The steel bat stopped less than an inch from Aria Bell’s leg, suspended in the air like a threat frozen in time.

The entire basement fell into a sudden, suffocating silence.

Every head turned toward the heavy metal door that had been burst open, the armed gangsters instinctively tightening their grips on their weapons.

The heavy metal door still swayed on its hinges, letting out a long, groaning creak that echoed throughout the underground compound.

Two men stood calmly at the entrance, their co

    Morning sunlight streamed through the tall windows of the Lockwood Manor, filling the dining room with a warm golden glow.The aroma of freshly brewed coffee and toasted bread lingered pleasantly in the air, yet the atmosphere around the breakfast table was anything but cheerful.Amelia sat quietly, absentmindedly stirring the coffee in front of her without taking a single sip. Her beautiful brows were knitted together, her thoughts clearly elsewhere.Across from her, Lisa was still fuming."I still can't believe Rebecca had the nerve to act like that!" She stabbed her fork into a sausage with far more force than necessary."She acts like she's some kind of queen. No... A queen would probably have better manners. She was just an arrogant snob. The way she looked down on your family... the way she kept mocking you..."Lisa clenched her fists. "I swear, the next time I see her, I'm going to—""Lisa." Amelia interrupted softly. "That's enough."Lisa immediately deflated. "But Amelia…""I

    The atmosphere inside the VIP showroom had changed completely.Just moments ago, Sebastian had been treated as nothing more than an ordinary customer. Now, no one dared look at him the same way again.Helen was the first to recover from her shock, and the professional composure she had struggled to maintain earlier melted away, replaced by deep, genuine respect.She took a slow breath before straightening her posture and offering Sebastian a respectful bow.“Sir, my deepest apologies for the unpleasant experience you encountered today.”“Crown & Velvet sincerely regrets allowing such a dispute to disturb your shopping experience.”“Please allow me to personally ensure everything is packaged to perfection.” Helen said, her tone noticeably more respectful than before.After witnessing the Heavenly Dragon Card and the effortless twenty-million-dollar transaction, she no longer viewed Sebastian as an ordinary customer.Nicolas Montclair and Lacy stood frozen on the side, their faces burni

    The tense atmosphere inside the VIP showroom had attracted the attention of nearly everyone on the floor.Several wealthy patrons had quietly gathered at a distance, pretending to browse the surrounding displays while secretly watching the confrontation unfold with great interest.Even a few sales representatives had paused what they were doing, stealing curious glances toward the commotion.The elegant middle-aged manager, Helen Prescott, stepped forward calmly, her black business suit immaculate despite the hurried pace at which she had arrived.Beside her stood Yvelte Laurent, who remained silent from beginning to end, her clear eyes calmly observing the room.The moment Nicolas saw her, the irritation on his face eased slightly, and a trace of respect replaced it as he nodded politely."Miss Laurent. I didn't expect to see you here today."“Nicolas, it is indeed a surprise.” Yvelte said as she looked at him briefly while returning the greeting with a small nod.“Miss Laurent," Dais

    Mabel wore a confident smile as she guided the elegant couple, Nicolas Montclair and his fiancée, Lacy Han, through the innermost section of Crown & Velvet's VIP showroom.“Our Crown of Eternity Collection would be perfect for an occasion as meaningful as a two-year anniversary, Young Master Montclair,” she said warmly.“Master Laurent personally designed it, and there is only one complete set in existence.”Lacy's green eyes lit up immediately.“I've seen pictures of it online before, but I didn’t know it was still available," she said excitedly, tightening her grip around Nicolas' arm.“It was placed on display only recently, and very few customers are even permitted into this section.” Mabel replied proudly.“I'm certain you'll love it.”The three stopped before the crystal display, and Mabel's smile froze.“...Huh?”The display pedestal was empty, and only the velvet stand remained underneath the golden spotlight.“That's...” She stared blankly at the vacant display for a moment b

    Daisy led Sebastian toward an elegant crystal display near the center of the showroom. Inside, dozens of exquisite necklaces rested on black velvet cushions beneath warm golden spotlights.She unlocked the case swiftly before carefully lifting out the first piece.“This is one of our best-selling collections, sir.”She held it up delicately, allowing the diamonds to catch the light.“The centrepiece is a natural pink diamond from the Argyle mines, surrounded by white sapphires.”“It was designed by Master Lorenzo Vieri, one of Italy's most celebrated jewellery designers.”“It is a collection that our female clients are really satisfied with, and it is priced at $480,000.” She smiled confidently.Sebastian examined it quietly for a few seconds before shaking his head.“Show me another one.”Daisy's professional smile remained unchanged, and she carefully returned it before retrieving another.“This piece is rather special.”“The emerald at its center was sourced from Colombia and paire

    Bruce was still driving in silence towards the Nine Dragons Pavilion, the powerful engine of the Cadillac Escalade-V humming smoothly.The morning sun had fully risen now, bathing the city in a warm golden light that filtered through the tinted windows.Sebastian sat in the back seat, his expression cold and contemplative as he gazed out at the passing scenery.The luxurious leather interior felt almost too comfortable after the brutality of the previous night, yet his mind was far from at ease.As the car continued its steady journey, a thought suddenly crossed Sebastian’s mind.He remembered his engagement to Amelia, and he frowned faintly.He had accepted the engagement without much resistance, yet after everything that had happened over the past few days, he suddenly realized something.He had never gotten Amelia an engagement gift.He wasn't particularly knowledgeable about relationships, nor had he ever cared much for ceremonies and traditions.Still, since the engagement already
