Eva was initially taken aback by Robert's revelation, but then a sense of relief washed over her. To her, it didn't matter how many girlfriends Edward had. The crucial point was that he wasn't married. She couldn't help but chuckle at Robert's accidental disclosure. "Well, that's good to know. Thank you, Robert. You've been very helpful."Robert, realizing he had shared more than he intended, blushed slightly. "My apologies, Miss Eva. I'll go and wake up Boss now."With that, Robert quickly excused himself and headed to Edward's room. He wondered how Edward would react when he found out about their conversation.Edward, still half-asleep, listened to Robert's report about Eva's request to go shopping and make a salon appointment. Although he was hesitant about Eva leaving the house, he recognized the importance of her preparations for the mission.So, Edward instructed Robert to summon the city of Grey's finest makeup and styling team, ensuring Eva would have the best beauty experts

The sudden confrontation caught the attention of nearby guests, and a hushed silence fell over the area as they observed the unfolding drama. Eva clearly displeased with Sam's possessiveness and forceful behavior. With a swift motion, she pushed Sam's hand off Edward's shoulder and glared at him, her voice laced with anger. "What do you think you're doing, Sam?"Sam, though momentarily caught off guard, stayed composed. He gave Edward a measured look before replying, "I just want to know who this man is, Eva. We haven't seen each other in a while, but now you show up with a stranger."Eva's eyes narrowed as she responded firmly, "Whoever he is, it's none of your business. You have no right to manhandle him like that."Edward, though a bit surprised by the sudden turn of events, remained composed. He placed a calming hand on Eva's arm and said in a low tone, "It's okay. Let's not make a scene. We're here to enjoy the event, remember?"Eva, still upset but realizing that making a scene

Governor Simon faltered in his words, realizing that Edward was, in fact, the owner of Titan Energy. While it might not wield the same level of power as Petrocorp, Titan Energy still held significant influence, particularly with Edward having the president's secretary by his side.Simon had no idea how to persuade him to let go of Sam, but he tried to appeal to Edward’s sense of reason and respect. "Mr. Edward, I understand that you are upset by Sam’s behavior, but please don’t make things worse. You are a guest in my home, and I respect you as a business partner and a friend of the president. Please show some mercy and release him."Edward looked at Simon with a hint of contempt. He was not impressed by Simon’s plea, nor did he care about his relationship with him. To him, he had only come to the party as a favor to Eva, who had asked him to accompany her.He said, "Governor, I appreciate your hospitality, but I don’t appreciate your interference. This is between me and Sam. He has i

Exactly 15 minutes later, Albert Miller arrived, followed by a dozen burly individuals, all armed. Albert, who was perceptive, could sense that his son was in trouble; otherwise, Governor Simon wouldn't have sounded so alarmed.Albert Miller entered the room with swift and determined strides. He spotted his son, Sam, standing in a corner with a pale face. He also noticed a young man seated casually in a chair, a sardonic smile playing on his lips. Furthermore, he saw Eva, standing beside the young man, wearing an expression of concern and confusion."Sam!" Albert Miller exclaimed, rushing toward his son. "Are you okay?"Sam ran to his father and embraced him tightly. "Dad, I'm so glad you're here. I was really scared."Albert Miller gently stroked his son's hair, then turned his piercing gaze toward Edward. "Who is he?"Sam looked at his father with teary eyes. “That’s him, Dad,” he said, pointing towards Edward. "That’s Edward, the owner of Titan Energy. He dared to humiliate me in p

Eva was shocked by Edward’s reaction. She felt hurt and rejected by him.She did not understand why he was acting like this. She did not understand why he was pushing her away.Meanwhile, Edward heard Eva’s words, but he did not feel anything. He only felt hatred and disgust for her."Aaargh!" Edward felt a sharp pain in his head again, and this time it was more painful. He felt like his brain was being torn apart by a powerful force. He did not know what and why this was happening.He screamed in agony, and fell to the floor. He curled up into a ball, and clutched his head with his hands.Eva saw Edward collapsing to the floor, and felt a surge of panic. She ran towards him, and knelt down beside him."Edward, Edward, what’s wrong?" Eva asked, as she tried to comfort him. "Please, talk to me!"But Edward did not hear Eva’s words. He only heard a loud ringing sound in his ears. He only saw a bright flash of light in his eyes. He felt like he was losing consciousness.[Ding!]But then,
