The meeting wrapped up in a flash.  Chase and his colleagues thoroughly went through all the agendas efficiently without wasting a second. His colleagues were aware of their boss' neediness so they cooperated with him peacefully.  After an hour, Chase entered his office looking extremely tired. He loosened his tie and slumped on the couch beside his wife. With his hands wrapped around her slim waist and his face buried on her neck, he murmured, “I missed you so much…” Rui snorted, “We were together just an hour ago, dumbass.” “I know… 1 hour felt like forever when I'm not with you…” Rui stifled laughter with her face flushed, she pinched Chase's arm.  “You're so cheesy, Engineer Eno!”

Gaia Hotel, Dixon City    The family of three entered the hotel elegantly. Their first few steps inside earned them lots of curious gazes. Chase, the dad, wore a black dress shirt and gray wool dress pants. Rui, the mom, wore a black wide-leg jumpsuit and red pumps that matched the color of her lips. Eon, the baby, wore a black dress shirt and gray pants just like his dad.  The family continued to the reserved private room without any regard to their surroundings.  Upon reaching the room, Eon excitedly ran towards Beatrice and jumped with his arms raised. “Grandma B!”  Beatrice then lifted the child and affectionately kissed his plump cheeks. “Oh my! My handsome Eon is so sweet~” Rui was

The couple went down to the hotel's restaurant to meet their son, Eon, and eat breakfast. And as soon as the little child saw his parents, he ran towards them.  “Mom! Grandma put sunscreen on my face again!” the little kid complained while pointing at his cheeks.  “I don't like it, mom! It's sticky! It's ew!” Rui sighed before tapping her husband to pick up their child.  “Eon, you're not the only one here. Don't shout,” she sternly warned.  “Sorry, mom… Can you please wipe the sunscreen off?” he meekly said before hugging his father's neck and burying his face on his shoulders. “Dad, help…” Chase just patted his son's back to appease him. “Eon, let's eat

Rui was preparing dinner when Chase arrived home. Seeing that Rui was busy cooking, he went straight to the kitchen. He snaked his arms around his wife's slender waist before kissing her forehead. “Hey, love.” Rui continued cooking. “Hmm. How's Eon?” “You won't ask how your husband is first?” Chase said with an aggrieved voice “No. My son first.” “Well, our son is happy to stay with grandpa. His teacher… Is it the exact same findings as the other victims?” “Yeah… The same… You know what's weird, my old married teacher was allegedly cheating with Miss Sy. And that teacher disappeared before her. He still wasn't found. I think there's a connection there. I checked the timeline of all the other victim's disappearances and t

Beatrice, Carter, Taylor, Eon, and Chase were all seated together in the VIP section. The show will be held in a massive garden at the back of Leila's atelier and showroom.  Clients who commission her see the whole process of dressmaking in the atelier. Plus they can also enjoy the beautiful view in the garden whenever they visit her atelier.  At this moment, dazzling lights lit the runway, and gentle harp music enchanted the guests. All the attention of the guests is now on the runway in front of them.  One model emerged from the atelier, walking down the stairs, and to the brick pathway. A dreamy long gown laced with beautiful flowers of different colors walked down the runway, opening the show. Then, one after another, models walked down the runway, showcasing Leila's talented hands. Her style was evolving, and constantly improving, but her
