When Lena turned her head to look, she spotted a man approaching with a mischievous smirk."Mr. Chriss?"He grinned. "Sorry, I accidentally overheard your conversation with Madam Fleur... Or should I say your future mother-in-law?""Nah," she flatly replied, discreetly slipping the large diamond ring into her pocket."It's not often you see such a huge diamond ring!" He approached. "Look at the color and style. She must have spent a fortune!""I told you it's not happening! Are you done?"Elijah smiled even wider upon seeing her blush. He had been discussing business with a client and had witnessed the mother-and-daughter-in-law drama after the meeting.Lena pouted and attempted to leave, but Elijah stopped her. "Don't leave just yet! I need to talk to you.""What's up?"He didn't beat around the bush. "I'm leaving the Thompson Group to start my own business. I need an assistant. Will you help me?""Me?" Lena was taken aback, thinking he was joking.However, his serious deme

Chris felt flattered, unsure of how to respond.Lena smiled and lightly kissed his cheek. Her soft lips against his skin ignited a sudden rush of warmth within him, making his heart race.Lately, he had an overwhelming sense of possessing her entirely. He recalled Zuko's words about "taking her out with a single shot".Now, he understood the sentiment. The gun was loaded, but he struggled to restrain himself from acting on his desires.Lena noticed his unease. "Hey, what's wrong?""What?" Chris looked into her crystal-clear eyes, his forehead glistening with sweat, and his kissed cheek flushed.He couldn't tear his gaze away from her—his eyes were fixated solely on her. His breath quickened, and he quietly moved farther away from her to avoid embarrassing himself."Are you feeling okay, Chris?" Lena asked, concerned."Umm..." He admitted that a certain part of his body wasn't feeling too well."Can I help?" Lena offered.He mustered a smile, secretly wishing she could "help"

If Elijah didn't like Lena, why did he enjoy their time together so much? It felt like being with family—relaxed, comfortable, and himself.Elijah loosened his tie and flipped through the document. He then looked at Lena and smiled. "The project is almost finished.""Really?" Lena was surprised. "That's quick!""Well, we didn't have to build schools from scratch. We purchased a couple of private ones with excellent facilities, so the project wrapped up swiftly," Elijah explained. Lena smiled, feeling the sunlight outside shining even brighter."Thanks to this charity project, my father-in-law's polling numbers have skyrocketed," he added. "He's a major contender in the Centrolis mayoral campaign. Unless something unexpected occurs, he's set to win.""That's great," Lena's eyes sparkled. "Mr. Chriss, are you going to keep your promise now?"Elijah squinted and nodded with a smile.He had convinced her to bring the kids from the mountains. The schools would handle their food and

Lena smiled, then turned and walked away.-In the next few days, she packed not only her own bags but also Chris'. She couldn't resist his persistent request to join her on the trip.Chris was excited but ensured not to show it too much.'This trip means a lot. Alone with Lena, who knows what might happen?' he thought and smiled.In Zuko's words, he went from being slow-witted to suddenly brilliant!Chris whistled and arrived at Lena's apartment early in the morning. He diligently cleaned everything inside and out.It was a weekend, and they didn't have much luggage. After packing, they went to say goodbye to Zuko and Lina.-They heard a familiar voice when they entered Zuko's home.Chris was momentarily stunned when he saw Fleur holding little Persephone and laughing uncontrollably."Ah, you two are here? Come see her, she's so adorable... Cute!"Lina invited them to sit with a smile. "Aunt Fleur, you're too kind. You gave a big gift when Sephy was born, and now you're g

A hint of disappointment flashed across Lena's eyes.Lina held her hand.Lena did not want to worry her, so she forced a smile and said, "She... is probably Mrs. Hamerton's prospective daughter-in-law, right? She seems to fit the bill. Beautiful, from a good family, and they grew up together, so they know each other well.""What nonsense are you talking about!?" Lina frowned. "Marriage is your and Chris' business. What does it have to do with Bitchy Bianca?""Bitchy Bianca?""Uh..." Lina stuck out her tongue, laughing in embarrassment.Just as Lena fiercely protected Lina, the latter was equally protective of Lena. Seeing someone threatening Lena's position, she naturally did not like that person, regardless of whether they were Chris' childhood friend or had connections!"Anyway, I won't allow anyone to harm you!" Lina squeezed Lena's hand firmly. "Including Chris!""Lina...""Let's watch and see for now." Lina chuckled. "If Bitchy Bianca behaves herself, that's fine. But if

Bianca outwardly complied, but a hint of discontent lingered in her eyes. Throughout the meal, her gaze kept drifting toward Chris. When Fleur spoke, Bianca would actively join in, steering the conversation toward their shared childhood memories.In their youth, she frequented Fleur's home, adoring the swing in her backyard and sharing a bed with Chris.Lena listened quietly, her calm facade masking the fact the delicious food lacked flavor to her."Oh, Chris…" Bianca gazed at him innocently. "Could you take me to the mountains? I'm seeking inspiration for a photo series featuring the mountains."Chris' eyes darkened, and he remained silent, subtly holding Lena's hand under the table.Bianca pouted. "Why aren't you responding?""Aren't you hungry?" Fleur tapped the table gently. "Let's eat.""Aunt Fleur, I—""I don't think you should join them," Fleur gracefully adjusted her hair. "They have important matters to attend to. What would you gain by tagging along?""Aunt Fleur!" B

Lena and Chris exchanged smiles, enjoying their peaceful time together."Well, how about this?" Chris said, "We take the train there, then the private plane can pick us up, and we can bring the kids along, too. That way, they won't have to be tired.""Sounds good!"While discussing their plans, Chris booked train tickets for himself and Lena. They opted for regular coach seats, wanting to enjoy the trip as a typical couple without any prior planning.When the day arrived, they reached the train station with the sun shining brightly. However, their attention was suddenly captured by a voice from the bustling crowd calling out, "Chris!"Lena froze as she was about to step onto the train. Chris was similarly surprised.Bianca approached them with bags of luggage, her smile radiating warmth."Chris, what a surprise! Are you two also taking this train?""Yes..." Chris looked puzzled. "How did you know...""I mentioned I wanted to explore the mountainous area for inspiration!"Lena

Lena blushed and smiled as she followed Chris into the business class section.Meanwhile, Bianca remained in her spot. Before she could even utter "Chris", the train attendant politely intercepted her. "Miss, these two seats are yours now. Please have a seat!""You..." Bianca blankly glared at her.The train attendant bowed and asked with a smile, "Is there anything else I can assist you with?"Bianca rolled her eyes repeatedly in frustration but ultimately sat down and turned to look out of the window.-This was Lena's first time in a business class section. She had never known that train carriages could be this spacious. Business class seats not only allowed her to sit comfortably, but she could also recline."How is it?" Chris asked with a smile.It was not that Lena did not mind Bianca's presence. Her jealousy dissipated once she looked at Chris' face. Despite that, she still teased him with Bianca's tone. "Not bad at all, Chris!"Chris was rendered speechless and felt be

"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
