The next morning, Paulina’s head throbbed like it had been cracked open. To make matters worse, her eyes were so puffy she barely recognized herself in the mirror. And as if the hangover and swelling weren’t enough, the memory of last night’s phone call came crashing back, souring her mood the moment she opened her eyes.

Still, no matter how much she didn’t want to, she had no choice—she had to go back home today.

Her so-called mother had a knack for hitting exactly where it hurt, and Paulina knew if she didn’t go, they’d show up on her doorstep and strip away the last bit of dignity she was clinging to.

Miriam, her mother, was like their hometown: old-fashioned, emotionally distant, and cut off from the rest of the world. Even after getting off the high-speed train, Paulina would still need to take a taxi and then walk a good distance to reach the village tucked away in the middle of nowhere.

    Early in the morning, when Naomi's phone rang, she was still sound asleep in Atlas's arms. It turned out that someone had been too much last night.Atlas smiled as he looked at the woman still fast asleep. He kissed her forehead. "Sleep, I'll answer."Naomi mumbled and turned her head, continuing to sleep.Atlas got out of bed, pulled out his phone, and before he could say anything, he heard a shrill scream from the other end, which immediately darkened his face."This is Atlas."On the other end, Miley never expected the call to be picked up by Atlas. She was stunned, as if a demon had gripped her throat, unsure of what to say.Atlas, on the other hand, was unbothered, his face cold. "Say, what's the matter? She's still sleeping."Both of them knew who he was referring to. Miley was stunned. Could this man really be so persistent? Even though it was morning, he still hadn’t let Naomi go.But she didn’t dare to say

    “My marriage is my own business. Are you still dreaming of ancient times when parents decided everything for their children? What a joke! The 50,000 is already the highest I can give.”With that, Paulina turned and walked away, not wanting to stay in this place for another second.But she was still grabbed by Miriam’s hand. “You unfilial child! You think you can just leave? How could things be so easy? If you want to leave, don't say you’ll call the police! I’ll call the police now and say you're unfilial! Let’s see who the police will lock up.”“Yeah, mom, she’s definitely got a lot more money. Hurry up and get it from her,” Patrick said with an expression that said he was fearless.“Stupid girl, hurry up and get the money!”Paulina sneered: “I see you won’t stop until you hit rock bottom.”She took out her phone from her bag, pressed a couple of

    When Miley heard those familiar words, she became even more certain—it had to be a dream. Bertrand always spoke to her like this in dreams, gentle and distant, as if she really were just his little niece.But in real life, she could never get close to him. So why should she hold back even in a dream?Suddenly, Miley yanked him toward her. Bertrand, already on edge because she wasn’t wearing much under the blanket, was completely caught off guard. He stumbled and fell forward, landing right above her. His arms shot out just in time, bracing on either side of her.

Perhaps it was because of the familiar scent, the little woman even cozily rubbed against the man’s chest and then fell asleep peacefully.Bertrand: “...”Once she wakes up, he'll definitely teach her a lesson.Helpless, Bertrand could only pick her up, and the driver, who had been waiting, quickly opened the car door for him.Still in the bar, Benny cautiously saw Miley being carried away by his brother, and he finally sighed in relief.
