When he loves you, you become his real granddaughter. Only then you will have his connections. Can you understand?” I nodded. “I understand.” “Then, come here.” I took her to the pressure cooker. I pulled her hand on the pressure cooker and suddenly opened the lid of the cooker. Then, Hallie’s arm was scalded. “Ouch!” She screamed. “Mom, I am scalded by the hot air. It hurts.” I love my daughter, but if I didn’t do so, how could I make old Wilson’s heart melt? I could only hold back the tears and hug her. “Hallie, you can tole

I wondered if she would end up throwing her pride away and scrambling for supplies like I did last time. I was honestly looking forward to it. I hoped she wouldn't disappoint me too soon! The next morning… The sun hadn't even risen when the heat woke me up. That same suffocating, bone-dry feeling from my past life came rushing back. I quickly switched on the air conditioner, and the cool air brought me back to my senses. It must have already been scorching hot outside. The plants outside my window were all drooping and wilting. I stood quietly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, watching as the sun slowly climbed higher. The clock on the wall ticked back and forth. The apocalyptic heatw

Diana explained, “Look, I just don’t want to owe you anything. You made breakfast this morning, so…” After that, Diana left Brian alone in the kitchen. However, he didn’t seem too bothered, as he was smiling to himself as Diana walked away. The dishes Diana cooked were still warm. Brian tasted it and was pleased. He remembered the flavor of the dish; he was sure that he must have tasted it before. Thinking of that, Brian took another bite and eventually ate the lot. Brian felt relaxed. He didn’t know how he could feel so satisfied just from eating Diana’s food. Brian swore at that moment that he had to get his lost memory back; there was something extraordinary about Diana that he couldn’t g

Until this new realisation of recognising how much I wasn't done with the Caldwells at all. I mean, they are not good people. But then… "Just read!"

Swinging her legs off the bed, she slipped into her slippers and called out, “Adele.” The mirror across the room flickered to life, the screen lighting up with the familiar face of the AI. Her voice, smooth and emotionless, greeted Nina. “Adele at your service. How may I help you?” Nina walked over, her reflection faintly visible behind Adele’s glowing form. “Show me the last pictures Adelaide took before the final crisis that claimed her life,” she said, her voice steady, though her heart beat faster at the thought of what she might uncover.

Then, I mumbled softly, "Julius, I'm about to book a hotel room. Do you have the guts to sleep with me?" I still remembered the night we met after the breakup. The thing was, I was still terrified. Even though we'd already established a steady relationship and our breakup was a thing of the past, I was still terrified. I was terrified that I hadn't received a positive answer back then. I could only hug Julius tightly and close my eyes. Thank goodness he was in my arms right now. Julius patted me on the head before hoisting me up in his arms. "We don't have to go to a hotel for that. Let's go home." Right… Home. We could go back to our home.

"We’ve mastered the world. Now, we have to survive the Solar System." The New Frontier The Leidenfrost began its descent, but Kael wasn't looking at his home.

Maya’s POV I received the urgent call from Elena in the middle of the night, and my heart jumped into my throat when I heard the details. The assassination attempt on Julian had already started. Havisham sent men to end his own son’s life. I moved fast and used Elena’s contacts to intercept the plan before it finished. Julian survived because of quick action, but the father-and-son war had truly begun. Blood turned against blood inside the Cross family. Elena spoke quickly on the phone. “The hit team is close,” she said. “My contact gave us the location. We send a warning message through back channels. Julian needs to know now.”

The last thing I remembered was my stepmother handing me a cup of coffee and wishing me good morning with a broad smile on her face. I never knew that behind that smile was a plan. And that plan is exactly where I am now. Leila took a step closer and crouched, her face now inches from mine. “I won't lie, Grace,” she whispered mockingly. “You were something back then.
