“Hehe.” Keira chuckled awkwardly. Her eyes filled with guilt as she looked at Victor. “I didn’t know how wonderful you were before. I mistook a diamond for trash! 

Her slender fingers swiftly danced across the screen as she spoke, erasing the word “devil from her contact. Instead, she changed it to ‘my dearest Victor‘ before presenting it to him like a precious gift. 

Victor sighed and picked her up in his arms. 

“Torry, are you still angry?” Keira pouted as she saw Victor’s stern expression. She felt like she kept being punished for one thing after another. Recalling last night’s intense lovemaking, her legs still hurt when she walked. She grabbed Victor’s sweater and pleaded, “I’ve changed the name. I really have. Please don’t be angry.” 

Victor remained stern and silent. He carried her into the room and covered her with a blanket. Not long after, Keira saw Otto, who looked disheveled, entering the room. 

“Thank you all for calling me before the sky gets dark” Otto wanted to roll his eyes sarcastically but gave up when he saw Victor’s murderous gaze. 

He approached Keira obediently and asked what was bothering her. 

Keira looked at Victor in confusion. Uh, so how should I explain? Should I tell him I feel sore because Torry was too intense last night? 

“She’s been feeling dizzy all day today, Victor answered for her. “Her face is pale, and her lips are dry.” 

Did Terry call Onto all because I feel dizzy from getting up too quickly? 

Otto was a chief physician and one of the youngest in the country. He usually would not accept consultations. Is it okay for Victor to bother Orto about a slight headache and fever! 

Keira raised her hand to cover her eyes in embarrassment. Furthermore, she knew the real cause of her dizziness. It was because Victor went overboard last night. 

“Um, I was just squatting and stood up too quickly. I don’t think it’s a big issue!” Keira weakly raised her hand. 

“Run the tests““Victor ordered Otto. 

Otto called a servant to prepare the medical room, which was fully equipped with equipment for Keira’s examination. 

The test result showed she had fatigue and mild anemia. 

Otto was amused by the result and teased Victor. “Control your sexual activities. Otherwise, your lady won’t be able to handle 

it 

Keira covered her face in embarrassment and rolled off the bed, saying, “I told you I’m fine, sigh.” 

After Otto left, Keira looked at Victor nervously. Victor initially had a stern expression, but his body heated up intensely as he noticed Keira staring at him. 

“You should get some rest. I have work to do,” Victor said. 

“I won’t disturb you. I’ll stay here quietly.” Keira folded her hands before her and sat across from him obediently. 

Victor cannot find any reason to make her leave. Thus, he turned on an entertainment program for her and began to read the documents. 

Keira was secretly delighted, knowing he tacitly agreed to her company. 

After being reminded not to disturb him several times. Keira could only half–heartedly watch TV. 

The TV showed entertainment news featuring Keziah in a dress adorned with flowers, answering reporters questions.

A reporter asked, “Recently, it was revealed that your father is Richard Sunter, the richest man in Omega City. Do you have anything to say about this?” 

“You and Keira had debuted as sisters back then. What’s your actual relationship with her?” 

“Rumors say Keira suddenly left the Skylly because she became someone’s mistress. What do you think of such rumors?” 

Keira adjusted her heavily laced dress, tucked stray strands behind her ears, and put on her sweetest smile before answering, “Kay and I are as close as sisters. We concealed our family background when we started because we didn’t want to rely on our family’s connections to take shortcuts. We wanted to prove ourselves one step at a time.”

As a famous rising star, Keziah’s appearance ignited the interest of the reporters present. Many pointed their microphones to her, hoping to get something newsworthy. After answering three questions, Keziah left under the protection of her bodyguards and managers. 

Keira sat on the sofa, watching Kezial’s elegant and proud demeanor. Her eyes could not conceal the glimmering ambition as she turned away. Keira could not help but sigh inwardly. My sister has become even more skilled in charming others with her words 

sorry for 

Keziah was only a timid ten–year–old when Keira’s stepmother first brought her to the Sunter family. Everyone felt s her. To give her a sense of belonging to this family. Keira and her father changed her name to Keziah Sunter. 

Nowadays, by borrowing the Sunter surname, she quietly misled others and tacitly accepted their speculations that she was Richard’s only daughter. 

Although Keziah spoke like she was defending Keira, her words implied that the rumors of Keira being a kept woman were 

Even though she was announcing that she had become a solo artist, she misled her fans into believing she was also trying to achieve success on behalf of her former group with Keira. Keziah wanted to not only ride on the popularity of their group but also drain all Keira had and trample her reputation in the mud, inciting the public to curse her. It was a clever plan. 

Keira’s demeanor turned cold and intimidating, catching Victor’s attention and prompting him to observe her thoughtfully. Victor was puzzled by Keira’s changed attitude toward her step–sister and Joseph. Before, he had tried to explain to Keira that Keziah and Joseph were scheming against her. However, Keira misunderstood his intentions and thought he was deliberately trying to break their sisterly bond. 

What had caused Kay’s attitude towards those two people to change so drastically! 

Keira smiled playfully as she turned to Victor and found solace in his embrace. She had long been aware of him discreetly observing her from the side. 

“Torry, I have a request. Can you help me with it?” Her eyes twinkled like stars as she looked at Victor expectantly, She nuzzled her nose affectionately against his Adam’s apple, hoping to please him. 

Victor set aside his pen and pulled her onto his lap, patiently waiting for her to speak 

Keira hesitated before saying. “Um… I want to pursue a career outside.” 

She wants to go out and work? 

Victor’s expression darkened instantly. In the past, Victor had supported her professional aspirations to win her affection. 

However, the previous Keira despised him, reaching a point where she opposed everything he suggested. To please her. Victor provided her with abundant film and television projects. He also allowed her to choose entertainment programs Treely. 

Little did he know that Keira would perceive this as an attempt to control her, leading to a heated argument between them and her unexpected announcement of quitting the entertainment industry. 

Now, Keira suddenly expressed her desire to work. Victor could not help but feel skeptical, thinking she was using this as ant excuse to meet Joseph. Did she pretend to distance herself from Joseph to make him lower his guard so she could go out freely
