Sandria unlocked the door with her fingerprint and walked into the apartment.Â
As soon as she entered, she smelled the aroma of food. Turning her head, she saw a man in a simple white shirt and black trousers standing by the door across from hers. “I ordered some food. Want to eat together?”Â
Sandria curled her lips into a smile. She really hadn’t eaten anything today, and her stomach had long been rumbling with hunger.Â
Her delicate face lifted as she softly replied, then followed Fulbert into the apartment.Â
But she had barely taken a few bites when a message popped up on her phone.Â
“Sandy, stop it. I know you’re still angry…”Â
Looking at those nauseating words, Sandria could already imagine Florentino’s self–righteous gentleness. Suddenly, she laughed.Â
Fulbert raised an eyebrow, a little puzzled.Â
“What’s wrong?”Â
After laughing enough, Sandria lifted her bright eyes and looked at Fulbert.Â
“Help me out with something.”Â
Before Fulbert could react, the next second, Sandria reached out, hooked her arm around his neck, and pulled him down toward her!Â
Their faces were suddenly just inches apart.Â
He was so close he could see the shine on her rosy lips and smell the intoxicating scent of roses on her.Â
Fulbert’s breath caught for a moment.Â
“Click!”Â
The sound of a phone camera shutter echoed.Â
Sandria let go of him and quickly tapped a few times on her phone.Â
She sent that ambiguously angled, incredibly intimate photo directly to Florentino.Â
After doing all this, she tossed her phone onto the table.Â

“Alright, let’s keep eating.”Â
She winked at Fulbert, her smile both sly and captivating.Â
“Don’t let disgusting people ruin our mood.”Â
Watching Sandria send the photo and then decisively toss her phone aside, Fulbert’s deep eyes filled with a look of admiration.Â
“So decisive?”Â
“There’s no need to waste time on trash.” Sandria picked up her wine glass again and poured herself half a glass of red wine.Â
Her alluring eyes and brows sparkled under the light.Â
“Come on, cheers.”Â
The Burnham Group, President’s Office.Â
Florentino stared at his phone screen.Â
“Ding dong,” the phone screen lit up.Â
It was a reply from Sandria!Â
The tense lines on Florentino’s face instantly relaxed. See, she still cared.Â
He had already given her enough of an out today… But the next second, as Florentino opened the message, his face turned extremely ugly.Â
There were no words, only a photo.Â
In a luxurious penthouse, Sandria was smiling radiantly and boldly, seductively sharing an intimate kiss with a man.Â
And that man… was Fulbert!Â
Florentino’s pupils shrank to pinpoints.Â
A surge of uncontrollable rage exploded within him, making his blood boil.Â
Sandria actually dared to be with Fulbert!Â
Was she using this to get back at him? To provoke him?Â
But he had already apologized.Â
Without thinking, Florentino grabbed his phone and dialed Sandria’s number directly.Â
However, what came through the phone was a cold, mechanical female voice.Â

In the penthouse.Â
Fulbert’s phone rang in his pocket.Â
He took out his phone, glanced at the caller ID, raised an eyebrow, and turned the lit–up screen toward Sandria.Â
It was a call from Florentino. Sandria raised her eyebrows and signaled for him to answer.Â
She wanted to see what kind of nonsense he could possibly say.Â
Seeing her so obviously eager for drama, Fulbert’s eyes softened with a hint of indulgence as he pressed the speaker button.Â
The next second, Florentino’s barely suppressed, furious roar exploded from the speaker.Â
“Bert, is she with you!”Â
Leaning against the bar, Fulbert swirled his wine glass unhurriedly, his tone utterly calm.Â
“Something you need?”Â
Those two casual words completely ignited Florentino’s fury!Â
“She’s mine! What do you mean by touching her? After all these years of brotherhood, is this how you treat me?!”Â
