Reese had to take Zion in her room as he is her guest. Thus, she saw that as chance to proceed on her plan.

Inside Reese’s room, which isn’t as large as Harriet, Zion looked around. He does not want to touch anything, as he wanted to finish this acting as soon as possible. Then after visiting Reese, he would go and see Harriet.

Reese turned around to see Zion’s nonchalant gaze.

She smiled at him and said, “It seems like Zion does not like my room.”

Zion raised his brows as she browsed at her. Then, he forged a smile on his lips. “No. It’s fine.”

“Really? I feared that I might bore you.”

“No. You don’t.”

Reese observed him closely. Even when he’s smiling at him right now, there’s nothing in his voice, his eyes, or his expression that says he’s telling the truth.

She glanced up and said, “I have a question.”

“Yes?”

“It’s clear that Zion does not like me.”

Zion felt his smile slipped from his eyes, his lips, and fell completely off his face.

“But you are trying your best to be with me,”

    “I can’t. I don’t want to do that, Zion.” Zion could not response after Harriet said that. He just looked at her with the same expression as before, one without tension. “Before Cassius went here, I promised that I will stay by his side. And I intend to do that until we solved everything.” At once, Zion’s expression hardened. Her gaze stayed on his face, but soon she lowered her eyes and fixated them on the floor. Seconds after, Zion spoke. “It is because of the future you saw in your dream, that’s why you can’t love me again?” Like raindrops trickling down, the voice that said this was chilling. Harriet took her eyes off the ground and shifted her gaze back to the person in front of her. “What did I do? What exactly happened in the past that you decided to stop loving me?” Zion was relaxed at the first glance. But he was unstable. To the point that the composure that he was trying to maintain was being overshadowed. Harriet might not have noticed, but Zion’s other hand ha

    “Can you give me the trip gift?”Astell looked at his daughter who’s holding the white envelope in her hand. Inside is the trip written gift which he personally made for her.He glanced up and looked at his daughter’s complexion. Her skin is paler. There are dark circles under her eyes and she cannot even fake a smile on her lips.These past few days, Astell heard from the servants that Harriet stayed in her room. She ate meals with everyone but she only had few bites and drinks. Harriet sounded fine whenever Astell was talking with her, but he sometimes caught her looking afar. At first, he thought it is because she remembered all of her childhood days. However, it seems it isn’t also the case.Astell put down the report documents. He smiled at Harriet and asked, “You wanted to go on a trip?”“Yes,” Harriet answered. “I think I really need it right now.”“I see,” Astell murmured.Harriet still didn’t look better.

    “No!” The loud shout echoed inside the condo unit. With widened eyes, Zion looked at his cousin who suddenly screamed out of nowhere. Did Zion hear it right? The usually calm and stern Cassius shouted so loud? “W-Why?” Zion stuttered in shock, wondering what made Cassius shouted. Cassius stared at Zion for a long time, trying in vain to compose himself. ‘What should I say?’ Cassius asked internally. “Don’t go inside my room,” is the first thing he thought of saying, which couldn’t conceal his nervousness. Cassius hated and condemned how stupid he is for not conquering the anxiety of getting caught. It will be much awkward if Zion found out that Harriet is inside. Zion stared at Cassius who broke into sweat. Meanwhile, inside the room, Harriet paused like a statue after hitting the lamp by mistake. A moment ago, she noticed that the doorknob wasn’t locked. Therefore, she tiptoed towards the door. However, because it was dim inside the room, she bumped onto the table and as

    When Harriet hugged him, he felt his heart beats as it pumped his blood through his veins. His blood rushed to the tips of his finger, and the pulse came in hot waves that cause everything else to beat. Badump. Badump. Badump. It was scary, but exciting at the same time. He felt like he’s riding in a roller coaster with extreme course of loop. Yet, he loves it. He loves the nervousness which was holding his breath. “You don’t need to apologize. Instead, I wanted to thank you. Thank you for staying alive. Thank you for being strong, Cassius.” He started to feel his body melting at the words he heard from her. All the worries and regrets he felt after remembering what happened years ago have subsided, like water vapor under the scorching sun. Cassius also knew it at this moment, that he will have a hard time moving on from this kind of love. And yes. He loves her more than one could think of. He won’t dare compare his feelings to Zion, but one thing is for sure, he might not l

    Harriet finished her visit. She went to Cassius, asked him if he will go on a trip with her, and got his answer. There’s no reason for her to stay in his condominium, especially when the guards who were sent by her father, are still waiting for her outside the building.“Then, I will go now,” Harriet said, picking up her small bag.Cassius looked at her. He also has no reason to keep Harriet in his condo. Tomorrow they will see each other in the trip so he thought that he should send her away. Yet…‘I wanted to be with her for a long time.’ “It is still early,” Cassius said.As if his words had gravity force on them, Harriet stopped moving and looked back. What does he mean that the time is still early? When Harriet checked her wrist watch, it is already 8 in the evening. Maybe, for other people, eight is still early. But she thinks that she stayed too much inside.“Zion might be still awake,” Cassius added. “You might bump onto him on your way out.”Now, Cassius said something that

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

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
