Chapter: Seventy Six
EVE’S POVIt had been two months since everything changed. The chaos, the heartbreak, the revelations—they were now all behind us. Kelvin had been sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. Morgana had packed up her life and relocated to the States, disappearing into the shadows of her own guilt and shame.Hamilton? He had surprisingly moved on. Over the past weeks, he and Priscilla had grown closer—so close that the city now referred to them as a couple. I wasn’t shocked. Priscilla had always admired him from afar, and Hamilton, perhaps in his own quiet way, had needed someone gentle to mend his broken pieces.As for me and Felix, our story had finally found a label. We were officially together—and not just to ourselves. Our relationship was now public knowledge. The media buzzed with our photos, friends cheered, and even Daniel gave us his rare approval.Today, I was visiting my mother at her new family home—a sleek, serene duplex in a calm neighborhood nestl

EVE’S POVThe elevator doors slid open with a soft ding, and as Felix and I stepped out onto the executive floor, a wave of tension hit the air like a wall. At the far end of the hallway, Kelvin and Morgana stood waiting. As soon as their eyes met mine, that same sinister smirk spread across their faces like a slow venom.“Well, well, well…” Kelvin’s voice cut through the thick silence like a blade. “Who do we have here? The hero and his little victim.” He let out a snide chuckle and turned to Felix mockingly. “Hey, Mr. Tough Guy. Weren’t you all puffed up yesterday? What happened? Scared I’ll leak your girl’s nudes and let the world see what you’re banging behind closed doors?”He and Morgana burst into cruel laughter.Felix lunged forward instinctively, rage surging in his eyes, but I grabbed his arm and stopped him. “Not now,” I whispered.Releasing my grip on his hand, I walked forward slowly—heels clicking across the marble floor like the ticking of a time bomb. Kelvin stood t

**EVE’S POV**“Are you expecting someone?” I asked, narrowing my eyes at Felix as I stood by the living room entrance.He gave a small nod. “Yeah. Can you get the door?”Without a word, I walked to the door and twisted the knob open.“Hi—”The rest of my greeting froze in my throat the moment my eyes met hers.I blinked. Once. Twice.“Mary?”She gave a small, uneasy wave. “Hey, Eve.”The world around me slowed. I closed my eyes and opened them again, hoping she was a trick of the light, a ghost from the past. But she remained—real, standing in flesh and blood in front of me.“What… What the hell is happening here?” I turned sharply to Felix, who simply shrugged like this was some casual reunion.“Let her in,” he said calmly. “I’ll explain everything.”The next ten minutes felt like a therapy session turned interrogation. Felix laid everything bare—how he met Mary by chance, how they got talking, how she confessed to knowing Kelvin’s secrets… and her part in it.The moment the truth s

**FELIX’S POV**I shoved Kelvin roughly to the floor, my chest heaving as rage clouded my judgment. My fists clenched at my sides as I turned to face Morgana.“You knew,” I growled. “You fucking knew about this, didn’t you?”She flinched slightly at my tone, but the arrogance on her face didn’t waver.“Hamilton was right. You’ve always had something sick up your sleeve. Blackmailing Eve with her past? How low can you get, Morgana? What the hell happened to you?”Morgana straightened her posture and gave a bitter chuckle. “She shouldn’t have come here and stolen my spotlight. I’ve always been the star—until she showed up and everyone suddenly forgot I exist.”“Shut the fuck up!” I roared and, without a second thought, slapped her across the face. The sound cracked through the room like a gunshot.Everyone froze.“You think this is about the spotlight?” I snapped, breathing hard. “Eve was in a relationship. A real one. Sure, it got intimate, but that asshole over there—” I pointed at

**FELIX’S POV**“Make sure you text me when you’re done, Eve. Don’t disappear on me again.”She smiled faintly, already stepping into one of my cars. “I won’t. I promise.”I sighed and reluctantly unwrapped my arms from her waist. She slid into the back seat and shut the door gently.I leaned on the window and turned to the driver. “Drive her safely,” I said with quiet seriousness. He nodded in understanding, started the engine, and pulled away.I watched until the car disappeared around the corner.The second I stepped back inside, I pulled out my phone and dialed the number from the message.It rang… once… twice…Finally, a voice answered, sharp and annoyed. “And who is this?”I rolled my eyes. “This is Felix. You messaged me? Said you had something to tell me about Eve and Kelvin? What was that about?”“Slow down, tiger. I don’t just hand out information for free,” she replied smoothly. “You’re gonna have to pay me.”I scoffed. “Seriously?”“Dead serious.”“How do I know you’re n

EVE’S POV “Felix, slow down!” I called, nearly jogging to keep up.He suddenly stopped, yanked his hand away from mine, and turned on me.His chest rose and fell rapidly. One hand raked through his hair in frustration before he looked at me—and for a split second, I genuinely flinched.His eyes. They weren’t just angry.They were hurt.“Why, Eve?”I blinked. “I don’t understand—”“Why didn’t you tell me?!” His voice cracked. “Why didn’t you say anything about what Morgana did to you? About how Kelvin treated you?! You let them humiliate you—and you just took it!”I opened my mouth, but he wasn’t finished.“And what’s worse—worse, Eve—is that you actually responded when he sent you to get him coffee. Like you were… his servant or something!”“Felix, I just thought—”“That it would be nice?!” His tone cut sharp. “That’s bullshit, Eve. That wasn’t kindness. That was submission. And that’s not you. That’s not the woman I—”He stopped himself, jaw tightening.“If Priscilla hadn’t told me,

SANDRINO’S POV My back stiffened in an instant. If someone saw me in the female restroom right now, I would never live it down.The sounds of footsteps drew closer and closer, to the point where we could already see the person’s clothes. I cursed quietly and quickly began thinking of a way out. Thinking fast, I scooped up Zetian’s belongings and pulled her into a cubicle, shutting the door behind us.It was the screenwriter, Jennifer, who had come to look for her. Only Jennifer had noticed that she hadn’t returned from the restroom for a long time, so she had come to look for her.Within the cubicle, Zetian was frightened from suddenly being dragged inside and was struggling in my embrace. The noise caught the attention of Jennifer outside.“Zetian, is that you?”Hearing the voice closing in on us, my expression turned even darker. It was right at this moment that Zetian actually bit the hand I was covering her mouth with- it hurt so much that I furrowed my brows, but didn't let go

SANDRINO’S POV In the car, Little Prince stared at the phone waiting for a reply, his expression one of great suffering and hatred.I unfastened my seatbelt.“I will go take a look, wait for me here.”Little Prince grabbed onto the corner of my father’s shirt, indicating that he wanted to tag along with me.I looked at Little Prince.“If she’s drunk, I can only carry one of you.”His cheeks puffed out in protest, his small frame stiffening as he clenched his fists. His pride was wounded—he didn’t need anyone to carry him!My expression darkened. “Unfortunately, my trust in you is at its lowest since the incident from last time. I’m unable to believe that you’ll be able to take care of yourself. If you get lost again, even I won’t be able to bear the consequences, understood?”Little Prince bowed his head with a lonely expression. Realising that I had spoken too seriously, I rubbed his little head.“I’ll be right back.”“Kyle, bring the car to the underground garage.”“Yes, Alpha.”

I had wanted to give you a chance, only..”A sharp, bitter laugh escaped my lips.Who would have thought that the person to ruin my dreams would be my own father?I had spent weeks preparing for this role, fighting tooth and nail for it. And now, all my effort had been reduced to nothing with just a few dismissive words.—-------------When the banquet had ended, it was already 11 pm. It seemed to be true that a person would get drunk easily if they were in a bad mood.I felt that I hadn’t drunk much today, but I started wobbling when I stood up, and my temples started throbbing in pain.It was right at this moment that I saw someone who would make me feel even worse.Frank Radford.Some of the cast, especially the women, had already started exclaiming in surprise upon spotting the new arrival.“Ah!

ZETIAN’S POV “We didn’t think that Mr Andersons would have the time to come to our opening ceremony. It’s really such an honour!” Director Guo greeted him warmly in a humble manner.“Come, sit over here, Mr Anderson!” Producer Jerry gave his seat to Mr Andersons so he could sit next to Cindy.Julian’s gaze softened as it landed on Cindy. He leaned over to her, his tone affectionate.“My daughter is in your care, Director Guo,” he said, placing a hand on Cindy’s shoulder.“The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Chairman Julian, your daughter is so talented, she hardly needs our care at all,” Director Guo responded with a chuckle.Julian sighed dramatically. “This child is always so busy! Even as her father, I have to personally make a trip or else I wouldn’t get to see her!” Julian said angrily. Although he said it with a straight face, there wasn’t a trace of actual anger in his eyes, only fondness.Laughter rippled through the table.“You should be happy that Cindy works so hard

ZETIAN’S POV “What kind of roles were these?”“Wait… a mistress? A fox spirit? A demoness? A country girl? A brainless eldest daughter? Even an old evil woman? For a beauty such as her, what kind of interest is this? Why did she like to choose roles like those?” Murmurs erupted.Someone eventually asked. “Why do you keep playing antagonist roles?”I could not reveal Katherine’s actions here even though Gemini was persuading me to, so I calmly spoke up. “Actually, I didn’t notice. Acting is a much beloved career for me. To me I don’t see roles as big or small, every character has a life of their own, and to me, bringing them to life is what matters most.”Following that, the media asked more questions. Even though I didn’t have a manager to guide me, I had answered them perfectly one by one.Guo kept nodding as he watched from the side. “This lady is doing really well! Despite having this kind of quality and EQ, she still hasn’t managed to make it big yet after entering the industr

ZETIAN’S POV “Well,” he said, his voice carrying over the murmurs, “speak of the devil.”Guo’s lips curled into a knowing smirk as he gestured toward me. His expression held a silent challenge—wait and see.The moment the reporters followed his gaze, the entire red carpet event seemed to pause. A collective hush fell over the crowd. The flashing of cameras momentarily stopped. The murmurs that had filled the air just seconds ago evaporated into stunned silence.I could feel their eyes on me, drinking in every detail.I was wearing a magenta dress made out of lace. The cutting of the fabric flattered my mesmerising waistline while the collar revealed my beautiful collarbone. Magenta was not an easy color to pull off. On the wrong person, it could be overwhelming—too bold, too loud. But on me? The dress felt as if it had been crafted for my very existence, enhancing my natural features and elevating my presence to something almost ethereal.However, it was as if that dress was made spe

**KAGURA’S POV**The car was silent as my father drove me to school.Today I turned seventeen, yet nothing about the morning felt different from any other. No cards, no cake, no special words. Just the same heavy quiet and the same cold dread that lived in my chest every weekday.He pulled up to the curb and stopped me before I could step out.“Wait.”I leaned back down.“After your chores tonight, get dressed—something nice. We’re going out for a family dinner.”I stared at him. We never went out to eat. The idea of celebrating my birthday at a restaurant felt almost surreal.“Go,” he said. “You’re letting the cold in.”I nodded and shut the door.The moment I walked toward the building I felt the weight of dozens of eyes. Students paused mid-conversation to watch me pass. I checked my clothes, discreetly sniffed my shirt—nothing was wrong. Still they stared.Inside the entrance a familiar voice stopped me.“Hey, beautiful.”Aamon stood there grinning. Before I could react he wrapped

**AAMON’S POV**A full week had passed, and Kagura still hadn’t done a single thing about the jealousy I could scent on her every time Tems touched me.Most mates would have snapped by now. Most would have made it clear the other female needed to keep her hands to herself. Kagura only watched from a distance, picked at her food, and pretended I didn’t exist.It was starting to drive me insane.At lunch Tems laughed too loudly at something one of her friends said and tugged on my arm for the tenth time. Her perfume was so thick it made my eyes water. I forced a smile and tried not to pull away.“Do you want to, Aamon?” she asked, leaning in close enough that her lips brushed my cheek with an exaggerated smack.I turned my head. “Sorry—what?”She giggled. “The mall after school. Aero’s having a sale. I need new tank tops. Everyone’s going.”“Uh… sure.” The word tasted like ash. The last thing I wanted was to spend Friday afternoon shopping with a girl who wasn’t mine.Ten minutes later

AAMON’S POV**Kelvin bounced happily on my legs while I made faces at him. In the corner of my eye I saw Kagura holding my phone out. I settled the little boy on my lap, kept one arm around him, and took the phone with my free hand.**Kelvin isn’t my son. He’s my brother.**The words didn’t register at first. The phone slipped from my fingers and hit the table with a sharp crack. The screen spider-webbed instantly.“Crap,” I muttered, staring at the broken glass. Then the meaning hit me fully. My head snapped up.“He… isn’t your son?”Kagura nodded and gave me a look that clearly said *obviously*.“But you act so… motherly with him. The way he clings to you, the way you look at him—I just assumed—”I couldn’t finish. Confusion tangled every thought. She only shrugged, then formed a heart with her hands and pointed at Kelvin.“You love him. That’s why.”She nodded.“Does your mom not…?” I started, then immediately regretted it when hurt flashed across her face. The memory of her mother

**KAGURA’S POV**I sat on my bed with my back against the wall, Kelvin nestled between my legs, and both of my hands pressed gently over his ears. Across the hall my parents’ voices crashed against each other like waves.“How about you help me for once?” my father shouted.“What exactly do you want me to do, Fred?” my mother shot back.“Get off your lazy ass and find a job! I can’t be the only one paying for everything in this house—especially not with the amount of liquor you put away every week. You’re getting a job. End of discussion.”“With what education?” she screamed. “You made me drop out of college the second I got pregnant with Kagura—”The sharp crack of a slap cut her off. I flinched. Another slap followed, then the heavy thud of a body hitting the wall.“You will never speak to me like that again,” my father snarled. “I am your husband. You will respect me and do what I say. Find something—anything—that pays.”“Where?” she demanded, still foolish enough to keep talking. “

**KAGURA’S POV**I kept my arms crossed tightly over my chest and my hood pulled up as I walked down the hallway, trying to put distance between myself and everyone else. Behind me I heard Zetian calling my name, her voice growing closer as she hurried to catch up.Her hand closed around my arm and she pulled me to a stop.“Hey, didn’t you hear me?” she asked, pushing her glasses up. “I’ve been calling you for a full minute.”I stepped around her without answering. She only paused for a second before falling into step beside me again.“Did I do something wrong?”I shook my head and pulled out the note I had written earlier. In it I told her that I appreciated her wanting to be friends, but that I preferred being alone. I held it out. She hesitated, then took it.I kept walking. She was a fast reader. Before I had gone a dozen steps she was back at my side.“Wait, Kagura, come on.”I lengthened my stride, hoping the cold silence would finally convince her to give up.“Look, you can act

**KAGURA’S POV**Changing in the girls’ locker room always felt like standing under a spotlight I never asked for. Around me, other girls moved with easy confidence—tanned skin, soft curves, laughter that came without effort. I kept my eyes down, trying not to compare my pale, thin frame to theirs. The contrast was impossible to ignore.I pulled on the gray PE shirt with the school logo and the ugly green basketball shorts, then tied my hair into a high ponytail. I checked the concealer one last time, hoping it would last through the period, and stepped out into the gymnasium.Sophomores and seniors shared PE because the school was small. Students were already running their required seven laps. I started at a light jog, already resenting every step. Running had never been something I enjoyed, and today my body felt heavier than usual. Kelvin had finally slept through the night, yet the bone-deep exhaustion never seemed to leave. If I disappeared, who would take care of him? The quest
