After calming down, Rosa decided to go outside and found Zane waiting for her in a secluded corner."So, did you manage to gather any information from Daisy?" Zane asked as Rosa approached him."Daisy is extremely defensive. Not only that, she dares to provoke me. It seems like Axel has completely won her over. So, trying to tempt her with money and material things won't work," Rosa replied irritably."Or maybe Daisy and Axel really have feelings for each other," Zane whispered softly. This was the possibility that Zane expected would actually happen. That way, he can get Rosa to give up on Axel and give him a chance."Zane. What did you say?" Rosa couldn't hear him clearly, so she asked curiously."Nothing." Zane quickly changed the subject. "Rosa, don't worry too much. We'll come up with another plan to make Axel fail.""What other plan can possibly work?" Rosa showed her helplessness and frustration. Her mind was completely blank at the moment, unable to come up with any ideas."Do
After the meeting with Axel's group of friends, Daisy didn't expect to have to meet them again at Axel's request several more times. Gradually, she got used to their personalities and had no issues with them, except for Rosa, who always tried to expose the agreement between Daisy and Axel, which made Daisy quite upset. Furthermore, Rosa suggested that Daisy change her appearance to become more attractive so she would be worthy of Axel. Rosa says she is ready and enthusiastic to help Daisy in this transition. However, Daisy firmly refused. Despite that, Rosa didn't give up and persistently tried to persuade Daisy to comply. At times, Rosa makes Daisy reach her limit. Fortunately, Axel stood up to defend Daisy and asserted that he liked her just the way she was, without any changes. Axel's intervention made Rosa abandon her plan to make Daisy look worse in front of everyone. As time passed, the fake relationship between Axel and Daisy continued smoothly, and Rosa repeatedly failed to f
At this moment, both Zane and Tom have returned to the table where Axel, Daisy, and Dion are sitting."Come on, let's raise our glasses to toast Zane's birthday," Dion enthusiastically proposed amidst the cheerful atmosphere. "Wishing him health and success.""Rosa hasn't arrived yet; should we wait for her?" Tom calmly reminded Dion, dampening his excitement. Thanks to Tom's remark, everyone noticed Rosa's absence."Rosa will be late due to an unexpected matter. She called to inform me. So, let's just enjoy ourselves." Zane offers a blatant lie that sounds very believable as an explanation for Rosa's absence. It seemed like no one doubted Zane."Well then, what are we waiting for? Let's make a toast together," Dion signaled, and everyone followed suit, raising their glasses. As usual, Daisy used orange juice instead of wine.Unexpectedly, some other guests approached to congratulate Zane, and then they sat down to chat with the group. Dion knew these people, so he took the opportunit
After Egan left, everyone quickly forgot about what had just happened and resumed their cheerful conversations. However, both Daisy and Axel began to experience unusual symptoms. Their bodies gradually felt a transformation. Everything seemed to become more vibrant, and an overwhelming sense of excitement engulfed them both.Zane had been discreetly observing Axel since Egan left, and when he realized that the aphrodisiac had taken effect, he proceeded with his plan. But before Zane could take action, he noticed his phone ringing. It was a call from Rosa. Perhaps Rosa was getting anxious while waiting, so she finally decided to call Zane to find out what was going on. To comfort Rosa and deliver good news, Zane decided to step away to a quieter place to answer the phone."Where are you going, Zane?" Dion curiously asked when he saw Zane suddenly stand up."I need to take a phone call," Zane replied. "It's too noisy here. I'll be back in a moment.""Yeah, go ahead." Dion nodded in agre
Axel didn't have to wait long, nor was he surprised when Rosa, after seeing the photo, immediately went to the hotel where Axel and Daisy spent the night to verify. Upon arriving, Rosa encountered Zane and Dion waiting for the elevator to go up to Axel's room. They were curious and wanted to find out the truth, so they came to check. Meanwhile, Tom, who already knew what had happened, remained calm and continued to sleep at home."Rosa, are you okay?" Seeing Rosa looking worried and frightened, Zane quickly asked with concern."Both of you, please tell me this isn't right." Rosa was agitated, shaking her head in denial, saying, "There's no way Axel would sleep with that ugly girl.""Rosa, I think..." Zane was about to console Rosa but was interrupted by Dion."If we want to know if it's true or not, we just need to verify it," Dion expressed his opinion.Dion's words made the atmosphere between the three people fall into silence. Each person had their own private thoughts. While Rosa
Rosa, laden with pain and despair, left the hotel. Zane, worried about leaving the young girl alone, suggested that Dion should go ahead while he stayed with Rosa."Dion, you go ahead. I'll stay with Rosa for a while.""I know. Take care of Rosa, okay?"Zane nodded at Dion, then turned back to Rosa, his gaze comforting but also containing deep sorrow."Rosa," Zane gently called as he noticed Rosa suddenly stopping and sitting down on the floor."Go away; I don't need pity." Rosa protested abruptly as Zane approached and touched her."Rosa, leave me here with you." Zane gently persuaded, "We'll find a way to deal with this situation, okay?"Rosa didn't answer because she couldn't stop thinking about what she had just witnessed. Rosa feels like she's being caught up in an endless struggle with love, trust, and betrayal. It's because Rosa is too amorous, loves Axel alone, and then has negative thoughts, but Axel has never felt in love with Rosa. Up until now, the owner of Axel's heart ha
Upon reaching the hospital, Daisy hurriedly searched for the emergency room, where she found Grace sitting outside, anxiously waiting for news about Henry. Seeing the teary eyes and worried expression of her friend only added to Daisy's concern."Grace, how's Henry?" Daisy approached her, asking with uncertainty.Upon seeing Daisy, Grace burst into tears, choked up as she spoke, "I'm so sorry, Daisy. It's all my fault. I wasn't watching Henry, and he fell off the slide. I'm a useless aunt, and if anything happens to Henry, I'll"Calm down, Grace." Daisy gently comforted her friend. "Everything will be okay. Don't blame yourself anymore.""But I..." Grace sobbed, her hands covering her face, too ashamed and guilty to meet Daisy's gaze.Daisy sat down next to her, gently embracing Grace, allowing both of them to lean on each other without collapsing."Henry will be alright. He'll be fine," Daisy repeated the positive mantra in Grace's ear. It was an action to encourage her friend's pani
Everything couldn't end like this, Rosa thought silently in her heart. She would never allow Axel to get what he wanted. Rosa clung stubbornly to her narrow-minded and selfish thoughts. And then, a strong impulse pushed her to take a daring action—to chase after Axel.Seeing Rosa hurriedly leaving the room, Zane also stood up to follow. Dion noticed this and asked Tom with concern:"Should we follow them? I can tell that Rosa is not in a stable state of mind, and I'm afraid she might do something reckless."Tom tilted his head and pondered for a moment."Let them handle it on their own; this has nothing to do with us. Besides, Zane is with her, and he knows how to deal with and support Rosa." Tom responded coldly, finishing his drink."What about Axel? I'm worried he might get agitated and harm Rosa." Dion expressed concern. "You know Axel's temperament; aren't you worried?""There's no need to pay attention to Axel. I trust his ability to control himself." Tom confidently replied, sh
