Simon's expression hardened at her words. "Don't be naive, Natalie," he said icily. "I can help your family, or I can destroy your family."Natalie's fingers twisted in the fabric of her dress as she wrestled with the decision. The Clark family's crisis weighed against her dignity and principles.She drew in a steadying breath. "Mr. Hale, I'm open to other arrangements, but this isn't negotiable."Seeing her determination, Simon smirked inwardly. She wouldn't slip through his fingers. "I was only teasing, Ms. Clark. Don't take offense. Let's discuss our partnership."Natalie recognized this as merely a temporary respite, but she had no alternatives.She forced her voice to remain steady. "Thank you, Mr. Hale. I hope we can reach terms that will help resolve my family's situation."Simon gave a slight nod. "Of course. However, we'll need to iron out the specifics of our arrangement. You'll need to demonstrate your commitment, Ms. Clark.""My family will give you our full cooperation, M

Chloe maintained her composure. Her appearance with Daniel today was a conscious choice. She wouldn't let Ethan's words provoke her.She had developed genuine feelings for Daniel.He'd proven himself responsible and capable."How dare you spread lies about him here, Ethan! You're despicable!" Shirley snapped.Daniel fixed Ethan with an icy stare, emphasizing each word. "Think you can hide your dirty secrets forever, Ethan?"Ethan's heart jumped, but he kept his facade. "Stop trying to intimidate me, Daniel. The evidence proves you raped Chloe!""I chose to be with Daniel. It's none of your business," Chloe defended.The words hit Ethan like a physical blow. His face drained of color, eyes widening in disbelief."Chloe... what did you just say?" Ethan stammered, pointing at her with a trembling finger.Chloe remained steady, repeating, "I said I chose to be with him. That's my choice, not your business."Ethan struggled for breath. "Have you lost your mind, Chloe? How can you say that?

When Daniel emerged from washing up, Shirley practically dragged him to the door."Daniel, I've already got the perfect outfit in mind for you. You're going to be the most striking person at that party!" Shirley bubbled with excitement as she pulled him into the car.During the drive, Shirley chatted away about her plans while Daniel just smiled and nodded, occasionally adding a comment.At the mall, she led him straight to a high-end menswear boutique.She meticulously picked through the clothes, holding different suit jackets up against him."This one's great... oh, but this one too." After much deliberation, she finally decided on a black suit with a white shirt and navy tie."Try these on," she said, passing him the clothes.Daniel disappeared into the fitting room and emerged in the outfit.Shirley's face lit up as she clapped in delight. "Daniel, you look incredible! This is definitely the one.""Hmph, just another man living off women!" The words came from Natalie, who'd shown

But Yolanda's hand lingered on Daniel's pants.When she saw no resistance from him, she slowly unzipped them, revealing what lay beneath."Oh my god!" she gasped, her eyes widening. "That's... incredible. Are you part African or something?"Daniel didn't bother explaining. Things had already gone this far—there was no point in pretending anymore. If Yolanda wanted it, so be it.Noting Daniel's expression, Yolanda pulled her hair back into a tie and bent down.Daniel ran his fingers through her hair. She followed his lead perfectly.Daniel wasn't passive either. His hand found its way under Yolanda's skirt.She glanced up at him before continuing what she was doing.Then they got down to it.Yolanda lay across the seat, looking back at him. "Please be gentle. I've never done this before!""Never? But weren't you married?" Daniel asked."I was, but my husband died on our wedding day. His family blamed me, called me cursed, and threw me out. I haven't been with anyone since. You should f

Seeing Daniel's lack of reaction to his provocation, Simon became even more arrogant. "Daniel, are you scared? Cat got your tongue?"Shirley couldn't hold back and spoke up. "Simon, don't go too far!"Simon burst into loud laughter. "Too far? This is just the beginning! Of course, if you sleep with me, I might consider letting you, the Scott family, and Daniel off the hook!"Tristan added smugly, "That's right, today marks the end of the Scott family!"Robert shouted angrily, "Don't be so arrogant! What goes around comes around!"Meanwhile, Daniel stayed calm, but beneath his composed exterior, a storm seemed to be brewing."Let's see who dares to touch Daniel today!" Yolanda strode in with two men, her sharp, authoritative gaze commanding instant respect.The smile froze on Simon's face when he saw her. "Yolanda? What are you doing here?"Yolanda, a shareholder of Telicom Group and a prominent figure in the provincial capital, stood flanked by her bodyguards.She snorted. "If I hadn'

"Dad, what's going on? How did this happen?" Shirley's face was streaked with tears, her expression of utter despair tugging at anyone's heart.Jonathan let out a heavy sigh, his eyes clouded with helplessness and regret. "It's a trap. The Collins family joined forces with several others to bring us down. Their goal is to swallow up the Scott family."His voice was low and hoarse as if the weight of the situation had aged him overnight.Jonathan turned to Daniel, his gaze carrying a rare hint of pleading. "Daniel, I was wrong before. Please, protect Shirley. The four major families are nothing but a pack of monsters!"His voice shook, laden with worry for his daughter's future."Don't worry. As long as I'm here, no one will hurt Shirley." Daniel's tone was firm and resolute, his eyes burning with determination as if he could shield her from any storm."Good! I believe in you!" Jonathan sighed again. He had fallen into their trap, and he knew it would take years to climb out of the aby
