She sniffed in the cold, brewing air and let go of his arms.

“About last night, I brought you here; if that is what makes you uncomfortable," Calvin moved ahead in explaining what had happened last night, yet Paige looked at him, wondering what he meant by all those words he had just stuttered.
Her long, thick brown lashes caressed her cheekbones while she stared with no idea what he was saying. This was the first time she heard of it.

    ‘She was harmed last night. ’Camsy fell into deep thought at the mention of her being harmed last night. No wonder she appeared on his bed and had this painstaking and feeble appearance when he came out of the room.He gasped in astonishment and came back to reality.“What assignment do you want me to carry out?” His face shifted into a serious, dark mood, and he waited for his response. Although it took a little while for him to reply, it was worth it.“I want to talk to Dylan. He was the one who harmed her. Make it a surprise visit." Calvin grinned maliciously at the thought of Dylan's thick-skinned face succumbing to him.“Why would he want to... I had always known something was fishy in the Adams' house. But the young miss, won't she be angry that you went

    'Brother In Law?!'On hearing this, most of the workers took a step backward and then bowed their heads respectfully, including Milly.Although Milly was just a newbie in the Adams Corps and had worked for more than two years in the company, she knew about this man more than Alyssa did.Alyssa saw all their heads bowed and skeptically glanced at the man, whose smirk became more visible on his gloomy face. He held Paige's palms and moved further toward Alyssa.“Have you ever heard of Bruce Harvey, Miss Alyssa? Your father did not even bother to mention his late sister-in-law's twin brother to you; what a shame!” His lips twitched and he groaned in pleasure, seeing that Alyssa's attitude of arrogance had faded off and was replaced by a softer one.She obediently knelt and greeted him.

    “This is Bruce Harvey, my uncle ” She answered politely. Funning enough the both of them smirked at each other having their own personal thoughts about one another. Paige felt awkward standing in between both of them.“Get in the car ” He rolled his eyes, pulled open the driver's seat for her and when she had entered, he slammed the door. Calven coldly glanced at Bruce and headed straight to his own seat and closed the door.“That was rude you know. He really helped me ” Paige muttered watching from the thick dark glass Bruce's reaction to him being left alone without a handshake or a slight greeting.“Don't care! Mom said I should pick you up! How can you run off like a kid with no destination? Do you know how worried I was....I mean mom was!” He poured out his whole thoughts on her small feeble head. Hearing his narcissistic statement, Paige pursued her lips into a thin line and looked away.“Where are you taking me to?” Her brows arched in confusion as the car's

    “I see you've fallen in love with it,” Paige tilted her head to the owner of the word and gasped when she found how close he was to her. She could literally feel his breath on her lips and that, she cringed and stepped back fighting to hold off a blush from appearing on her face.“Yeah, it is beautiful, ” Paige admitted as she withdrew from his embrace and stood far away from him. Her hands tucked into her pocket as she frowned at the thought of her heart beat uncontrollably because of their closeness. Her minds were tolling with so much thoughts she hadn't noticed that Calven had grabbed her index finger and slipped the golden ruby ring into her fingers and was examining it.“Fits perfectly. Pack it up for me. Get the matching type, size six or seven,” Calven said mysteriously while the person who was attending to them rushed over with the shopping bag and a black fur case to bag the ring. When he was done, he handed it over to Calven and bowed

    She said while coming down from the chair, her hands reached to the secret compartment, unlocked it and kept the book. She smiled and walked straight to Paige.“This is not a threat! I am doing this for my father. He has been through a lot without him noticing that he had been tricked .”“I understand, so it is a deal?” Her head lowered down at her phone after its second beep. It was a message from Jennie. She scrolled through the messages that was sent by her.“I won't disturb you any longer. Go settle your own issues!” Candy excused herself from the room. The door clicked shut and Paige slumped onto the chair tiredly.

    Alyssa's eyes deepened angrily as her fist tightened on the hem of her dress. She bit her lips and raised her hands to land a slap on Paige until a hand grabbed her from behind – A firm, dangerous grip. Her lips dared not to move an inch closer as her face met with the owner of the hand. Alyssa gasped and retrieved her hand instantly. Her face turned paled and she became petrified. A rush of adrenaline kicked Alyssa back and she immediately apologized“ I am sorry...Mr. Gray!”She straightened herself whilst her angry gritting turned into a blooming smile. A smile which was able to devour the hearts of men including Dylan, however, he was lest concerned about her smile – they were all fake and deceiving besides! His eyes glanced towards Paige and he nodded lightly. He let go off Alyssa's hands and straightened his suit up.“I suggest it is best known that having such arrogant attitude won't be appreciable when working with me. Miss Alyssa, how

    “The meeting was cancelled. Your parents fixed a date for you and Master Brian at the house. It would be terrible for you to decline it. He did not seem happy the last time you rejected him,”“.....” ..........In the Main Mansion of the Harris. The car arrived thirty minutes before the gate was closed. Eddey got off the car, glanced at the several cars parked in her father's compound and heaved an annoyed sigh. This man really did not know when to stop courting her. “Miss Harris! Here! come quick!” Brian's mother wrapped her hands lovingly around Eddey's back and gave it a little pat. She took Eddey into the house to find Brian waiting at the door step. Eddey let out a faint smile and shook his hands. “My son has been dreaming about you,” His mother chuckled placing her palms into Brian's own while she left them alone. Eddey sheepishly collected her arms and awkwardly laughed out loud.“You s

    Calven rebuked her further charges against him. He closed his eyes and settled for sleep. However, it was harder than it thought. His mind kept recollecting what the old man had said. Some months ago, he met with the old man and explained what he had been feeling since his encounter with Paige. The symbol on her arms and actually what it meant. It wasn't a coincidence that the moon goddess and her shared the same twelve symbols, which gave it only one meaning, she was the moon goddess. If her rebirth story actually coincided with when he had that accident, then it only gave answers to his question. Calven scanned Paige's body as she wrapped herself in towel and removed her cloth. Her body was not snow white like Eddey's own neither was she taller and elegant like her. She was nothing compared to Eddey's beauty and the only main reason men went after her and not Eddey was because of personality issues. Asides that, Eddey was far more better

It had sought rumple on it which she dusted off. Her eyes were red, red from remembering how wicked this people were to her. She was wicked? Was she truly the one wicked in his eyes? Had he never seen her as the good one and Alyssa the bad one? Tears rolled from her eyes as her palms raised up and landed him a slap on his face. Pak!The violent loud sound came again. Everyone's attention was drawn to them and none was left out. The entire crew wanted to know what was going on. Everyone ignoring Alyssa's beg. They examined the both of them with Dylan's palms on his red cheeks and Paige tears flowing from her eyes. They both guessed that things were not well among these two, and definitely it wasn't.

    “But then again, why would I want such a 'non-beneficial' role when I could have been the movie director? Did Alyssa not tell you the news? I am the movie director!”“....” Silence dawned upon Belinda and her heavy breathing was the only sound heard through the speaker. Paige smirked knowing what Belinda was perhaps meant be thinking of and immediately her next reply confirmed it.“You cannot be too ruthless on Alyssa! Remember you used to dote on her before!” A sneering reply came again causing Paige to chuckle softly. Belinda couldn't see the atom of rage and hatred on Paige's face, however the same was not said for Alyssa. The painstaking stare at the vicious woman in front of her made Alyssa shrivel in fear. This was not the Paige she had grown up to know and scheme against. Paige was much more loveable than this current one who gave her discomfort at sight.“Mother, be rest assured, Alyssa is in great care,” Her remark hung up the call an
