Caler’s eyes burned as he watched Izzy and Liam enter the high end restaurant together. Even though he had seen a flicker of jealousy in Izzy earlier, she still walked off with Liam–and h outright refused his gift. He snorted. He really wanted to

see how long she would last this time.

The thought infuriated him, but deep down, a twisted part of high found satisfaction in knowing she still cared enough to react. He exhaled sharply, forcing himself to steady his temper, then pulled out his phone and dialed a number.

“Where are you?” he demanded the moment the call connected. If he wanted to strike back, he needed Parnella. She was part of the plan to make Izzy jealous, and Calen was willing to tolerate her company to get what he wanted.

Before Pamella could reply, there was a sharp knock on his car window. He glanced to his right and saw her standing there. With a sigh, he unlocked the passenger door, and she slid inside her heels clicking against the car floor.

“What’s going on?” Pamella asked, brushing her perfectly styled hair over her shoulder. “I was preparing for a night out. You dragged me out here for some dinner? You’re lucky I’m even in Macau right now.”

Calen glanced her over, noting that she looked polished enough for his plan. “I told you. I agree. We can pretend to be in a relationship.” he said flatly. “Let’s make this dinner a celebration

Pamella raised an eyebrow. “You’re joking. You really made me come all the way here for some random dinner celebration? Why can’t we do it back in states?”

Calen snorted, brushing off her irritation. “You’re here, aren’t you? Let’s go. The table’s already booked.”

The restaurant’s second floor exuded understated luxury, with its floor–to–ceiling windows offering a panoramic view of Macau’s glittering skyline. The lights of the towering casinos and hotels reflected on the calm waters below, creating a mesmerizing display. From their seats, the city looked alive, vibrant, and intoxicatingly beautiful.

Liam pulled out Izzy’s chair, motioning for her to sit. She hesitated for a moment, glancing at the view before finally settling into her seat. The soft glow of the ambient lighting caught her features as she adjusted her napkin on her lap.

“You didn’t have to do all this,” she said, her gaze briefly meeting his. She had already told him that she still had things to do tonight, but he insisted on having dinner with her. Weirdly, her eyes glanced at the ring on her finger. It was his gift from that morning, and for some reason, she found herself actually wearing it today. “You already gave me a gracious gift,” she added.
