"It's the second autumn, Ji... can you hear me? The fallen leaves have already turned into piles of snow, and you still haven't shown your face." -Mike-

***

Venice, Italy, a year later...

"Stay away, don't get too close to the window."

The deep, distinctive baritone voice caught the attention of a young woman wrapped in a blanket, standing and watching the boats passing by along the canal. The woman turned around, greeted the man wrapped in a towel, kissed him briefly, and wrapped her arms around his waist to lean against his slightly damp chest.

“What are you afraid of? Will those people follow us here?” the woman asked, stepping back to gaze at the man she loved, standing tall and still in her embrace.

“Do you think they can follow us?” Instead of answering, the man asked back. The woman shook her head. “I just don’t want anyone to see you. Not even your silhouette.”

The man cupped his hands around the woman’s face, gazing at hmomentarily features for a moment to savor the beauty

Unfortunately, such things only happen on camera, in the favorite shows of teenagers. Showing the perfect family life that would never happen in Meredith's life.Zack, their father, never agreed to sit at the same table with her. No one knew why the middle-aged man hated an innocent girl like Meredith so much. She had to accept the reality of being an outcast. But before she was born, didn’t they remember the process filled with love, mutual consent?If not, none of this would have happened. Without love, she wouldn’t have been born, even if she was eventually abandoned, so Vivian saved her and hid that big secret from Mike for so long just to preserve the reputation of the ruler of Eastonville’s dark corner.“Don’t

    "This time I'm working with Cupid to play with you so you'll learn your lesson. Never get involved with any woman other than me, or I'll disturb your peace, Mike Genosie." -Jiji-***Angie didn't expect Mike to chase after her, nor did she expect Jordan to. However, what happened was the opposite of what she expected. She wouldn't be surprised by that. It was just that when Jordan then grabbed and felt Angie's waist down to her thigh like a police officer checking a criminal, she began to resist."What the hell is this? Let me go, J!” Angie snapped as she pushed Jordan, who had found what he was looking for and quickly pulled it from the holster attached to Angie’s thigh.He lifted the object—a Desert Eagle similar to Mike’s, only a different color.“You’re carrying this. Why not point it at him, huh? He’s already humiliated you in front of me.”“Should I? I don’t even feel ashamed,” Angie replied casually as she put the gun back under her skirt after successfully taking it from Jor

    "Maybe my love is just a joke to you, so you can easily leave and never think of coming back. Do you think after all this, I'll let you go, Little Bunny? I told you, run to hell, you'll see me waiting for you at the gate." -Mike-***Angie stormed into Jimmy's room and slammed her hand on the table while her brother was concentrating on checking some documents. He looked up and just frowned in response to his sister's mood this time.What else was the problem? Jimmy had given her freedom and allowed her to roam wherever she wanted as long as she didn't leave their residence, but suddenly she came in with a red face and threw a piece of paper right at his face.Jimmy picked up each sheet of paper scattered on the floor, remaining calm, reading each line carefully, then frowned. “What kind of joke is this?”“Don’t play dumb, Jim. You know exactly what’s in that file and what I’m trying to talk about now.” Angie didn’t explain much of her thoughts because she only saw the writing on

    You have given me something that I can’t live without But I don’t want to carry on like everything is fine Love You in The Dark – Adele *** Meredith returned to the locked room. She didn’t understand why Mike had locked her in a room that clearly had a large window through which she could easily escape. It was impossible that Mike hadn't thought of that. He was a man full of tactics. Even when visiting a restaurant, he would think about many things, such as the menu, taste, and ingredients, as if he were a chef and nutritionist. Mike entered the room and found Meredith sitting relaxed while enjoying the food provided by the waiter. She ate heartily, in contrast to when she was in the other country. Nothing suited his taste buds. "I thought you were thinking of running away," Mike teased, to which Meredith responded with a shrug. "It seems you're still a loyal member." Of course, unless Mike knew what was going on behind his back. Meredith wasn't that good, and Mike wasn't someon

    "Am I naive, or are you too much of a bastard for me to love, Mike?" -Jiji-***Mike wasn't the only descendant of the Genosie family; he had known that for a long time. However, the only daughter with the same last name as him was the result of her father's failure to be a faithful man, so he didn't want anyone to know. He had known Meredith since childhood and thought they were cousins until everything was revealed after Mike felt so deeply for the girl.Over the past two years, specifically since Angie appeared and then left, Meredith returned from her education abroad and found her brother in shambles. Without Mike knowing, there was a deep-seated grudge in her heart, so she vowed to do anything to avenge her pain, as well as her brother’s.Meredith was a medical worker, on the front lines in every situation, even within the organization. Unfortunately, no one knew she was an imposter—she was part of two organizations with different objectives. No one knew her intentions for joi

    "If you still doubt my love, ask yourself, have you been faithful and tried to find me? Or have you let two autumns pass you by, Jiji?" -Mike-***"Mike, I have good news," said a young woman who had just entered the room, facing a man behind the desk. He rested his chin on his hand as he waited for the ten-year-old girl below him to speak. His feelings were all over the place, so he didn't want to say too much. "Why are you silent? Is there a problem? Or... did I make a mistake?"“Did you make a mistake, you say? You didn’t realize it?” Mike asked coldly, but there was a clear firmness in his tone.“I don’t understand.”“Have you become stupid now? Jiji is with them and she saw me with you. You must know it." Mike grabbed his Desert Eagle and pointed it at the young woman, who immediately raised both hands in the air. "You know my weakness, so you tried to play me. Is that it? If it weren't for this damn wheelchair, you'd be dead without saying a word.""B-but, Mike... how can you
