Lina heard everything they said, and it hit her hard. Their stares felt like knives cutting into her face. Instinctively, she glanced at Desiree, who appeared quite intoxicated, lazily leaning on the couch.Desiree was looking back at her, and they locked eyes.Lina saw a clear, gloating expression in Desiree's gaze. Now, she understood the intent behind Desiree's actions.Desiree had defamed her and suppressed her, using Nicholas' unsavory past as a gangster to keep influential people away from Lina. This way, she couldn't interact with those important connections anymore.If things went according to Desiree's plan, Lina would be humiliated and angry.Lina remained composed, trying not to lose her temper, but the others were crossing the line, especially under the influence of alcohol.Desiree also joined in, seemingly drunk, but Lina suspected she was fully aware of her actions.Lina chuckled, looking at Desiree. "It seems we won't be able to proceed with our collaboration. Ne

Desiree was in a mess, retreating with her hands supporting her body on the ground. She was unable to stop shaking and cried at the top of her lungs.In stark contrast, the janitor remained surprisingly calm, silencing Desiree with a cloth."You're annoying," the janitor stated."Mmph!" Desiree struggled in panic."Don't tell anyone about the gun, get it?" the janitor threatened.Desiree widened her eyes.Even Lina was stunned.The janitor had chased after Desiree to prevent anyone from finding out that Lina had a gun. After all, the Thompsons were now involved in legitimate business, and their reputation could be damaged if this information got out.However, Lina couldn't recall having any contact with this person, no matter how hard she thought.Why would she help her?Fearful and unable to do anything else, Desiree could only nod and cry.After removing the cloth, the janitor let Desiree go. The latter hastily crawled and ran away.Lina's heart raced as she stood outside

Lina and Renee fell silent at the same time. The name Madame Krys had brought them back to the time on the ship. They had thought they had forgotten about it, but the narrow cabin, the wounded girls, and the ferocious eyes were playing in their heads like a movie. It was a traumatic experience, as well as an unforgettable memory."Maybe," Lina said softly. "Maybe she's really related to Madame Krys. Even though she saved our lives, she broke the law. We can't tell whether this Lena is a friend or a foe just yet, so we must be cautious."Renee nodded. "Cuz, if you really want to find out, why don't you go there a couple more times?"Toph quickly interjected. "It's a dangerous place. Better to stay away!"Renee looked at him and smiled but said nothing more.The group parted ways and went home after chatting for a while.-Desiree had been quiet these days. She used to hit Zuko up daily, but she now dared not even text him.When Toph was playing games, he would notice that her av

The venue went silent for a second before loud applause erupted.The celebrities had seen it all, having been in all sorts of movies and dramas. But they had never seen anything so sweet as what Zuko had just done for Lina.They applauded, whether out of genuine appreciation or simply to go along with the crowd. But no one wanted to miss the opportunity to offer their sincere congratulations.Zuko and Lina began to dance. After taking off her heels, Lina felt lighter on her feet. Although she wasn't much of a dancer, Zuko's presence helped to calm her nerves.They made a handsome couple, and their graceful movements drew countless admiring glances.After the dance, they retired to the VIP room to discuss the future of the film studio. But their conversation was interrupted by Renee, who burst into the room in a panic."Cuz!" she cried.Lina was startled. "What's wrong?"Renee was so flustered that she could barely speak.Toph followed close behind, his expression grave. "There

Zuko smiled. "Thanks, Uncle Nicholas."Nicholas tidied his tie, looking proud. Linda then dragged him away, holding his ear.Zuko knocked on the door, but there was no response at first. He became worried and was about to ask the maid for a spare key when the door opened.Lina stood in front of him with her eyes downcast. She looked thinner, with dark circles under her eyes, but she didn't seem dispirited."Lina..." Zuko felt a pang of heartache and gently caressed her soft cheek, asking, "Is there anything else I can do for you?"Lina smiled and leaned into his embrace.During this time, Zuko had already done a lot for her. While Lina had been cooperating with the police investigation, he had been outside waiting for her. When Lina locked herself in her room, he had been analyzing the doubts and finding evidence.If Lina asked what else he could do for her...Lina said, "I'd like to take a walk. Would you go with me?""Of course!" Zuko was eager to do that. "Where would you l
