Amelia and the others stood frozen in place, feeling as if countless needles were pricking them. The weight of their public condemnation threatened to make them faint.As Linda turned her gaze toward Melissa and Lina, noticing their intimately intertwined hands, she felt an unexpected twinge of pain. However, she quickly put on a gentle smile."Let your mother come in," she said softly.Lina widened her eyes, slightly taken aback, and smiled at Melissa. "Shall we go in together?""No, no, it's alright..." Melissa felt embarrassed by the trouble she had caused. "Lina, I just wanted to come and see you today. I didn't expect to cause any trouble. You should go back to work, don't worry about me. I—""Since you're already here, let's go up together." Linda's voice was gentle, but each word struck Melissa's heart.Melissa looked up at her.

Mollie stood frozen, her wide eyes staring, and her hands trembling slightly. Her colleagues, who were usually bullied by her and had to please her, now stood up one after another, seeking revenge."How could Ms. Chapman possibly work overtime? The hard and tiring tasks are always assigned to the interns as part of their 'newcomer workplace training'!""Yes, Ms. Chapman has been wholeheartedly 'supporting the newcomers.' Her enthusiasm is truly admirable!""But there seems to be one intern who's an exception... When Gia arrived, she acted even more arrogantly than the boss herself. She doesn't do anything yet receives praise from Ms. Chapman every day!"Flustered and stammering, Mollie said, "You... What nonsense are you talking about?""Gia?" Linda pursed her lips and walked toward the empty workstation, gently knocking on the desk. "Is this where Gia sits?""Yes!" everyone else hurriedly answered."If she's so outstanding, why isn't she present during work hours?" Linda's gaze

The group behind them sensed something was amiss, particularly Mollie. Wasn't she supposed to be promoted and taken to a higher floor? What did this detour to a small path mean?Unable to contain her curiosity any longer, Mollie approached Linda humbly. "Mrs. Thompson, where are we going?"Linda glanced around before fixing her gaze on Mollie with a faint smile on her lips. "I think this place is just right.""Huh?""Didn't you say it takes two to tango just now?" Linda's eyes flickered with a hint of fierceness.Confused, Mollie couldn't comprehend the meaning behind Linda's words. Before she could react, she saw a flash of intensity in Linda's eyes!Suddenly, Linda raised her hand and delivered a powerful slap across Mollie's face!Mollie stood there in shock, her cheek stinging with pain.The people behind them were too stunned to utter a word.

Mollie's eyes widened, and she was left stunned.Taking advantage of the calm after the chaos, Ian ordered his men to escort her out.The colleagues who had gathered to watch were shocked and quickly dispersed, pretending as if nothing had happened.Lina felt a pang in her heart, realizing that Linda had gone out of her way to protect her. The image of Linda's efforts remained etched in her mind. She fought back tears and mustered a smile when their eyes met.Linda spoke softly, pulling out a draft from her bag. "Lina, Renee, I came here today to give this to the two of you."They opened it and looked inside. It was Mr. Sam's old work, each line meticulously drawn by him."Originally... I planned to quietly give it to you and leave. I didn't expect to encounter those people..." Linda shook her head. "Nic has told me many times not to interfere with your work, but I couldn't restrain myself today..."Both of you will have a different status in the company now," she said, taking t

Lina's beauty was so unconventional that even Abigail, who had been in the entertainment industry for a long time and had seen many beauties, was captivated by her.Intense sadness weighed on Abigail like a giant rock, crushing her spirit.She stood there, lost in her thoughts until her assistant called out to her several times."What's wrong, Ms. Abigail?" the assistant asked.Abigail didn't respond directly. She glanced at Lina and muttered, "If I were a man, I'd choose her without a second thought.""What do you mean?" the assistant inquired."Forget it." Abigail turned to her assistant. "She's really beautiful.""Oh…""He even bought her drinks... It must be sweet. Seeing them together must be sweet too."

What Melissa said struck a delicate nerve in Linda's heart.In the past, she would have charged at her, strangled her, and even slapped her. Or maybe she would have asked Ian to do it, just like how he dealt with Mollie. She would have allowed him to be as brutal as possible.But she couldn't do that anymore.She took a few deep breaths and tried to calm herself and stop the trembling. Then she looked at Melissa calmly."Don't say that." Linda's voice was soft. "You've been her mother for 20 years. You have every right to be called her mother."Melissa was shocked, and tears instantly streamed down her face. "But I stole those 20 years..."As soon as she said that, it felt like a heavy rock crushed their hearts simultaneously.Linda could hardly breathe, desperately trying not to cry.Finally, Melissa let go. After 20 years, she could finally face the truth.She asked herself, if she hadn't been sick, if fate hadn't led Lina to her real parents, would she have been able to let

"Thank you for loving my daughter, thank you for… saving her life."Melissa glanced at Linda, her expression filled with slight shock. Before she could utter a word, she suddenly felt a sharp pain coursing through her body. She bent over, her face grew pale, and sweat dripped down her face.-Lina ushered Abigail into her office. Meanwhile, Renee was in the drafting room, collaborating with colleagues on design research.Wanting to ensure the celebrity's privacy, Lina closed the door and swiftly rolled down the blinds. She even went to fetch coffee, ensuring no one would enter or interrupt.Lina's thoughtfulness made Abigail feel a tinge of guilt. Abigail removed her sunglasses, revealing her beautiful eyes, and sincerely smiled."I knew you were extraordinary the moment I saw you downstairs!" Lina exclaimed, sitting across from her and beaming like a fangirl. "We've had celebrities coming in for interviews to become the film studio's ambassador these past few days. I never expec

Abigail took out a pen from her bag gently, lost in thought as she held it.Her assistant had to call her a couple of times to snap her out of it when they arrived at their destination.Jackie rushed out of the recording studio, opening the door himself and greeting Abigail with a bright smile. "This reality show has high ratings. It's the perfect opportunity for your comeback! Let's seize it, darling. Go to makeup and look at the script. We'll follow the director's instructions, okay?"I've talked to the team, asking them not to edit the scenes as they please."Abigail regained her resting bitch face and tossed her sunglasses, which conveniently landed in her assistant's hand."Let's go, darling!" Jackie was willing to go along with whatever Abigail wanted. "Don't worry. I've spoken to them. If they do anything wrong, we can sue them! But there's something...""What?""Can you smile, darling?" He gestured a smile with both hands, exaggerating it. "Despite being known as an inti

"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... Then, Morpheus' strong arms wrapped around her slender waist. She drowsily opened her eyes to find him sealing her lips with heated kisses.Over the year, his kissing skills had improved, and Persepho

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.

"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
