"I want you to be back, as my wife again, Xiellenna. I'm sorry. I truly am sorry. I know I've been a damn bastard, hurting you and leaving you behind. But right now, I genuinely want you back. I want to start a new life with you. I want everything to revolve around you, both tomorrow and in the future. I want to be the husband you always desired, Xiellenna. A real husband. The one you truly deserve," he proclaimed passionately.
Meanwhile, I remained silent, ensnared in his embrace. My face pressed against his chest, I had no intention of responding. How could this be? Why had the winds suddenly shifted? It felt as if the breeze had carried away a tiny fragment of myself.
Tears welled up once again, as I replayed his words in my mind. Mentally, I hissed at the audacity of it all. He was truly unbelievable.
"Sorry? Sorry for nearly destroying me? Sorr

Exelle...Whatever it is that they want will never happen!I mentally yell and shift my gaze to the car window where I am seated. From here, behind the tinted glass, I can clearly see the figures of two people engaged in a lively conversation inside Starbucks.Hans and Rylie.Tsk.I thought they broke up after the news between me and Hans spread like fire, but what is this sight before me now? And they are positioned by the window where they are clearly visible to many people. Or is it all an act? They certainly look like a sweet couple reuniting, but even from my vantage point, I can still sense something fishy.It's disgusting and sickening.With this thought in mind, the taste of my coffee suddenly changes as I notice a paparazzi secretly capturing photos of the two. And take note, it seems like that bitch, Rylie, is aware of the papar

Exelle...Plan 07: Enter the demon's lair.It's funny to think that even now, I'm still following the childish Revenge Note that I made up. But I guess without plans, I shouldn't be here. The seventh plan went smoothly, and for the people I faced in the meeting earlier, I was a threat that needed to be eliminated before I could wreak havoc.But they're in for a surprise because I won't be easily eliminated, especially since I've just arrived here. Wait, no. I am a former resident of MON and the rightful heiress, but I was easily discarded. Well, Exelle, you were foolish and weak back then, right?I mentally rolled my eyeballs, disgusted with the memories connected to this place.It's infuriating.I feel disturbed by something deep within my chest whenever I think of the memories I have in this company.MON Corporation's Tower.One

Exelle ..I hummed a tune that had slipped into my mind, twirling a strand of my hair absentmindedly. Pressing my lips together, I allowed a smile to grace my face. Everything was going according to my expectations, and yet, no one realized that I was the mastermind behind it all. As the elevator doors opened, I stepped out, my smile unwavering, and I couldn't help but let out a small laugh.Crazy as I might appear, this was just the natural me.My reverie was interrupted when I heard the familiar chime of the elevator as it reached the floor where my office was located. Stepping out, I began walking towards my workspace. I had just come from the construction site of EX Royale, where the building was still being completed but already showing amazing results. With a grin, I stopped in front of my office, but before I could even touch the doorknob, someone suddenly pulled me back.I couldn't utter a complaint as the person's palm landed harshly on my cheek, causing a stinging sensatio

Exelle..."Hello Jules, did you ever receive a call from Sam?" I asked Jules from the other end of the line as I paced anxiously in the middle of my office. I couldn't seem to sit still."There's none. And it's already been a month since the last call I had with her. What's the matter?" Jules replied from the other line, and I found myself biting my nails in nervousness."She called me last week to meet me at Dereko's Cafe, but after two hours, she didn't show up. Then later, I received a message from her saying she couldn't make it suddenly." I relayed everything to the person on the other end of the line. I pressed my lips together after responding to her, bringing my finger to my mouth, biting my nails due to the sudden rush of anxiety in my chest."Last week? But now, you haven't received anything from her again? That's not like Samara at all. But Xielle, don't worry o

Exelle ...Lies.Could it be a lie?"What do you mean he's in Italy? I mean, I saw him with my own two eyes. And I'm sure it was Alexis. I'm not blind or anything, and of course, I'm sane enough not to see some certain illusion. Besides, it's not a hallucination or whatever you may call it." I spoke continuously, then paused. Taking a deep breath, I continued, "I really did see him. I clearly saw him that night! I clearly—hah."I gasped for air, closed my eyes, and gave a smack on my own forehead before letting out a deep sigh through my slightly parted lips. I rested my body on the desk and looked up at the ceiling with barely open eyes. This was all so confusing, and I didn't like it.The anxiety that my thoughts about Alexis may have gone awry bothered me. I felt nauseous and paranoid."I don't like this, Elle," his musky voice whispered from the other line. He was calling me Elle again. Even though we hadn't met each other in person, or maybe we did, but I just couldn't remembe

Exelle..."So, this is the so-called twist?"As I scanned the pictures in my hands, my eyes turned colder. The images led me to my brightly lit laptop screen, which felt like a block of ice, leaving me cold and lost. It was as if my soul had turned into a dreary vapor, even after feeling cold.The ridiculous twist of fate turned into an unheard whisper in the wind."Lex..." I murmured his name.I miss you.I like you.And I'm so glad that I didn't fall for you.Yet, I almost did."How am I supposed to trust people when even you have gone sideways? Or maybe, from the very start, I shouldn't have accepted you. What an insane idea of mine." I chuckled bitterly to myself.How am I supposed to react? It's not like I knew his intentions from the start.Ah. Really?I guess I still lack something. I guess Exelle

Exelle..."Xielle, do you remember what I told you about our family's hidden paradise?"I heard my father's voice in front of me. I was currently reading a book while sitting on the sofa in the lounge of my father's office at MON. I had come here to escape my mother's attempts to seize my peaceful time by leaving the house. I lifted my head to face my father, who was smiling as he watched me.His dark hair, neatly combed, matched his hazelnut eyes, which reflected brightly in the sunlight. They were the same eyes that Hans had, and I loved them the most. My father was a human copy of Apollo, which must have been why my mother fell for him deeply.How I wished I had some of my father's genes so that I could look like Apollo's child too.My classmates from elementary and high school used to debate whether I w

Exelle..."Xielle, did you know? I don't really trust that childhood friend of yours," Samara hissed, her nose crinkled in annoyance. She was glaring at Rylie, my childhood best friend. I didn't understand why she didn't like Rylie, but I couldn't help but laugh at her expression, which looked kind of cute."Why is that? She's kind, isn't she?" I replied, trying to convince her with a bright smile.We were currently at the academy's football field. This would be our last year in high school, so we were spending most of our time lying on the grass carpet that covered the field. We watched Jilles, our boy best friend who was the twin of another friend, Jules, practice while Rylie was in the hallway talking to another student."I find her an
