"As long as he's still openly protecting you, Tristan Sterling won't dare to do anything to you regardless of how ruthless he is."
Rhiannon Campbell's heart sank abruptly, as if she had stepped into thin air and plummeted into an abyss.
How does he know Marcus Sterling?
How does he know she's trying to win over that uncle who holds influence in the Sterling Family?
Could it be...
From the beginning, he's been watching her?
Just waiting for her to fall into his trap?
A chill surged from her toes to the top of her head, her back instantly drenched in cold sweat, as if an invisible hand was strangling her throat, making it difficult to breathe.
This man isn't human at all, but a venomous snake lurking in the shadows, silently wrapping around you, tightening bit by bit until you can't move, your blood solidifies, all hope extinguished—only then does he relent.
