Third Person’s POV “W-Why? The three of you, why are you here?” Reese asked at the three bullies whom she did not expect to see at the party. Jannah, Cherry and Kimberly looked at each other and laughed. “Why can’t we go here? We were acquainted with Harriet,” Cherry explained. Reese snorted. How thick their face are to call themselves as Harriet’s acquaintance when they bullied her a lot in high school. ‘And what did my father and my idiot sister thought when they invited these b*tches?’ Reese thought. “It is so funny that the adopted daughter dared to question our presence,” Kimberly added. When the ‘adopted daughter’ term was brought up, some of the guest tended their ways to their direction. Reese felt the prickling stares towards her side. Her heart dropped to the pit of her stomach as the cold wave of dread washed over her. She was waiting for the day when Astell would announce her as his second daughter. Now, some accidentally found out her identity, but in a very emba

“The chairman couldn’t attend the birthday party,” the secretary of Finn informed. “Father could not?” Finn asked. He stopped writing on the document and thought of the reason why the chairman would skip attending the celebration. Tonight is Harriet’s birthday. Among the family of Fabroa, only three were invited: Sorren, Zion and Cassius. It is obvious that Harriet won’t bother inviting Finn, Sherly and Madell. Why would she when she suffered a lot in the mansion because of them? Finn couldn’t help but blame his stupid mother and daughter. ‘Why did father skip attending the event?’ Finn wondered before he looked at the secretary to hear more about this. “There was an emergency meeting at the New York branch and the chairman is needed to attend.” “What is the meeting about?” “There was an issue regarding the Heydiko project. The J&E company got involved in drug and political scandal.” Finn stood up in shock. If it is the J&E company, then it is the company Finn had a deal wit

Everyone in the Avellino beach reason was enjoying the lovely day in the beach.Inside the guest house, Cassius and Nadia were having a good time drawing on papers with colorful pencils.They looked at each other, smiling as they wanted to enjoy the time they can still play while their fathers were talking.It was a beautiful day like any other with the clear blue sky and the nice cool breeze. Everything was peace and quiet, until they felt the ground shaking.“W-What is that?!” Nadia gasped.Cassius looked around and saw the chair shaking. The tea water was moving and the little round table became restless. Above, they saw the dust falling down from the ceiling and the picture frames swinging like a pendulum.“It’s an earthquake,” the 7-year-old Cassius said.By the time he realized what was going on, Jasper and Astell went inside.“Kids! Come here!”Nervous became fear for the two children as their parents brought them out of the house. When they reached outside the guest house, the

After a long time, Madell finally came back in the house. She’s wearing an outrageous white jacket, a “look at me” sunglasses, statement shoes, bling bling necklace and a smirk on her face while holding her Louis Vu*ton handbag. Madell like to glam up to impress the masses and feel good about herself. She tends to go above and beyond in looking as fabulous as she can even in the house. It defines what sort of person she wanted to appear in public, which is why she would go out on a lib to make the biggest statement as possibly as she can. ‘I am Madell, the young lady of the Fabroa mansion.’ She wanted to remind the servants who she is as she arrived in the house. Yet, the servants don’t really want to welcome her. For them, Madell is the rich brats who has nothing to do but to beat and trample weak people whom made her feel intimidated. Everyone knows why Madell hated Harriet. Because Harriet is prettier, and the chairman loves Harriet more than her. Madell is pretty too, gi

“This is my gift to you,” Astell said before handling something to Harriet. From the envelope in her hands, Harriet’s eyes went to his dad. After meeting in the hallway this early meaning and had an emotional talk, they went back to their designated room with elated hearts. When the sun went up, they met again in front of the breakfast table where all of Harriet’s favorite when she was young, were served. Last night, Astell told Harriet that he will give his gift tomorrow. That tomorrow is today, on which, Harriet guessed that the scented envelope in her hand is his present. Curious on what’s inside, Harriet opened the envelope. She carefully pulled what’s inside. There is a piece of white bond paper. On the paper, there are words written with blue pen, and it goes like this: [“Trip to____”] Harriet mooned her eyes to the words written. Anyone who will see this might get confused if it was really Astell who made this gift. Others might think it was a work done by a child. But the
