Ethan Roscente was the second son of the prestigious Roscente family in Los Angeles, wielding immense power and controlling sixty percent of the nation's economic lifelines.

As the CEO of HM Group and president of the International Chamber of Commerce, the idea of his wife working at a nightclub was utterly absurd.

If this scandal got out, Ethan would become the laughingstock of the entire business world. The Roscente family's century-old reputation would be ruined overnight.

Sophie Roscente was right—even if Jenna Roland picked up trash or shined shoes, people would at most call her lowborn. But working as an escort at a nightclub? That was rubbing the Roscente name in the dirt.

"Sophie, I know you're embarrassed," Jenna said calmly. "But I've done nothing wrong. I only sell drinks for a living. Everyone at the club can vouch for me. Ask your brother if you don't believe me."

Vanessa Galatea sneered. "Do you even understand Ethan's status? Do you think he'd allow his wife to work in a place like this?"

"I know his status better than anyone," Jenna met Vanessa's gaze. "But my conscience is clear."

Tracy Atlante frowned. "How can the Roscentes maintain their standing in the business world if word gets out that Mrs. Roscente works here?"

"I earn my keep with honest work. I'm not ashamed." Jenna's voice was firm.

Sophie's temples throbbed with anger. She never imagined the sister-in-law their whole family doted on would stoop to this.

If Grandma Blanche and their parents found out, they'd be furious enough to fall ill. Divorce would be inevitable.

Knock, knock, knock—

The tense atmosphere shattered as someone rapped on the door.

It opened, and Patrick Klein peered inside.

"Patrick?" Jenna frowned.

He glanced at the group before addressing her. "Mr. Valentine is here. He requested you specifically."

"Alone?"

"Mr. Roscente is with him."

Jenna's eyes darkened. Two hours ago, Ethan had claimed he had no plans for the evening. Now he was at the club.

"Which room?"

"888."

Jenna turned to Sophie. "Your brother's here. Ask him yourself."

"Take me to him," Sophie said coldly.

They arrived at the door of VIP Room 888. Jenna pushed it open without hesitation.

Ethan and Gavin Valentine both looked up. The moment Gavin saw Sophie, he shot to his feet.

"Sophie? What are you doing here?"
