Geraldine’s Point of View

We walked in silence, my footsteps trailing after Sir Kenzo’s. I couldn’t help but feel excitement bubble in my chest at the thought of finally stepping inside the library. Books! Endless shelves of stories, wisdom, and knowledge. It was like a dream for me.

Suddenly, his deep voice broke the silence.

“True wisdom is not measured by how much you know, but by your ability to grow and learn from what you do not know. Tell me, what does that mean?”

I nearly stumbled. Seriously? He’s testing me with a deep quote while we’re walking? My mind spun as I analyzed his words carefully. After a few moments of thought, I finally spoke.

“That quote emphasizes that genuine learning goes beyond simply collecting knowledge. True wisdom lies in recognizing the limits of what you know and being open to growth through new experiences. It highlights humility—because acknowledging what you don’t know creates space for self-improvement and discovery.”

  • Phantom Syndicate: Undercover Wife To The Mafia Trillionaire   Chapter 86

    Geraldine’s Point of ViewWe were already inside the car.I leaned back against the seat, staring out the window, my thoughts tangled. I could not tell if Mike was slowly changing… or if he was quietly investigating who I really was. Either way, it made my chest feel tight.We were not heading straight home. He said we were going to eat outside first. I did not know where exactly. All I knew was that food was involved, and honestly, I was already hungry.Then something suddenly crossed my mind.“Mike…”He frowned the moment I called his name.“Wife,” he corrected calmly. “You seem to have forgotten what you’re supposed to call me.”I swallowed hard.“I said hubby,” I quickly defended myself.“What is it?” he asked.Just like that, his face softened again. It was strange how fast he could shift emotions. One moment strict, the next completely calm.I looked ahead. Thankfully, t

    Geraldine’s Point of ViewI was completely caught off guard by what Mike did next.He wrapped his arms around me tightly, as if there were no tomorrow, as if the world might end if he let go. His face was buried against my neck, his embrace firm and desperate, like he was afraid I would disappear if he loosened his grip even just a little.My body stiffened in shock.“Okay, bro, I’ll head out first,” Rafayel said casually. “I’ll drive your car.”I watched him walk toward Mike’s car, my eyes following him until he finally drove away, leaving the two of us alone at the top of the mountain.Why was this man still hugging me like this?“Mike…” I called softly.“I’m so sorry, wife.”I froze.Sorry?He slowly lifted his head and looked at me. Our eyes met, and something in his gaze made my chest tighten. I instinctively looked away, unable to hold his stare.“W Why are you apologizi

    Third Person’s Point of ViewMike was about to chase after Geraldine.He had just come from the garden, having stopped Justine before any destruction could even begin. Not a single rose had been touched yet. Still, the damage had already been done somewhere far deeper than the soil.His chest tightened painfully as the memory replayed in his mind. The way Geraldine had looked at him earlier. Empty. Detached. As if he were nothing more than a stranger standing in her way. And when she pulled her hand away from his grasp, the motion had been sharp, final, almost resentful.It struck him then that maybe, just maybe, he had made the wrong decision.The garden clearly meant something to his wife. He saw it now, far too late. The place where she found peace. The place where her thoughts softened. And he had threatened to erase it without hesitation.Manang’s voice suddenly echoed in his mind.A memory surfaced.Flashb

    Geraldine’s Point of ViewI froze where I stood, staring at Mike in disbelief. A sharp thought struck me all at once. Was he jealous because of Justine? That was ridiculous. Justine was innocent. She had done nothing wrong, and I would never allow anyone to bully or blame her for something she did not deserve.And honestly, the timing could not have been worse. I was already irritated with him after he had the nerve to call me stupid earlier. The word still echoed in my head, stinging more than it should have.“Why are you here?” he asked coldly.I immediately stood up and walked toward him, forcing myself to look composed. His face showed no emotion at all, but his eyes dropped to my hand. I realized too late that the bandage was visible. Instinctively, I hid my hand behind my back.“What happened to your hand?” he demanded. “And why was she holding your hand?”His gaze shifted, and I followed it. My heart sank when I saw the first aid kit nearby. He noticed it too. Damn it.He reach

    Geraldine’s Point of View – English VersionI was standing in the garden, breathing in the fresh scent of flowers. The place was beautiful, quiet, and fragrant enough to wipe away the stress I had been carrying since morning.My eyes drifted toward a rose in full bloom. It was stunning, the kind of beauty that could easily deceive anyone. A single touch and it could wound you without warning.Still, I reached for it. Not just touched it, but let one of the thorns pierce through my skin. A sting, a prick, then a thin line of blood slowly appeared.I sighed while staring at the wound. It did not hurt. I had grown used to far worse.“Madame!”I looked up and saw a man running toward me. Judging from his uniform, he was the gardener, and he carried a small planting tool with him.“Madame, your hand. It is bleeding. I will get the first aid kit.”As he stepped closer, a familiar scent drifted into the air. I knew tha

    Geraldine’s Point of View – English VersionI held my shoulder while I stretched on the balcony, trying to ease the soreness from yesterday’s workout. Inside the room, I could hear the shower running. He was still bathing.“Wow, same position until morning? No wonder my body feels like this. My shoulder hurts so much.”Maybe yesterday’s exercise really got back at me.I peeked down at the garden below and saw the assassin I tied last night now awake. Several bodyguards stood guard around him, already questioning what happened and who he was.My eyes landed on the vial of poison I took from him. It was the same type I had encountered before. This poison was lethal. One small taste and death would arrive in seconds. It was dangerous and unpredictable, a tool only useful when handled with extreme caution.I slipped it into my wallet and looked toward the apple tree. There were fruits hanging low, just within reach if I stretched a l
