The rich aroma of chicken broth filled the spacious kitchen of the luxury apartment. Rebecca stood by the stove, stirring a creamy homemade chicken soup—Samuel’s favorite. Her hands moved with ease and familiarity.

Every now and then, she’d taste the broth and add a dash of pepper.

One of the housemaids walked by and smiled wide when she saw Rebecca. “Ma’am, it feels like I’m dreaming, seeing you here cooking the Master’s favorite soup.”

Rebecca turned and let out a soft chuckle. “Don’t call me Ma’am. I’m not your master’s wife. Just call me Rebecca.”

“Oh, but you’ll always be Mr. Samuel’s wife to us,” another maid chimed in, walking in with a basket of vegetables.

“Five years ago, Mr. Samuel kept asking us to cook the dishes you used to make, Miss Rebecca. But none of us could get it right,” the older maid added.

“He even got mad when we tried using rec

    Dinner finally ended a little past nine. Rebecca dabbed her lips with a napkin, smiling politely, although her mind was far from calm. Throughout the entire meal, Mr. Zasco hadn’t mentioned anything about the project or the one-trillion investment she was hoping for.“Thank you for the dinner, Sir,” said Rebecca as they stepped out of the hotel restaurant and headed toward the parking lot.“You’re welcome. I hope you enjoyed tonight,” replied Zasco while opening his car door.“Quite different from what I imagined,” Rebecca muttered as she got into the car.Zasco chuckled lightly. “Sometimes, the unplanned things turn out to be the most memorable.”The car moved slowly, leaving the hotel. Inside, Rebecca gazed out the window. The city lights blurred, clouded by her busy thoughts. Meanwhile, Zasco seemed relaxed behind the wheel.“Where do you live?” asked Zasco, breaking the silence.“In a housing complex near the main road. I’m just renting a house temporarily for now,” Rebecca answer

    Ten minutes past twelve in the afternoon, “Please, have a seat,” said the middle-aged man, inviting Nora into his small practice room.Nora entered carefully, making sure the door was tightly closed. She wore the same mask and hat as before. The wounds on her face looked worse today.“Thank you for agreeing to meet me today, Doctor,” Nora said softly.“No problem. I’ve seen the photos,” the doctor replied while picking up a folder containing printed images of Karin’s face. “This is the face you want to use as a reference, right?”Nora nodded. “Yes. I want it to look as similar as possible.”The doctor looked closely at Nora’s face, which was covered in bruises and scratches. “The injuries are quite severe. You said this was an accident?”“Yes, Doctor. I fell off a motorcycle last week. Hit the asphalt pretty hard,” Nora answered quickly.“In that case, we need to examine the skin tissue and bone structure around the cheeks, jaw, and nose. If there are fractures, we’ll have to realign

    Nora dragged Karin’s body out of the small house. The sea breeze hit her face, now covered in scratches and bruises. She wore a large jacket, covering her face with a mask and a hat. There was no sound except for the wind and the steps of her feet on the muddy ground.“Sorry, Kar…” she whispered. “But I have to do this.”She placed Karin’s body, already wrapped in a tarp, into the trunk of an old car she had borrowed from a neighbor. After making sure the road was empty, she started the engine and drove toward a small port usually used by fishermen.There, Nora waited a moment until no one was around. She dragged the tarp to the end of the pier, took a deep breath, and pushed it into the sea.Karin’s body slowly sank, then disappeared into the dark water.Nora stood still for a few moments, frozen in place. Then she turned around and walked back to the car. From time to time, she checked the rearview mirror, as if to make sure no one

    That morning, Rebecca looked at Reno, who was sitting calmly in the back seat of the car. The boy stared out the window, his hair neatly combed, and his kindergarten uniform spotless.“Reno,” Rebecca said with a gentle smile.Reno turned to her. “Yes, Mom?”“Before you get out, Mommy just wants to remind you… stay like the other kids in your class. Don’t tell anyone about you being a genius.”Reno nodded in understanding. “Okay, Mom. I will always obey and remember that.”Rebecca ruffled Reno’s hair. “Alright.”The car stopped in front of the school.“Have a good day at school, sweetheart. Mommy will pick you up this afternoon.”“Bye, Mommy!” Reno waved, then ran toward the school gate.Rebecca watched him until he fully entered the building. She took a short breath before getting back into the car. Kevin sat in the front seat, ready to drive her to the office.“Straight to Castillo Corp, Ms. R

    Rebecca was still sitting at the side of the bed, holding Samuel’s cold hand. Her eyes were swollen, but she didn’t let go of his hand.Suddenly, Samuel’s fingers moved slightly.Rebecca froze. She blinked, making sure it wasn’t just a hallucination. But the movement felt real. Very real.“Samuel...?” she whispered softly.The fingers moved again, very slightly, but enough to be felt in her hand. Rebecca gasped. Her tears were still falling, but now she smiled.“Samuel! You hear me, don’t you?! Please! Doctor! Doctor...” Rebecca shouted in panic as she ran to the door.Seconds later, a doctor and two nurses rushed in. Behind them, Wanna and Sindy also entered the room.“What happened?” Sindy asked worriedly.“Samuel’s fingers moved!” Rebecca shouted, pointing at Samuel’s hand. “I’m sure he’s conscious! He just moved his fingers!”The doctor immediately approached and began examining Samuel using th

    The downtown restaurant was quiet enough for a business lunch. Its modern interior, with wood and glass accents, created a professional yet relaxed atmosphere. Rebecca sat in the corner of the room with Kevin, waiting for their important guest to arrive.Rebecca stared at the glass of mineral water in front of her. Her right hand trembled slightly.“I’ve never done a business meeting like this before, Kevin. This is a one-trillion investment. If it fails, we could lose a huge opportunity.”Kevin smiled calmly.“Just stay calm, Ms. Rebecca. I’ll assist as much as I can. Besides, this is only the initial meeting. The presentation isn't today.”Rebecca nodded slowly. She took a deep breath, trying to steady herself.Soon after, a man in an elegant black suit and luxury watch walked into the restaurant. His face was cold and firm. Flanked by two assistants, he still stood out as the center of attention.Kevin leaned closer and whispered,“That’s him. Mr. Zasco, the second son of the Barna
