Beatriz planned to claim the design proposal as a product of Ness Corp to ace the upcoming second bidding competition.

However, just as she opened the door, she saw Luca and his assistant had returned. The two were deep in conversation about work, oblivious to her presence. Beatriz clutched the documents and slipped out hurriedly.

Once outside, she called her assistant. “Contact the media immediately and announce that Ness Corp has produced the design proposal. Let’s create some buzz!”

Meanwhile, Vanessa was still working on the proposal, with Mariah offering suggestions beside her.

“Technology needs intelligent services,” Vanessa explained confidently. “We should allow visitors to search for exhibitions through smart terminals and help them navigate to the relevant areas.”

“That precision is essential,” Mariah agreed with a nod.

Just then, a news report on the television grabbed their attention: “Ness Corp is the first to present its de

    At K Group, Richard hurried to complete the new design draft, spending the entire day on it. When he reached the president’s office, ready to knock, the assistant stepped out.“The president has left. Just hand it over to me,” the assistant said.Richard shook his head, cautious. “No, I’ll deliver it personally tomorrow. I can’t risk the draft leaking again.”Back at his desk, after some thought, Richard decided to take the design home for safekeeping.Perhaps it was his designer’s instinct, but he couldn't shake the feeling that someone was watching him—like he was being followed.However, every time he turned around, there was no one.The next morning, Richard received an unexpected message:"Let’s meet. I have information you need."The message contained the address of a restaurant, signed by none other than Vanessa!Distracted all morning, Richard finally gave in to curiosity and went to the

    About half an hour later, they arrived at the entrance of the banquet hall.Daxton stepped out first, offering Vanessa his hand. She took it gracefully, linking her arm with his. The two of them made quite the striking pair.It wasn’t every day that people saw such a good-looking couple, and the guests near the entrance began whispering among themselves.“Isn’t that the president of RC Group? Who’s the woman with him? I’ve never seen him with anyone before.”“That’s Vanessa Saxon, the president from the last Cortex bid. I didn’t know they were close.”As they entered the hall, a server approached with two glasses of wine. They raised their glasses in an elegant toast.“Still as charming as ever—you had those young men absolutely mesmerized,” Vanessa teased.Daxton grinned, not missing a beat. “Don’t flatter me—it wasn’t just me. You had their eyes glued to you, too.”Vanessa gave a playful scoff but turned her attention elsewhe

    At Cortex Group, everyone seemed thrilled with Richard's arrival. “Richard, welcome!” “Yeah, we’re all family now. Here, have a bag of snacks!” This warm reception filled Richard with an unprecedented sense of belonging, solidifying his belief that he had made the right choice. Vanessa patted his shoulder. “Do your best.” Perhaps being in such a happy state could inspire even more creativity. From the moment he sat down, Richard began scribbling and drawing on the blueprints. As night fell, he finally finished everything and headed to Vanessa’s office with his design drafts and models. “I’m impressed by your speed,” Vanessa teased, raising an eyebrow. After examining Richard’s designs and models, she found them remarkably mature, showing no signs of needing revisions—better than those from Ness Corp. “I knew I didn’t make a mistake in choosing you; you’re truly outsta

    Vanessa returned to the company with good news.As soon as she entered the office area, everyone surrounded her with curious looks.“What’s wrong? Is something going on?” Vanessa asked, maintaining an expressionless face.“President Saxon, what’s the result?”“Is Cortex in first place?”“What do you all think?” Vanessa replied coolly, without a hint of a smile.Everyone felt deflated and turned back to their desks, a hint of sadness lingering in the air.Then Vanessa spoke again, “You guys really don’t have faith in yourselves, huh? I’m just joking! Don’t be scared. Let’s celebrate our victory together tonight!”Laughter erupted in the office, and even Richard cracked a rare smile.That evening, Vanessa made a point to pick up her daughter after school.“Isla, did you miss Mommy?” she asked, hugging her lovingly.“Mo

    Kensington Mansion.Grandpa Kensington was fully engrossed in painting, his strokes flowing like clouds, his penmanship like smoke.Seeing that Grandpa Kensington looked a bit tired, the butler hurried over with a cup of herbal tea.Seated in the rosewood chair, Grandpa Kensington became lost in thought again.“Old master, I heard Miss Saxon has returned,” the butler suddenly spoke up.“Oh? When did this happen? That kid never mentioned it to me,” Grandpa Kensington replied, still trying to process the information.After hesitating for a moment, the butler continued, “It’s been some time, but it seems Young Master and Miss Saxon’s situation isn’t very optimistic.”Thinking about how Luca had treated her previously, Grandpa Kensington couldn’t help but sigh.Shaking his head helplessly, he put down his teacup. “Our family has let that girl down. It’s a pity such a good child has been hurt.”To reassure the old man, the bu

    Unknowingly, time had come to a special day. Vanessa stared blankly at the date circled in red on her calendar.Having taken a leave in advance, she changed her usual attire and wore all black.Mariah was going to ask her something before leaving, but seeing her demeanor, she chose not to say anything.“Isla, you have to listen to Sister Mariah, okay? Mommy has to head out first.” Vanessa smiled as she hugged Isla.Isla happily kissed her.After getting in the car, Vanessa first went to a flower shop to buy the white bells, her mother’s favorite flower, before driving to the cemetery.On this day each year, Vanessa’s mood would inexplicably turn heavy. She glanced at the white bells on the passenger seat and then accelerated.At the cemetery, Beatriz was walking toward a gravestone with a bouquet of chrysanthemums, gently placing the flowers down before beginning to pay respects.She softly murmured, “What happened back then wa

    “No results,” Mariah replied succinctly.Vanessa didn’t press further. She knew how complicated the situation was, so she had to make herself stronger. One day, she would uncover the truth.Once back in her office, Vanessa immersed herself in work as if under a spell.She glanced at the stock market performance of the company today; everything was running smoothly, but that wasn’t nearly enough.That one bidding win was just the beginning. The business world was like a battlefield; if she stood still, she would soon be crushed by others.Therefore, Cortex Group couldn’t rely on a single development model. She had to explore new industries.After staring at the screen for a while, an ad suddenly popped up that caught her eye.“Millennia-old antiques, one day in X City.”The antique industry seemed like a promising direction for development.Just then, her assistant rushed in, flustered.“President Saxon, bad

    The first item up for auction was a classical tea set from the last century, said to be one of a kind.With a starting price of 100,000, Vanessa thought it was reasonable.A middle-aged man next to her raised the bid to 150,000, and his assistant quickly lifted the bid card.On the other side, the bids kept climbing, reaching 200,000, which intrigued Vanessa even more about this industry.The auctioneer began calling: “200,000, going once… going twice… sold!”With the final hammer strike, the tea set was claimed by another buyer.Vanessa realized that the following items were even more exquisite, their prices skyrocketing.Finally, it was time for the grand finale.

    Magnus nodded immediately. "Of course, Daddy is a strong man. If he promises Maxime something, he will make sure to do it.""Daddy is so great! Daddy is the best! I love Daddy the most!" Maxime happily jumped up and down in his arms.Senna's face immediately turned dark. "This little brat has no conscience. You’ve been bought with just a gaming console. If Mommy doesn’t buy you one, you’ll hate Mommy, right? Hmm?"When Maxime saw that his mother’s face darkened, he immediately slipped out of Magnus’s arms, hugged her arm, and coquettishly said, "No, no, Mommy, don't be mad, I love Mommy the most... the most... the most..." He said ‘the most’ many times in one breath.Senna chuckled. "Good thing you still know you love Mommy the most... Otherwise, I wouldn’t want you anymore."Maxime immediately pouted his little lips and said, "No, no, no...""Alright, Maxime, Mommy needs to rest more to recover. You go back to Rosewood Manor with Uncle Edric."As the time was getting late, Magnus cal

    When Maxime saw the old man lying in bed, his black eyes scanned the room a few times, realizing there was no one else. He then leaned over to the bedside with a cute smile. "You’re my great-grandpa." Magnus hadn’t lied to him. He was practically his mini-me, looking so much like him when he was young. The old man looked at Maxime, his eyes reddening as he almost couldn’t stop himself from crying. "Great-grandpa, why are you lying in bed, not moving?" Maxime reached up to scratch his head and then seemed to realize something. "I know, great-grandpa is sick, just like mom, and has to rest in bed, right?" "Little young master is so thoughtful. That's right, your great-grandpa is sick and can only rest in bed," the butler said, increasingly happy as he looked at the thoughtful child. What a well-behaved little one. "Mom says when you’re sick, you need to rest and drink more water. Great-grandpa, you should drink more water and eat more so you can get better soon." Maxime leaned ove

    Senna looked at Magnus, the man who was like a god to her, her eyes reddened with emotion. "Magnus, you...""Those shares were left to you by your grandparents. I know you’re worried," Magnus gently cupped her face with his hands, leaned down and softly kissed her forehead, smiling as he said, "I helped you get them back because I want you to be happy, not to make you cry.""I… I am just so overwhelmed with emotion," Senna chuckled, blinking away the tears. She cared about those shares not for the wealth they represented, but because they were a legacy from her grandparents, a blessing from them."Senna, I want to ask you for one thing," Magnus said, lifting Maxime in his arms and looking at her."You've done so much for me, and yet you're still being so distant?" Senna raised an eyebrow, her curiosity piqued."This matter requires your consent before I can act. The Voss family owes you so much," Magnus lowered his head to glance at the child who was looking at him with equal curiosit

    Mrs. Thorne had swollen, red eyes and a pale face, clearly having cried all night. She stormed in, angrily pointing at Senna and accusing her. “You wretched woman, you should have died three years ago. You shouldn’t have come back. Give me back my Astrid’s life! My poor daughter, she died so miserably!”Tobias and Maxime saw their hostile intent and quickly stood up to block Senna’s window.Maxime pointed at Mrs. Thorne and loudly said in a grown-up manner, “Old witch, I won’t allow you to curse my mom.”“Where did this wild child come from? How dare you call me an old witch? You rude, ill-mannered little bastard,” Mrs. Thorne snapped at Maxime.Senna sat up, gently patting Maxime’s head, her face darkening, and her gaze turning cold. “Maxime is not a wild child. He is my son, and he only needs to be polite to others.”Mrs. Thorne was beyond enraged. “Senna, you wretched woman, you killed my daughter, and now you’re insulting me? I’m your stepmother!

    In a spacious, luxurious private hospital room, The Old Master lay on the bed, his face withered, his expression weary, and his eyes hollow. He had always been so proud and arrogant, unable to accept that he was now paralyzed. He refused to eat, and after two days, he could only survive on nutrition injections.“Old Master, I beg you, please eat a bit. If you don’t eat or drink like this, how can your body survive?” The butler, holding a bowl of congee, tried to feed him, but he refused to open his mouth.The butler felt heartbroken. He had served the old master for many years, and their relationship had long exceeded the bounds of master and servant. He thought of him as a brother, a family member. Seeing him like this, he wished he could take the suffering for him.The old man was known for his stubbornness; when he didn’t want to do something, no one could force him. He was once a powerful figure, but now he had fallen to such a state,

    “You don’t have it now, but you will soon. Hurry up and get better, don’t forget, the tenth day is our big day,” Magnus said as he held her hand, his face full of anticipation.“Everyone outside thinks you're going to marry Astrid Thorne. What does that have to do with me?” Senna turned her face away and snorted.“Are you jealous?” Magnus couldn’t help but chuckle. “You’re the mother of my two children, yet you’re still so jealous.”Magnus reached out to turn her face back to him, gently brushing her nose with his finger. “I haven’t told you yet, Astrid is dead.”“What? Astrid is dead?” Senna asked in surprise. “How did she die?” She had already guessed that Magnus wouldn’t let her off after hurting her at the mansion, but she didn’t expect him to go as far as killing her.After the shock, she felt a little pity—it w

    Magnus reached out and gently wiped the tears from her face, his voice hoarse. “My Grandpa believed you were the one who set the fire that killed Matthias. He wouldn’t pass up any chance to take revenge on you. If I hadn’t done what I did, your life would have been in danger.”“Sis, brother-in-law didn’t mean to deceive you. Please forgive him.” Tobias pleaded anxiously.“You bad daddy! You made Mommy cry! I hate you!” Maxime angrily raised his little arm and shoved him away before hugging Senna tightly, speaking in an old-fashioned tone, “Mommy, don’t cry. Maxime loves you the most.”Looking at his own son standing like a wall between them, Magnus’s temple twitched violently. He barely resisted the urge to throw the little brat out.“Maxime, kids shouldn’t interrupt when adults are talking. Let me talk to your daddy, okay?” Senna stroked his head, her mind overflowing

    It was unclear how much time had passed when a beautiful melody drifted into Senna’s ears. This song…“Sis, don’t sleep anymore. Please wake up, okay? I miss you so much. Sis, it’s been so long since you sang me to sleep. Do you still remember this song? You used to sing it to me all the time. Please wake up, sis. I’m so worried about you.”The familiar voice echoed in her ears—it was Tobias’s voice. Could it be… that she had died and met Tobias in heaven?“Sis, wake up! Open your eyes and look at me! It’s me, Tobias. How could you be so cruel and leave me behind?”Tobias’s voice grew increasingly sorrowful, choked with tears. Big, warm drops of his tears landed on Senna’s face.“Tobias…” It really was his voice. Senna’s eyes flew open, and the moment she saw that familiar little face so close to hers, tears gushed uncontrollably dow

    But, the butler warning came too late. The sharp blade plunged mercilessly into the old master’s abdomen."You old bastard," Astrid sneered, her voice dripping with venom. "Three years ago, you promised me that if I got rid of Senna, I would marry into the Voss family as the young madam. But you went back on your word—I tolerated it. And now, when Magnus’s people are hunting me down, you want to cut ties with me? Since I’m doomed anyway, I’ll take you down with me. HAHAHA!""Old Master!"Blood spurted out as Astrid pulled out the knife. The butler’s face turned ashen with terror. Without hesitation, he raised his gun.Bang!The gunshot rang out.Astrid’s crazed laughter was abruptly silenced. A bullet pierced her forehead. Her wide, crazed eyes froze in place as her body collapsed to the ground, lifeless, her expression frozen in disbelief."Old Master, are you alright? Someone call for help!
