“Taylah… Taylah… tsk… tsk… tsk. Because of you, I gave up my identity, my face—even my body. How can you have everything when I have nothing?”

Her eyes darkened, filled with hatred. She had already set things in motion through Sam, and she was certain it would work within a few days.

A few days later…

Sam insisted, going against his father, to keep Briga as his secretary. Most of the time, he didn’t even let her work.

    Taylah was packing her things, her face clouded with sadness. It had only been a month, yet she already had to deal with this new position—one created exclusively for her. To learn directly from the current CEO of the company. Assistant Executive Officer… how ironic. She had told Laurence not to do anything with her position but here we are, Laurence being Laurence did a whole powerful thing. “Will you be okay, Taylah?” Felix asked. Taylah nodded, taking a deep breath. She even asked those questions to herself, Will she be okay? God knows, whether she will be or not. “Honestly… I don’t know. I’m just scared. I never wanted power or authority.” “It’s okay, Taylah. Everything will be fine.” Aryan tried to cheer her up. Meanwhile, Charlie jumped in between them. “Don’t forget about us, okay? We’re your sweet teammates.” “Of course not. To be honest, you guys never treated me like an outcast. I’m really grateful for that.” “I think you use the word grateful a bit too often. Come

She had already set things in motion through Sam, and she was certain it would work within a few days.A few days later…Sam insisted, going against his father, to keep Briga as his secretary. Most of the time, he didn’t even let her work.She had the perfect pawn in her hands, yet she still burned with jealousy toward Taylah, who had struggled all her life. The vengeance and wicked thoughts festering in her heart consumed her, slowly dragging her into something far more vicious.“Today, we have a meeting scheduled with the Davier company, but they’ve only given us one hour.”Briga said this while looking at Sam for an answer. She had never expected Arjan to be the one who initiated the meeting—and for an unknown reason.“I didn’t arrange the meeting. It’s up to them whether they want an hour or two.”Sam

    Somewhere in the city…“Briga, are you there?” Sam entered the bedroom, calling out a woman’s name.“Sam, you’re here, baby.” A girl who looked exactly like Taylah rushed out and hugged Sam Lancaster, the young master of the Lancaster family.Sam Lancaster, one of the most eligible bachelors in the city, was known for his image as an obedient and well-mannered man. However, he was never truly recognized in the business world, as he wasn’t much of a business tycoon like the others.Briga pulled away from the hug and helped him take off his tie, while Sam gently tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear.“So, how was your day? Are you bored? Should we go out?” he asked softly, pecking her cheek.“I’m not bored at all. I’m fine staying at home, as long as I get to wait for you,” she said, turning her head with a forced, unpleasant smile.If nothing had happened to my face, why the hell would I stick with this loser? she thought.Briga Morris aka Dia wore a mask to hide her true identity

    Laughter burst out around them as Ivano shook his head helplessly, watching Taylah giggle like a carefree child with a group of teenage girls on the sidewalk. She had already downed quite a bit of alcohol, no matter how many times he had tried to stop her. “Taylah, stop.” He gently caught her hand and pulled her away. “Sorry, girls,” he said, apologizing as he led her away. It was already midnight when they finally stepped out of the bar, after all the chaos she had stirred inside. “Let me have some fun.” “It’s my fault for bringing you here and for a first-timer, you held up quite well.” “Because I’m a strong woman.” “Yeah, yeah, I know. Now, can we go home?” Taylah nodded, then gently slipped her hand out of his and walked beside him, keeping a small distance. The weather had turned cold, biting through her spine. She felt her body stiffen against the chill. Ivano took off his coat and wrapped it around her like a cocoon. Taylah made a pouty face, making him let out a low

    The place felt unusually fancy to Taylah. She had been to places like this before, yet today it felt different, almost enthralling. Nonsense, she told herself. Why should she feel excited? When she arrived, Ivano was already there, waiting. “Am I late?” Her voice trembled, though she masked it with a forced smile. “I’m early.” For a moment, neither of them spoke. Ivano might have been playing a game with her, while Taylah remained completely unaware of how his gaze bore into her. It wasn’t a dirty gaze. He wanted to claim her, to keep her hidden away from the rest of the world. “That—” “Do you—” They both spoke at the same time. “You first,” Ivano said, catching Taylah off guard. His voice, once softer in the past was now deeper, rougher, sending a strange shiver through her. “It’s you… Ivan, right? We met at the market.” A faint smile tugged at his lips. “Finally… you remembered.” Ivano kept staring at her, making her uneasy. She fidgeted with her fingers under his gaze.

    Aryan and Taylah reached Credence City early in the morning. Aryan seemed more tired than usual and refused to explain why.They went to the branch office and wrote a letter for the NOC—fucking childish. Even though the HR department at the branch had already been informed about their visit, they still went on about all the procedures required to take the vendor contracts to the headquarters.“NOC, shit… for these useless documents.” Aryan splashed water on his face and wiped it off.“I think they want us to wait. I didn’t bring spare clothes in case we have to stay here.”Aryan glanced at Taylah and nodded.They both settled at an outdoor café and tried to relax. After a brief silence, Taylah decided to bring up what had been bothering her since yesterday.“Did you guys do something… and they’re targeting you?” she asked.Aryan let out a heavy sigh. “It’s a long story.”“And we’ve got plenty of time,” Taylah said, shrugging just as their coffee was served.Coffee and a bit of gossip,

    “Do you know Ivano? The guy who talked to me just now?” Taylah asked, glancing at Zane, who was lazily leaning back in his seat. Leon was driving them, and they were already halfway to Taylah’s apartment. “Oh, that e-sports guy? He’s from Credance City. He runs a huge e-sports company, and he’s b

    Taylah could see it for what it truly was, the gathering of power in one place, disguised as generosity. “Are you bored, Taylah?” Zane asked, balanced his chin, staring at her. “I thought it was obvious at some point… and you just took a moment to realise it.” Taylah frowned. "You know about hi

    Taylah genuinely enjoyed the dinner with her coworkers. The trio was lively, and Felix had a hard time keeping them in check. As she spent time with them, she learned they had all studied at the same university, each a year apart. Somehow, their energy felt the same, and that was what kept them tog

    Morning didn’t feel new to Taylah. It should have. The sunlight slipped through the curtains, gentle, warm—soft and kind against the quiet room. But Taylah stood there for a long moment, staring at the half-packed box on her bed, her fingers resting along its edge. She glanced around, her chest t
