“Look! That time I was in the hospital, it was Micah who secretly came to beat me up! Open your eyes and see clearly. He’s not blind! His eyes are perfectly fine!”

The phone screen was shoved in front of her face. The image quality was very blurry, but Oriana would never mistake Micah’s form and features.

She watched, wide–eyed, as the man she knew to be gentle and steady in her sight appeared in the video, dark and venomous, icy and shadowed.

Faced with Grant’s taunts, Micah offered no reply. Instead, he simply closed the distance toward Grant. Just before Grant could launch an attack, Micah, with absolute, overpowering force, suppressed Grant’s move, rendering him defenseless.

With just one hand, effortlessly, like an iron vise, he clamped down on Grant’s neck. Oriana watched Grant’s furious face gradually turn purple from lack of breath.

From start to finish, Micah’s gaze was calm, looking at Grant losing his strength to struggle as one would an insect.

Just as Grant was about to lose consciousness, Micah finally released his grip. He smoothly removed the bracelet from Grant’s wrist, meticulously wiping each bead clean, inside and

out.

Finally, he placed it back on his own wrist.

And when Grant threatened to call the police, Micah, with a few light words, rendered him powerless. The dark, cold profile as he ordered Kieran to silence everyone on the scene was also an unfamiliar side of him Oriana had never seen.

Grant accused him of coming to find an excuse to kick him out of the summit, but Micah offered no explanation, simply left.

Whether it was disdain to explain, or… tacit admission.

The surveillance video ended, reflecting Oriana’s hollow gaze in the dark screen.

This was… the incident from before, when the couple’s bracelet was left at Grant’s place.

Micah had told her he had Kieran take him to retrieve it.

She had only worried if he was hurt. She had never imagined… such a scene…

He was not the man she saw. He was not as vulnerable as she had imagined.

“Oriana, do you see? This is the real Micah! The gentleman who acts clumsy, pitiful, and gentle in front of you–it’s all a mask!”

Seeing her stunned reaction, a triumphant smile finally appeared on Grant’s face.

“Oriana, you resent me for deceiving you, don’t you? But isn’t he the same? Flying the flag of doing what’s best for you, he’s been treating you like a fool all along! Lying about being blind to smoothly break down your defenses. Behind your back, he’s surely deceived you about even more—your feelings, even your body!” Grant emphasized the last few words heavily.

“And today, he lied to you again, didn’t he?

“All this is the truth I struggled to uncover. Back then, I couldn’t find solid evidence, couldn’t make you see the truth sooner. But now, it’s good. The sky… is finally clear!”

He had said so much, but Oriana hadn’t reacted. Grant looked at her with pitying eyes, even wanting to pull her forcefully into his embrace.

“Oriana, I know you’re heartbroken. You want to cry, right? Be good, cry in my arms…”

Just as Grant was about to pull Oriana into his embrace, Lily, returning with the food, saw the scene and was scared out of her wits.

“Oriana? Grant, what are you doing?! Let go of Oriana!”

Lily rushed over, but before she could intervene.

Smack! A crisp sound echoed. Everyone present looked over, clearly seeing the distinct handprint materializing on Grant Holloway’s face.

Lily skidded to a halt, stunned.

Even Grant was frozen in place for a long moment.

Finally, he came back to himself, staring in disbelief at Oriana, who had just slapped him.
