Mirena stared at the message, her frown deepening.Talk?If she was being honest, she didn’t want to see Eleanor. Not now. What had happened still sat heavy in her chest, sharp and unresolved. It felt like betrayal—and she wasn’t ready to forgive that. Not yet.With a quiet exhale, she locked her screen and set her phone aside.Too much had happened in too little time.She needed to get her life back in order.First, the campaign—she was done with it. There was no point keeping up the PR façade or playing politics anymore. Second, Crest. There was no reason for her to stay, especially when it meant leaving herself exposed to Eleanor’s influence.If she was being honest, Julian Crest had always seemed… too accommodating. That connection needed to be cut.Which left Octa, Ash Empire prep inauguration and her own life to sort out.That, at least, felt manageable.“…Yeah,” she muttered softly to herself. “I can work with that.”Turning onto her side, she closed her eyes.Tomorrow, she woul

Let's Never Meet Again

There were levels to devastation—George had come to understand that the night before as he laid in bed staring at the article about Camille and the Sterling family being put on trial in a week.His eyes had lingered longer than necessary on Camille’s disfigured face, and instead of sympathy, all he felt was irritation… and a growing, bitter resentment.He had gambled everything on her.When she had returned, he had abandoned his marriage without hesitation, convinced that aligning himself with Camille—the so-called true heiress—would elevate him higher. But reality had turned on him with ruthless precision.

Mirena arrived at the restaurant not long after, her steps steady.The moment she pushed the door open and stepped inside, her eyes swept the space and landed on Eleanor almost instantly.Of course.Eleanor was already there, seated by the window, posture straight, hands folded neatly on the table. Composed, as always.Mirena paused for half a second, then exhaled quietly, bracing herself before walking over.She didn’t bother with pleasantries.The moment she reached the table, she pulled out a chair and sat down across from her.“Make it quick,” she said flatly. “You have ten minutes.”Eleanor’s fingers tightened slightly against each other.For the first time in a long time, she looked… uncertain.But she nodded.“…Alright.”There was a brief pause before she began.“I didn’t choose to support you from the orphanage out of kindness,” Eleanor said, her voice calm, but lacking its usual warmth. “Not at first.”Mirena didn’t react. She just watched her.“You stood out,” Eleanor contin

The next few days were a blur and before Mirena knew it, her birthday had arrived.With her plans already in her head, she got up and began getting ready. Once she was done, she walked out of her room.“Young Mistress,” Francisco greeted the moment she descended the stairs.“Francisco,” she replied with a small nod. “Where’s my grandfather?”“The master had a few errands to run at the company, so he stepped out.”Mirena paused mid-step, one brow lifting slightly. An errand at the company? Why didn't he just leave it for her to get done?The thought lingered briefly, but she didn’t dwell on it.“Do you need something?” Francisco asked.She shook her head lightly. “I’m heading out for a bit.”Francisco nodded, then added, “Will you be back by dinner?”Mirena nodded. “Yes.”Francisco inclined his head politely. “Alright. Safe trip then.”She gave him a small smile before turning and heading out. The moment she slipped into the driver’s seat, she paused, hands resting lightly on the steer
