There was a faint trace of self-mockery in Scarlett's voice.

Deep down... she had still held onto the smallest sliver of hope.

Hope that Mossa would finally see Sadie for who she really was.

Hope that-just once-she would look at her, her real daughter, with fairness.

No matter how cold Mossa had been in the past... she was still her mother.

And what child doesn't want their mother's love?

Scarlett had thought that today-after laying out all the evidence-Mossa would regret everything she had don

    The next morning—“Good morning, Sis!”The moment Dakota walked downstairs, Liam’s bright childish voice instantly lifted her mood.She smiled faintly and ruffled his soft hair.“Morning.”Then gently:“Did you eat breakfast yet?”Liam quickly grabbed her hand and dragged her toward the dining room excitedly.“Look!” His eyes sparkled proudly. “I made breakfast for you!”Dakota froze slightly when she saw the sandwiches and warm milk arranged neatly on the table.Her nose suddenly stung. Not because she was touched by the gesture—But because it hurt.The way Liam moved…The practiced motions…This clearly wasn’t his first time doing something like this.Which meant—While living with the Lancasters, this eight-year-old child had probably been taking care of himself for years.Dakota slowly crouch

    Inside—Sean Mercer was kneeling on the bed while pinning the terrified girl beneath him.The sudden intrusion startled him completely.“What the hell—?!”The moment Dakota saw the scene clearly, rage exploded inside her.Without hesitation—She crossed the room in two strides and kicked Sean directly into the wall.CRASH.“What—who are you?!”Sean barely managed to speak before Dakota slammed the edge of her hand against his neck.Instantly—He collapsed unconscious across the bed.The girl trembled violently beneath the sheets, desperately trying to retreat further away in terror.Dakota’s eyes softened slightly.Poor kid.She quickly grabbed a blanket and wrapped it securely around the girl before lifting her carefully onto her back.Then the three escaped the villa while avoiding every remaining guard.

    At a time like this…Anything important enough to drag Sean Mercer out into the open was bound to be filthy.Instantly, Dakota Lancaster became interested.“Location.”As if he had already expected her answer, Nathan Drakov raised an eyebrow faintly.“Black Forest.”“…Another nightclub?”Dakota frowned immediately.She had yet to develop a pleasant impression of places like that.Wednesday night arrived quickly.To match the atmosphere of the venue, Dakota deliberately chose a sleek black strapless evening dress paired with dangerously high stilettos.The dress perfectly emphasized her figure—Elegant.Cold.Lethal.When Nathan arrived to pick her up, even his gaze paused for half a second.The two arrived at Black Forest Club shortly afterward.Unlike ordinary clubs, however, Black Forest felt strangely quiet.The name suited it perfect

    “P-President Lancaster, please… let me explain!”Ethan’s face had gone completely pale.If he’d still held even the slightest doubt about Dakota before—It vanished completely now.A woman capable of uncovering records he had hidden so carefully was absolutely not someone ordinary.Dakota slowly rose from her chair.Even though she stood half a head shorter than Ethan, the pressure radiating from her completely crushed him.She narrowed her eyes dangerously before closing the file with one sharp motion.“I already said it once.”Her voice was calm.“I don’t care what you did before today.”She stepped closer slightly.“But from this point forward…” Her gaze sharpened. “I only want people who are fully loyal to K Group.”Ethan froze.He had already mentally prepared himself to be fired—or worse.In the corpo

    Chief Adjutant Reid drove around the entire K Group building once before finally circling back.Just as expected—The luxury cars crowding the entrance earlier had already disappeared.As the car slowly stopped near the front gates, Reid was about to step out when a security guard suddenly marched over aggressively.“Hey!” The guard slapped the hood lightly. “Do you people even know where this is?”His voice dripped with arrogance as he glared through the lowered window.One glance at Reid’s plain black clothes and rugged appearance was enough for the man to sneer openly.In his eyes, Reid looked like some laborer fresh off a construction site.Instantly, his expression turned even more contemptuous.“If you know what’s good for you, get lost.”He pointed toward the building proudly.“Our president is arriving today. If you offend someone important, can you even afford

    Despite everything, the embarrassment on Sophie’s face was impossible to hide.Still unwilling to give up, she subtly tugged down the neckline of her dress, exposing more cleavage before swaying toward Chief Adjutant Reid deliberately.She had barely opened her mouth when Reid frowned sharply and stepped aside to avoid her entirely.The rejection hit Sophie like a slap. Humiliation and anger instantly flooded her face.Meanwhile, after hearing Reid’s explanation over the phone, Dakota immediately understood what was happening.Her lips curved faintly.Interesting.Her dear uncle really had no shame left at all, he’d actually tried pushing his daughter toward Reid?“Don’t bother with them,” Dakota said calmly.Reid visibly relaxed after hearing her response.The second the call ended, he looked coldly at Sophie, who was still trying to act seductive.“Throw them out.”Sophie fr

    Half an hour later, Rhys returned with the results."Boss, it's confirmed. Miss Hayes served the full five years. She was only released recently, after completing her sentence."Darrel spread his hands with theatrical flair. "See? I told you. Total waste of time digging into that."

    "Heartless biological mother?"Scarlett looked puzzled.She didn't know much about Theo's past, but from the few things Theron had said-and the way he reacted-it was obvious Theo's birth mother was definitely not a good person."She's not."Theron walked in with a dark express

    Sadie bit her lip, and tears instantly rolled down her cheeks. She looked so pitiful and wronged that anyone watching would melt."I'm sorry, Mom... I was wrong. I admit I lied, but-but please listen to me. I really didn't mean any harm. I just... I just didn't want my sister to suffer at th
