He reached out and grasped her wrist, gently pressing her against the stairs below!

“You didn’t receive my gift?”

The masculine scent of his hormones lingered in the air, sweeping over her like a huge wave. Harmonia subconsciously held her breath and nodded, “I transferred ten thousand dollars to you, so it’s equivalent to me purchasing an eight-piece set of equipment to protect myself against predators.”

She squinted her beautiful eyes and smiled sweetly.

“So, I didn’t receive your gift, Mr. Martinez.”

He furrowed his brows, “I should have blocked you so you can't transfer money to me.”

“Why don’t you try it, Mr. Martinez?”

“I don’t dare to try it. I’m afraid that the losses would outweigh the gains.”

His aura of nobility coupled with his irresistibly deep voice was truly unfair! If his venture capital really failed, he could consider developing a side business and transitioning to the entertainment industry. He would definitely dominate the entertainment industry!

    No wonder Mrs. Lovell was so attentive. It turned out she had added something to the lobster scrambled eggs. There were six generations of doctors in her family, and her grandfather was a renowned doctor.As a descendant, and the only one at that, she grew up amidst medicinal herbs since she was young. If she couldn't detect this scent, it would be a great form of disrespect to her ancestors!Absalom valued privacy, so there were no surveillance cameras in Terran Mansion.Harmonia took advantage of the opportunity when no one was around to enter the kitchen with the plate in her hand, then put the entire lobster in a plastic bag and slipped it into her coat pocket. The rest of the food was mostly poured down the drain and disposed of cleanly with the kitchen waste disposer. She then placed the plate back on the dining table again, wiped her mouth with a few napkins, and pretended to have just finished breakfast as she got up to leave. Just when she reached the living room-“M

    ‘Super dedicated! Luna Woods practiced dancing for over fifteen hours despite her injuries!’‘The beautiful goddess, Luna, participated in the challenging talent show and was covered in injuries! She remained steadily in the top three because of her outstanding abilities!’Harmonia casually clicked on one of the headlines and scrolled through the attached images.Today's broadcast of Debut 303 was the final performance stage, and next week would be the total finale of the group formation night!In this episode of the program, they filmed Luna tirelessly practicing day and night alone until she collapsed in the dance studio.In the video, she was seen getting up from the floor, wiping tears from her eyes, and rolling up her sleeves and pant legs before checking her arms and thighs. Her elbows, forearms, knees, and shins were full of abrasions and bruises which was truly shocking.However, she gently blew on the wounds the next moment, then breathed heavily a few times as if the pa

    Absalom reprimanded her as soon as he spoke up. Although his tone was much gentler compared to before, the underlying complaints hadn't diminished one bit.Did he think she canceled Luna’s clothing endorsement because she was jealous? Harmonia couldn't help but want to laugh. He was too confident.“Have you seen the brand statement? It's already been made very clear.”“Are you sure you’re not taking it out on the innocent just because you're upset with me?” Absalom’s tone was unusually serious.The innocent? He thought that Luna was innocent?! Harmonia wanted to laugh even more upon hearing this.“If that's what you think, then I can't do anything about it.” One had to act like a scumbag when dealing with one. There was silence on the phone for a long time, indicating that Absalom was evidently adjusting his emotions. After a while, he spoke again, “Monia, I hurt you before, so I won't blame you for tampering with the paternity test to deceive me. However, none of this has anyth

    The powerful aura was hard to ignore, so Harmonia subconsciously looked beside her.She then saw a man wearing a simple black hoodie, a black Prada bucket hat, a pair of black sunglasses, and a black mask. Apart from his prominent nose, nothing else could be made out. This disguise simply could not be compared to hers. Clothes could be changed, and hats, sunglasses, and masks could conceal one's appearance. However, the inherent aura and the refreshing atmosphere emanating from him could never be changed. He recognized Harmonia.Harmonia didn't speak or make any movements. She watched Luna, who was on stage, dancing according to the rhythm of the music, and she couldn't help but want to laugh.At that moment, the hand she had placed on her knee was grasped by a warm palm. She looked down and saw the string of redwood beads on his wrist.Harmonia reached out her other hand and tapped the bracelet on his wrist lightly.“Mr. Martinez, shouldn’t you be more careful?”He tilted hi

    Absalom was here!Luna collapsed heavily on the stage, almost as if she had just seen her savior, even though she was just dancing moments before. She truly fainted in a timely manner! No wonder she was a renowned pretentious bitch in Nilus City. Her timing was spot on.When Harmonia saw Absalom, she immediately withdrew her hand, only to be firmly held by Dimas.“Dimas Martinez!” Harmonia called out his name and last name softly.“What's wrong?” He replied as if nothing had happened.“Let go.”“Call me Dimi.”Harmonia was both angry and anxious as she blurted out, “Dimi.”He kept his word and let go of her hand, then specifically asked, “Should I leave from the back door?”Harmonia nodded. Dimas was truly self-aware. However, the next moment, he said, “Why don’t you call me Dimi another time first?” “Dimas Martinez!”She wanted to hit him!“I’ll leave now.”When he got up with a smile, he didn't forget to hook his little finger with hers. It was a small gesture that almo

    Alessia’s voice sounded, “Aunt Helen, Aunt Hanna, Aunt Hera, has Trashy-Ab gone to the viewing platform?”“Yes, he just went.”“Okay, you can all take good care of Luna now! Didn't she like fainting? Give her a few more needles!” “Don't worry, I brought thirty-eight needles specifically for this obnoxious woman!”“Aunt Helen, Aunt Hanna, Aunt Hera, you can rest assured. Harmonia said that your hard work won't go unrewarded,” Alessia stifled a laugh.“Okay. Just tell Miss Marsh that we will take care of this!” After hanging up the phone, Aunt Helen, Aunt Hanna, and Aunt Hera rushed into the infirmary. Their years of practice in acupuncture, once fully utilized, were comparable to those of a skilled acupuncturist.Three minutes later, screams rang out!Meanwhile, on the viewing platform, Harmonia had received a phone call from the private investigator, Ren, about five minutes ago. The results of the examination on the lobster sent to T9T Research Institute were out. The lob

    Harmonia noticed the change in his expression. He remained silent and did not speak for a long time. The atmosphere around them seemed to freeze at this moment, with only the sound of the sea breeze echoing in their ears...After still not getting a response from Absalom, Harmonia knew her prediction was correct. He wouldn't agree to it. After what felt like a long time, he finally spoke up and said, “Her mental resilience is fragile. It’s not the best time for us to get engaged now, but I will definitely fulfill what I owe you. It just takes time.”He looked down at her with eyes filled with love and tenderness. Coupled with his gentle tone, it carried an inexplicable irony.Harmonia smiled faintly. Her prediction was completely accurate. However, getting engaged or remarried to him would both be detrimental. Even if he had agreed just now, she would have found a way to decline. After all, she wouldn't do something foolish like that.When Absalom saw that Harmonia didn't mention t

    When she finally focused her gaze, all she saw was the crescent moon. She thought the beam of silver light from earlier must have been the moon's radiance. After that, Absalom accompanied Harmonia into the building. Both of them were investors of Debut 303, so the production team naturally treated them well. The director had already arranged rooms for them, but Absalom’s room was on the tenth floor, whereas Harmonia’s room was on the sixteenth floor. They bid each other goodnight and went to their respective rooms.-The next day, it was the night of the finale of Debut 303. The theme was ‘Fighting for Your Dreams, From the Bottom’, which had already captured the headlines of major news outlets! Tonight's grand finale would be broadcasted live on Sweet Potato. The mentors, guests, and eight major investors took their places one after another. As the countdown began, the finale commenced!

    Quinn was startled. “W-what?”“I wasn't locked up here because I ruined your father's business and he is seeking revenge on me.”“Why are you locked up here, then?”Absalom frowned and replied, “It's complicated. It's not something that can be explained in a short time, but if I'm rescued, it means that there will be one more piece of evidence against your father.”Quinn bit her lower lip. She understood.If he were rescued, her father's actions of injuring him and imprisoning him would no longer be a secret.“You're his daughter, and once he falls, you might not be safe either.”Quinn hadn't thought about it deeply before, but now, Absalom's words weighed heavily on her heart.Even though her father had never cared about her and was always distant and cold toward her, and even though her sister bullied her since childhood, every word and action showing contempt toward her, they were her family, and that was something she couldn't change.Moonlight shone into the cellar throug

    Absalom froze in place while holding the snacks at the sound of those words. “She… She answered the call?” His heart felt a sharp pain that hurt a million times more than the wounds on his body.That one word ‘aunt’ was something he didn't want to hear but couldn't deny. They were together, weren't they?Quinn continued to disinfect his wounds, not noticing his expression as she went on and said, “Yes. I've already told her about you. Don't worry, they'll definitely come to rescue you!”“I'm familiar with the paths at home. If conditions permit, I'll guide you when the time comes.”He snapped back to reality, rejecting her without a second thought. “No need. You've done enough for me already by saving my life.”Quinn looked at him and said, “No. I have to see you alive and rescued before I can feel at ease.”“Why?” He asked.She was puzzled. “What do you mean why?”“No one cares about my life,” His eyes dimmed with sorrow.He even wondered if it would have been better if he

    Castell looked at her. His gaze was devoid of warmth but rather, it was as indifferent as cold water.“Tomorrow is your sister's assessment day, and I've been invited to Snow Manor.”Quinn nodded softly and asked obediently, “Is Nara confident that she will win?”Upon hearing this, Castell snorted with great dissatisfaction, “There's no such thing as losing among the Kenwoods! She will definitely be the winner!”Quinn shrank back in fear when she saw the ferocity in his eyes, and she did not dare to say another word. She simply nodded, forced a smile, and said, “In that case, I’ll stay at home and wait for Dad and Nara to come back victorious.”Only then did Castell nod begrudgingly.“Okay, go to sleep now.”Quinn waved to him and then turned to leave.The helicopter slowly ascended, gradually disappearing into the night.After Castell left, Quinn entered the room under Mrs. Clint's watchful eyes.After about an hour, Mrs. Clint entered the bedroom, made sure Quinn was asleep

    Madam Judd's tone was gentle yet firm.Nara was stunned.“That’s impossible! How could I get it wrong?! You must have made a mistake!”She gritted her teeth at the last sentence.Madam Judd chuckled and said, “All three of these are fake.”Nara had an incredulous expression as she shone the flashlight on them again.“The jade has been soaked in strong acid, impurities washed away, then injected with glue. The methods of counterfeiting are becoming more sophisticated, reaching a point where it's hard to tell real from fake. To discern the authenticity of jade, one needs keen eyesight and extensive experience to make judgments. Just because you've seen more and possess more jade doesn't mean you understand more. Do you understand now?”The proud Nara was embarrassed by Madam Judd and couldn't find a way to save herself from embarrassment for a moment. “Understood,” Harmonia nodded.Nara had to reluctantly say, “Understood.”Madam Judd then immediately began the lesson.Though

    She had an uncontrollable nosebleed as blood kept dripping from her nose. She hurriedly bent over, and the drops of blood fell into the sink. Despite the flow of water, it was still extremely alarming.Harmonia did not know what was wrong with her, but after about a minute, she managed to stop the bleeding. She frowned, suspecting that it might be due to heatiness. With about fifteen minutes until nine o'clock, she quickly changed her clothes and hurried toward the appraisal room.Even before the training began, Jenell had already made arrangements for preparations at Snow Manor in advance. The tools in the appraisal room were already prepared.Harmonia and Nara arrived successively.At nine o'clock, Jenell appeared.However, the person who appeared with Jenell shocked Harmonia! It was actually her!Jenell introduced, “This is the jade appraisal expert, Madam Judd.”Harmonia and Nara greeted her. “Madam Judd.”Madam Judd nodded, pretending not to recognize Harmonia.“Let

    Both Jasper and Nancy were dumbfounded. Dimas simply stood there with a strong, calm, and intimidating aura, which made people tremble with fear even without him losing his temper. Jasper and Nancy obediently admitted their mistakes. One was in his early twenties, and the other was about to become an adult, but here they were, behaving like kindergarten kids, loudly promising to be model siblings in the future.Harris laughed heartily, his face showing an expression of ‘even these two rascals have their days’.Coincidentally, Mac walked out.“What’s going on?”Harris immediately explained, “The siblings were quarreling, but their father isn't here right now, so the elder brother stepped in as a father figure to educate them properly!”Mac burst into laughter, “I don’t want to say too much, but you should quarrel less with Nancy. She's not in good health, so you should be more considerate toward her.”After Jasper calmed down, he also realized his mistake deeply. He was born w

    “Two people, two favors.” Two was two and could not be less. Harris failed to play dumb. “You’re really good at calculating!”However, he had no other choice. After all, he could not handle these two people on his own! His head would ache whenever they argued. “Okay, two favors it is, then!” Harris agreed. Dealing with those troublemakers really gave him a headache.“Tell me, what two things do you want me to do for you, then?” Dimas said calmly, “I’ll leave Monia’s safety in your hands in ten days.”Harris was taken aback. “Huh? Isn't that girl at Snow Manor? With your mother there, her safety should be absolutely guaranteed.”“I’m still worried.”“Why don't you take care of her safety yourself, then?”As he spoke, Harris counted his fingers. He suddenly came to a realization.“In ten days? Wouldn’t that be the day when Harmonia and Nara will be taking their assessment together?”Dimas nodded.“You're leaving the base?” Harris understood and asked.“Yes.”“Where are you

    ‘You’re really killing me.’Harmonia whispered goodnight to him again, then stuffed her cell phone under the pillow as she prepared to have a good sleep.Dimas, who was at the base, also put down his cell phone at the moment. He looked at the simple layout diagram carved on the bottom of the box and turned on his laptop immediately to reconstruct it. At the same time, he called Mac to investigate Castell's second daughter.At first, Mac thought Dimas was joking. Everyone knew Castell only had one daughter, Nara. How could there suddenly be another daughter? Dimas then told Mac about the content of the phone call Monia had received. Mac immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. Before confirming whether Absalom was really in the wine cellar in Kenwood Mansion, he needed to confirm whether Castell really had a second daughter.After hanging up the phone, he acted quickly. Since she was a living person, there was no way she could not be traced.Mac's efficiency was

    The air seemed to freeze at this moment.The phone clearly displayed the ‘call in progress’ message, but it was as if it was affected by signal interference, and nothing could be heard until his cold voice broke the icy silence.“I will.”Harmonia heaved a sigh of relief, feeling worried as she said, “But rescuing someone from Kenwood Mansion won't be easy, right? That place is definitely a dangerous spot. How do you plan on rescuing him? Furthermore, we can't guarantee that this isn't a scheme orchestrated by Castell.”Having finally received news of Absalom, of course, it couldn't be given up on, but the authenticity of the news also needed to be confirmed.Dimas simply smiled without answering Harmonia's question but instead changed the topic and asked, “Monia, what did you have for dinner tonight?”Just as Harmonia was about to answer, a knock sounded at the door. Her heart jumped, and she acted swiftly and quickly tucked the phone under the blanket.She then pretended to be
