Alice

Several days had already passed since I arrived at Lance’s penthouse, yet the strange feeling of being inside his world still hadn’t completely faded.

A world far removed from the simple life I had always known.

Sometimes, when I woke up in the mornings and stepped out into the wide living area, I still had to remind myself that this place was real—that I was truly living here, even if only temporarily.

The penthouse in the MobTech building felt like a small kingdom at the very top of the

    AliceI never imagined that this day would arrive so quickly.Inside the bridal suite of the luxurious ballroom hotel where Lance and I were about to get married, I sat quietly in front of a large mirror while the stylist fixed the final details of my hair.The room was calm, almost peaceful, but faint sounds from outside occasionally slipped through the door—staff members moving around, voices giving instructions, the distant clatter of preparations happening in the reception hall.Through the wide window of the suite, I could see the bright morning sky. Below, on the garden terrace, the elegant glass aisle had already been set up for the ceremony.A hotel wedding.Before, I had imagined something much simpler. But Lance insisted that this day should be special for both of us.And he certainly didn’t fall short of that promise.The ballroom had been transformed into a scene from a fairy tale—white flowers everywhere, crystal chandeliers hanging from the high ceiling, and long receptio

    AliceI never imagined that the day I had been waiting for so long would feel like this.Inside the university auditorium, the graduating students sat in neat rows, all wearing the same black gowns and caps. Despite our uniform appearance, the emotions in the room were anything but identical.Some faces showed nervous anticipation.Others were filled with quiet excitement.And a few—like mine—carried a mixture of disbelief and overwhelming gratitude.The low murmur of students whispering drifted through the hall. From the audience seats came the soft conversations of proud families, the occasional laughter, and the rustling sound of programs being flipped through.At the front of the hall, the announcer’s voice echoed clearly through the microphone as one name after another was called.Each name represented years of effort.Years of sleepless nights.Years of dreams are slowly taking shape.As I waited for my turn, I glanced toward the audience and found my mother's eyesA small smile

    LanceSeveral weeks had passed since my life had completely changed direction.Everything had happened so quickly that sometimes it still felt unreal.My days were now filled with endless meetings, legal consultations, and long hours spent reviewing stacks of documents that seemed to multiply whenever a problem was uncovered.Piece by piece, the truth that had been buried inside the company for years was beginning to surface.What started as a family dispute had evolved into something far larger. This was no longer simply about personal conflict. It had become a full-scale corporate investigation.The legal team, along with members of the board, began a thorough examination of Richardson Foods' financial records. Every file, every transaction, every approval record was carefully reviewed.That was when the irregularities began to appear.Transactions that had bypassed proper authorization. Projects that had been approved without the board’s consent. Company funds had mysteriously move

    AliceSeveral days had already passed since I arrived at Lance’s penthouse, yet the strange feeling of being inside his world still hadn’t completely faded.A world far removed from the simple life I had always known.Sometimes, when I woke up in the mornings and stepped out into the wide living area, I still had to remind myself that this place was real—that I was truly living here, even if only temporarily.The penthouse in the MobTech building felt like a small kingdom at the very top of the city—vast, quiet, and surrounded by towering glass windows that overlooked the entire skyline.Everything about it spoke of power and influence. The polished marble floors reflected the morning light.The elegant furniture is arranged with perfect balance between luxury and comfort.The quiet hum of the city far below, almost distant, as if the world outside could never truly reach this place.In the morning, the sun would rise between the tall buildings, bathing the room in warm golden light.

    AliceI didn’t even realize how quickly the drive to the penthouse passed.All I knew was that during the entire ride, I couldn’t sit still. Even though the car's interior was quiet and traffic was unusually smooth, every minute still felt painfully slow.My mind kept replaying what Uncle Lemuel had told me.Lance was already at the penthouse, and he wanted me to be there.After everything that had happened—his sudden disappearance, the news spreading across the media, the press conference—I was finally going to see him again.I didn’t know what the first thing I would say to him would be.I didn’t know if I would hug him… or punch him out of frustration for disappearing for several days.But there was only one thing I was absolutely certain about.I wanted to see him and be with him.When the car finally stopped in front of the MobTech building, my heart began beating even faster.A few moments later, I was already inside the elevator that led directly to the penthouse.The elevator

    AliceMy body felt completely exhausted when I finally returned home from school that afternoon.To be honest, I barely understood anything from the lectures we had the entire day. No matter how hard I tried to focus on what my professors were saying, my mind kept drifting back to everything that had happened over the past few days.Lance’s disappearance and his sudden appearance at the press conference.And the words he said to me.I should have felt happy after hearing them.But how could I feel that way when I knew those words might have made his father furious… and that there was no telling what his father might do to him because of it?No matter how much I tried to trust Lance completely, the worry inside me refused to disappear.The news spreading across social media, the press conference we had watched—it all remained painfully clear in my memory.Even now, I could still hear the way he had said the word “baby” in front of everyone.Every time I remembered that moment, I couldn
