Amora's thoughts raced as she scowled internally. 'What’s he planning now? He better not ask for something weird, 'she mused, her eyes narrowing at Regis suspiciously.

The subtle shift in Regis's expression revealed everything. His irritation toward Albert gradually faded, replaced by an idea—he saw an opportunity to make Amora owe him.

“Well?” Regis prompted again when his wife didn’t respond.

“What kind of reward are you thinking of?” Amora probed, her lips pursed.

“Would you really grant it if I told you?” Regis challenged, making her feel even more wary.

Amora knew Regis was scheming. Yet, with Albert and the others' lives potentially in grave danger, she didn’t have the luxury to deliberate long. Her immediate instinct was to ensure their safety, even if it meant taking a risk.

“Of course, as long as you fulfill my request,” Amora replied, keeping her tone steady.

She trusted that Regis wouldn’t demand anything harmful or malicious—not after his heartfelt confession the night bef

    A wide smile lingered on Regis' lips as he parked his car at his penthouse. He could barely contain his excitement to see the woman he adored. Even though the sky had only just turned orange, he was already home earlier than usual."Good afternoon, Young Master Lorenzo," One of his subordinates patrolling the parking area greeted him."Afternoon," Regis replied, making his subordinate's face twisted in shock.Why wouldn't he be surprised? Regis was usually indifferent to every one.The unexpected friendliness made his subordinate doubt whether he had mistaken him for someone else. But upon seeing the sharp glint in Regis' eyes, the man’s courage immediately faltered.Regis cleared his throat softly. He realized his expression was a bit excessive, but it was hard for him to suppress his happiness. He was sure Amora would be surprised to see him since he hadn’t told her he’d be home earlier than usual.He walked into the elevator, his arms full of gifts he'd picked up on his way back.T

    Mark’s face turned pale. He could see the flash of anger in his boss's eyes. "It’s not like that, Sir. I just—"“Sorry, Regis. I thought he could help me finish things faster, and I needed a strong man to knead the dough,” Amora explained, unaware that Regis was feeling jealous of Mark.“So, you needed a man’s strength?” Regis murmured, which Amora answered with a small nod.Without saying much, Regis handed Amora the box of pastries and the bouquet he was carrying.“I-is this for me?” Amora asked in confusion.Regis didn’t answer. Instead, he turned to Mark. "Take off your apron."Mark hurriedly removed his apron and handed it to Regis.Amora, puzzled, asked, “What are you doing, Regis?”“Proving that I’m also a man, of course. You can squeeze all the strength you need out of me,” Regis replied as he put on the apron after removing his jacket.Amora was dumbfounded. "B-but, Regis... I—"Before she could finish, hearty laughter echoed throughout the room. Xavier was the source of the

    After stepping into the kitchen, Amora hurriedly placed the box of pastries she'd brought into the fridge."Is there anything I can help with?" Regis asked as he scanned the kitchen."Are you sure you want to help?" Amora asked doubtfully. Honestly, she would rather he not be there, worried he'd just end up making a mess."Of course." Regis had already rolled up his sleeves to his elbows, looking determined.Seeing his enthusiasm, Amora reluctantly decided to let him prove his capabilities.She removed the plastic wrap from the dough Mark had prepared earlier and showed Regis how to cut the flattened dough into even strips for fettuccine."That's it?" Regis asked, clearly disappointed. He had hoped to put his strength to good use and show off his skills."Yes, just be quick and precise. We don't have much time," Amora instructed before turning to prepare toppings for the pizza she would soon assemble.Though messy at first, Regis quickly got the hang of cutting the dough properly.

    "Mom, I'm taking Kimmy for a tour around the place," Rayden said as he approached his mother.The boy had just finished his meal and wanted to show Kimmy Moonstone, his classmate and Estelle’s daughter, around their current residence."Alright. Take good care of Kimmy, okay?" Amora reminded him before her son left the dining room."I can't believe Ray, the boy Kimmy talks about every day, is your son, Amora," Estelle said, smiling after the children were out of sight."I had no idea either! No wonder Kimmy's face looked familiar. Her smile is just like yours," Amora responded as she took a bite of her pasta."I’m shocked too. Turns out my biggest competition is your son, Regis," Gino added with a playful grin.For a long time, Gino had tried to win the heart of his wife’s daughter. But ever since Kimmy started school, she would come home talking about a certain boy, instantly dethroning Gino in her little heart."You're jealous of a little kid? Seriously?" Estelle teased, pinching her

    “What the heck, guys? I-I wasn’t serious about getting married anytime soon. I was just joking. Don’t take it so seriously, okay?”Biana tried to lighten the mood ruined by Xavier's teasing while showing that she was unfazed by the banter from her colleagues. However, she hadn’t expected Xavier to reject the idea before she even got a chance to respond.Biana’s gaze landed on Mark, who was still laughing. She shot him a sharp glare.“And what are you laughing at, Mr. Carter? Have you forgotten you're single too? You should be more worried—you’re not getting any younger. Unlike me, who still has plenty of time to be picky,” Biana retorted, unintentionally taking a jab at Regis's assistant.Biana had tried hard not to lash out at Mark. She hadn't even expected him to be at the dinner tonight. If she'd known, she would have skipped it altogether.Biana couldn't forget how Mark left her stranded in the parking lot last night after they shared a ride.Despite giving him a lift to his desti

    "Playing? This looks more like getting drunk?" Biana blurted, frowning at the small glasses lined up before her.Estelle wagged her finger. "Nope! This isn't about getting drunk. We're playing truth or dare.""Wait, where are you going? I haven't explained the rules yet," Estelle protested when Xavier stood up and walked away."I'm not playing. I'm going to check on Ray and Kimmy," Xavier said, waving as he walked off. Of course, he was just looking for an excuse to escape the game. He bolted before Estelle could stop him."Coward," Estelle muttered, pouting. She called out to Xavier, "Fine! But take care of the kids, okay?"Xavier gave her a thumbs-up as he walked away."I-I'll go too. I can help him watch the kids," Biana said, standing up.But Estelle grabbed her arm. "Oh no, Bia. You and Mark are the main characters of this game." A sly smile crept across Estelle's face.Amora sighed quietly, already guessing Estelle's true intentions—to dig up information about Biana's relationsh

    “W-what do you choose, Amora? Truth or dare?” Estelle asked nervously as Amora kept staring daggers at her.“I choose ...,” Amora sighed long before continuing, “truth.”“So ... what's your answer?” Regis pressed eagerly, clearly impatient to hear his wife's response.Amora didn’t really want to answer. Giving an answer felt like admitting something she wasn’t ready to say out loud. But she knew she couldn’t dodge the question forever.“I ... I prefer your kisses,” Amora confessed, her voice barely a whisper.“Wow!”Estelle squealed and jumped up and down in excitement. In her enthusiasm, she accidentally strangled her husband, Gino, who flailed until she quickly let go.“Sorry, Honey! I just got carried away because I'm happy to hear that Amora has really moved on!” Estelle beamed at Gino, clearly thinking Amora was still hung up on Chris Walden.Amora’s face turned bright red like a ripe tomato. “B-but this doesn’t mean I’m giving you the answer you wanted back then, Regis.”Regis's

    "Amora, you're drunk," Regis said, turning his face away from his wife.Regis was trying his best to control the wild storm raging inside him, but Amora only tightened her arms around his neck, pulling their bodies even closer.The bar stool Amora was sitting on was tall enough that her height now matched Regis, who was standing in front of her."Amora, you should go wash your face. I think you've had too much to drink," Regis suggested, hoping she wouldn't notice how hard his heart was pounding."I'm not drunk. Who said I was drunk? You're the one who's drunk," Amora muttered, slurring her words. She slapped his shoulder repeatedly, annoyed by his constant accusations.Tilting her head slightly, Amora cupped his face and added, "Why do you have two faces, Regis? Since when did you become two-faced, huh?"Regis sighed, exhausted. "That’s a sign you’re drunk, my love. Come on, let’s go to the room," he urged, trying to lead her away.But Amora shook her head vehemently. "No! I don’t wa

    Regis held back a smile and murmured, “Alright, I’ll try to control myself.”Amora’s lips curved into a nervous smile. Regis’s dark eyes locked onto hers as if seeing straight into her heart, making it pound wildly. The charisma radiating from him made her feel immensely proud to stand by his side.Amora gasped when she noticed the shift in Regis’s gaze. His dark eyes slowly trailed downward, tracing the curves of her body.Sensing an internal alarm going off, Amora quickly broke eye contact and spun around.“I think it’s time for us to leave now, Regis,” she said, trying to change the subject.“Wait a moment.” Regis grabbed Amora's wrist gently before adding, “I have a gift for you, darling.”Without warning, he pulled out a silver velvet jewelry box from his accessory drawer.Amora’s lips parted in shock. She had no idea he had prepared such a surprise.“Th-this is for me?” she stammered in awe as she opened the box.Inside was a stunning jewelry set— a necklace, a pair of rings, a

    Amora bit back a smile and gently patted Regis’s hand as it wandered playfully up her body."Don’t you think you’re being childish, Regis?" she huffed, annoyed by her husband’s earlier antics that had made things harder for her.Regis didn’t respond. Instead, he studied Amora’s reflection in the tall mirror before them. The mirror perfectly captured the stunning curves of his wife’s body, wrapped in a shimmering black evening gown adorned with rose gold sequins that formed a phoenix tail. She looked absolutely breathtaking.The backless gown she wore only amplified her beauty, making it impossible for Regis to take his eyes off her. The deep neckline, accentuating her full chest, sent a rush of desire surging through him.Slowly, Regis pressed a lingering kiss to the curve of her neck, inhaling her sweet scent that made his heart race even faster.“Regis, please don’t mess up my makeup. I spent a lot of time making sure I look perfect tonight,” Amora warned, quickly dodging when she s

    “Mom, you look so beautiful.”Rayden’s sweet compliment slipped from his lips as he admired his mother, who had just finished getting ready. Amora wore an elegant gown that left him completely mesmerized.Tonight was Royal Dragon’s anniversary celebration, where Regis would officially introduce Amora and Rayden to the public for the first time. Amora had put in extra effort to look her best, not wanting to embarrass Regis.Truthfully, Amora was incredibly nervous, even though she had done everything she could to prepare. She worried about how people would perceive her, despite Regis reassuring her countless times that she had nothing to be concerned about.“Mom, you’re the most beautiful angel I’ve ever seen,” Rayden said, offering yet another compliment.A wide smile spread across Amora's lips. She cupped her son’s face, noting how handsome he looked tonight. Dressed in a luxurious tuxedo with his neatly combed-back hair, her little boy looked like a young prince, capable of charming

    “Come here, Amora. I just want to hold you for a moment,” Regis said with a pleading expression. “I need to recharge my energy by hugging you.”“You’re so spoiled,” Amora muttered, but she still gave in and let her husband wrap his arms around her.It never crossed her mind that Regis wanted more than just a simple embrace.“We still have a little time to finish what we started earlier, don’t we?” Regis whispered, making Amora freeze in place, her cheeks turning warm.Her mind flashed back to that moment in the walk-in closet earlier that morning—when Regis had stolen a deep, lingering kiss as she was getting dressed. It had left her breathless, almost making her lose control … until Rayden’s sudden call had interrupted them.“Regis, this is your office,” Amora reminded him, trying to keep her voice steady.“So what?” Regis replied, his tone playful. “Doesn’t that just make it more exciting? I’ve imagined us together in this room for a long time.”His bold confession sent heat rushing

    “You—you heard that just now, didn’t you, Regis? She called me ‘Sister-in-law,’ didn’t she?” Amora asked, still in disbelief over what she had just heard.Amora couldn’t deny that she had managed to get Alicia to acknowledge her presence.“Yes, I heard it. You’re amazing, Amora,” Regis praised her, gently patting the top of her head, and making her turn back to look at him.“I’m not that amazing, Regis. I just felt like she needed a little attention from the people around her,” Amora said, explaining her observation of Alicia.Regis paused. He admitted that his and his father’s constant busyness had made Alicia grow into a strong-willed and difficult-to-control young woman.“You’re right, Amora. That girl has been spoiled too much by me and everyone else. But I didn’t expect you to get her to acknowledge you and even open up like that,” Regis said, impressed.“Was it really that hard?” Amora chuckled lightly. She didn’t think she had done anything special.“Maybe only women can truly

    "Does that mean he almost did something to you, Alicia?" Amora probed, making Alicia glance at her briefly before continuing her meal.'Damn it!' Alicia cursed inwardly.She had answered without thinking. She hadn’t realized she was being interrogated by Amora."So, did that bastard manage to lay a hand on you or not, Alicia?" Amora pressed again.Seeing the concern written all over Amora’s face, Alicia could tell that she wasn’t just pretending to be worried to get a reaction. Her sister-in-law seemed genuinely concerned.Just as Regis was about to say something, Amora reached out to stop him. She shot him a look, signaling for him to stay out of the conversation for now.Regis was already fuming at what he had heard. He couldn’t believe someone had dared to touch Alicia. As her older brother, there was no way he would stand by and let his sister suffer any kind of harassment.But even though he was furious, Regis let Amora take the lead. He wanted to see just how much his wife could

    "Sit down." Amora's voice snapped Alicia out of her thoughts.Even though she was still reluctant to accept Amora as her sister-in-law, Alicia figured she might actually be useful to her."I want to hear your exciting story. It sounds interesting," Amora said, doubling Alicia's surprise.Alicia had expected Amora to enjoy seeing her get scolded by her brother, but strangely enough, it now felt like Amora was on her side.‘She’s such a weird woman!’ Alicia thought, unable to figure out her sister-in-law's way of thinking."I don't think you need to hear it, my dear wife. You’d probably be shocked if you knew what kind of chaos she caused at school today," Regis said with a smirk, his eyes briefly glancing at his sister."She must be here now to ask for my help cleaning up her mess," Regis added."I'm not," Alicia muttered with a pout."Yeah, sure," Regis scoffed, making Alicia's frown deepen.Amora looked back and forth between the siblings. She could tell Regis cared deeply for his si

    Regis ordered his secretary to leave the room, then invited Amora to sit inside his office's lounge area.Seeing the delicious food and drinks set for their lunch today, Amora thought the man must have been looking forward to this meal. Unfortunately, Alicia’s unexpected arrival threw everything off."Wow, are you celebrating something, Big Bro?" Alicia blurted out, clearly surprised by the luxurious spread before her.Just as she was about to settle onto the couch across from Amora, her brother abruptly stopped her movement."Who gave you permission to sit?" Regis snapped."Brother .…"Alicia’s voice turned soft and whiny, her lips forming a small pout. However, her usual tricks had no effect on Regis. He remained expressionless, completely unfazed by her act.Alicia’s gaze flickered toward the tempting food, her stomach growling at the sight. She hadn’t been eating breakfast properly for the past few days—not because the family chef failed to prepare it, but because the atmosphere a

    Amora glanced at Alicia briefly. She could see the worry in her husband's younger sister's eyes. The girl looked anxious about the question Regis had asked Amora. Secretly, Amora held back a smile."Just say it, Amora. No need to worry," Regis urged, still interrogating her. His instincts told him there was no way Alicia had done nothing to his wife.Based on what he knew about Alicia, she always caused some kind of trouble every day. Even though their father’s guards had been keeping a close eye on her lately, today she had finally been freed from her punishment. Regis was convinced that his sister had already done something to Amora."Did she say something rude to you?" Regis guessed, making Alicia even more anxious.Alicia thought she had already lost the battle. Her brother clearly wasn’t on her side. She could only curse him in her heart.She assumed Amora would complain to Regis about how she had accused her of being a thief or an intruder, along with all the mischief she had ca
