Chapter 41

Harvey's tone was firm. "I can turn any signed contract into worthless paper. You're welcome to take me to court and let the judge decide how much I owe you after seven years of marriage."He wanted Elara to understand—everything he had given her before was simply because of his generosity.Now that he no longer wished to give her anything, she would finally see how cruel reality could be.Yet, standing in the face of this overwhelming force, Elara felt an unprecedented calm. Because her heart was resolute."Harvey Fisher, I know power and class divisions will always exist, but you won't stay at the top forever."Harvey froze inside the CEO's office. For a moment, he thought he had misheard.Then, he found it utterly ridiculous. "Are you still dreaming, Elara? No matter how hard you work for the next 30 years, you'll never stand on equal footing with me."The gap between them had been set at birth. She was absolutely beneath him.A country girl brought to the capital at 18—so w

Elara sat in the passenger seat, feeling slightly out of place. "This car…""Seven years ago, I bought it at a Chester's Auction. I even lit the lamp to get my hands on it."Lit the lamp was an auction term, meaning that no matter how high others bid, the one who lit the lamp would always outbid them. It signified an absolute determination to win."Corona"—this very car—had set a world record for its auction price seven years ago.Elara chuckled. "So, you were the one who bought it."She reached out, running her fingers over the car's sleek body with deep nostalgia. "You know this car is…"Before she could finish, Theodore seamlessly completed her sentence. "I know—you were Corona's first owner."Not only did he know, but he had once watched her race it on the track, dominating every turn. He had seen her remove her helmet, eyes alight with exhilaration.Nothing had ever struck him more deeply than the sight of her radiant smile.Staring straight ahead at the gray, rain-soaked

Beau couldn't help but complain and continued to grumble."Beau!" Niamh's voice rang out, and Beau instantly sprang up from his seat."Niamh! Why are you late?""Because I went to buy you this!" Niamh pulled out a mechanical crossbow from behind her back."Wow!" Beau's eyes lit up as he took in the sleek, all-black weapon.Niamh smirked. She knew exactly what he liked, and understood this was something Elara would never even let him touch."Don't you feel powerful with this crossbow?"Beau eagerly grabbed it, striking a cool archery pose. "Niamh, where are the arrows? Give me the arrows!"Niamh handed him a container filled with finely crafted metal arrows.Beau marveled at their cold, metallic surface, unable to hide his excitement. "Finally, real arrows instead of plastic ones! Niamh, I really love you!""Boys should play with real crossbows and real arrows—that's how they develop a true warrior's spirit!"Unable to contain his excitement, Beau placed an arrow into the cro

Chapter 44

After seven years, Elara once again sat in Corona's driver's seat. It felt as if countless dormant cells in her body were suddenly reawakened, pulsing with energy in sync with the engine's roar.Her hands trembled slightly as she gripped the wheel, and she could hear the rapid pounding of her own heart. For the first time in a long while, she felt truly alive.Seated in the passenger seat, Theodore relished the raw power of acceleration.Today, the Corona was different—it had been reborn in Elara's hands."Go ahead, speed all you want. I'll cover the tickets."Elara suppressed the thrill surging inside her. "No need. If I get caught speeding, it's my license that'll take the hit."Corona tore through the highway, its roar drawing the attention of pedestrians."What just flew past?""Was that a swallow? It zipped by in a flash!""In this season? No way! I think I just saw a ghost!"People on the sidewalks murmured among themselves.On the road ahead, a group of wealthy young

Chapter 45

At the entrance of the classroom, a dozen bodyguards surrounded Finnegan. Standing at the foot of the steps, Harvey exuded an imposing aura, looking at Finnegan as if he were nothing more than an insignificant ant beneath his feet."Bambi, come here. You're coming home with me," Harvey commanded sternly. He had already lost patience when Bambi hesitated and moved toward Finnegan instead.Bambi shook her head at Harvey. "I want to go home with Uncle Finn."Harvey let out a cold, dismissive laugh. "And where exactly is he taking you? Does he even have a home? Bambi, if you go with him, you'll be sleeping on the streets!""Mommy!" Bambi's voice rang out as Elara appeared.Bambi waved excitedly upon seeing her mother, but with Harvey's bodyguards blocking the way, she couldn't run to her."Mommy!"Elara's heart ached with guilt. "Mommy got delayed. I'm so sorry, Bambi. I promise this will never happen again."Bambi, ever understanding, reassured her, "I know, Mommy! You had somethi

Chapter 46

"Theodore!" Elara gasped in alarm.Still nestled in Theodore's arms, Bambi hadn't yet grasped what had happened.Theodore looked down at her with concern. "Are you hurt, Bambi?"She blinked her large, dark eyes and shook her head. Only when she got up did she finally see the metal arrow lodged in Theodore's back.Her pupils trembled, and she drew in a sharp breath. Looking up, she spotted Beau in the distance, instinctively hiding the crossbow behind his back.She recognized that arrow—Niamh had given it to him!Harvey hadn't expected Beau to do something like this either. His expression turned ice-cold, not just because his son had hurt someone, but because of who Theodore had instinctively protected.His hands clenched into fists as he bellowed, "Beau Fisher, get over here!"Beau flinched, visibly shaken. "I just wanted to help you, Daddy! Bambi wouldn't listen!"Bambi's shoulders stiffened. The Beau in front of her now felt like a complete stranger. Harvey snatched the cros

Theodore sighed dramatically. "By the time an ambulance arrives, I'll have bled out. Mr. Fisher, are you trying to get rid of me?"His condition was serious, and Elara had no patience to argue with Niamh any longer."Get off! Stop wasting time and running your mouth!""If you get into an accident…"Before Niamh could finish, an invisible pressure seemed to envelop her. When she met Elara's gaze, a chill ran down her spine, and she nearly lost her balance despite sitting firmly on the bike.She had never felt such an intimidating, almost chilling presence from Elara before. A sense of unease crept into Niamh's heart."Elara, I'm warning you—don't act recklessly.""You're the one dragging this out, Niamh! That's not like you."Niamh pouted. If Elara wanted to throw her life away, so be it. She wouldn't stop her. She even hoped she'd crash face-first and break her nose and teeth!Reluctantly, Niamh dismounted the bike.Elara then extended her hand. "Give me the keys."Niamh tos

Chapter 48

Beau was so frightened by Harvey's overwhelming presence that his eyes filled with tears.Niamh quickly comforted him. "Beau, you and Bambi are siblings. She'll definitely forgive you!"She glanced at Harvey, and said in a light and teasing tone, "I always thought Theodore looked approachable, but his personality is even colder than yours."Who would've thought he'd risk his life to save someone? That's rare."Drawing out the last syllable, she then added, "By the way, I noticed Elara getting out of Theodore's car earlier. Since when did those two become so close?"Hey! Harvey, wait for me!"Niamh saw Harvey turn and walk away without even acknowledging her words. She quickly chased after him.…At the hospital, Theodore was placed on the operating table.Lying on his stomach, he smirked at the lead surgeon. "You can charge me double for the surgery—I'll make the Fishers cover the bill."The surgeon, who was an old acquaintance, sliced open Theodore's shirt with a scalpel whi

Chapter 49

Bambi stood frozen, her young heart reeling from the shock.Had she done something wrong?If she had obediently gone back to the Fisher family with her father, Theodore wouldn't have been hurt.But the one who had shot an arrow at her was her own brother, someone she had once been so close to. Over time, as their physical differences grew, Beau's attitude toward her had worsened.And she had realized that, within the Fisher family, aside from her mother treating them equally, even her father favored Beau more."Beau! Even if you apologize, I will never forgive you!" Bambi shouted.She turned to Harvey. "Daddy, can I stop being your daughter? What do I have to do to never go back to the Fisher family again?"She longed to break free, but she didn't know how. Harvey's face turned as cold as if it had been sealed under layers of frost."Bambi! Your last name is Fisher! You will always be my daughter! You are a part of the Fisher family!""Then… Then can I change my last name?" Ba

Chapter 50

"Theodore, you—" Niamh was stunned as she exclaimed in disbelief.Her eyes darted around before she smirked. "Are you interested in my sister as a person, or are you more interested in her as Harvey's wife?"Elara and Harvey are still in the process of divorcing—do you think this is the perfect time to enjoy the thrill of an affair without facing too much criticism?"She wore an expression that suggested she had seen right through Theodore.At that moment, the entire hospital room felt like a walk-in freezer. The oppressive aura radiating from Harvey was so intense that even Beau's legs trembled.Theodore's sharp, fox-like eyes turned cold. "Did you crawl out of a history museum? You could conjure up more stories than a medieval tapestry."Niamh stammered, "I—""Funny how some people blurt out their own thoughts as if they're exposing someone else's."Niamh's face stiffened, and she retorted weakly, "You're obviously talking about yourself!""You'd know best, wouldn't you?"
