Elijah held her gaze for a moment, his expression softening. The sincerity in her eyes touched something deep within him.

He opened his mouth, wanting to ask, “What do you mean?” but as the words began to form, he hesitated. “What do y—” he said softly, stopping himself mid-sentence.

Sierra noticed and turned to him, her brows furrowing slightly. “What?” she asked, her voice curious but gentle.

Elijah shook his head, a faint smile crossing his lips. “Nothing,” he said, his tone lighter now. After a brief pause, he added, “I appreciate it. Really.”

Sierra nodded, her own lips curling into a small, shy smile. She turned her gaze back to the road ahead, and Elijah did the same, his focus shifting fully to driving.

Soon, Elijah pulled up in front of Sierra’s house. He stepped out and helped her bring the bags from the trunk, setting them down on the porch. As they stood there, he glanced at her with a small smile.

“I’ll watch your live tonight,” he said warmly. “Your career is about to ch

    He slumped back into his chair, his hand running through his hair as panic set in. “I spent over a hundred thousand dollars? On a live stream?” he whispered to himself, his voice shaky. He hadn’t even realized how quickly the numbers had added up in his attempt to outdo Elijah and FlibbityBoo.Sweat beaded on his forehead as the gravity of his actions sank in. What have I done? he thought, staring at the screen. The once-proud confidence he had felt during the gifting war was now replaced by sheer regret and panic.Daniel’s heart sank further as he sat there, staring at his empty bank account. His mind raced as the full weight of what he had done began to settle. This wasn’t just his money—far from it. A wave of panic washed over him as he remembered.This was the money Dad gave me for the project... and my tuition fees were in there too!He stood up abruptly, pacing the room as the realization hit him like a ton of bricks.

    Her dad sighed, shaking his head in amazement. “Then may God bless him even more,” he said, hugging Sierra again. “And you, my daughter—you’ve made us so proud.” The room was filled with warmth and happiness as they embraced, their earlier disbelief replaced by overwhelming joy and pride for Sierra’s incredible achievement. After leaving her parents, Sierra rushed back to her room, grabbed her phone, and quickly dialed Elijah. The call barely rang once before he picked up. “Sierra?” Elijah’s calm voice came through. “What’s up?” “Elijah!” she exclaimed, her excitement bubbling over. “I just had to call you. Tonight has been unbelievable! I told my parents everything, and they were so shocked. And it’s all thanks to you and... and FlibbityBoo.” Elijah chuckled softly on the other end. “You don’t have to thank me, Sierra. You earned every bit of it. I’m just glad I could help support you.” “But Elijah, you don’t understand,” she said, her voice growing more excited. “I made

    Just then, another car pulled up a short distance from Sierra’s. A young man around the age of 27 stepped out. He was tall, well-built, and undeniably handsome, dressed in a shirt and trousers that fit him perfectly. His hair was neatly styled, and he had an air of confidence about him as he walked toward Sierra. “Sierra?” he called out, his tone smooth but friendly. Sierra, who had been leaning against her dad’s car, looked up, startled. She straightened immediately, her eyes scanning his face with confusion. “Hello? Who are you?” she asked, her voice filled with uncertainty. The man smiled warmly, his teeth flashing under the light. “I watched your live stream earlier,” he said. “I sent some gifts—quite a few, actually.” Sierra’s interest piqued, and she tilted her head slightly. “Oh, I appreciate that,” she said sincerely. “It’s just that I’m not able to remember everyone’s names.” The man chuckled, nodding. “Understandable,” he said. Then, with a playful glint in his eye, he

    Elijah shook his hand firmly, his eyes narrowing slightly as he studied Chris. “I see,” Elijah said, his tone polite but with a subtle undertone of skepticism. “It’s good to meet you, Chris.” Sierra, standing beside them, smiled innocently, oblivious to the slight tension. “Chris is one of my biggest supporters,” she said happily, still excited from her earlier conversation with him. “He’s been so amazing.” Elijah nodded slowly, his expression calm, though his sharp eyes didn’t miss the way Chris carried himself. “That’s great,” Elijah said, his tone smooth, but his mind was already working, trying to piece together the situation.Chris glanced at his watch, then at Sierra and Elijah. “I think I should leave now,” he said with a polite smile.Sierra looked surprised. “Oh, why not join us?” she asked, her tone friendly. “We were just about to get some ice cream.”Chris shook his head quickly, waving off the suggestion. “No, no, I’ve got a lot to do tonight. It was really nice meeti

    Their laughter grew as they playfully nudged their cones back and forth, sharing small bites. During the playful exchange, some of Sierra’s ice cream smeared around her lips. Elijah noticed and chuckled softly.“You’ve got a little…” he gestured vaguely to her face.“What?” Sierra asked, oblivious, as she tried to look down at her own lips.Elijah smirked and leaned in closer, his voice teasing. “Hold on,” he said, gently brushing his thumb against the corner of her mouth, smearing the remaining ice cream further.“Hey!” Sierra laughed, realizing he was only making it worse. She licked her lips dramatically, trying to clean them while glaring at him.“You missed a spot,” Elijah said with a grin, his voice light and teasing.Their laughter echoed softly in the car, the playful moment deepening.Elijah leaned back slightly, his signature playful smirk spreading across his face. “You licked my ice cream, I licked yours,” he said casually. “Looks like we kissed indirectly.”“Huh?” Sierra

    Inside, Elijah was led into a grand, elegantly furnished living area. The bodyguard gestured toward a large, luxurious couch.“Please, have a seat. I’ll go call Ms. Valencia,” he said before turning to leave.Elijah nodded. “Alright.”As he settled into the plush couch, he let his gaze wander around the room. The décor was refined, exuding wealth and power. His eyes landed on a collection of framed photographs hanging on the wall.Most of them were of Celestine—striking, confident, and effortlessly beautiful in every shot. Some captured her at formal events, dressed in elegant gowns, while others were more casual, showcasing her poised yet commanding presence.Among them, a few stood out—photos of Celestine with her father, Marcellus Valencia. The two looked composed, their resemblance undeniable. Marcellus, with his authoritative aura, stood beside his daughter, who seemed every bit his equal in stature and presence.Elijah smirked slightly, leaning back on the couch, waiting for Cel

    Elijah’s gaze flickered slightly as he spoke, “The donation? I’ll be in your office tomorrow so that we can speak about it. How about that?”“Alright, sir. I’ll expect you then,” Isla replied smoothly.With that, the call ended. Elijah lowered his phone, slipping it back into his pocket before walking back to Sierra.Elijah looked at her and asked, “So what’s the plan then?”“Should we swim?” Sierra suggested, tilting her head slightly.“Swim?” Elijah repeated before nodding. “That’s a good idea then.”“Also, tonight I’ll be going live from this side,” she added casually.Elijah nodded. “Without your equipment here, can you still?”She smiled. “Oh yeah, it’s just a normal live, not a singing live, so it’s fine. I can do it anywhere.”Elijah nodded again. “Alright then. Let me go get what I’ll use to swim.”She nodded as well and followed him inside to change.The car came to a halt in front of the police station, its doors swinging open as two officers stepped out.

    Elijah raised a brow. Her house?“Your house? Tonight? What time?” he asked. He suddenly wished he had said he had plans—if he left, Sierra would be alone for the evening.“8 p.m. will be fine. Give me a call before then,” Celestine said.“Alright.” Elijah ended the call, slipping his phone back into his pocket. Then, he turned to Sierra.“I’m sorry, I might not be available for you tonight.”Sierra nodded and said, “I don’t have a problem. Are you going to meet someone?”Elijah nodded. “Yes, I didn’t expect a call, but…”“It’s fine.” Sierra smiled at him, her tone light. “I understand. Let’s just go and eat.”Elijah held her gaze for a moment before nodding. “Alright.”He then focused back on the road ahead as Sierra smoothly maneuvered the car toward a nearby restaurant. Elijah asked the drivers in the towing truck to join them as they ate together. Later they continued. Sophia reached home, her mind clouded with frustration and bitterness. As the cab pulled up to the gate, the se

    "JUST DRIVE!" she snapped, her voice sharp and filled with frustration.The driver flinched, glancing at her through the mirror. "Uh, okay…" he muttered, clearly taken aback by her outburst.Meanwhile, in her luxurious office at Valencia Group, Celestine Valencia sat poised in front of her computer, immersed in drafting an important email.Her office was pristine, modern, and bathed in natural light from the towering windows behind her.

A pair of diamond studs adorned her ears, subtle yet undeniably expensive.Even though she looked busy, there was one name ringing in her head. “Elijah.”The mere thought of his name sent an unexplainable tension through her body.And then, the memories came rushing back.His strong hands gripping her waist.The warmth of his

    Outside, Elijah’s two newly purchased vehicles were already loaded onto a large towing truck, ready to follow them home. The sight of them neatly secured made Jacob even more pleased, knowing he had just closed a significant deal with a high-profile customer.Sierra twirled her Audi Q8 key in her fingers before unlocking the car and getting in. She adjusted her seat and buckled up while Elijah slid into the passenger seat, his usual composed demeanor in place.Just as Sierra placed her hands on the steering wheel, about to drive out, Elijah stopped her.“Wait,” he said, his voice smooth but firm. “Won’t you take some pictures?”Sierra blinked, caught off guard, before chuckling softly. “Oh… right! I should.” She stepped out of the car and pulled out her phone, taking a few pictures of herself standing beside her new Audi Q8. She made sure to capture different angles—some with the car door open, others with her hand on the wheel, and even a short video of the interior.Elijah leaned c

    Elijah nodded. “If you love it, of course. Why not?” He then turned to Jacob. “How much is it?”Jacob smiled. “The 2024 Audi Q8 is priced at $78,000 for this fully loaded version. But since it’s you, young boss, I can offer a special deal—$75,000 with all the necessary paperwork handled immediately.”Sierra’s eyes widened slightly at the price, but she remained quiet, looking at Elijah to see his reaction.Elijah turned to Sierra. “Are you okay with the price?”Sierra looked at the car again, her fingers brushing over its sleek surface before nodding. “Yeah, I can afford it.”Jacob smiled. “Perfect!”As Sierra finalized her choice, Elijah continued strolling through the garage, his sharp eyes scanning the variety of luxury vehicles. He wasn’t in a rush, simply taking in the selection.Then, his gaze landed on a striking 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado—rugged yet refined, built for both city drives and tough terrains.

    Elijah watched as more people excitedly approached Sierra, some even trying to get closer for more pictures and videos. He could see that Sierra, though polite, was starting to look overwhelmed.Stepping forward, he raised his hand slightly, his expression firm but composed. "Alright, that's enough," he said in a calm yet authoritative tone. "She's here for business, not a fan meeting. Let her be."His presence alone was enough to make some people hesitate. A few lingered, reluctant to leave, but Elijah’s sharp gaze swept over them. "You’ve had your pictures, now move along," he added.Slowly, the crowd dispersed, some whispering among themselves about how protective Elijah seemed over Sierra. As the last few people walked away, Elijah turned to Sierra. "Don’t let it bother you. Just focus on what you came here for," he said, his voice gentler now.Sierra exhaled, giving him a small smile. "Thanks."Elijah simply nodded, keeping his attention ahead as they waited for Jacob.Meanwhile,
