It was clear now; since the Ainsworth Group had gone after the Joneses, it meant Curtis had been targeting them all along.
“Yeah,” Curtis said calmly. “Ever since that day.” He didn’t tell Adriana
Joneses for a long time, even before all this.

Natasha still foolishly believed that once Curtis divorced Adriana, she and her family could make Adriana miserable again. She was dreaming of dragging Adriana back into the nightmare she once lived in, thinking Curtis wouldn’t protect her
anymore.
But that would never happen. Curtis would never give the Joneses or Natasha that chance. Just having that thought was enough for them to deserve the consequences.
Adriana’s heart felt warm. She gently held Curtis’s hand.
This man was so good to her.
Curtis never told her everything he was doing, but somehow, everything he handled always turned out perfect.
“What do you want to eat? Take a look at the menu,” Curtis said, guiding her into a private room. Yolanda clearly had no interest in the food. She was already excitedly running around, building her network and meeting people.
Curtis appreciated girls like Yolanda and he was smart enough to know when to give them. privacy.
Adriana looked at the menu and ordered a few of her favorite dishes before handing it to Curtis.
Curtis added a fish and slowly and carefully deboned it for her.
Maybe it was because he’d been raised with refined manners. Watching him hand‘ fish felt strangely calming–almost like a quiet performance. She couldn’t help b

Just as Adriana was enjoying her meal, the door to the room was kicked open “Oh? You’re here too?” Nicole stepped in with Danielle. They had both returned to Haldoria, clearly aiming to go after Denton.
But of course, they wouldn’t miss a chance to step on Curtis while he was rumored to be losing the family inheritance.
Everyone knew Danielle and her father were snakes. They could tell Harold was grooming Denton to take over. And Danielle, after what Curtis had done to her before, was still furious.

The company still hadn’t recovered. She was her to settle the score.
Curtis’s face darkened. He looked toward the water outside the room.

“Sorry, Mr. Lincoln, I tried to stop them…” the waiter said nervously. “This lady said she knows you.”
Nicole strutted in like she owned the place. She sat right across from straight at him. “You know exactly what your grandfather wants, right? Adriana and marry me, you’ll lose the inheritance and be kicked out with nothing”

She smirked, then turned proudly to Adriana. “If you don’t want Harold to throw you out, you’d better divorce her right now and try to win me over. Maybe I’ll be generous and agree to marry you.”
Nicole was so sure that if Curtis didn’t marry her he would fall from his throne and be stepped on by everyone.
Danielle also smiled lightly. “Mr. Lincoln, things are different now. Your family already has a new heir. I think only by working with us can you still win.”
She was warning him to choose wisely.
But Curtis’s face didn’t change at all. He calmly continued deboning the fish for Adriana. He took the crispy pan–seared fish, removed all the bones, and gently placed the perfect piece on Adriana’s plate. “Eat well. Don’t listen to rabid dogs barking.”
Adriana couldn’t help but smile and nod.
In that moment, she suddenly understood something. She finally knew why people with real power always looked at others‘ threats like they were watching clowns perform. Because from Curtis’s point of view, even without the title of Lincoln Group’s CEO, he still had identities that were far more untouchable.
Nicole and Danielle thought that once Curtis left his family, he would be nothing. They couldn’t be more wrong.
Curtis’s worth was never tied to a family name. His value was always in himself.
“Mr. Lincoln,” Natasha said as she walked in with a proud smile, acting like she owned the place. “If you ever lose your title as the CEO of Lincoln Group, you might not even qualify to dine here. At Nera Club, guests are judged by their status.”
She had no idea Curtis was actually the real owner behind Ainsworth Group and the new owner of Nera Club. She thought her family had quietly sold it without anyone finding out.
