Lahat ng Kabanata ng Luna's Perfect Revenge: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

The warmth of the morning was unfamiliar. The air, which usually carried the refreshing scent of dew, felt stifling, as if laden with unseen whispers. The sunlight reflecting off the windows seemed dim, reluctant to promise a new day. Even the birds chirping in the trees outside were muted, lacking their usual cheerfulness.Estelle sat in front of her vanity mirror and gazed at her reflection. Faint dark circles shadowed her eyes—the remnants of a long, restless night filled with incessant thoughts.Estelle took a deep breath, but it did little to dispel the uneasiness that nestled in her chest. So, she picked up a lipstick and applied it to her lips, hoping to mask her tension with a facade of calm. She thought, I need to look normal.When she was done, Estelle slowly rose from her chair. She took one last look at her reflection in the mirror to make sure there were no traces of the anxiety she was desperately trying to hide. She didn't want to a

Kiara clicked her tongue slightly and tidied some of her things on the table. "Have you stopped watching horror series lately? Don't tell me you've switched to romantic dramas."Estelle rolled her eyes dramatically. "Don't try to change the subject, Kiara," she said, grabbing one of Kiara's hands. Kiara reflexively turned to face her. "I'm sure you've noticed. Morgan is interested in you.""No, Estelle," Kiara replied firmly, pulling her hand out of Estelle's grip. "He's not interested in me. Besides, he invited us to lunch. Us, not just me. So, it was just a polite invitation, probably to help us bond. After all, we'll be seeing a lot of each other because of this project."Estelle scoffed. "Please don't be naive, Kiara. I'm sure you know that inviting me was just a formality to lighten the mood. From the beginning he only wanted to invite you. And don't tell me you haven't noticed how he keeps stealing glances at you? He—oh!"Kiara, who had origin

That morning, the sky was still pale blue, veiled in a soft glow of sunlight that gradually touched the tall buildings of downtown Gandlerhode. Amidst the roar of vehicles and the hustle and bustle of morning activity, Estelle was already in the company car on her way to one of Montague Companies, Inc.'s field projects. On this day, she was to inspect first-hand the progress of the renewable energy project that has been a major focus for the company in recent years.In Estelle's hands was a tablet containing the latest project report. Charts, tables, and evaluation notes filled the screen, but her mind remained sharp, searching for any detail that could be improved."Miss Estelle," the driver called politely, interrupting her thoughts for a moment. "We'll be at the project site in about fifteen minutes."Estelle nodded, barely taking her eyes off the tablet. She continued to concentrate until they reached the project site.The hustle and bustle of the sit

There were two things on Wade's mind when he got home that night. Firstly, he would never doubt his instincts—not now, not ever. It had been proven once again that his desire to check on Estelle wasn't just a fleeting urge, but a premonition—something that, if ignored, would have led to deep regret.Wade felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude beyond what words could express. His decision to go to her had not only saved Estelle from great danger, but had also given him peace of mind. He couldn't bear to think what might have happened if he had ignored his gut feeling. Surely, he would never have forgiven himself for the rest of his life.The irony was that Estelle's safety did not bring Wade the peace of mind he had hoped for. His fear still lingered. The uneasy pounding in his chest was proof of this. The harrowing memory of the earlier events replayed itself in his mind.Wade's thoughts were consumed by the image of Estelle narrowly escaping harm. He could recall everything vividly—

There was a place on the top floor of a five-star hotel that stood majestically above the city of Gandlerhode, like a crown on the top of a skyscraper—Verité Prime. It was known as a prestigious restaurant, not just a place to satisfy hunger and thirst, but a destination for those seeking luxury with a breathtaking view. It offered an endless panorama of the city, from its bustling streets to the horizon, where the skyline seemed to merge seamlessly with the sky.Verité Prime's interior was a fusion of modern aesthetics and classic elegance. It featured soaring ceilings adorned with crystal chandeliers that cast a soft, shimmering glow, while its white marble floors, patterned with delicate veins, reflected the natural light streaming in through the expansive windows. Dark wooden tables were arranged with precision, providing ample space for privacy without diminishing the sense of togetherness.Comfort and security had always been Verité Prime's hallmarks, as was its reputation for u
