“Harriet!”Harriet and Cassius tilted their heads. They saw a woman approaching their side with an angelic smile on her innocent face.As soon as Harriet saw Reese, her hands around Cassius have tightened. Cassius felt the sudden rage. He looked at her hands and to Harriet’s sharp eyes which were fixed to the coming lady.“I didn’t know that you will go back home now!” Reese gasped then she deliberately stared alternately at Cassius and their hands. “But… who is this man you’re holding?”Harriet quickly let go of Cassius hand. She cannot let Reese create a malicious rumor about her and Cassius.“R-Reese,” Harriet murmured. “Where did you go from?”“Ohhh, w-well…” Reese scratched her nape awkwardly.She cannot let Harriet finds out that she planned on meeting her father.

Chapter 30 "Who is More Desperate"
“You followed Harriet on the way to New York?” Finn asked his son, Zion.The members of Fabroa family were seated together inside Finn’s room. They gathered here after meeting Cassius, who returned home after a long time.“Yes. I followed her,” Zion proudly answered. He crossed his long legs, wrapped his hands on his knees and smiled at his parents.“Why did you follow that lowly woman?” his mother, Sherly, rebuked.“Harriet got into an accident. And she is my secretary. So I don’t see any wrong with following her to New York.”“Huh,” Madell suddenly laughed. She mockingly stared at her brother and said, “The boss followed his secretary. This is so rare. Brother, you look like an owner who followed his dog. It will be funny if the owner wag his tail in front of the dog.”Zion’s arrogant eyes shot straight to his sister. He sneered at her first, then replied, “As far as I can remember, you are still under provision, right?”The smile on Madell’s lips vanished.“Why don’t you act as if

Chapter 31 "Being a Villain like You"
There are no CCTV around my room. It is obvious that Madell asked the servants to take out all cameras so that she can abuse me whenever she wanted. I remembered times when she will knock in my room just to give me a good slap. Well, I tolerated her craziness before because I was stupidly in love with her brother. Yes. I was an idiot who hoped that we can still be family if only I tried. But not now. After the second slap on her face, Madell is now on her hands and knees on the ground. When she turned back to me, I could clearly see how red her cheeks are. ‘So satisfying to see.’ “How dare you?!” she shouted, shooting laser with her sharp eyes. All of her body are trembling, not because she’s frightened, but because she’s so eager to hit me back. “I only did that to remember if I hit miss Madell or not,” I answered with sarcastic smile on my lips. “But I guess, it is such a hard job. Maybe, if my hand turned numb from hitting you, then I can remember.” I showed her my right

Chapter 32 "The Best Actress"
Both of cheeks got swollen red and I could feel the tingling pain spread out all of my face. It feels like something is burning and they went as big as two burger buns. Nevertheless, I am so used of receiving physical pain so this does not much worry me at all. I practiced how to treat myself too.To aid my reddened cheeks, I went to the mansion’s kitchen. I put ice cubes inside a clean towel and pressed them on my face. It’s cool enough to subside my anger.As I pressed the ice and stared at the blank space, I recalled how shocked the chairman was when he saw me sitting on the ground in front of his granddaughter. Actually, I already expected that the chairman will walk around that area because he always feels thirsty during that time. It is his night routine, which I won’t forget because I’ve served him for long years. That was why I purposely slapped myself and pretended like a victim.‘Well, I am indeed a victim of Madell’s abuse. It just that I found a way how to fight back and t

Chapter 33 "People on Her Side"
The next morning, my cheeks still feel hurt. When I looked at my reflection in the mirror, I saw two bruises on each side of my face. “Oh my gosh.” However, I slapped Madell harder that what I did to me so her face must be swollen until now. ‘That suddenly made me happy.’ Not that I am turning violent. But punishing someone like her is worth it. Besides, didn’t she’s the first one who threatened my life? What I did last night is a self-defense, feat. vengeance. I looked at myself in front of the mirror again while thinking the way to cover my bruises. ‘But it is really necessary to hide my bruises?’ Today, I am going to the company together with Zion. If the employees saw my bruises, what will they think? ‘They will probably think that someone is mistreating me inside the mansion.’ Zion is living in different house. Everyone saw how much the chairman loves me so they won’t think that it was grandpa Sorren who hit me. Then, all that left are Madam Sherly, sir Finn and Mad

I can go by myself, Zion,” the shy Harriet told the tall man walking with her. “It’s okay,” Zion reassured.
