Cassandra

I didn’t expect to fall asleep, but I woke up to the sound of knocking on the door, rubbing my eyes slowly.

While yawning, I heard the voice of the person knocking on my room.

“Ma’am, young master Miles is calling for you.”

I immediately got up when I heard what Genna said, slowly glancing at the clock on the small table beside my bed. It was still late afternoon.

I opened the door and saw Genna’s calm face, which let me know nothing bad had happened to Miles.

“Thank you, Genna.” I wa

    Miles“Miles, what are you going to do tonight?”I shifted my gaze from my laptop to Tucker. He had come and sat casually in front of me with his woman. It didn’t interest me at all.“I’m meeting Dylan—Dad.”I looked away again, quickly saving my work properly before closing my laptop.When I looked back at Tucker, I saw him urging his girlfriend to move elsewhere. He still remembered that I didn’t like other people overhearing our conversations.Then Tucker adjusted his sitting position. “I was planning to invite you, but unfortunately, I can’t.”I felt a bit pleased that he still remembered my preferences. Our friendship was indeed very close—we were practically like brothers.“Yeah, that’s true. Besides, I don’t get to meet Dylan—Dad very often.”By keeping up with him, I knew how many cases he handled. He took on a lot of dangerous ones—sometimes even life-threatening—and that had happened to my mom as well.“Miles, I want to introduce you to a woman.”I raised an eyebrow. “Aria?”

    MilesLately, I’ve been extremely busy, but I received information from Eric about Diana—the woman who has recently made me feel sympathetic toward her.The moment I looked at the information Eric provided, my expression hardened. What happened to her felt so similar to what my mom went through, and it stirred something emotional in me.I couldn’t help but imagine her going through the same thing—being abandoned, forgotten, and left to suffer the most.Even the child in Diana’s womb didn’t survive. I had already felt something was off back then, and it turned out she really was in a terrible situation.I took a breath. That was exactly why I couldn’t take my attention off her. I felt uneasy, worried that she might act like my mom once did… when she had thoughts of ending her life.I knew she had been seeing a psychologist and looking for a new place to live. And just because I was worried, I ended up involving myself in her affairs.I even paid people to keep a close eye on Diana.“Si

    DianaI blinked as I looked at the salary I had just received, then checked the notification on my phone again.“$15,000? Is this for real?”My mouth was still slightly open as I read it. I knew I got this job because of my experience, but I had always been told that my abilities were just average.I mean, neither Paula, Samuel, nor anyone else had ever praised my skills, even when I completed tasks quickly. All this time, I had even thought my abilities were something to be ashamed of.I fell silent for a moment. But the salary I had just received was undeniably huge.“All this time, I only got $3,000, and that was often deducted.”I paused again, thinking about how I used to believe that was already a big amount. There were always excuses for deductions, so the pay I received was often even lower than that.I smiled. “If I can become a division head, would the salary be even higher than this?”“Wow!” I marveled to myself.This was the first time I had ever received such a large sala

    DianaI raised my hand awkwardly. “No, Sir.”I didn’t know what my boss wanted, but honestly, no one would want to spend more time with their boss after working hard all day. I’d even heard rumors that his assistant, Eric, never got a day off at all.This would be a problem if it turned out I still had to work after this.“I’ll take you home.”Once again, he said it like that, as if he hadn’t heard what I said before. It was like he wasn’t giving me a chance to refuse.Looking at him, I felt incredibly uncomfortable. I clenched my hands slowly, thinking I couldn’t afford to make a mistake—like appearing ungrateful after he had helped me.In the end, I nodded. “Yes, Sir.”He didn’t say anything after that, and I sat beside him awkwardly. There was no conversation between us, only the sound of my increasingly rapid heartbeat and my wish for this ride to end.“What’s your address?”I opened my mouth in brief surprise, only then realizing that I hadn’t told him at all.“Green Lake 1, Sir.

    DianaI prepared myself, taking several deep breaths as I tried to calm down. As I looked at my reflection in the mirror, I made sure my appearance was good enough.It had been five days since I lost my child—and since that man told me I was accepted to work here. Yet, I hadn’t received any message.Honestly, I was starting to doubt whether his offer still applied to me. I felt like I had wasted too much time, even though I was still dealing with the lingering pain in my stomach.I kept trying to make myself look strong.Aside from his kindness, I was also shocked that he had paid for the expensive hospital bill so easily.I mean, I hadn’t even started working for him, and I was still a stranger. But maybe I could repay the hospital costs by having it deducted from my salary here.I straightened my clothes again while taking a deep breath.“I can’t just sit around like this. I need to go in.”Yes, it’s better to act than to do nothing. So I stepped into the company building. Feeling a

    DianaWaking up on the bed in the flat I rented, I slowly steadied my breathing. Ever since I lost the child in my womb, I felt an overwhelming sense of helplessness.Often, I felt an emptiness so deep that it held me back from doing anything.I was truly heartbroken over losing the child I wanted. I might hate the father, but not my child.Everything I did felt meaningless.After eating and drinking just enough, I threw myself back onto the bed, staring weakly at the ceiling.I knew I couldn’t keep going like this—drowning in these chaotic emotions while the people who ruined my life continued living theirs just fine.My hand unconsciously moved to my stomach again.“Now you’re gone.”I sighed wearily, completely drained from the emotional shock I’d been through.It had been four days, but I still remembered what that man said. He looked young, yet he was already a CEO. He seemed cold, but at the same time, I could feel his concern.“I’ll wait for you…”His words echoed in my mind aga

    CassandraFor four days now, I’ve been meeting the same people: Sebastian and Cillian.These meetings, which felt so coincidental, made me anxious. For some reason, meeting Cillian was becoming increasingly frightening for me.I tried to stay calm, especially since he had helped me when I was strug

    SebastianI removed the man’s hand from Cassandra and examined her.What happened to her that she came home with that man? Was she hurt?I didn’t want anything to happen to her; I didn’t want anything bad to make her suffer even more. Without realizing it, I immediately felt a wave of guilt. The su

Even after seeing me and hearing what I said, he still couldn’t accept it and instead tried to turn me into the v

It was incredibly irritating how those bastards attacked me personally once the trial was over.Liza held my hand; she had been watching me the whole time because she was worried.“Miss, don’t listen to what they said.”I nodded slowly.
