LOGINDianaMy eyes blinked slowly as I processed his words. When I finally took the paper bag, I could see a set of black clothes inside.“Sir… this…”I was honestly confused about accepting it. From the brand printed on the paper bag, I could tell it wasn’t cheap—it was expensive, and it made me hesitate.“Don’t refuse it.”His words felt like he could read my mind. I paused for a moment, then finally nodded.Because of that woman spilling a drink on me, my clothes were soaked, and what was supposed to be a pleasant outing had turned into a mess.“Thank you, Sir, for your help.”Sir Miles raised his hand slightly. “This is compensation for the trouble that happened in this café.”I knew compensation was usually given when the café was at fault. In truth, I felt like I should be the one paying for damages—but seeing his expression, I chose not to argue.At least… it made my day a little better.“You should change right away.”Startled again by his words, I looked at him, then down at the p
DianaActually, I was about to leave. It had drawn too much attention, and that made me feel a little uneasy.It’s true—I want to become a better version of myself. Maybe after that confrontation with that shameless woman, after she was finally thrown out of the café, I should feel proud… and at peace.But it’s not that simple.I still feel doubt. I still get anxious, especially when I become the center of attention.What happened in the past has left a mark on my subconscious. Maybe people will talk about this, saying all kinds of things with their wild assumptions.“Diana, aren’t you going to drink?” Sir Miles’ voice startled me.I shifted my gaze to the cold drink in front of me. He had brought me back here—we were now sitting together in a VIP room.I knew he was doing this to help me calm down… maybe even to comfort me after what had just happened.‘How pitiful…’‘This woman is always surrounded by trouble…’Maybe that’s what he had been thinking all along. And honestly… I couldn
DianaMy anger surged as I looked at her. My hand moved quickly, grabbing the cake in front of me and throwing it straight at Paula’s face.For the first time, I had the courage.I was protecting my dignity—protecting the part of myself she had hurt all this time. Staying silent was no longer enough for me.The one who truly had no shame was Paula. I swear, when I saw her on Samuel’s bed, half-naked, she was absolutely disgusting.“What are you doing!?” she shouted, quickly wiping the cake cream off her face.“Obviously, returning your favor,” I replied calmly.Some of the people who witnessed what happened nodded, as if supporting my actions.“How dare you. You really are a shameless woman,” she continued her nonsense.I let out a breath. Back then, I never understood why she hated me—but now, I realized it was never my fault. That hatred came from within herself.A faint smirk appeared on my face as I realized something else. And when I spoke again, my tone carried clear disdain.“I
DianaI was quite surprised by the cold look in Sir Miles’ eyes. I knew he rarely showed much expression, but when he bumped into my male coworker earlier, his expression had been extremely cold.It made me feel uncomfortable, but then again, it was very crowded at the time—something like that could happen.At that moment, watching him walk away, I felt a little disappointed in myself for not stopping him. Maybe we could have talked.My actions were shameless. I was even starting to feel comfort toward a man who was my boss. Maybe it was just my ego being satisfied… or a way to console myself.When people are hurt, they try to distract themselves with something else. Realizing that I was in that position made me feel truly ashamed.As I got off the bus, I let out a breath again and roughly combed my hair back with my fingers.“I shouldn’t be like this.”I warned myself.My world and Sir Miles’ world are completely different—and that would only lead to my downfall again.The most impor
SamuelOf course, in life, people look for what benefits them the most.I liked Diana. For the past four years, she had been the woman I was dating. When we first met, she was helping me after my leg was injured from being hit by a car.I thought it was such an incredible encounter—I couldn’t forget it. Diana took care of me until my family finally showed up. Back then, I realized how innocent she was. Even after I returned to my family, I couldn’t forget her.During that time, I looked into her background. She worked at a small company, handled many tasks, and struggled just to survive because she had no family.What I did was confess my feelings to her. She didn’t accept me right away—until one day, during the rain, I fell sick and she took care of me again. Yes, in that weakened state, Diana finally accepted my confession.At first, our relationship felt wonderful. But later, I realized things were becoming more complicated.I mean, Diana had no idea about many of the things I was
Miles“Sir, are you going to throw that away?”The moment I heard what Eric said, I immediately shot him a sharp look.The faint smile on my face disappeared—I hadn’t expected him to say that.My brows furrowed as I clicked my tongue. “What do you mean?”I took off the glasses I was wearing. In truth, I didn’t even need them—I had only changed my style and a few other things to hide the fact that I was Miles Monclair.“Usually, sir doesn’t like eating food from others or accepting gifts.”Eric wasn’t wrong. But right now, I had no intention of getting rid of the food and coffee Diana gave me.Honestly, I’m not a picky eater who only consumes things from high-end places. Growing up with Mom, especially during the times she struggled, I learned to eat whatever was available.What often bothers me isn’t the food, it’s people disturbing my time.“No need. I’ll eat it.”“Really, sir?”He made me let out a heavy sigh. “Do you want it?”I saw his eyes tremble, he was clearly startled by what
Dylan“Dylan, are you okay?” Maria held my arm quite tightly.When I came back to my senses, I looked at her again. The worried expression on her face made me reach out and touch her hand.“I’m fine.”The man who had been talking with her earlier had already left. I didn’t need to think about what
Cassandra“I heard the story from Cillian, Sandra.”She quickened her steps slightly so she could look directly at my face.“Why didn’t you tell me about it?”Erica looked so radiant when she talked about the dinner I had with Cillian. Damn, I didn’t expect that man to be such a chatterbox. He even
SebastianI could feel my heart beating wildly with panic as I fell onto her body; my body responded the moment it touched hers. I wouldn’t lie— even my lower parts had tensed.Cassandra, she really had no idea what she was doing. I wanted to ignore this, to leave immediately because she was drunk.
Cillian“I’ve already met her. The woman whose photo I used to see so often in your room.”I had just arrived at Erica’s house, but my good mood immediately vanished after hearing Stella’s words.I stared at her. She still looked relaxed, as if everything were under her control.“That woman is actu
