Unable to return to the city as the sky grew dark and started raining, Jade had no choice but to spend the night at the club.

She and Caelan enjoyed the rain and chatted, their intimacy drawing envy from those around them. Amidst these gazes, however, was a hateful glare directed straight at Jade.

Giselle hadn't expected to encounter Jade at the restaurant, let alone find her still together with Caelan. The closer they seemed, the more she detested Jade. The thought of Jade humiliating her at the field made her wish to tear Jade to pieces.

"Sweetie, what are you thinking about?" Damien asked affectionately.

Giselle glanced beside her at Damien with disgust, finding him increasingly unsatisfactory compared to Caelan. Damien was like a fish in a bowl.

"Let's break up," Giselle impatiently declared.

Damien panicked. "What's wrong, baby? Haven't I treated you well? I'd do anything for you."

Giselle looked at Damien's fawning face and then glanced at Jade in the distance. Suddenly, h

    Caelan's gaze settled on the wine glass, growing cold and piercing. Yet, due to the drug's effects, it lacked its usual sharpness, appearing dazed and feverish instead."Something's wrong with the wine." Caelan realized the severity of the situation and rushed into the bathroom to wash his face with cold water.As the icy water splashed on his face, it took away some of the heat.The potency of the drug caught Caelan off guard. Despite taking just a small sip, its effects were unmistakable. If this continued, he feared losing control.Maintaining a semblance of clarity, he promptly summoned room service. "Get a doctor here immediately."Room service arrived promptly, the attendant entering with a lowered head. Seeing Caelan reclining on the sofa, the attendant smirked triumphantly."Where's the doctor?" Caelan asked, slightly annoyed, as she stood in front of him without moving.The attendant removed her hat, letting her hair fall freely as she approached Caelan, hands reaching

    Caelan deduced from Giselle's words that Jade was secretly meeting with another man. He knew Jade's character well—she wasn't that kind of woman.However, Giselle's arrogant demeanor didn't suggest she was lying either."If something happens to her, I won't spare you," Caelan warned before releasing Giselle and stumbling out.As he departed, Giselle's face twisted into a mocking smile.'Aren't you worried about that woman? The more you fret over her, the more I'll destroy her. What I can't have, she won't either,' she thought. 'Jade, don't blame me for being ruthless. You shouldn't have pursued a man you shouldn't be pursuing.'A sense of gratifying revenge surged within Giselle. She straightened her disheveled clothes and exited the room as if nothing had transpired.Seducing Caelan had proven futile, so she had only pretended to seduce him to reveal Jade's true nature. Yet, there lingered a glimmer of hope that if Caelan accepted her, she could achieve two goals at once.…Ca

    Giselle turned pale, still shaken from Caelan's earlier attempt to choke her. The fear of imminent death lingered as she nodded frantically. "Yes, you're right. We need to leave here quickly, preferably go abroad for a while."The two hastily packed their belongings and fled overnight.…The next morning, Caelan awoke in an unfamiliar room, feeling disoriented. His head throbbed, and weakness gripped his body.Supporting himself, he sat up and held his forehead. However, he couldn't remember what had happened yesterday."You're awake?" Jade pushed the door open and entered, smiling as she brandished something in her hand. "Do you want something to eat?"Seeing Jade, Caelan hesitated visibly, memories of the previous night flashing through his mind in fragments. He remembered Giselle drugging him, the attempt at seduction, and then searching for Jade. But the details were hazy.Jade seemed unaffected, but Caelan felt unsettled. It was an odd feeling, leaving him both anxious and

    The club's waiters were all trained, and one of their rules was that they couldn't accept tips. Jade had forgotten about it and inadvertently tipped according to hotel etiquette. It was her oversight that led to her discovery of the problem."What happened after that?" Caelan more or less understood the gist of the situation. He both admired Jade's quick thinking and regretted her being too rational. Sometimes, it would be okay to go along with the flow.Jade didn't realize Caelan's slightly darkening face as she continued earnestly. "I suspected something was added to the food, so I didn't touch it. As expected, my door was opened not long after. Fortunately, Owen was there to protect me and kicked the intruder out."She discreetly glanced at Caelan and observed his expression growing even darker."After that, you arrived, and we promptly summoned a doctor for you." Jade didn't divulge all the details—the situation was more intense than her description.In his irrational state,

    It was Giselle's passport."Master, you're amazing!" Jade exclaimed sincerely. "As expected of a veteran. Giselle probably will never expect she's been under your surveillance for a while now."Owen felt a bit embarrassed by Jade's praise, but his lack of facial expressions made him appear a bit odd."Let's hurry to the airport. We might just witness a good show," Owen suggested.Jade nodded, leaving the room with Owen and heading to the airport together.…Meanwhile, Giselle was still unaware that her passport was missing as she flirted with Damien in the airport lounge. "Honey, do you think we should extend our stay abroad?"Damien kissed her cheek and affectionately replied, "Of course, baby. Whatever you want, I'll do it for you.""You're the best, honey," Giselle said, feeling sorry for herself as she remembered being rejected by Caelan. She considered herself superior to Jade in every aspect, yet he hadn't spared her a glance.She snuggled up to Damien, but in her mind,

    "Older woman?" Giselle's eyes widened with anger. She believed she had taken good care of herself, staying young and fashionable. Thus, being called an older woman was unacceptable.Damien seemed to grasp the art of insulting her as he continued. "You're six years older than me, yet you want me to call you 'sweet baby' all the time. Can you be any more disgusting?""Argh!" Giselle slapped him hard across the face, yelling, "Get lost! Get out of here now!"Damien spat at her and briskly walked away. "Gladly."The lounge was filled with onlookers as Giselle pointed at them and shouted like a mad woman, "What are you looking at? Get lost, all of you!"As the crowd dispersed, she slumped into a chair, contemplating her next move.Jade, who had been observing from the crowd, finally revealed herself. "What an exciting show."Upon seeing her, Giselle screamed as if she had seen a monster, "Jade, why are you here?!"Jade smiled. "Why can't I be here? Why are you so afraid to see me? D

    "What? You want me never to come back? Jade, you're too vicious," Giselle yelled defiantly, her gaze filled with hatred toward Jade.If it weren't for Jade, she and Caelan would have been together long ago. How could she have fallen into such a predicament?Jade remained unmoved. "Think whatever you want. The path has been laid out for you. How you walk it is up to you." If she didn't drive Giselle away, the latter would inevitably act crazier out of her love for Caelan. For Caelan's sake, Giselle had to leave.Jade handed the passport back to Giselle and said calmly, "Think about it. Whether you want to risk losing the Withrow Group or go abroad."Clutching the passport, Giselle felt her hatred reach its peak, but she pretended to relent. "Fine, I'll go abroad."Workers were approaching with a cart from a distance, and Giselle's eyes glinted. With a strong push, she shoved Jade toward the pile of goods and ran toward the exit.Jade hadn't expected her sudden attack and couldn'

    Giselle paid no attention to anything, crying and making a scene as if throwing a tantrum. She even ignored the fact that her body was bleeding, punching her own abdomen.It seemed she really didn't want this child.Jade saw through her intention and advised coldly, "Whether you live or die is none of my concern. If I hadn't seen you, I could have ignored it. But since I did, I can't just leave you alone because I'm a doctor."She gripped Giselle's wrist, locking eyes with her, and said firmly, "So, don't try to put on a dramatic show in front of me."Giselle was so shocked that she couldn't even utter a word. She looked at Jade's icy face and couldn't help but break down and cry, "You're such a heartless creature. You'll get what's coming to you!""If I face consequences, it's my business, not yours," Jade replied.The ambulance arrived, and paramedics carried Giselle away.Jade didn't want to get involved in this mess, but as she was about to leave, a medical staff member stop

    Chenelle's words made Jade clench her fists in anger. For someone so heartless, she really wanted to wake her up with a good beating.Taking a step forward, Jade grabbed Chenelle by the collar.Chenelle screamed, thinking Jade was about to hit her, and retreated in fear. "What are you doing? Do you want to hit me again?!"'So, she can also feel fear.'Jade sneered coldly, rolling up her sleeves to show the scars on her arm. "While you complain about the world's injustices, open your eyes wide and see that not everyone is as fortunate as you."I was also adopted, but compared to you, our lives are worlds apart. While you resent not getting enough attention, others are struggling to find their next meal. When you let jealousy drive you to harm others, some people are just praying to survive."Chenelle, you truly don't appreciate the blessings you have."Jade's fair arm was covered in scars of various sizes—burns, cuts, and a long stitched wound that looked like a centipede. Althou

    Chenelle forcefully shook off Jade's hand, her eyes filled with venom as she spat, "You bitch! Stop pretending to be so righteous. I despise people like you the most. Do you think the Fitzgeralds adopted me out of kindness? No, it's because they felt guilty."Her face twisted with intense hatred, her gaze sweeping across everyone in the hall with a sharp, accusatory edge.When her eyes landed on Kennedy, her resentment peaked. "Ever since I stepped into the Fitzgerald household, you've treated me with hostility, never once showing me a kind face."My efforts to make you happy were like a dog desperately seeking attention. When you were in a good mood, you were somewhat kind to me, but when you weren't, you completely ignored me. "Do you think bringing me into the Fitzgeralds would make me grateful? No, it won't. I hate you. I hate every single one of you! You took away my only family and snuffed out the last bit of warmth I had."If it weren't for my father trying to protect Cael

    After changing her clothes, Jade applied light makeup while standing in front of the mirror. As she gazed at her rosy reflection, fragments of the previous night's events flickered in her mind. Her cheeks flushed, and she covered her face with her hands, fanning herself nervously. 'What to do, what to do? How should I face Caelan later?'After much hesitation, Jade decided to face him. After all, they had already crossed all boundaries. Avoiding him now would be unnecessarily dramatic. Moreover, they would be living together in the future. It wasn't practical to keep avoiding him.With this thought, Jade felt significantly more at ease. As she approached the door, she heard Caelan's voice from the living room. "Hold her there. I'm coming right over." Puzzled, Jade opened the door and looked at Caelan.He ended his call and said, "We've found the person who drugged you. I'm heading over now.""Who is it?" Jade asked angrily.Caelan gave her a deep, serious look before replying,

    'And then…' Thinking about it further, Jade couldn’t bear to continue. 'Could it be that I spent the night with Orion?!'"Morning..." The familiar deep voice sent a shiver through Jade, followed by a surge of joy enveloping her entire being. That voice, she would recognize it even in death.It was Caelan. This was Caelan's voice!Jade remained motionless, her body stiff. The swing from immense sorrow to immense joy was too overwhelming—she needed a moment to process it all."Why aren't you saying anything?" Caelan noticed Jade's odd behavior and propped himself up to look at her face, only to find her silently shedding tears.His heart clenched, and his first instinct was to apologize. "I'm sorry, last night I had no choice. Your situation was too dangerous—"Before he could finish, Jade threw herself into his arms.Caelan was at a loss, his body rigid, afraid to move a muscle.Tears dripped onto his chest, scorching his skin and softening his heart."Are you still in pain?" h

    Jade felt as if her head was about to explode, her body burning, with her organs seemingly on the verge of combustion."Jade, Jade, wake up." Caelan gently patted Jade's cheek. The moment he touched her skin, he was startled by how scalding hot she felt.Jade's eyes fluttered open in a daze, her vision blurred, unable to discern the face looming close to hers. She grasped the cool hand on her face, pressing it tightly against her skin."So cool… So cool…" Jade murmured unconsciously, her body instinctively leaning closer. She wrapped her arms around the man's neck, rubbing against him desperately. "Help me… I feel so uncomfortable, so hot."Seeing her in such a state, Caelan felt an indescribable pain in his heart. His fists clenched tightly, veins bulging on the back of his hands as he commanded Samuel, "Find out who did this."Samuel nodded. "The doctor is on his way, but we need to lower Miss Severin's temperature immediately."Caelan's eyes darkened momentarily. He bent down,

    Orion's face had turned a shade of red that was far from normal, yet he struggled to stay conscious, shaking his head with a bitter smile."I never thought I'd see the day when I'd be outsmarted."Jade's heart tightened in response. She had reserved a VIP suite in the hotel, with only two rooms on the entire floor. To ensure privacy, she had explicitly instructed that no one was to come upstairs. Now, Orion had been drugged, and she…A sudden spell of dizziness caused Jade's legs to give way. She clung to the door frame to avoid collapsing. To her horror, she realized she had been drugged too. 'Damn it! How could I have let my guard down?!'"I'll call for help. Don't move."Overwhelmed by the heat coursing through her body, Jade was on the brink of losing her sanity. In a bid to stay conscious, she dug her nails into her palm. The pain brought a moment of clarity, but it was fleeting. The heat surged back, stronger and more relentless than before. Fear crept up from Jade's feet

    Jade arrived at the hotel and easily found the floor, unlocking Room 2020. As soon as she stepped inside, she was taken aback—red roses filled the entire room, and candles burned softly in the corners, creating a romantic and cozy atmosphere.This was the result of Melanie and Tiffany’s hard work all afternoon.As Jade walked on the soft carpet, Jade's heart danced with excitement. Today, she would give herself to Caelan—she was finally going to be his woman. She had been waiting for this day for so long.Her phone buzzed with a text message. Jade opened it and saw it was from Tiffany.Tiffany: [There's a gift for you on the bed. You're welcome.]'A gift? What kind of prank is this girl up to now?'Following Tiffany’s instructions, Jade found the gift on the bed. She opened it and gasped. A few black straps connected to bits of sheer fabric!'Lingerie?' Jade’s face turned crimson, and she quickly shoved the outfit back into the box. If she wore this to see Caelan, she’d rather

    Caelan: [Alright, go ahead and get busy.]Jade felt a slight chill in her heart as she read the message from Caelan. Shouldn't he have asked where she was going? Why did he just reply with that?There was something off about Caelan's mood, but she couldn't quite pinpoint what it was.Seeing Jade lost in thought, Melanie waved her hand in front of her friend's eyes. "Hey, snap out of it. Did Caelan say when he's coming?"Jade, feeling a bit down, replied, "I haven't figured out how to tell him yet.""What's there to figure out? My goodness." Melanie grabbed Jade's phone and quickly typed a message to Caelan.Jade: [I'll be waiting for you at 5:00 p.m. in Room 2020 of Serendipitus. We need to talk.]With a flourish, she sent the message and tossed the phone back to Jade.Jade's eyes widened in shock. "Melanie, can we really do this?""Why not? Trust me, right now Caelan is probably as anxious as a cat on a hot tin roof, wondering if you're going to break up with him."Tiffany c

    The car sped toward Jade's villa, coming to a stop.Caelan immediately took out his phone and called Jade. Just like before, there was no answer. While staring at the tightly shut door, Caelan's heart clenched. 'Could it be true, as Chenelle said, that Jade has fallen for Orion?'..."Hey, can't you two stop this?" Jade sighed in exasperation.She had been perfectly content at home when Tiffany and Melanie had barged in and dragged her out.To make matters worse, they had taken her phone. Their excuse was to make Caelan worry and see if he would dare to disappear again. Most importantly, they wanted to surprise him."Just relax and stay here. Tiffany and I will handle everything else," Melanie said, pressing Jade into a chair and thrusting a makeup brush into her hand. "You just focus on looking beautiful and don't worry about a thing, okay?"Jade couldn't help but laugh. "Can you two stop being so overbearing? I'm the main character here. Can't you show me some respect?"The
