Many years ago, Victor Gale was the boss of the Bennett Clan. At that time, he favored Eliana Beckett, and both of them were drugged and manipulated. He was only 18 that year, and Eliana was younger. Without reason, this is the Mafia, this is darkness, only endless darkness, you can’t imagine those days...

Because Victor ruined Eliana, she held a grudge, and later secretly gave birth to Eva Nightingale, deceiving everyone.

In the days that followed, for many years they were both caught in a love-hate relationship!

Many years passed, and later the leader of the "Bennett" organization needed to change the surname.

As a Mafia boss, Victor Gale naturally had blood on his hands, no need to say it.

Eva Nightingale walked into the castle, and the maid greeted respectfully, "Young Miss, you’ve finally returned, Madam has been waiting to have dinner with you." It was already ten o’clock in the evening.

"Hmm, hasn’t mom eaten dinner yet?"

"No, Madam has been waiting for Miss."

"..." Eva didn’t say anything else and walked into the opulent living room.

She had just put down her bag when she saw Eliana Beckett walking toward her.

"Eva, what’s going on? Mom had people call for you for so long?" Eliana’s tone was concerned, not as harsh as usual, "By the way, if you want to play, I won’t stop you... But the men you’re involved with..."

Eliana heard that she had been hanging out at the bar these past few days, at least that’s what her subordinates reported, even Jasmine Green said so.

Jasmine Green is Eva’s most trusted subordinate, 22 years old, already an international-level assassin, trained from childhood through brutal methods, cultivated by Bennett personally, and very loyal.

Jasmine has followed Eva for three years, but has been with Eliana since childhood, so Eliana never doubts Jasmine’s words.

The maid who saw Lucas Knight at the villa and found him familiar was Jasmine Green.

She had followed Sebastian Yansford to the Sovereign Empire several times before. She always felt like she had seen Lucas Knight somewhere, because his profile was really eye-catching.

"Mom Eliana, I’m just playing at the bar!" Eva said, heading towards the dining room and sitting down.

"Alright, alright! You can go to the bar, mom approves, but mom hopes you understand, you’re the future matriarch of the clan, you shouldn’t cast your love net everywhere, mom doesn’t want you to be trapped by love."

No matter how capable someone is, being trapped by love is futile, especially living in such an environment, Eliana doesn’t want her heart to be easily captured by a man.

If Eliana knew, she would personally kill that man!!!

Just like she hated Victor Gale back then... causing him harm too many times, but Victor was too strong; over time, Eliana realized that hurting people... wasn’t a joyful thing, especially hurting someone she loved deeply.

Eliana doesn’t want Eva to become like her one day, doesn’t want Eve to suffer like her, so she wants to personally prevent and cultivate her ruthless, heartless traits.

Only by becoming strong, and bristling with thorns, can one avoid getting hurt!

Eliana is very firm, currently, the only person in the world who can change her convictions is Victor Gale.

Because every time she sees him, she immediately turns weak, can’t bear his gaze, even if it’s cold and icy, she can’t handle it, she wins at everything but loses to Victor Gale.

"Mom Eliana, next time don’t wait for me to eat, you..."
