Raine's POVI have some information about the person that the woman was discussing. I quickly grab my phone and show her the email. Glancing at her ID, I realize that she’s one of the interns named Alyssa Cruz."Please! I was the one who sent that email because I want to protect my sister from those…" she paused, tears welling up in her eyes.I search for a handkerchief, but I don’t have one. My husband opens the glove box and hands me a tissue. I pass it to her and she continues crying uncontrollably.It seems like she knows about the difficulties her sister faced while working here. "Share the details when you feel ready to talk," I say.Secretly, I turn on the camera on my phone. The necklace I was wearing had a nanocamera. I asked Macey to get one of these from El Greco Tech Enterprise. This will record our conversation.After a few minutes, she started to calm down. “What happened, Alyssa?” I inquire. She nervously fidgets with her fingers, showing her reluctance to answer my que

Raine's POVAs I woke up, I realized that Kai wasn't by my side. I got up and yawned, feeling bad because he had to carry me inside the car, where I fell asleep. I know I'm quite heavy.After getting up, I decided to wash my face, as I can't sleep wearing my makeup. I noticed that the sheets of our bed were all white, and I knew I would only create problems for our maids.As I was walking towards the bathroom, I heard Kai's voice from the balcony. I was about to approach him when I was taken aback by what I heard.Kai responded to the caller, "We need to ensure that our plans proceed without any hitches. Failure is not an option. I married Raine El Greco to conceal my identity and ensure that everything goes according to our wishes. If we have to resort to underhanded tactics, then so be it. I am unconcerned with anything else."I covered my lips and concealed myself against the wall. I was relieved that he didn't notice or hear my footsteps. What is he talking about?I pull back the

Raine's POVI still feel afraid, but I need to find the courage to face him without fear. I want to be able to smile at him without any hint of trembling in my spine.I think carefully before responding. "You have the potential to be a CEO, Kai Montefalcon, rather than just an actor or an idol," I said firmly, despite his blank expression. I have to play my part perfectly. I have to do it.."Macey may seem intimidating, but she can assist you. I'm flying to London tomorrow to take care of some matters on my farm. I'll be in London for three days and then in Columbia for two days. I'll return in six days and I hope to hear good news from you despite today's chaos," I remark and smile.I walk away and draw back the curtain, gazing at the skyscrapers ahead. This era seems so familiar to me. I feel like nothing really changes on this year except for my identity and surname.Kai sighed as he sat on the edge of the table. "If that's what you want, then good luck with your trip abroad. I'll

emotional barrier I had put up was no longer there. Ultimately, I decided to follow my heart's desires instead of heeding my rational thoughts. I couldn't resist it - I am in love with him. That's why I am willing to deceive myself."I'm heading out to teach them a lesson. I had planned to act oblivious and hesitant. Let's test the truth behind the staff's alleged racism. After that, I will meet with the head of the union for the rally," I declared. It's already three in the afternoon here in London."Best of luck then. Come back home as soon as you can, alright? I want to celebrate our first month together," Kai remarked. His words caught me off guard."Celebrating a first month together? Isn't that a bit cliché? I mean... I'm sorry. I've never actually done something like that," I admitted quietly.I could hear his gentle laughter on the other end. Swallowing my pride the previous night was worth it. "I want to celebrate with my wife. It's my first time marking such an occasion," he

Kai's POVAfter catching a glimpse of my internet browsing, Walter and George fixed their gaze on me and placed their hands on my shoulder. "What are you up to, cousin?" George asks.As I crossed my legs and caressed my lips, I let out a sigh. "What you see is what you get," I replied simply.They took seats beside me and pressed on. "That's why we're asking! What's with the Pinterest search for sexy lingerie?!"Walter's voice grated on my nerves, prompting me to touch my ears and glare at him. "Don't even think it's for me! I'll punch your face," I warned sternly, even raising my fist in threat.Their sudden laughter and knowing looks followed. "For the WIFE!" they emphasized.I looked at the screen, unable to decide on the top three options I had searched for, prompting more laughter from them."Walter asked if I planned to have our wedding night as soon as she comes back or to celebrate our famous monthsaries as a couple," I replied without hesitation.Their jaws dropped at my blun
