Jared's expression paused for a moment when he sawbefore he quickly composed himself. He politely said
goodbye to Tracy’s dad and walked over to me.
Tracy's dad, Mason Darwin, gavea meaningful, scrutinizing look before calling out his daughter's nickname.
Tracy, with a hint of disappointment in her eyes, said to Jared, “Jared, I'm going back with my dad now.”
Jared gave her a gentle nod. “Alright, go ahead.”
Tracy didn’t leave right away. She turned towith a smile and said, “Mrs. Holcomb, | hope you don’t
misunderstand.
“Tonight is just a business dinner. Jared and my family are discussing a potential partnership. Don’t worry. With
With that, Tracy acted gently and followed her father out of the restaurant.
Jared turned to me, his expression calm. “What brings you and your friend here?”
Melissa immediately shot back, “Mr. Holcomb, are you saying Victoria can’t show up anywhere you are from now
on?“,
Jared smiled faintly and explained, “That's not what | meant.”
Melissa continued, “Then what do you mean, Mr. Holcomb? Are you saying Victoria was stalking you?”
My chest tightened at her words, but | wasn’t about to waste my breath asking about him and Tracy. I'd just
ignore it completely.
Jared shook his head. “That's not what | meant. Victoria, are you heading back now? I'll ride with you.”
“Sorry, | have to take Melissa home,” | said, pulling Melissa along withas we headed out.
Jared didn’t try to follow us.

Melissa was still fuming. In the elevator, she asked me, “Victoria, why are you so quiet? You need to let it out.
You can’t just let him off the hook like that. You should at least make him put it in writing.”
| replied coolly, “A man’s nature is to keep falling for new women. Even if he wrote a promise, what difference
would it make?”
Melissa burst out laughing at that and nodded. “Exactly. Men can’t get enough of it.”
Melissa kept ranting, “Did you hear that woman's tone? She sounded so sweet and familiar. Anyone who didn’t
know better would think she was his wife.”
That suddenly brought back a memory from my previous life. Tracy once toldthat at work, she called him Mr.
Holcomb, but in private, she only used his name. And in bed, she'd use all sorts of flirty nicknames, even calling
him Baby before.
“Melissa, don’t get upset over them,” | said softly.
“No, any normal person would be upset. Victoria, do you not love him anymore?” Melissa suddenly snapped out
of it, her eyes going wide as she stared at me. “You only stop hurting and stop caring when you don’t love
someone anymore.
“So, is that it? You really don’t love him anymore?”

| gave her a small, wry smile. “Honestly, there are still things | like about him, like his money. But as for the man
himself, | stopped loving him a long tago.”
“Well, that’s actually a good thing,” Melissa said, arching an eyebrow. “But seriously, the guy is loaded. If you
split everything fifty-fifty, you'd be rolling in billions.”
I never dared to dream of becoming scrazy rich lady with billions. Just a tiny slice would be more than
enough to keepcomfortable for the rest of my life.
