composure.
Matthew listened intently to her words, a note of solemnity in his expression as he heard her repeat, “I hate you all.”
He wondered if she was referring to Curtis and Melanie. If indeed she was, Matthew thought it trivial to deal with them– mere nuisances he could dismiss with a flick of his fingers.
However, he understood that Aurelia preferred to handle matters on her own terms. Opting for discretion, he decided it best to feign ignorance for the m

In the subsequent days, life became markedly more difficult for Aaron after he had transferred the last of his funds from his card.
Having been accustomed to dining at Michelin– starred establishments, he now found himself relegated to quick, unremarkable meals at the office cafeteria.
His colleagues, who had once been overly flattering, seemed to have caught wind of his family’s financial woes and had begun to subtly probe him for information.
Particularly noticeable was the shift in office dynamics following the return of Xavier from a business trip. Those who once sought Aaron’s favor were now

The thought of losing everything sent him into a panic.
Brace yourself, there’s a high chance the company might go under. But rest assured, Dad and I will do our utmost to revive it from the brink of collapse,”
After a pause, he chose to end the conversation, leaving Aaron lost in his own troubled thoughts in the silence of his office.
Could it be… we’re about to lose everything?
That evening, Aaron returned to his now mostly empty villa. With both his father and Benjamin virtually living at the office, and Spencer busy with filming
As he walked in, Luna invited him to dinner with a lack of enthusiasm, “Come join us for dinner.”
Melanie, sitting at the table, seemed to have lost her appetite; the food at home had been uninspiring lately, lacking variety and flavor.
When their eyes met, Melanie quickly looked away, her action tinged with a hint of shyness after seeing Aaron.
Noticing this, Aaron felt a boost in his spirits. No matter how distant others at the company had become. Melanie would never treat him so coldly.
After a light chuckle, he joined them at the table. During the meal, Aaron and Melanie exchanged covet glances, silently communicating through their eye

Luna spoke in a rather ordinary tone, but to Melanie, it grated on her nerves.

“I’m done eating. Mom. I’m going upstairs to rest,” Melanie announced with a hint of sadness in her voice as she rose from the table and ascended the stairs.
Seeing this, Aaron also excused himself. “Mom, Mel seems upset, I’ll go check on her.”
