Torrie approached their group with calculated steps, her arms crossed in a display of casual confidence.
Drawing near enough to speak, she fixed Carrie with a knowing smirk, her eyes drifting meaningfully toward the
ambulance’s departure point.
“Was that the Mr. Norris from Norris Group of Orkset?” Her voice carried a deliberate softness.
“I heard my cousin has been spending quite a bit of twith him lately...”
She paused for tic effect, pressing her hand to her lips in feigned surprise.
“The way Mr. Norris rushed to stop your car with such desperation—perhaps he wanted to ensure my victory?”
Dariel lingered behind her, adding fuel to the fire.
“Such a display of devotion, risking his own safety to impress his girlfriend's family. Who knew Mr. Norris

“Kristopher Norris must be out of his mind!”
To the Morrisons, losing a few million wasn’t a big deal—it was a mere drop in the ocean. What stung was the
humiliation. Victory had been within reach, and yet Kristopher had snatched it away in tic fashion.
Arion couldn’t make sense of it. Why would Kristopher go to such extremes? Still, Torrie’s insinuations didn’t faze
him. As a man, he had seen Kristopher’s reaction to Aliza firsthand.
The last ttheir paths crossed, Kristopher’s expression held nothing but disdain for her—not even a hint of
affection.
Reece extracted a bank card from his wallet, holding it between his fingers with casual disdain as he extended it
to Dariel.
“No password needed. Five million inside. Consider the excess a gratuity.” His tone dripped with barely

“Mr. Morrison, your generosity knows no bounds.”
