The Kidnap
At the awards ceremony, Daxton, as a guest performer, sang a song from his new album to rousing cheers.
The host announced the nominees for Best Newcomer, including Sophia, Cheryl, and two other new actors. The winner was Cheryl!
Sophia was stunned. How could it be Cheryl? Her father had made it clear that he had taken care of the jury for her. Could it be that they had not been bought for this award?
Ethan turned to her and asked, "What's wrong?"
Sophia shook her head, "Nothing, just a little disappointed."
Ethan patted her hand, comforting, "It's okay, there are other awards."
Sophia nodded, thinking the Best Newcomer might not be prestigious enough. Her award must be coming later.
After another performance, the Most Popular Male Actor award was announced, and unsurprisingly, Zane won.
Zane stood up, s

Kieran drove like he never had before. If anything happened to Aurora, the boss wouldn't care who lived in those villas; he'd turn the place upside down.At the crossroads where the surveillance ended, Jay leaped out and scanned the ground, then shot up with a revelation, "The right! It's the right road! The villas here usually have sedans, and that van's tires were 185R14s! It's these tracks!"Jumping back into the car, Jay urged, "Drive! Just drive!"As Kieran took the turn, he asked, "You know your tires, huh?"Jay grinned with a touch of pride, "Oh yeah, you pick up on these things... you know, just from around." He scratched his head, almost spilling more than he intended.Heath's gaze was sharp; he knew Jay was no ordinary Joe—no ID, no papers, but with skills that didn't add up.But right now, Heath's only concern was finding Aurora.
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife A Pawn
Aurora woke up and it was already the next morning. She blinked open her groggy eyes and sat up, still wearing yesterday's jeans, but her top had been swapped for an oversized T-shirt.Glancing around at the familiar surroundings, she let out a sigh of relief. Yesterday hadn't been a dream; Heath really had come to her rescue.Just as she sat up, the bedroom door swung open and in walked Heath, sporting the same style of T-shirt as hers, his arm carrying a pale pink garment that was unexpectedly cute by contrast."Is this yours?" Aurora pointed at the T-shirt she was wearing."Yep," Heath nodded. "Your clothes were ruined, and since we didn’t have any pajamas for you, I just grabbed something for you to change into."Aurora's cheeks flushed. So, it was Heath who had changed her clothes?Heath sat down beside her bed, looking at her seriously. "I only gave you a quick check for injuries yesterday. Go to the bathroom and take off your pants to check if there are other injuries, and don’
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife The Kiss
"Rory?" Heath gave her a gentle pat, "What's up?"Aurora snapped back to reality, shaking her head, "It's nothing."Kieran drove them to the hotel, to the same presidential suite with its two bedrooms. Heath carried her into the living room and placed her on the sofa, touching her hair softly, "Play around for a bit, I need to handle some things."Aurora obediently nodded, sitting in the living room flipping through magazines when the doorbell rang.The study door was shut tight. Maybe Heath and Kieran didn't hear it. Aurora stood up to answer the door and froze."Eamon?" It took a moment for Aurora to register his presence, "What are you doing here?""Aurora, long time no see," Eamon greeted her, a bit startled himself.She let him in, "Heath and Kieran are in the study."Eamon nodded and looked back at her, "Aurora, are you visiting the States for fun?"Aurora smiled, "Yeah, it's my first time here. Heath brought me over for a look."Eamon glanced at her and without a word, knocked
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Driving to the Whitmores'
Back in her sanctuary, Aurora was a flurry of emotions and hot showers. She glared at her own flushed face in the mirror and gave herself a pep talk – a literal slap of reality – muttering, "Get it together, Aurora. You're acting crazy!"The shock was real – she kissed Heath! Was she sleepwalking or what?She'd never let Heath get away with a kiss before without putting up a fight. What was different now? It dawned on her – he had guilt-tripped her! Her overflowing sympathy had left her defenses down. Yeah, that had to be the reason.In the midst of documents and serious business, Heath was in his room trying to focus but failing miserably. That kiss had left a sweet aftertaste that he couldn't shake off. Aurora was his weakness, and thinking about her just made him lose track of time and sense.He remembered the way she looked earlier, innocently standing on her tiptoes, her cheeks flushed and her eyes wide, fluttering like the wings of a butterfly. It was a snapshot he couldn't eras
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife I Have You in My Eyes
Heath, attired in a black suit with a subtle pattern, possessed sharp, well-defined features. He didn't wear a mask, and as soon as he entered the hall, he was the focus of myriad stares. Many greeted him; he acknowledged them with a minimal nod in response.Aurora had been unaware of the extent of Heath's influence in the United States.Heath glanced at her and spoke, "I'll have matters to attend to with Eamon later; don't wander off. Stay and enjoy the banquet."Aurora nodded, intuitively feeling that Heath didn't wish to disclose the details of his business to her.The masquerade ball was a swirl of strangers' faces, with the majority of the men forgoing masks as their presence was business-oriented, not for covert leisure.In contrast, the women companions sported a variety of masks, their attendance purely for the festivities, along with the socialites wearing exquisite makeup, for whom their visage was key to allure the opposite sex - why would they hide behind masks?The bustli
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Dominic, I'm So Scared
Aurora watched as Carly walked to the door, followed closely by Jasper as they left the hall, presumably to scout the surroundings.Just as she turned around, Heath had come down and walked briskly to her side upon seeing her. Aurora felt a bit nervous, clutching her purse, hoping Heath wouldn't notice."How are you? Tired?" Heath asked.Aurora shook her head: "I'm okay."As music played timely, couples entered the dance floor to dance. Heath extended his hand with a slight smile, "May I have the honor of this dance, Miss?"Aurora smiled, picked up her skirt slightly, and curtsied, placing her hand in Heath's palm: "It would be my honor."He led her to the dance floor, moving to the soft music. Her unexpectedly professional dancing surprised him, "Have you learned dancing before?""Uh... my grandfather had someone teach me," Aurora made up an excuse to get by. The etiquette of these social events was a course she had to learn in the Abyss, or else she would be punished.Heath, dancing
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife The Shooting
She awoke in Aurora's body, and the very next day, Dominic and Isabella got engaged.All those sweet words, gentle gazes, unbeatable achievements, and her countless scars suddenly turned into the biggest joke.It was all a lie, and she was always Dominic's sharpest blade and most competent pawn.She hadn't thought of Dominic in a long time, her only focus was to kill Isabella, and if Dominic got in her way, she'd take revenge on him too.But she didn't expect to meet him so soon.She thought she wouldn't feel anything, but now, she felt as if her tongue had been taken away, unable to utter even a simple "hello."Heath's expression was beyond bad. He held Aurora's hand so tightly it was almost breaking, but she seemed numb to the pain, showing no reaction.This damned woman, she had never looked at him like that!Since Dominic appeared, Aurora seemed like she had lost her soul!Dominic met Aurora's gaze, feeling a tremor in his heart.In her clear eyes, there was hatred, conflict, desp
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Aurora, You Are Quite Capable
Crouched low, Carly sprinted towards the gunfire, while Aurora circled the house to find a large tree. She bent down, hitched up her skirt, and climbed up, adjusting her sniper rifle to find the right position among the branches.Loading, aiming, calculating wind speed, she fine-tuned her scope. The moment her eye met the scope, the green crosshairs filling her vision, she felt like a warrior returning to the battlefield, sword in hand.By now, most of the guests had left. Through her night-vision scope, the red halos that appeared were those engaged in the firefight.Aurora's gaze followed Carly, who, to avoid stray bullets, had to advance quickly, bent at the waist. Circling the bushes around the house, Carly took advantage of the distraction provided by the gunfire and slipped into the underbrush.A hand slowly emerged from the bushes, waving in the night. Aurora knew Carly had joined up with Jasper.But the gunfire around them was intensifying. Carly and Jasper could barely sneak
