Christopher's fork paused near his mouth, a piece of meat still on the prongs. "Do you not like me that much?"

"Yeah. I can't exactly figure you out though I really want to. It irks me, so we might as well leave as early as possible." Jenny was upfront and unapologetic. Christopher's opinion didn't matter to her, after all.

"Grandpa said to not come back home until you're my girlfriend."

Jenny looked at him in shock. "Shouldn't you be occupied with other things?" she asked. Christopher should be just as busy as Alec now that he had inherited his family name.

Christopher smiled. "Grandpa told me to just focus on you. He'll take care of things at home."

Jenny scowled. How important could she be to have the heir of the Spade family drop everything and court her?

She set down her silverware and said sternly, "I don't know what exactly you and your family have in mind but…I don't think people should spend their lives chasing after money and power. They should have their personal dream

    Just as the atmosphere tensed up, Vincent walked over, tucking his phone into his pocket. "The client's almost here."Alec nodded, then said to Jenny, "Go home first." He said nothing else to Christopher, only glanced at him before turning to Vincent. "Send her home."Vincent nodded while Alec walked into the restaurant alone.Jenny quickly declined, knowing Vincent had to stay with his boss while they met with the client. "It's alright, Vincent. I'll just get a taxi. Go on in with Alec.""Let me drive you, Miss Walter, else Mr. Faust won't let me off easy." Vincent lowered his head respectfully. Jenny relented. She was about to say goodbye to Christopher when the man said, "Have a safe trip home. Text me once you're there, okay?"Vincent frowned at his affectionate tone. "There isn't something going on between Miss Walter and this Spade kid, right? Yes, the Spade family is more powerful than the Fausts, but Mr. Faust himself is stronger than Christopher Spade. And Miss Walter w

    Alec didn't have any intention to linger around once their third wheel had gone. He stood up, ready to leave, when Christopher stopped him."Are you in a rush, Mr. Faust? I'd like to have a word with you.""What do you want to say?" Alec responded flatly, sitting back down in his seat."I'm sure you know as much as I do." Christopher grinned. They had nothing in common save for Jenny.Alec sneered, not afraid of him whatsoever. "Then there's nothing for us to talk about. Jenny is a living, breathing person, not some transactional product.""Why so jumpy? I haven't even said anything." Christopher laughed, finding Alec being upset amusing. This only furthered Alec's assumption that Christopher wasn't up to anything good when it came to Jenny.Alec took a deep breath. "Well? What did you want to say?""Nothing much, really. Just wondering how much it'll take for you to break up with Jenny." Christopher didn't actually have any hope Alec would proceed with his offer. Still, he had

    Things quickly turned awkward between them. Alec went and sat down on the couch. He seemed tired, though Jenny thought he might be angry instead.She tiptoed ever and murmured, "I was going to have dinner with Morgan when her blind date showed up. She went with him, so I was left alone…""I see," Alec said flatly. His cold response made Jenny even more worried. She sat next to him and continued explaining, "I only agreed to dinner with Christopher because I needed to get some information from him. Nothing else."Alec glanced at her and smiled. "Do you think I'm angry?""Aren't you?" Jenny asked.Alec hugged her close in his arms, nuzzling into her neck. Her scent instantly made him relax. "Nope. I know you don't like him that way."Jenny's shoulders loosened. "Thank goodness.""Just try not to have contact with him as much from now on. You know he doesn't mean well. I might not be able to come to your rescue first thing if he does something," Alec instructed, now looking solem

    In truth, Alec wasn't actually that clear about Jenny's background. He only guessed she wasn't as ordinary as she appeared due to overhearing his grandfather's phone call. Then, he understood why the old man insisted he married her and why she was so skilled and knowledgeable even though she grew up in the country.But even then, he hadn't paid much attention to her importance until tonight when Christopher came looking.He and Christopher were not similar whatsoever."I did this to make sure Jenny finds her family earlier. Only then will her safety be guaranteed and in turn, yours." Old Mr. Faust knew his grandson would go all out when it came to the woman he loved. That's why he came up with a plan to ensure his safety.Alec knew his grandfather's intentions, though he felt sad for Jenny now. "Jenny would be devastated if she knew the real reason why you're kind to her."She had asked Alec why his grandfather was so strange around her before, but even he hadn't known why back th

    "I know you're in there. Come out now before I kick the door down." Winston called from outside the bathroom.She was going to marry him anyway. What was wrong with sleeping with her first?"I'll give you till the count of three," Winston's voice was laced with something dangerous. He had been irritated when Morgan ran away, and her hiding now didn't help. "Don't say I didn't warn you. One."Morgan clutched her phone tight, staying as still as possible."Two."Morgan knew what would happen if Winston got his hands on her. She may have agreed to marry him, but she was still frightened at the prospect of sleeping together. Being drugged didn't help, especially when they had agreed to live their lives separately after marriage!"Three."Gritting her teeth, Morgan pushed the door open and ran out before Winston could catch her. Several guards immediately intercepted her out in the hallway. She was about to be trapped when she snuck into a nearby room, locking herself in."Seems lik

    "Let me go!" Morgan shrieked as Winston hovered over her. Still, men were physiologically stronger than women, something no amount of struggling from Morgan would change.The moment her clothes were stripped off, the single shred of hope Morgan had in her heart completely dissipated. She closed her eyes and sagged into the bed, tears streaming down her face as if she had accepted her poor fate.A heavy bang coming from the door jolted both Morgan and Winston."The fuck you…" the man cursed as he turned to the door, only to grin when he saw who was standing there."Hey, baby. Did you come for Daddy?" he cooed to Jenny in the doorway. He wasn't going to waste his chance to get her into his bed again. With that thought in mind, Winston leaped off Morgan and walked to the door. "C'mon over, baby."It was apparent he was more interested in Jenny.Morgan quickly recovered and turned to her friend, asking urgently, "Did you come alone, Jenny?" She had thought Jenny would at least have

    Jenny didn't waste any time slapping him on each cheek. "Yeah, they're all passed out on the floor right now. No one's coming to save your ass. Scared yet?"As scared as Winston was, he forced it down. "What…what are you going to do to me? You better let me go before I make you regret it!""Hah." Jenny scoffed. "Really? I'd like to see you try."With that, she dragged Winston to the window and shoved him outside."N-no, wait!" The entire upper half of his body was now hanging out the window. Cold wind blasted Winston's face as he hung from the tall height. Morgan slipped off the bed, going to Jenny's side. "He's not worth it, Jenny…"As much as she hated Winston, she didn't want Jenny dirtying her hands with his death. Plus, with the Murrs being quite influential in Parrington, Morgan would get in big trouble if Winston died. She even questioned if Alec would come to their rescue if shit really hit the fan.Jenny had saved her once before. Morgan didn't want Jenny to be targete

    As if knowing what Morgan was thinking about, Jenny said, "I'll handle the money. Don't worry.""Jenny, I…" Morgan gaped. "I don't think you know how…big a sum my family needs to make things up." If they needed less, they wouldn't have thought about an arranged marriage in the first place."How much do you need?" Jenny asked casually.Morgan stared at her in surprise and mumbled, "One billion."Not a hundred thousand, not several hundred million, but a billion.Jenny grew silent at the number, to no one's surprise. "I know you want to help me, Jenny. You've helped me so much already. You really don't have to do—""I'll cover it," Jenny interrupted steadily, making Morgan sit back in shock."Sorry, what did you say…?"Where was Jenny going to find one billion dollars? Not even her divorce settlement with Alec would've garnered that much money.The car slid to a stop by Jenny's neighborhood. "You really don't have to worry about the money.

    That afternoon, Gilbert called off his engagement to the Silveras. He did not pick up a single one of Lottie's calls. When he found Marigold, she was taking Caleb on a stroll around the neighborhood. It had been a while since she'd taken notice of anything related to Gilbert. She suddenly felt how nice it was to have her mental energy spent somewhere else, no longer being so hung up on that man. However, when Gilbert appeared before her, her heartbeat quickened. "Why are you here?" Marigold said, snapping out of her reverie. Gilbert smiled lightly. Without saying much else, he pulled her into an embrace. "Didn't you say that I could come to see you once everything is settled?" Marigold was stunned. She was in disbelief. "So, what you're saying is it's all over?" "Didn't you read the news?" Gilbert was speechless. "No. I didn't want to care." Every time she saw anything about Gilbert and Lottie, she felt miserable. She'd rather save herself the pain and block out anything

    In the end, Esther went with Gilbert's suggestion. However, she did not trade Bradshaw Operation's projects with Jenny. She went with the Silveras. For one, she did not trust the Walters. On the other hand, the Silveras and the Bradshaws were going to be united through marriage. They deserved to be trusted more. Gilbert didn't mind. After all, if anything happened to the Bradshaws, the Silveras would not help. With those projects in hand, they would only fall further into debt. The plan was going smoothly. Gilbert had not gone to see Marigold once. He knew that before subduing the Bradshaws, going to visit Marigold would only endanger her. After all, Marigold was safe. Nothing had happened, and Caleb was growing up healthily. One month later, things began to feel off in Bradshaw Operations. After Faust Group received their money, they did not start the project. No one knew what they were doing. Esther was feeling antsy. She prodded Gilbert to ask if there was anything wro

    That very afternoon, Esther and Gilbert rushed to Faust Group to sign the deal. Gilbert said he was worried that Alec would change his mind, so he urged Esther to sign it. Only through a written contract would they be able to relax. Esther thought it made sense and agreed to rush to Faust Group with Gilbert.In the meeting room, Alec looked at the two people before him, expressionless. "You have a good son, Mrs. Bradshaw." "I'm flattered. My son had Bradshaw Operations' interests at heart. He'll inevitably be a little insensitive. Please don't hold that against him, Mr. Faust." Esther smiled. She didn't mind Alec's sarcasm because it didn't matter. As long as Bradshaw Operations could truly benefit from this, she didn't care how much Alec mocked her. Alec smiled coldly and slid the contract over to her. "You may flip through it." Esther took it and read through it seriously.If this project succeeded, they would reap massive rewards. However, it required a massive upfront inv

    In the following days, Gilbert headed over to Faust Group infrequently during the day. To others, he was there to talk business with Alec. But in reality, it was a different scenario altogether. Vincent brought Gilbert a cup of coffee in Alec's office. Because of all the times he'd been there, Vincent knew what he wanted without having to ask. Alec had a cup of coffee placed before him, too. Everyone thought that Gilbert was trying to convince Alec to give him one of the shares, which was why he always came there, but that was not the case. The collaboration was a set-up. As long as the Bradshaws signed the deal on the project, they would not escape unscathed. Gilbert had planned this for a long time just to trick the Bradshaws into accepting the project. However, the scheme had to be executed perfectly. Since Gilbert buttered up the project in front of the Bradshaws, Alec had to feign disinterest in his collaboration. Otherwise, it would seem suspicious if Alec, a smart ma

    After the engagement party, Gilbert officially had a stronghold in Bradshaw operations. Because he was already very capable, he had a lot of supporters. No one challenged him in the company. Most of them sucked up to him because they knew that if things went well, he would be the heir of the company.Gilbert didn't really care about that. He didn't even want to be there for long. He knocked on Esther's door and walked into her office."Come, sit." Esther was all smiles when she saw him. It was more sincere than before.She used to doubt him a lot, but now, although she still had her reservations, she mostly believed in him. In her eyes, no one would reject the chance to inherit Bradshaw Operations. This was basically manna from Heaven. Gilbert just didn't know it back then, and now he did. Gilbert sat down in front of Esther and began reporting the information he had gathered, as well as his thoughts on Bradshaw Operations and his plans for the future.When he presented the inf

    Gilbert and Lottie's engagement party was held at Bardoff Grand Hotel on Saturday.A ton of people showed up to their engagement party. After all, the Bradshaws and the Silveras were pretty big names in Bardoff City, and plenty of the other families knew of their true wealth. They all came to attend the party. Jenny and Alec had both received invites. Jenny was Gilbert's sister, and on top of that, they represented the Walters and the Fausts. It was to be expected. At first, Jenny didn't want to go. The party held no meaning to it. It was just a show put on for Esther. It would be a complete waste of her time. However, she was talked into it by Alec. It would be weird if she didn't go. Zack brought Janet to the party. He found Jenny and was in a daze. "Wasn't Gilbert courting Marigold? Why is he engaged to Lottie?" Jenny rolled her eyes. "What have you been doing, Zack? You're really bad at keeping up." Gilbert had been courting Lottie for a while now. If Zack paid attention

    Gilbert drove to Jenny's villa, but he was in no rush to get down. He didn't unlock the doors, either. He obviously wanted to talk to Marigold. But Marigold evidently didn't want to. "I want to take my child and leave." She was afraid. What if Gilbert and Lottie married and took her child away? She no longer believed in love. The only thing she believed in was her child. Gilbert tightened his grip when he heard that. "Marigold, the engagement is only for Esther to see. I have no feelings for Lottie." "Who knows? People change. You said you didn't have feelings for me, too." Marigold found this all very amusing. Perhaps this was fate. Gilbert wanted to keep explaining, but Marigold did not give him the chance to. "Just let me and Caleb leave. If what you say is true, you can come to find us once everything is over." And if Gilbert didn't come looking for her, the truth would unfold itself, and she would give up all hope. Gilbert understood that Marigold had already made

    Marigold was miserable throughout dinner, but she persevered till the end without being too dramatic. After dinner, they walked to the entrance of the shopping mall.Gilbert went to get the car. Lottie stood with Jenny and Marigold. Watching Gilbert leave, she turned toward Marigold. "I heard that you used to like Gilbert very much." "It's all in the past. It's not worth mentioning." Marigold didn't want to talk about it. She was afraid that Lottie would see that she still liked Gilbert. Most importantly, she was afraid that Gilbert's plan would be ruined. Lottie smiled. "That's true. The past is the past. You're such a nice person. You'll definitely be able to find someone better suited for you in the future." Marigold pursed her lips. Gilbert soon brought the car over. Lottie was about to get into the car, but before she did, she suddenly turned to Marigold and said, "Gilbert and my engagement party will be in a few days' time. If you have the time, you're more than welcom

    Everyone was shocked to hear her speak so suddenly. Lottie was stunned, and she explained, "You've misunderstood. That's not what I meant. I just think that if the child follows his father, it'll help him develop better, and you'll be less stressed." "I don't need your concern. I can raise my child alone," Marigold snorted. She did not hold back at all. Lottie looked unpleasant. Gilbert had no choice but to step in. "We'll have our own child together. And whoever likes it the most will get to keep it." Although they knew that Gilbert had meant this for Lottie to hear, Marigold found it extremely upsetting. She looked at Gilbert, and for a moment, she was unable to tell if he was being genuine. She thought of all that Gilbert had said to her last night, saying that he didn't like Lottie and had no intention of marrying her. But he looked to be truly in love. Marigold didn't think she could tell if he was faking it. "I'm sorry. I need to go to the restroom." Marigold didn't w
