Finished
Upon hearing Audrey’s words, both Isabe and Alexander, who were cavesdropping, were taken
aback.

They all knew the reason, and logically speaking, Audrey should have been the one most afraid to
voice it, much less at the Hampton manor. What was Audrey really up to?
Inside. Dakota was taken aback. Initially, she thought Audrey hade to dissuade her on behalf
of the Hampton family, amon scenario in prominent families. Yet, she was confused about
what Audrey was referring to.
“What?” Dakota had actually stopped caring about the reasons orck thereof and was just shocked
by Audrey’s actions,
A glint shed across Audrey’s eyes and she said resignedly, “Actually, it’s because of his ex–
girlfriend. She chose a more suitable marriage partner for the sake of her family’s future,
abandoning the love and rtionship they shared. She wronged him but still loved him. His
heartache was because he loved his ex- girlfriend too deeply and couldn’t ept the end of their
rtionship. Thus, his overreaction and constant suspicion of the motives of any woman who got
close to him, wondering if they were after his That’s why he deceived you for so long..
money.
Dakota froze, the look on her face was more thunderous than before.
She actually has the audacity to say it out loud! Is she out of her mind? Isn’t she afraid others might
overhear and Wait a minute! She and Josiah were in a secret rtionship, so no one knew they
were dating. If any other members of the Hampton family hear this gossip, they won’t associate the
so–called ex–girlfriend with Audrey. It’s outrageous after all. Therefore, Audrey isn’t afraid to use
this truth to hurt Dakota, but how does she know this will affect Dakota?
Alexander furrowed his brows in contemtion, his line of thought simr to Isabelle’s.
Previously, Dakota had merely thought it was some kind of dare some silver–spooned kids came
up with,
Yet, Dakota finally understood the reason she was treated as such was actually due to another
woman.
She couldn’t determine which was more devastating.
Maybe Audrey is just trying to show off subtly? Isabe couldn’t help but check. She’s so calcting
Audrey must be worried that Dakota is a hopeless romantic and will insist on staying with Josiah
even if deceived. Hence, the best way to deal with a hopeless romantic is to hit them where it hurts
the most.
As Isabe expected, she could tell that Dakota was greatly distressed even through the phone
screen.
For Dakota, that was even more insulting than mere deception. It was a mockery of her love.
Tak, tsk, tsk, Josiah is beyond salvation now. Even though Dakota had agreed toe, she had
actually decided to break up. Now that Dakota knows the truth, Josiah has no hope left.
Although Josiah was Alexander’s close friend, all Alexander could do was silently mourn for his
friend.
Dakota might be even more disgusted if she finds out Audrey was Josiah’s ex–girlfriend.
Alexander felt that that was the worst Audrey could do. She wouldn’t be so impulsive as to expose
that secret. After all, she couldn’t ensure whether revealing the truth to Dakota would cause any
commotion.

Her tone was filled with concern as a member of the family. Yet, a hint of sadnessy beneath the
surface, making it seem as if she was directly involved in the situation.

Isabe and Alexander knew the truth, so they naturally felt nothing but
With a sensitive nature, Dakota instantly picked up on her unusual tone, let alone in matters rted
to Josiah.
She looked up at Audrey, confusion etched on her face
Audrey’s eyes reflected sorrow, her hand unconsciously reaching for the ne around her
neck.

The ne was a recent acquisition of Audrey’s. Dakota hadn’t noticed it at first, but Audrey’s
action had. drawn her attention to the ne.
Dakota’s face turned deathly pale when she studied the material and design of the jewelry.
“This ne is… Dakota’s voice was hoarse and filled with disbelief.
Audrey’s expression was flustered as if realizing what she had just done. Then, she deliberately
avoided Dakota’s gaze.
“I–It’s a birthday gift from a family member. Is there a problem? Do you like it, Ms. Meadows? I’m
afraid this is a one–of–a–kind piece. Given the uniqueness of the materials, only one ne can
be made. The leftover material can only make a small bracelet at most. I’m not sure where the
bracelet ended up, otherwise, I’ll offer it to you aspensation for Josiah’s deception.”
Isabe was puzzled at that part of the gossip.
Why did Dakota suddenly bring up the ne? But Audrey’s reaction is odd as if it’s a gift from
Josiah. Huh? Could it really have been from him? But how would Dakota know about it?
Suddenly, Alexander beside her stirred. Isabe’s shoulder was jostled, causing her to look at
Alexander in
confusion.
Alexander’s expression subtly shifted as he looked at Isabe. With his free hand, he captured
Isabe’s wrist, which was adorned with a bracelet. He pointed at the bracelet, then gestured
toward Dakota on the
screen.
Isabe still hadn’t caught on.
Just at that moment, elegant music wafted up from below. The band had begun their sound check.
Leaning in, Alexander moved closer to Isabe, his words barely more than a whisper, “Dakota’s
bracelet.”
At that moment, Isabe’s thought processgged. It wasn’t her fault for spacing out. It was
because Alexander’s breath had brushed her sensitive ear, causing it to warm up. Coupled with
Alexander’s deep and maic voice, it tickled Isabe’s ear, making it tingle. It wasn’t an
exaggeration to say that Isabe, who was slightly fond of voices, almost went weak in the knees.
Ordinarily, Alexander’s voice carried an inherent chill, cool andposed, that made it simply
pleasing to the ear, devoid of any innuendos, but not at that moment.

Holy cr“p! I nearly got pregnant from his voice! How can Alexander produce such a voice? It’s like
he’s purposely seducing me! I never thought he’d have the potential to be an incubus!
At that moment, Alexander, who just wanted to provide his wife with crucial information to make
things easier for her, had ears that were redder than Isabe’s
Feeling a mix of annoyance and unease, he cast a nce at Isabe. In the end, all he could do
was remain
silent.
Meanwhile, the Quirks downstairs were thoroughly enjoying the gossip, even though Isabelle’s
iplete thoughts made piecing together the truth quite a challenge. However, the unexpected
segment caught thempletely off guard. They truly weren’t prepared for the unsolicited
information.
They were speechless, not expecting Alexander to have that side to him.
Is this the extent he’ll go to pursue his wife? Squeezing out every potential he has? So, what does
an incubus sound like?
The family nearly lost track of keeping up with the gossip.
Fortunately, Isabe was also a professional gossiper. Even though she was momentarily
distracted by Alexander’s beauty, she quickly snapped back to reality
What did Alexander just say? Dakota’s bracelet was the one from the time when we helped her pick
up her things? Wait a minute! Audrey mentioned the bracelet too. Why would she bring that up out
of nowhere? Something isn’t right. Is it what I’m thinkin
