Adam leaned back against the seat, clearly satisfied with the apprehension flickering across her face. Instead of answering, he pulled out his tablet and started scrolling through the latest online headlines.
[Does Adam Dean Have a Secret Lover?!]
[Who Is the Mysterious ‘Veiled’ Woman with the Heir?][The Hidden Woman in Adam Dean’s Life: Who Is She?]The articles spread across the screen, speculation running wild.
“Adam Dean!” Evelyn snapped, irritation flaring in her voice. “Put that away and—”
Before she could finish, the car took a sharp turn, throwing her off balance. She gasped as she tumbled forward—straight into Adam’s lap.
His tablet hit the floor with a dull thud, but Evelyn barely noticed. Her face burned a

"Urgh..." A soft groan escaped Evelyn’s lips as she slowly sat up in bed.A sharp throbbing in her head made her wince as she scanned the unfamiliar room, her heart racing at the sight of her strange surroundings.Nothing felt familiar, and the pounding of her heart only grew stronger.Her eyes quickly darted around until they froze in shock, landing on a man—completely naked—lying beside her.

She snatched it up and saw countless missed calls and unread messages from her younger sister, Rebecca.[Evelyn! Where are you?! You need to come home now! Dad is furious!]All the messages ca

“How could I enter the wrong room?!” Evelyn screamed internally, panic rising in her chest.She had just made a colossal mistake for the most ridiculous reason!Quickly, she turned on her heel, ready to flee from the scene, praying no one would ever find out—especially not her fiancé.But fate had other plans.“Evelyn?”Just as she was about to bolt, she froze at the sound of a familiar voice.A tall, handsome man stood before her, his face a mix of confusion and pain. His gaze shifted from the hotel room door numbered 1010 to Evelyn, who stood disheveled in front of him.“Andre…” Evelyn’s voice cracked as she spoke his name.Andre Sterling, the only heir to the richest business family in New Santerra, was her fiancé—arranged, but still a man who truly loved her. And Evelyn loved him too.His eyes fell upon the reddish marks scattered across her neck and chest, stark against her skin where the collar of her dress had slipped just a bit. A wave of anger and disbelief crashed over him.

The sound of a loud slap echoed in the Collins family living room. "You shameless girl!" a middle-aged man shouted, his emotions boiling over.Evelyn stood frozen, still shocked from the blow she received just after stepping through the front door."Where were you last night, huh? Who were you with?!" Richard's fierce gaze pierced through her. The dark circles under his eyes showed he hadn't slept well.Evelyn bit her lip, unsure of how to respond. “I was—” she started, clenching her fists.A girl with a pretty face hurried to hold her father's hand. She looked at Evelyn with concern. “Dad! Don’t be too harsh with Evelyn! Let her explain first!”“Be quiet, Rebecca! How can I calm down when your sister was acting like a prostitute last night?!” Richard yelled, filled with rage. He then held up his phone, displaying a video for Rebecca and Evelyn. “Look at this!”The video showed a blurry figure of a man entering room 1010. Shortly after, a girl in a tight red dress followed him inside,

“Get rid of the baby!” Richard said coldly in response to Evelyn's shocking news. “We’re having an abortion today!”Evelyn furrowed her brows at her father’s words. “But, Dad…” She glanced down at her stomach, gently rubbing it. “The baby isn’t at fault.”Richard raised an eyebrow. “So what?” He felt uneasy, sensing his daughter had a foolish idea. “The baby might not be to blame, but you are! Aborting the baby is the best way to fix your mistake!”Evelyn closed her eyes, knowing she could never be right in her father's eyes. She realized that her night with a stranger was her fault. Yet, after reflecting on everything for weeks, she became certain of one thing: someone had set her up.“I’ll take responsibility for my mistake, but not by getting rid of this baby,” she replied firmly, meeting her father's gaze. “I won’t abort it.”“Shut your damn mouth!” Richard slammed his hand on the table, unable to contain his anger. “You should know that despite the rumors flying around, I’ve conv

We can buy it later, okay?” replied a calm boy who looked just like the girl. His steady demeanor made some onlookers think he was older than he appeared.Between the two adorable twins, a beautiful woman in elegant attire held their hands, smiling down at them. She knelt before her children and said, “Liam is so understanding,” she praised. Then, she turned to Lily, gently stroking her hair. “Just be patient, sweetheart.

Despite trying to forget that night for years, memories of it haunted her.

HR can handle it. I’m not going to miss the chance of a contract with a top music label, am I?” His focus was clear.Fifteen minutes later, as they stepped into the lobby, Julian’s tablet dinged with a notification. He glanced at it and sighed. “HR just informed me that the interviews have concluded.”“Hmm,” Adam responded curtly, stepping into the elevator without breaking his stride. “Tell them to prepare a report on the candidates. I want it on my desk soon.” He didn’t pay any mind to the admiring glances cast his way by employees as they passed.“Who is that?

Adam was about to speak when the soft chime of the elevator interrupted him. The doors slid open, revealing a group of employees waiting to step in. Without hesitation, Adam slipped off his suit jacket and draped it over Evelyn’s head, shielding her from prying eyes.Startled by the unexpected gesture, Evelyn let out a muffled yelp. “What the—!?”“Come with me,” Adam cut her off, his firm hand wrapping around her waist as he led her out of the elevator and through the lobby. His grip was firm, unyielding, making it impossible for her to resist without causing a scene.Whispers erupted the moment they stepped out.

Her heart pounded so hard it hurt. ‘How does he know?’ she thought, panic gripping her.For five years, she had convinced herself that Adam wouldn’t recognize her—that after that night, he had moved on without ever realizing who she was. And yet, here he was, looking at her with sharp, knowing eyes.A Few Hours EarlierAdam stared at the DNA test results on his desk, his usual calm shattered by the words before him.Probability of paternity: 99.9%His hand covered his mouth as he exhaled sharply, leaning back in his chair.

“Let go of me!” Evelyn shouted, struggling to free herself. But she hadn’t expected Ryan to be this strong. Realizing she couldn’t overpower him, she did the only thing she could. “Help! Somebody help me!”Instead of panicking, Ryan smirked, almost amused by her resistance. Something about Evelyn fighting back only fueled his twisted sense of control.“No one can hear you, sweetheart,” he murmured, pressing his heavy body against hers. “This office is soundproof.”Evelyn grimaced in disgust, her heart pounding in terror as she felt his breath against her skin. She knew screaming wouldn’t help—no one would come.

"What?! Who is this someone—"Without a shred of patience left, Adam ended the call abruptly. Frustrated, he tossed his phone onto the desk and returned to his work.Julian, still standing in the room, gaped at his boss in shock. ‘Mr. Adam… has a girlfriend?’ Despite Adam’s usual impassive expression, Julian’s mind was spinning with questions. ‘Who? Why don’t I know about this?!’While Julian was drowning in confusion, Adam lifted his gaze and shot him a sharp look. "Is your job to stare at my face?"Julian snapped his head down, pretending to focus on the documents in his hands. But despite his better judgment, curiosity got the better of him. "Since when do you have a girlfriend, Mr. Adam?" he asked cautiously.Adam, still signing documents, didn’t react at first. He continued flipping through the pages, his pen moving effortlessly across th

As the family’s patriarch, every member of the Dean family treated him with utmost respect.Except for Adam.Rather than softening his tone, Adam’s voice grew colder. "So, why are you calling, Grandfather?" he asked bluntly, already anticipating that whatever the old man had to say wouldn’t be to his liking.Noah, lounging on a chair on the grand terrace of his mansion, raised his voice again.

She kept dumping work on others, so she got what she deserved.][Renata123: @KerRea10 Linda was just bad at her job. She got fired, and that’s fair. Why blame someone just because they’re pretty?

I’m jealous too, but at least I know I’m not on the same level as the new secretary.][Renata123: @Tria22 Hahaha, let’s hope they’re really a perfect match!]Julian’s eyes widened as he scrolled through the Instagram comments.

“No need, ma’am. The man on that day left without causing any trouble, and he returned my card,” Julian replied casually.Hearing that, Evelyn sighed in relief. At least Andre hadn’t complicated things further, sparing her the ordeal of paying him off. “I’m glad to hear that,” she said with a soft smile.Though she owed Julian nothing, Evelyn felt grateful for how he had helped her handle Andre Sterling’s unwelcome intrusion.An idea crossed her mind—perhaps she could give him a small gift in return.“What’s your favorite food, Mr. Julian?” Evelyn asked suddenly, catching both Julian and Rena off guard.‘Whoa, go for it, Ms. Evelyn! I support this!’ Rena cheered internally, her mind running wild with possibilities. She assumed Evelyn was trying to flirt with Julian.Though Julian wasn’t in the same league as Adam in terms of status, his tall fr

Evelyn? Ms. Evelyn!”The sound of her name, accompanied by a hand waving in front of her face, snapped Evelyn out of her daze. “R-Rena?” she stammered, blinking as she registered the presence of her younger colleague. “Oh, hi,” she added hesitantly, still disoriented.Rena smiled sympathetically, used to Evelyn’s occasional moments of absentmindedness. Standing in line behind Evelyn at the office cafeteria, she asked, “So, how was your first day yesterday?”Evelyn forced a smile as she pointed to one of the dishes for the server. “It was … fine, I think?” she said uncertainly. Memories of her encounter with Linda flashed in her mind. “Although, as you said, Ms. Linda is … difficult.”Rena grabbed her food and followed Evelyn to a table, waving off a coworker to indicate she’d be sitting with the new secretary. “Everyone’s already heard about what happened yesterday,” Rena said casually as they sat across from each other.Evelyn froze, her fork halfway to her mouth. “What do you mean?”
