Celeste sat on the swing as Elliot Basset gently pushed her. From their garden, they could see the Alps in front of them. Beautiful daisies bloomed around the gazebo where Cecilia was seated.

The fresh spring breeze enveloped Celeste as she asked her Great-Grandpa, "More, Grampa!"

"Higher, hahahaha! Higher!!!"

Cecilia's Grandpa Elliot visited their new house the next day after they moved in. He bought the house with Celeste's safety and happiness in mind. She was just an innocent little kid who deserved the perfect world.

"Grampa, I'm thirthty~"

"Let's go to your Mommy."

Celeste's beautiful red dress bounced as she ran towards the gazebo. Her cute little steps kept up with Elliot's steady strides.

"Mommy, water~"

Cecilia handed Celeste's pink water bottle to let her drink up.

"Celeste, don't rush! The water is dripping!"

"Oh, see!" Cecilia muttered as water dripped down from Celeste's mouth. She wiped Celeste's face with a handkerchief, tidying her up. She then went to get a small

    On the sidewalk, Eon Eno was seated outside a cafe as he looked at cars passing by. “Sir, why not go around? We have received leads that Miss Cecilia is seen around this area.” “Very well, let’s go,” he rose from his seat, holding a cup of iced latte while his other hand tucked inside his black trench coat pocket. “Wait… Is that her?” He squinted his eyes, trying to make sure what he was seeing was positively Cecilia. A tall woman with curly auburn hair stood on the other side of the street. From the angle where Eon could see, her face seemed to be covered by her hair. She closed the sedan and disappeared into the streets. “No, no, no…” he muttered as his hastened steps chased after the mysterious woman. In a sea of blondes and brunettes, he struggled to see her beautiful red hair. Six whole years of searching for her, and this is the closest he has ever seen her. He was sure it was her. Hurried steps and ragged breathing, he anxiously searched for her in the crowd. “C

    "Mommy, why are we moving again?"The little girl with long curly brown hair sat on the car seat beside her mom, who is busy working on her laptop. “It’s because I found a beautiful house here for Celeste,” Cecilia answered her daughter, Celeste."Oh, why, Mommy? You don't like our house in Franth?"Cecilia could only force a smile, unable to answer her daughter. What happened to them is too complicated to explain to a five-year-old. Six years have passed, and they have never settled down. They are always on the move. And now, they are in their fifth country. With the help of Matthias, she got in contact with her maternal grandfather, Elliot Basset, who also cut her off because of her involvement with the Millers. He did not like how she chose to stay with the Millers after her whole family died. Despite telling Cecilia about how much he disliked the Miller family, she blindly defended them. He already has suspicions about what the old woman from the Miller family wanted from Car

    "Ugh..." Cecilia groaned as she felt a splitting headache as soon as she opened her eyes. Sun rays seeped through the curtains of the spacious hotel room. Her whole body ached so much that lifting her hands hurt. She could feel a heavy arm resting on her waist. 'It was a man's arm!' She thought, panicking about what had happened. But she noticed that the arm is not fat and hairy but muscular. She breathed a sigh of relief. 'At least he's not fat and old...'She turned around, only to see a beautiful face, peacefully sleeping with its head resting on her pillow. His tall nose, thick brows, and chiseled jawline made him look like a figure straight out of a museum. 'So handsome...''I guess it was okay to give him my first...''But he looks so familiar... I think I know this man...'She squinted her eyes, deep in thought, as she studied the face of the man embracing her. Then, a realization struck her mind. "Eon?" she called out to confirm her suspicions. "Ceci, sleep some more..

    Warning R18 content ahead!"Mr. Ridley said to guard his room. Should we?" Cecilia heard from a distance. It was a familiar voice; she realized that it was the same man who had pulled her earlier. Before she passed out, she remembered that they covered her nose and mouth. 'Shit... I cannot let them see me!'Thinking of this, she saw that the hotel room door across from her was not fully closed. She did not hesitate and crawled inside with all her might. No matter how ridiculous she looked, she did not mind it. With her remaining strength, she kicked the door to close it. She then reached the lock of the door and turned it to double-lock the room. "Oh, what? Why is Mr. Ridley's door open?""Sir, do you want us to close your door?""CLOSE IT!""Okay, sir.""Damn, I thought he was with Miss Eldritch; it's Miss Ellen!""Really? You saw?""Yeah, bro! She was under him, and he was kissing her whole body!""I wanna see, bro!""Shh, Mr. Ridley will get mad, bro.""Dang, who knew a supermo

    "Lia will be back in a few minutes, Mr. Eno. Why don't you sit here for a while?" Ellen suggested. Eon's lips thinned. He relented and sat on Cecilia's chair. He touched Cecilia's purse that had been left behind and kept it with him. Meanwhile, Ellen sent a quick text message: [Cecilia is out now, get her now.][And give me that glass. Now.]"Would you like a glass of wine, Miss?" a waiter asked. Ellen got one and immediately offered it to Eon Eno, "Mr. Eno, would you like to have a glass of wine while waiting for Lia?"Eon calmly accepted the glass of wine but had not drunk it yet. "Mr. Eno, I heard you were looking for a model for your new project. Have you picked a model yet?"Eon shook his head, seemingly distracted and on the lookout for Cecilia to come back. "I'm interested, Mr. Eno. Do you have any Go-See schedules I can attend?""I'm not particular with the details. Why don't you contact the person in charge? I'm sure your agent can find that for you.""Oh! Hahaha, I will
