That face wasn\u2019t the one she showed Adriana.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s living in the Lincoln Group\u2019s penthouse suite, and that place costs about one point three million. And you\u2019re telling me he needs pity?\u201d Curtis let out a quiet laugh. \u201cSavannah, I get that Grandpa trained you to support him, but you\u2019re coddling him way too much.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah\u2019s face went pale. That penthouse wasn\u2019t just expensive. Even if you had the money, you might not get in. The place had airtight security. If she wanted to mess with Denton, like installing a hidden camera or trying to catch dirt on him, it wouldn\u2019t work.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That hotel had cleaners every single day. No one got through unless Denton said so. Even if she smuggled a pinhole camera in, it\u2019d be gone the moment security swept the place. Those security checks happened nonstop. It was a locked\u2013down fortress.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah gave it a second, then smiled. \u201cCurtis, he can\u2019t live in a hotel forever. Look at the trash people are saying online. They think you\u2019re out to crush your own brother. You won\u2019t even give him a single place to live. It\u2019s killing your reputation, and it could wreck your company before it gets off the ground.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDoesn\u2019t bother me. People talking doesn\u2019t affect me much,\u201d Curtis said without emotion. He already knew what Savannah was aiming for.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Harold must\u2019ve been out of his mind thinking this girl was some prodigy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
What a joke. She wasn\u2019t smart. She was just plain nasty.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCurtis, you really don\u2019t care about your name? What about Adriana? The school\u2019s talking. They say she\u2019s just in it for the money. They say marrying you cursed your life. That she\u2019s hanging around for your inheritance. That she\u2019s the one driving you to destroy your own brother,\u201d Savannah pushed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat right?\u201d Curtis looked straight at her. \u201cAnd you, as someone the Lincolns picked and trained themselves, heard all this garbage and didn\u2019t shut it down the second it started? Then why the hell did they even bother investing in you?\u201d His voice was low. The anger was sharp\u00a0<\/p>\n
and clear.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah\u2019s chest seized. She didn\u2019t expect him to be this cold.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCurtis, I shut it down the moment I heard it, but it spread too fast. There were just too many people-\u201d Savannah tried to explain.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLet me put it clearly. You\u2019re a dog the family raised. If you can\u2019t stop a rumor from spreading, that just means you\u2019re worthless. And a worthless dog disappoints its owner.\u201d Curtis didn\u2019t even blink. \u201cI\u2019ll have someone track the source of this garbage. When I do, you\u2019d\u00a0<\/p>\n

better handle it. The family doesn\u2019t keep useless logs.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then he got into the car and drove away.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Savannah stood frozen. Her face looked like she\u2019d seen a ghost. Her eyes shimmered with hate.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She clenched both fists tight, then spun and kicked the trash can beside her. The loud metallic clatter broke the silence.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat crown won\u2019t stay on your head forever, Curtis.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She bit down hard and walked away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At school.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana and Yolanda were practicing their Pastalian. Denton bounced over, eager to join the conversation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah marched in with a face like a storm cloud. She gave a cold huff, threw Adriana a cutting glare, then grabbed Denton\u2019s arm and started pulling him away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton didn\u2019t want to go. He shot a helpless look at Yolanda and Adriana, begging with his eyes. Neither one of them moved.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the end, he had no choice but to follow.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhere are we even going?\u201d Denton asked, his voice confused.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m buying you a villa in Haldoria. With my money,\u201d Savannah snapped. \u201cCurtis and Adriana are out of control.\u201d Her tone was sharp. She had already decided. She\u2019d drain every last cent if she had to. Denton was getting out of that hotel.\u00a0<\/p>\n
You don\u2019t win without a gamble.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Getting him out was her first step.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Eventually, Denton and everything tied to the Lincoln Group would be under her thumb. This wasn\u2019t a loss. This was an investment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton stared at her. She wanted him out of that place so badly? Unbelievable. She really was poison.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMs. Feron, I really don\u2019t mind living at the hotel. The rooms are spotless, they clean every day, and it\u2019s convenient for me. Plus, the hotel\u2019s part of the Lincoln Group, so I don\u2019t feel bad\u00a0<\/p>\n

staying there. That penthouse suite was meant for the person running the company anyway,\u201d Denton said, turning her down.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re a future CEO. You\u2019re supposed to inherit the Lincoln Group. And you don\u2019t even own a decent place in Haldoria? Do you have any idea what people are going to say? This crowd worships status. If you look weak, they\u2019ll crush you without thinking. You want to survive in this circle? You need to look the part. We\u2019re buying a villa,\u201d Savannah said as she grabbed his arm and started pulling.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMs. Feron, you\u2019re being impulsive. Buying a house isn\u2019t the same as picking up breakfast from a food cart. We need to slow down and actually talk this through,\u201d Denton said quickly, pulling his arm back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Savannah eased up, not wanting to raise his guard. \u201cAlright. After school, let\u2019s hit some sales offices. We\u2019ll take a look. If something catches your eye, then we can talk. Don\u2019t worry about the money. You\u2019ve got real potential. And Harold asked me to watch over you. I know you won\u2019t forget that.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
