The cosmetic doctor looked at Carla for a moment and smiled. "No need! There's a type of injection I offer here. Take the package, and you'll achieve a small face effortlessly.""Really?" Carla asked.The doctor chuckled. "If you didn't believe me, you wouldn't have come all the way from Centrolis to my clinic, right?"Carla stuck out her tongue and secretly pressed the switch of the recording pen in her pocket."It's your first time here, miss. It makes sense that you're worried." The doctor chuckled. "Although my clinic is small, many celebrities come here! Eight out of ten A-list celebrities came for plastic surgery!""Yeah, someone recommended me." Carla smiled. "I heard you weren't popular before. Things changed after you served the Thompsons' daughter?"The doctor squinted. "What are you trying to ask, miss?""I'm just making conversation! I'm also curious about what she did to her face. Do the same for me. Maybe I'll have her life after that—getting a wealthy dad, becomin

In the VIP room of the Splendor Hotel, Tobias and Gia finally met the CEO, Aurelia, who was adorned in a luxurious dress and gold accessories. Aurelia's sophisticated and beautiful face was still visible, even with her sunglasses on.Tobias couldn't help but admire her from a distance. As a regular man, he knew he could never get close to such a stunning woman, especially with her black-suited bodyguards surrounding her.A middle-aged man wearing sunglasses was beside her. He seemed familiar to Tobias.Neil spoke firmly, crossing his arms. "Mr. Chambers, is there something on my face? You seem to be looking at me.""Oh, no, no!" Tobias quickly put on a fawning smile. "I was just thinking... You look remarkably familiar. Have we met before? Oh yes, you resemble a famous actor!""Really?" Neil deepened his voice with a clear tone. "Do you think I might be even taller and more good-looking than that actor?""Absolutely! You are," Tobias quickly agreed.Aurelia cleared her throat an

Tobias was at a loss for words."You don't need to be troubled, Mr. Chambers," Neil said with a smile. "There are many illegal businesses in Southern Aciatic that are thriving! So, as long as it's a profitable venture, it's all good!""Absolutely!" Tobias became enthusiastic. "Didn't I mention that the land belongs to the Thompson Group? They wanted to build a film studio, but I personally believe it's better suited for a residential area. It will definitely be valuable in the future!""So, they disagreed with your proposal?""Sigh… That foolish Nicholas spoils his wife when he's not out fighting. He knows nothing about running a business!"Tobias' tone was filled with disdain, and Neil felt angered as he listened. "So, Mr. Chambers, did you take it for yourself then?""Not... exactly." Tobias felt his lips dry. "Bro, the film studio occupies a large piece of land. It's not like anyone would notice if I used some of it for houses. Does that really count as stealing?"Besides, it

Tobias stood frozen in terror, realizing the situation was dire.Gia attempted to escape, but the bodyguards, Aurelia, and Neil, surrounded her before she could make a move."It's all a misunderstanding!" Tobias stammered, his mouth twitching nervously. "There must be a misunderstanding!""This CEO is a legitimate businesswoman from Southeast Aciatic, and we're doing legitimate business. We—"Nicholas' cold voice cut him off. "Tobias Chambers, save your explanations for the judge."Tobias's eyes widened, and his legs felt weak, as if all his blood had frozen.Nicholas approached, exuding an intimidating aura despite nearing his 50s. The years seemed to have deepened his dominance and presence. His expression remained calm, and he coldly smirked at Tobias."Mr. Thompson—""I didn't realize I only know how to fight, kill, and be completely clueless about management and business," Nicholas said, his tone biting."No!""Tobias, you dare to steal my land right under my nose!"

"You mean Jacob?" Zuko sneered. "Gia, you worry too much. Do you really believe that a prominent lawyer like him would be so foolish as to fall for your scheme so easily?"Gia's mind exploded. Scenes flashed through her mind—Jacob's coldness and contempt during their time together. Even when they went out for a meal, he would send her a Venmo request to split the bill with her. Yet, he seemed more enthusiastic toward her computer.After being stunned for a while, tears fell from Gia's eyes, and a mad laugh escaped her lips."Lina!" She turned to look at Lina, speaking recklessly. "Do you really not care about our past friendship anymore? Have the police take me away today, and I'll post about you online tomorrow! I'll let the whole world know that you framed an old friend and are a heartless, cold-blooded monster!""Gia, what you've done has already violated the law! Don't you understand?" She almost amused Lina."It's not just me who violated the law, but also your adoptive mothe

Linda glanced at Gia and said coldly, "Ms. Chapman, do you really think that using sweet words and sowing discord can fool everyone? You're still young. Use your time in prison to reform yourself. There may still be opportunities in your life!""I think not." Suddenly, a crisp voice came from outside the door.Lina's eyes lit up.Abigail had told her that she would appear on the day of "harvest", and now she was there. She still wore her big sunglasses that covered half of her face and walked with an air of confidence. There was, however, another person behind her.That person looked panicked with trembling legs. As soon as she entered, she knelt in front of everyone.Linda frowned. "Who is she?"Abigail walked over to explain unhurriedly, "Mr. and Mrs. Thompson, this is Tina Yoe, a cosmetic doctor known in the entertainment industry, but she has done something even more notorious!"Gia looked at Tina, and both of them turned pale at the sight of each other.Lina stepped forwar

Zuko blurted out without thinking, "They'll definitely agree!"Then, he met Zephyr's cryptic look and corrected himself. "Uh... They'll probably agree.""Anyway, I've prepared two sets of wedding gifts," Cordelia said, looking at her son. "One for you and one for Toph. If by then you still can't marry my two daughters-in-law..."Zuko raised an eyebrow with a puzzled look.Cordelia smiled. "Then you two don't have to come back either!"Zuko was rendered speechless.Zephyr hugged Cordelia by the waist with a hearty laugh. Not having these two brats come back was just fine, as they wouldn't interrupt his alone time with his wife.Lina came out of the room, and her face lit up with a delighted smile when she saw the three of them."Uncle Zephyr, Aunt Cordelia! You're here!""Ahem!" Zuko hurriedly said, "I'm here too!"Lina took his hand in hers, smiling."My parents came to see Aunt Melissa and asked about the progress of her treatment.""Thanks for your concern, Uncle Zephyr a

Although everything around him was familiar—the scenery, home furnishings, and even the service staff—Zuko still sat on the sofa with restraint. He kept his back straight and his eyes focused, occupying only 1/3 of the sofa. There was not even a single crease on his suit or tie.He had even hired three stylists in advance to perfect his image for today. When the handsome Hamerton heir appeared in the Thompsons' living room, Linda couldn't stop smiling, while Nicholas' expression was rather intriguing.His smile seemed more like a smirk, his gaze alternating between hostile and friendly. It was a complicated expression as if his daughter would be abducted, but the abductor was someone he had watched grow up. The struggle was clear on his face.Zuko and Nicholas sat in the living room like that for 20 minutes. Neither of them moved nor said a word. Even the service staff didn't dare to approach.Lina quietly asked Linda, "What's wrong with dad?""I don't know." Linda furrowed her br

"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. 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
