All Chapters of Billionaire Heiress' Revenge Game: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

The next morning, when Marcia woke up, Elijah was still lying beside her, sound asleep.She took her time studying his face closely. Elijah was the most handsome man she'd ever seen, even more striking than the idols on TV.True, he didn't have Hayden's perfectly sculpted features, Myron's easy-going charm, or Kevin's intellectual and lively aura.Yet somehow, he was the most captivating of them all. Elijah had a way of making her feel safe and assured.Marcia's fingers lightly traced his eyebrows, lingering with a hint of affection as her hand glided down to his eyes, nose, and lips...His Adam's apple, particularly enticing, gave a slight bob as he woke up, his hand catching hers in a firm grip."Harassing me this early, darling?" he murmured.Marcia tried to keep her composure. "Didn't you touch me yesterday? And kissed me, too! Don't think I didn't notice just because you thought I was asleep."Elijah chuckled, his laughter

The business world is often like a battlefield, but more often than not, it's a stage—only those with the best performance can seize the lead.Though Alan and Drew both harbored resentment, when they saw Kevin appear in the doorway, their faces broke into genuine smiles, as if they were meeting an old, dear friend."You must be Professor Franklin, right? Truly impressive for someone so young!" Alan extended his hand, greeting Kevin politely.Kevin smiled warmly. "Hello, Alan Wright, it's an honor. I've heard so much about you! Haha, Drew, I heard you're out now. Why aren't you resting at home for a few days?"Drew's jaw twitched as he forced a smile. "Professor Franklin, that day I acted on impulse. As soon as I got out, I came to apologize. I hope you can forgive me.""Don't say that!" Kevin replied smoothly, stepping aside. "An apology is due to more than just me! But Jane's on leave today, so if you really want to apologize, come back tomo

Alan froze on the spot, staring at the woman before him, whose every smile and frown seemed almost magical, filling his mind with surprise and suspicion.Marcia had always been reserved. She wasn't particularly beautiful, her features merely passable, yet her eyes always held an aloofness, an icy pride that made her less appealing to men compared to the sweet and sultry Kate.If Kate hadn't mentioned her family's wealth back then, Alan wouldn't have bothered chasing her with such determination.But this woman in front of him—she looked the same, yet her entire aura had transformed, radiating captivating brilliance. Was she truly not Marcia?Noticing Alan's shocked expression, Drew frowned, stepping forward. "With this look, we barely recognized you! No wonder Elijah chose you as the new project lead."Marcia gave a faint smile, unfazed by the implications in Drew's words, and replied coolly, "What brings you two here?"Drew nudged Alan's arm, only to find him standing there silently,

A while later, Marcia and Kevin reported to Elijah in his office."Sir, Alan has left," Marcia said softly as they both stood before his desk.Elijah nodded. "Alright, Patricia, you may go. I need to speak with Kevin."Marcia hesitated. "Sir, may I change out of this outfit?"Elijah glanced up and firmly replied, "No."Speechless, Marcia turned and left the office.As she exited, Kevin chuckled, "Eli, what kind of weird hobby is this?""I just like seeing her looking beautiful," Elijah retorted, giving Kevin a sidelong glance. Then he asked, "How did Alan react?""He looked stunned. I have to admit, the man's impressive! He distanced himself from Drew in just a few words. Even when we mentioned his mother, he smiled as if it was nothing! If I didn't know she'd died in police custody, I'd have thought she'd passed away peacefully. It was an accident, but clearly, he harbors a grudge. Yet he never showed it, not even a hint. Eli, I don't get it—why are you making Patricia go along with

As they were talking, Marcia suddenly tasted a metallic, blood-like flavor in her mouth.The taste was so unpleasant that it made her feel sick.Unconsciously, her eyes drifted to the plate closest to her. A large serving of beef slices, marbled with streaks of blood...Marcia nearly gagged.In reality, the beef was top-quality wagyu, the kind that would taste amazing even as sashimi. But Marcia had never been fond of meat, and this was neither easy to swallow nor easy to spit out.With a stiff upper lip, she forced herself to swallow, then took a sip of the wine in front of her. She smiled faintly and said, "It's not bad. Would you like to try some?"She pushed the plate of beef toward the others.Nicole smiled back, "No thanks, I prefer a more... conventional way of eating."Myron shrugged. "I prefer my beef cooked. You sure are something else."Even Kevin couldn't resist giving a thumbs up. "A bold woman! How does Eli handle you?"The others laughed at the remark, and Marcia blushe
