The four froze like statues after they saw Cassius held Harriet’s hand and pulled her away. It felt as if they saw a dramatic scene right in front of their eyes.

“I think, I will pull back what I’ve said before,” Many murmured, still staring at the direction where the couple went. “I won’t say that Harriet suits Director Zion more.”

“Didn’t he just pull her away after holding her hands and saying that he does not want rumors to hurt his girlfriend?” Jaymee mumbled.

Cassius did not directly say that. But for them, it has the same meaning as: ‘Don’t you dare match her up with another man because I’ll get jealous and get hurt if she face trouble due to that rumors.’

Women have just broad imaginations when it comes to men’s words.

“And he was so manly. Like a knight in shining armor,” Haidee said.

Mario looked at the three single women and he thinks they are living in another fantasy.

“What’s romantic about that?!” Mario complained.

The three glared at him.

    Cassius and Harriet finished early in checking the clothes they will wear during the birthday party event. They both exited the boutique. Cassius was gawking at Harriet. He noticed that she sudden went aloft, and he wondered why. ‘Did I do anything wrong?’ he asked himself. Just a moment ago, he told her that she looks great and he tucked her hair behind her ears. Aside from that, Cassius did not see anything that would make Harriet sulky. ‘Or maybe, it started when I said to the Fantell employees that the rumor about Zion and Harriet isn’t true,’ he made another guess. While he was busy trying to figure out what’s going in her mind, Harriet took the courage to face him and start a conversation. “It’s time for lunch. What do you want to eat?” Harriet asked and she smiled at him. Cassius noticed that Harriet wanted to act as normal as possible. She does not know that acting like this would make her more odd. “Anything. I’m fine with anything,” Cassius answered. At his response

    Harriet regretted dancing in front of many people. This is the reason why she does not want to participate anymore and why she wanted to stop Cassius from joining the game. But he did not give her the chance to stop him. Therefore, things came to this. Cassius is now standing on the stage with thunder struck expression after hearing that he had to showcase his talent. ‘He must be regretting right now!’ Harriet worried. Questions like: “Why did you not stop me? Why did you not tell me about the talent portion? And WHY AM I HERE?!” There are all written clearly at Cassius’s face. ‘I really wanted to tell him that but he jolted there like a bull and without looking back!’ Harriet complained inwardly. Harriet can’t do anything right now. All she can do is to pray for him that Cassius won’t embarrass himself with a crazy talent, just like she did in the original future. ‘I am so sorry, Cassius. But please remember that I did not force you to do this,’ Harriet wanted to come clean.

    Harriet’s POV All preparation for my birthday party was done. The day of the celebration arrived and everyone in the Wyatt’s mansion is excited for the event. I lifted myself from the empty bed where there is still patch of dark warmth in the sky. Reason is because I need to undergo multiple oration in order to make myself presentable in the party that will take place in the Wyatt’s mansion tonight. I soaked in a water filled with red rose in a bathtub, had someone to put special aroma and soothing oil in my body and then when the sun rose magnificently in the canvas of blue, I was finally allowed to rest for a while and have some light breakfast in my room. I didn’t know that dolling myself even with the help of others will be this tiring. We are not even in the half way done. With this, I remember the times when I had no one to help me to prepare when there’s party in the Fabroa mansion. It was always Reese who did my make-up. But now that I know how hectic it is, I somehow pity

    The large hand of the clock seems moving faster for Harriet. It’s not been that long since she heard that Zion and Reese met in the living room and now, it is almost the time for the party to starts. She tried so hard to rest inside her air conditioned room but somehow, things just made her mind messy. In fact, she was unable to sleep well last night. It just that she contemplated a lot on how she’ll face Cassius after the day they went outside to check for their clothes. That day should end with them trying the clothes but they had fun eating outside together, joining games and trying to change the future. It was so fun. So fun that Harriet wonders if she’s allowed to feel this happy whenever she’s with Cassius. What confused her too is that when she heard that Zion came her for Reese, she felt something unexpected. She worries about him rather than feeling jealous to see him together with another woman. Is it because she knows that Zion does not like Reese? Or there’s somethin

    “I notice that you cheer up the room when you walk in.” “...” “You are an inspiration to so many with the way you carry yourself and project the image of someone strong and independent. I learn so much just from being around you.” “...” “You’re always low-key and laid-back, yet you command attention with every move you make. There’s really something about you that is so uplifting.” “...” “You remind me of a garden in bloom. It must be because you always look so cool, fresh and lovely.” “...” Ever since Harriet asked Cassius to tell unique compliments which resemble those from the books, Cassius started spurting countless of compliments with nonchalant face, as if he was only forced to do this. He knows that Harriet is trying so hard to lessen the thick atmosphere between them, and he’s willing to help. As he muttered many, Harriet stared blankly at him. What the hell? What’s wrong with him? She got goosebumps. She wanted to complain about it, but it seemed like Cassius, w

    “Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to Wyatt’s house. Before I start, I would like to thank all of my friends, my faithful partners and trustful personalities who took time to come in this party.”Astell cast a look to Reese and to Zion who’s standing beside her. They both smiled at him as they nodded their heads.If there is one more person whom Astell wanted to see right now, it is Sorren Fabroa. However, he didn’t see the chairman of the Fantell group no matter where he looked around. He proved that what his secretary told him just a moment ago is true. That Sorren couldn’t attend the party on time because something came up. But Astell wished that Sorren could join them even at the last minute. Among everyone, Astell is thankful at Sorren the most.Breathing out for a second, Astell continued his welcome speech.“Tonight, I invited everyone to a very special occasion. I remember the last speech that I prepared a month ago. I think, some of you remember how I stuttered duri

    Since I saw Cassius when he fetched me from my room, my heart has been beating so fast. An uncontrollably pounding heart. ‘Is it because Cassius is so handsome?’ I lifted my head and looked at the man dancing with me. Maybe it is. After I decided to move on from Zion, I started to feel good and my heart races whenever I see good -looking person. I roughly made this judgement and stopped thinking more. This is because there was something I had to do first. I looked down, watching my feet and restraining myself from making any mistake. Two steps after, I stepped on Cassius’ feet again. We both ceased from moving while our hands are holding together. I stayed my eyes downcast before slowly looking back at his gaze. “Does it hurt?” Cassius didn’t answer. I guess the rhetorical question was too bad that he won’t bother answering it. How many times did I step on his feet? My fingers aren’t enough to count all. As Cassius did not respond or move at all after my inquiry, the sile

Something that Zion did not imagine would happen. He and Reese made a deal. Reese promised that she will do her best to get Harriet out of the prison, and that is by confessing Astell about Harriet’s real identity. In exchange, Zion had to marry Reese even if she’s an impostor. Zion gambled his whole life just to protect Harriet. But in the end, Harriet died. Why didn’t he hear anything about this beforehand?

I guessed my legs were still moving, but I couldn’t feel my toes anymore. The water snugged in around me.My limbs were willing to win this fight. But soon, they decided to rest.I took a deep breath as the water closed in around me.‘I’ll never see my father again.’‘And Cassius, he will cry if I die, right?’The light filtering down through the water mocked me. A slight pressure pushed on my chest from the inside.My clothes swirled uselessly around me, weighing down even further. A ringing filled my ears, but otherwise it’s quiet. My lungs burnt. I clamped my shut trying to kick my legs. The urge to breathe is unbearable. My chest was going to explode.‘No.No…I don’t want to die again.I didn’t come back to be in this state again.Please…’As I prayed so hard, I watche

    Cassius shoved his hand inside his pocket. He made sure that he brought the ring with him before going to Harriet’s mansion. He wanted to rent a huge place to do his proposal. But he changed his mind. If there’s one good place to do it, then it is the Wyatt’s garden. Smiling, Cassius entered the mansion. As he stepped inward, Cris, the maid, stopped when she saw him. “Sir Cassius!” she gasped. Cassius looked at the maid who called him in a surprised tone. Cris ran towards him. She was very confused. “W-Why are you here, Sir?” Cris asked. Cassius forged a cough as he shyly answered, “W-Where’s Harriet? I came here to meet her.” “Huh?” That’s weird. As far as Cris can remember, it was Cassius who texted Harriet to meet him in the Damsel park. But, here he is, looking for her. “This morning, I lost my phone. So, I was worried if Harriet was waiting for my text or call,” Cassius added. It was true that he lost his phone this morning, but he was only saying an excuse to see Harr

    Harriet couldn’t sleep well that night. She rolled onto her bed, thinking how and when would Cassius propose to her. She was very excited. “You look like you’re in a good mood,” Astell noticed while eating breakfast with his daughter. Harriet smiled at him and said, “Yes. It is because I found something that I shouldn’t see. Now, I am excited.” Astell chuckled. Despite everything that happened lately, he was glad that his daughter is feeling alright. “What is your plan today?” Astell asked. “I am going to check the new project you are working on. You told me to learn more, so I am doing my best to follow your steps, father.” “Really? I don’t want to force you to take this path. If you want something to achieve, you can have it.” “No, father. Ever since I worked as Grandpa’s secretary, I knew that I love this job. Please, let me enjoy learning from your line of work.” At first, Astell doubted if Harriet would really like to continue his journey as the owner of Wyatt corporation

    Harriet’s POV It’s been one month since that day. I would never forget the time I saw the truth in my own eyes. That moment when Zion was begging his father to come back. [“Poor child. I did my best. But I guess you are more qualified to teach him.”] Those were the murderer's last words before disappeared. All along, we suspected Sherly, Finn, Madell or Reese. In the end, we discovered that the murderer was neither of them, but residing in one of them. It was Finn’s personality, Victor. When Cassius and I arrived in the mansion to save the Chairman, we only saw Grandpa gasping for air on the floor while holding his neck, and Zion begging his father. It was quite a sight to remember; the sight where the future changed and no one died. The Chairman was taken to the hospital. Finn either, before the police took him and interrogated. When Grandpa regained his consciousness, he told us everything, from the fact that Victor killed Diana in order to protect the police. Until now, Gran

    Sorren called Finn after meeting Elona. The prosecutor was still interrogating Madell, and Reese was on the run. Yet, Sorren does not want another day regretting not knowing the truth. More than the corporation’s reputation, Sorren prioritized saving his son from the nightmare and protecting the people around him. Thus, he sat in front of Finn, with Jasmine tea settled on the center table. No one took a sip as they talked in silent arguments with their eyes. Just like in the original future. “Why did you call me? I was very busy, father. Also, it is also weird for you to look for me when I know how much you hate me.” “Why did you do that, Finn?” Sorren asked. Finn stared at his father and tilted his head. “What do you mean?” Sorren gritted his teeth as he stared at his son. “Why did you kill Diana?” Finn’s eyes widened. He lowered his head and acted, “I don’t know what you are talking about. Diana left me a long time ago. She’s not dead!” “W-What?” Then with his head ha

    A week ago, Zion met with the owner of Elona boutique. Sitting across Zion, Elona smiled. She stared at the young man who resembled his parents, the handsome Finn and the gorgeous Sherly. Then, with a grin on her lips, she said, “It seemed that everyone from that family came and visited my shop. The father, the mother and the daughter. And now, It’s you. It made me feel like I am already part of the family.” Zion observed Elona’s sneer before he mimicked her expression; the kind of beam that wouldn’t reach the eyes. “To be a real part of our family, meeting my father, mother and sister isn’t enough. There is one person you should meet,” Zion responded. “Do you mean you?” “Somehow. But there’s one more person. That’s the head of the house, my Grandpa, the Chairman of Fantell group.” Elona stopped for a moment before she chuckled. “Wait a minute. Is that a threat? Did you come here to threaten your father’s mistress?” “No. Even if you are his real mistress, I wouldn’t waste my
