"I handed over the resort project to you because | trusted in your dedication and responsibility. But handling

personal matters like getting a marriage license and prenatal visits during work hours? Is this how you treats

your job seriously?"

Mr. Lucas froze, unsure of how to reply. "Mr. Connor..."

"If your are so casual with his work, should we be just as casual with the payments to Moncada International?"

That comment hit Lucas where it hurt.

The resort project was owned by Sartori Corporation. It was also the project that could pull Moncada International

back from the edge. In essence, Connor was his financial lifeline. This was his first major responsibility, and he

couldn't afford to mess it up. Lucas knew the stakes all too well. His confidence wavered instantly.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Connor. It won't happen again," Lucas finally managed to say.

"Since it's your first marriage, | won't hold it against you," Connor said coolly.

Lucas was at a loss for words, "Thank you, Mr. Connor."

"Starting today, | want a daily work report and summary from you, no less than 3,000 words, by 9 PM each

evening."

Lucas was stunned, "Mr. Connor, that's quite a tall order."

Writing 3,000 words would eat up his entire day.

Connor raised an eyebrow, "Too much to handle? If you can't manage this simple task, | question Moncada

International's ability to handle big responsibilities. | might consider another construction firm."

"Mr. Connor, | can do it," Lucas said through gritted teeth, finally agreeing.

Losing this project could bankrupt Moncada International, given how poorly its other projects were performing.

He had to hold onto this opportunity no matter what.

Connor smiled, wrapping his arm around Chloe's shoulder as they descended the steps. "Remember, every

single day."

Once in the car, Chloe could faintly hear Lucas and Linda arguing. As the car sped off, Chloe chuckled,

"You totally did that on purpose net

didn't you? Making him write 3,000 words a day will keep him chained to his computer."

Connor squeezed Chloe's hand, "That was the plan, to keep him from bothering you."

He had overheard Tara's remarks over the phone. Lucas, daring to still think about Chloe, even saying he'd never

marry unless it was her. How dare he! Connor held Chloe's hand tighter, noticing her troubled look. "If Linda

bothers you, | can find a way to make her leave," he offered.

Chloe shook her head, "It's not the tfor her to go, not yet. | need to figure sthings out first."

Chloe wasn't intimidated by Linda. She'd been fooled by her once and wouldn't let it happen again. Chloe was

just puzzled by past mysteries. Why did Rat disappear so suddenly, leaving no trace?

"Tonight, Matt and the others booked a private room at the Blue Sea to celebrate with us. If you don't want to go,

I'll cancel it."

Chloe knew the gathering had been planned for a while. "Let's go. They mean well, and it'll be a nice break."

That evening, Chloe and Connor

headed to the Blue Sea. As they walked in, they were greeted by familiar faces. Matt, Devon, Marc, and a few

others—all Connor's childhood friends. As the door swung open, they lined up, bowing and exclaiming, "Welcome

sister-in-law! Long live the

sister-in-law!"

But Chloe's eyes were drawn to someone else sitting on the couch.
