Willard and Olympia exchanged a glance. “Alright, Jonah, you make the arrangements.”

Milo pressed on. “Jonah, what about Bennett and Sophie? They’re targeting our family, and we can’t just let them get away with it-
“Ah!”
Before Milo could finish, a scream echoed from downstairs, coming from the maid.
They rushed out of the study and saw Leah lying at the bottom of the stairs, surrounded by shards, with blood spreading out underneath her.
“Leah!”
Olympia and the others quickly rushed to Leah’s side. “What happened?”
Willard shouted at the people nearby, “Call an ambulance, now!”
A maid explained, “Ms. Leah was on her way to the study with tea. After taking a call, she missed a step and stumbled down the stairs!”
Leah’s face was already streaked with tears, her sobs uncontrollable. “Mom, Dad, I don’t deserve to be your daughter. The Reads… The Reads did such awful things to my sister. Bennett, that b*stard, was beaten badly by the debt collectors and ended up in the hospital. And he still forced me, forced me to give him money to solve his problems, or else he would jump off a building and announce to the world that I’m his daughter, so those debt collectors would come after me
Leah was so agitated that she clutched her chest and started to gag.
“What terrible thing did I do that I end up with such a monstrous father in this life?”
“What! How dare Bennett? That sc*m!”
Willard’s face turned pale with rage. How dare Bennett do this? Was he trying to openly make an enemy of the Nelsons, to stomp their reputation into the ground?
Leah continued to cry out, her mind becoming more disoriented as she babbled incoherently. In the end, her emotions overwhelmed her, and she fainted.
Everyone in the Nelson residence was in chaos as they rushed to get Leah to the hospital.
Willard and Olympia went with her, while Jonah left to deal with Bennett. That left Milo standing alone in
the house.
He looked up at the elegant spiral staircase, his mind drifting. Amid his daze, a thought gradually formed, becoming clearer and more certain.
When Charmaine returned to her room, she was stunned to see her small bedroom recreated exactly as it was–inside Emyr’s master bedroom.
She stood there, dazed, feeling as if she were dreaming

Was this really a dream?
Unable to help herself, she pinched her arm.

“You’re still using that old trick to tell reality from a dream? Charmaine, how can you be this dumb?”
Emyr had appeared behind her without a sound, startling her.
Charmaine turned around, blinking as if still processing everything. Then, for some reason–maybe audacity–she reached out and pinched Emyr’s firm arm muscle.
Satan hissed instantly, “Charmaine!”
“I used a smarter method this time. You should be praising me. Mr. Emyr.”
Huh!
He felt more like strangling her instead!
Noticing the dangerous glint in Satan’s eyes, Charmaine quickly took two steps back.
Survival came first.
Emyr glared at her before turning toward his dressing room.
It had always been his private space, filled only with his clothes and accessories.
With Charmaine’s belongings now added, it brought a splash of color to the deep tones.
It was a bit out of place, but Satan seemed quite pleased with it.
However…
Emyr frowned, looking displeased. “Is this all the clothes you have?”
In the spacious walk–in closet, her clothes took up less than a tenth of the space.
He wasn’t sure how much clothing other women had, but judging by what Charmaine had brought over, he was certain it wasn’t a normal amount.
And everything she owned was ordinary and simple.
His gaze shifted to the dress she was wearing, and a glimmer of light danced in the depths of his dark, ink- like gaze.
Charmaine shrugged casually, “Hmm, these are enough to wear.”
Tomorrow, I’ll have Alfred take you out to buy more.”
Charmaine waved her hand. “No, no need.”
Shopping for clothes was such a hassle.
But then Emyr suddenly spoke up. “Or do you want me to go with you?”

Having Satan tag along! That would be even worse!
“Then I’ll have Alfred-”

Before she could finish, Alfred knocked on the door. “Mr. Emyr, Mr. Milo sent over some things for Ms. Nelson. Should I bring them in?”
Charmaine was confused. “What’s gotten into Milo this time?”
