She maintained a radiant smile, nodding her thanks while scanning the room.Chelsea was elated. Today marked a pivotal moment that would change her life forever.As the newly recognized fiancée of the Rowan family's heir, her status would elevate, and everyone would treat her with even greater respect."Do you see her, Glo?"

Amora’s hazel eyes widened in shock as she stared at Noel, who was smiling sweetly at her. She wanted to deny everything, but doing so would label Estelle as a liar and humiliate Noel.Her eyes scanned the room nervously. She was deeply worried that some press member might capture this moment between her and Noel. Yet, she had no choice but to play along with Noel’s act.Hearing Noel’s direct confession, Gloria felt like a fool standing in that ballroom. When her parents introduced her to a competent and handsome potential fiancé like Noel, she had already developed feelings for him and eagerly anticipated meeting him today.But she had never imagined that her hopes would be crushed before they could even take flight.“Why are you still going through with this arrangement if you already have a girlfriend?” Gloria asked, her voice trembling.“I’m sorry, Miss Barclay. I can’t go against my father’s wishes,” Noel replied apologetically.Then, with a gentle look at Amora, he continued, “I

“Estelle.”A man’s voice drew Amora and Estelle’s attention. A stylish figure with wavy hair dyed in blue ombre strode toward them, exuding confidence.Amora frowned slightly, impressed by the man’s radiant smile. His appearance stood out—he was wearing a striking silver suit that was impossible to miss.“Gino!” Estelle greeted him excitedly, embracing the man, who returned the gesture with a light kiss.“He’s… your husband?” Amora asked, barely hiding her disbelief at Estelle’s rather “unique” taste in men.“That’s right,” Estelle confirmed proudly, quickly introducing her husband to Amora.“Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Moonstone,” Amora said, shaking Gino’s outstretched hand.“The pleasure’s mine. Estelle’s told me so much about you,” Gino replied warmly.Amora found herself slightly reassessing Estelle’s judgment. Gino Moonstone radiated positive energy—completely unlike Regis, whose stoic demeanor often intimidated those who didn’t know him well.“Really? You’re exaggerating, Mr. Moo

"Is there no way to get through this mess, Mark?"Regis's cold and commanding voice sent Mark's heart racing.Traffic was at a standstill in front of them. A truck had veered into the wrong lane, stalling out and blocking the road entirely.The blaring honks from cars, including the one Mark was driving, only added to the chaos."I'm sorry, Young Master. It seems impossible," Mark replied, glancing at the surrounding lanes jam-packed with vehicles. Their car was stuck in the middle lane, wedged tightly between two others.Regis didn't respond, but his silence spoke volumes.Mark's face showed a mix of anxiety and frustration. He and his boss, Regis Lorenzo, had just returned to New York a mere thirty minutes ago after an intense, non-stop work trip that had drained them both physically and mentally.Eager to see Amora as soon as possible, Regis had rushed through all his meetings in Las Vegas. They were originally scheduled to return tomorrow, but last night, Albert informed Regis via

"Just name the price, or if necessary, I’ll leave my ID as collateral," Mark said, still trying to convince the girl.Mark could’ve asked another rider for help, but borrowing from someone he knew made him feel more at ease.Biana didn’t respond and pretended not to hear his request. She turned her head away indifferently, started her motorbike, and prepared to leave. But before she could, Mark quickly said, "This involves your best friend, too."The girl’s head snapped toward him in panic. “What happened to Amora?”“It’s a long story. I need to catch up with my boss right now,” Mark replied, gesturing for Biana to get off her bike as he handed her a few bills.Biana hesitated, still doubting his brief explanation and suspecting that Mark might be lying again.‘Hah! Does he think I’ll fall for it again?’ Biana grumbled internally."Miss? Is this not enough?" Mark asked impatiently, feeling the pressure of time. But Biana stayed silent, ignoring his request. Finally, Mark decided to lo

Amora turned and found Noel already standing in front of her.“Where are you going, Amora?” Noel asked.Amora gave an awkward smile, her eyes darting to Chris, who hesitated to approach her since Noel had reached her first.“I-I was… looking for you,” Amora lied reluctantly. She silently cursed her luck for being caught in such a complicated situation.‘What kind of day is this?’ Amora grumbled inwardly, letting out a subtle, frustrated sigh.“Amora?” Noel called her again, looking at her in confusion.“Yes?” Amora quickly looked up and met his gaze.She froze in surprise when Noel extended his hand to her. “Would you dance with me, Amora?” he asked, leaving her stunned.“Noel, I … I’m not very good at dancing,” Amora replied, trying to decline politely.“Don’t be so modest. I know you can dance well. Have you forgotten we used to practice together?” Noel teased, chuckling as he reminisced about their childhood.Amora smiled nervously. “But .…”Amora was about to refuse again when she

“Look at you ... You’re so good at dancing. Who said they couldn’t dance earlier, hmm?”Noel teased Amora with a playful smile as he guided her steps in the dance. Their movements matched perfectly with the soft melody of the piano filling the air.“Well, it’s been so long since I last danced. It’s natural for me to feel unsure,” Amora replied, trying to justify herself.A warm smile lingered on Noel’s lips. From the corner of his eye, he noticed the admiring gazes of others directed at him, but he paid them no mind.At this moment, he focused entirely on the woman who had captured his heart long ago. The closeness between them, their hands lightly touching, made Noel’s heart race.Still, Noel managed to keep his composure, savoring the rare moment. Amora, on the other hand, appeared visibly nervous.She occasionally returned his gaze and gave him shy, awkward smiles before quickly lowering her eyes again. Amora’s left hand rested on his right shoulder, while her right hand was gently

"Don't worry, Ma'am. Everything has been taken care of."A tall, bulky man with a bald head and a sinister grin was on the phone, speaking to someone. His narrow eyes kept watch over a young woman lying unconscious in the back of his box truck.The man stood in the basement parking lot, a desolate area designated for delivery vehicles."Relax, Ma'am. This woman will stay out cold for at least another two or three hours," the bald man reassured.The woman he referred to was none other than Amora Lysander, wife of Regis Lorenzo. She had been drugged with chloroform when the man had covered her mouth earlier.This man was a hired hand working for Julia Brown. To ensure Chelsea's engagement to the Rowan family’s heir went smoothly, Julia had arranged for Amora to be temporarily kidnapped until the event was over.After drugging Amora, the man discreetly transported her via the freight elevator to the basement parking lot."Yes, I gagged her and tied her hands and feet.

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

"Ray, look over there!"Kimmy exclaimed excitedly as they entered the playground area inside the cruise ship. She and Rayden were currently exploring every room on the ship."Whoa! This place is like a real treasure trove!" Kimmy exclaimed again.The little girl couldn't stop admiring everything she saw. Rayden could only shake his head at her enthusiasm."Come on, Ray. Let's play over there." Kimmy pointed to the bumper car area within the playground."What's so exciting about that, Kimmy? Haven't you played it plenty of times in other playgrounds? I don't see how this one's any different," Rayden remarked indifferently.Albert hid a smile. The little young master's flat tone and cool demeanor reminded him of Regis Lorenzo."Seriously, kid? Can't you just go along with it?" Xavier scoffed, ruffling the hair of Regis' son.Kimmy's face soured at Rayden's dismissive response."I’m just telling the truth," Rayden said, completely unaware that he had upset her. Kimmy let out an annoyed h

"I didn't hear wrong, did I? What did he just say? Daddy? That boy is Young Master Lorenzo’s son?"Rumors spread like wildfire as whispers filled the air. Camera flashes went off relentlessly, capturing the biggest scandal of the night."You can go, but only if Xavier and Albert go with you," Regis responded to his son's request.A small smile spread across Rayden’s lips, revealing his adorable baby teeth. Liliana was stunned. The boy’s face reminded her of Regis when he was little."Alright then, I’m going now, Dad," Rayden said cheerfully as he rushed toward Kimmy. The little girl had been waiting for him beyond the crowd, standing beside her parents. Xavier and Albert were already on high alert, ensuring Rayden’s safety."Young Master Lorenzo, is that boy really your son?" One of the guests, a close relative of the Lorenzo family, gathered the courage to ask.Just like before, Regis openly acknowledged Amora and Rayden’s status to the public. He had no intention of hiding anything,

Meanwhile, inside the banquet hall, a commotion erupted, shocking the guests, the entire Lorenzo family, and the top executives of Royal Dragon.The music came to an abrupt stop, replaced by hushed murmurs spreading throughout the room. Conversations buzzed as all eyes turned toward Regis, who had just entered the hall with a young woman—none other than his wife, Amora Lysander.The media crew, permitted to cover the celebration inside the hall, rushed to capture the moment, eager to turn it into tomorrow’s headline.“Oh, My God. Didn't I see something wrong? Is Young Master Lorenzo… smiling?”One of the guests exclaimed loudly, drawing everyone’s attention. But as much as they wanted to dismiss it, they couldn’t deny the truth—they were just as shocked to see the rare sight of a smile gracing Regis’ lips.A smile that was almost unheard of since Regis rarely displayed it in public. And yet, here he was, looking at the woman by his side with an unmistakable gaze of affection.“I must

Alejandro scoffed. “You're trying to dodge again, Diego. I know you have the power to clear all the accusations against your son and turn the media in your favor. But I won’t forget the blood debt that you and your son still owe me,” he hissed.Diego felt no fear in the face of Alejandro’s threat—not because he thought Alejandro wouldn’t dare act on it, but because he was confident that both he and Regis could handle anything that came their way.More importantly, there was something Alejandro didn’t know, and Diego intended to reveal it now.Maintaining his indifferent attitude toward the hostility of the Golden Snake’s leader, Diego said, “Alejandro, I won’t make excuses for our past. But I strongly suggest you let go of your grudge—before it ends up choking you instead.”Alejandro let out a bitter laugh. “Let go of my grudge? Don’t be naive, Diego.”Diego responded with nothing but a smirk.“Don’t tell me you’re actually scared that I might do the same thing to someone you care abo

Murat's lips curled into a cynical smirk, followed by a low chuckle escaping from his mouth."Looks like you have no idea that Diego’s son orchestrated everything."The statement that left Murat’s lips made Alejandro’s expression shift. A flicker of anger flashed in his sharp, hazel eyes.Before Alejandro could respond to Murat Demir’s words, the cabin door suddenly swung open, revealing the person they had been waiting for.Diego Lorenzo stepped into the suite stateroom and took a seat on the sofa between his two guests. He glanced between them, immediately sensing the tension in the room."Did I come at a bad time?"Diego’s deep voice drew both Alejandro and Murat’s attention to him. There was no trace of warmth in their gazes as if Diego had just done something unpleasant to them.“Was the hospitality not to your liking?” Diego quipped, attempting to ease the tension. A faint chuckle, more of a formality than genuine amusement, escaped the lips of the Royal Dragon leader.However,
