A Sleepless Night in Auckland [Rekindled Romance]

Urban Fairytale | Rekindled Romance | Legal Elite

Brilliant, resilient lawyer × proud, jealous heir

December is midsummer in the Southern Hemisphere.

A Christmas dinner for a top-tier law firm in Auckland is being held at an estate.

Mo Shuangjue, heir to the Mo Group, has been invited. He chats easily with the firm's senior executives over drinks. Nearby, a group of junior employees laugh and chatter. One graceful figure among them is especially striking and radiant.

She stands beside a man, their manner intimate.

"Who's that man?"

"Her boyfriend."

Mo Shuangjue casually swirls the red wine in his glass. "I see."

Someone beside him asks cautiously, "Mr. Shuang, should I call her over?"

Mo Shuangjue smiles faintly. "Don't interrupt a couple."

He watches her laughing and chatting with the man, his gaze growing darker.

What a sweet couple.

No wonder she had no regard for their past, cut off contact, and coldly shut him out just a few days ago. So she'd found someone new.

That night, a silver Rolls-Royce disappeared into the cool darkness of Auckland.

The car came to a steady stop outside Yin Que's home. A man in an evening suit stepped out and leaned lazily by the door.

He saw Yin Que get out of her boyfriend's car, unsteady on her feet and clearly drunk. Loosening his tie, he stepped forward and took her from the man's hands.

"I'll take it from here."

He drew her into his arms and carried her inside.

Yin Que's eyes were hazy with drink. "Let's get married."

Mo Shuangjue's heart leapt, then sank. The smile on his lips froze. "Who are you going to marry?"

Under the lingering moonlight, someone stayed awake all night.

The next day.

When Yin Que woke, Mo Shuangjue was calmly fastening his cufflinks.

He looked up at his leisure. "You're awake. You proposed to me last night, and I said yes. I'm your fiance now."

Yin Que: "?"

"Break up with that guy."

Yin Que: "..."

"From now on, I'm the only man who gets to stand by your side."

#No matter who you want to marry, you can only marry me

#He'll seize even the tiniest chance to claim a title for himself
