“You weren’t like this before, were you?” Same face, but definitely not the same pushover. How could someone change this much? It’s like she’s a different person. If she had always been like this, he wouldn’t have underestimated her.
“Well, think of me as having a split personality then. Get used to this version of me, and if you can’t, I’ll make sure you remember me vividly.”
Eulalia tossed the magazine she was holding onto the table and said in an orderly manner, “I want the money transferred to me before midnight, and the termination contract sent to my email by the weekend.”
Cylus’ face twisted, “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t terminate the contract?”
“I don’t want to terminate it now, but that doesn’t mean I won’t want to in the future. Do you really think your lousy co
Percival watched the car drive away, feeling a sudden emptiness inside. How could someone have eyes so similar to hers? The way she looked at him was exactly like in his dreams, and just thinking about it brought him immense pain.Oliver ran up to him, out of breath. “Boss, what’s up?”Percival murmured, “I just saw Eulalia.”Oliver paused, thinking back to the scene. “You mean the woman who just got in the elevator was Eulalia?”Percival didn’t reply, but his silence was confirmation enough.The woman who got in the elevator was wearing a mask that covered her face entirely, showing only her eyes. Oliver couldn’t understand how Percival recognized her as Eulalia.Besides, Eulalia had died three years ago, burned alive on a snowy Christmas day. They all knew that.“Boss, she’s been dead for three years. There’s no way you saw her.”
Back then, Ms. Hayak wanted to take Misty away, but Misty refused to leave. She absolutely refused to leave that empty mansion.Her legs were badly injured at the time. Even after recovery, she walked with a limp - a lifelong injury.The once beautiful ragdoll cat was left with only one ear after the terrible fire, and her fur was patchy. Percival kept glancing at the selfie Eulalia had taken with the cat.It was hard to believe this was the same gorgeous ragdoll from the photo.Misty became lonely after Eulalia died, eating and sleeping all alone. She spent most of her time in places Eulalia used to hang out.Percival tried to approach her, but always ended up scratched and bitten. Eventually he gave up and just filled her food bowl daily. He left the litter box cleaning to the daily cleaning service.After putting out cat food and water, Percival went upstairs with his pajamas to shower.He took a cold shower. With his clothes off, various scars were visible on his skin - knife mark

Victor's schedule was always kept under wraps. Fans only knew he was flying to Windwatch today, but not the exact time. Even so, it caused quite a stir, with fans camping out at the airport before dawn.But Victor was too good at disguising himself. He made it onto the plane through the VIP lane without being noticed.He didn't like traveling with an entourage, just his manager accompanying him.Victor had only entered showbiz two and a half years ago. His very first movie earned him a grand slam of awards. He gained tons of fans thanks to his excellent acting and handsome looks.While other stars who debuted at the same time were still figuring out how to act, he was already at the top of his game from day one.In just two short years, he'd starred in three movies, all rated above 8.8.When people assumed he was just coasting on his looks, he insisted on relying on skill instead. And he was so incredibly talented that he achieved a reputation of "No bad movies with Victor Truex."His
Victor asked the flight attendant for an iced coffee. She recognized him right away and got all flustered, bringing over a bunch of sugar packets with the coffee.Victor loves coffee but can't handle the bitterness - all his fans know that.He mumbled a "thanks" in that lazy, deep voice of his. When he talks low like that, it's a bit raspy and sends shivers down your spine.The flight attendant was blushing hard. If she wasn't on the job, she totally would've asked for his autograph.Victor drank half the coffee before setting it aside and pulling out his phone to scroll through Twitter. His manager glanced over and immediately frowned."Why are you still looking at her trending topics?" he asked.Victor was checking out Eulalia's trending posts. He didn't know why he was so into this chick, but he'd even made a burner account just to follow her."Don't tell me you've got a thing for her," his manager said, looking horrified. It wasn't crazy for him to think that - Victor had never fo
The manager secretly checked out Eulalia's looks, but couldn't see her full face since she was wearing a mask.Still, her vibe was way different from her online image. Her makeup-free skin was delicate and clear, and her hair wasn't like crazy - just naturally flowing down her back.Maybe feeling hot, she casually braided her long hair and tossed it over her shoulder. Her fluffy hair made the back of her head look nice and round, with cute little ear tips peeking out that you just wanted to pinch.Even from far away, you could see her long eyelashes framing those almond-shaped eyes. Eulalia's eyes were definitely her best feature - slightly upturned at the corners, super captivating when she looked at you intently."She seems pretty different from the Eulalia I know online and in person?" the manager said.Honestly, if he hadn't looked closely, he wouldn't have recognized her as Eulalia at all. He had no idea how Victor, who's usually bad with women's faces, spotted her right away."S
When they arrived in Windwatch, the flight attendants did their final safety checks and reminded passengers to prepare for landing.Eulalia slowly woke up, her eyes still sleepy. She rubbed her shoulders and quietly waited for the plane to land.During the 10-15 seconds of landing, there's a feeling of weightlessness. Eulalia looked out at the scenery - Windwatch was still the same city, not much had changed in three years.After the plane stopped, Eulalia got up and walked towards the VIP exit. She moved unhurriedly, turning with her bag.Seeing Eulalia coming, Victor suddenly stood up, blocking her path like a mountain.Victor was very tall - Eulalia only came up to his shoulder. She took a step back to keep some distance, raising her eyes to meet his gaze directly.Victor's previous excitement completely crumbled under Eulalia's stare. He tensed up and ave
Eulalia pushed down her thoughts. "Mr. Truex, could you move aside? I'm in a hurry to get off the plane."Victor obediently stepped back. Seeing Eulalia heading for the VIP exit, he quickly caught up and started babbling behind her."Where are you going after you get off? Straight to the hotel the staff set up? I'm heading there too. How much luggage do you have? I can get my manager to help you carry it..."Bob thought to himself: "...I'm your manager, not a porter. Even if I was an assistant, I'm not here to help you hit on girls."Eulalia kept walking without slowing down. She just said coolly, "Your fans are waiting outside. I don't want to be seen with you."Victor felt a pang in his heart. For the first time, he felt like being super famous was a mistake.Why did he even get into showbiz in the first place?It was because he kept hearing a voice in his head, telling him to stand in the spotlight so a certain girl would notice him.He didn't understand why he had such a cringey t
