Stella collapsed onto the floor, her body still trembling.Camille bent down and pinched her chin, forcing her to look up."Stella, killing you would be as easy as crushing an ant. Remember that I'm in control here, and stay out of my way."She released her chin and stood up, leaving Stella frozen in fear as she walked away.......After freshening up, Camille sat in her room with her laptop open. Her fingers flew across the keyboard as encrypted codes flashed across the screen.Since legitimate websites offered little useful information about the Rodriguez family, she turned to the dark web.Fortunately, her search wasn't in vain.Matteo Rodriguez, the eldest son of the family, usually resided at the Rodriguez Mansion but frequently stayed at a private residential suite in Regalia Hotel.A smirk appeared on Camille's face."Bingo."She quickly se

Chapter: The Devil's RoseLucas finally stopped a few metres away from her. His eyes swept over Camille with undisguised disdain before a mocking smile appeared on his lips. "Who do you think you are to judge me, Vivienne?" he asked coldly. "You ain't even worthy of carrying my shoes." Camille stared at him for a moment. Then she rolled her eyes. "As if anyone would even be willing to carry the shoes you wear." Lucas's expression instantly darkened. Damn. This girl had far more guts than he'd expected. Most people became nervous the moment they heard the name Rodriguez. Some would flatter him, while others would immediately try to win his favour. But Vivienne Marcello? She wasn't even remotely intimidated. Instead, she seemed determined to annoy him. "You—" Before Lucas could finish, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind them. "What are the both of you doing here?" Stella. Her voice was filled with suspicion. The way she looked between Lucas and Camille made it seem as t

Chapter: A Lie Called VivienneChristian’s expression changed instantly. He stood up angrily.“Vivienne Marcello, where are your manners?”Camille laughed.Actually laughed.“Which manners do you expect from a girl who grew up away from her family without anyone to teach her?”Her eyes swept over him, almost as though she were looking at a room full of idiots.Bella quickly stepped forward and touched Christian’s arm.“Honey, don’t mind her. She’s young and probably doesn’t mean it.”“Nope. I meant it.”Camille’s answer came without the slightest hesitation.“Now, if you don’t mind, I’d like to know where I’m staying.”Before anyone could respond, her eyes shifted toward a maid standing quietly in the corner.The maid noticed her gaze and immediately approached.“Take me to my room.”There was no question in Camille’s voice.
