Sebastian’s hand slid along Noelle’s waist, lingering there with open hunger, testing her reaction. His voice was so hoarse it barely sounded like his own. “Noey…”

“Today … it’s my safe period.” Noelle pressed her face into his chest, her voice just as rough. “You don’t have to use a condom…”

The heat in his eyes flared instantly.

At the same time.

Menzie Estate.

“Ethan! You can still sit here drinking coffee?”

Royce and Olivia were on the verge of panic. Seeing how unbothered he looked only made them angrier.

Ethan was dressed in loose, comfortable loungewear. He casually lifted the coffee filter from the pot with a pair of small tongs, eyes still lowered. His voice stayed even. “Uncle Royce, Aunt Olivia, relax a bit. Coffee clears the mind.”

“Clears the mind?” Royce stormed over to the coffee table, his voice jumping with emotion. “Have you seen the news out there? It’s everywhere! That Noelle–she’s the Guzmans‘ real daughter who disappeared 20 years ago. Mr. Angus admitted it himself. And Alliance 749 personally showed up to back her!”

Olivia rushed to add, fear plain on her face. “And Sebastian has been with her this whole time! Now he’s got the Guzmans behind him, plus Alliance 749. After this, where do you even fit in at the Menzies? What’s going to happen to the Hernandezes?”

Ethan’s hand paused for a heartbeat, so slight that it was almost invisible, then moved again.

He poured the coffee into a cup. Steam curled upward, carrying a rich aroma.

“You’re worrying too much.” He lifted the cup and blew on it lightly. “I have my own plan.”

“What plan?” Royce snapped, glaring at him in frustration. “With the few shares and connections you have, how are you supposed to compete with Sebastian now? He’s backed by the Guzmans and Alliance 749! He’s already gaining ground. If you wait until he’s fully settled in Kingstowne, we’re done for!”

Olivia’s eyes flickered. She suddenly leaned closer, lowering her voice, urgency edged with something darker. “Ethan, if you ask me… when it’s time to act, you act. The Guzmans just took her back, and Sebastian’s footing in Kingstowne isn’t solid yet if something were to happen to your grandpa right now, then Menzies would be yours-”

Bang!

Ethan set the coffee cup down hard on the table.

He slowly lifted his head. The calm on his face vanished, replaced by a biting chill. His gaze was sharp, cutting straight into Olivia. “Aunt Olivia, watch your mouth.”

His voice stayed low, but the warning in it was unmistakable. “I don’t wanna hear that again, Grandpa is healthy and will live a long life. Anyone who even entertains that thought…”

He paused, then said each word clearly. “Is picking a fight with me.”

The next day.

Noelle went to Alliance 749 first to check on Serena.

After her treatment, Serena was already recovering well.

When Noelle arrived, Serena was lying in bed, slowly eating congee.

“Noelle, you’re finally here…” Serena waved her over. “Seriously, if not for you, I’d be dead.”

Noelle laughed. “You sound pretty lively for someone who almost died.”

“Yeah, but it still hurts like hell.” Serena grit her teeth. “This time I really screwed up. Someone played dirty, and I almost didn’t make it back.

“Once I’m healed, I’m going after them.”

Serena had been on countless missions. This was the first time she’d ever taken a real hit.

The other side had set up an ambush with a whole group. Serena had been rushing back for Noelle’s homecoming party, got careless, and walked straight into it.

“You won’t need to.” Noelle smiled. “Sebastian already handled it.”

“Huh? What do you mean?”

“IBI paid them a visit.”

Serena froze for a second, then burst out laughing. “Ha! Nice! Sebastian nailed it! At least he knows how to protect your bestie. I’ll give him that.”

“By the way,” Serena said, “yesterday went smoothly, right? How do you feel about being officially recognized? How are the Guzmans treating you?” If the Guzmans treated Noelle badly, she wouldn’t stand for it.

“It’s fine.” Noelle shrugged.
