Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov

Since Miracle will be here early, I woke up earlier than usual. I don’t want her to wait outside my house because she will surely hiss at me since we had an agreement last night.

That is why when I saw her car arrive in front of my house, I immediately got down to open the gate for them to take inside everything they bought for me even though I still hadn't washed my face.

“I thought you would wake up early?” She raised her eyebrows and looked at me from head to toe. It is obvious that you just got up in bed.” She also pointed at my hair.

She was with Saki and Sari, the twins that work in my store, who helped me with stocking my groceries and supplies for our product. This is some kind of part-time job for them since Miracle couldn’t handle getting all the things that I need alone.

I smiled and slowly fixed my hair. “Well, this is earlier than usual,” I said. “And you arrived earlier than what you used to do.”

We both turned our heads to my neighbor’s lot and were amazed when we saw that they already built the foundation of the house.

“Woah,” I said. “I couldn’t believe they were quick to work.”

They just arrived yesterday morning yet they already made huge progress on their construction. They got to dig deeper for the septic tank and place the pillars for every corner of the house that they are building.

“I think they are rushing that house,” Miracle said and pushed me inside my house. “Was the man who talked to you last night there?”

I shrugged my shoulders. “I don’t know. I haven’t seen him since that time he introduced himself.” I signal the twins to take the boxes they brought inside. Well, they already know where to put those so I just let them inside.

“Oh.” She nodded. We went straight to the kitchen and started preparing breakfast.

“Did you already know who bought the lot next to mine?” I asked.

“Yeah,” she answered while making our coffee. “I talked to the real estate agency and they told me that the one who bought the land is someone named Caspian Jyn.”

My eyes widened. “A Jyn?”

She sighed. “Not just a Jyn, Asper,” she said. “It was Caspian Jyn. He will be your neighbor together with his friends that also work for him.”

Caspian Jyn is famous around the country. He is the chief executive officer and owner of the famous and largest restaurant chain in the Hexoria Kingdom.

And every restaurant under Jyn Food Corporation has already received the highest Michelin star because they can really compete with each of their dishes around the world.

Their chefs are world-class and their service is really admired by all of their customers who always come back to dine with them.

Aside from that, they not only serve their world-class dishes to high-profile people, but they also serve food that middle-class and lower-class people can afford. They also have charity support and JFC once donated a huge amount of money to my foundation that covers the whole construction of one of our buildings.

Though he is famous, I never had a chance to see his face because he always refused to take an interview in every media. And everyone who dares to take a picture of him is always getting sued.

“Though, you don’t really have to worry about him or his friends,” she said. “They have no interest in politics and they were often out of the country so he might not have recognized you. You had your disguise and made sure to wear that all the time just to make sure. As long as they won’t see your natural eye color, they will never know that you are part of the Dahlia Clan.”

Every legitimate member of the Dahlia Clan has unique physical traits and that is one of the things that may be used to recognize us. Aside from our gray eyes, we also have natural blonde hair.

And I had to wear brown contact lenses and dye my hair black just to cover all of it. I also put a hair extension to make my hair longer than it should be. To complete my disguise, I wear fake braces on my teeth and fake freckles on my face.

Total makeovers to ensure that no one will recognize me whenever I go out.

“Then, Rajiv Fleisko is someone close to Mister Jyn,” I said. “I think he was in charge of the construction yesterday.”

“Possible. Anyway, you have nothing to worry about, okay? Just don’t forget to wear your disguise. “ she repeated.

“Okay.”

Well, I should be really careful about that because, with one wrong move, Dad or those people who want to get rid of me might get a lead to where I am hiding.

I finished my breakfast first and stood up.”Just take the order that needs to be delivered today to my fridge.” I pointed to my refrigerator where I put the products that I made. “And wait for me. I need to go out and buy my toiletries.”

I buy my own toiletries and other personal stuff. I don’t let others do that for me.

I immediately went upstairs and took a quick shower. Though I had a hard time shampooing my hair because of its length. I also put conditioner on it to avoid getting tangled and to maintain its color since I don’t want to keep putting hair color on it.

It might damage my hair even more and I don’t want that to happen. Like duh? Hair is one of the most important parts of a woman's body. Taking care of it makes us feel more beautiful.

Once I am done, I blow dry my hair and get dressed. I just wore a simple white T-shirt, faded jeans and flat shoes. I applied light face powder and lipgloss, then put fake freckles on my face using an eyebrow pencil and wore my fake brace.

“Are you not done yet?” Miracle shouted. “We are leaving!”

“Wait!” I shouted back. “I am coming!”

And when I got satisfied with everything, I grabbed my bag and ran downstairs where Miracle was waiting for me.

“Let’s go!”

    Caspian Jyn’s Pov“Something is wrong,” Rajiv said after his phone call and turned to me. “They are all acting weird.”I frowned. “Who?”“Lucky and the rest of Asper’s bodyguards,” he answered. “I don’t know what but Asper has been acting weird ever since she met Reina at Yain City.”I leaned my back in my chair’s backrest and looked at him. “What makes you think that they are acting weird?”“Asper changed, Jyn,” he said. “For the whole year that we haven’t seen her, she changed a lot. She is no longer the type to just stay on the side, keep quiet, and do nothing.”“You think they will cover for her if she is doing something without our knowledge?”He shrugged his shoulders. “I don’t know how Asper thinks now and the caporegime that we assigned to her are all afraid and loyal to you,” he said. “But I still can’t shake the feeling that Asper is doing something.”I know what he is trying to say because I also felt that way.“Pull out the last batch of security details that we sent there

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“I already transferred the foundation to my sister,” I repeated. “My lawyer finished taking care of the paperwork last year and it was finalized last week. The foundation is now formally owned by Aasiyah.”Shock was still all over his face after I explained that.Aasiyah will hold a press conference about this to publicly announce the transfer. It was scheduled for next week but since there are still threats to her safety because of me, they might reschedule it once Dad formed new security details for her.I frowned when I saw the concern on Hector’s face as if I made a huge mistake.“Aasiyah took over the foundation when I left our home two years ago,” I continued. “And because of what I have to do, I decided to completely let it go. And Aasiyah decided to shoulder everything since she fell in love working there.”“You…” He cupped his forehead and sat on the floor. I don’t know what his problem is but he is acting as if it was big news for him.And it is not

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“You are really out of your mind, Asper,” Hector shook his head after I told him what I did to Jyn’s men who were assigned as my bodyguards. “You used yourself just to hold them in the neck.”“I only have myself, okay?” I said. “I can only take advantage of Jyn’s feelings for me to make them what I want.”He shook his head again and continued bathing the horse. “You like taking advantage of everything around you to make sure that every situation will side with you.”We are in the horse stable right now. He is working while I am sitting in the corner.“Don’t talk to me about taking advantage of things, Hector. You have done worse than what I am doing right now.” I rolled my eyes. He talked like he never abused his position as the crown prince to get what he wanted before.He looked at me and pointed to himself. “I am trying to change myself for the better, right?” He pointed at me. “But you? It seems like you are changing your path.”“Well, I am entering the wo

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s PovI received a warm welcome from the original workers of the farm. I have known most of them since they started working here when Granny was still alive. Some of them were hired by me when I started handling things around here and there were new ones that Dad hired to help Judith with the work in the mansion.And of course, Hector, who immediately got along with the people here. They know that he is the former crown prince but it seems like it doesn’t matter to them. They might be treating him as a normal person but they are all nice to him.Which is good since we never know how long he will be working here.Since I let him choose what work he wanted to do here, he chose to take care of the horses we have here. Maybe because he is already familiar with that since they have been taking care of horses in the palace. And he often joins horseback tournaments so he knows how to handle one.After taking care of things around the changes that will happen around the far

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“Sorry, Dad.” That is all I can say to my father who I was talking to through Lucky’s phone right now. I am standing in an abandoned port while staring at our helicopter that was burning down through the sky. “I am still not sure about how much money I have right now but I will try to buy a new one for you.”I heard Dad sigh. “Don’t worry about that. I already had plans to buy a new one for myself and give that to your brother.”“Oh.” I scratched my head. “Now, I feel even more bad. Helicopters are the easiest mode of transportation that he can use to go to Yain City without neglecting his job here at Ilore City.”“But you are okay, right?” Dad asked. “It is good that you noticed the problem in the helicopter sooner than later.”“Maybe I was getting sharper when it comes to danger.” Ever since I learned about the Rioghail, Dad made sure to train me every day. Not just some self-defense techniques, but also about the things that I should be looking around me th
