight. “Zoe, don’t scare me like this. Zoe...”He was getting anxious and was just about to call the doctor when she suddenly grabbed his hand. “I... I’m okay. I just had a nightmare. I’m a bit groggy after waking up.”Kyle hugged her, his warm hand gently patting her back. “It’s okay. I’ve been by your side all along.”Zoe buried her face in his shoulder, softly humming without saying anything.At that mom

    “I see.”Outside the delivery room, Kyle’s family and the others were still waiting anxiously.Close to midnight, the door finally opened, and the nurse carried the baby out.“It’s a boy. Both mother and son are safe.”Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.Before long, Zoe was pushed out. Monica checked on the baby before hurriedly walking to Zoe’s side and taking her hand. “Zoe, you did so well.”“I’m okay, Mom.”Zoe was still very weak after just giving birth, and her voice was weak. Monica immediately told her husband to call the servants to brew a tonic and sent it over.Mable walked to Zoe and felt her heart ache when she saw the latter’s pale face, but she smiled and said, “Congratulations, Zoe.”Zoe smiled, no longer having the strength to speak.Blair and Solomon congratulated Kyle.Kyle nodded, not paying attention to them, and took Zoe back to the ward with the nurse.Zoe was a first-time mother, so she was extremely exhausted after giving birth an

    As soon as Mable learned that Zoe was about to go into labor, she rushed to the hospital immediately. It was late at night, and Blair was worried, so he accompanied her.When the two arrived at the hospital, Zoe had already been taken into the delivery room. Kyle followed her in, but his parents waited anxiously outside.Mable looked at Monica and Floyd and asked, “Isn’t Zoe’s due date still about ten days away? Why did it suddenly come early?”Monica said, “We’re not sure, either. After dinner tonight, Zoe said her stomach was hurting. Kyle helped her upstairs to rest, but not long after, he called for someone to prepare the car to go to the hospital...”Seeing Mable stare anxiously at the delivery room, Blair held her hand and comforted her. “Don’t worry. Zoe has been healthy her whole pregnancy. There shouldn’t be any problems.”Mable nodded. “Yeah, I hope both the mother and child are safe.”Soon, Solomon and Ines also arrived.Solomon greeted Kyle’s parents and asked, “How

    Without saying anything, Solomon placed his behind Ines’ head and kissed her.Ines wrapped her arms around his waist...Knock, knock!The untimely sound of knocking interrupted them.Ines jumped like a startled deer, eyes wide and cheeks red.The servant’s voice came from outside. “Sir, dinner is ready.”Solomon hugged Ines and cleared his throat. “Got it. We’ll be right there.”The servant acknowledged and left.Ines buried her head in Solomon’s chest and took a deep breath before saying, “Let’s go. Don’t want your parents to wait too long.”“Yeah.”Solomon stroked her head and looked at the drawing he had just completed. “Once it’s dry, I’ll have it framed and hang it in the bedroom, okay?”Ines asked, “In this bedroom?”Solomon nodded and kissed her forehead. “Yeah, we’ll probably come back to stay here often in the future.”Ines pursed her lips and smiled silently.“Let’s go have dinner.” Solomon led her downstairs.After having dinner at the Rowland residence, Solom

    Solomon embraced Ines from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. “I learned to draw when I was young and almost did fine arts for college.”“Why didn’t you?”Winning first prize in a national art competition indicated a high level of drawing skill.Solomon said, “Painting is just one of my many interests. I do it to pass the time when I’m bored. I’ve never thought of becoming an artist.”Ines nodded. “I see.”Solomon suddenly perked up and opened a small cabinet beside the bookshelf, taking out a canvas and some paints. “Come on, I’ll draw a portrait.”Ines was stunned. “Of me?”“Yep. Give me a moment.”Solomon led Ines to sit on the sofa, then went out to find a servant to bring him the easel.Although he had not painted in many years, he still had all the tools he used before.Before long, the servant helped him bring in the easel and other tools.After looking at the layout of the bedroom, Solomon asked Ines to sit in the soft chair by the window, where the lighting w

    Ines blinked. “I was just thinking about what to bring to your house tomorrow. I can’t go empty-handed...”Solomon laughed at her words. “You don’t need to bring anything. Just seeing you will make them happy.”“That won’t do. I still need to buy something.”Although she knew that Solomon’s parents did not lack anything, she could not just go without a gift. It was still necessary to have proper etiquette.Ines was a little nervous at the thought of visiting his parents tomorrow. “Can you tell me what your parents are like?”Solomon noticed her nervousness and squeezed her hand. “Don’t worry. My mom and dad are very nice. They won’t make things difficult for you.”Ines looked at him and nodded.With him by her side, she was not that worried.She heard Solomon say that his father liked tea, so she bought a gift box from the supermarket. In addition, she also brought some nutritional supplements to bring along when they go to Solomon’s house tomorrow.After buying everything, th
