Sinful: What do you think about my last proposal? Do you think we can work on it?Lily's hands hovered over her keyboard as she typed the words out. Deliberating between sending the message or not, she paused for several minutes before hitting the delete button, afraid that it would come out as pushy.Just as she was about to close the site and get back to sewing, Alpha's profile turned green, showing he was online. And immediately after, it showed he was typing.Alpha: It's good that you are online today. If I may ask, how are you?Without hesitation, Lily typed out her reply.Sinful: I'm alright, just a little bored these days. There's nothing much to work on. The jobs posted on the site are a little too easy, and they don't fetch as much money. I don't want to have to dig around for other people's dirty laundry. What about you? Is everything alright on your side?Mark paused as he read her reply; his eyes flickered at the opened chat on his phone. He had been on the phone with his

As Light walked out of the room, Lily's eyes found Gary's cold ones. Seeing the accusations in his eyes, she lifted her hands in surrender."I was not aware he was coming. I swear I was not in the know," she hurriedly explained, and Gary let out a frustrated sigh."I know. He has our family traits in him; he's determined and stubborn, he would not have stopped until he met me, it's something I had done when I found out about him also." Gary scoffed as he relaxed into the chair."It runs in the family, and seeing the bruise on his lips, I can tell he fought with his father before he came to see me," he added."I thought you were the one that hit him," Alana chimed, earning a glare from Gary."And why would I hit him? On the face, no less? You think I want to ruin his pretty boy appearance?" He asked, and Alana shrugged.Lily sighed as she examined Gary. Although he was putting on a strong front, she could tell he was affected by the sudden meeting between him and his twin brother. She

The lively rhythm of the club's music resounded through the air as Frederick leaned in towards the man sitting beside him, his voice barely audible over the deafening beat."How was the investigation? Any response yet?" He asked, his eyes briefly flicking towards his companion before settling back on the mesmerising dancer on stage, twirling seductively around the pole at the centre of the stage. He took a slow sip of his wine, fingers toying with the stem of the glass as he continued following the dancer’s every movement.“I’m afraid we found nothing. I already told you it was an impossible task without a name or any mode of identification,” Devon, his companion, and one of his few friends replied casually with a grin while he played with the woman on his arm. Frederick frowned at his response; this was the third person who had told him the same thing that very day.As promised, he had started looking into the identity of the hacker or programmer working with Mark on his newest pro

"Why are you dressed so suspiciously? What tricks are you up to this time?" Alana asked with a raised brow as she noticed Lily, who was dressed in a way that made her gender unrecognisable."You talk as if I'm always playing tricks," Lily replied with a playful glare. "That's because you are always planning something. Is this related to the new plans for the store or something else?" Alana asked as she looked Lily over, searching for a trace of her boss. "Are you wearing a wig and lenses right now?" She asked and Lily nodded. "If you were meeting me for the first time, would you know I'm a lady? Do I give off the perfect masculine energy?" She asked with a subtle baritone voice, making Alana gape at her in surprise."What's the heck? Yes, I would definitely know; your voice sounds fake and unnatural but you do give off a subtle masculine vibe like the transgender kind.""Are you going to commit a crime?" Alana was questioned with a suspicious expression, making Lily roll her eyes.

"I don't like the fit of this dress, ugh! It's so big and uncomfortable," Celina grumbled as she twirled around, fully dressed for the award event that was going to start in a few hours.Being one of the prominent families in the fashion industry, the Lam Fashion is held in high esteem, making attending the banquet a must for Celina who'd rather be somewhere else than entertaining some obnoxious guests. "You also think it's too overrated, don't you? I told Mum I don't like the dress but she insisted I wear it to honour the designer of the dress who would be in attendance tonight. To think I'll have to spend the next few hours hating myself, ugh!" She continued as she turned to the bored-looking Lily, dressed casually in a sweatshirt and sweatpants. "It's not over the top; it's okay; it just doesn't fit your taste. A lot of people will want to kill to have that dress you know? Just have it on for a few hours and you can change out of it later," Lily advised, making Celina scrunch up
