Lucius opened the lottery app, checked the winning numbers, and nodded confidently. "That's right. The numbers I bought match the winning numbers."

Isabella stared in disbelief before joy took over. She ran around the room and patted Lucius on the shoulder, laughing. "Haha, I didn't expect you to be so lucky! Since you won us the prize, I'll let go of all our past grievances."

She wore a magnanimous expression, as if forgiving all past wrongs.

With that, she picked up the spoon from the table and excitedly finished her bowl of soup. She was so happy that she couldn't help but eat.

Lucius lazily leaned back in his chair, casually glanced at Isabella, and said, "That's the spoon I used. It has my saliva on it. You're indirectly kissing me."

Ew—! If you don't say anything, no one will consider you mute.

Isabella quickly ran to rinse her mouth.

At night, when it was time to shower, the inevitable dispute over who would use the bathroom first ensued between them.

    Isabella drew a line down the middle of the bed and sternly warned Lucius, "This is the boundary. If you dare cross it..."She paused, making a chopping gesture at his neck, her face serious, "I'll show no mercy!"Lucius glanced at her nonchalantly and said in a tired tone, "You better control yourself and not get any ideas about me."And so, she inexplicably ended up sharing a bed with Lucius. Isabella couldn't help but cry out in her heart, "Oh, God, what are you doing to me?"Lucius, on the other hand, was very relaxed and soon his even breathing indicated he was sleeping soundly. Isabella was not so lucky; she stared wide-eyed and couldn't fall asleep.She sneaked a glance at Lucius and saw that he was sleeping soundly without any impure thoughts, which reassured her a bit. Gradually, sleepiness overcame her and she drifted off.In her dream, her grandfather was back, lovingly calling her, "Bella, come eat."Her grandfather had made delicious Beef Shank, and she happily went to ea

    Thalia stepped forward, her tone light and dismissive. “The results for today’s interview have already been finalized, and all positions have been filled. Therefore, the interviews are over.” Isabella’s eyes were steely as she stared at Thalia. “I am one of the candidates. I haven’t been interviewed. Why are the interviews concluded?” Thalia chuckled, condescendingly. “We’ve already selected the best candidates. With all positions filled, there’s no need to continue the interviews.” “Oh, really?” Isabella’s voice was sharp and unyielding. “Are you telling me that a prestigious company like Knight Entertainment doesn’t follow proper procedures? That a mere secretary can manipulate the process for personal gain? Does your boss know about this?” “You...” Thalia’s face turned red with anger, but before she could argue further, the main interviewer intervened. He addressed Isabella. “I haven’t received your resume. It might have been misplaced. I’ll go check.” He turned back to the o

    Thalia snorted coldly and produced a document endorsed by the head of the HR Department. "See this? The list of recruited personnel for this interview has already been finalized by our HR Department's Director Thorne. The document has been enacted and cannot be changed." The chief interviewer looked at the list, his face darkening. "Elara Hawke..." He glanced at the overweight woman standing outside the door, peering inside. She was Elara Hawke. During her interview, this woman had shown no sense of method, a complete novice to the performing arts. She had no acting skills whatsoever. He remembered giving her the lowest score; how could someone like her possibly appear on the list of recruits? Pointing at the overweight woman, The chief interviewer retorted, "How could someone with such a low score be hired? Has your HR Department made a mistake?" Thalia swiftly put away the document, unabashedly asserting, "How our HR Department operates is none of your concern. In any case, th

    Thalia's heart nearly stopped beating. Since becoming the secretary of the HR Department at the branch, she had abused her power and acted tyrannically, relying on her unusually close relationship with Director Thorne to do as she pleased in the department.For a massive commercial empire like the Knights, a small film and television branch like this was insignificant.She had only seen Lysander's face through video conferences before and never imagined he would personally appear at such an inconspicuous branch.Ignoring the department heads behind him, Lysander walked and asked, "Have the results of today's interviews come out so quickly? I've already received an email from the executives."Director Thorne walked stiffly, almost jogging, following behind, nodding and bowing, "It's just about the temporary actors for recruitment, how dare I trouble Vice President. This matter has already been handled properly by the subordinates."Lysander didn't look at him, continuing, "Hmm, show me

    Lysander walked up to Director Thorne with a cold, stern voice, "You are to resign immediately from the branch. Tomorrow, go to the accounting department to settle your salary."Director Thorne collapsed like a deflated balloon, His hundreds of thousands of dollars in annual salary, obtained through extensive connections and hefty expenses, now turned to nothing.He suddenly grabbed Lysander, crying as if mourning the dead, "Vice President, you can't do this. I've devoted half my life to Knight Entertainment, with no small effort. You can't nullify all my contributions to the company just for such an insignificant temporary extra role."Seeing this, Lysander's assistant quickly signaled for the bodyguards behind him to pull Director Thorne away.Lysander looked coldly at the despairing Director Thorne and said icily, "Under your management, the entire branch of Knight Entertainment has become chaotic and declining, on the brink of closure. Your efforts, indeed, have been considerable.

    Cecilia was right; if that watch was truly worth over eight million, then Masha could face some serious legal trouble due to the false accusations.However, Isabella immediately saw that the so-called South African pink diamond watch in Cecilia’s hand was not real.“Masha did not steal your watch,” Isabella said, looking directly into Cecilia's eyes as if she were watching a clown’s performance, remaining calm and composed while enjoying the spectacle.Cecilia was infuriated by her attitude.“Of course, you can be so nonchalant since it doesn’t involve you. Helping Masha just means you’re both trying to talk your way out of this. If we called the police right now, Masha would be eating prison food tonight!” Karrie, standing beside Cecilia, echoed her disdain for Isabella’s demeanor.“Are you both completely clueless about the law? This watch is perfectly intact in your

    “People like her are just so hard to guard against.” Although the tricks that Cecilia and Karrie had just pulled off were insignificant and easily resolved, Isabella understood that both of them had a lot of malice brewing inside.She had scammed Cecilia out of five hundred, and Cecilia would definitely find a way to get revenge.With that in mind, Isabella warned Masha, “Be careful over the next few days. Try to avoid them and don’t get into any conflicts.”“Sure! If I can’t provoke them, I can at least avoid them. They won’t be able to cause me any trouble,” Masha replied eagerly.However, the next day, she still fell victim to Cecilia and the others’ schemes.While Isabella was training, she noticed a crowd gathered around, making a ruckus. As she approached, she discovered it was Cecilia and Karrie bullying someone again.“Here’s the evidence—

    Cecilia, still trying to salvage the situation, stubbornly shouted, "Karrie really did get kicked into a heart attack! The emergency doctor said her condition was dangerous...""The doctor? He’s gone!" someone in the crowd shouted.Everyone looked over and saw that the supposed emergency doctor had already grabbed his medical kit and run off, taking the stretcher bearers with him.Cecilia was speechless now. The doctor she had arranged in advance had sensed the looming disaster and bolted.Masha, seething with rage, pointed at Cecilia and Karrie, shouting, "You two heartless liars! You staged this whole scene at the company to frame me and ruin my reputation! You’re despicable!"The crowd erupted in an uproar, realizing they had witnessed just how shameless people could be."It seems like Karrie never actually fainted, and she certainly doesn’t ha

    The doctor put on a melancholic expression, nodding gravely. "Even if we manage to save her this time, she'll still need heart surgery. If things get worse, she may even need a heart transplant."Upon hearing this, Cecilia broke down in sobs, her tears streaming uncontrollably. "Karrie, it's all Masha's fault."She looked up and angrily confronted Masha, saying, "You deliberately hurt Karrie, kicking her so hard she's now seriously injured. You're about to be arrested, and you’re responsible for all the medical bills, including the cost of the heart transplant."The crowd gasped—those medical bills were astronomical.At this point, someone suggested notifying Karrie’s parents, but Cecilia stepped in and stopped them. "I’ve already told Uncle and Auntie, no need to call again. Anyway, Masha won’t get away."Masha turned pale with fear. Jail? Paying for a heart transplant

    “Just be more mindful. Don’t confront them directly; you need to be wary of those two. They’re up to no good,” Isabella reminded Masha as she watched Cecilia and Karrie walk away.“Isabella, you’re amazing! You spotted their scheme right away. I really envy you,” Masha exclaimed.Isabella shook her head and sighed. “This is all forced out of me by a difficult life situation. When you encounter danger often, you naturally become cautious. There’s nothing to envy about it.”As they chatted, they headed toward the training room.In the afternoon, they had a training session focused on flexibility exercises.Isabella and Masha paired up to practice basic movements on the parallel bars.Karrie moved over from the gymnastics area.Karrie looked up at the two practicing balance and flashed a mask-like smile. “Excuse me, ladies; I’d

    The next morning at the Training Camp swimming department, trainees arrived one after another.The sound of splashing water could be heard in the pool.Everyone wondered who was training so early when they spotted Isabella swimming gracefully in the water.Her curves were elegant, and her long, fair legs splashed through the water. Her shiny hair resembled blooming flowers in the water.With fluid movements, she was like an envious mermaid, playing freely in the water.The trainees couldn’t help but be mesmerized, especially a few boys who stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with amazement.This made Cecilia and Karrie feel dissatisfied.Overwhelmed by jealousy, Cecilia rolled her eyes hard. Standing by the pool’s edge, she coldly snorted. “Showing off so early, as if everyone doesn’t know she just learned to swim. How emba

    Lucius stared at the girl in front of him, unable to respond for a long time.Caleb and Lysander, standing nearby, both wore expressions of disbelief, at a loss for words.Isabella felt a bit awkward under everyone's gaze. She nodded at Caleb, the delivery guy, and forced a smile, saying, “What a coincidence! Caleb, you’re delivering packages this late?”Turning her head, she noticed that Lysander was also present, and was taken aback. She quickly greeted him, “Vice President, you’re here to watch the competition too? It’s quite late; you’re really enthusiastic.”She glanced at the helicopters circling overhead and the bright searchlights and asked in confusion, “Is there some big performance going on tonight? It’s so lively.”After speaking, she glared at Lucius, asking angrily, “I waited at home for a long time and came to see what you were up to. I can’t believe you

    Lucius turned around and saw Caleb rushing over.“Caleb, do you have any news about Isabella?” He quickly approached Caleb.Caleb shook his head and said, “I’ve already sent people to search the entire beach, but we haven’t found her.”Lucius was momentarily stunned, staring blankly at the vast ocean.Could it be true, as they said, that Isabella had taken the kayak out to sea?Suddenly, Lucius felt a tightness in his scalp, and his heart skipped a beat, feeling disordered and chaotic. He grabbed Caleb by the collar, his face filled with urgency and even frustration. “Check everywhere—on the beach and in the sea! Don’t leave anything out!”Just then, someone came up to report to Caleb. “President, we just received news that a tourist's kayak has sunk in the sea. We’ve found a leaking kayak.”“A kayak?” Lucius’ eyes widened i

    Fresh air instantly filled Isabella’s lungs, overwhelming her with a euphoric sense of rebirth. She was so exhilarated that as soon as she relaxed, she sank like a heavy weight back into the sea.Panic-stricken, Isabella quickly held her breath, managing to stop her descent.Gradually, she began to grasp some techniques. Holding her breath, she paddled forward in the water, surprisingly gliding a significant distance ahead.When she could no longer hold her breath, she surfaced desperately, gasping for fresh air before floating back on the water, swimming toward the shore.At that moment, a piece of driftwood was pushed by the waves and brushed past her. She quickly reached out and grabbed it, finally able to lie on the wood and catch her breath.Thus, she drifted along, holding onto the wood as the waves propelled her toward the coast.
