"Good morning, babe," the moment I woke up and opened my eyes, I immediately saw Sylus' smiling face in front of me.

I quickly averted my gaze from him the moment I recalled what happened last night between the two of us.

"M-Morning," I replied, pulling the blanket up to cover my body as if Sylus didn't see it all night long.

I heard him chuckle. "It's too early in the morning to be blushing like that, babe."

My eyes widened as I put my hands on my face. "I-I'm not blushing..."

    "Good morning, babe," the moment I woke up and opened my eyes, I immediately saw Sylus' smiling face in front of me. I quickly averted my gaze from him the moment I recalled what happened last night between the two of us. "M-Morning," I replied, pulling the blanket up to cover my body as if Sylus didn't see it all night long. I heard him chuckle. "It's too early in the morning to be blushing like that, babe." My eyes widened as I put my hands on my face. "I-I'm not blushing..." "Yes, you are. Looks like you remember what happened last night, huh?" "O-Of course, not..." "It's alright, babe. I can still remember it, too. And I want it to remain in my mind all year long." I glared at him. "S-Sylus!" "The breakfast is already served, babe. Let's go downstairs already." "I-I will take a bath first." "We can do that later." "W-What?" He looked at me nonchalantly, "We can take a bath together later. You can just put on any clothes then have our breakfast first bef

    Slowly, I moved my face close to Sylus. He was just staring back at me, waiting for my next steps. I could feel my heart beating so fast as I stood on my toes and put both of my hands on his shoulders before I closed my eyes and pressed my lips against his. Sylus's lips were warm, firm, and tasted like whiskey and desire. He didn't move at first, like he was letting me lead. Then his arms wrapped around me, pulling me closer. The kiss was deep, hungry, like we were both starving for it. I felt like I was losing myself in him, in the taste of his lips, in the way he was holding me like I'd disappear if he let go. He pushed me back onto the bed, his body over mine. The kiss didn't break, like we were both afraid to breathe. I felt the weight of him, the heat of his skin through the thin shirt he wore. My heart was pounding so loud I was sure he'd hear it. Sylus's lips left mine, trailed down my neck. I felt shivers, like my whole body was alive. "Charlotte," he whispered,

    The clock ticked past 2 AM. The suite was quiet, except for the soft hum of Sylus's laptop in the office room. I was lying in bed, pretending to sleep, but my eyes were fixed on the door. Finally, the office door opened. Sylus came out, looking exhausted but focused. He headed straight to the bathroom without looking at me. I heard the sound of water running, then the rustle of clothes. Sylus came out of the bathroom, wearing just a towel around his waist. He walked to the closet, his back to me. I decided to try talking to him. "Sylus?" I said, my voice soft. He didn't turn around. "Hmm?" he replied, his tone neutral. I sat up in bed, feeling a spark of frustration. "Can we talk?" I asked. Sylus pulled on a pair of sweatpants, still not looking at me. "Not now, Charlotte. I'm tired." I felt a sting. He was still avoiding me. I lay back down, trying to process things. But I wasn't going to let it go that easily. A few minutes passed. Sylus got into bed, careful not

    Carmine's POVI let out a deep sigh as soon as Sylus stepped out of our room. I still can't forget what he just told me. He said he was really suspicious of me. He even told me we would go back to my doctor to ask about the things that he is being suspicious about.Now I have to think of a better excuse for him not to go to a different doctor. If he does that, for sure I'm doomed."How did he find out about you going to a bar?" Luke asked me over the phone. Ever since he found out about my plan and real motive, Luke Greene became the one I always call whenever Sylus does something that would make him find out about my plan."He surely hired a private investigator for it. He is a mafia boss, it's not impossible for him to do that.""You're right. Then you have to be extra careful. Sylus is smart, and he always wants to get what he wants. Make sure you never let your guard down."I nodded my head as if Luke could actually see me. "I understand.""Also, you have to delete every conversa

    I leaned back in my chair, sipping my coffee as I watched Charlotte walk into the dining hall. She looked like a ray of sunshine, her smile bright and carefree. But I knew better. I knew she was hiding something.I'd been suspicious for a while, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. That was until I got the call from the private investigator I'd hired to dig into Charlotte's whereabouts for the past few weeks. I learned she always go to this apartment where an old lady resides at. But it was the phone that really caught my attention. The one she claimed she lost at the restaurant where they celebrated their parents' anniversary. I had my doubts, so I asked my assistant to check the restaurant's CCTV footage. And what I found out was that Charlotte didn't even lose her phone there.I felt a pang of disappointment, mixed with curiosity. What was she hiding? And why?I decided to dig deeper, to see if I could find any leads on where she might have actually lost the phone. I asked my

    I woke up to an empty bed, the sheets beside me cold and rumpled. I sat up, rubbing my eyes, and looked around the room. No sign of Sylus. I wondered where he could be. I got out of bed and quickly got dressed, deciding to grab some breakfast downstairs. Maybe Sylus was waiting for me in the dining hall. As I walked into the hotel's dining hall, I spotted Sylus sitting at a table by the window, talking to someone on his phone. He glanced up, saw me, and his expression turned cold. He looked away, focusing back on his conversation. I felt a pang of confusion. What was wrong? I walked over to the buffet, grabbing some pastries and coffee, trying to look nonchalant. As I made my way to the table, Sylus ended his call and looked up at me. His eyes were guarded, and he didn't smile like he usually did. "Morning," I said, trying to sound cheerful as I sat down across from him. Sylus nodded, his expression neutral. "Morning." The tension was palpable, and I didn't like it. What
