“You forget one thing. You’re the Master of Being Scatterbrained,” Zeke reparteed, laughing without raising a single suspicion.

Mimi tugged at the corner of her lips, but seeing how Zeke looked at her—like she was the biggest damn apple in his eyes—opened a can of rueful melancholy within her. Guilt quickly rose to meet its contemporary, and together they became a brewing torrent within her chest.

Vanessa, who had been following Zeke in his search and had now returned to the private room, seem

    Elias flashed him a small smile. “Can’t help myself, Russo. Too many troubles on my plate. Nicotine calms me down a bit, and besides… It’s just what men do.”“It’s a health hazard, that’s what it is,” Zeke chided.Elias chuckled, self-deprecatingly. “Being depressed is worse.”Vanessa broke out a grin and quickly sidled up to him with her arms wrapped around Elias’ shoulders. “Hey now, El. You’ve got me now. I’ll gladly be by your side whenever you’re feeling the blues.”At the very least, h

    As the sun climbed an invisible slope up the sky, it sweated blinding golden rays to the world below. With fresh breakfast bagged in one hand, Damon hurtled toward the ward in a flight of hurried steps, but he was soon greeted by the sight of Jeanette, slumped forward to the side of her son’s bed, soundly asleep.Sunlight traced the outline of her small, petite frame and exposed a small but stark shadow cutting across the bedsheet. She almost looked like she was huddling to herself, and as her

    Damon’s jaw clenched. Rage erupted in his head.That was what had happened. So that was what had happened! F*cking Xavier and his scheme were at the center of it again!Damon had believed that what happened between himself and the secretary was because of booze, even if he was skeptical about that simplistic explanation. He had not been at all drunk out of his wits, so why had he hallucinated and seen Jeanette in the secretary? So why would his body feel feverish and bursting with libido?A

    Back in the ward, Jeanette was blinking her groggy eyes next to the bed as though she had just woken up, cracking a big yawn and rubbing her eyes like a bleary, languid cat.Damon smiled and dispelled any trace of grimness from his face while his features quickly softened. “Why don’t you take a longer nap? You overtaxed yourself last night,” he pointed out in a low, hushed tone.She shook her head. “I have to check Fe’s temperature.”“I bought breakfast. There’s waffles and sandwiches,” he sa

    He audibly inhaled. “I already found the evidence proving both me and my secretary’s innocence. You’ll know the truth soon enough.”Jeanette said nothing. She shut her eyes and tried hard to manage the war zone ravaging in her mind. It felt like a bundle of entangled brambles in here. Picking them apart would be a Sisyphean labor.Her thoughts drifted to the night that had gone by, to how insecure Felix had sounded in his delirious episode, and her heart ached. She had been toying with the que

    Vanessa was around 18 years old. Her features were still a little childish, but the aura she carried was strong.Mimi might have admired Vanessa’s edginess if she hadn’t been so aggressive against her during their first meeting. However, she really hated how she took shots at her without clarifying the situation.Mimi sat in front of Vanessa, looking sullen.“Why have you called me here?”She frowned. There was no one else here, and Mimi couldn’t be bothered to keep up her hypocritical facade.Mimi might have considered avoiding burning bridges if Vanessa hadn’t threatened her. However, she wasn’t in the mood to concern herself with these things. Vanessa never played by the rules. Regardless of how much she wanted to keep the peace, she would have no choice as long as Vanessa refused to let her off.Vanessa took a sip from her cup of coffee and cleared her throat. “Mimi, since I invited you, I’ll go straight to the point. Let’s not beat around the bush. I want you to stay away

    …In jail, Xavier stared at Jeanette’s face through a layer of glass. His expression was filled with hatred.Jeanette stared at him and took a deep breath. Then, she picked up the phone.“How’ve you been?”Xavier smirked. “Since my own brother has decided to send me to jail, why has he asked you to come all the way here? To insult me? You really are a match made in heaven.”Jeanette sighed. Actually, Xavier was a very smart man, on par with Damon. Besides, when she had first joined the Godf

    In the car, Mimi turned to look at Zeke, who was next to her. For a moment there, she had no idea what to say to him.They had pretty much silently admitted to the media’s claims over their engagement. Over the past few days, Zeke had been making preparations for their engagement party. She had been the one to suggest getting married, but now she was beginning to feel cold feet. She wasn’t sure if she was ready to spend the rest of her life with Zeke.Zeke seemed to be in a good mood. He had

    “Damon Godfrey! It was you, wasn’t it? How could you do this to me?” His expression was ruthless. His eyes were filled with a terrifying expression, unlike ever before. He looked like a wild animal that had been suppressing its urges for a very long time.Jeanette had never seen such a terrifying look on Xavier’s face before. She paused in fright as she stared at Xavier from afar.Damon seemed perfectly calm. “You brought this on yourself, Xavier. I know what you’ve done. It’s just that I neve

    “You’re overthinking it!” Elias slapped her hand away.Vanessa laughed bitterly. “Oh, I wish I was, Elias. But the facts prove that you’re in love with Mimi Norton. You’re in love with your best friend’s fiancee!”“That has nothing to do with you!” Elias was like a cat who had his tail trampled on. He was tense. He had grown increasingly annoyed now that the heart of the matter had been prodded at.“Nothing to do with me? Elias, do you really think that I was only in love with your position?

    Damon reached out and held her wrist. “You don’t believe me? Then come with me.”Jeanette smacked his hand away, looking very stern. “What are you planning? I’m not leaving with you.”Felix suddenly emerged from his room, holding a teddy bear, just as the pair were in the midst of conflict. He widened his large, limpid eyes and looked at Damon at the doorway. His expression filled with immense joy.“Daddy!” The little boy smiled and happily rushed to wrap his arms around Damon’s waist. “Daddy, are you here to take Mommy and me home?”Damon smiled and gazed at his clever son, a god-send, and spoke in a gentle voice. “Of course. Would you like to come home with Daddy?”“Yes!” The little boy’s voice was clear. Then, he carefully turned to Jeanette. “Mommy…”Jeanette frowned. Her heart was a mess. Felix missed his home. He was such a small child and had been forced to endure the conflict between her and Damon. He must have suffered. However, she couldn’t go home with Damon like this.

    Jeanette was standing in the kitchen, staring dazedly at the pot of burnt potatoes, looking exasperated.‘I’m such an idiot! I’ve actually managed to burn potatoes… by boiling them. This is completely unheard of! It’s all my fault for being so careless. I left the potatoes to boil and ran off to do something else. I was so busy that I completely forgot about them, until two minutes ago, when I smelled the burnt potatoes. Then I remembered that mine and Felix’s dinner was in that pot. All of the water had actually evaporated!’Jeanette felt a massive headache as she stared at the blackened potatoes stuck to the pot. This was the only food they had at home. Now that the potatoes were ruined, she had no other choice except to take Felix out for food.She scratched her head in exasperation. Felix appeared from behind her, hugging the teddy bear she had just bought for him, and walked into the kitchen. He lifted his chubby, naively little face and stared pitifully up at Jeanette.“Mommy

    In a restaurant, the surrounding atmosphere was illuminated by a gentle, dim light, which made it all feel warm and comfortable. Mimi stared at Zeke, who was seated in front of her. She looked hesitant and nervous. She released two soft coughs, unable to say the words she wanted to say.‘Get engaged…’These words felt very distant to her. She did believe that Zeke was the kind of man she could spend the rest of her life with, but to prepare herself for marriage with him in such a short period… She couldn’t bring herself to accept it. After all, she and Zeke had only been dating for a very short time. Unfortunately, Vanessa’s threat had rendered it impossible for her to avoid the subject. Upon careful consideration, it made sense. Since she was going to be with Zeke, why would the time of marriage make any difference?Perhaps it was time for her to truly accept this relationship and start a new life.She took a deep breath and looked at Zeke, who sat in front of her, then swallowe

    “Father, even if he is my brother, he should be responsible for his crimes. We live in a civilized society. Besides, he’s worked with an outsider in a plot against our company. You know this. The company wouldn’t have been reduced to this mess if it weren’t for him. Father, your constant shelter and indulgence has caused him to make so many mistakes! If you continue spoiling Xavier, he’ll resort to something even more terrifying in the future,” Damon said with a frown.Christophe smirked in his rage. “Damon, has your search for power driven you mad? How could you be so cruel to your own brother? It’s not like you’re unaware of why I’ve been so indulgent toward him. Xavier has never been of sound mind from a young age. Are you worried that I’d leave the Godfrey Group to him? That he would take everything that belongs to you?”Damon was taken aback. He chuckled bitterly and exasperatedly. “Father, do you really think that that’s what I think? Would you really be bold enough to leave th

    The car drove along the road. The driver, a woman, dressed in black wearing a baseball cap, slowly spoke. “What did you say to her?”Vanessa pursed her lips, looking particularly relaxed. “I told her to get engaged with Zeke within a week.”The sound of the car coming to a screeching halt filled the air. The car stopped in the middle of the road, just like that, forcing a row of cars behind them to stop as well. The driver widened her eyes. Her expression was full of rage. “I thought we agreed to expose her affair with Elias? It was a great opportunity for us to ruin her, and you just gave it up?”Vanessa shrugged, looking unperturbed. “Why would I want to ruin her?”“I thought you hated her? Don’t tell me you’re going soft!”The woman frowned. Her expression was filled with anger as if she resented her for not doing any better.She had been planning for so long, coming up with all sorts of schemes to find someone who hated Mimi just as much as she did.
