"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

    "You finally admitted it, Amora."A triumphant smile curved across Regis' lips. He felt a huge sense of relief after winning the battle he had been anxiously waging since yesterday. He had successfully broken through Amora's arrogance and exposed her lies.Although Regis had always suspected that Rayden was the result of their heated affair, hearing the confession directly from Amora gave him a mix of excitement and relief.Regis wasn’t sure what kind of expression would properly reflect his joy. He figured he needed time to adapt to his new role as the father of a son he had just discovered."What do you plan to do now that you know, Sir Lorenzo?" Amora asked, her voice probing.She had no choice but to confess everything. She couldn’t hide from the undeniable evidence Regis presented. All she could do was hope that he wouldn't try to take Rayden away from her.If Regis had had any deceitful intentions, Amora would have already resolved to fight and never let him take her son from he

    "Amora, you should get some rest. Let me watch over Ray."Noel's voice broke Amora's thoughts as she sat by Rayden’s bedside. Her son looked much better after receiving the best medical care. Exhausted, Rayden had fallen into a deep sleep, and Amora stayed by his side.Seeing the fatigue etched on Amora's face, Noel felt a pang of sympathy. She hadn’t left Rayden’s side from the moment they rushed to the hospital until the doctors finished treating him."It’s fine. I’m worried he’ll look for me when he wakes up," Amora murmured, her voice hoarse.Noel let out a quiet sigh. He grabbed a bottle of water he had bought from a vending machine earlier and handed it to her."At least drink some water. Your lips are dry," Noel coaxed gently.Amora turned to him, offering a small smile before accepting the bottle. She took slow sips, instantly feeling relief in her parched throat."Thank you, Noel. You must be tired too. You should go home. I can manage here," Amora said sincerely.Noel's lips

    "Mr.Volker, I'm sorry, but I can't do that," Albert stammered, swallowing hard. He could see the anger radiating from the leader of the Golden Snake, but he couldn't quite understand the reason behind it.Hearing the commotion at the stern of the yacht, Mark Carter quickly approached and saw Alejandro intimidating his colleague."Damn it!" Alejandro growled, shoving Albert forcefully, making him stumble backward.Mark rushed forward, catching Albert before he could fall."Thanks, Mark," Albert exhaled in relief.Mark remained silent, his eyes shifting to Alejandro Volker, who was repeatedly tapping his cane against the helicopter pad, his frustration and disappointment evident.Summoning his courage, Mark approached the leader of the Golden Snake. "Mr. Volker, is there something wrong? This area is restricted. I must ask you to return inside," he said respectfully.Alejandro's sharp eyes narrowed at Mark, displeased by the audacity of his words. He knew his actions had drawn attention

    "What’s going on?"Several guests were startled when they saw a twin-engine helicopter landing on the helipad at the stern of the cruise ship.The helicopter was significantly larger than the usual models, as it was a multipurpose type. The ship's helipad was spacious enough to accommodate such an aircraft. This grand and luxurious vessel had been designed precisely to meet its owner's needs.The unexpected arrival of the helicopter added to the lively atmosphere at the bow of the ship. At that moment, many guests were enjoying the spectacular fireworks exploding beautifully in the distant night sky, set up to enhance the evening’s celebration.Noticing the helicopter, the guests lounging in the area began rushing toward the stern, eager to find out what was happening."Isn’t that the woman Young Master Lorenzo acknowledged earlier?" One of the guests remarked upon seeing Amora walking toward the helipad.This guest had witnessed Regis' declaration earlier and instantly recognized Amo

    Amora’s request was indeed bold. Though she never expected mercy from Diego, at this moment, she hoped Diego had at least a sliver of conscience to grant her request.Diego didn’t respond right away. He seemed to be deep in thought.“Father—” Regis was about to plead as well.But before he could continue, Diego cut him off and said, “Alright.”Amora’s face brightened. “Thank you, Mr. Lorenzo,” she said, slightly bowing.Regis clenched his fists tightly. He was frustrated, feeling powerless to stop his woman from lowering herself in front of his father. Instead of receiving approval or acknowledgment, she was forced to bow her head.Regis felt like he had failed to protect Amora as her husband. But for now, he didn’t want to escalate the situation.He ordered Albert to contact the necessary parties and arrange everything their son needed for the trip to the hospital.Not long after, Albert returned to the cabin, informing them that the helicopter was ready to land after receiving the o

    Albert had just stepped out of the cabin and was rushing to find James Ritter, but his steps halted when he crossed paths with Noel Ritter in the corridor.“Young Master Ritter, thank goodness I ran into you. Can you help my young master?” Albert pleaded hopefully.Without asking any questions, Noel immediately responded, “I was actually planning to offer my help to your young master’s son. Take me to him.”Without wasting any time, Albert led him to the cabin. Upon arrival, Regis immediately questioned Noel’s presence.“Where is Professor Ritter?” Regis asked Albert.Regis's face darkened as he stared at Albert, demanding an explanation for Noel's unexpected arrival.“My apologies, Sir,” Albert said, bowing his head. “I happened to run into Young Master Ritter outside, so I—”“Isn’t it the same whether you’re looking for me or my father, Regis? The important thing right now is checking on Ray,” Noel interrupted Albert, aware that Regis was still upset with him over what happened week

    Seeing Regis' disappointing attitude, Diego let out a harsh snort. Suddenly, Amora spoke up, drawing Diego’s attention to her."Mr. Lorenzo, it seems you don’t know how to judge your own son properly," Amora said, stepping in to defend her husband.Even though Diego Lorenzo was her father-in-law, Amora didn’t care. She thought his words toward Regis were too harsh. Regis had simply backed down to gain permission to change the ship's course, yet Diego saw that as unworthy behavior."What gives you the right to speak like that, Miss Lysander? I am his father, and I don’t think you have the place to talk to me this way," Diego replied, his tone filled with displeasure at Amora’s boldness.A sharp pain pierced Amora’s heart at his words. She knew Diego would never acknowledge her, even though she was Regis' legally wedded wife.Before she could respond, Diego cut in again. “I assume your son’s health hasn’t been like this just once or twice, has it?”His cold gaze shifted to Rayden before

    "I'm sorry, Regis. I ... I didn't know it would turn out like this."Xavier expressed his regret to Regis, acknowledging his carelessness in looking after Rayden. He never expected the boy's condition to be this fragile.Amora had warned him multiple times to ensure Rayden never got hurt. Xavier assumed a minor impact wouldn’t affect the boy much, but he never imagined it could turn out to be so serious.Regis let out a harsh breath. He couldn't entirely blame Xavier since accidents like this were unpredictable."Forget it, Xavier."Regis gave his friend a light pat on the shoulder. Though he wanted to hold Xavier accountable, he reconsidered. There was no point in blaming anyone—it had already happened.Not long after, Albert entered the cabin, looking visibly panicked."Where's the doctor, Albert?" Regis asked, noticing that Albert hadn’t brought the doctor he needed."Young Master, I’m sorry … I couldn’t find him in his on-call room."Albert Parker’s report darkened Regis’ expressi

    Ignoring the greetings from the other guests, Diego continued walking towards his son and the woman who had become the center of attention and the main headline at tonight’s Royal Dragon celebration.On his way to the hall, Diego had briefly heard about the young boy standing beside Regis. Xavier and Albert had no choice but to tell him what they knew.Now, standing before Regis and Amora, Diego examined the woman carefully.Amora forced a smile on her face. Even though she tried to present herself well, Diego’s overwhelming presence made her feel suffocated.Diego’s brow furrowed for a few seconds as if he had realized something, but he still didn’t say a word. Instead, he turned his sharp gaze back to his son.Amora gripped the crystal glass in her hands tightly. Her heart pounded wildly, waiting for Diego’s response. But unfortunately, he remained silent, only adding to her anxiety.Even though she had been trying to mask her worry with a smile, facing Diego Lorenzo directly made h

    “Young Master Lorenzo, congratulations on your new chapter in life. I was truly surprised to hear the news today, but I’m happy for you.”Regis gave a faint smile at the congratulatory words from one of his business partners. He had already received plenty of similar remarks from the guests attending the Royal Dragon event that evening.Of course, Regis knew these well-wishes were nothing more than a formality. Everyone simply wanted to maintain good relations with him, even if some disapproved of his choice of wife—especially the fact that he had a child out of wedlock with her. It was something none of them had expected."When will you be holding your wedding ceremony?" asked a young man from the Brooklyn family.Regis turned to Amora, who had been standing beside him the entire time. She was doing her best to carry herself properly, even though Regis had told her to just be herself.Still, Amora didn’t want to embarrass Regis. She could feel the judgmental stares from some of the g
