“Harvey definitely won’t make your medical records public. It wouldn’t benefit him at all. In fact, it would only make investors more confident in Snapp Group’s acquisition of Joss Tech.
“But we can’t just let the fact that Harvey stole your records slide! I want him to face widespread criticism. I want him to suffer in silence, unable to defend himself!”
Elara’s gaze toward Harvey was now icy and resolute. Whenshe didn’t hear Theodore’s response, she turned to look at him.
The man was leaning slightly toward her, one elbow resting casually on the steering wheel. His mesmerizing eyes could make even a dog feel adored.
Elara asked nervously, “What do you think?!”
She wanted to take Harvey down, but this also involved Theodore’s privacy.
Theodore’s thin lips curved into a faint smile. “Elara, I really like this side of you.”
“Huh?”
His sudden, heartfelt confession made Elara’s cheeks flush instantly. How did he always manage to make her heart race with just a few words?
“You’re protecting me. You won’t let Harvey humiliate me, and you want him to pay the price. Because I’m your ally, and in your eyes, I’m someone important, right?”
The air inside the car felt stifling, and Elara began to feel a little overheated.
Her gaze inadvertently fell on the agate bracelet peeking out from her sleeve. Her throat tightened, as if a thousand butterflies were fluttering, wildly in her chest.
“No one else treats me the way you do–so openly, so boldly.” As she spoke, Elara’s eyes unconsciously drifted toward Theodore’s waist.
The agate bracelet on her slender wrist felt like a heated stone, burning against her skin. In her mind, she scolded herself, “Don’t look where you shouldn’t!”
She quickly turned her face toward the window.
“Why did you suddenly decide to get that kind of surgery?”
“Of course, I know that mutt isn’t lacking in that department either. You’re not inexperienced, and naturally, you’d make comparisons. If one day you ever want to try me…
“I won’t let myself lose to any man!
Theodore’s gaze flickered past Finnegan as he spoke, “Of course, I can’t compare to someone who’s naturally gifted, but technology changes lives, and a little innovation ever hurts.
“We’re both young, not some old–fashioned relics. I’m not ashamed to visit a urologist or undergo such a procedure because your experience and feelings are what matter most.”
The oxygen in the car seemed to have been sucked dry by this utterly bewitching man.
“You’re really…” Elara searched for the right words. “Adventurous!”
Theodore grinned as if he’d just tasted honey. He leaned in deliberately, his warm breath brushing against her pink–tinged cheek. “I’m only adventurous for you.”

Elara’s ears burned instantly, the heat spreading down to her collar. fler long lashes fluttered like disturbed butterfly wings, and a shiver of tension rippled through her abdomen.
At the same time, Harvey stood frozen outside as his eyes locked on the car. He was trying to decipher the movements of the two inside.
But the tinted windows only allowed him to see vague shadows growing; closer until their outlines merged into
one.
Were they kissing? Right in front of him?

The thought made Harvey’s composure crumble. He immediately stormed toward Theodore’s sports
But just as Harvey took a few steps, the car roared to life. The sleek silver vehicle traced an elegant arc, leaving a cloud of exhaust in Harvey’s face. He waved his hand to disperse the fumes, only to see Theodore driving off with Elara, leaving him behind.
Harvey clenched his fists in frustration. Just then, Finnegan walked past him, tossing out a mocking remark. “The mighty CEO of Fisher Corp, reduced to nothing but a clown
That afternoon, Elara arrived at the kindergarten to pick up Merida.
“Sweetheart, what’s wrong?” she asked.
As soon as Merida walked out of the school gates, Elara noticed something was off with her daughter’s expression
