Calista snapped back to her senses as he inched closer. She found her gaze fixed on the man's lips and unconsciously leaned back. But as soon as she moved, Lucian pulled her into his embrace.

"Ten minutes."

There was no rhyme or reason to his words. And yet, she understood what he meant.

The man's scent was familiar to her despite the lack of intimacy throughout their three years together. She had no choice but to lean against his chest and listen to the sound of his steady heartbeat.

Apart from the thumping of his heart, the world was silent.

At that moment, she found herself unable to push him away. Perhaps it was because of the exhaustion from the recent argument that she felt drained.

She relaxed and allowed herself to lean fully against Lucian.

"He used to treat me like that too."

It had been a long time since then. She needed time to recall the details carefully. Calista spoke slowly but Lucian didn't interrupt her. He didn't show a trace of impatience.

    The attendees of the auction were all from the same social circle. They were people who met one another regularly.Upon hearing that, someone immediately chimed in, "Are you sure? How did you know?"The invitations were only presented at the entrance and Lily was just climbing up the steps."Her invitation fell to the floor when she got out of the car. I happened to see it and it looked like it said 'Northwood'."Northwood was not a common surname. It was also associated with someone of great influence and status. Who else could it be but Lucian Northwood?"They've both been on the news before. The dancer fell off the stage and was carried away by Mr. Northwood. Now she's attending the auction with his invitation. Something seems to be going on."The noblewoman who was chatting with Selena knew about Lucian's marriage and said with righteous indignation, "These people don't know anything at all. There they go running their mouths again. It's like they forgot all their morals back

    Calista, who had wanted to play matchmaker, blinked in confusion. She stared wide-eyed at how calm Selena was with her blatant lies. How was she supposed to react? When on earth had she thrown up?And compared to Lily, who could barely catch her breath, she was well enough to knock out a cow! She didn't look ill at all.But, Calista's series of thoughts barely affected the media's focus. They had their cameras aimed at her. Among the paparazzi were well-informed individuals who had heard about the goings on.Only, they hadn't seen the two of them together or received any sort of official announcement. Thus, they remained uncertain of the news' authenticity.Now that Selena Jenkin, the mother-in-law, had confirmed it herself, there was no longer any doubt."Mrs. Northwood, are you aware that Ms. Scott is here at the auction with your husband's invitation?""Do you think Ms. Scott is aware of your marriage to Mr. Northwood?"A majority of the journalists crowded around Calista whe

    Hector Calloway thought he had the wrong person at first. He shot Calista a casual glance when she first walked in. He couldn't be certain then. Now, he was sure it was her."I thought you looked familiar when you walked in. It is you."He sat down in the chair next to her with his legs spread out in front of him in a bold manner."Have you seen the catalog? Is there anything you like? I'll buy them for you."A catalog was placed on each seat. The booklet provided details about the items being auctioned for the day. Calista was just about to respond when Lucian spoke coldly. It was as if he were looking to pick a fight."I believe that isn't your seat, Mr. Calloway."It was only then that Hector noticed Lucian. He raised a brow."Who's this, Calista?"The two men locked eyes. One was arrogantly assertive while the other was cold and composed. There was a dark look in Lucian's eyes as he wrapped his arm around Calista's shoulder in a possessive manner."I'm her husband.""Husb

    There was a striking look in the woman's eyes. The way she smiled provocatively resembled a sly fox.Lucian thought about what Calista had said before. It was about how she wasn't going to let him have it both ways. He frowned.In the time they were exchanging quips, the auctioneer had enthusiastically begun to announce the bids once more.Calista raised her bidding card once more, adding the minimum increment allowed. It was as if she were trying to tease a cat.Others who were interested in the bracelet could feel the growing tension in the air and stopped competing for it. It wasn't worth offending someone for a bracelet.The pale-faced Lily gritted her teeth. She could tell what Calista was up to and decided not to bid any further.In the end, it was Calista who got the bracelet. The auction continued, but she got up and left the venue.Calista was a conservator restorer and often worked with jewelry worn by ancient dignitaries and nobles. The craftsmanship was exquisite and

    The SUV let out a resounding roar as the door closed. They weren't going particularly fast because Calista had yet to fasten her seatbelt. But, the noise was enough to attract the attention of half the hotel.By the time Lucian reached the entrance, all he could see was the red glow of the tail lights flashing in the darkness.His gaze remained fixed in that direction. The look in his eyes was darker than the starless night sky. His lips were pressed into a thin line in displeasure.An injured Lily came outside with the assistance of a staff member."I'll go get a car, Ms. Scott. Please wait a moment.""Alright."She stood by Lucian. Due to the ache in her ankle, she had to lean against the doorframe to keep her balance.She had to change out of her high heels into disposable hotel slippers, making her swollen ankle look even worse.He turned his attention to her and parted his lips. Lily knew he had something to say when she sensed his gaze on her. She interrupted him."You s

    Hector had looked into Lucian during the auction. There was not a peep about Calista's marriage to him. All he saw was rumors about him with another woman. To him, Lucian was not a good person!Moreover, the two of them were already getting a divorce. What he was doing was tantamount to stalking. With that thought in mind, Hector squared up.His stance was casual as he poked his tongue in his cheek. He looked doubtful."Can't you tell she doesn't want anything to do with you? You're oh so rich and noble. You're well-educated, aren't you? Take a hint, eh?"Lucian rolled his eyes with a brooding intensity."Who do you think you are to interfere in our affairs?"His deep voice enunciated every word. From how he presented himself, he looked like a gentleman in a suit and tie who could be taken out with one hand.But deep down, he gave off a feeling of violent aggression. Both were hot-blooded men who didn't tolerate blatant provocation.Neither of them seeing eye to eye only added

    Lucian opened his eyes. The white wisps of smoke escaped from between his lips.None of the lights in the living room were on. The only source of light that illuminated the room was from the street lamps outside the massive windows.The already dim glow was further obscured by the smoke that lingered in the air, casting a hazy veil over his vision. He cleared his throat and hummed in response. David quickly sent him the manuscript after hanging up.The brightness of his phone was rather harsh under the dim lighting. But, Lucian wasn't in the mood to switch the lights on.He simply checked through what he'd been sent despite the manor being equipped with smart home technology. All he needed to do was use the smart app to switch it on.It was just as he expected. Calista had been caught confronting Lily. But, it only featured a photograph of her raising her hand. There was no follow-up.The article's text sympathized with Lily and insinuated that Calista was arrogant and overbearin

    The bodyguards didn't even flinch in the face of her questioning. They remained cold and businesslike."We received orders to protect you."Protect her? Was Calista supposed to believe that Lucian was that kind-hearted?"I don't need anyone's protection. Go back to wherever you came from. Stop standing at my front door."She had barely finished speaking when she noticed her neighbors snooping on the commotion with their doors open.The bodyguards stood stiffly in place. They sounded as emotionless as a robot."Mr. Northwood says that he'll come here himself if you don't want us around.""Calista could barely believe her ears. Great! Her appetite for breakfast was gone in an instant! She slammed the door shut with a resounding bang. She pulled out her phone from her bag and gave Lucian a call. The moment the man picked up, she vented her overwhelming rage at him."Have your men leave this instant, Lucian!""They can protect you while you're there."The man had seemingly just

    With Cade covering Cameron's mouth, there was no chance for her pointed words to offend anyone in the room. His palm was cool to the touch. It was a sensation she disliked. So, she couldn't help but tilt her head.When Cade noticed her movements, he gently stroked her cheek as if he were calming a child who was throwing a tantrum.Victor spent years in a position of authority, giving him an air of unspoken authority. His gaze hardened, and his lips pressed into a firm line as he watched Cade. "Cade, don't jeopardize the long-standing relationship between our families over a woman.""If that's how you see it." Cade glanced at the door. "Aren't you doing the same for a woman?"Victor snorted contemptuously. "How can a cheap girl who was merely adopted be worth anything compared to Mirabelle?""How is my daughter, a Yorksworth, worth any less than yours?" Blaire stood at the doorway as she took in the occupants of the home with her sharp gaze. She had been feeling restless ever sin

    Mirabelle frowned. "Excuse me?"As soon as she finished speaking, Cameron walked up to her, grabbed her by her hair, and forcefully bent her over.Cameron held up the guest list Monica had sent her and shoved it in Mirabelle's face. "Call them. Tell them to be there by 3:00 p.m., or else…"She tightened her grip threateningly. "You can kiss this head of hair goodbye."Mirabelle pressed down on her scalp where it had been pulled, her voice distorted with pain when she spoke."Let go, Cameron! Are you out of your mind?""Didn't I tell you not to involve anyone else in our feud?""Can't take it anymore?"Mirabelle endured the pain of turning her head to flash a disdainful sneer at Cameron."This is just the appetizer. If you go against me, you'll eventually crawl out of Capeton with your tail between your legs. I'll call your business partner right now and pin the catastrophic failure of this event on you…"Seeing Mirabelle's condescending expression brought Cameron back to the

    The kiss lifted the dark cloud that hung over Cade's mood over the past few days.The next day, as Fabian brought in documents for him to sign, Cade asked, "When is Cameron's show?"Fabian was taken aback for a split second but quickly replied. Fortunately, he was well-prepared and kept track of Cameron's events for the year in advance."Has the invitation been delivered?"Fabian swallowed, almost wanting to laugh to mock Cade. Given Cade's strained relationship with his wife, Cameron would sooner invite a dog than have him around. However, all Fabian could do was revel in Cade's misery in his mind while keeping a businesslike facade."It was probably already delivered. The front desk brought in a stack of mail yesterday. I haven't sorted it out yet."He had already sorted out the mail this morning. Everything had gone straight to the trash."Clear my schedule for the day. Make reservations at a restaurant for a celebratory dinner.""Yes, sir."On the day of the show, Monica

    That was obviously an excuse to get Cade out of the picture. Knowing what Mirabelle had done to Cameron in the past, leaving the two of them alone was out of the question. Besides, it wasn't convenient for him to move the car, so he refused without a second thought."Get the attendant—"However, Cameron cut him off before he could finish."Ms. Ackerman is a guest. You should fulfill her requests if she has any."Cade cast her a cold glance. "Shut up." Why should he dance to Mirabelle's tune?Cameron stared at him. "Run along."He gritted his teeth as rage crossed his face. After a brief pause, he sneered and turned to leave. As soon as the door shut behind him, Mirabelle's calm expression slipped. "Did you make me come here just to show off how much you two love each other?""You call that love? I think we have different definitions of what 'love' is then. He's nothing more than…" Cameron's fingers lightly traced the cup's rim as she smirked and said, "A lap dog.""You fu

    Cameron crossed her arms over her chest and gave the bouquet in Cade's hands a nonchalant glance."What are you trying to pull, Mr. Carter?""Fabian said it was Women's Day today.""So what?"There was silence all around. The sound of soothing music could be heard through the door. Cade was silent for a while. "We're not getting a divorce, Cameron."It was the same old topic that Cameron had grown too weary of. She turned around and felt for the cigarette box on the table. There was already a layer of cigarette butts in the ashtray next to it. Judging by the color of the lipstick marks, more than half of them were hers.Cade frowned. He clearly disapproved of her smoking but kept himself from stopping her.Smoke curled from between her lips. The flickering embers of the cigarette reflected in her eyes, softening her indifferent gaze. Through the thin haze, Cameron's lips curled into a wide, unrestrained smile. Every time she smiled in this way, it always filled Cade with a

    Cade began unbuckling his belt as he spoke. When it came to this sort of thing, men often had a strong sense of competition, especially in the presence of a woman they were interested in."Such a dark atmosphere isn't right for our situation."Cameron didn't like him to begin. In such a dark atmosphere, there was no telling what kind of grotesque creature she might imagine him to be. It would be strange if she felt attraction for him.She leveled a steady stare at him. Cade's shirt was half undone, showing his tense muscles underneath. Under the influence of alcohol, his skin took on a faint reddish hue. There was a heart-pounding tension in the air as if something was about to ignite. Occasionally, his slightly heavy breaths could be heard."You haven't been working out recently, have you?" Cameron asked.Cade was confused.Cameron pressed her hand against his chest, right below his ribs, and gave it a little push. After a moment, she commented, "Your muscles are a little soft

    Cade tossed his phone onto the table in frustration when he saw who entered. He pressed his hand against his brow."Leave. You should see Diane for a work uniform.""Are you feeling unwell, Mr. Carter?" Rosalia approached the desk with a glass of milk in hand. "I learned how to give massages. Why don't I…" "Get out."Cade abruptly got to his feet and avoided Rosalia's outstretched hand, causing the milk to spill all over him. He glanced down at his now-stained shirt with a dark expression and pressed his lips tightly together. After a long pause, he asked through clenched teeth, "Did my wife ask you to send this up?" Every syllable was pronounced with the gnashing of teeth.Rosalia froze under his piercing gaze."It really was Mrs. Carter who asked me to bring it to you, sir," she stammered."Leave. From now on, you will not enter my study unless you have permission."Rosalia had come to work as a housekeeper to land herself a wealthy husband. She had even bribed the manager

    On the next day, Cameron was discussing the fashion show with Monica when she suddenly heard a familiar voice from behind. "Cammie…" It was Blaire.Although Monica didn't fully know about Cameron's past, she didn't like Blaire at all. What kind of mother wouldn't protect their own child, after all?However, it wasn't appropriate for her to intervene as much even though she was Cameron's close friend. After all, it was Cameron's family matter.Monica stood up with her notebook in hand and said, "Well, I just remembered that there's still a few more invitations to send, so I'll go and take care of that. Let's discuss more about the fashion show later."After saying that, she glanced at Blaire and left without even greeting her.Cameron got up and nodded at Blaire. "Is something the matter?"She thought that her distant attitude last night had made it clear enough that she didn't want any more involvement with the Yorksworth family. She didn't expect that Blaire would come and loo

    Cameron pushed the door open. She looked tired as she laid down her bag. As she changed her shoes, she caught sight of the food on the dining table out of the corner of her eye."Diane, didn't I tell you I wasn't coming back for dinner? Why did you make so much food?"Diane glanced upstairs. "It's for Mr. Carter. He hasn't eaten yet."The moment Cade was mentioned, Cameron dropped the topic. She rubbed her sore shoulder as she headed upstairs. "I see.""Madam…" Diane called out hesitantly, looking troubled. "Mr. Carter asked you to call him down for dinner when you got home.""Me? Call him down for dinner?" Cameron stopped in her tracks and turned around in confusion. "Why?""Mr. Carter seems to be upset. Did you two have another fight?""So If he's in a bad mood, I'm supposed to go upstairs and invite him down to eat? Should I also say 'Your meal is ready, my liege!' while I'm at it?" Cameron scoffed. Her sarcastic smirk quickly faded. "He can eat if he wants. If he doesn't,
