Julia clenched her teeth tightly, her anger boiling within her. She wanted to get up and retaliate for the slap she received, but her waist ached, and her cheek felt like it was burning.

"Mom!"

Amora’s attention shifted to a young woman who had just entered from outside. The woman was Bianca Lysander, Julia’s daughter and Amora’s cousin.

Bianca hurried to her mother and supported her. "Mom, are you okay?" she asked anxiously.

Julia didn’t respond, her gaze fixed coldly on Amora, causing Bianca to follow her stare.

“Amora? How are you here?” Bianca asked in confusion, finally realizing the cause of the commotion in the house.

However, Amora didn’t respond to her question. The man who had entered with Bianca captured her attention.

Chris Walden froze at the sight of the woman who had once captured his heart seven years ago. His eyes, filled with longing, gazed intensely at Amora.

They stared at each other for five seconds until Julia’s voice broke the moment.

“Amora, look at your shamel

    "Of course, it's not true. Why would I do that, Dad?" Julia quickly denied.She didn’t want to admit anything. She didn’t want her father-in-law to find out what she had been secretly doing behind his back."It seems like she came here just to stir up trouble, Father," Julia added.Charlie only gave Amora a sharp look. His expression was very neutral as if he was hiding something in his mind.Before Amora could explain further, Julia spoke again in a condescending tone to cover up her wrongdoing, "If you’re having money troubles, there’s no need to be ashamed. Just say it straight. Maybe I or Grandpa would consider helping you out."Amora rolled her eyes in annoyance."Your acting just gets better and better every day, Julia. Why don't you try auditioning for a movie? You might make it," Amora mocked the drama Julia was putting on in front of them.Julia’s jaw tightened. With fire in her eyes, she said, "If you need money, just say how much you need, Amora! Don’t go around falsely acc

    Julia could no longer tolerate the insults Amora was throwing at her and her daughter. She ordered one of the servants to call security, but Amora stopped her.“There’s no need for that, Julia. I’ll leave on my own. I hope we never have to meet again,” Amora said.Julia clenched her teeth. She stood up and ordered a servant to drag Amora out of the house, but Amora resisted and pushed the servant to the floor.“Don’t force me to do more than this, Julia. Do you think humiliating me and stepping on me will make me leave this city as you wish? Don’t count on it,” Amora said with a cold smile.Julia chose not to respond, not wanting to arouse suspicion from her father-in-law or son-in-law later.“Do you think I’ll just stand by and let you keep doing things behind my back?” Amora said again, her voice icy.She glanced at Alberta, who was standing by the kitchen door, looking worried. Alberta wasn’t sure how to intervene and was afraid of getting involved, knowing Julia’s temper, especial

    "I want you and your men to follow them. I’ll transfer the payment to your account," said Charlie to the person on the other end of the phone.After giving his instructions, Charlie ended the call. He placed his phone back on the table and gazed out of the window.A week ago, Charlie had been recommended a private investigator by a business associate during an annual meeting. He received the contact of a paid spy who could help him investigate any case.Initially, Charlie wasn’t interested in using such services, but now he felt the need to uncover the secrets of those around him.Three years ago, Charlie had handed over his company to his son, Mario Lysander, and since then, he hadn’t been deeply involved in the business.However, over the past year, Charlie had been hearing complaints from company executives about Mario’s excessive spending on unnecessary things.At first, Charlie thought his son might need the money to make changes within the company. But with the growing number of

    "How come you're here? Don’t tell me this is just a coincidence."Amora glanced at Regis, who was driving beside her. A while ago, he had suddenly pulled up next to the bus stop and called her to get into his car.At first, Amora wanted to refuse, but thinking about the little money she had left in her pocket, she chose to accept the free ride. Besides, there was something important she wanted to discuss with Regis."It’s not a coincidence," Regis admitted openly."So, you followed me on purpose?" Amora asked, narrowing her eyes. She didn’t expect Regis to confess to something she found inappropriate.Regis gave a slight nod, focusing on driving.Amora let out a long sigh. "Don’t you have anything better to do, Young Master Lorenzo?""This is part of my job," Regis replied indifferently.Amora rolled her eyes, and silence fell between them, making the atmosphere a little uncomfortable. Even though there was something she wanted to talk to Regis about, she didn’t know how to begin.Amo

    "Sorry, Sir. What did you say?" Amora asked, furrowing her brow.Just as Regis had given his response to Amora a few seconds earlier, a passing car honked loudly at the car in front of them, so Amora didn’t hear what Regis had said clearly.Regis, however, let out a sigh of relief. The honk had snapped him out of the foolish words he had just blurted out. He couldn’t believe he had made such a spontaneous confession.When Regis had looked into Amora’s beautiful, shining eyes, the words had slipped out of his mouth uncontrollably."Sir Lorenzo, can you repeat that? I didn’t…"“There’s no repeating. I never say the same thing twice,” Regis interrupted nervously. He quickly moved his hand away from her chin and turned to look out the car window to calm the pounding in his chest.“What? Why not?” Amora protested, becoming more curious. Regis had looked so serious when he gave his answer, but unfortunately, she hadn’t heard it.“You didn’t insult me just now, did you?” Amora guessed suspic

    Regis’s car had just arrived at the hospital entrance when Mark swiftly came to greet him.“Thank you, Mr. Carter,” Amora said as Regis’s assistant opened the door for her.Mark gave a small nod.“What happened to your arm, Mr. Carter?” Amora asked, noticing the bandage wrapped around Mark’s arm.Mark was wearing a short-sleeved hoodie, giving him a casual appearance, since this wasn’t a work-related visit.“It’s just a small accident, Miss,” Mark replied, giving her a small salute before quickly moving toward Regis, who had just stepped out of the car.Regis handed the car keys to Mark. Without needing to say anything, Mark understood his task.Regis hurried after Amora, who had already walked ahead. With long strides, he caught up with her. Their presence together immediately caught the attention of hospital visitors and staff, but Regis ignored the looks.How could he not stand out? Dressed all in black, from his top to his pants, Regis exuded a mysterious, sexy aura that captivate

    After Biana left, Amora approached her son, who was happily chatting with Regis. Although her face still showed signs of fatigue, seeing her son interact so joyfully warmed Amora’s heart."Ray, how are you feeling now? Is there still any pain, Sweetheart?" Amora asked, her face full of worry.The boy's attention shifted to her. "I'm fine, Mom," he replied with a wide smile.Instead of feeling relieved, Amora's expression softened with sadness. She gently took her son’s hand in hers.Seeing the needle still attached to the back of her son’s small hand, Amora's heart ached deeply."I'm so sorry, Ray. I’ve been neglectful and didn’t pay enough attention to you. I should have known you were in pain…."Amora's voice began to tremble. She bit her lip, trying to hold back her sobs.Quickly, she wiped away the tears that were about to fall from her eyes. Rayden offered a small smile, squeezing his mother’s hand and softly brushing her cheek."I'm the one who should apologize, Mom. I made you

    A satisfied smile appeared on Regis' lips as his eyes scanned the report handed to him by his assistant. He glanced briefly at the pale-faced woman standing in front of him.The woman nervously wrung her hands. Gone was the arrogance and defiance that usually flowed from her lips when facing him."Want to see?" Regis offered, extending his assistant's device to Amora.She glared at him but still took the device. Amora's hazel eyes quickly scanned the conclusion at the end of the DNA test results.Clearly written was the statement, "The probability of the alleged father being the biological father of the child is more than 99.99%."Amora closed her eyes for a moment. This result did not surprise her, as she knew full well that the man who had taken her purity and planted the seed in her womb was none other than Regis Lorenzo. No other man had ever touched her."When did you plan this?" Amora asked sharply.She felt caught off guard by this. Regis had obtained a sample for the DNA test

    In the lavish living room of a five-star hotel suite, Alejandro Volker sat on a plush sofa, slowly puffing on a cigar. He seemed lost in thought until the voice of a younger man sitting across from him snapped him out of his reverie.“Let’s cut to the chase. Why did you ask me to come here, Mr. Volker?”Alejandro’s gaze fixed on the young man seated in front of him — clean-cut and impeccably dressed. The look on his face was one of obvious impatience.A faint smirk tugged at the corner of Alejandro’s lips. “Young Master Lorenzo, you’ve changed quite a bit since the last time we met.”Yes — the young man with him was none other than Regis Lorenzo.Not long ago, Regis received an unexpected phone call from Alejandro. He had no idea how Alejandro got his number, but he knew it wouldn’t be hard for someone in their circles.Alejandro had invited him to meet in this very hotel suite. Regis hadn’t planned to accept, but Alejandro mentioned he might be able to convince Diego—Regis’s father—t

    Diego’s lips curled into a faint smirk at the woman’s reaction before he added, “But, if you want to tell Regis, that’s fine too. I wouldn’t want to waste the Old Madam Lysander’s time. Besides, she probably doesn’t have much time left anyway.”Amora’s eyes widened in shock. She shot up from her seat and slammed her hand on the table.“Mr. Lorenzo, stop threatening me by using my grandmother! Is this how a leader of the Royal Dragon behaves? Don’t you feel the slightest bit of shame?” she snapped.Diego’s expression darkened at Amora’s criticism, but he didn’t respond to her outburst. Instead, he said coolly, “If you leave Regis, I’ll grant you one request. This is the last of my patience, Miss Lysander.”“That’s not fair, Mr. Lorenzo! Why are you being so selfish? Are you only thinking about your happiness? Regis is your son, but nothing you’ve done reflects what a father should be!” Amora shouted, her anger boiling over.She couldn’t hold back anymore—his words and attitude had cros

    “Do you want to meet your biological father, Miss Lysander?” Diego asked, his tone probing.He had considered arranging a meeting between them as a trade-off—if Amora agreed to leave Regis. “If you want, I can—”But Amora cut him off immediately. “That won’t be necessary!”Diego froze, caught off guard. He noticed the tears beginning to pool in her clear eyes, but there was something else there too—a sharp, almost predatory glare that made it clear she wasn’t someone to mess with.A faint, cold smile curved Diego’s lips. That side of her ... it was just like Alejandro Volker—and Diego hated that side the most.Even though he could see how angry Amora was with both Alejandro and himself, Diego couldn’t care less. In fact, he almost welcomed her hatred for Alejandro. To him, that was a win.‘Alejandro Volker … maybe the best punishment for you is your daughter’s hate,’ Diego thought with a twisted smile.He wanted Alejandro to feel the same kind of pain he felt now—being despised by you

    "Are you criticizing how I handle my son, Miss Lysander?" Diego asked, his voice cold and piercing.The pressure in the air made Amora hold her breath. She quickly broke eye contact with the middle-aged man. That sharp gaze, almost suffocating in intensity, made her realize she might've crossed the line. Still, she didn’t believe anything she said was wrong.“I think you know what I really meant, Sir,” Amora replied, refusing to back down even a little.Diego scoffed. Her unyielding attitude both impressed and annoyed him. “If he hadn’t chosen a life with you, I wouldn’t have gone this far either, Miss Lysander,” he said as calmly as he could.Inside, though, rage was boiling in his chest. But he wasn’t about to let Amora see that she had managed to stir him so easily.Diego kept cornering her with harsh words, trying to make it seem like all his actions were her fault, as if she were the root of the problem. And that made Amora’s blood boil.‘No! I can’t lose it. He still has Grandma

    “Mr. Lorenzo—”“Let’s talk over dinner,” Diego cut her off before Amora could say anything else. He signaled to one of his men standing by the door.Moments later, a server rolled in a cart of food that had clearly been prepared in advance. He placed a plate of beef bourguignon in front of Amora and Diego.The rich aroma of the dish made Amora’s stomach growl. She was starving—she hadn’t eaten a single thing since morning. But despite the tempting sight and smell in front of her, she held herself back.“I’m sorry, please take my plate away,” Amora said to the server.The man hesitated and looked toward Diego, whose expression had darkened at her refusal—clearly taking it as a sign of disrespect.Amora could sense the shift in Diego, too. Still, she stayed calm, projecting confidence as she stared him down. “I’m not hungry. So let’s just cut to the chase, Mr. Lorenzo.”Diego smirked. With a wave of his hand, the server quickly wheeled the food cart out of the room.“What do you want in

    "Grandma ...."Amora’s whisper was soft and full of sorrow. She deeply regretted dragging her innocent grandmother into her mess.Clutching her phone tightly, Amora’s earlier resolve to avoid Diego completely shifted. Without a second thought, she bolted out of her rented house and rushed to the meeting place Diego had set.Thirty minutes later, she arrived. Amora glanced around before stepping toward the restaurant.Her brows furrowed when she saw the sign hanging on the restaurant’s door—it said closed. But the street outside still buzzed with activity like usual. A place like this shouldn’t be closing this early.Her heart pounded. A sinking feeling settled in her chest as her mind conjured all the terrible things that might be happening inside. For a second, she considered turning back. But then her grandmother’s face flashed in her mind, reigniting her courage.She took a deep breath, bracing herself, and pushed the door open. The silence inside sent a chill down her spine.The r

    “Oh my God. What time is it?”Amora shot up in bed, completely startled to see the sun already high in the sky. She turned to glance at the wall clock and nearly panicked—it was almost ten in the morning. And she hadn’t even started prepping lunch for her husband and son yet.Running her fingers through her already-messy hair, she groaned, “Ugh, I can’t believe I slept this long.”She had only meant to lie down for a bit—but somehow, she ended up sleeping for three whole hours!Normally, no matter how tired she was, Amora never slept this deeply. Something felt off. She realized she’d been feeling unusually drained for the past week, and today it was even worse.“Am I ... actually sick?” she murmured, worry creeping into her voice.But a moment later, Amora shook her head firmly. She tried to shake off the fear with a positive affirmation. “No. I can’t be sick,” she said with conviction.She didn’t want to give Regis anything else to worry about—especially not her health. So she pushe

    It had been three days since Regis, Amora, and Rayden moved into their modest rental home. A calm morning greeted them with warmth and cheer. The scent of freshly baked pizza mixed with the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air.“Morning, Dad,” Rayden greeted as his father walked out of the bathroom and joined them at the dining table.“Morning, Ray,” Regis replied, bumping fists with his son.Simple mornings like these had become a special kind of happiness for Regis over the past few days. A warm greeting and a genuine smile to start the day—no wealth or power could ever replace that.But deep down, Regis still carried a concern—he hadn’t secured any steady income yet. Over the past two days, he had applied to several companies, but not a single one had called him in for an interview.Regis suspected his father had a hand in that. Both Gino and Xavier had previously offered him positions in their personal businesses.But Regis turned them down. Their lines of work didn’

    “Mad?” Amora raised an eyebrow.Regis gave a hesitant nod. “Aren’t you? I mean, you were completely silent on the drive here.”Amora let out a small laugh before replying, “I’m not mad. I was just a little annoyed earlier. I’m sorry.”Seeing how concerned Regis looked, she added, “But I’ve thought about it, and I understand—you were only trying to keep us safe.”Earlier, Amora had stayed quiet in the car, reflecting on Regis’s words. She realized that her stubbornness might’ve put them in danger. But Regis had misread her silence, thinking she was giving him the cold shoulder.“I was going to say sor—”Before she could finish her sentence, Regis leaned in and kissed her lips.Amora’s eyes widened in surprise. She quickly glanced around, noticing the agent who had accompanied them looked just as shocked. The agent immediately turned away, pretending not to see anything so as not to make Amora feel uncomfortable. But Amora's face had already turned bright red like a boiled lobster.“Reg
