At the time Zion found who killed his Grandpa, he received news that Harriet died in the prison.

How did she die?

Did someone kill her inside the cell?

No. She was sentenced to death. 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?

He realized that everyone fooled him. Reese and him weren’t allied. Instead, Reese joined hands with the people around him to keep it secret that Harriet was going to die in the prison.

Knowing it was late, Zion went to the prison.

‘Harriet. Harriet.’

    Inside the small, windowless room with a brick-walled, I looked at the handcuffs around my wrist then at the door steel in front which is equip with locks and bolts.The place is cold, and each breath slipped from my dried lips feels like there’s a frosting of white that blankets me; air thicken with the stench of my own breath. My skin is cold and clammy, my hands and feet numb with the damp, like I’ve been wrapped wet sheets for days.My heart beats, but I taste no oxygen, as if this place is sterile. My lifeless eyes roamed around the jail cell where I spent countless nights crying.‘Today will be my last day being here.’ Soon, I’ll be sentence to death for the crime I did not do.Hatred, regrets and pity for myself; these are what I felt while reminiscing for the things I sacrificed, using my while life as everyone’s shield.I did not hurt anyone.I served Fabroa family with all my heart.So why?Why do I have to die for the crime I did not do?“Because no one believes me.

    [“You are important to me, Reese. I treat you as my own sister. So, no matter what happened, I won’t never ever leave your side.”] That was the promise I said to Reese a long time ago.Therefore, when I was in the brink of death, I thought she’ll do the same. That she will believe me and she’ll stay by my side until the end. But what did she say when she visited me in the cell?[“I know that you did not kill sir Sorren. But you need to disappear, Harriet. For my happiness, the real heir must die. You will die for me, right? Since you are my friend, Nadia Wyatt. You are the true Nadia Wyatt, Harriet. But don’t worry. As soon as you disappear, I will do my best to portray your position. We’re friends after all.”]Friend?A friend who stole my position and wished for me to die?I looked at Reese who is standing at the open door of my room.

    “I could not understand. Why should we wait for a mere secretary before we can start eating?” Madell asked while sitting in front of the dining table, together with the whole family.She looked at her parents, to Mr. Finn and Mrs. Sherly Fabroa, who both have their face crumpled as they stared at their spoiled brat daughter.“I don’t understand why do I need to wait for that b*tch,” rolling her eyes, Madell continued.A little later, Madell felt someone kicked her feet under the table. And it was done from her brother, who’s sitting beside her.“Ouch!” she winced as she looked at her left side.Zion turned his head to his sister. Just like Madell who has a gorgeous face and smooth skin as if bathed from milk, Zion was also blessed with handsome features and nice built.He has a crew cut and darting eyes, Hades-black eyebrows affixed to an aesthetic face, a hawky’s nose and a shapely face. No wonder why many entertainment companies asked him if he has a plan to enter the showbiz. But h

    The dining room is so quiet, only the sounds of the cutlery hitting the plate were heard around.While everyone was busy staring at each designated plate, Zion took the chance to look at Harriet who’s sitting across him and beside his grandfather.Harriet is so beautiful today.She’s wearing a make-up and she let her chocolate hair laid down.Zion remembered the words he heard from his high-school classmates before. They said that Harriet is so pretty many would adore her in school. Zion felt so proud. He sees Harriet as his own sister, and he’s happy whenever he heard good thing about her. However, the Harriet whom he saw as his family, began to appear like a stranger; a gorgeous stranger.Looking at her, Zion’s heart began to beat faster.Is it because of the pink lipstick on her lips?Or because she’s wearing the yellow dress that Zion gifted to her during her last birthday?‘This is weird,’ Zion told to himself.Harriet grabbed the glass of water on her right side.

    Harriet’s POV“Just because my brother gave you a dress, you think so highly of yourself?” Madell roughly carries the yellow dress that Zion bought for me. Almost stumbling, I chased after her. When Madell found out that her brother gifted me a dress, she wanted to own the clothe and asked me to give it to her instead. Of course, I did not agree.As a result, Madell went so mad. She snatched the dress from my hand, and I followed her until we arrived at he mansion’s living room. During that time, only I, Madell and the maid, Reese, were present. “Please Madell! Give it back to me!” I begged. Madell looked at me with a grin on her lips. Ever since we were kids, she treated me like a garbage and a stone in her eyes. But because she is Zion’s sister and for the sake of peace, I let her do whatever she wanted, not realizing that I was too blinded by love and hopeless affection from other.But that time… she’s going overboard. “Give it back to you?” she said in sarcastic tone. “Why

    I only have two wishes before: To be with Zion for a long time and for him to reciprocate my feelings. These were my medicine against his family’s slavery. I had endured a lot, waiting for the day when they can accept me. But all of my hope had disappeared when the police arrested me as the main suspect for killing Zion’s grandfather. I can still remember that very day when Zion left me: “No! That is not true! Please believe me! I did not kill grandpa Sorren!” The police took me out of the mansion by force. I was crying so hard as I tried to pull myself from their tight clutches. When I looked back and saw Zion staring at me, a newborn strength entered my body, that I succeeded escaping from the two big police standing so close at my sides.After pushing them away, I pathetically ran towards Zion. The first thing I did?I knelt down. I knelt in front of him and begged. “Please, Zion. Please believe me. You know how much I love grandpa Sorren, right? So how can I kill him? I can

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
