The sun had only just started to rise when Lillian slowly opened her eyes. She stretched with a soft yawn, only to realize she was still wrapped in Sebastian’s arms. His embrace was warm and secure, like a blanket of safety around her.

A gentle smile touched her lips as she turned to face him. His eyes were still shut, lips slightly parted, and his hair was a mess of sleepy curls. He looked so peaceful.

Leaning in, she kissed his cheek and whispered, “Wake up, sleepyhead.”

Sebastian let out a low groan. “Just five more minutes… unless you’re staying with me.”

Lillian giggled. “I wish I could. But I have a meeting in two hours, and I can’t be late.”

He finally opened his eyes and smiled lazily, brushing a hand against her cheek. “Then we better save time—let’s shower together.”

Lillian gasped playfully. “Hey, Mr. Man, isn’t it a bit too early for that?”

“Not at all,” Sebastian grinned and sat up. Before she could say another word, he scooped her into his arms and carried her toward the

    Rose and Daemon’s faces lit up the moment they saw Olivia. They had missed her more than words could describe.“We missed you,” Rose said, wrapping Olivia in a tight hug as if she had been gone for years.“I missed you too, Rose,” Olivia replied warmly.Just then, Mia stepped out of the hallway, rolled her eyes at them, and walked past without a word. Olivia noticed, but chose to ignore her.When Mia reached her room, she found several missed calls from Emily. A frown crept across her face. She had assumed Emily wouldn’t bother contacting her again, not after she had failed to complete the last trick she was asked to pull.But seeing those calls made her uneasy. Perhaps Emily had another job for her. She hesitated for a moment, then dialed Emily back.“Why didn’t you pick up my calls?” Emily’s sharp voice cut in as soon as the line connected.“I wasn’t with my phone. And please,” Mia lowered her voice, “be careful how you call me before someone finds out.”“Fine,” Emily snapped. “I wa

    Olivia had already packed her bag, ready to leave. The driver Lillian had sent to pick her up was waiting outside, the faint hum of the car engine reaching into the house.Abigail stood in front of her with a stubborn frown. "Sis, I don’t want you to go," she said, trying to keep her voice steady. She had enjoyed having Olivia home for the weekend, and now she just couldn’t bear to let her leave again."I’ll come home again," Olivia said softly, brushing a loose strand of hair from Abigail’s face. "Just take care of yourself and Dad, okay?""I’ll miss you so much," Abigail said, her voice dropping into a dramatic tone as she folded her arms, acting like a spoiled child."I’ll miss you too, Abigail. But I need to leave. The driver has been standing out there for a while now," Olivia replied, trying to smile even though she felt a small ache in her chest."Okay… bye. Love you," Abigail said, stepping forward to hug Olivia tightly before finally letting go."I love you too," Olivia whisp

    "Why? Why did she hate you that much?" Abigail asked Olivia, who had just finished narrating how Mia had been treating her."I don’t know… she just hates me for no reason," Olivia replied."That’s crazy, sis. I think you should report her to your boss," Abigail said.Olivia rolled her eyes at her sister. She knew Abigail was making a good point, but at the same time, she didn’t want to do that—she wasn’t sure if Lillian would believe her, especially since Mia had been working for her for so long."Don’t worry, I’ll be fine," Olivia said."Are you sure? Please, if you can’t take it anymore, just stop. I don’t want anything to happen to you, sis," Abigail said with a worried look.Olivia smiled at her little sister and playfully pinched her cheek. "I’ll be fine. Trust me.""So, apart from that witch, are you enjoying your stay there?" Abigail asked."Yes. Lillian is good and kind, and her husband Sebastian… their kids are so adorable," Olivia said."I’m getting used to the kids. I think

    Olivia carefully balanced the tray as she made her way toward the dining table where Rose and Daemon were seated, happily munching on their lunch.She was only a few steps away when her foot suddenly caught on the edge of the carpet."Ah!" Olivia gasped as she stumbled forward.The tray tilted dangerously, and before she could regain her balance, both cups of juice slipped, hit the floor, and spilled everywhere, the liquid spreading in a sticky orange pool across the marble tiles.Rose and Daemon gasped loudly, their eyes wide."Auntie Olivia, are you okay?!" Daemon exclaimed, standing up from his seat to help Olivia.Olivia bent down quickly, sighing in relief that neither of the kids had been splashed. "Oh no, I'm sorry kids.Yes I'm okay " she said, trying to laugh it off while reaching for a napkin from the table.Just then, Mia appeared out of nowhere, feigning shock. "What happened here?" she asked, her voice overly sweet, but her eyes were dark with irritation."I tripped on the

    “Hope he didn’t make you angry,” Sebastian asked as they drove home.“He wants me back in his life,” Lillian said simply.“Really?” Sebastian raised a brow. “Are you planning on saying yes to him?”He already knew what her answer would be—but he couldn't resist teasing her.Lillian, who had been staring out the window, turned to shoot him an angry glare before facing the window again, clearly irritated. The nerve! After everything Wilson and Emily had done to her, how could Sebastian even joke about that?“Come on, baby, I was just joking,” Sebastian said quickly, noticing she was upset.Lillian didn’t respond. She kept her eyes fixed outside.“Lillian, I’m sorry,” he said softly, reaching out to tuck a strand of her hair behind her ear so he could see her face. “Do you really think I’d let you go? I love you.”Lillian shifted away slightly, making him withdraw his hand.“Come on, I said I’m sorry,” he whispered, leaning in to place a gentle kiss on her cheek.“I’m really sorry, baby,

    It had been a few days since Olivia started working as a nanny at the Barker house. Mia’s attitude hadn’t changed one bit—she was still rude and always picking fights with Olivia. But Olivia stayed calm and never engaged. After all, she was there to work, not to quarrel.Aside from Mia’s odd behavior, Olivia was enjoying her job. The kids, Rose and Daemon, were sweet and respectful. She had expected them to be like most rich kids—spoiled and bratty—but to her surprise, they were always calm and cheerful.That morning, Olivia had just finished dressing the kids for school and brought them to the dining table for breakfast. As usual, Mia wasn’t doing anything but throwing sharp looks her way—but Olivia didn’t mind anymore."Aunt Olivia, I like you," Rose said. It was the millionth time she had said it—at this point, it had become a part of her daily routine.Olivia smiled and gently smoothed Rose’s hair. She really liked the little girl—she was just too sweet to be true.Lillian came do
