71. Unfounded Accusations
“You’re so nice, Sir Angelo. I’m sure Letty is extremely grateful for the gift you’ve given her,” Victor said sweetly, leaning forward with an sweet smile.Angelo’s lips curved upward.The smile was clean and polite but it was also a little stiff at the corners.“It’s for charity,” he said evenly. “If it helps, then it’s money well spent.”Victor nodded eagerly, satisfied, then slowly turned his attention across the table.His expression hardened as his gaze locked onto Adrian.“You know,” Victor said, voice smooth but sharpened with intent, “what you did just now is actually illegal.”Everyone at the table looked at him, and then at Adrian.Sofia’s spine went rigid.“…Illegal?” she thought, her heart pounding. “What does he mean illegal?”She looked at Adrian’s phone, then at his face, then back at Victor. Her palms grew damp under the table.Letty, on the other hand, barely reacted.She turned her head slightly, eyes settling on Victor with a look that was neither alarmed nor curiou
72. Exceeding Expectations
The phone vibrated once, then again.Adrian lowered it from his ear without saying anything. He did not look around the table and he did not rush. He unlocked the phone, opened the app Hale had just sent him access to, and navigated to the account overview in a straightforward sequence of taps. There was no hesitation in his movements and no pause that suggested calculation or second thoughts. Once the screen loaded, he placed the phone flat on the table, face up, where everyone could see it clearly.The number sat there in plain text.$802,417,936.28For a brief moment, nobody spoke.Not because they had missed it, but because their minds needed time to adjust to what they were seeing.Letty was the first to truly register it.Her expression did not change dramatically, but her focus sharpened as her eyes traced the number again, slower this time. Eight hundred million. Not valuation. Not projected net worth. It was literal cash sitting in an account.“…One of my accounts,” she thou
73. "I Missed You"
They left not long after.Adrian excused himself, Sofia followed, and they walked out without anyone trying to stop them or say anything more. Once they were outside, the noise from inside dulled behind them, turning into something distant and easier to ignore.Sofia let out a slow breath.She hadn’t realized how tight her chest felt until it eased.They walked a short distance before Adrian spoke.“Sorry about that,” he said. “I didn’t expect that we’d have to deal with stuck up elitists.”Sofia looked at him, a little surprised.“…He’s apologizing to me?” she thought.She shook her head. “It’s not your fault,” she said. “Victor was being an ass. That’s on him, not you.”She hesitated, then added, almost sheepishly, “And honestly… even if he was being an ass, the food was actually really good. Weird, but good. I don’t think I’ve ever eaten anything like that before.”Her lips curved into a small smile as the memory surfaced again.The bone. The toast. The tastes that had caught her o
74. Cutiepie In The Past
“Adrian.”The moment he heard his name, he snapped out of it instantly.Adrian took a step back, the movement sharp and reflexive, as if he had pulled his hand away from something hot. His head turned toward the direction the voice had come from, his expression resetting into something neutral and controlled.The space between them returned all at once.Sofia stayed where she was.Her chest felt tight.“…Timing,” she thought bitterly. “It’s always the timing.”Disappointment settled first, followed closely by a quieter, heavier sadness that she didn’t quite know what to do with. She lowered her gaze for a moment, then forced herself to look up again.Letty stepped into view a second later.She looked between them briefly, but there was no suspicion in her eyes, no sharpness or tension. If she noticed anything unusual, she didn’t show it.“I’ve got a limousine arranged,” she said casually. “We can drop you off first, Sofia, then Adrian and I will head back.”Sofia nodded automatically.
75. A Different Victor
The car slowed and came to a stop.Sofia stepped out first.She turned back with a bright smile, waved once, and thanked Letty again before the door closed behind her. The limousine pulled away smoothly, the sound of the engine fading as it turned the corner.Her smile didn’t last.The moment the car disappeared from view, her expression shifted, the brightness draining out of it as if it had never been there in the first place. She stood there for a few seconds longer than necessary, eyes fixed on the empty stretch of road.“…Lucky,” she thought. “She’s lucky, being able to stay in the same house as Adrian…”Jealousy crept in quietly, mixing with something heavier and harder to shake. She watched until she could no longer see the car, then finally exhaled and turned toward her apartment building.The door closed behind her.---The limousine stopped again not long after.Letty and Adrian stepped out together.The first thing Adrian noticed was the other car parked nearby. He recogniz
76.Letty's Fantasies Out of Control
Victor noticed Adrian move and instantly turned to look at him, only to see that playful smirk on his face.“I’ve been staying with Letty for the past few days,” Adrian said casually, his tone light, almost conversational, as if he were sharing something random rather than dropping a grenade into the room.Victor froze, his body stiffening as he slowly blinked and digested the information. Letty froze too.“Oh?” Victor said, eyes narrowing slightly, interest flickering to life despite himself.Adrian continued without missing a beat. “She’s really loud at night.”Victor’s expression shifted instantly, his brain filling in gaps that were never meant to exist. His eyebrows rose, his lips parting just slightly as the implication settled in the most inappropriate way possible.“…Loud,” Victor repeated, clearly pleased with the conclusion he had jumped to.Letty lying in bed, doing whatever with Adrian while she moaned loudly. Letty’s face flushed immediately.“What?” she blurted out, her
77. Mira's Call
Adrian woke up to his phone vibrating insistently against the bedside table.For a brief moment, he considered ignoring it. His body was still heavy with sleep and the room was dim, the clock on the wall showing just past six in the morning. Then his eyes focused on the caller ID and his frown deepened.Mira.She never called this early.That thought alone was enough to clear his head. He picked up the phone and answered before it could ring again.“Mira?” he said, his voice rough but alert.She didn’t respond right away. All he could hear was breathing, uneven and broken, followed by a soft sniff that told him something was wrong long before she found the words.She was crying.Adrian sat up immediately, the last traces of sleep disappearing as his back straightened and his grip on the phone tightened. His mind shifted gears without hesitation, moving into a calm, focused state he had learned to rely on whenever things went wrong.“Mira,” he said again, more firmly this time. “What h
78. The Suspicious Group
Adrian pressed the button on the key fob as they stepped outside. A soft beep echoed across the parking area, followed by a brief flash of lights from one of the cars parked nearby. He walked toward it without comment, unlocked the door, and got in. Letty followed, closing the door behind her as Adrian started the engine and pulled out smoothly.The drive was quiet.The city was just beginning to wake up, traffic still light, streets stretching ahead with long gaps between cars. Adrian kept his eyes on the road, his hands steady on the wheel. Letty sat beside him, staring forward at first, then shifting slightly in her seat as if weighing something.She turned her head toward him, opened her mouth, then closed it again.Adrian noticed.He glanced at her briefly, then back to the road, waiting without prompting her. He could tell when someone was trying to decide whether to speak, and he had learned long ago that silence was often the fastest way to force a decision.Letty took a breat
79. Mark's Information
They were just about to leave when Adrian’s phone vibrated again.He glanced at the screen and answered immediately.“Mark.”“I’ve compiled everything,” Mark said. “This is as clean as I can make it with what we have right now. I’m sending the files over, but I’ll walk you through it so nothing gets lost.”Adrian leaned back in his chair, one arm resting against the table, his expression neutral as he listened.“The three guys from the basketball game all fit the same profile,” Mark continued. “Humble background. No family backing. Sports scholarships that only covered part of their tuition. The rest was loans. Housing loans. Living expenses. Interest piling up from the first year itself.”Adrian didn’t interrupt.“They weren’t top tier prospects,” Mark went on. “Good enough to get noticed, not good enough to be secure. Injuries pushed them over the edge. Once their performance dipped, they were staring at debt with no safety net and no backup career.”Mark paused briefly before conti
80. Chaos
Both Adrian and Ethan turned toward her.“What?” Ethan asked, stopping mid-step.“There’s a guy I know,” Aira continued slowly. “Well, not know personally, but I remember him clearly. Third year. Commerce department.”Adrian stayed silent, listening.“He used to be really smart,” she said. “Top grades. But he was a pushover. People bullied him all the time. Took his notes, made him run errands, talked over him like he wasn’t even there.”She paused.“About a year ago, he disappeared for almost a month.”Ethan frowned. “Disappeared how?”“Just… gone,” Aira replied. “No classes. No sightings. People said he got beaten up badly and had to be hospitalized, but no one knew for sure.”Adrian’s posture shifted subtly, his attention sharpening.“When he came back,” Aira said, her voice tightening slightly, “he was completely different.”She looked down at her hands for a moment, then back up.“He used to wear glasses. Thick ones. After that month, he didn’t need them anymore. His body changed
