Captivated by the Ruler of the Underworld

Robbie leaned against the car, shaking his head. "How would I know? I'm telling you, don't pry into their business too much. If you get in trouble later, don't say I didn't warn you." The bodyguards exchanged glances, getting the gist of the situation. Lela was pinned under Sylvester, feeling things were spiraling out of control. She quickly raised her hand to stop him, her eyes pleading. "Sylvester, not here."

Sylvester paused, fighting his desire. Damn it! He almost lost control out here. He got up, pulled Lela from the passenger seat, and adjusted her clothes, which were almost completely off.

He re-fastened her seatbelt and hit the gas. The sports car cruised towards the entrance of Dragon Manor, heading straight to the swankiest mall in Greafury City. Robbie and the bodyguards saw this and quickly but discreetly followed, keeping a watchful eye.

After the Harrison family scandal, The Harrison Group went bankrupt. Charles, the CEO of Starlit Group, following Sophia's orders, bought The Harrison Group from the Greafury City government.

The Harrison Group was renamed Scott Group, becoming a standalone fabric supplier and a subsidiary of Starlit Group. The Harrison family villa was sealed by the police and was set to be auctioned soon.

Despite the upheaval, Holy Light Elite Academy decided to keep Susanne due to her good grades and gentle nature. They even provided her with financial aid until the SATs, covering her fees and offering free accommodation and living expenses.

Zoe, always taking good care of herself, looked like she was in her early thirties despite being in her forties. Coincidentally, a businessman in Greafury City, Gregory Morris, fifty-six years old and widowed, needed a companion. Given Zoe's situation, no other wealthy families would consider her. But if Zoe didn't find another way, she and Susanne would be out on the streets.

Zoe urgently needed to find a man to rely on. Gregory already had a good impression of her, and both were willing to live together. So Zoe soon married Gregory.

The entire circle of wealthy wives in Greafury City secretly laughed at Zoe, but Zoe had no choice but to endure it. She knew that dignity was worthless compared to survival. Besides, after marrying Gregory, he paid off all her debts. Susanne was in a bad mood. Considering her mental state, the academy granted her leave, allowing Zoe to take her out to relax.

Gregory wasn't well-educated and came from an ordinary background. He made his fortune through his own efforts. Although he couldn't compare to the wealthy families of Greafury City, he had enough money to support Zoe and Susanne comfortably.

However, Susanne looked down on Gregory. She was always proud and couldn't understand why Zoe chose such a lowly man. So, Susanne remained silent in the car.

Gregory had no children and quite liked Susanne, treating her as his own daughter. Seeing her unhappy through the rearview mirror, he said, "Susanne looks really down. How about we go shopping? They say it can lift your spirits." Susanne, sitting in the back seat, sneered, "I want to go to the most luxurious mall in Greafury City. Are you up for it?"

Gregory chuckled. "You're my daughter now. Of course, I'm up for it."

Susanne clenched her fists, not speaking, feeling extremely aggrieved.
