Harold’s voice carried a note of concern. “You alright? She’s just a woman–you don’t need to overthink it.”

He paused, hesitating. “Look, if she really doesn’t want to be with you anymore, that’s fine. I can find

someone else for you.”

“No need. Thanks, Dad.”

With that, Joseph ended the call.

He stared at the photo on his phone, pinching the screen to zoom in again and again.

There was no doubt about it–the Judy who used to look at him with all her attention could now wear that

same obedient, demure expression for someone else.

A sudden wave of irony hit him.

If that was the case, what did all her past promises mean?

Hadn’t she sworn she would love him for the rest of her life?

And because of her one request, he had fought tooth and nail against Walton Corporation.

But now? This woman had so ruthlessly abandoned the studio and flown overseas without a second

thought?

“Heh… well done. Really, well done.”

Joseph couldn’t help clapping his hands in mock applause.

So, what did all his efforts mean now?

Had all the good he’d done for her been for nothing?

He slowly rose to his feet, walking to the floor–to–ceiling window and staring out at the bustling traffic

below

In that moment, he found clarity–he knew exactly what his next step would be.

“Alright. If you choose to be heartless, then don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

A slow smile spread across Joseph’s face, the corners of his lips curling upward.

Far away overseas, Judy stood amid the lively bustle of the banquet, yet she felt an emptiness in her heart, especially with the unsettling sensation of being watched.

The feeling made her shiver involuntarily.

She rubbed her arms, unable to shake the unease in her chest.

Kenneth, having seen off the other distinguished guests, noticed something was off about Judy’s

expression.

She looked as if she had something heavy on her mind.

He placed a hand on her shoulder and asked softly, “Darling, what’s wrong?

“Your face looks a little pale–are you feeling unwell?”

Judy felt a trace of warmth at his concern.

She truly hadn’t chosen the wrong man this time.

But even so, she couldn’t place all her hopes on one man.

In the end, men were only stepping stones.
