Amora's eyes widened. She looked at Hilde with confusion.

"What do you mean, Hilde? Don't talk nonsense! When did I ever do that?" Amora retorted, equally fiercely.

She was starting to get angry, thinking Hilde was making up statements to tarnish her reputation.

Hilde's lips curled into a sneer. "Why? Do you forget falling down the stairs and I was accused of being the perpetrator?"

Amora gasped. She recalled the incident that happened many years ago.

Amora had indeed fallen down the school stairs, resulting in a broken ankle and needing hospital treatment.

For almost a week, Amora didn't attend school, and when she returned, she only heard that Hilde had transferred to another school. However, she never suspected that the reason Hilde transferred was related to her small accident!

"Why would you say that? What's the connection between my

    “I'm sorry, Hilde. I really had no idea you went through something so tough back then,” said Amora with deep sympathy.She sincerely apologized from the bottom of her heart for the events Hilde had experienced several years ago.Even though Amora knew her apology was very late, she felt it was necessary.Hilde cleared her throat softly. She felt a bit awkward because she didn't expect Amora to acknowledge the mistake she had denied some time ago.“Do you think apologizing will make any difference?” Hilde said nervously. She found Amora's sudden friendliness strange.Amora smiled softly. “I know it won't change anything, but I hope you can accept it. And if you really want to do something, I guess you now have the upper hand since you have everything. Isn't that right, Hilde Maven?”“Don't call me by that family name a

    "All your organs seem to be in good condition. But you should pay more attention to your diet, Regis. Your stomach acid levels are quite high. So, watch your eating habits and get to bed earlier every night."James Ritter—the Lorenzo family’s personal doctor—explained the results of Regis's full-body medical check-up from a few days ago.James noted some important points in Regis’s patient records, and then prescribed for him to pick up at the pharmacy."This is a prescription for stomach medication you can take if you feel your stomach isn't doing well. I’m also giving you additional vitamins you should take regularly. It's best if you take them consistently."Regis sighed deeply upon hearing the usual long lecture from his personal doctor."I know, Professor Ritter," Regis replied indifferently.James gave a slight smile. "You really haven't

    Regis had just left James Ritter’s office. He walked down the corridor towards the elevator. But his steps halted when he saw the woman he had been looking for.Amora Lysander stood in front of the elevator with a gloomy face. She seemed deep in thought, not noticing Regis now standing beside her."Ahem!" Regis cleared his throat softly to get her attention.But Amora remained still, her head bowed as she looked at the old phone in her hand.Regis glanced at her with his sharp eyes, a slight smile curling on his lips. “Amora Lysander,” he called.Reflexively, Amora looked up, raising her hand and exclaiming, “Yes!”“Pfftt!”Regis struggled to hold back his laughter at Amora’s silly reaction. He hadn’t expected her to be so startled by his call.Amora’s eyes m

    "You can call me if you need help taking care of Mrs. Adams, Henry. I'll help you as much as I can."Amora made this promise to Emma's son before she left with Rayden. She couldn't leave without feeling responsible. They were outside Emma’s hospital room.Hilde stood next to Henry with a sharp look, but she said nothing. Amora ignored her, knowing that Hilde disliked her presence there.Even though they had resolved their misunderstanding, Hilde still couldn’t let go of her anger and hatred toward Amora. It wasn’t easy for her to forget those bad memories.Amora also didn’t want to prolong her conflict with Hilde. She decided to act normally.Right now, Amora’s main concern was Emma’s condition. Even though she couldn’t help financially, she was sincere in offering her assistance to take care of Emma.That’s wha

    "Why are you still here, Uncle?" Rayden asked with curiosity and a hint of worry in his voice.Regis was pleased with the boy's response."I'm waiting for you," Regis replied, glancing at Amora, who still looked upset.Rayden's eyes widened in disbelief at the answer.On the other hand, Amora shot a sharp look at Regis. "Didn't you say you'd wait in the lobby? I thought you'd changed your mind," she said coldly.Regis let out a small chuckle. He could sense the annoyance in the woman's voice towards him. However, this only made her more intriguing to him."I was looking for you upstairs. I thought you’d take a while, but you came down first. We just missed each other."Hearing Regis's explanation, Rayden turned to his mother, seemingly asking about what had happened without his knowledge.Amora cleared her throa

    "Wow! Are we really staying here tonight, Mom?"Rayden exclaimed in awe at the sight before him. He had just stepped out of the taxi with his mother and his superhero uncle.They were standing in front of a towering skyscraper, glowing with beautiful lights. This tall building was the most elite five-star hotel in New York City.It was Rayden's first time stepping into such a grand building, filled with high-class interiors and decorations. The floor beneath him was so shiny that he feared his worn-out shoes might dirty it."Mom." Rayden tugged at his mother's sleeve.Amora turned to him. She could see the worry in her son's eyes. For them, coming to such a luxurious place felt overwhelming.Although Amora had visited this hotel several times before, it was always for important events with her socialite friends or accompanying Chris, her former fiancé.

    Amora didn't answer. She hurried to catch up with Rayden, pretending not to hear Regis's words.In her heart, Amora couldn't deny that she was happy to receive such luxurious accommodations. Especially seeing Rayden so excited because it was a new experience for him.However, Amora didn't want to get carried away with luxury that wasn't hers. She thought about finding a new place to live as soon as possible tomorrow so that Rayden wouldn't get too attached and spoiled by 'luxury' and 'power.'Regis quickly followed them into the grand building. The two guards at the door immediately straightened up to greet Regis.Two receptionists, a woman and a man, standing at the front desk, also greeted Regis and gave him a small nod as a sign of respect.Regis returned their nod with a slight one, then approached Rayden, who was exploring the spacious hotel lobby.The t

    “Um... I think it's because you have children's slippers in your shoe rack, Sir Lorenzo."Amora quickly explained her son's thoughts. She didn't want any misunderstandings between them.Regis raised his eyebrows. He paused for three seconds, then chuckled. "So that's why," he murmured."Please forgive Ray, Sir. I hope you don't take it to heart. He's probably just curious," Amora said, trying to defend her son. She was worried Regis might be offended by Rayden's words.Regis's laughter slowly stopped. He looked at Rayden, who was waiting for an answer, then turned his gaze to Amora.She seemed awkward and chose to help Rayden put his shoes into the shoe rack.Regis smiled slightly. He followed Amora's movements and then said, "You don't need to apologize, Amora. There's nothing wrong with Ray's question."Regis looked at Rayden, who

    "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

    "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,
