“First and foremost, you should be aware that the two most powerful families in Denmark are embroiled in a bitter feud. They are great rivals. The Spencers are leading the power, energy, winery, oil, and other industries. And the Villareals, who are at the forefront of technology and aircraft.” Sybil even used his fingers to convey the story, as though he was taking it very seriously.
I couldn't respond because I was still chewing on the bacon, so I just nodded.
There was plenty of food, but only Sybil and I sat down to eat.
There was a long table where we ate dinner with Liam’s parents last night. On one side, there is an expansive table with a wide selection of dishes. Even though it was extremely early, I felt as if I had eaten at its expensive buffet.
“You already recognize Eureka because you saw her at the wedding, didn't you?”
I nodded once

Crystal POV "Fix yourself," I took another look at what I am wearing. "But, I'm already dressed nicely?" I boasted, returning my gaze to my white pantsuit. It embraces my entire body so it enhances my body's curves. This outfit does not belong to me though; it was just delivered to our room. And it even includes an extravagant gold necklace and earrings, which I'm supposed to wear as well. “I'm talking about your behavior. If possible, refrain from speaking when you don't have to.'' I was unable to respond when he stepped out of the car. I want to talk to him about what happened last night... but I am afraid of how he will react. I simply followed behind Liam when he walked into the building, as he had ordered. I was a little terrified when we were surrounded by four armed men in suits, until I realized Liam was wealthy and, of course, has bodyguards. Employees were simultaneously bowing when Liam passed

Unknown Number: [Please come down for a minute; I will wait here till my legs are broken as long as you don’t show up.] “Pfft.” His SMS message made me chuckle. Okay, it might be better to go down first and see him; after all, it might take some time for them to talk to that Sam in the office, and if I stay there, I probably be a nuisance. Liam doesn’t even want me to say anything. So what else can I do? My feet began strolling towards the elevator to get down for a moment. I put up my phone and saved the unknown number and named it ‘mushroom’ on my contacts. What was the name of that guy again? I’ll just call him a mushroom for now. After all, he was always random and appeared at the most inconvenient times. “Crystal!” he exclaims with great joy when he sees me. So this is how it feels when someone is genuinely happy whenever they see you. This wa

“HELP!! OH MY GOD!! I AM GETTING ROBBED!!” I screamed at the top of my lungs, begging for help. I yank my hand away from his firm grip, but he refuses to let go. “HELP! HE’S A THIEF!!” I begged even more loudly. My gaze was drawn to Liam as he exited the building. “LIAM, HELP!!!” I understand we’re in a tough state right now, but this isn’t the time to dwell on grudges. When Liam heard my shrieks for help, he dashed toward us, leaving me to strive for my freedom. “Blade! Crystal! What the hell is going on here?’’ He yelled at us and pulled Blade into his chest to get his hand out of my arm. “What are you doing!” He glared at Blade, but he didn’t answer and just bent down in front of Liam. Is he going to deny what he did? “HE’S TRYING TO TAKE MY WATCH!” I screeched. “Sir, I noticed something suspicious on Ms. Crystal’s wristwatch.” He responded as his gaze was fixed on the floor, not raisin

“Mr. and Mrs. Spencer, we’re here.” I brushed away my tears as I heard Blade speak. “Where are we?’’ I peered out the window to see where we had come to a halt. Suddenly, the reporters invaded the car we are riding in. Liam began to get out, but I remained perplexed and unsure of what to do. They’ve set up their deluge cameras once more. And then there are the flashes, which completely blind me in a matter of seconds. I’m terrified to be shown in public again... I’m tired enough of those hurtful comments. I can feel Blade staring at me from the mirror. “Why did we stop here? And why are the reporters came to see us? ” “Happy Birthday.” He gave me a meaningful grin. I was so flabbergasted that I couldn’t respond to him. Also, because the road we had driven earlier seemed familiar, I assumed we were going home to Liam’s house. “Get out of there and wipe your tears away. Do not show a

“What are you doing..?” I struggled to avoid leaning against the wall, but it was useless. Blade simply pushed me back. “Ouch!” I screamed, my back slamming against the wall so hard that it seemed like I’d shattered a bone. I pushed him with both hands with all my strength, even though I knew it wouldn’t move his muscular body. “What do you want!?” “I will help you.” “What?” “I overheard your entire conversation earlier. I’ll help you to be like by Liam.” I repeatedly blinked my eyes and even poked my ear with my finger since it looked like what I was hearing was vague. “What do you mean..?” “Just trust me.” “But, Blade, why would you help me? What will you get in return?” One of the things I’ve learned throughout my life is that everything has a replacement. People who become suddenly kind for no apparent reason should be suspected, as they are the most likely enem

“Crystal, I thought you need Liam to like you?” “Yeah?” “Well, if you do that, he won’t appreciate you.” “What do you mean? Liam loves Pororo and he- ‘’ I covered my mouth as soon as Liam’s most protected secret spilled out. ‘’I know, but if you continue to pay attention to him, he will never be interested in you.’’ He withdrew his gaze from me and swung a bit to face the other way. My brain couldn’t seem to absorb what he wanted to convey. I was going to say something else when Blade interrupted me. “Have you eaten?” He wasn’t looking at me, and his gaze was just a little too far away. Following his eyes, I discovered he was staring directly at a Shawarma food stall. “If you don’t quit beaming, it’ll melt.” I saw him gulped before he turned to me. I laughed a bit at him again because he looked like a child who wanted to go to

He put his hands on both his ears and hold them.My pizza dropped when he suddenly move up and down, squatting.‘’One... Two… One… Two ... One… ‘’ He said with each lift he went.‘’Are you serious you’re going to do that in this place? ‘’‘’One… Two… One… ‘’ This person doesn’t seem to hear anything and is seriously working out. I look around the restaurant, and I’m not surprised they were all looking in our direction.Oh my gosh, this is so embarrassing.I returned my eyes to Blade who’s still didn’t stop what he’s doing regardless of getting everyone’s attention.‘’Hey... stop it! ‘’ I whispered loudly as I cover my face with my hand. “Blade!”‘’Shhh Crystal...

I sought for the person who had taken it and found him holding the phone, which was already in his ear, nodding his head with both eyes closed. "B-Blade..." "I'll take him to a restaurant near Spencers Corp.," His voice was deep as he spoke to Mushroom on the other line. He didn't even look in my direction when he opened his eyes. My gaze was drawn to his hand, which was covered in white gauze with traces of blood on it. ''W-What happened to you? A-Are you okay?'' ''I'm not okay, I feel like I'm about to die.'' He glanced at me before hanging up. ''H-Huh? Does it hurt so bad? You didn't have that before, how did you-'' ''Crystal, I'm fine. It's just a small wound.'' He said before he handed me my phone. "It's a good thing you came on your own and found me because I have no idea where to even start looking for you." "Will you just leave alone and meet that man if you didn’t find me?"

“Is she still locked up in her room?” “Yes, dad. Since we got back, Crystal hasn't come out.” Blade stated. “I overheard Amara sobbing.” She pretended to be tough. But the truth is, she was deeply upset by what the other people had to say. If she'd just let me present her to the general public, that would be good. My daughter isn't a gold digger. She's a goddamn Dawson!” he yelled, his rage palpable across the room. “— and how come her husband is nowhere to be found? Is he not planning on visiting his wife?” “It's possible he's still in the manor, father.” When Crystal came down the stairs with a suitcase, the two of them came to a halt in their conversation. Blade leaped to his feet and offered to assist he

[Crystal] I didn't seem to have a good dream last night. I dreamed of water and I believe it was a bad omen. I immediately get out of bed after resting for a bit. Fortunately, my morning sickness was not that bad. Such a well-mannered child for not torturing its mother. I plan to go to a doctor today for a check-up and to know the gender of my baby. I think I can ask Liam to go with me. It is the reason why I am so excited that I wake up so early. Whatever the gender of this child will be, I will accept it wholeheartedly and support my child. My hand slightly raised and rubbed my belly. I promise to protect and take care of you, my baby.

[Crystal] Today is the day when Liam plans to tell his family about our child. When we got back from Khun Wanida resort, everything went well and there were no problems. Dad continues to help Blade and Maddison. I can hardly talk to Blade and them every time they are at home. I chose to stay at my father's house. I don't want to cram myself into Spencer's manor. Also, I am more comfortable with it. So far the investigation into the search for their son Blade is ongoing. However, they still do not have information because Maddison's father, Mr. Butler, does not come out of the manor, which i

“I know how important my return is to you. Especially and I saw firsthand with my own eyes how much you missed me during the times I was missing. But, I hope you also understand my decision not to let the public know. It is also for the safety of our future child. I don’t want the time to come to confuse him with the various articles he finds on the internet, or with what people have to say. It is enough for me that you and Noah know that I am still alive and that I have come back to you that I have lost my family. So, I hope you understand me. ” I sincerely muttered while not taking my eyes off my father. “I also don't want to bring up what happened in the past. I don't want to mention my mother here, and especially the events of the past that she wants to forget. ” Mr. was stunned for a moment. Dawson before a smile flash

When Crystal entered the room reserved for them by Maddison she saw that Blade was still inside and they seemed to be talking about something. Crystal didn't hear what they were talking about because they became silent once she got inside as well. Before Blade came out, Crystal followed him with sharp glances. Blade didn't look at Crystal and looked just straight at him until he got out of the door. Silence narrowly enveloped the inner of the room after Blade came out. Both Maddison and Crystal are skeptical of the moves they will make. Crystal was about to step forward to look at the suitcase; she didn't know what the only clothes were when Maddison suddenly blurted out.

[THIRD-PERSON POV] Along the way, Crystal could no longer resist her drowsiness. This is also because she is pregnant. Because she needs more sleep now compared to when she is not yet carrying a baby in her womb. Maddison was just staring out the window and seemed to be deep in thought, as were Blade and Liam. Not even one of them intended to speak. As a result, silence enveloped them. Crystal's father, Mr. Dawson let out a series of sighs as he looked back and forth at the three. One reason he plans on vacation is to have time with Crystal, especially now that she knows who she really is. But, another reason he does this is he wants to have peace between Blade, Maddison, and Liam.

“Where are we going, Blade?” I asked him but he didn't seem to have any plans to tell me. After he conveyed to me earlier the problem he and Maddison were facing, as well as the help Noah had promised, his phone suddenly rang and he received a call. After Blade answered it, he suddenly told me to get in the car, and seemed to be in a hurry to leave. I can't understand what's going on. When I asked Blade who called, he told me it was Mr. Dawson phoned and told both of us to go to a certain location. Which Blade doesn't tell me. He just shut his mouth and didn't utter any words. &nb

[Crystal] "What do you mean you didn't take Noah home with you to Denmark?" I was shocked at the tone of Blade's voice. It sounds disgusting and seems furious at me. His eyes are full of desperation and I can feel his sadness. Maybe he's really mad at me, “I-I can’t push him to go b-back here, Blade. Noah decided to stay in New Jersey for a few more days.” I defended myself honestly. “He wants to fix his relationship with Trina before he comes back here again. And I don’t know how many more days it will take before that thing happens. I’m not sure what will happen there. Now, Noah is anxious, he can't talk because of the quarrel between him and Trina. I could have done nothing but agree as he wished no

[THIRD PERSON-POV] “Are you sure that they would help us?” Maddison whispered to Blade, trying to lower her voice for fear that someone would hear her. “Don’t worry. They are my friends. I am certain that they would do everything to help us. But—” Blade took a long pause before he continued. “The only thing that they might never give you, is to take Liam away from Crystal. She is pregnant with Liam's child, and even if I am swearing him to death, I would never want to take away the father of the innocent child.” Maddison seemed saddened by that fact. Not because of how he felt about Liam, but because of how her father would react. “We will do everything to find our son. Just trust me, Maddi. They are coming back to Denmark
