Proof
Adam was put on the spot, everyone's eyes on him.Ryan sneered, "Let's see how he gets out of this. Whatever gift he prepared is probably cheap. Compared to my crystal shoes and Eugene's Porsche, if he dares to show it, he'll be humiliated."Yara frowned. Natalie, however, smiled. Viola also looked at Adam. For some reason, she felt anticipation. She knew Adam's situation, and whatever he gave her—even if it was worth a dollar—she would be happy. It was a strange feeling.Adam touched his nose and stood. Under everyone's surprised gaze, he took out his gift box and handed it to Viola. "I just heard from Natalie today that you like collectibles. I went to Four Seas Antique Garden with her and picked this out."He didn't open it, just handed it to her. Viola's heart fluttered. She reached for it. But Eugene, still kneeling, saw the change in her expression. Anger flared.Before Viola could take the box, Eugene snatched it. He gave Adam a dark look.
Adam's Gift
Adam touched his nose. From the women's conversation and Ethan's previous pursuit of Viola, he could guess that the New York Bank branch manager's son was also interested in her.Natalie looked at Adam. "By the way, last time you had Adam pretend to be your boyfriend, right? Have him do it again."Viola pouted and looked at Adam. Adam was speechless—these two women were something else. And Natalie had just used him as a shield. Ethan and the others knew that. If he pretended to be Viola's boyfriend again, who would believe it?Viola looked at Adam. Adam shrugged. "I don't mind. But since I've been bouncing between you two, they won't believe it."Viola smiled bitterly. "True, they probably won't believe it. Forget it for now. Go inside and find a seat. Yara and Ryan are already here."Adam froze. "You know Yara and Ryan?"Viola nodded. "Yara, Ryan, and I were college classmates. Back then, Yara never liked Ryan, and I didn't like his personality e
Bankrupt
"So, are you still selling it?" Adam coughed.His voice snapped Natalie and Henry back to reality. Henry's voice trembled slightly. "Yes, yes, yes." But his mind was still in turmoil. He couldn't understand why this man, who used to haul luggage for his customers, now possessed a New York Bank Diamond Black Card. He himself had an account at New York Bank, but only a Silver card. This was the first time he'd seen a Diamond Black Card in person—he'd only ever seen pictures.Henry quickly took the card and handed it to the assistant. "Quick, the POS machine." His hands trembled slightly.The pretty assistant clearly didn't know what the card meant—her level couldn't access New York Bank; she'd only heard it was a place for very wealthy people to bank. She brought out the POS machine, swiped the card, and the transaction was complete.Adam closed the box, which had no fancy wrapping, smiled, and looked at Natalie. "If you're done, shall we go?"Natalie nodded woodenly, still lost in shoc
Payment
Back at Henry's shop, Natalie's face was still full of amazement. "Adam, I didn't know you knew about collectibles. How could you tell that thing was fake?"Henry had seen the scene too and looked at Adam. "I never knew. I thought you were just strong. I didn't realize you knew about collectibles."Adam smiled. He did know a thing or two—as a BLACK GOAT member, he needed some knowledge in various fields. He smiled and looked at Natalie. "Go pick out your gift.""I've prepared some pieces. Take a look," Henry said, giving Adam a deep look before turning to Natalie.Natalie was still processing Adam's exposure of Byron. Henry's words snapped her back. She glanced at Adam curiously. "I'll go pick something out."Adam looked at Henry. "While she's picking, I hope you don't mind me looking around."Henry frowned. In his mind, Adam was still the strong laborer who had done heavy lifting for him. But since Adam was with Natalie, he nodded. "Feel free to look, but don't touch. If you break so
Birthday Party Invitation
Watt Manor, one of the most expensive neighborhoods in New York and the only high-end villa district in the city. This was where Natalie lived—and now, Adam lived here too.Not far from the entrance, Adam ran out and looked around. Seeing only the usual traffic, he frowned. "Was I mistaken?" Just as he was about to enter the villa, he'd sensed a flicker of danger, but it disappeared after a few steps. Still, he decided to come out and check.He frowned, walked to a shop near the complex, bought some takeout chicken wings, and quietly observed his surroundings. But nothing seemed amiss. He picked up his order, breathed a sigh of relief, and headed home.Richard had taken good care of everything—the villa was spotless, fully equipped with everything, including bedding. The fridge was stocked with food and drinks.When Adam returned, Jerome was still excitedly exploring. Seeing Adam, he said excitedly, "My God, I never thought I'd ever have the chance to live in a place this big and luxu
Get Pregnant With Adam's Child
A pest that wouldn't go away. Another reason Adam wanted to move out of Maple Apartment was to completely cut ties with Dolores's family. He knew them too well—if Grace were still with Marcus, at least Marcus would provide them with money. But now that Marcus had dumped Grace, although he had given the mother and daughter some luxury bags and clothes, those weren't cash and wouldn't sell for much secondhand.They had lost their source of income. Dolores couldn't work. Grace, though young and educated, had been idle for three years and had never worked since graduating. She had no work experience. In this day and age, she couldn't find a high-paying job. In fact, Adam had been bringing in about twenty thousand dollars a month for them—more than Lucy had earned at United Logistics. Grace was lazy; she couldn't handle a job, and even if she worked, she'd struggle to make twenty thousand a month.So for them to maintain their previous lifestyle, or even a more affluent one, they had to co
