"What?" Jemima spun around and shot Wiley a confused look. "He said that?"

Wiley nodded. "Yes, he did."

"Tssk..." Jemima scoffed. A bimbo bitch, he had called her. "And you said you never saw his face?"

"Yes, Ma'am," Wiley swallowed at the thought of how scary the man in the dark was. He couldn't even take his phone as he had stormed out immediately after releasing him.

Jemima approached him. "Not even one tiny detail?" She could guess randomly since she was well acquainted with many high-ranking men in the entertainment world.

"He was twice or four times my height... Well, that might be too much, but he was really huge and terrifying."

"And?"

"He is scary. His voice was deep and cold. He is terrify—"

"I get the part that you were scared of him; you just don't have to repeat it," Jemima cut in. She seemed to think for a while. "Definitely a powerful man since his aura got you shivering like a hen in winter."

"Sorry, Ma'am."

The viewership for the show had doubled. Wow! Tatiana really hit the spotlight.Ciara smiled warmly and began, "Tatiana, congratulations on the success of your latest movie. How does it feel to be receiving so much attention and spotlight?"Tatiana replied calmly, "It's overwhelming, to be honest. I'm still getting used to it. But I'm grateful for the opportunity to share my passion with so many people."Ciara nodded thoughtfully. "That's wonderful. Now, I know our audience is eager to know more about you. Can you tell us a bit about your background and how you got started in acting?"Tatiana anticipated this question and had prepared for it."Acting has been my dream ever since I turned five. My mother loved it—she was my role model, the person who kept motivating me. The same goes for my sisters. I entered t

    Jemima felt Tatiana's cold heel lift off her face and heard the sound of Tatiana's footsteps fading as she left.Jemima stood, her face contorted with anger. She went to the bathroom to check her face and noticed a small cut on her cheek.That bitch! She cursed inwardly.'Just wait until I deal with you,' she thought, clenching her jaw.__Jaxon’s eyes fluttered open when he heard his doorbell. He had fallen asleep on the couch.Sweeping his messy black hair back, he went to open the door and was shocked to see the person standing there.Didn't she say she wouldn’t be able to come? And now she was at his doorstep, staring at him."Jojo?" He raised an eyebrow.Her eyes scanned him. "You seem okay," she mumbled.Right, he had told her he was sick. Jaxon immediately squeezed his face, placing one hand on his chest."No, I'm not," Jaxon mumbled. He was an actor, so this was easy for him."Let me take you to the hospital, then," Jolene suggested."I've already been. I've gotten drugs and u

    "The Crystal company sent an invitation last night," Jolene informed Tatiana as she fed Dylan on her lap."It's a lion's den. Daniel, the CEO of Crystal, is in a relationship with Jemima. I got the information from my husband," Tatiana said."What! Isn't that man married with three children?" Jolene's eyes almost popped out. "I can't believe she talked about short-term gains when she's obviously sleeping with a married man. How disgusting!""Jojo," Tatiana signaled, reminding her that Dylan was with them.Jolene sighed. "What company are you going to sign with? You really need it.""The Kings company."Hearing Tatiana’s response, Jolene choked on her saliva and began to cough. She quickly grabbed the water and drank from it."Such a drama queen. Weren't you the one who said I was good enough?"Jolene's cheeks burned red. "No, I just wasn’t expecting it. You deserve it."It was getting late, and Jolene needed to be home because of her father. He had been feeling sick that morning."I n

    Jolene remained quiet as Jaxon drove her home. She slowly looked at the man who had saved her back there, and her heart skipped a beat.His jaw was still clenched, untamed anger emanating from him as he focused on the road."Does your hand hurt?" he asked, his voice harsher than usual.Jolene looked down at her slightly red palm. She had hit Jemima eleven times. Jemima's face was swollen and red, with blood on her lips and nose. The sight was satisfying."It stings a little, but it's worth it," she replied. Jaxon gave her a brief look before returning his gaze to the road. "Thank you for saving me back there.""I don't like being thanked with words, considering the fact that you’ve attacked me twice," Jaxon responded, and Jolene blinked in confusion."Attacked you?""Hmm. First, you almost hit my car and yelled at me. Then, you pepper-sprayed my face."Jolene almost choked on her saliva, her eyes widening like the moon. Her face turned red.The masked man she had encountered twice was

She hardly saw him these days because of his busy schedule, and now here he was, chatting and smiling with an artist."Ma'am, we..." Indigo's assistant's voice trailed off as Indigo approached Hudson."Dee," Hudson smiled when he spotted her."Let's talk," Indigo said calmly before turning to leave.Hudson followed her to a quiet place."Uhm... I..." Indigo struggled to find the right words. "I've missed you," she confessed.Hudson stared at her for a long while before responding. "I missed you too."She bit down on her lip and nodded. "I... Gosh, I don't know how to say this, but may I ask... How do you see me?"Hudson stepped forward. "Someone I want."Indigo's heart raced as he approached her."What about you? How do you see me?" he asked, his sweet cologne filling the air.Indigo took a deep breath before reaching out to his shirt. She pulled him close and claimed his lips. Her heart almost explod

    Jemima dashed into her apartment, her breath ragged and her face covered in sweat. She grabbed the water from her desk and downed it in one gulp.Once she calmed down, she sat on her bed, recalling what had happened to her.The hounds.They had scared the hell out of her. After she had agreed to Tatiana's request, someone in the dark whistled, and the hounds left her. Jemima had tried to find the person, but he was gone along with the hounds.Jemima clenched her jaw. Apologize? Her ass. She would never apologize to a mere assistant!She took her phone and called Daniel."Hey, why are you crying?" Daniel asked on the other end, his voice filled with concern.Jemima explained everything to him."She did all that?""Yes. I was so scared I thought I was going to die.

    "Don’t let her out of your sight," Jemima ordered."Yes, ma’am," the guard replied.

The doctor had said she would be waking up soon, but it had already been a month. She slowly turned to leave but halted when she heard a soft moan.With wide eyes, her head snapped back to the woman.The woman’s eyelids fluttered and slowly opened.

    [Four years later]Issabella spun around to look at the women in the room. "How do I look?" Nervousness was evident in her voice. She was wearing a professional outfit, her hair tied into a bun, with light makeup accentuating her beauty."Fantastic!" Tatiana responded. "You're really made for this.""President Issabella, right on track!" Jolene exclaimed, a ring glittering on her finger. She had married Jaxon last year. In her arms was little Elsa, dressed in a blue fluffy dress."Gosh, I feel nervous," Issabella exhaled, fanning herself several times."You're fine," Tatiana approached and adjusted her shirt.Jolene added, "Just be yourself.""Are you okay with this? I mean, you've been handling it for a year now..." Issabella asked Tatiana."With you by my side. You're way more capable than you think. Besides, handling it with my career is stressful," Tatiana said."Especially when Tatie won the Best Actress Award three times in a row," Jolene added."Drama queen," Tatiana mumbled."

    Cassius's face paled, mirroring the expressions of the others. Jaxon choked on his drink before bursting into laughter. The others joined in, and the room erupted with laughter.After they finished eating, they all headed to the park. Cassius decided to buy the entire place for his son and wife.Jaxon stood at a distance, watching Tatiana, Cassius, and Dylan riding the carousel. Aurora stood beside him, also watching."A wonderful sight, isn't it?" she sighed. "For a fleeting moment, I thought I'd never see this. Silly me."Jaxon put his arm around her shoulder. "You'll get to see this every day." He then recalled what Cassius had said about Silence and Aurora not wanting to meet each other.He knew it was for the best, but his heart ached knowing Aurora never experienced true love... or maybe she did.She cared for her family more than anything. The smile on her face and the happiness glittering in her eyes were priceless."Aren't you going to ride with them?" Jaxon asked Jolene, who

    Meanwhile, Rafael glanced at the man seated beside him with his eyes closed. He was now so used to his cold aura. "You're not going to see her? I mean, Mr. King's mother?" he asked. "I'm not going to meet her." "Why not?" Rafael asked, curious. "Can you keep your mouth shut? I'm trying to meditate here." "Says the man who used me. I'm still mad at you, you know... But weirdly, I'm glad you found me," Rafael mumbled. "So what are you going to do with me?" "Your choice. Either you stay and get the hell out of my way, or you come with me and become like me," Silence said curtly, standing to leave. He had gone far when Rafael ran to walk beside him. "You called me your apprentice. I'm going to stay that way. My place is with you," Rafael responded, and the man shot him a glare. "You wanna die? 'Cause I'm damn sure you won't last a week." Rafael laughed confidently. "Try me." Silence's lips curled up. "Fine then," he muttered, continuing to walk with Rafael beside him. "What are

    Cassius gazed down at Silence, his father, his emotions in turmoil as he recalled how he had stormed into Silence's room, eyes blazing."You're helping me," he said, and Silence turned to give him a questioning look. "Helping? And what makes you think that?""Rafael told me everything. How you made him turn against his family, causing their death. You hate the Wallingtons," Cassius said, and Silence simply returned his gaze to the sky he was looking at."If you want me to hate, then just say so instead of acting like a fucking asshole."Silence shut his eyes and sighed. "You're one stubborn son of a bitch. I'll be done and gone soon. So if you're going to throw a tantrum, do it later.""Why didn't you ever show up?" Cassius persisted. He wanted to get the answer out of this man at all costs. At least he knew something-Silence wasn't an enemy."I clearly recall telling you not to bother knowing who I am.""Well, sorry, Dad... I'm going to trouble you until you spill the shit," Cassius

    Horror flashed across their faces as they exchanged glances."Is this a joke?" The middle-aged man on the right slammed his hand on the desk."Do I look like a comedian?" Tatiana asked in a calm tone, her aura composed. She looked up at the guard standing behind her."Do I?" she asked him."No, ma'am," he responded."I didn't think so, so no, it's not a joke... Oh," she gasped slightly. "Maybe because I didn't explain it well." Her face suddenly turned cold, and the shareholders wondered if she was the same calm woman they had seen seconds ago.She leaned down, resting her elbows on the desk, her chin on her knuckles. "This company has been in the hands of trash-people who use innocent lives for their selfish interests. I'm here to take out that trash, starting with you."Another man stood up and roared. "You wench! Do you even realize what you're saying?! This company would collapse without us. We are the backbone of this place!""Oh really? Let's test that, shall we? I'll prove to y

    "Uncle Conrad," Dylan called as he accompanied Butler Conrad in the kitchen."Yes, Dylan," Conrad answered, his voice calm."Don't you think it's wrong not to tell my parents about good Grandpa? My mother will be so mad at me once she finds out," the boy said, his tiny legs swinging as he sat on the stool."They'll find out about him soon. You don't want to spoil the surprise, do you?" Butler Conrad asked, and Dylan sighed."I don't know. Strange things are happening lately. Mom, Dad, Grandma, and everyone are so busy. I haven't seen Aunt Jojo since she left that night. A bad grandpa plans to hurt my parents, and my birthday is coming up. School's started, and I haven't gone yet." Dylan paused to catch his breath."I just hope they're okay and everything gets back to normal.""Stop worrying, kiddo," Butler Conrad said softly, glancing over his shoulder. "You'll see them soon enough.""Alright, if you say so," Dylan nodded.___'If that motherfucker turns out to be an enemy, we'll all

    Hudson advanced towards Tristan. "I've been waiting for this my whole life," he said, shoving the poison into Tristan's neck. Tristan gasped as the guards released him to the floor. Tatiana watched as Tristan struggled for his life, screaming in terror, wishing the pain would end soon. She recalled how the agony had driven her to madness... but the poison used on Tristan was even more painful than what had been inflicted on her. "Make it stop!!! Arghhh!!!" Tristan's screams echoed through the room, the veins in his face and neck bulging, his eyes changing color as blood spilled from his mouth. His hand reached out, trying to grasp Tatiana's dress, begging for the antidote. "Please... Argh!!!" For the pain he had caused her loved ones, especially Issabella, who had once seen him as a father figure. For the trauma he had inflicted on so many. Tristan deserved every ounce of the pain ravaging him at this moment. He deserved ten times more. Several minutes passed, and Tristan's movem

    Cassius gritted his teeth. "I'm going to destroy Maximus and his empire... And if you get in my way, I'll destroy you... Until my last breath."As the men spoke, Rafael remained silent. Mr. King was also terrifying, his aura menacing. No wonder he's Silence's son.If you look closely, they share a striking resemblance.Silence sighed. "Chatting with my grandson was way more fun than chatting with you."Grandson? Wait! Dylan?!"When did you speak to my son?" Cassius asked, a deadly warning lacing his voice."Let's just put it this way..." Silence paused and chuckled. "Your butler, Conrad. He works for me."Cassius's eyes widened.-[SPAIN]"¿Estás seguro? (Are you sure?) You've heard what the man has done and seen the traces, and yet you're going to face him? Val, my world, I...

    "I killed Leonard... I really killed my brother without a second thought... I pulled the trigger... He wasn't going to kill me, but I did it anyway... Or maybe he was going to kill me... I'm a murderer... I'm a fucking murderer who killed his own brother in cold blood... I killed someone---"Rafael panicked, running his hands through his hair, pulling at it. He was losing his mind over Leonard's death-because of him. The scene of pulling the trigger, Leonard falling with blood spilling from his chest, Leonard whispering that he didn't want to die, and taking his last breath-played on repeat in his head."I killed him... I'm a fucking murderer," he whispered again, fidgeting in his seat and pulling his hair harder. "I fucking killed him! I killed him!" he yelled, standing up and punching the wall."I killed him!" he screamed again, punching the wall over and over until his fists started to bleed, staining the floor.The door opened, and he abruptly stopped."What the heck are you doing
