Alanna was at a loss for words. Renee and her big mouth!Immediately, she walked around Hades' car. "I can't afford to hire you as a driver, Mr. Florentine."Hades quickly got out of the car and grabbed her. "I'll do it for free."Alanna glared at him. "Do you have too much time on your hands, Hades?"Hades hummed in agreement. He'd have the time for this as long as he tried hard enough. At worst, he'd lose a few hours of sleep.Alanna shot him another glare. She knew how busy things were at Brilliance Group. "I really don't need you to be my driver. Besides, it's inappropriate."Hades was the head of the Florentine family. She didn't want others to talk behind her back just because she got him to be her driver.Hades was prepared to be rejected. "I'll be your driver for the night. Then I'll arrange for someone else to do it, okay? Don't hire someone you're unfamiliar with. You won't know whether or not you can trust them."Alanna pressed her lips together. "I'll look into thei

Edmund specifically found a fortune teller to decide on the best day to hold the opening ceremony. It had been decided that the ceremony would take place at the beginning of the upcoming month.As the company's person in charge, Alanna had to make the call for various matters.She and Hudson kept talking about it in low voices while Hades sat beside them with his arms crossed. He looked grumpy.When they were about to finish eating, he suddenly asked, "Is Northlight after the plot of land in the northern suburbs?"Alanna paused. Indeed, Northlight Group wanted that piece of land, but the Quigley family owned it.Because of that incident with Blake, she had a disagreement with them. That was why she couldn't even talk to them now.Hades arched an eyebrow at her. "Ally, I can help you arrange for a meeting with the Quigleys."Alanna looked at him. Moments later, she asked, "On what condition this time, Mr. Florentine?"Hades' eyes flickered. "You'll only have to help me dress my

Alanna paused. Then, she answered, "I can't, Hades. I just can't bring myself to tell my mom about us."Hades stared at her silently for several moments. "So you decided to cancel me from your life?"Alanna replied, "It's safer not to mention you. Drive safely on your way back."After saying that, she returned to the ward with her phone. However, Hades unexpectedly came in after her.She turned and shot him a glare. Whispering, she asked, "What are you doing, Hades Florentine?"Hades ignored her and went straight to Tara's bed. "Nice to meet you, Ms. Thornton. I'm Alanna's… friend."Standing beside them, Jane exclaimed, "Ms. Thornton, I guess you haven't heard. This is Mr. Florentine, Ally's admirer. He's very enthusiastic in his efforts to court Ally."Tara turned to look at Alanna, who lowered her gaze. Alanna said, "Mom, I'm not interested in him."Hades chuckled. "You're not interested in me now, but that may change in the future. Do you agree, Ms. Thornton?"Tara stared b

Hudson demanded, "You're not planning to get back together with Hades, are you?"Alanna shoved his hand aside, "What nonsense are you talking about?""I'm talking nonsense? More like you're playing dumb."Alanna paused before saying, "Hudson, I told you before that you and I can only be friends."Hudson laughed. "So what? Will that change the fact that Hades is a scumbag? Alanna, think about how he treated you. Don't fall for it just because he's being nice for a second."Alanna stepped around him. "I'm thinking straight!""And that'll be for the best." Hudson ended the conversation with that and handed her a cup of coffee.Alanna glanced at him and took it. "Thanks."Hudson said nothing and returned to his office.As Alanna watched him leave, she sighed. After the ruckus Hudson caused, she suddenly remembered her promise to help Hades dress his wound.She originally thought Hades would take the initiative and approach her. However, she didn't receive any calls from him even

Hades was in his office. He was listening to the newly hired marketing manager present their proposal for the upcoming summer.Halfway through, he raised a hand to signal the manager to stop. After checking his phone, Hades smiled."Shall we have dinner together? You can help me change the dressing then."Alanna read Hades' message in silence. Indeed, she couldn't reject him now. After taking a deep breath, she replied: "Okay."Hades' lips curled into a smile, and the marketing manager watched him, terrified.Had anyone seen Hades smile like that? To think that that iceberg of a man could actually do that!Hades put his phone away and looked up at the marketing manager. "Redo your proposal. Have you studied the market trends for this summer? Have you conducted market research?"If you don't know how to go about it, you should refer to those the previous manager has done."The marketing manager snapped back to his senses. He fearfully agreed and left the office with the proposal

With that, Hades drove off. Alanna stood rooted to the spot, dazed. She only returned to her senses a long while later.As she held the bouquet, she made her way back to the apartment absent-mindedly.Chelsey was stunned to see the bouquet she held. "This is… from Hades?"Alanna's eyelashes fluttered at her question. She remained silent and walked straight into the bedroom.That night, she stayed awake for a long time. The sweet scent of lisianthus seemed to fill every corner of the room.The next day, Alanna reached the golf course very early where she was supposed to meet Paul.The Quigleys were involved in businesses that were borderline lawful. In contrast, Paul appeared to be someone reserved. In his 40s, he exuded the boldness and sensibility expected of his age.Alanna was slightly surprised when she met him.Likewise, Paul was awed when he saw her, too. "You're much prettier in person, Ms. Jacinto."They had never met, but because of the incident with Blake, Paul had l

It was almost noon when Alanna and Paul finished a round of golf. Paul invited Alanna for lunch.He remained a gentleman throughout the meal. He did not force her to drink nor did he drink too much himself. He was thoroughly courteous, and both enjoyed the meal.When they finished their meal, Paul asked, "Have you made up your mind about that plot of land?"Alanna's mind was in a jumble. After a brief pause, she replied, "Mr. Quigley, this is not a decision I can make alone. Maybe we can talk about this again sometime later?"Smiling, Paul responded, "Sure. I look forward to hearing from you."Alanna nodded.After leaving the restaurant, Alanna hopped into her car. She was still in a daze.Before this, she didn't ask about the details regarding the incident with Blake. At that time, the relationship between her and Hades was already tense. He never told her about what he'd done.In fact, she had heard from Yves that Hades had tortured the hell out of Blake. Alanna couldn't de

Alanna fell silent for a moment. Then, she replied, "I'll go over after work."She heard Hades' deep chuckle through the receiver. He said, "Alright. I'll pick you up.""There's no need. I'll go there on my own." With that, Alanna hung up on him right away.Hades looked at the phone in his hand and smiled in resignation.He remained quiet for a while as he glanced at Margaret, who was preparing bone broth for his hangover in the kitchen."You don't have to make the bone broth anymore, but please get some ingredients from the supermarket."Margaret was puzzled. Looking at him, she asked, "Mr. Florentine, we're well-stocked on ingredients."Hades got up and went to the restroom. As he did so, he instructed languidly, "After getting the ingredients, you're done for today."Margeret paused. She understood what he meant now. After packing her belongings, she headed out.Suddenly, Hades called out to her and asked, "Do you know what Ms. Jacinto's favorite foods are? Aside from desse

He casually picked it up and glanced at it, his eyes filled with displeasure. "Who is this pretty boy?"Alanna looked at the snow outside."Can't you tell? A handsome guy."Hades frowned. "Is he more handsome than me?"Alanna couldn't be bothered to answer him.Hades lowered his eyes and held her waist. "Ms. Jacinto, are you feeling needy?"Alanna furrowed her brows. "Hades, can you be serious?"But Hades shamelessly replied, "If you have any needs, just give me a call. I'll be at your service anytime and anywhere."Alanna glared at him. "Hades, have some dignity."Hades chuckled. "Ms. Jacinto, are you doubting my abilities?"Alanna kicked his leg without hesitation.Hades laughed. "Feeling better now?"Alanna paused before nodding slightly. "Thank you.""Silly girl. Why are you thanking me?" Alanna smiled and got back to her work. She glanced at the man on the other side, who was busy replying to emails on his phone."If you're busy, you don't have to come over here on

Alanna was surprised. She then looked up at the man before her.She had a guarded expression.The man chuckled and handed her another business card. "I'm Mason Lowe and a classmate of Grayson's. I've heard a bit about you from him. I happened to have a business meeting recently that required translation. Would you be interested in taking up the job?"Alanna remained wary."Mr. Lowe, since you're Grayson's classmate, it would be more convenient to talk to him. I have something to attend to today, so I'll take my leave."With that, she pulled Chelsey and headed out. After their figures disappeared, Mason chuckled."She's quite guarded."He muttered to himself before lighting a cigarette. Just then, his phone rang. A woman's voice came from the other end."Didn't I ask you to approach Alanna? Why haven't you made any progress after such a long time?"Mason took a drag of his cigarette."Do you think it's easy to get close to Alanna? She's always surrounded by bodyguards. I o

Chelsey didn't know how to comfort Alanna."Ally, you need to move on."Alanna nodded without saying much. There was nothing else she could do.While the doctor examined Chelsey's wound and prescribed her medication, a commotion arose outside.Michel and the dog's owner had followed them to the clinic."Chelsey!"As soon as Michel entered the clinic, he called out.Chelsey gave him a sidelong glance. "What are you doing here?"Michel chuckled. "I came to check on you after hearing you got bitten."Chelsey scoffed. "What for? I got bitten by a dog, not you."Michel clicked his tongue. "Even if we were to bite each other, you would be the one who bit me."Chelsey aimed a kick at him. But before she could reach him, someone shouted, "Michel!"Chelsey immediately retracted her foot and glared at Michel. "Get out of the way. Stop being an eyesore."Michel chuckled. "Chelsey, are you reluctant to kick me?"Without hesitation, Chelsey aimed another kick at him. This time, she hi

Justin entered the room just in time to hear Alanna's questionHe paused briefly before taking a deep breath and walking up to her."Ms. Jacinto."Alanna turned around and saw Justin coming in with a stack of forms.Her lips twitched. But before she could speak, Justin beat her to it."Ms. Jacinto, what brings you here?" His demeanor was natural, showing no signs of evasion.Alanna pursed her lips and smiled slightly. "I'm here accompanying Chelsey for her shot."With that, she glanced back at the little girl."Is this your daughter?"Justin nodded, his eyes filled with affection as he looked at the girl."Yes, she's my daughter."Alanna's fingers twitched. "May I hold her?"Almost instinctively, the nanny holding the girl took a step back.Alanna's hands froze. She said, "Sorry."Justin's brow furrowed instantly.He glanced at the nanny before explaining softly to Alanna."Aashika was born prematurely and has a very weak immune system. We always disinfect before holdin

After leaving the detention center, Alanna seemed lost in thought.Although Tucker hadn't revealed much, she couldn't shake off her suspicions about Edmund."Do you think it could be Edmund?" Hades remained silent."The key question now is, if it's Edmund, why would he harm your mother?"Alanna lowered her gaze.Hades was right. She wondered why.Since learning that Tara was being targeted, she had thought of countless possibilities. Who could be behind the threats, and why would anyone want to harm such a fragile woman?But she still had no answers.Hades felt a pang of heartache."We'll find out eventually. Don't worry, if it's him, he'll show his true colors sooner or later."Alanna looked out the window and responded in a hum.Hades looked at her and gently caressed her cheek."Ally, don't feel sad. It hurts me."Alanna brushed his hand away. "Stop touching me all the time."Hades' mouth twitched."I've already asked Margaret to make preparations for the New Year.

Alanna glanced at him and brushed off his hand.Hades' eyes twinkled with amusement."Is it okay to spend the New Year's Eve together?"Alanna turned her head and looked at the calendar hanging on the wall.It was already mid-December.The New Year was approaching.Their baby was already three months old.If nothing had gone wrong, their New Year's Eve would have been filled with joy.Alanna withdrew her gaze, lowered her head, and straightened her clothes.Hades saw the glimmer of moisture in her eyes when she lowered her head.His heart ached, and he quickly hurried over to hug her."Everything will be fine."Alanna fought back her tears and nodded before pushing him away.Hades looked at her determined expression with a sense of helplessness."Let's go see Tucker. Maybe we can get some information about your mother."Alanna nodded and followed him out.After the two left, Chelsey rolled her eyes in the room."What a world! I have to see them being all lovey-dovey ri

In Northlight Group at Brunstein City, Edmund listened as his assistant reported everything to him."You mean, Olivia has been investigating Tara recently?"The assistant nodded. "Yes, and she's been very thorough."Edmund's pen snapped in his hand."Besides that, did she find out anything else?""She already found out about Tara's death."Edmund's face turned grim. "Got it."After speaking, he paused briefly. "Prepare something for me, and also, invite Mrs. Campbell to have lunch with me at the company."Olivia arrived at Northlight Group before noon.Before she could enter the office, she heard Edmund making a phone call."Mr. Florentine, I can help stabilize the stock price of Florentine Group with Northlight, but I hope you won't vent your anger on Alanna. Yes, she's important to me. You could say, even more important than Hudson."Olivia's steps abruptly halted. The smile on her face gradually disappeared.It wasn't until Edmund's secretary called out to her that Olivi

Alanna's grip on her phone tightened slightly."Hades, are you... really okay?"Hades chuckled. "I'm just trying to get some sympathy from you. Is it working?"Alanna pursed her lips and remained silent.Hades chuckled. "Go to bed early."After a pause, he added, "Also, try not to take sleeping pills.""Where are you?"Alanna suddenly asked.Hades was stunned.He glanced at the villa in the distance. "I'm taking a walk outside.""Taking a walk in the dead of winter?"Hades chuckled. "Ms. Jacinto, are you showing concern for me?"Alanna scoffed. "Go ahead and enjoy your walk."Hades quickly responded, "I'm outside handling some business. I just finished and suddenly missed you. So I wanted to call you."Alanna pursed her lips."Hades, we're partners now. From now on, don't hide anything from me."Hades' voice softened."Alright, I won't hide anything from you."Alanna didn't say much and hung up the phone directly.She silently looked at the sleeping pills on the beds

Afterward, he sneered, extinguished his cigarette, and drove away.Just as he left the residential area, a car suddenly came speeding towards him.Hades jerked the steering wheel.But the car behind him turned around and came back in his direction.Hades narrowed his eyes and stepped on the gas pedal, rushing forward.However, he didn't intend to shake off the car this time.Instead, he maintained a distance that allowed him to keep sight of the car. It was neither too close nor too far. He ensured that the car couldn't catch up with him and he wouldn't lose sight of it.The scenery outside became increasingly desolate.At some point, they were already on the outskirts.Surprisingly, Hades lit a cigarette at this moment.Then, he sent a location to Yves."Come handle the accident."Hades' car suddenly went uphill before rushing down a steep slope.The person in the car behind widened their eyes.Below the steep slope was a wall!They slammed on the brakes. But the speed
