Chapter 85 - Her Only Hope Faded

2024-07-30 00:30:18“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

“Of course, only your wife or girlfriend has the right to ask that. It’s not appropriate for me to question things beyond my position as a guest here,” Amora stammered, her face slightly downcast.She intentionally broke eye contact with Regis because her answer sounded as if she were hiding jealousy, though Amora had no such intention.Amora tried to clarify their relationship with him, but her words and actions were hard to reconcile.Right now, Amora's heart was still racing from Regis's actions. His finger remained on her lips. This time, he lifted her chin so their eyes met again.Regis's lips curled into a small smile. He slowly moved closer to her face, causing Amora to shut her eyes tightly.She thought Regis was going to steal a kiss from her, but he only leaned in to whisper in her ear, leaving Amora feeling even more flustered.Regis smirked and sa

"Hey, Kid. We came here to celebrate your arrival. Could you at least appreciate me a little?" Gino quipped at Xavier, who was still engrossed in his laptop.The moment Gino called him "Kid," Xavier shot him a sharp glare. Even though he was much younger than the other two men, he refused to be underestimated. Not wanting to engage in an argument, Xavier simply ignored him.Gino let out a heavy sigh. Hearing about Xavier’s arrival from Regis yesterday, he’d been so excited. He caught the latest flight, even traveling from another continent, just to meet him. But now that he was here, he was being ignored."Why am I even friends with people like you two?" Gino grumbled, his face set in a look of exaggerated annoyance. Of course, he wasn’t serious. It was just his way of expressing frustration.Since the incident that had involved them in a case of theft and auction fraud, Gino had grown to admire both Regis and Xavier. When he found out Xavier was in London, he didn’t think twice about

Laughter echoed in the soundproof room, filling the space with an almost contagious energy. A man with ombre blue hair, reminiscent of ocean waves, held a wine glass in his hand as he strolled over to Regis.“If I hadn’t done that, I’m not sure I’d ever have the chance to meet someone as honorable as you, Your Highness,” he teased, a smirk playing on his lips.“Should I buy a lottery ticket today? I must be lucky if someone as busy as you managed to attend my invitation,” the man continued, slinging an arm around Regis’s shoulder as he guided him toward the plush seating area.Regis, however, brushed off the gesture and glared sharply at him. “I didn’t realize someone as carefree as you even existed. Maybe I should switch careers and become a gemstone tycoon instead of a mafia boss, Young Master Moonstone,” Regis shot back coldly.The stylish man from head to toe was none other than Gino Moonstone, heir to a renowned gemstone empire.One of the ten largest precious gemstone mines in t

Regis raked his hair in frustration. He quickly typed out a reply to his wife, his fingers moving fast across his phone screen.[Sorry, Amora. It’s not that I didn’t want to reply to your messages. The last one didn’t send. I’m doing fine now.]The message was sent in seconds, but waiting for her reply felt like an eternity. Growing impatient, Regis decided to call her.Unfortunately, Amora didn’t pick up.“Where could she be?” Regis muttered anxiously.He called again, and still no answer. Running out of options, Regis decided to call his son. Within moments, his son’s cheerful face popped up on the screen.“Hi, Dad!” Rayden waved with a big smile.Regis smiled back but skipped the pleasantries. “Ray, where’s your mom?”“Mom?” Rayden paused for a moment, his eyes darting around before he turned back to the camera.“I think she’s in the bedroom, Dad. Maybe she’s taking a shower,” Rayden said matter-of-factly.“Ah, I see.” Regis let out a relieved sigh. He’d thought she was mad at him

Mark was stunned. He shared the same thoughts as his boss, then said, “There’s information suggesting that Levent has recently been involved in human organ trafficking.”“Oh, really?” Regis raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued.“Apparently, Altan Demir himself is handling the transactions, and because of this, he’s been clashing with Murat Demir. It seems Murat doesn’t approve of Altan engaging in such dealings,” Mark added.Regis smirked cynically. He found Murat Demir’s anger justified, as Altan was straying far from the vision and mission Levent had upheld under the Demir family.Levent had always focused on providing illegal services rather than dealing with tangible goods like Altan did now.Regis was certain that Murat disliked Altan’s actions because Murat had always chosen to work behind the scenes. He could only imagine Murat’s frustration upon discovering Altan’s endeavors.“Is the operation still ongoing?” Regis asked with keen interest.“It seems so, Sir. Our informants ha

Royal Dragon Office Building“This is the report just sent by Manager Sunny, Sir.”Monica Grant handed over a document she had just received from the finance division to Regis. The woman, dressed in a pink blazer and matching pencil skirt, stood in front of Regis Lorenzo's desk with a nervous expression.Her gaze lingered on Regis cautiously, worried about making a mistake, though her boss had said nothing for several minutes.“Just leave it,” Regis replied indifferently.Monica obeyed and placed the document on his desk. Her eyes darted to a neatly arranged lunch box that remained untouched.She had ordered the exact meal Regis requested earlier that afternoon, yet he hadn’t eaten any of it. Her thoughts were interrupted when Regis suddenly looked up.“What is it?” Regis probed.“N-no, Sir. I was just worried you haven’t eaten anything all day,” Monica stammered nervously.Regis’s sharp eyes narrowed. He glanced briefly at the meal and muttered, “I’m not in the mood.”“But you should

“You’re not even seven yet. I don’t want you carrying such heavy burdens on your little shoulders, sweetheart. I don’t want you to regret the time you’ve missed out on, Ray,” Amora said earnestly.“I know, Mom. I’m only doing this to fill my free time,” Rayden replied. “But, can I continue the programming class later tonight, Mom?” he asked, looking for reassurance.Earlier, he had to ask the instructor for a break, interrupting the lesson. Now, he hoped his mom would allow him to resume the session later.Amora considered refusing, but when she saw the eagerness shining in her son’s eyes, she relented. “Alright, but just for an hour, okay?” she said.A wide smile spread across Rayden’s face. He hugged his mom tightly and gave her a kiss on the cheek.“Thank you, Mom. You’re the best in the world!” he exclaimed joyfully.Amora chuckled softly, her face lighting up with her son’s happiness. Memories of the past suddenly came rushing back—when she first discovered she was pregnant.She

“What’s this, Ray?”Amora pointed at a series of sentences she couldn’t understand. To her, they looked like some sort of cryptic code.Rayden sighed long and took his tablet back from his mom’s hands. “It’s not a dangerous website, Mom. And those aren’t random weird texts. It’s called Python, Mom,” he explained.“P-Python? You mean … like the snake?” Amora asked, her surprise growing.Rayden chuckled, amused by her reaction.“No, Mom. It’s a programming language. I just signed up for a free online class yesterday to learn it,” Rayden said, pointing to the site name on the screen.His explanation left Amora stunned. She rubbed her temples, taking a moment to calm herself before turning back to her son.“Ray, do you even understand this stuff?” Amora asked, still trying to process her son’s genius.Rayden sighed again. “Mom, I’ll understand it with time and practice. Don’t you trust me?”“It’s not that, Ray,” Amora replied quickly. “I’m just confused. Why choose something this complica

"A-a heart attack?"Amora was utterly shocked by her son's words. "Are you sure you heard that ... that Ben's mom had a heart attack?" she asked, seeking confirmation.Rayden nodded and briefly recounted what he had overheard earlier.Amora was silent for a moment. She didn't know what to say because what happened to Lisa was completely beyond her prediction. She just wanted to teach Lisa a valuable lesson by making her feel as bad and suffer the loss as she had in the past.Amora wanted Lisa to feel a deterrent for insulting her repeatedly and being arrogant in front of her so she was forced to look for Lisa's weaknesses and finally reported the John Brown embezzlement case.She didn't expect Lisa to experience another unfortunate thing.A pang of guilt crossed Amora's heart, but recalling Lisa's past behavior, she thought perhaps this was divine justice for all her wrongdoings.“Maybe this is a reprimand for her bad behavior,” Amora murmured.Rayden nodded. "Yeah, maybe. Bad people

After lunch, Albert Parker drove Amora and Rayden back to their penthouse. He parked the car in the building's parking lot and quickly opened the car door for them.Albert also helped Amora carry the shopping bags. Earlier, they had stopped by a supermarket to pick up a few essentials she needed.He halted his steps when Amora said, “You can leave us here, Mr. Parker. We can go up by ourselves.”They were now standing in front of the elevator leading to the penthouse. However, Albert insisted on accompanying them into the elevator.“I need to ensure your safety until you’re inside the penthouse, Ma’am. This is a direct order from the young master. Please cooperate,” Albert explained, requesting her understanding of his duty.Reluctantly, Amora allowed him to accompany them. As promised, Albert only escorted them to the penthouse door and placed the shopping bags on the terrace.“Thank you for driving us, Mr. Parker,” Amora said as Albert prepared to leave.“Should you need anything, d
