Even though the girl was just an ugly and thin girl who used to be weak and sickly, why now she grew prettier than her with her beautiful clothes and adorable accessories?
“You don't know what you're saying, sister! Master Zaha, Yesha and Yelan are good people! Don't talk like that about them!" cried Molly, sad and angry. Why couldn't her sister understand and see their kindness?
Even after what her sister had done, Mrs Gold still gave her half of the money on the sale of the house. But how could her sister come with these scary people and accuse Mr and Mrs Gold and Master Zaha and his two servants with such accusations?
“SHUT UP!” snapped Otto who was getting tired of seeing the drama. He immediately ordered his men to start breaking through the front door and dragging the couple out of there.
But of course, everyone didn't realize how strange the expressions of the Old Duke and Du
Abby wouldn't stop at that. She continued."And you! You hired me at your residence because you wanted to spy on this place! It was you who asked me to come to this place and tell you everything I saw!” Abby pointed at Laurel.And instantly, Laurel lifted her face. She, who was just kneeling and shaking on the ground, immediately tried to defend herself. "Nonsense! Why are you telling lies?! T-That's not true, Your Grace!”While defending herself, Laurel accidentally saw the expression on Harriet's face.And instantly, she felt her hairs stand on ends looking at the woman's warm and gentle gaze, which didn't change a bit from usual. Even in front of this kind of chaos, the woman decided that it wasn't enough to show an expression other than her default warm and reserved face.Laurel then understood why she felt so annoyed with Harrie Gold.It was
Harriet spoke very softly, and the Old Duke smiled faintly at that. He said, “You're right. But as a leader, there can't be any excuse. A leader must always be perfect in their duties.”And the old man continued, "That's why I knew you are the most worthy of standing as the new ruler of the north."The two of them stared at each other. Not long before today, less than a year ago, the two made a deal.Back then, winter was almost over in the north when the Old Duke left Almandine Castle to defend the Western Fortress against the Lycan forces from the Western Continent.Harriet knelt before him, atop the walls of the western fort, and the Old Duke gave her an irresistible deal.In the twilight of that day, the Old Duke felt he was very lucky to find this woman.And he was happy that his decision was right.Harriet Goldlane was a
"In the early days after I left home, I always told myself that 'I am going to find a way for my grandson to recover'. But year after year… my failure to find a method that works for you is pushing me away from you.”Liam was silent. His gaze became gloomy, and the light in his golden eyes dimmed slightly.“And I don't know when… I started to give up. Until it makes me unable to face you and see your face even more."The two of them stopped walking.The woman slowly removed her hand from Liam's arm and looked up to see the face of her grandson who was taller than her.“Liam… will you forgive Grandma?”Alameida's green eyes stared straight at Liam. It took so long for Alameida to muster up her courage and express her guilt to her grandson whom she loves so much.Her grandson… who had suff
Before everyone could react, Harriet chuckled and sang again.“Happy birthday, my dearI truly wish for all your dreams and desires to come trueand may you live to a 1000 years”The atmosphere turned cheerful. Harriet's sweet and cheerful voice made everyone smile and brought them back to their senses. Liam stepped closer and blew out the candles on the cake Harriet had brought.The man took the cake and put it on the table next to them and hugged Harriet tightly.“You surprised me… thank you, Madam,” he whispered.Harriet hugged Liam back, and she chuckled. “Oh, when I heard that His Grace and Her Grace were visiting, I knew right away that they were coming to celebrate your birthday…”Liam let go of his arms and looked down at Harriet's face looking up at him. “And how did you prepare al
Cecilia Wolfsbane, Cecilia Morganite and now, Celine Diamond.Cecilia had never felt the rejection of the body she was in, and when she sensed Celine's presence within her, she thought she had gone mad.No way… Celine was dead! She was the one who killed her with her own hands!This body was hers and hers alone. She doesn't want to share her place with another soul!Fucking god… why would he allow that woman's soul to invade HER body like this?“HUK—URK!”Die! Die! Die! Die!In her quiet room, one cold morning, Cecilia woke up because she felt like she was suffocating. She tried her best to catch her breath, but it felt too tight.As she tried to get up and see what had happened to hEr, in the mirror, she saw her own hands strangling her neck."ARK! GASP! GHAKH!"
“GRRK—AAAAAAARGH!” Cecilia opened her third eye. A golden light shone from the iris of her third eye and illuminated her room on that cold morning. Knock knock! "Celie?! You are okay? This is brother, open the door!" Cecilia glanced towards the door with bloodshot eyes. She didn't want Ethan to see her like this. She had to quickly fight whatever was trying to kill her. She started to use all her Holy Energy to strengthen her own soul, and little by little, she managed to take back her body. “Damn ghost… now feel it... the power of the Goddess I have…” Cecilia took a deep, careful breath. Her neck looked blue from the strangulation mark. She took another breath and healed herself. But now she was so angry. She was too angry to face Ethan now because she wouldn't be able to act sweetly in front of him.
“Your Highness! We found something!”Ezekiel looked back at the shout from one of his men. He turned and jumped off one of the slippery cliffs, landing right next to a large, suspicious-looking iron panel.The panel was hidden from view because it was in a generally inaccessible place, and was covered by so many rocks. From its shape, the panel looked more like an iron door that could only be opened from the inside.“Stay away, and tell the others to be careful. I'll try to open it."Ezekiel clenched one hand and pulled his elbow back to make the stance of destroying the iron panel.Blue light began to envelop his hand and—BOOM!CRACKLE!“Huh,” Ezekiel didn't expect the iron panel to not budge at all, and instead the surrounding rocks cracked. "There's a cavity underneath, I can fe
"Too bad. This is the best facility we have,” said Ethan quietly.Right now, he and Cecilia were running through one of the escape passages heading south.“Does Elder Brother have any other hiding places besides here?” asked Cecilia who was running behind him.“None this big, but the others are just as decent as this one. This time we will go to the area before the border between Diamond and Padparadscha. There, I have an acquaintance who will help us get into our other facilities.”Ethan's explanation made Cecilia furrow her brows. She wasn't happy.“But Brother, don't we want to repay them? We had to sacrifice our best base, so we have to take something from them. Why do we keep running?” she asked.Ethan looked back, seeing Cecilia's displeased expression.“Celie… we're not ready y
