" How did my parents know that I was searching for that man? Because it's only you who knows about it?" The steam fades into the thin air in the bar, as she sips the coffee. Her sharp eyes are on Ben who is standing still as if he is caught in something unmovable." Wh... What are you talking about?" Ben shudders, clenching the tray that he is holding tightly. But the cold sweat on his forehead and those unfocused eyes are giving away his lies. " Do you know what I hate most? Betrayal. Whether I do or not it should be within my personal space. Why did you tell my parents about it?" Her cold eyes shift, staring at Ben. Swallowing hard, Ben places the tray on the table and sits down." I didn't know who they were. Once they introduced themselves. I was worried that they might have learned about your job." He sighs sharply, rubbing his neck. " But it wasn't. They found out that I hacked their system and collected information."" What a lousy Hacker you are!" she scoffs finishing her
" Let him go! Why does he always call you when I am right in front of him? Do you like him that you can't block his number?"Oryx's sharp eyes shrink more, with annoyance as she is being distracted by an anonymous call. " Who are you? Miss!" She said as she kept repeating herself to watch the footage. " Aren't you Oryx?"" Yes. I am!"" Then you should know this number. The owner of the number is my love of life!" the girl hisses angrily, as she doesn't like Oryx's cold and indifferent voice." That's not my fault that your crush doesn't like you. Stop being pathetic and try to win him over. I am hanging up!"Hanging up on the girl, she soughs. Not frustratedly but disappointedly..." Why would you do such a thing to your own family? Liliana!"Her dark eyes watch the video repeatedly. The answer is the same. Nobody attacked her. Instead of that, It was Liliana herself who hurt Maria and broke her arms. Oryx's hand reaches to her forehead, slightly rubbing as she can't understand hum
" He is not interested in your daughter!" Mr. Turner places the cup of coffee on the table and speaks. Both of them are having their evening snacks on their beautiful balcony. " She is your daughter too. And I don't think it will be problematic for us!" Mrs. Turner muses, placing one sugar cube in her coffee. " What makes you say that? What if Marquis asks for divorce?" " You still don't know your daughter, do you?" She grins and sips her coffee." I do." He responds confidently." Then you should have known right away that she is having one-sided love with Marquis. Even if he doesn't like her, she will make sure he stays with her. At least until she finds her son!"" She is getting stronger and bolder, to be honest. Why do I think we don't know exactly what is going on with her!" he rubs his trimmed beard while wondering. " Did we ever care about it? But one thing is suspicious about her. How did she know that hacker when she never stepped out of the house!? Sometimes your daug
" All done!"" Good Job! Everyone! And Oryx, Come into my room right now! I need to talk!" What's with the expression he is holding now? As if she did something awful. Every time she looks at her Boss, her neck gets stiff. Of all of his characteristics, one notable thing is how overbearing and Demanding he is. Stretching her arms and neck, she walks into the office room, her eyes lift, moves in the direction where her Boss is opening a drawer. " I need to leave! It's already midnight! I am a married person unlike you, Boss!" Shrugging, she throws herself on the couch. Has zero intention to show respect to the person who gives a death glare at her." You almost fainted there. What's going on with your body? Did you miss your monthly medical checkup?" " Here goes another nagging ~"" Oryx! You almost ruined the plan. Don't you know how dangerous it is in the middle of the mission?" He shouts angrily but a strained sigh escapes from his lips when he finds Oryx snoring already." Yaa
As the wind of dawn peeks into the room, her eyelids tremble involuntarily to part away. With a strong headache, her eyes slowly open. Her hand reaches to her head, slightly pressing the forehead.Properly opening her eyes, she scans the room which leaves her feeling Deja vu as she finds herself in the bed of a stranger. " This is not my room!" she whispers trying to get up. But her eyes move to her left hand. An IV drop is attached to her hand." What's going on?" She whispers, looking around the room. " You are up!" She startles when a familiar voice speaks. He with slow and steady steps approaches her holding a tray. Covering herself with the blanket, she keeps alert. No matter how people familiar can be, in this situation, all she can do is see them as her enemy. She doesn't want to risk anything because of some mistakes. " Gallian? What are you doing here? Where am I?" The green orbs of his eyes glint with a sharp gaze. Placing the porridge on the nightstands, he grabs the
Aren't all female protagonists blessed with a smooth life? A very familiar path, struggle, get someone who will support you all the way to the end and a very happy ending. However, does life actually show it that easily? What if the Female protagonist becomes the villain here?Her eyes are on the phone screen, the nightmare that she always wanted to avoid. It is getting involved with any kind of scandalous incidents. All she wants to have a simple life here, but someone is out there, who wants to make things hard for her. " Despite being in a tight position, you must think about her, Marquis! She might have her own reasons. Support her!"Hearing those words from Liliana, it didn't feel like a consolation or hope to see her Beloved support her.It tasted like a bitter mockery from the Female Protagonist to the Villainess, who always appears as a saint and everyone's favorite, and represents Villainess as the Evil here. However, it makes her feel pathetic, to hear the person she cher
" We tried to interrogate the Reporter who followed you there. But he has the same answer every time. Someone sent him the location! It's from an anonymous sender and unable to locate!"Ben places the cup of coffee on the table as he speaks. No matter how much she tries to think about it, it feels so odd that reporters or paparazzi can find them moving at midnight. Especially the route they use is Exceptional. However,. except for someone who was following them from the very beginning." Did you receive Gallian's call? He has been trying to reach you out! Must be worried about you!"" I don't precisely care about him. No matter what he broke the rules. Me being sick or not it's totally my fault and I will get published for this. But he taking me to his house was a ridiculous idea!" " Well, we can't deny. However, he did because he was worried about you. I wouldn't have left Someone I like!"" But you should know boundaries when the person you like is married. At least you should give
Oryx can always hide her true feelings no matter what is going on with her life. Ben has known her since she started working with his brother-in-law. Among all their coworkers, she chose Ben to get along with and share her all problems with. Not because Ben is a hacker, but because she knows the deepest secrets of Ben's entire family.Generally, she looks like another normal beautiful woman in the city, hoping to get her ultimate life. But those who know her pretty well can tell that, Oryx's true feelings never be able to be discovered.However, Recently, Oryx's anxiety and stress for her husband's daughter is undeniably strong. She doesn't care about herself, she doesn't want to know about her husband's deepest secrets to trap him. All she does is protect.Love changes people. And it is proven. Despite having no relationship with the child, she is willing to risk her own life to save her. But, who is going to save Oryx?Ben sighs deeply, watching her sleeping at the desk. The coffee
" I brought you some fruits. You should eat more healthy!"Mr Williamson places a basket of fresh fruits. All of them are Mrs Williamson's favourite fruits. Today is visiting day and Mr Williamson like another week, didn't forget to visit his wife." Why are you here? I told you not to come here anymore!" Mrs Williamson hangs her head down, pinching her nails while avoiding his eye contact." Today is your son's wedding. They are trying to start afresh. Although they don't remember you anymore, they don't feel any emptiness thankfully." " Are you trying to mock me?" Mrs Williamson hisses, eyes are filled with tears." Yes. Because you deserve more than just mocking. You should know, that you are nothing but the worst memory in our lives."" Enough! Leave! I didn't ask you to come here and nag. Don't come to visit me anymore!" Mrs Williamson yells, almost grabbing the basket to throw. But she stops seeing her husband's cold and emotionless face." I will visit. Until you take your las
Marquis buries his face on his wife's chest who fell asleep while hugging a book. Her scent drives him crazy, but it gives him the feeling of home. His only place where he can find himself, he discovers himself every day." You are back," Oryx opens her eyes slightly, running her fingers through his hair. " Yes. Mrs Williamson! I am back!" He kisses her cleavage and grins. " What did Dad say? Will he move in?" " With a condition! Of course!" " What condition? Is he okay? He must be stressed!" " He wants us to get married again!" Marquis laughs slightly, "Getting married? Why? We are already married!"" He wants us to get married with full of love. This time, with a confirmed happy ending. Don't you want to?" Oryx's smile disappears as she remembers about their wedding. It was enough hard for her to keep on. But she did." I am sorry!" Marquis notices her expression and immediately apologizes." No. Don't be. Let's do this. Let's get re-married. This time, you must kiss me and
" You sure?" Marquis's eyes widen in surprise..." I am..." she grins." No. Really? Are you sure you want to work with me?"" Am I not suitable for your com-?"Oryx's eyes shut with a smash against her soft lips. Marquis gives her a quick but passionate kiss before cupping her face..." I will make you my personal assistant. You will always be in front of my eyes, safe and sound. I will be able to protect you from everyone. You will -"Oryx blinks her eyes, trying to understand the summary of his words... " So for my safety, you asked me to quit my job!" Marquis pauses momentarily before rubbing his nape, " I am thinking of giving the responsibility to Vasquez and the Government. So that I can keep us away from the trouble. I want my kids to grow up in a quiet and peaceful place. Maria went through the same situation twice. They're kids. It will hurt them and give them nightmares! So-"" I understand!" Oryx smiles, " That's why I have been thinking about the same situation."" Are y
Somehow crawling his heavy body, he walks into the house where he found his heaven on earth. Closing the door, his exhausted eyes scan the house. Within three seconds, the footsteps rhythmically create a beautiful forever familiar melody. Someone will bring a glass of juice from the refrigerator and speak..." You are home! I asked the Chef to prepare something less fatty today for you. Have the juice and take a quick shower. We will have dinner together!"However...It's not happening today. Nobody comes, the woman with grey hair, with lots of smiling lines or creases on her forehead, doesn't create a melody in the stairwells. Mr Williamson exhales sharply, his shoulder drops as he throws himself on the couch. Before his eyes, his heavenly beautiful family is no more. The woman who he showered with love doesn't exist anymore." Master! I prepared the bath." The butler speaks..." Carlan! You have been with Madam Williamson most of the time. Didn't you know she gave birth to two chil
" I... I am sorry!" Mrs Williamson whispers constantly, her eyes are on Marquis who stands with no emotions and feelings for her situation. " I... I thought -" she tried to speak but...Mr Williamson holds her hands, gently stroking the back of her hand... "You had a long time to think about everything. Thinking about trusting my words and taking a secret paternity test to clear your doubts? But, Love! You chose to keep ignorant. You used my family's worst history. You even used that horrific situation that my parents had to go through. You knew that Sarah was nothing but a servant. Yet you tried to destroy everything. But... Honey! Have you ever turned and seen that everything that you wanted to destroy is actually your handmade family? You were the one working hard on the company, you raised Marquis in the best way possible and it's you who were supposed to get the best position as a grandmother. Is it worth keeping hatred towards your own family?"" I... I am sorry!"" Some matter
" Sonya!!!" Mr Williamson roars, his eyes filled with tears for the first time in his life after marrying the woman of his life." Are you out of mind? Do you know what you are talking about?" His voice cracks and his throat gets heavier." I know, perfectly. And, you, The rude, arrogant Marquis Williamson, I am not your mother-"" ENOUGH!!!! SONYA! NO MORE NONSENSE. JUST ENOUGH!" Mr Williamson shuts her mouth, almost raising his hand. " You will regret it if you do another stupid thing!" Mr Williamson softens his voice, " So don't do something crazy!" he pleads." You can't hide the truth forever. If you didn't kill my family and my lover, I would have a great family with my Love of life and my only son, Graham. I wouldn't have to plan everything to kill you and your family. So, I don't regret doing this."Marquis, whose world is already splitting apart, looks at his father for an explanation. He wants to know the reason for everything before he sends both of them to hell. He must t
His eyes are on the red light, forever frozen, nothing can interrupt the stoned body which has lost its movements. William already informed me that the kids will be alright after they go through the therapy as soon as possible. Marquis just nodded silently, his heart was with his wife who he couldn't see right now even if he wanted to.Nobody told him exactly what happened to Oryx. So, the more time is ticking, the more overthinking, and all of the fear and anxiety bestowed upon him, make him momentarily freeze on his spot.His weak knees don't support him to walk near the door. Leaning his back against the wall, he keeps sitting on the floor, his eyes are on the light above the room." Marquis! Son! Are you alright?" Mr Williamson rushes to his son and crouches down. His eyebrows raise with Surprise, feeling the vibration of his son's body. Marquis is trembling violently." Son! What just happened?" Pulling his son into his arms, Mr. Williamson confusedly stares at the name of the
" Mom?" His voice doesn't reach out to the individual who pushed his wife, right before his eyes. His throat feels the pressure of swallowing pain, the mother who he loved and trusted more than anyone is now standing before his eyes, proudly after pushing his wife.His shaky knees move, but his attention goes to Gallian, who is limping and blood is oozing out of his forehead, moves to his mother, with the knife. Subconsciously, his hand raises, " Mother! Watch-"" Thank you for coming in the right time, Mom. She is really strong."Now his entire world collapses, his enemy just called his mother, Mom?Unable to understand what is happening, his shaky pupils watch Gallian holding the gun, pointing to Oryx who is in the pool of blood." I should call Marquis to come here. You finish her before he reaches!"Mrs Williamson grabs her phone and speaks to Gallian whose finger reaches the trigger.The moment, his mother presses the dial, the moment his phone rings, the same moment two sounds
After leaving with Rachel Doe, Marquis has yet to reach home. They are on their way to his house which is far away from Mr. Doe's residence and what creates trouble more for them is the road is surrounded by a large field of Hays. However, it doesn't take as much time as much as it is taking right now. " Both routes are blocked. Boss!" William suspects something is wrong and on both sides of the road, there are two accidents on two roads. That's why too coincidental to believe. This is the only place where the high way divided into two roads, one goes to the city and the other is the VIP area where all the rich people reside. " William! Send our people to clean the road, ASAP!" Marquis grits frustratedly. He must arrive at his house before something happens.William gets out of the car, calling his team to gather around the area. Meanwhile, Rachel scoffs, enjoying the view, " What a great lover and father! Look at your sweat! My Man surely will be happy to see you in this positi
