Watching Rebecca furrow her brow, Daniel felt a pang of concern in his chest. "Rebecca, is something troubling

you?" he asked gently.

"No, Daniel, what trouble could | possibly have?" Rebecca replied, putting on a brave face.

The more Rebecca denied it, the more Daniel was convinced that something was weighing on her mind.

"Rebecca, we're best friends. You can tellanything. If there's something | can do to help, you know | will," he

assured her earnestly.

Rebecca shook her head, "Really, it's nothing, Daniel. Thank you for your kindness."

"Are you sure?" Daniel pressed, still uneasy.

"Truly, there's nothing."

Rebecca swiftly changed the subject, "Daniel, do you know what my biggest wish is?"

"What is it?" Daniel asked, curious.

Rebecca smiled warmly, "My greatest hope is that one day, there won't be a single orphan in Luxphinia. Every

child should be born into a loving family!"

At that moment, Daniel felt as though Rebecca was glowing with a radiant light.

In this world, driven by self-interest, how many people could still possess such kindness and purity as Rebecca?

Rebecca sighed, then continued, "Look at these children, Daniel. Aren't they adorable? | can't fathom how their

parents could abandon them. Maybe they had their own hardships, but no matter what, they shouldn't have left

their children."

Rebecca sighed deeply once more, her expression one of tender concern for the children.

"People wear many faces, Rebecca. Not everyone is as kind-hearted as you," Daniel said.

Rebecca blushed slightly, "Daniel, you're givingtoo much credit. | haven't done much. | was born into a

wealthy family and am just doing what | can."

"If everyone thought like you, these orphans wouldn't have such a hard life," Daniel replied. "Anthea is also

wealthy, but I've never seen her donate a penny to an orphanage."

Such is the difference between people, he mused.

Although Anthea was a tech genius and a popular online influencer, she only ever thought of her own enjoyment,

never considering that others might need her help.

Rebecca smiled, but Daniel noticed a subtle sadness in her smile.

"Rebecca, what's really going on?" Daniel asked, deeply worried.

Rebecca sighed, looking up at him. "Daniel, can | hug you? Just for a moment?" she asked, almost shyly. If she

was using Daniel as a stepping stone, she figured she should give him a little reward.

Seeing how smitten Daniel was, she knew he had harbored feelings for her for quite stime.

Daniel was taken aback, not expecting such a request.

Rebecca quickly added, "Don't get the wrong idea, Daniel. | don't mean anything

by it. I'm just really tired and need a moment."

Before he could respond, Rebecca wrapped her arms around him.

Her perfenveloped him, filling his senses.

Daniel stood rigid, his heart racing and his cheeks flushed.

What was happening? He felt as though he might be falling for Rebecca.

But he couldn't let that happen.

Rebecca was Sherman's fiancée.

He couldn't steal another man's love.

No, he couldn't!

Rebecca held onto Daniel, her chin resting on his shoulder, a small, triumphant smile playing on her lips.

Seeing Daniel's reaction, she knew he was falling hard for her.

She was confident in her irresistible charm.

Soon, Rebecca released him, her eyes suddenly welling up. "I'm sorry, Daniel lost my composure. |

As she

walked away, Daniel was left standing there, still lost in the embrace that had just ended. After a few moments,

he snapped back to reality and turned to his assistant. "Howard, check if anything's going on with the Morris

family," he instructed.
