“Finally back to campus,” Siren murmured as she stood in front of the campus.

There were many students walking in front of the gate. Siren walked into the grand, tall building.

She felt an intense enthusiasm as she stepped inside. The smell of fresh paint and the cleanliness of the building added to her excitement. Inside, she was greeted by the hum of conversations among students who were reconnecting after the long holiday.

Siren walked toward the main hall of the campus, where she saw several of her classmates already gathered. They looked cheerful, sharing stories about their holiday experiences. She felt relieved to meet the people who had been part of her life for so long.

“Hey, Siren! You finally came!” Elda shouted, rushing toward her. Elda's cheerful face made Siren smile broadly.

“I can’t wait to start classes again!” Siren replied. She missed the atmosphere of learning and discussing with her friends.

They began walking toward the classroom, discussing class plans and proje

    On the other hand, Sirena settled down on a chair in the library. She didn’t know that status and position held so much value in this campus.Since the moment she returned to campus, she couldn’t stop receiving bullying and insults from other students, all because of Claudya and her gang's provocations. It was all due to her father’s company experiencing a drastic decline, the falling stock prices, and even her father’s tragic decision to end his life.“So tired of avoiding annoying people,” she murmured, closing her eyes as she sat there.*Knock! Knock! Knock!*Sirena lifted her head when she heard a knock on her desk. She saw a man standing in front of her.The man smiled sweetly at Sirena. “How are you?” greeted a man named Gavindra.“Gavin?” Sirena asked, looking at the person before her. He was also a student, one year above her.Gavindra, known as Gavin among his campus friends, was a cheerful and energetic figure. Amid the gloomy atmosphere that Sirena was enduring, his warm sm

    James poured whiskey into a small glass already filled with ice cubes. With the glass in hand, he walked toward the window of his hotel room.One hand slipped into his pocket while the other held the glass. His gaze fell outside the window, taking in the bustling city at night.James inhaled the whiskey’s aroma, letting the chill of the ice flow through his fingers. His sharp eyes appeared calm, but his mind wandered, replaying Sirena’s voice from their recent phone call.Leaning his shoulder against the wall near the window, he stared at the shimmering city lights, a stark contrast to the silence enveloping his room. The world outside was alive, yet nothing could ease the longing quietly creeping into him.Every time he heard Sirena’s voice—even just brief conversations or teasing remarks—something inside him felt like “home.”He lifted the glass, letting the whiskey touch his lips, then sipped it slowly. A deep sigh followed, accompanied by the icy drink sliding down his throat. For

    "Sirena!" Gavin called out, running toward her."Hey," Sirena greeted him with a small smile."Did something happen? I was near your class earlier and heard some commotion. Are you okay?" Gavin asked, concern written all over his face.Sirena sighed and gave Gavin a faint smile. "Oh, just a little drama. Nothing serious," she replied, trying to appear calm, though Gavin could see a flicker of weariness in her eyes.Gavin frowned, his worry deepening. "A little drama? But you look exhausted. Did they bother you again?" he asked gently, his gaze filled with genuine concern.Sirena shrugged, trying to act indifferent. "Same old, Gavin. But I’m used to it. Besides, I’m not letting them ruin my day," she said resolutely, even though deep down, she felt a bit relieved that someone cared.Gavin gave her a small smile and placed his hand on her shoulder, offering quiet yet meaningful support. "If you need someone to vent to, I’m here. You don’t have to face it all alone, okay?"Sirena looked

    “James? That perverted man, what is he doing here?” Sirena thought to herself.“Well, there he is. So, what do you think? Handsome, right?” Elda asked with excitement.Sirena felt her heartbeat quicken. The man who had just turned his gaze was none other than James—the irritating bed partner who always managed to get on her nerves.James was the last person Sirena expected to see in this place, especially looking so formal and respected.She struggled to suppress her shock, though it remained internal. “That perverted man,” she thought irritably.Elda, oblivious to Sirena’s surprise, became even more enthusiastic. “Well? Isn’t he handsome?” she asked again, nudging Sirena’s arm.Sirena forced herself to maintain a calm demeanor in front of Elda, masking her sudden annoyance.“Uh… yeah, I guess,” she replied curtly, trying to redirect her focus and resisting the urge to stare at James too long.“Then let’s head inside and join the seminar,” Elda said, pulling Sirena’s arm, despite her

    Sirena stared at her reflection in the mirror. She had applied light makeup and styled her hair as beautifully as possible, wearing a mocha-colored dress that contrasted perfectly with her fair skin. Tonight, she would have dinner with James, as he had requested.She let out a soft sigh, trying to calm the nervous flutter in her chest that refused to subside. She knew it was just a dinner, but an unshakable sense of anxiety always crept in whenever she was around James. His piercing gaze had a way of seeing deeper into her than anyone else ever could.After adjusting a stray strand of hair near her temple, she picked up a small clutch and stepped out of her room. Tonight, she resolved to keep her emotions in check, even though deep in her heart, she knew there was something different about being with James.As she left her room, Brianna's voice called out, "Oh, Siren, there's a car waiting in front of the house. They said they're here to pick you up. Are you going somewhere?""Yes, Mo

    A waiter arrived and poured the finest wine into their stemmed glasses."Let's toast," James said, raising his glass.Siren hesitated momentarily but followed James's lead, raising her glass. Their eyes met briefly, and Siren could feel the intensity in James's gaze, as though he wanted to close the distance between them."To your success and everything we’ll go through together," James said with conviction, his eyes never leaving Siren.Siren simply nodded and gave a faint smile before sipping the chilled, rich wine. As the atmosphere grew calmer, Siren found a small glimmer of hope to confront her doubts. Though her emotions were still mixed, the moment gave her a semblance of peace.James set his glass back on the table and smiled, satisfied with the softening atmosphere. "I’d like to do this more often with you," he said, hinting at his desire to deepen their connection."Alright," Siren replied.“Oh, I have something for you,” James said, pulling a small square box from his jacke

    On her way to class, Sirena kept overhearing female students talking about James, who had visited the campus yesterday. James had suddenly become a campus celebrity with a swarm of admirers. She couldn’t imagine what would happen if they knew she had once been James’s bedmate.As Sirena approached her classroom, she caught snippets of a conversation between Claudya and her friends.“Are you serious? Your parents know Mr. James's family?” Ana asked.“Of course,” Claudya replied with a broad smile. “And apparently, James is single right now. Hmm... isn’t this the perfect opportunity for me?” she chuckled.“Wow, if you and James got together, you’d be the perfect match,” said Glade.“Totally! He’s handsome, and you’re gorgeous. You two would be a power couple,” Cherry added.“Absolutely,” Ana agreed.Sirena listened to their conversation about James and Claudya. Although she didn’t care, her heart felt strangely unsettled and irritated.She tried to maintain her composure despite their e

    “Siren!” Elda ran towards Siren, who was sitting under her favorite tree on campus, wearing earphones and listening to calming music.“Siren!” Elda tapped her shoulder.Siren was momentarily startled when her shoulder was tapped. She quickly removed her earphones and turned, finding Elda crouching next to her, her face full of energy."Elda, what's up?" Siren asked with a faint smile. She was used to Elda's always cheerful energy."I have good news, Siren! You won't believe it!" Elda said, grinning, her eyes sparkling with excitement.Siren raised an eyebrow, curious. "What? Tell me!"Elda took a deep breath, ready to share the news that seemed so important to her.“Ronald, he’s back at campus after taking a year off.”Thud!Siren was utterly shocked to hear that. Yes, who doesn’t know? Everyone on campus knew that Ronald was Siren’s ex. They met when Siren first started college, and Ronald was her senior."Ah, so he’s back after such a long break?" Siren asked.Elda nodded enthusiast

    "Siren?" called James. Siren was sitting pensively at the edge of the bed."This is your room card. You're in the wrong room. David is waiting for you outside; he'll take you to your room," James said, handing her the card.Siren turned to look at James. "Can't I just sleep here?"James was taken aback by her boldness. Normally, she would avoid him at all costs."Sleep here? With me?" James asked, seeking confirmation.Siren's face instantly flushed with embarrassment. She couldn’t believe she had blurted that out. Turning her head away, she tried to hide her blush. But she didn't want to be away from James. She was afraid that if she left, the reality of him being gone and all of this being a mere illusion would hit her."Um... I mean—" Siren bit her lower lip, struggling to find the right words."Actually, it's fine if you want to stay. I'll have David use your room for now. They might do room checks to make sure all guests are in their assigned cabins," James explained.Siren hesit

    "Are you hungry?" James asked Sirena, who stood near the window, gazing at the vast, close-up view of the sea."Yeah, I haven’t eaten anything," Sirena replied."Then wait a moment. I'll order us some food," James said as he walked toward the phone mounted on the wall.James quickly picked up the receiver and spoke to the room service staff. "Can you send up two full dinner sets? One with medium-rare steak and the other... a seafood platter," he ordered, glancing at Sirena. "You like seafood, right?"Sirena nodded slightly, her face still showing traces of emotions that hadn't entirely faded. "Yes, I like seafood."James offered a faint smile and continued his order. "Oh, and don't forget two fresh orange juices and your finest wine." Once done, he returned the phone to its cradle."We have a few minutes before the food arrives," he said, walking closer. "Why don't you sit down?"Sirena kept her gaze fixed on the dark, gently rippling sea under the starry sky. "I like it here; the vie

    “James…?”The man looked at Sirena with a blank expression.“Who are you?” he asked coldly. “How did you get into this room?”His voice was icy. Sirena’s heart ached, yet longed to hear his voice again.“Is this real? Am I hallucinating?” Sirena thought, frozen in place, unable to speak or move.“Why are you just standing there? If you're looking for a client, don't come here. Get out now!” he ordered.The man before her looked completely different from the warm and teasing James she knew. This version was harsh, with an almost contemptuous gaze directed at Sirena.“I… I—” Sirena’s voice caught in her throat.“Get out!” the man ordered harshly. “Leave now, or I'll throw you out myself!”Sirena swallowed hard, her gaze turning bleak as tears rolled down her cheeks.“Are you deaf? I said get out!” he snapped.Sirena flinched at his harsh tone, realizing this was neither a dream nor a hallucination. This was real—James was standing right in front of her.Irritated that the woman remained

    “How much longer until we reach the dock?” Sirena asked, ensuring the situation remained under control.“We’ll arrive in fifteen minutes, Miss Sirena,” the driver replied politely. “Mr. David apologizes for not being able to greet you personally.”Sirena let out a small sigh. Of course, David chose to act as a courteous host, though Sirena knew there was something bigger behind this invitation.Her eyes returned to the window, watching the vehicles pass by. The hum of engines blended with her swirling thoughts, digging through the possibilities of what she would face tonight. What exactly was David's purpose in inviting her? Was it a trap or simply a show of power?“Be ready for anything, Siren,” she whispered to herself, anchoring determination in her heart.The car finally approached the dock, shimmering under the lights of luxury yachts. The sound of gentle waves harmonized with the night’s atmosphere. Sirena took a deep breath, making sure she was prepared for the dangerous game t

    "Why?" Luke asked as Sirena walked toward his executive chair.Luke was currently in the Director's office, waiting for Sirena's arrival."It's nothing, Uncle."The secretary approached Sirena's desk and handed her a tablet. "Here are the reports from the recent meeting, Miss Siren," she said."Thanks. You may leave, Alice." Alice nodded politely and left the room, leaving Luke and Sirena alone."Uncle, do you know anything about this auction?" Sirena asked, handing him the invitation card David had given her earlier.Luke took the card and read it intently. "An auction hosted by the Romano Cartel family. They are one of the most prominent businessmen and also the largest mafia syndicate widely known by many. However, the Romano Cartel has never been caught because of their strong influence on the government," Luke explained."They usually hold auctions like this. The items up for auction are not ordinary; they are rare treasures, often one-of-a-kind in the world. Many top business fi

    "Why are both of you here?" Sirena asked, frowning as she looked at them."We came as representatives of the late James Scout, one of the largest shareholders here," Harry said with a wide smile."It's been a while, Sirena Reverie," Harry greeted, now standing in front of Sirena, who had risen from her seat."Yes, Uncle," Sirena replied. "If you’re here as representatives of James Scout, please, have a seat.""Thank you," David smiled, though for some reason, his smile seemed to carry some meaning.Sirena's secretary walked over to David and Harry, handing them a tablet that displayed the documents for today’s meeting discussion.Sirena quietly glanced at Harry and David. She didn’t know why Uncle Harry and David had come, using James’ name. What was their real reason? Sirena thought Vaul might be the one to represent James’ side, but these two? Harry could probably be trusted by James because of their closeness, but David? James' cousin, who always had conflicts with him whenever the

    Luke nodded firmly. "Yes. He wasn’t just a brilliant business partner, but also a sincere man. Even in our last discussion, he spoke about wanting to ensure the company’s future for you, Siren."Tears almost filled Siren’s eyes, but she held them back with great effort. "Why didn’t he ever tell me?"Luke smiled faintly. "Maybe because he wasn’t looking for recognition. He just wanted you to succeed without feeling burdened."Siren clenched her fists tightly. "Then I won’t waste everything he did. I’ll continue his fight and make sure this company remains strong," Siren said, staring at Luke with determined eyes.Luke nodded with pride. "That’s the answer I wanted to hear. We’ll face them together, Siren."Siren looked at the documents in her hands as if she could see the traces of James' hard work on every page. Her resolve grew firmer. This wasn’t just about her family anymore. It was also about preserving James' legacy.Siren closed the file decisively. "It’s time for me to show the

    "Are you going to campus, Siren?" Brianna asked as she saw Siren coming down the stairs."No, Mom. I'm going to the office," Siren replied."To the office? Is everything okay? Ramon has been coming here for the last few days. He doesn't want to tell me anything, maybe because he's worried about your condition," Brianna said."Everything's fine, Mom. Ramon came on Uncle William's orders," Siren answered."Uncle William? What does he want from you, Siren? Don't trust them. When your dad was struggling, they turned their backs on us. Even all the issues with Daddy are related to Uncle William. The reason Daddy was scammed out of trillions of dollars is all because of your uncle," Brianna complained, making Siren furrow her brow in confusion."Wait, what do you mean, Mom?" Siren asked, not understanding.Brianna took a deep breath, as if trying to calm her rising emotions. "Before your dad's downfall, Siren, our company was very strong.

    Sirena gazed thoughtfully out of the hospital room window. The heavy rain poured down, drenching the glass pane.Her mind lingered on a dream she had about James. In that dream, James seemed to be asking her to stop thinking about him and start a new life. But how could she forget James when a small life was now growing inside her womb?Closing her eyes, Sirena recalled their last encounter. That time, she had forgotten to take her contraceptive pills, and James had been quite passionate. Who would have thought that day would lead to the creation of a life now growing within her—a child who might become a lasting memory of James.She let out a long sigh, her eyes remaining tightly shut as she tried to calm the turmoil in her heart. The sound of rain hitting the window seemed like a sorrowful melody that wrapped around her being. The memories of James were too vivid, etched into every corner of her thoughts.Slowly, her hand moved to touch her still-flat stomach. There was a small life
