Chapter 91: Calm
Derrick and Lyra drove home, the sound of the rain tapping against the windshield creating a peaceful ambiance. As they drove, they reminisced about their first drive to the beach together, which was as peaceful as this is. "Do you remember our first drive to the beach?" Lyra asked with a smile. "Of course," Derrick replied, his eyes twinkling with fond memories. "It was such a beautiful night; the stars were shining brightly, and the waves were crashing on the shore. It made me realize that even if everything on land changed, the stars were still the same, dancing and playing in the night sky." Lyra nodded. "And we talked for hours about our hopes, dreams, and fears. I felt like I could really open up to you and be myself. I saw a whole new side of you, something that I never knew I needed." "That was the night I realized that I could never exist without you." Derrick added, squeezing her hand. "It was a very scary moment for me, knowing that even if I am powerful and capable of

Chapter 92: Storm
The old man, Elvis, was reading an article about Lyra's Restaurant with a sense of satisfaction. The article highlighted the challenges that the restaurant was facing, including the controversial hiring of women with questionable backgrounds to run the establishment. The article that Lian posted was perfect for what he wanted. It might not be blatantly showing Lyra’s name and the people that they were trying to expose, but it would serve the purpose that he wanted it to serve. It is enough to make his daughter think about their past encounter and wonder if she made the wrong choice. It was enough to make Lyra see how terrible it is for her to act all tough and mighty in front of him. He knew that Derrick had the capability to ruin his business, but he was also aware that targeting Lyra and those women would give him enough time and perhaps a chance to get out of this hell pit."This is perfect, Wendy! Have you read it?" Elvis asked, his evil smile growing bigger. "I knew that dragging

Chapter 93: Why
Lyra's POVIt's still dark outside, but I can hear the sounds of Derrick's steady breathing next to me. I slip out of bed, trying to be as quiet as possible so I don't disturb him. I make my way to the kitchen, flicking on the lights and getting everything I need to start cooking. I can already feel the excitement building inside of me as I start to prep the ingredients for breakfast. I'm determined to make this the best breakfast Derrick has ever had. I move around the kitchen with ease, quickly and efficiently, as I put together a delicious meal of eggs, fried rice, and sausages. As I open the door to head back to the bedroom, my heart beats a little faster. I can't wait to see the look of surprise on Derrick's face. And just as I suspected, as soon as I opened the door with the tray of food, Derrick woke up with a start, rubbing his eyes and sitting up in bed. I tried to give him food, and we enjoyed giggling about anything we could under the sun. It was a beautiful day for me, but

Chapter 94: Serious
Derrick sat at the kitchen table, staring off into space, his mind lost in thought. Zin, his loyal servant and magical friend, watches him with growing concern. "Master," he said softly. "What's troubling you? I can sense that something is wrong."Derrick looks up at Zin, a haunted expression on his face. "I had a dream last night," he said. "Lucifer was calling me back to hell. with wants me to return there and fulfill my job as a little devil, shouldering some of his work instead of meddling in the affairs of humans."Zin's eyes widen in alarm. "That's a serious matter, Master," he says. "If even Lucifer is getting involved with our matters after all those years of him letting us run around and do stuff, this might have turned out to be as serious as we thought."Derrick sighs deeply. "I don't know," he says. "I just can't make that decision. I am not going to go back down there. I am not ready to do that.""But master, Lucifer called for you.""I love Lyra, and I don't want to leav

Chapter 95: Threats
Elvis was in the middle of a meeting with his advisers when his phone rang. He excused himself and answered the call, only to be greeted with a voice full of worry and urgency on the other end. This isn't the morning that he expected; it's been too stressful for him already with Lyra threatening him."Mister Watson, it's bad news," said his secretary. "I heard that every single one of your business partners is trying to sell their shares all at once, and our investors are pulling out. If this continues, I fear for us because the whole company would be in shambles. We wouldn't last for even a week."Elvis felt a knot form in his stomach. "What the hell is going on?" he demanded."We're not sure, but we're looking into it," his secretary replied. "It's possible that someone is trying to sabotage the company, and I am afraid that it might work if we don't find any solutions quickly."Elvis hung up the phone and turned to his advisers, his eyes blazing with fury. "This is a disaster," he

Chapter 96: Proud
Derrick and Zin were sitting around the couch with steaming cups of coffee in hand, deep in conversation about Lyra."Do you remember the first time we met her?" Zin asked.Derrick took a sip of his coffee and nodded. "Yeah, she was so quiet and reserved; she barely said a word. It was like she was afraid of her own shadow."Zin chuckled and said, "That's definitely not the case anymore."Derrick smiled and said, "No, it's not. She's come a long way since then. I remember when she first told us about her father and how she was afraid of him. It broke my heart to see her so scared.""Yeah, but now she's brave enough to face him and stand up for what's right," Zin said with a hint of pride in her voice."She's amazing," Derrick said. "I admire her so much for putting herself on the line to protect the people she loves. She's grown into such a strong and confident young woman."Zin nodded. "She's always been like a big sister to me, and it's been incredible to see her transformation. I'm

Lyra watched as Derrick sat comfortably on the couch, his eyes closing as he relaxed. She couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with love for him as she gazed at him. His strong and confident demeanor, combined with his kindness and gentle spirit, had captured her heart without her realizing it. She had fallen so deeply, without any regrets.

Chapter 98: Take Back
Lyra woke up next to Derrick with a sense of anticipation and excitement coursing through her body. Today was the day she had been waiting for—the day she could finally reveal her true identity at the Watson's hotel board meeting. She had been working tirelessly behind the scenes, acquiring shares in the company and quietly building her stake until she was the largest shareholder, with the help of Dame and Zin, who had been staying up late at night just to make sure that everything went smoothly. And now she was ready to step forward and take control. She glanced over at Derrick, who was still asleep, and couldn't help but feel grateful for his support. She knew that this was going to be a huge step for her, but she was more than ready for the challenge. With a deep breath, she climbed out of bed and prepared for the day ahead, eager to take her place as the new leader of Watson's hotels. Lyra stepped into the warm, steamy shower, letting the water wash away the grogginess of sleep a

Chapter 99: None
Lyra had just stepped outside of the board meeting, her hands shaking and heart racing with anxiety. She had been nervous about presenting her ideas to the board, and the weight of their decision was almost too much to bear. As she looked around, she saw Derrick waiting for her with a warm smile on his face."My love," he called her with a huge smile on his face. "How was it?""I don't know, I think I blacked out a bit. I don't think I remember anything that happened inside of that room. I just know that I was not myself, I was out of it." Lyra said, breathing heavily. "I was so nervous, I really thought that my knees would just give out any moment."Derrick pulled her into a comforting embrace as he chuckled a bit. "It's alright, I am sure that you did great, my love," he said. "I can tell that you did great as soon as I saw how pale Elvis' face was earlier when he almost ran out just to make sure to get far away from here. I was so sure that you made him lose face in there. I kind o

Chapter 100: Aftermath
Rhian and Raine were busy attending to their customers when suddenly a group of people rushed inside the restaurant. There were three people at a table, and Rhian had finally gotten her moment to rest and hang out with Raine on the floor, helping the servers, but her eyes widened seeing a huge flock of hungry dinners rushing in. It took her by surprise. "Oh my, God." Rhian whispered. "What the hell is happening? It's supposed to be our down time; it's after lunch, right?" "I think so," Raine replied, speaking slowly as she tried to check on her watch. "It is after lunch; why is rush hour happening twice today? I don't think this is right." "Totally," Rhian agreed. "There must be something going on, and I think I might have an idea of what that is." She sighed and wished that whatever was going on in her mind was wrong, but she looked outside once again, and it was looking grim. "This is not looking too good for us; I am already regretting a lot, and I can't even think of a solution
