“This ring is the down payment for stealing your life away.”

When business mogul Lu Chen spent a fortune at a high-profile auction to buy back the cheap silver ring Lin Chenxi had lost years ago, then slipped it onto her finger himself, the entire elite world was stunned.

Everyone knew Lu Chen was cool-headed and decisive, and never made a deal at a loss.

But no one knew that he had already calculated every detail of his life for her.

Lin Chenxi once thought Lu Chen was her salvation when she had nowhere else to turn.

When her designs were stolen and her reputation ruined, he appeared out of nowhere, bought her rival’s company, gave her access to the best resources, and propelled her to the top of the industry.

He gave her unparalleled affection and absolute freedom: “Do whatever you like. I’ll cover the losses.”

She flourished in the kingdom he built for her, believing she’d found a mentor and a love that held nothing back.

Until that signet ring appeared.

Until his low voice shattered every illusion of peace.

Only then did she realize she’d long since fallen into a tender trap woven over many years.

Every so-called coincidence was planned; every act of devotion concealed a calculation.

But there was one thing Lu Chen hadn’t accounted for:

The rose he had carefully nurtured had already grown sharp thorns.

He thought he was the hunter in control of everything, never realizing that he, too, had become prey, a prisoner beneath the stars.
