Yolanda smacked Adriana lightly. \u201cYou little brat. How do you get all these guys? Matthew\u2019s good\u2013looking too.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana quickly shut that down. \u201cHe\u2019s a jerk.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yolanda curled her lips. \u201cSo am I.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can\u2019t just lower your standards like that,\u201d Adriana said, wearing a look that said, Please don\u2019t lower yourself.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yolanda burst out laughing. \u201cWhat are you thinking? I\u2019m not that desperate.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAdriana! Yolanda!\u201d Denton ran up from behind, clearly anxious. \u201cI heard Curtis was in a car accident. I came to see him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re the biggest winner if Curtis gets into an accident, aren\u2019t you?\u201d Adriana blocked Denton and shoved him lightly. \u201cHe doesn\u2019t want to see you. Leave.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton looked wronged. \u201cAdriana \u2026 this has nothing to do with me. I\u2019m just worried about Curtis.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf it weren\u2019t for you, he\u2019d still be the CEO of Lincoln Group. Who would dare ram his car then? Just cut the act,\u201d Adriana said loudly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton stood there, looking hurt. He still wanted to explain, but Adriana had already pulled Yolanda away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Not far away, Savannah walked over and looked at Denton. \u201cNo matter what you do, they\u2019ll never truly accept you. Instead of letting them doubt you, prove yourself. Only if you truly lead Lincoln Group beyond Curtis\u2019s achievements will he finally look at you seriously. Otherwise\u00a0<\/p>\n
he\u2019ll always look down on you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton was silent for a long time before speaking. \u201cReally? As long as I surpass Curtis, he\u2019ll finally see me\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cPeople only notice those stronger than themselves.\u201d Savannah nodded.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton lowered his head, murmured to himself, then clenched his fists. \u201cI will surpass him!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Watching Denton turn and leave, Savannah lifted the corner of her mouth and followed after him.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a corner, Adriana and Yolanda were hiding. After Denton and Savannah left, the two of them nodded knowingly. \u201cI told you Savannah was suspicious. She\u2019s clearly stirring trouble.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana nodded as well. \u201cBut Savannah is Ernest\u2019s daughter. Ernest watched Curtis grow up. How could his daughter-\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yolanda patted Adriana on the shoulder. \u201cNever trust anyone. Just like right now, I might be standing on your side this second, and I could flip the next.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana looked at Yolanda nervously. \u201cDon\u2019t scare me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yolanda laughed. \u201cIt\u2019s a metaphor. A metaphor, okay? Relax. My dad\u2019s little business could go bankrupt tomorrow, and I\u2019d still survive. I don\u2019t need to sell anyone out.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana hugged Yolanda, touched. \u201cYolanda, you\u2019re really the best.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen dump Curtis and be with me,\u201d Yolanda teased.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana laughed as she walked back with Yolanda and ran into Matthew on his way out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew looked at Adriana, wanting to speak but holding back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
From far away, he\u2019d seen Adriana and Yolanda laughing together.\u00a0<\/p>\n
During those four years with him, Adriana had no friends, no social life. She\u2019d been trapped b his side, trapped in that house\u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n
He couldn\u2019t remember her ever laughing like that.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAdriana,\u201d Matthew called out, his voice hoarse.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He truly regretted it. If I treated Adriana better back then\u2026 would things have turned out differently?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Langford, take care,\u201d Adriana said calmly. She took Yolanda\u2019s hand and walked past Matthew without a hint of hesitation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew lowered his gaze and smiled bitterly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sometimes he wondered if Adriana would come back to him if Curtis died.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But now, he hesitated. Even if Curtis died, Adriana probably wouldn\u2019t return to him.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Yolanda had left. Adriana went in alone. \u201cBefore Harold passed, he arranged for a girl named Savannah to stay by Denton\u2019s side. That Savannah seems problematic. She\u2019s deliberately trying to drive a wedge between you and Denton.\u201d Adriana told Curtis what she\u2019d seen that day.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis nodded. \u201cI\u2019ll look into it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd Denton\u2026\u201d Adriana asked softly, a bit troubled. \u201cThere are too many people around him trying to stir things up. Can he really be trusted? I was pretty cold to him today to test Savannah\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis smiled and squeezed Adriana\u2019s hand. \u201cThere\u2019s no need to dwell on that. Denton isn\u2019t stupid. He\u2019s extremely perceptive. There\u2019s no way he wouldn\u2019t sense someone trying to sow discord. You can\u2019t wake someone who\u2019s pretending to be asleep, and you can\u2019t hold on to someone whose heart is already gone.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis wasn\u2019t too hung up on whether Denton would turn bad one day.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That kid lacked love. He craved it too much.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There was a scale in his heart. One thought could turn him into a demon, another into a saint.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But in the end, the choice was his.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCurtis\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
At the door, Denton cautiously poked his head in, glanced around, pulled his baseball cap lower, and slipped inside. He\u2019d even brought Adriana a box of freshly cut watermelon.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAdriana, this is for you,\u201d Denton said with an innocent smile. It looked like he\u2019d shaken the spies and circled back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
