She prayed he wouldn’t fall in love with someone else and get married to the person before she met up with him. Her dreams would be crushed if that were to happen.

Although Shawn was several years older than her, Vivian didn’t care at all. It was even better that way. Older men were more caring and loving than agemates.

“I know, mummy. I’m trying my best.” Vivian blushed deeply as she responded to Barbara.

“Very good, my baby. Keep working harder. Before you know it, you’ll graduate from school and become a successful actress in Beats Entertainments. Like you’ve always wanted.”

“That way, it would be easier for you…” the older woman was grinning from ear to ear as she spoke.

Barbara wanted nothing but the best for her daughter. And she was going to see to it that Vivian got nothing but the best.

Back to the present day:

“Awwwwwn.” Vivian squeaked happily as she clicked on the notification she had just received.

Her dearly beloved had just posted an update and she so eagerly wanted to

    Considering that those girls wore the same uniform as Mia, they deduced that they attended the same school as the girl. Back to the present."Boss?" There was urgency in Lucas' voice as he glanced at his boss through the rearview mirror, waiting impatiently for the man to give an order. Shawn's eyes didn't leave the girl even for a second. She was crying and writhing in pain—no one cared about her. Passersby simply walked past her, paying dear ears to her cries. Some people even took pictures and recorded videos of her. After a few seconds, he spoke, "go." Immediately, Lucas unbuckled the seatbelt strapped around him and dashed out of the car. Without wasting time, he rushed to Mia's side at once and carried her from the ground. She was swung over his shoulder and he quickly picked up her school bag too. Swiftly, Lucas opened the backseat's door with one hand and carefully placed the girl beside his stiff boss. He stepped into the driver's seat and sped off immediately. He knew

    Shawn's steps halted as he approached the front door. Without turning around, "take care of them." he responded. Swiftly, he walked into the house.A wave of contentment rushed through Lucas as he heard that response. Since the big boss had given him the go ahead to take care of the issue, he'd do just that.As it was already getting really late, he handed the car key over to the bodyguard that was nearest to him, and took his leave. And like that, he called it a day.Besides, he had to go deal with the issue at hand as soon as possible.Inside, the maid watched in sheer horror as their master ascended the stairs, carrying the lady in his arms. Firstly, this was an unexpected turn of event. When they realized that the girl hadn't returned back from school, even after a very long while, they'd thought the boss had called it quits with her. Who would have thought that... Alas! Here she was, in his arms! Secondly, what on earth happened? How did it occur that they came home together?

    The ears of the maids perked up at this. They were eager to know what happened, but it seemed like the little madam had suffered memory loss."Young sir brought you back home." Madam Susan replied.Huh? The girl's eyebrows cocked upwards. Subconsciously, she glanced at her wrapped arm. Did that mean that the demi-god had something to do with it? A thin smile appeared on her face.Well, if that was the case, she was grateful. "Oh." She sincerely couldn't wait for him to come downstairs so that she'd thank him. The maids took their leave and the little madam began to eat, waiting impatiently for Shawn to come downstairs to have breakfast.But several minutes passed and the man never showed up. Even after she was done eating, he didn't appear--and hell, she took her time to eat to her full as it was the weekend and she didn't have to go to school.Huh? Why wasn't he coming? Her eyes darted across the room to the stairs landing. What could he possibly still be doing in his room? Was he b

    As the two maids that assisted Mia with the containers followed closely behind her, they wondered how she’d carry them by herself after she’d left Magnificent. She didn’t possibly expect them to follow her to wherever it was that she was going, did she?Or did she have someone waiting outside the residential area already?Shrugs.Even Madam Susan couldn’t help but have that same thought running through her mind as she silently followed behind the trio. But just then, Mia stopped in her tracks and turned around. As soon as her eyes landed on Madam Susan, she smiled.“Will it be possible for me to make use of one of the cars?” She asked keenly. The old woman’s eyes twitched while the maids’ mouths dropped open. As if taking their boss’s food wasn’t enough, she was even going to take the food to meet her boyfriend in their boss’ car?!!! Preposterous!Their gazes landed on Madam Susan’s face and they began to use their eyes to plead to her. ‘Just say no, Madam Susan…’‘It’s a bad idea!!

    It had been a while since Jasper’s message came in, the madam should be arriving at the corporation any time soon. About thirty minutes after driving out of the mansion, Jasper drove into the underground parking lot of Beats Corporation just as Lucas had instructed him. He was well known by the security to be one of the CEO’s men, so he was allowed in without any trouble.The underground parking lot was meant only for the CEO, and since the marriage between the madam and the big boss was being kept a secret, Lucas felt it was best to leave it that way. He was already waiting for them there when Jasper drove in and parked the car neatly, next to the black Maybach the CEO rode in in the morning. Swiftly, he opened the door to the backseat for their madam. One look at her wrapped arm and memories from the previous day came flooding through Lucas’ head. ‘Don’t worry madam, I’m already getting justice for you.’ “Thank you.” Mia who had absolutely no idea what was going on in the handso

    Grimacing, Lucas bit on his lower lip.Sighhhh! Today might really be the day that he’d die. Quite unfortunate of him.Slowly, he began to turn back around, taking only three steps away from the door. That way, should things go south, it would be very easy for him to slip out of the office. Several seconds passed by and the CEO still hadn't uttered a word. Though, his gaze was fixated on the containers on his desk.Lucas gulped inaudibly while Mia stood unmoving, on the same spot, fiddling with her hands.After what seemed like a long period of time, the CEO raised his eyelashes in Mia's direction."What is the meaning of this?"The girl's heart skipped a bit after hearing the man's question. She was short of words.Even she did not know the meaning of—like, what the hell was she even doing here in the first place?"Cat got your tongue?" Shawn asked irritably.Once he asked a question, he required and demanded an answer—not silence."I-erm... Hum... Fo-for you..." Mia shifted her wei

    He took brisk steps to the desk and reached his hands forward to carry the boxes. But..."Leave them here." The Big Boss' voice made his hands freeze midair.Lucas' eyes blinked dumbly. Were his ears in need of cleaning? But he had them cleaned yesterday. He glanced at his boss whose eyes didn't leave the document he was assessing.Lucas' head tilted to the side. He had to have his ears checked. He stretched out his hands further but before they could land on the lunchboxes, Shawn's head shot up and he gave him a cold hard glare.The PA retracted his hands immediately.A flood of confusion washed over him as he took two steps backwards and stood there in silence.The CEO's brows creased irritably when he saw this. What was the guy still waiting for?Lucas caught on and quickly found something to say. "Sir, you'll be attending a meeting in five minutes’ time."Well, that was true. The CEO would indeed be having a project update meeting with the top officials of the corporation.The CEO

    “Madam Susan…” The lady whined.The woman shot her a cold glare and she lowered her head instantly.Clara immediately swallowed whatever it was that she had to say. “Yes, Madam Susan.” Dejectedly, she shuffled her feet out of the kitchen to go inform her colleagues of the work they had to do. How stupid of her. She immediately regretted her actions. Indeed, what was she expecting the housekeeper to do? She was just a housekeeper and the girl was the Madam of the house. Clara was speechless. She should have just kept her moyth shut. Now, she had not only put herself in trouble, she even implicated the rest. Eish. Stupid.—The moment Mia walked into her room, she shut the door behind her and didn’t step out afterward.She remained inside until late at night. After laying motionless for several hours, hating herself for doing what she did, she finally pushed her weight off the bed and went to stand by the window. Her gaze looked down and a gasp escaped from her mouth. Below the

    Jennifer Mandez smiled, observing the girl's downcast expression as she joined her side. She gently took off her gloves and cradled Mia's cheeks in her palms."Be free with me, Mia. I'm your mother as well. I held that title before I resumed being Shawn's mother," she chuckled.She paused briefly before continuing, "I want you to forgive me for hurting you. I apologize sincerely. Now, I know better. You're a rare gem, and I wouldn't want Sunshine to be with anyone but you."Mia's eyes widened, "Does that mean we have your blessing to proceed…?"She nodded, grinning."Thank you, Mom!" The girl squeaked happily, and they embraced in a tight, warm hug.“Now, we have to start preparing for the wedding. The date’s just around the corner.”She nodded and they both returned back inside.Soon, the wedding day arrived. Despite the commonality of extravagant weddings among the wealthy, Shawn and Mia's celebration stood out for its simplicity. Only a select few family and friends were invited, a

    Shawn's lips tightened. "I believe you," he paused, "however, it's not you that I was referring to; it's the person behind you."‘Huh?’ Amanda's tears ceased instantly, and she swiftly turned to look behind her, as did everyone else.Anderson.Confusion swept through the room."You sending provoking pictures to Yvonne, making her rush back to the country... I was initially going to let you be. However, things changed after discovering you were the one who instigated the accident three years ago. And then you completely crossed the line by sending me those absurd threat messages," Shawn's icy voice confronted Anderson.Anderson stood, clearly taken aback. He hadn't anticipated Shawn's discovery to be so soon. He usually covered his tracks meticulously…“Why? After all these years working for Grandfather, why engage in such actions?” Shawn's brows furrowed deeply.Anderson chuckled. There was nothing to hide anymore, so why not come out clean? “Exactly.

    Upon arriving home, Shawn tenderly lifted his wife and placed her in their bedroom; she had fallen asleep during the ride. Delicately, he undressed her and tucked her into bed, taking a moment to remove her makeup with beauty wipes.As he disposed of the used wipes, Mia's phone started ringing on the nightstand. Without hesitation, he picked it up and noticed that the caller ID was unknown. He answered the call and brought the phone to his ear."Mia, I apologize. It's all my fault. Please, let's reconcile and go back to how we used to be."Upon hearing those words from the caller, Shawn's brows furrowed in irritation. Without uttering a word, he promptly ended the call. 'Dimwit.' As he placed the phone back on the stand, his thumb inadvertently pressed the photos app and opened it.He perched on the edge of the bed, smiling as he scrolled through the pictures on the girl’s phone. Soon, he stumbled upon an unexpected image—none other than a picture of himself, Shawn Mandez. In it, he

She taunted Martha, "Give this cocktail a try; after all, you seem to enjoy coveting what doesn't belong to you."Martha, a hint of fear in her voice, responded quickly, "Um, I don't know him."Veronica clicked her tongue in irritation, shaking her head at Martha's facade. How could she have been so blind to see the girl’s true color all these while?Everyone eyed the person who had just stepped in with confused expressions on their faces. The boy seemed to be around their age, however, he wasn’t familiar at all. He didn't bear the hallmarks of someone from their high school."Who's he?""No idea.""Recognize him?""Not at all."Veronica smiled, reassuring them, "Relax, everyone. You're about to meet him now."Martha's heart raced, fear escalating within her.Veronica turned to the newcomer, asking, "Tell us who you are and what brings you here."The guy's eyes shifted, locking onto Martha.

    "Vicky Lewis!" Gasps echoed through the room as all eyes fixated on the newcomer.Mia was also taken aback to see her. She hadn't crossed paths with Vicky since she was expelled from high school, making tonight's encounter unexpected. Instinctively, an uneasy feeling settled within her.Was she here to bully her?However, Mia wasn't alone in her discomfort. Another individual seemed to be grappling with an even stronger sense of unease in response to Vicky's presence.'Why is she here? How did she manage to appear?'

Without warning, he marched towards the mini lounge, retrieving a lighter from the center table.Returning to Mia, he set ablaze the documents held in his grasp before one could comprehend what was about to happen.Mia let out an immediate shriek, her eyes widening in sheer horror. "What are you—?""You are mistaken. We're eternally linked—bound forever," Shawn calmly muttered as ashes drifted to the floor.Mia blinked rapidly at him."With that resolved, let's head downstairs for dinner.

Please, come with me."Upon hearing this, Charlotte felt a mix of surprise and anticipation.The Davis family had consistently opposed her relationship with Damien, and the reasons remained a mystery to her.
