If Melody had gone along with his plan, it would have been easy, but he brushed the thought aside. Melody was a public figure; he couldn’t tarnish her image.He began writing in his notepad again. He was targeting the company, Max, and Lisa first. Since their marriage wasn’t genuine, he could make them regret it. First, he had to make them cheat on each other. If they weren’t terrible people, they wouldn’t fall for it.Now that he had used Melody for a while, he could find another person to manipulate both Max and Lisa.A light tug on his pants snapped him out of his thoughts. He glanced down to see Bianca peering up at him.“I called that bald man,” she revealed.“Junior Torrus?&rdqu

Sprinting towards them as the man tried to kick her again, Tedmond caught the man by the arm and flipped him over, slamming his back on the floor."Eek!" the man cried out as Tedmond twisted his arm even further. "What the heck are you doing?!""How dare you treat my daughter like that?!" Tedmond demanded, about to punch the man in the face when he was surrounded by several men.Judging by their attire and demeanor, Tedmond could tell they were bodyguards. He let the man go, rose to his feet, and immediately picked up Bianca, holding her in his arms."Sorry I’m late," Tedmond told Bianca."No worries," Bianca replied."He dares to hit the young master of the Lin family!" one

Neil sneered as he heard Tedmond on the phone. “Are you trying to make a fake call to scare me? Trust me, that doesn’t terrify me because you don’t have the power to do that. When you’re done with that fake call, you should consider my request so we can come to an agreement.”Ignoring Neil, Tedmond continued, “Send all the information about Neil Lin to my phone and inform his dear father that it’s his fault the company is in such a crisis.”“Yes, young master,” Thomas replied. “He dared to ask a five-year-old girl to be his mistress. I can’t accept that!”The call ended, and Tedmond knew Thomas would be faster than necessary. After all, Bianca was like a granddaughter to him.“How dare you call me by my name?!” Neil demanded, raising his hand to strike Tedmond, but Hino grabbed him and twisted his arm.“You can’t get close to my boss or try to strike him,” Hino said. “Do you know how long I’ve wanted to do this?”The other guards tried to interfere but stood no chance against Hino.

The next morning, Tedmond sat in his room, studying at his computer when Neil barged in.“Are you seriously going to make me wear cam glasses?” Neil questioned, holding up a pair of glasses for Tedmond to see.Neil was fully dressed in black pants, a hot pink blouse, and matching pink heels. He wore makeup and a long blonde wig, looking more like a woman than before.“You should work on your voice,” Tedmond said. “And I don’t remember giving you permission to barge into my room.”Neil scoffed. “Yeah, yeah. But why do I have to enroll in your school?”“It’s the easiest way to see him,” Tedmond replied.“I hate studying.”“You don’t have to.”“Hmph.”Tedmond glanced at Neil, a sinister look creeping onto his face. He couldn't help but wonder what Max's reaction would be when he realized he'd dated a man.“From now on, your name will be Alicia Lin,” Tedmond told Neil. “I’ve prepared a fake ID for you, and your father agreed to it, too.”At the mention of his father, Neil flinched. “My fa
