ログインAfter a few seconds of Mr. V scanning around their hideout, his brow furrowed slightly. The surroundings were quiet, with only the blowing of the wind to be heard. “Maybe it was just a cat that made that loud crash outside. Let’s continue our conversation so we can leave right away,” Mr. V said seriously, glancing at the four women who seemed to be holding back the nervousness in their chests. “Leave right away?!” Ivony responded almost shouting. Her brow was furrowed, but the way she was sitting showed she didn't care about the world—her legs spread wide apart as if she weren't a woman, but rather a man used to engaging in combat. Mr. V looked at her, his gaze sharp and piercing. “Miss Ivony Cruz! If you refuse to act like a woman, just leave. Because if you act even worse now like you used to—” “Oooopppsss! Mr. V, don’t bring up the past anymore!” Ivony quickly cut in, her expression instantly shifting from a tough stance to that of a serious young lady. She lowered one of her t
“All of them are here,” Mr. V said softly as he approached their group. His voice carried a mix of excitement and gravity, as if he had been waiting for this moment for a long time. He gazed at each of them, then smiled gently. “You’ve all grown even more beautiful,” he added, full of admiration and sincerity. Yet when his eyes landed on Ivony, his world seemed to stop. He paused for a moment, his brow slowly furrowing. Deep in his mind, an uncontrollable irritation flowed. “You still haven’t changed at all, Ivony! It’s a waste of your beauty if you remain like a woman with no self-respect, judging by your actions and attire,” he muttered firmly to himself, mixed with disappointment. Meanwhile, Ivony could not hide her intense excitement. Ever since she heard Mr. V’s name, she had been like an eager child longing to meet the long-awaited person. Her eyes sparkled and her heart beat fast as Mr. V slowly approached. But that excitement suddenly came to a halt when she was met by a co
“Everyone is here,” Mr. V said softly as he approached their group. His voice carried a mix of excitement and gravity, as though he had been waiting for this moment for a very long time. He looked at each of them before smiling gently. “All of you have grown even more beautiful,” he added, full of admiration and sincerity. However, when his eyes landed on Ivony, his world seemed to stop. He paused for a moment, and his forehead slowly furrowed. Deep inside his mind, an uncontrollable annoyance flowed. “You still haven’t changed at all, Ivony! It’s such a waste of your beauty if you remain a woman who lacks self-respect, judging by your actions and how you dress,” he muttered firmly to himself, a mix of disappointment in his voice. Meanwhile, Ivony could not hide her intense excitement. Ever since she heard Mr. V’s name, she had been like an eager child longing to meet the one she had waited for so long. Her eyes sparkled and her heart beat fast as Mr. V slowly walked closer. But th
“Who could that woman be?” Roxiel whispered to himself, gripping the strap of his bag tightly. He could not get Steffie’s gaze and the words she had spoken out of his mind. “How did she know our surname? Could it be that Clairox is the one she’s really looking for—my twin?” He let out a quiet sigh before slowly nodding, as if regretting something. “Shit… I only remembered now.” His heart felt heavy as he walked toward his motorcycle, ready to leave the school and escape the questions clouding his mind. The cold breeze in the parking area seemed to share his uneasiness, whistling between the parked vehicles as the afternoon sky gradually darkened. But before he could even start the engine, an unexpected scene caught him off guard. Four women arrived at the parking area together. Their presence immediately drew attention. They were elegantly dressed, carried themselves with confidence, and every step they took exuded beauty and authority. The voices of several students nearby fell si
After the final ring of the bell signaling the end of the exam, Roxiel quickly gathered his things. He wasted no time—stuffing his pen and papers into his bag, slinging it over his shoulder, and almost rushing out of the classroom. He could still feel the pressure from the difficult test weighing on him, so the only thing on his mind was getting away and finally breathing freely. “Hey, wait for me!” his twin brother, Clairox, called out while running after him, clutching his own bag whose zipper was nearly coming undone. But before they could completely leave the corridor, a voice suddenly called out, cutting through the quiet atmosphere. “Mr. Villar? The Auction Boy bodyguard?” The twins instantly turned around. From the side of the hallway, a beautiful young woman approached them—fair-skinned, graceful, and clearly from a wealthy background. Her long hair perfectly matched her expensive and elegant outfit, immediately drawing the attention of the remaining students nearby. Roxi
I need to finish this exam. I can’t answer my phone even if I know Mr. Clifford is calling, Roxiel whispered to himself as he forced his attention back to the test paper. He could feel the weight of every passing second, especially knowing how important that call was—but passing this final examination mattered even more to him right now. For a brief moment, he glanced at his twin brother, Clairox, who was seated several rows away. Their desks were separated, and each of their name tags was clearly displayed so their classmates and professors would not confuse them. Roxiel noticed the slight furrow in Clairox’s brows, as if he were carefully observing his every move. Suddenly— Vrrrrttt… vrrrrttt… The faint vibration of Roxiel’s cellphone echoed from beneath his desk. In the silence of the classroom, the sound felt as loud as thunder. Roxiel flinched, and several classmates nearly jumped in surprise as they lifted their eyes from their exam papers. “Roxiel!” their supervisor shoute
The meeting at Vellamonte Corporation ended without even the slightest hint of a smile on Dark’s face. His jaw was tight, his brows drawn in deep frustration, and tension clung to his entire body. One by one, the board members left—people who both feared and respected the Vellamonte name—yet now,
Dark smiled at Roxane’s movements. There was a strange amusement blossoming in his chest as he watched her—clearly uneasy, yet trying so hard to keep her posture, even though her every gesture screamed how new she was to that kind of environment. He also noticed how all attention was drawn to his
“Well, well… looks like you’re having fun, huh?” A cold but meaningful voice suddenly sliced through the cheerful laughter of the two women. Roxane and Lyka instantly turned to the source—and their eyes widened in shock. “Sir Nathaniel…” they both said almost in unison, their voices laced with s
Meanwhile, outside the room, Dark spoke firmly to his mother. “Mama, what are you doing coming here without telling me?” “Son, you need to know—this is not a normal incident. The abduction of Roxane’s family carries threats. There was a helicopter. Armed men. This wasn’t done by ordinary people.”
