Dawn let out a small sigh.

She leaned back a little, trying to find afortable position <i>to </i>lie in.
“Jonathan, I’m so tired.”
No answer.

The man looked up. His cold eyes were unreadable. When he didn’t hear her say anything else for a while, he leaned over and pulled the seatbelt over, buckling it for her.
He shut the car door.
Then he walked around the front of the car and got into the driver’s seat.
Dawn drifted into a hazy sleep. Somewhere between dreaming and waking, she saw her mom again.
Even though so many years had passed, her mom’s face was still clear in her mind.
Vera was stunning. Her face and body were almost perfect. She loved looking pretty, but she wasn’t into dressing up. Most of the time, she just wore a loose T–shirt and jeans.
When Dawn was about four or five, Vera would take her biking and ying ball.
Unlike other little girls who loved Barbie dolls, her dad would alwaysugh and say that her mom raised her like a wild kid.
One weekend, when her dad was working overtime, her mom took her to a nearby mountain.
They were both out of breath from the climb.
Vera had her rest at a small pavilion and handed her some water.
“I need to talk to a friend for a few minutes. Be good and wait here, okay?”
Dawn nced into the distance and saw a tall figure.
It was an older man.
He was wearing a suit. She couldn’t see his face clearly from the back, but she could tell he had a powerful vibe, like someone important.

She sat there drinking her water, watching Vera walk over to him. They said a few words, and then they started arguing. The next second, the man suddenly grabbed Vera’s neck.
Dawn was trembling all over, too terrified to make a sound.
Luckily, Vera broke free.
It was the first time Dawn ever saw that look on Vera’s face–angry, hateful, and hopeless.
The man finally left.
Vera took a moment topose herself beforeing back to her.
She smiled and hugged her. “Did I scare you, Dawn?
“Don’t be scared. I was just ying a game with that man. Remember the y we watchedst time? Just like that, it wasn’t real.”
Dawn blinked. Tears slid down her cheeks like beads.
“You’re not mad, Mom?”
Back then, she was too young to understand. So many things in this world are spoken as white lies. Love doesn’t exist without a trace of deception.
Vera said, “Of course not,” and quickly distracted her with something else.
The dream came out of nowhere. Dawn’s eyes opened to find herself being carried in a man’s arms, jostled with each step. She felt like she could fall at any moment.
“Put me
down.”
As soon as she struggled, he set her down.
She wasn’tpletely sober yet; her head still spun, but at least she wasn’t as drowsy. She could manage to walk on her own.
Jonathan looked at her with no expression. “Awake?”
“Yeah.”
Unsure if she’d done anything embarrassing while drunk, she said awkwardly, “Thanks for picking me up. I can get upstairs by myself. No need to trouble you.”
Distracted, she walked inside, her mind still caught in the dream.

Who was that man?
Why did he hurt Vera?
In Dawn’s memory, she had never seen Vera hold a grudge against anyone.

She walked to the stairs and held the railing, going up step by step. She stopped and took a deep breath. A sharp pain pierced through her mind.
She had barely slept all night and still had no answers.
Before 7 a.m., Dawn went downstairs and asked the housekeeper to make her a cup of coffee.
The strong, bitter taste woke her up a little and cased the fog in her head.
The housekeeper said that after Dawn went upstairsst night, Jonathan had gone out again and didn’t sleep at the vi.
Dawn indifferently said, “Oh.” She hoped he never came back.
Just then, Victor walked into the dining room and said politely, “Ms. Porter, Mr. Brown is here.”
In the living room, Dawn had the housekeeper bring coffee and sat facing Daniel.
She hadn’t slept all night and looked tired, but she was still strikingly beautiful.
“You’re getting bolder. You daree directly here–seems you’re quite confident.”
Daniel picked up his coffee calmly, took a sip, and smiled. “Well, Mr. Curran and I have met before. Isn’t it normal to visit him?”
It was just that Jonathan happened to be out.
“Fair enough.”
Dawn nced at Victor standing behind her, wondering what excuse he’d used to send the housekeeper away <i>too</i>.
“Go ahead, Mr. Brown. Say what you
want.”
“Have you thought about myst offer?” Daniel spun the cup in his hand and asked casually.
“I heard Mr. Curran is also making arrangements for you to go abroad. But you should know. If you follow his n, even going abroad won’t free you from his control.
