It didn’t take a while, only around fifteen minutes when Crystal finally finished a sample draft she was making.       While she drew, Angelica was watching with deep concentration greatly engraved onto her face. Her eyes calculated every single stroke that Crystal made, and it was surreal, it wasn’t just some random strokes with a pencil lead that any normal people could do but this one was filled with class and elegance. As if the strokes of a pure artist, she eagerly watched to see the outcome of the said draft as she basically leaned over the table to observe the woman’s ministrations.       “And… Done!” Crystal smiled in glee before placing the pencil down and presenting her work to Angelica whom was eagerly

          “Such balance and contrast, a very nice design indeed, Ms. Buenaventura, as expected of the Buenaventura family.” Harold Valencia praised, smiling in satisfaction.       Janice smiled upon hearing compliments of her ‘work’ as she took a bow in respect along with muttering a small ‘thank you’ to those who commends her.        But to Crystal, she was boiling angry. Not only did the pesky woman stole her design, she even dares accept commendations and compliments over something she did not work hard for. The feeling of having her intellectual property stolen, her heart beating rapidly against her chest as the vile taste of disgust made her throat dry and sour. Her work created for someone sp

        After an hour’s worth of chatting, the three of them dispersed into their own rooms to rest. The day has been hectic and very long, resting is the very best option they have.       As Crystal walked back to her room, the place was quiet and peaceful, her maid must’ve left after doing some housekeeping, not to bother Crystal any longer.        Crystal sighed and grabbed a towel, preparing herself for a well-deserved bath wherein the tub was already filled and scented oils were waiting for her. She slowly stripped herself free from the restraining clothes, feeling the dirt and grime on her body just badly needs to be removed from sitting on the grass.      After so, she lowered herself

           That morning, it was noticeably quiet and peaceful. For the first time since she’s been here, this is the only time that she felt comfortable in letting her guard down after so long. They weren’t subjected to any tasks and Crystal’s design was already chosen for the project due to some… problems with Lylia’s and Mylene’s designs.       Crystal knew that the two girls did it on purpose, but she’s not in any position to judge nor question. It’s their decision after all.        She shook her head and decided to wander around the villa, not needing to sneak around anymore since she was given permission to go anywhere as she’d like as long as she’s not le

          It was hours later after Crystal’s profound discovery. She hasn’t found the exact information that she wanted but what luck did she had when she was given another kind of information that not only shakes her right down to the core but also, the type of information to just destroy everything that she once believed in. the information right in front of her was real, it was legitimate information but a little bit of hope from inside her just keeps on nagging her to believe that the Boss and this Harry Valencia guy are two different people. But a voice inside her head just constantly convinces her that they are the same person. Since, why else would her Boss be so desperate to finish Harold Valencia off? And if that was true, then there’s a possibility that Harold didn’t kill her brother, her Boss might have used that as reason to turn her into his knife
