Louis had relentlessly pursued Vivian, and today he invited her to dine at his restaurant, treating it as their first official date. Vivian felt she no longer needed to deceive herself and accepted his invitation. The restaurant, situated high above the bustling streets, offered a magnificent view that heightened the allure of the night. Vivian wore a beautiful blue dress, radiating a gentle and classic beauty that captivated Louis. She gradually let her guard down in his presence. As they savoured their meticulously prepared meal, Louis couldn't take his eyes off Vivian, enticed by her captivating beauty. The soft glow of candlelight illuminated her features, casting a warm and inviting aura around her. His eyes reflected a mixture of admiration and affection.

Luna entered Louis' office, her heart racing with anticipation and excitement. She had meticulously planned this encounter, determined to seduce Louis and further her ambitions. Her eyes scanned the room, craving the power and luxury that filled the space. She dreamed of the day when this would all be hers."Mr. Morris," Luna spoke, her voice laced with a hint of seduction. "I wanted to talk to you about something... important."Louis looked up from his desk, his expression icy and distant. "What is it, Luna?"Luna approached his desk, subtly leaning in, her gaze fixed. "I... I have developed feelings for you, Mr. Morris. I find myself inexplicably drawn to you."Louis' gaze hardened, and he reclined in his chair, his tone firm. "Luna, I thought we had an understanding. I have helped you because of your family's loyalty and service, not because of any personal entanglements. Perhaps I must reconsider your position here if you cannot maintain professionalism."Luna feigned fear, her ey
After Louis discovered Luna's attempts to sabotage his relationship with Vivian, he immediately fired Luna from her position. However, out of respect for her father, he arranged for her to have a new job. Luna was seething with anger and resentment, unable to accept that Louis valued Vivian so much. She managed to find Vivian's house, her face contorted with fury and bitterness, but she fought to regain her composure. She stood there, waiting for Vivian to return home, and the tension in the air grew palpable as the two women locked eyes. "So, you're the one who convinced him to fire me, aren't you?" Luna began, continuing to play the victim."Not at all! Did you want to meet me just to discuss this?" Vivian was equally unyielding. Luna's true face began to surface, and her voice filled with anger. "You think you're so clever, don't you? Do you think I lost this game?"Vivian remained calm, her expression resolute yet composed. "Luna, I don't understand what you're talking about.

The sun's rays illuminated the serene beach, warming the picturesque setting of Brian Evans and Amanda Green's wedding. It was the most beautiful beach in the country, precisely what Amanda had envisioned for her special day. Soft music filled the air, creating an ambiance of tranquility as delicate silk drapes adorned the reception tables. However, amidst her own wedding, Amanda felt a lack of power. She couldn't help but feel like an outsider within her own family. With no influence or talent to contribute to her family's standing, her only role was to marry Brian Evans, solidifying an economic partnership between their prominent families. As Amanda walked down the aisle, a forced smile graced her lips. She tried to appear joyful on her wedding day, but her eyes betrayed a tinge of melancholy. She knew that Brian held no affection for her and regarded this marriage as a mere mockery. Brian, the groom, stood at the altar coldly and indifferently. His eyes showed no emotion as he l
Vivian stood at the airport, patiently awaiting Kristen's arrival, her closest confidante. They hadn't seen each other in months since Kristen left to pursue her studies in France, missing out on Brian's wedding.

After that, Vivian and Kristen entered their favorite café, going to the counter to place their orders."What can I get for you ladies?" the barista asked with a friendly smile. True to her usual choice, Vivian replied, "I'll have an iced latte with extra milk, please!" Kristen pondered momentarily before deciding, "I'll go with a hot chocolate, thank you." After a short wait, the barista handed them their drinks, and they settled into a quiet

Luna intended to use Olivia as a pawn in her continued quest to harm Vivian."Olivia, you have no idea just how cunning Vivian can be," Luna whispered, her voice brimming with resolve. "She deceives everyone into believing that she has succeeded through her talent. But the truth is, she owes everything to Louis."Olivia listened with a mix of scepticism and intrigue. While she disliked Vivian, she also knew Luna's greedy nature. "Why do you think that?" Olivia asked, cautious of Luna's motivations.Luna relished the opportunity to sow seeds of doubt and satisfy her envy. She continued, her words dripping with disdain, "I used to have a secret relationship with Louis. I have pictu
