Weeks progressed, and the plan was already underway. Phylian contacted the architect who designed their mall and asked him to design a beach house for Phyllis. Their grandmother's initial design was on the modern side, with warm timber details. Phyllis just tweaked a few details, like adding a cantilever and an infinity pool. On the 52nd floor of the YJL building in Dixon City, Phyllis, and Zacharias came for a meeting with the architect in charge of the project. Phyllis flipped through the project plan. On the first page, the exterior perspective was beautifully designed. Sitting on top of the cliff is the four-bedroom beach house that they planned to build. The view of the white-sand beach can be seen from the house itself and from the infinity pool under the cantilever. The cold and sturdy concrete slabs were designed with warm timber. To make access to the beach easier, floating concrete steps were added. She was satisfied with how everything turned out, from the floor pla

The secretary first entered the office to inform the mayor and his daughter about their unexpected visitor.“Really? Did he really come?” Tiffany excitedly asked about the visitor that they have this afternoon. “He's here?!” She then turned to her father and asked, “Are you expecting a visit from the Lohr family?” “No…” his father answered. “Do you have any business with them?” The old mayor sipped his hot coffee and responded, “Aside from his mother, no.” Hearing this answer brightened Tiffany's stressful day. For the past few weeks, she has been trying to pressure Phyllis to get an apology from her. Just this afternoon, she got word from the city engineer’s office that the head architect of YJL Construction has already questioned them and is trying to get the decision overturned. 'How can they think that this would be checked by someone from a higher-up? My father has the say in this city.' 'Never mind all that! Zacharias is here now! I wonder why he's here?' A sudden t

The sound of loud music echoed in the large studio in Dixon City. Today is the live broadcast of the comeback showcase of the idol group Luna. The whole studio was filled with fans waiting for the show. The moment that their faces appeared on the large screen, accompanied by their music, the whole studio erupted. “AHHHHH, LUNAAAA!!” Rui's face twitched as she scooted away from her seatmate, who was screaming her lungs out for the idol group, Luna. She gave Phyllis a look and tugged on her sleeves. “Be quiet!” She tried to shush her friend. Rui observed that most of the fans were screaming in excitement. She witnessed how their eyes lit up as soon as the screen displayed Luna's concept photos for their comeback. She could see that everyone was happy with Luna's latest album release. Everyone was happy. …except for her friend, Phyllis. “LUNAAA!!!!” she screamed once more. Rui patted Phyllis' thighs and reminded her, “They're not on stage yet; calm down!” Hearing this, P

A loud thud resounded inside the men's comfort room as Zacharias fell to the floor. His consciousness slowly faded as he tried to reach out for his phone in his pocket. Soon after, a small red light blinked from his right arm. A girl inside a luxurious hotel room tapped the screen on her tablet, revealing a location in Dixon City. “Hurry and bring him up,” she said on the phone. “Got it, miss.” Satisfied with the turn of events, she took a good sip of her pink moscato. “I'll have to thank Auntie Vic for revealing the group's location for tonight.” She giggled as she browsed Phyllis' Ninstagram account. The simple photos posted made Tiffany sneer. She hated Phyllis' perfect life. She despised how Phyllis was cherished by her rich family. She envied how she was surrounded by a successful group of friends. She detested how she excelled academically and in her work. Above all, she hated how she got her crush just because she was his childhood friend. After getting humiliated

A large amount of Rohypnol content was found in his lab results. And contrary to what Phyllis suspected, the drug was not laced in the microchip but on the needle itself. Zacharias woke up after three long hours and is currently resting. He's just waiting for the drug to leave his body. The microchip was also taken out of his arm per his request and Phyllis' insistence. “Babe, please stop crying… The chip is already taken out…” Zacharias consoled Phyllis, who was sitting beside his bed. She has been taking care of him earnestly and has not taken a good sleep since the incident. He gently patted her back to comfort her. “I'm sorry… I'm so so sorry… We were researching microchips, babe…” “Hick—and the person who made that was a colleague of mine… If only I did not introduce this technology to him,” she said in between her sobs. She felt incredibly guilty about what happened to Zacharias. “Babe, it's not your fault. It's all on Tiffany who orchestrated all this, okay? It'
