Khloe knew Winnie too well-too well to not anticipate that Winnie would feel guilty from being touched.

“Once you reclaim your mother’s inheritance, the pharmaceutical patents must be tied to Morrison Group. And now that you’ve passed your assessment, you’ll need to work even harder for me. I want you and your team to develop better medicines, cut costs, improve efficiency, and help me reach Morrison Group’s next goal as soon as possible.”

Khloe’s words were firm, yet when she lifted her hand to smooth Winnie’s hair, her gaze was full of the indulgent affection of an older sister.

Winnie froze for a moment, then nodded firmly. “Since you trust me, I will never let you down.”

With their gratitude expressed, they couldn’t wait to go home.

Oscar had already arranged for someone to tidy up and redecorate the couple’s sweet little nest. Even Michael had no idea- when they stepped inside, surprises awaited at every turn.

Rose petals were scattered across the entrance carpet, forming a path all the way to their bedroom. On the bed lay the original wedding rings Michael had bought for them, along with two additional sets-carefully chosen by Oscar for Winnie. One set was custom-designed jewelry with top-grade purple and green sapphires; the other was classic gold.

“Dad… he really put thought into this…” Winnie said, her previous harsh impression of Oscar softening. Even if he hadn’t given these gifts, she would have been grateful simply that he agreed to let her marry into the family.

“He’s tough to deal with, but our family values reason,” Michael explained. “Now that Dad has accepted you, he’ll treat you well. These gifts are just a courtesy.”

He was right. With time so short and knowing that absence makes the heart grow fonder, Oscar could only use these gestures to make amends for his previous attitude toward Winnie.

Michael turned Winnie toward him. She lifted her face, cupping his jaw, and kissed him.

Michael had been holding back too, and as Winnie’s kiss unsettled him, he tugged open his collar, and together they fell into the red sea of petals.

The soft bed sank under them. Expensive gift boxes scattered across the surface toppled to the floor as their bodies moved and tangled.

Michael whispered and turned off the bedroom lights. Darkness enveloped their bare forms.

Moonlight streamed through the curtains, stretching over the discarded clothing, the shimmering jewelry, and the scattered petals, all intertwining in a delicate chaos.

“Can we… not use it?”

Winnie murmured, “Michael…”

“Didn’t you promise me we’d have a child?”

“…Then you’d better never, in this lifetime, disappoint ine.”

“I promise.”

Meanwhile, in another room, Khloe and Nick were entwined in their own passionate embrace.

Debts were being repaid, with both interest and principal accounted for. But due to Khloe’s condition, they could only sip broth each night, unable to indulge in heavier meals. 1

Still, Nick always found ways to make it satisfying-sometimes, the main course wasn’t necessary to enjoy the flavor.

Afterward, they bathed together, finally going to bed in the early hours.

“By the way,” Khloe said, “Michael insists you need to be properly thanked. He told me to make sure this favor is repaid.”

“Repay a favor?”

Nick paused, thoughtful for a moment. Then his mind raced ahead. “Perfect. Once Lucas’s investment project comes through, Michael can go on a few business trips on my behalf.”
