“What are you staring at? Help me pull him away!”
Seeing his assistant frozen in place, Vanessa called out, somewhat annoyed.
Luca's assistant finally stepped forward but only managed to support Luca, not daring to hurt him in the slightest.
Vanessa didn’t know if it was avoidance or fear; she desperately struggled to free herself from Luca's grip.
“Vanessa, don’t go, don’t go…”
Although Luca was drunk, he could still recognize Vanessa by instinct alone, or perhaps he didn't fully realize it, but his inner regret made him feel that this person was Vanessa.
“Luca, let go of me! If you don’t let go, I’ll call the police!”
Hearing the word ‘police,’ Luca became even more agitated, mumbling apologies and explanatio

“Daxton, please take care of him for a moment. I’m going to check on Isla.” With Daxton's help, Luca finally released her hand. “Go ahead. For now, I won’t kill him.” Daxton replied with a smile, leading Vanessa to believe he was joking and not to take it seriously. But that statement was Daxton's true feeling; he wouldn't kill Luca yet. However, if Luca continued to entangle himself with Vanessa and harm both her and her daughter, he wasn't sure he could restrain himself from swiftly dealing with him. A few hours later, Mariah called, saying she had landed and would be home soon. With Daxton's reminder, she had already prepared everything, creating an illusion that she had returned home before dark to prevent being followed by paparazzi or gossip reporters. Isla was sleeping soundly, though occasionally she would stir and react to the fright she had

In the morning, no matter what Luca did, he was cold-shouldered by Vanessa and her daughter. Isla, feeling wronged and angry, even refused to talk to him, turning her head away with a pout.Mariah was too tired to accept the breakfast invitation, leaving only the three of them at the breakfast table.“Isla, Mommy has arranged for you to take a day off from kindergarten. You can rest today and see if you still feel scared. If you don’t feel well, just tell Mommy, and I’ll take you to see a psychologist, okay?”Isla knew about psychologists; she had accompanied her mother many times and always thought they were a bit scary. Often, Vanessa would come out with red eyes, barely speaking, and wearing a forced smile throughout the day.Because of this, Isla felt resistant. She shook her head and said, “I don’t want to go to the psychologist. I want Mommy to stay with me. Mommy, don’t cry. Don’t be sad.”

“Isla, when do you want to go to the zoo? I’ll take you!” Luca, eager to keep the excitement alive, asked with a hopeful smile.But Isla, still just a child, wasn’t focused on the logistics. She simply worried that Luca might turn out like her mother—full of promises but always too busy with work, leaving her waiting indefinitely.She tugged on Vanessa’s hand and asked sweetly, “Mommy, will you come with Isla?”“Of course! Mommy will definitely go with you. Uncle Luca doesn’t know how to handle kids, so Mommy will be with you,” Vanessa replied warmly, her tone full of reassurance.Isla’s face lit up, and she jumped with excitement. “Then let’s go today!”That’s the thing about kids—they want to go the moment the idea pops into their head, without a second thought about schedules or planning.Luca smiled, ready to agree, but paused and glance

Because of Luca’s slip of the tongue, Isla, upset and frustrated, locked herself in her room. Refusing to listen to any explanations, she cried even harder, “Mommy and Uncle are both liars!”Hearing this, Vanessa felt a sharp pang of guilt. Isla was right—she and Luca had both deceived her, and their words had lost all credibility in the little girl’s eyes.Unsure how to make things right, Vanessa stood outside the door, thinking of a way to coax her daughter out.“Sweetheart, I promise! Since Uncle Luca isn’t here today, Mommy will take you to the zoo, okay? If you come out, we can leave right away.”For a moment, there was only silence. Then, a small, hesitant voice answered, “Really?”“Yes, really! Mommy guarantees it!”The door slowly cracked open, and the moment Isla spotted her mother standing there, she threw herself into Vanessa’s arms. Sobbing softly, she

With a ‘bang’, Daxton turned off the TV, tossing the remote onto the sofa. His gaze suddenly sharpened as he walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window to check the surroundings of the community, then dialed the phone number for the head of his company's legal department.“Did you see the news?”The head of the legal department, Mike, remained calm, even joking, “You should be talking to the PR department about this. What do you need me for?”“Mike, I’m not joking!”Mike, the youngest genius lawyer in France, was also Daxton’s childhood friend and a friend of Vanessa. He harbored feelings of admiration for Vanessa but knew his family wouldn’t approve of him dating someone like her. He kept those feelings hidden and treated her like a close friend instead.“Alright, alright, don’t worry. I care about Vanessa’s situation even more than you do; after all, she’s m

There are even whispers that they were married five years ago, but the woman vanished for five years, only to reappear to secure a K Group project at the bidding meeting.

The reporters continued to swarm, and when they saw Vanessa finally responding, they became even more relentless.Noticing that she had stopped speaking after that, they attempted to provoke her with rude and inappropriate remarks.“Miss Saxon, you said the child's father is deceased, so why is it that the child's age coincides with the time you were rumored to be having an affair during your marriage?”She ignored them, continuing to be protected by Daxton as they swiped their cards to enter the elevator.“If you don’t respond, could it be because the child’s father is actually President Radcliffe?”At this, Vanessa turned her furious gaze toward the reporters, then coldly laughed and told the security guard beside her, “Get them out of here.”The security guard nodded and re

“Now that you and I have nothing to do with each other, your threats no longer hold any power over me. Mr. Kensington, perhaps you should avoid provoking women too much; consider it advice.” Vanessa showed no signs of jealousy or anger, sitting calmly with her legs crossed, maintaining eye contact with him. Her gaze held an air of needing an explanation, fearless and composed.Luca fell silent, not speaking for a long while. It was hard to tell whether he was hurt or simply at a loss for words in response to Vanessa’s pointed remark.“Since Mr. Kensington has nothing to say, let me go first,” she said, taking a document from her bag—likely an analysis report on the consequences and dangers of the current gossip—and handed it to him. “Please take a look, and then you can decide.”Luca didn’t move, merely glancing at it briefly before shifting hi

What do you think...?”“Just have them contact my assistant directly.

Vanessa stared in disbelief, her eyes wide open, unwilling to believe that these words were coming from an elder. How could she casually slander someone else?At this moment, Mrs. Radcliffe seemed to be in a state of desperation, continuing, “Vanessa, how could you refuse to help us at such a critical moment, especially after all the good Daxton has done for you?”The words from Mrs. Radcliffe, coupled with Mr. Radcliffe's disappointed gaze, pierced Vanessa’s heart like sharp arrows.Tears welled in Vanessa's eyes as she responded angrily, “I’ve already repaid any debts to Daxton and the Radcliffe family. You’re looking for the wrong person today.”With that, Vanessa instructed her assistant to see them out.After sending the Radcliffe couple away, Vanessa leaned back in her chair and let out a heavy sigh, but her thoughts were a tangled mess.Luca had originally only wanted to check on Vanessa.

She was grateful that he had saved her, yet she was still unwilling to easily forgive him for what he had done before.Conflicted, Vanessa found herself alternating between memories of Luca, injured and approaching her, and his cold demeanor when he had plotted against her child.These two extreme emotions battled within her, leaving her feeling both sweet and tortured.Luca, however, was unaware of Vanessa's inner turmoil.

Only one of you can leave here today. Will it be Vanessa or yourself?”Vanessa frowned and shouted, “Daxton, are you insane?!”This time, Daxton didn’t glance at Vanessa but fixed his gaze on Luca.Luca had anticipated that things wouldn’t be simple.

In this way? Daxton, do you realize this is kidnapping? Let me go right now; I have a mountain of work waiting for me at the office.”As soon as he heard Vanessa wanted to leave, Daxton’s expression changed dramatically.

You’ll never escape.”With the oxygen in her lungs dwindling, Vanessa's face turned red as she

Daxton, you should head back. I have Mariah here to keep me company,” Vanessa said, reluctant to face Daxton. She couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off with him lately.Daxton glanced at Vanessa but didn’t say much. He only reminded her to rest well before leaving the hospital.As he pushed open the door to his home, the stark emptiness of the room was accentuated by the numerous photos lining the walls.Upon closer inspection, they were various pictures of Vanessa, many of which were clearly taken from hidden angles.Daxton stepped closer, gently tracing the images with his fingers, as if he were caressing Vanessa herself.

Worried that Luca might discover something, Beatriz cautiously glanced at him, relieved to see he wasn’t paying attention to her.Picking up on the sarcasm in Vanessa's words, Beatriz felt a bit unwilling to accept it and retorted, “President Saxon, what are you saying? Ezra is indeed feeling unwell, and as parents, it’s only natural for us to be cautious. Why does it become us slandering you here?”Vanessa found this amusing. “Miss Langley, your ability to twist facts is truly impressive. However, there’s no need for your little act in front of me; I’m not falling for it.”Seeing Vanessa’s disdainful expression, Beatriz became even more irritated. She tugged at Luca and said, “Luca, say something! Everyone in the mansion knows that Ezra is unwell. It’s not like we’re trying to sland
