Candice was upset. "Then give me a number. How much do you want?"Isaac frowned. "Do you think I'll come with you just because you're paying more?""What do you want then if not money?" Candice asked, irritated."Someone like you will never understand," Isaac said coldly. "Had I known you were this kind of person, I would have never sold the shop to you. That was the worst decision I've ever made! Just go away. I never want to see you again!" With a loud slam, Isaac closed the door.Candice nearly burst into angry laughter. After all, he was just a worker. He was only after money. Why was he pretending to be so noble?The manager looked confused. "Ms. Ashton, he…""If he doesn't want to come, that's fine. I refuse to believe there isn't a single good pastry chef in all of Nocturna. If I can't find one here, I'll hire someone else, even from abroad. As long as the offer is good, I know I can find someone!" Candice declared.The manager remained silent. A truly renowned pastry che

"You slut!" Mollie hurled her bag at Candice and lunged forward, pinning her down and beating her. "You slut! You dare pass off someone else's bastard as Justin's child! You are utterly shameless!""Go away!" Thomas, losing patience, shoved Mollie aside so forcefully that she fell hard to the ground. Climbing off the bed and hastily pulling on his pants, he sneered, "So you're Justin's sister? Huh, you heard every word of our conversation, didn't you?"Mollie scrambled to her feet. "How dare you push me? I'll tell you, both you and that slut Candice are finished! With all the nerve in the world, you even had the gall to set your sights on our Farrow family! You two will be in deep trouble when Justin finds out about this!" Furious, Mollie grabbed her phone and dialed Justin's number as she stormed out.Candice's face turned pale. "Oh no…"Thomas' eyes flashed with cold malice as he snatched a nearby vase and strode toward Mollie. Before she could turn around, he smashed it hard aga

Serena spoke softly, "Mr. Quade, I have something to say. Actually…" She hesitated for a moment, gathering her thoughts. On the other end, Wilson gripped his phone tighter as his anxiety grew.Just then, a knock sounded at the door. Sebastian pushed it open. "Mr. Quade," he greeted.Serena also heard the commotion. "Mr. Quade, are you with a client?""No. Sebastian is here to report something," Wilson replied."Then call me back when you're done," Serena said softly."Alright." Wilson ended the call slowly. His handsome face bore a peculiar expression. In truth, he didn't need to hang up. The matter wasn't as important as she was, but he was afraid. Afraid she might tell him not to bother her again. The thought only made him more irritable.Sebastian stood there, his heart pounding, wondering if he should say more. Wilson already looked irritated even though he hadn't said anything.After a long pause, Wilson rubbed his forehead and finally asked while looking at Sebastian, "W

The night deepened. Wilson arrived at Serena's cake shop, but she was nowhere to be found. He called, but no one answered. Frowning, he tried several more times, but there was still no response. An uneasy feeling crept over him, and he grew increasingly anxious as he repeatedly dialed her number.Suddenly, he heard a faint ring. Following the sound, he discovered a battered phone lying by a narrow alley. At that moment, Wilson's expression turned icy. Serena was in trouble!Instantly, he remembered something and immediately called Kayden, ordering him to search for the human trafficking gang operating in Nocturna. Wilson then sped off, driving straight to the police station. The officers recognized him and led him into a small waiting room.Andrew Ziegler soon arrived. "Mr. Quade, thanks to your tip, we have identified the gang's main hideout. We are planning a sting operation to take them down.""Captain Ziegler, I am here to report that one of my very important friends has gone

Serena stared at her. "Because of what?""My… My head hurts," Mollie said.Serena turned to look and was shocked. The back of Mollie's head was covered in sticky, dark blood. No wonder she was so pale. Serena had thought it was just from fear, but it was clear she had lost a lot of blood. Still, considering how much she had bled, the fact that she was still so alert meant she wasn't in immediate danger. "Someone must have hit you on the back of your head. You're bleeding.""I don't remember… I don't even know how I got here…" Mollie curled up inside the cage, tears streaming down her face. She had never suffered like this before. Growing up, she had always been able to avoid trouble just by revealing her identity. Now that she was really in danger, she was falling apart. "Serena, what do we do? They're going to sell us. We'll die in some foreign country…""Don't be scared," Serena reassured her."I just want to go home." Mollie sobbed."Stop crying." Serena tried to comfort h
