~MERRY POV~The beam of light began to fall on my face, and I blinked before opening my eyes and moving my arms to calm my nerves.I tapped my hand on the bed and turned, feeling the absence of Julian beside me.I sat down on the bed and looked around for Julian. "Where are you, Julian?" I jumped out of bed, making my way to the bathroom and knocking.When I did not get a response from the other side, I grabbed the door handle and opened it.There is no one inside—it is completely empty. "Julian?" I mumbled while biting my lip. The tension began to take over my nerves, making me concerned about Julian.When my eyes caught the recorder with the package box on the table, I took a step closer.I grabbed the recorder in the first place while turning it on, and Julian's voice came out. "Good Morning, Princess!" As soon as his voice reached my ears, a smile spread across my lips, causing me to relax in my seat. "First of all, take a breath!" However, the words escaped, and

~MERRY POV~I turned back to look at Julian and touched his cheek with my palm while inspecting him from head to toe.He is not fully conscious—he is simply blinking his eyes at me and grabbing his head.I could feel the pain in my heart as I watched him in this helpless state. "You want to say that Mr. Knight has not taken drugs?" The journalist interrupted while removing my thoughts from my mind. "He is on drugs!" I responded while exchanging looks with the journalist. "Is this your confession that your husband is a drug addict?" Another journalist interrupted me as he posed a question. "Let me finish!" I pointed my finger at him before continuing. "My husband does not do drugs—I am his wife; I know him better than you." "So I request you to shut up and watch the drama!" I gritted my teeth and put everyone in their place before turning to Mia, who was the true culprit in this mess.I scanned her, looking for a weapon against her to prove Julian's innocenc

~Merry POV~I came to Gilbert Mansion to meet Lyra. There is only one suspect in my mind behind Julian's incident, and it is Lyra. She could only do such terrible things to harm people.I entered her room without knocking on the door and grabbing her attention.She is taking care of skincare I tightened my grip around her shoulder while pulling her to me. "Heck!" She sounded as the beauty product fell down while breaking into pieces. "What do you want?" She screamed as she looked at me.I didn't reply to her back but grabbed both of her shoulders while pinning her against the wall.The moment her back smacked against the wall, a groan escaped out of her mouth while she placed her hand on the waist. "OUCH, WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU!" She screamed at the end while shaking her head. "Didn't I tell you to stay away from my life?" I gritted my teeth as I tightened my grip around her shoulders. "What are you talking about?" She looked at me in confusion while trying

~MERRY POV~I sucked his lower lip with my lips before breaking off the kiss.He was doing his best to comfort me.I moved my buttocks while sitting tightly on his lap, then touched his cheek and examined his eyes, nose, and lips. He was not in the state to confront me. He has just recovered from a traumatic experience, but he is more concerned with my situation than with his own.I just can't accept the truth: my grandfather was responsible for my parents' separation. I cupped his cheeks with my palm and moved my lips close to his face.He tightened his grip on my waist, waking up my nerves. I kissed him on his left eyebrow while making him close his eyes. I never got a chance to kiss him and feel him ever before in our romance.I feel like this is my night with him, and I want to clear my mind and spend time with him.All I have right now is to lean my head on his shoulders.We need each other right now.I kissed him on his right cheek while rubbing his left cheek with my thumb

~Julian POV~I reached the police station where the cop held Mia in the cell.As soon as I looked out, the car doors opened from my side, and my eyes widened as I noticed Samuel in front of me. "Make your way out!" Samuel mumbled, and I got out of the car, sharing a look with him. "I spoke with the cops and arranged the meeting with Mia."Leaning against the car, I could not help but scoff.I didn't talk to cops about meeting Mia; I thought to talk straight, but here, Samuel arranged everything. He is Samuel, my guard, and he is like my strength whom I can trust in this world while closing my eyes.I walked in alongside Samuel to meet Mia.I sat on the chair in the private meeting room to ensure that no one could overhear our conversation.The doors opened, and Mia appeared, sharing a look with me.She has no fear in her eyes as she watches me sit tight with no wounds."Will you leave us alone?" Samuel asked the cop, grabbing his attention."Oh, okay—I will leave you guys a
