At Southeast Aciatic…Lina, unable to sleep, tossed and turned in bed. She considered making a phone call to find out what was going on. The image of Zuko and Dave locking eyes replayed in her mind, causing her to burst into laughter.Suddenly, there was a knock on her door. Startled, Lina approached quietly and peeked through the peephole. To her surprise, it was Gia."Lina, are you awake?"Lina hesitated for a moment before deciding to open the door.Gia looked into her eyes and gave a weak smile. "Lina, can we have a proper talk?"Lina remained silent, sensing that Gia had changed. People would change, and she didn't hold it against Gia, but she wanted to know the reason.Gia continued cautiously. "Lina, let's find a quiet place to talk, okay?""Let's just stay here," Lina replied, leaning against the door frame, not inviting her in or showing any desire to accompany her. A few words would suffice to clarify things.Gia looked around hesitantly. "But this place...""It's q

Gia and Lina were startled by the sight of Violet striding over, carrying bags of various sizes in her arms. Her face had tanned a bit from spending the day under the sun at the palace, and despite the thick layer of makeup, signs of sunburn were still visible.Violet's eyes glared venomously at Lina when she spotted her."Such deep sisterly love!" Violet sneered sarcastically. "Gia, have you forgotten how we ended up sunbathing today? Your best friend here was strolling around the palace in her pretty clothes, but did she ever think about you being out in the sun?"Gia looked at Violet and spoke calmly. "This is between Lina and me. Please don't interfere."Violet gritted her teeth. "How dare you talk to me like that now, you little b*tch!?" Violet's attention was then drawn to the jar of facial cream in Lina's hand. Its packaging shimmered with the name of a certain expensive brand. Even though it was sold in duty-free shops, it still carried a high price tag. In high-end store

"Oh, it's just a minor issue," Officer Matthew apologized with a smile. "Mr. Irwin, there's no need to worry. I'll handle it promptly."Carter questioned, "Arresting someone in my hospital is considered a minor issue?"Officer Matthew paused briefly, choosing not to respond further.Lina observed the man in the white coat. Despite his friendly appearance, he exuded an aura of authority that commanded respect. His gentle voice carried an undeniable air of authority.When Carter looked at Lina, he too was taken aback. More specifically, his attention was captivated by the bangle on her wrist.Carter furrowed his brow. There was no mistaking it—the design and material of the Le Esse bangle were truly one-of-a-kind. His sister used to wear it frequently, but she had put it away after having children to prevent any damage.He never expected to see it on this girl's wrist today!Carter's assistant stepped forward. "Officer Matthew, Mr. Irwin has just finished performing surgery and is

Officer Matthew gave an honest reply, "Yes, based on Ms. Grist's identification, they are the primary suspects.""But Ms. Chapman purchased the facial cream, and she was the one who took it out. What does it have to do with Ms. Jenner?"Isn't this a subjective and arbitrary judgment based solely on one person's word?"Is this how the police academy teaches you to handle cases?"Officer Matthew felt sweat forming on his nose.Carter let out a light chuckle. "Of course, I'm just a doctor and shouldn't interfere with your police work. How you handle this case is entirely up to you, Officer Matthew. I only hope that the impact on our hospital can be minimized."Even if Officer Matthew were as dense as a block of wood, he could still sense the implications in Carter's words. He observed how Carter protected the girl named Lina behind him, taking a protective stance...Instantly, Officer Matthew straightened up and assumed a more respectful posture than when facing his superiors. He s

Lina regained her composure and decided to express her gratitude to the hospital director, the middle-aged man in the white robe who had shielded her from the police. She nodded and followed the nurse to the director's office.Just finishing his work, Carter greeted Lina with a gentle smile and gestured for her to sit on the couch. Before he could speak, Lina thanked him timidly for his help. Carter assured her that it was just a small favor and there was no need for formalities.Noticing Lina's bangle on her wrist, Carter commented on its beauty, which Lina revealed was a gift from her husband. Carter's gaze lingered on the bangle, understanding Zuko's actions from a few days ago. He briefly conversed with Lina, getting to know her better.During their conversation, Carter noticed Lina's slight discomfort and inquired about her well-being.Lina then realized a minor injury on her arm from the altercation with Violet and tried to downplay it. However, Carter insisted on a detailed

Jessie reacted swiftly, exclaiming, "So, Ms. Grist has mental problems, huh?"Carter was taken aback. He had only expressed concern and discomfort over Violet's earlier cursing of Lina. He didn't explicitly state that Violet had a mental problem."Mr. Irwin, I understand!" Jessie exclaimed joyfully, winking at him. "Ms. Grist has mental issues, and she must have applied something on her face and falsely accused our brand!"Carter was rendered speechless. "I didn't say that...""How can we trust the words of a psychiatric patient?" Jessie continued confidently.Carter widened his eyes, witnessing a unique display of medical logic."Thank you, Mr. Irwin! I'll report this right away!" Jessie bowed sincerely, smiling."No, wait..." Carter tried to interject."Don't worry, Mr. Irwin!" Jessie assured him, displaying her shrewdness. "I'll have a meeting with the PR department and ensure you and your hospital aren't involved."Carter closed the medical record quietly, feeling helpless

Renee felt nervous, and her back was drenched in a cold sweat. Confronting Melvin's ruthless gaze, she struggled to control her rapid heartbeat and calmly explained, "Mom... We don't have enough money for her medical expenses."Melvin's tense demeanor eased slightly. He gestured for the man in black to leave and led Renee into a room, retrieving a card from the drawer. "Use this money for now."Just as Renee reached out to take it, Melvin suddenly pulled the card back. "But first, tell me what you overheard.""I..." Renee gripped her clothes tightly. She had caught snippets of Melvin's rage, but the details eluded her. She had faintly heard the name "Gia," which reminded her of the person she had paid for information at the hospital. They had mentioned that Melvin's DNA testing sample was obtained from a woman named Gia.Could it be... Gia was the real Pamela?"Renee!" Melvin's patience wore thin as he stared at her with a cold gaze.Renee's heart pounded as she silently met his

Lina's thoughts turned to her lost friendship with Gia, and a sense of sadness washed over her.Keira noticed that something was amiss. "What's wrong? Don't you like this?" she asked.Lina shook her head and forced a smile. "It's not that... It's delicious, thanks, Keira. I'm lucky to have you around when I'm feeling down.""Hehe, don't say that!" Keira scratched her head. "Lina, I've always wanted to be your friend. I'm so happy to have the chance to get closer to you today!""Weren't we always friends?" Lina asked."No..." Keira's voice softened. "I mean friends like Gia and you."Lina's eyes darkened at the mention of Gia."Lina, I used to think you were extraordinary. An exceptional girl like you should have exceptional friends. I'm just... ordinary and average. I don't match up to you at all," Keira confessed.Lina smiled humbly. Her smile was pure and innocent, radiating a gentle star-like glow.But in Keira's eyes, Lina was a star beyond reach.Lina held Keira's hands.

"Only Morpheus and Sephy aren't like that. They respect and understand me. Sephy told me once, 'One's appearance doesn't indicate anything. A clean heart is what truly matters!'"Rebecca chuckled dismissively."You're a psychologist, yet you fail to grasp this," Wynn said coldly. "Actually, I pity you. You could have stepped out, yet you insist on dwelling on the trivialities."Morpheus has psychological barriers, a consequence of returning from the battlefield. No one has cured his PTSD except Sephy... It shows that a true psychologist is never just a title."What truly heals everything is love!"-One particular morning a year later, sunlight streamed through sheer cream curtains onto the floor.Persephone was sound asleep when she suddenly felt something pressing down on her...

With Morpheus' involvement, the police didn't slack off and quickly found Rebecca.That day, Rebecca was preparing to escape from a small port. The boat she had found was an illegally operating one.As she was about to board, piercing sirens sounded nearby.The boat owner, enraged upon hearing the sirens, grabbed Rebecca by her hair and pushed her into the water.Rebecca screamed for help, but he roared, "I didn't expect you to be sent by the cops!""I'm not..." Rebecca choked on water. "Sir, let's leave now. Your boat is fast. As long as we reach the open sea, no one will catch you!""Dream on!" The boat owner wanted to strangle her. "Do you not understand? These sirens are from the royal guards! Who did you bitch provoke?"Rebecca was dumbfounded. Being a foreigner, she naturally didn't understand the local affairs in the Southeast Aciatic region.The police and royal guards quickly caught up, armed, and surrounded them.Rebecca turned pale and trembled all over, her gaze gr

"You had no choice on the battlefield."Persephone looked at him with her crystal eyes. There was a magical power in them. Even if a devil was tearing him apart, her eyes would always bring him back to light.She smiled and caressed his cheek. "Though you killed your father, you saved the country.""Do you really… think so?"She nodded. "You're not at fault. He was the one who made a mistake. You were just fulfilling your job as a general to protect the country."But I also understand that he's your father who brought you up, after all. You guys must have had happy days before that happened, right?"Morpheus held his head low in silence."You did well as the protector of the country," she said softly. "But as a son, you can secretly pay homage to him."Persephone held his hand. "Reconcile with your father, Morpheus. You'll also reconcile with yourself by doing that, okay?"He was stunned for a long time and felt a lump in his throat.-Morpheus stayed with Persephone in the

"No way!" Christopher smirked, glancing at Morpheus. "To him, you're his only princess! I just got lucky for the princess carry, thanks to you!""Yeah, at least you're self-aware!" Persephone nodded, rubbing her chin."We've known each other for so long! What kind of person do you think I am?" Christopher laughed. "I can be a bit shameless at times, but..."But upon learning that the one she loved was the unbeatable god of war, he willingly stepped back, offering his blessings with a smile."Okay, okay. You two stop crowding around me!" Christopher waved his hand. "Sephy needs more rest, and I'd like to get some more sleep, too! Once we heal, let's go out and have some fun together!""You're still thinking about fun?" Morpheus' deep voice intervened with a wry smile. "With the factory explosion incident, the royal family is furious and will thoroughly investigate it. Many people will probably be coming to talk to you both in the next few days. After all, you two are the most direc

"Let's get out first!""Hey, wait..." Persephone pointed to the other side.In moments of life and death, it wasn't appropriate to laugh, but Morpheus still chuckled. The young Prince Christopher was sprawled on the floor in a very ridiculous pose, and they almost forgot about him!"Don't worry," Morpheus whispered. "I won't let anything happen to him."He had Persephone cling to his back and then carried Christopher.Christopher was a tall fellow, so it took some effort to carry them both to a safe place.Fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars rushed in. Their sirens pierced the sky, startling a flock of birds.The fire was soon extinguished, and Persephone and Christopher received timely treatment. Luckily, their burns weren't too severe, and even more fortunately, their faces were unharmed.When Christopher woke up, he felt bandages wrapped around his head, and his skin had a burning sensation. His heart sank, and he was almost on the verge of tears."Tell me the truth! A

There was fire everywhere. Flames rushed toward Persephone like menacing dragons. Her consciousness grew increasingly blurred, but the searing pain coursing through her body became clearer. She struggled to get up, the agony almost unbearable.Despite several attempts, it was futile...Something was pinning her feet down, and stones kept falling on her. She couldn't even muster a shout.Many images flashed through her mind in that fleeting moment, each frame featuring Morpheus' face…She remembered the times they had spent together in Flinge, how he had initially distanced himself from her, then later had exerted every effort to protect her. She recalled how he would gently ruffle her hair and call her "silly goose"..."Morpheus, I'm afraid I might have to go first..."The fire grew fiercer, explosions resonated continuously, and she could no longer hold on.Christopher, who was nearby, wasn't any better.Amidst the roaring flames, he couldn't see anything clearly, only pulling

"No need, you can go back first." Morpheus glanced at him. "I'll wait here for her a little longer.""Prince Christopher wouldn't do anything to Ms. Hamerton...""Alfred, what are you thinking?" Morpheus couldn't help but chuckle. "I know exactly what Christopher is like, but I just want to wait here for Sephy. Christopher mentioned that she'd specifically designed these fireworks for me. Hah! I'm the useless one. I don't even dare to go inside and take a look.""Sir, don't say that.""If I wait here, will it count as accompanying her in her efforts?"Alfred nodded.Morpheus smiled and sent Alfred back. He continued waiting under the tree.The air in Southeast Aciatic was hot and humid. The shade of the banyan tree offered some relief, but it couldn't completely dispel the oppressive heat.Morpheus took a deep breath, about to move elsewhere, when he glimpsed a suspicious figure swiftly darting through the factory's side gate.The security at the side gate was lax, making it e

Christopher struggled to swallow the bite of the sandwich in his mouth for what seemed like ages. He gazed at Persephone, his mind wandering back…He didn't just know Morpheus. He had been close since childhood to the children of the two prominent military families in Southeast Aciatic.Compared to the Harrises, he preferred visiting the Ortons, especially when he got to spend time with Morpheus. He considered Morpheus a friend, a brother even, having engaged in countless mischief together, much to their parents' dismay.In his memory, Morpheus was someone who smiled a lot, radiating warmth and brightness like the Southeast Aciatic sun when he did.However, from the moment Kaiden betrayed the country, Morpheus never smiled again, gradually growing distant from Christopher as well.It wasn't until that evening at the gates of the palace that Christopher felt like it had been a lifetime."I... I don't know him." Christopher forced a smile. "Where would I have met your boyfriend!"

Morpheus wasn't just an ordinary person!Christopher wholeheartedly accepted his defeat to Morpheus."Then... I'd like to invite you to come over to my place for a while as a friend. That's fine, right?"-A few days later, Persephone finally ran into Christopher, who had been missing in action for days, in the classroom."Hey, you finally showed up!" She dashed over, plopping down in the seat beside him and handing him breakfast. "You haven't eaten, right? Let's eat together!"Usually, Christopher would readily accept, but he waved his hands now. "No, no, no!""What's wrong?" Persephone widened her eyes. "This breakfast isn't poisoned!"Christopher awkwardly smiled. "You have a boyfriend, so maybe... we should keep some distance."Persephone burst into laughter. Then she remarked, "Strange... Morpheus was right!""Uh, what?""My boyfriend!" She chuckled. "He made this breakfast. I asked if he could also make a portion for you, and he said sure, just worried you wouldn't tak
