***Anastasia looked at Lyra thoughtfully. Lyra's words echoed in her mind, shaking her confidence. However, she still wanted to trust Maximilian. "I trust him because I always feel safe with him," Anastasia finally replied, her voice soft yet full of conviction.Lyra looked deeply into Anastasia's eyes, searching for the truth behind her words. Despite the doubt on her face, Lyra chose to respect Anastasia's feelings. "If you feel something's wrong, it's better to talk to him from the heart," Lyra finally said, her tone full of tenderness and support. "If Max really loves you, he wouldn't be able to lie to you."Anastasia fell silent for a moment, trying to take Lyra's advice in. She knew that talking to Maximilian was the only way to find answers. However, a fear loomed over her heart. The fear that what she was about to discover might change everything. Still, she couldn't continue to live in uncertainty. She had just experienced being loved and treated gently by someone, and she h

***Anastasia's new album showcase was a huge success. The large room was filled with fans who had been waiting for this opportunity to meet their idol and get autographs. The music that echoed throughout the room and the spotlights that danced on the stage created an atmosphere full of energy, along with the unstoppable enthusiasm of the fans.Anastasia sat at the autograph table, smiling gently each time a fan approached with a face full of excitement. She knew how important this night was for her career and as a chance to show her appreciation to her supporters.In the middle of the long line, a man wearing a black mask and hat was seen slowly moving toward Anastasia. He looked ordinary, nothing special, just like any other fan. However, Anastasia's gaze immediately fell on him; she sensed that she knew him.As he approached, one of the bodyguards moved to stop him, suspecting something was amiss. However, Anastasia quickly raised her hand, signaling the bodyguard to back off."Let

***Anastasia was trying on dresses in a luxury boutique owned by Celine Idzes when her eyes accidentally met a familiar figure. Renata and Selene Kingsley were standing near the boutique's entrance, smiling at her. With graceful steps, they approached her."Anastasia, what a coincidence to meet here," Selene said warmly. "It's been a while since we had dinner together."Anastasia smiled and arranged her long, flowing hair. "I'm glad to see you, too. How about we have dinner together? Aunt Celine might be able to join us, too.”“Sure, dear,” Celine replied.After they agreed, they headed to a fancy restaurant in the city center. The restaurant's atmosphere that night was elegant. It was dimly lit by candles and decorated with white roses on every table. They sat down at the table Selene had reserved, and a waiter soon came with the menu."Anastasia," Selene said with a proud smile. "I heard your album is selling well and breaking sales records. Congratulations! I know you'll always be

***"If you have time, I'll wait for you at the French restaurant. I have something I want to talk to you about."Anastasia stared at her phone, disbelieving. She had just received a message from someone who made her heart skip a beat: Rhett Noire, her rarely-contacting father, suddenly wanted to meet. It was a short message, but it made her uneasy."Why, Ana?" asked Maximilian, who had just entered the room. He noticed her unusual expression and immediately sensed that something was wrong.She handed him her cell phone wordlessly. Maximilian looked at the name of the sender. Although he was surprised, he tried to remain calm."Rhett Noire?" Maximilian pretended not to understand, hoping Anastasia would explain further.Anastasia sighed softly, her voice full of confusion. "He's... Rhett Noire—my father. You met him once before when he hit you that night. I broke off our relationship. I told him I would never use his last name again. But now he wants to see me. I don't know what to do

***Anastasia lay in Maximilian's arms, feeling peaceful under the warm blanket. The night was growing late around them, but the silence of the room brought peace. Maximilian kissed the top of her head gently, his breathing slow and steady."I may not be able to come home for a week," Maximilian said suddenly. "I have work to do. I'm leaving town the day after tomorrow."Anastasia turned her head slightly, her eyebrows knitted together. "What work? Aren't you just a cook and should always be in the restaurant?"Maximilian smiled a little, as if the question was funny to him. "Yes, but this time there was a special training. I have to learn new menus to be better prepared for the new menus in the restaurant."Anastasia was silent, her heart a little uneasy. It was Selene's wedding anniversary in five days and she planned to travel to New Zealand for the celebration. She wanted to tell Maximilian, but was afraid it would interfere with her work.She sighed slowly and decided to postpone
