Rebecca was about the same age as Persephone, naturally sharing more common topics of conversation, like outfit styling.Persephone praised her sense of style. A seemingly ordinary top looked refreshing when paired with a skirt suggested by Rebecca."Where did you learn all this?" Persephone casually picked up a bag and glanced at the mirror. "Hmm, I've never worn this since the designer sent it over. I always felt it was too plain. Your combination looks pretty good.""It's your inherent charm," Rebecca complimented with a smile.However, her gaze shifted to the bag in Persephone's hand—a top-tier international brand. The chief designer had personally tailored it, making it the only one of its kind in the world.Owning even one of these unique luxury items in their lifetime would be a challenge for an ordinary person. Yet, Persephone had a room full of them. From clothes to shoes to handbags, even various scarves, belts, and accessories—she didn't use limited editions but customi

"What's wrong? Am I scary?" Persephone chuckled. "Morpheus has already gone back to his place. We should head back, too.""Mr. Orton... has left?""Yeah.""How did he leave?"Persephone smirked at her. "He jumped off the rooftop!"Rebecca was stunned and instinctively glanced outside. The night was dark, making it hard to see anything. Persephone urged her into the car, and she hurriedly followed. As she crossed the threshold, she nearly stumbled.Persephone looked at her from inside the car and chuckled. "I thought I'd have trouble in high heels, but who knew you'd stumble even in flats?""Sorry about that," Rebecca replied awkwardly, rushing into the car.She sat in the passenger seat and caught a glimpse of Persephone's slightly flushed face in the rearview mirror."Ms. Hamerton, you must be happy tonight.""It was alright.""Did you drink tonight?""A little red wine," Persephone said softly. "No one will find fault with it as long as we return to the palace before curf

The state of the palace's servants' quarters wasn't bad, but Rebecca didn't stay long. She returned, dragging her luggage.Persephone didn't have classes that day. She was in the yard reading a book and sipping coffee when the butler brought Rebecca in.Persephone pursed her lips. It seemed like she had been waiting for this moment, only it came much sooner than she had anticipated."I thought you wouldn't come to me so soon," Persephone said softly. "Even if you did, I thought it would at least take three days.""Ms. Hamerton, can you give me another chance?""Not particularly inclined to." Persephone was blunt, looking up at Rebecca. "When you were trying to get close to my boyfriend behind my back, did you ever think this day would come?"Rebecca was pale, fists clenched tightly.These past few days hadn't been easy for her. The servants in the palace knew she had been kicked out late at night by Persephone and didn't treat her kindly.The story had spread, and various versi

Persephone's final design experiment was set to take place in a fireworks factory, and she put in a lot of preparatory work for it.This fireworks factory was under royal management, so she was often seen entering and leaving with Christopher.There were murmurs in the palace, and these bits of gossip quickly spread outside.Morpheus also caught wind of some information outside the palace.In the cafe, he sat quietly by the bed. The sunlight was still bright today, and the place remained empty without any patrons. A sign hung outside the courtyard door, indicating a temporary closure. It had been there for many years.Since he left Southeast Aciatic, this courtyard hadn't seen any visitors.Alfred Farrar placed a cup of hot black tea in front of Morpheus while his wife, Marie Farrar, was busy cleaning inside and outside. Both exchanged a glance, shaking their heads in resignation, and sighed.-Back then.Kaiden, the military general of Southeast Aciatic, conspired with foreig

Morpheus paused, meeting Persephone's earnest gaze. "But I haven't given you anything yet...""You've already given me the best!" Persephone blushed, smiling softly. To her, he was the best gift in the world."Let's go. Don't stand in the blazing sun!" She took his hand. "Today, you're my chauffeur, and I'm touring Southeast Aciatic!"He indulgently chuckled. "That wish seems a bit challenging." "No matter what Grandma Cordelia wishes, Grandpa Zephyr always makes it happen!""I see." He ruffled her hair. "Grandpa Zephyr is Grandma Cordelia's superhero.""So what about you?""I..." Morpheus pondered. "I'll be your Doraemon, okay?"Persephone smiled sweetly.After securing their seatbelts, Morpheus started the car. Under the sunlight, their laughter drifted in the wind.-Persephone shared her plan to complete her graduation project at the fireworks factory with Morpheus.Morpheus' brow twitched, and he turned to her with a smile, which she could tell was quite strained. Her
