and a low, familiar male voice sounded in her ear. “Cora, come back to me, okay?”
But instead of responding to his supposed affection, Cora struggled forcefully and slapped him in the
face.
“Belated affection means nothing. I don’t need it!”
However, it was evident that this slap wasn’t enough to
awaken someone who pretended to play dumb.
Eason asked stubbornly, “But what can you gain by being with Byron? He can’t even be a part of the
Hansen family’s
management now.”
“Yeah, even though he may have nothing, at least I won’t be alone whenever I encounter difficulties,”
Cora replied.
Even when they were separated, he would still help her out.
That was why Cora put down all her defenses and fell for him
again.
“I admit that I didn’t treat you well enough before, which

made you sad. But Cora, I don’t want to see you hurt again,” Eason said, his heart burning with anger
whenever he thought about Cora being held by Byron in front of everyone at the banquet just now.
“As long as you promise to come back to me, I can let go of any grudges against you. I’ll work hard to
earn money to help rebuild the Lane family,” Eason pleaded.
“You can let go those grudges? I can’t. I can earn money on my own, and I can rebuild the Lane family
without you. Don’t
make me sick!”
With that, she turned around, wanting to go back to Byron’s side as soon as possible.
Eason disgusted her so much that she needed Byron to wash away her nasty feelings.
Seeing Cora leave without mercy, Eason’s sense of bitterness reached its peak.
“You will regret it. Byron not only lost the management rights,
but I heard from several uncles that they fear he will retaliate against the Hansen Group, so they are
uniting to suppress him. Even if he starts a new venture, it will be very difficult.
Accompanying him in this reckless gamble with your youth will only end in a devastating loss!”

In order to get a share of the pie, the Patton family had also joined the plan to suppress Byron’s new
business venture, and
that was how Eason knew about it.
He explicitly told Cora all of this, hoping she would be his woman again.
However, Cora paused and turned around with a smile. “I won’t regret it. I’ve already committed to
accompany him in this reckless gamble. If we win, I’ll stand by his side as we rule
the world. If we lose, I’ll accompany him in rising again!”
Cora smiled like a blooming summer flower, radiantly
beautiful.
But Eason knew that her smile wasn’t for him. It was for the
man she was willing to gamble everything with.
She loved Byron so determinedly and would never admit
defeat no matter what. Such a fire–like relationship once
belonged to Eason, but now it belonged to someone else.
Eason watched as Cora walk away resolutely, overcome with
regret.
Unfortunately, in this world, there is no remedy for regret…
As Cora returned to the banquet venue, she realized that
apart from those so–called friends who ignored Byron, there

were also some acquaintances who liked to challenge his
patience.

For instance, there was Wesley Ashton, a property developer who approached Byron after drinking a
few glasses of wine.
“Byron, why are you here? Shouldn’t you be taking care of your father in the hospital?”
Cora had seen Wesley groveling before Byron several times
during the period when she was close to Byron.
Every time they had dinner, he practically knelt down to pour wine for Byron and spoke to him in a
gentle voice. Even though he could almost be Byron’s father in terms of age, he
still referred to him as “Mr. Hansen”.
Even when Cora occasionally accompanied Byron to those
dinner parties, Wesley didn’t dare to look at her, fearing that
he would offend Byron.
But now?
Wesley called Byron by his first name and even boldly gazed
at Cora’s collar.
“My father has almost recovered,” Byron initially responded with some patience.

However, when he noticed that Wesley’s gaze was about to
stick to Cora’s neckline, he warned, “If you don’t want to end up lying in the hospital, get lost.”
