“Brother-“ “Don’t you ever…  call me ‘Brother’ again.” Chaster froze with Nathan’s words. He had thought hundreds of times that this will happen and yet, he was hurt and astonished by his response. How much more will it hurt him when he hears her response? “How awful. Is that how you greet your old friend?” He forced a smile as he clutched his fist, fighting back his tears. “What kind of friend leave in times of need?” Nathan’s word struck him. It hurts, but it is the truth. “I’m sorry. But you don’t understand.” “Then make me understand!” He exclaimed. He then clenched his jaw and breathed deeply. “I told you to take care of her, yet you hurt her.” He calmed himself, holding back his first from throwing to Chaster’s face. Chater bit his lower lips. “Do you think it is easy for me? For the past five years I blamed myself. If only I knew my father and Amber’s father’s plan, then I had warned you. But I was too late, Nathan. I tried

The whole ride was once again filled with silence. After they crossed the border, two helicopters arrived to fetch them. Everyone is asleep except for Nathan and Ashriel. Her eyes were tired, asking to get some rest as well. But her mind refused to. Who would have dared to attack them in broad daylight?  Nathan studied her face. Her eyes are looking outside the window, but her mind is flying somewhere else. Her arms crossed against her chest as she sat straight. Her face was drawn with exhaustion. She signed deeply, then sighed again. Her head was about to fall, but Nathan caught her and gently placed her head on his lap. “Sleep for a while. We still have two hours to travel.” Nathan gently stroked her hair, and without any objection, she curled up on her side and closed her tired eyes. Nathan leaned closer to kiss her forehead when he suddenly remembered Chaster. What will happen now that he’s back? After a few hours of travel, they reach the first border of th

“Use my car and get your butt off here. Mom and Oriana are waiting for you.” Olive chuckled and tossed her keys to Leon, tapping his shoulders, and jogged to catch up with Ashriel, who is now outside the meeting room.             Leon hurriedly went to the parking area and drove back to the restaurant. As the servants opened the door, her mother’s smiley face and a sleeping Oriana greeted him. Her body was covered with a blanket, and her face rested on the table while his mother calmly took a sip from her wine glass.             “She just drank one glass. I didn’t know her tolerance was that weak.” She laughed softly. “Take her to the villa, or do you want me to ask the servants to carry her back?”             “I’ll do it myself, Mom. You should have sent her to the villa without waiting for me if you planned on asking the servants.” She just shrugged her

Oriana woke up alone in the bed. Realizing she was in Leon’s room, she hurriedly fixed the bed and left. After eating breakfast, she went beside the lake as per instruction. She sat at the stone bench and observed the lake that shone as the sun spread its lights towards it.            Besides, I can’t keep myself safe when I am with you.            “What do those words mean?” she asked herself.            “What words?” Her heart almost jumped out of her ribs when she saw Olive sitting beside her. “What’s with the face?”             “L-lady Olive?! Since when did you sit beside me?” She asked her hand on her chest.            “Just a moment ago. You seemed lost in your thoughts. Are you thinking about my twin?” She grinned mischievously. Oriana felt heat rising on her cheeks. 

“After that night, I became her secretary.” Olive giggled and chummed her sandwich.           “That was the first time all of us ate together and enjoyed each other’s company.” Xieaniel laughed and put his chin on top of Olive’s head. “Her Highness used to smile and frequently laugh back then.” He drew a deep sigh.           “I admire her a lot. All of us do.” Olive released a deep breath.           “She carried a heavyweight on her shoulders at such a young age. As the Leader, she has the responsibility to take care of thousands of members, including us. She doesn’t show it, but she doesn’t want to lose anyone. Pressure… She has to feel that every day. That’s what she went through to become who she is now.” She clos
