Chapter 1

The year 2040."My child, no matter what happens, you must always remember that family is important. They are your partners in both adversity and comfort. They will never abandon you.""Daddy, I'm already content knowing our family is complete." I smiled at my father. He also smiled and parted my unkempt bangs, blocking my vision.Would everything have been different if I had noticed he was sad during those times?During those times, why didn’t I notice that his eyes, twinkling like stars, were then lifeless?I wanted to ask my father. Was I not enough?W-Why… Why did he have to leave me?“Daddy.” I shivered as I gazed at the magnificent stars. "Despite the few years I spent without you, the pain is still here."I was holding onto my chest as it weighed down. I could feel my breathing tighten because of the pain I struggled to endure. I smiled bitterly and drank the wine from the bottle I was holding. With the back of my palm, I wiped my wet lips.I staggered to my feet and then walke

Chapter 2

Two women burst into the room where I was. I recognized one of them right away.Vincent’s personal secretary."Please, let me go." I glared at her, but she just averted her gaze. "Do you realize what you're doing now? I'm going to sue you all!""Sue me if you manage to flee, Ms. Viacera." Vincent arrived, and he was dressed formally. "No one can hear you, no matter how loud you shout."“Why are you doing this?” I was stunned as I suppressed my self-loathing. “I-I thought we had an agreement.”“A-huh?” He leaned against the door jamb and slammed the wall using his fist. “You forgot, Ms. Viacera, that we are sworn enemies. Do you think I’ll be gentle with you?”Because of what he said, my hands began to tremble. I blinked and bit my bottom lip.He was correct. Why did I believe he would assist me?“For the next two months, my secretaries will monitor your behavior and health. Consider yourself fortunate if you did not become pregnant.I gave him a dark look. “And what if I become pregna

Chapter 3

Four years laterThe year 2044.“Mommy!” When I saw Ashy approaching, I put down the document I was reading. I could tell she was about to sue her twin brother because she was crying.“M-Mommy! Nash is fighting me! ” She burst into tears, so I got up and went over to her. Nash appeared with his frowning face.“Mommy! I informed her that she should not have brought her toys! I’m sick of collecting her scattered toys.” Nash approached me, and he began crying, too. Watching my two twin children cry, I almost touched my forehead.I carried them both and went straight to my private plane’s room. When my flight attendant noticed that I had difficulty lifting my kids, she attempted to take Nash, but this only made him cry more. We both sighed as we looked at each other.“Cayer!” I called my secretary.Cayer emerged from the door in front of me, dressed formally. A secretary’s typical attire. He was also wearing spectacles.“Uncle Cayi!” Ashy extended her hand to my secretary. And when Cayer

Chapter 4

"Shianna! Let's talk about it! Don't dismiss me!"I kept walking away, ignoring Mom, who was chasing after me."Shianna!" When she managed to grab my arm, I reacted violently. I gave her a cold stare, causing Mom to release my arm immediately."What is it?" I stepped closer to her, smiling sarcastically. Her eyes widened slightly, and she took a step back. "What do you want us to discuss? Is there anything else we should talk about?"Mom looked at me for a long time before bitterly laughing as if she were secretly in pain."You've changed."I took a deep breath and was about to say something when I noticed my stepfather hastily approaching us. When I gave him a blank stare, he immediately stopped running."Honey." My stepfather went to my Mom. He had a grim face when he turned to face me."I can't believe you made your mother chase after you. Are you that disrespectful?""Wow." I blinked and turned to face the onlookers in the distance. The reporters wanted to go near, but they couldn

"S-Son." When I held him, he began to cry. I picked him up, and he hugged me tightly."I'm afraid.""Please forgive me for my carelessness, Miss Shian." Cayer turned on the flashlight he always carried thoughtfully. I glared at him as he handed it to me."Nash, when was the last time you saw Ashy?""I saw him in the library." Nash sobbed even more. "I went to the bathroom to pee, but when I returned, Ashy had vanished."Cayer pulled out another flashlight and switched it on. He carried Nash, who was still crying."Take him somewhere safe," I said. "I'll track down Ashy.""But it's risky!" he protested."Does it matter?" I almost burst out in anger. The shouts of people, unsure what to do, could be heard everywhere."My son has gone missing, Cayer!" I gritted my teeth, and I wanted to scream, but my son was looking at me. I inhaled deeply and approached my son. I held his head gently and kissed his hair. Fortunately, no one noticed us because they were too preoccupied with saving thems

Chapter 6

“The Viacera,” the audience mumbled as they retreated to make room for the Viacera Clan, who were clearly upset about the situation. I was relieved to see that my great-grandfather and grandfather weren’t here.“Oh! Shianna? You’ve returned!” One of my cousins, Livi, waved at me. My aunts and uncles raised their eyebrows as she approached. Meanwhile, my cousins stood around casually, taking in their surroundings. The women were stiff and stolid, their arms folded, while the men stood emotionless, watching what was going on. Some plainly enjoyed the chaos they observed. They enjoyed the excitement, didn’t they?“Oh?” Cassie approached us. She turned to face the enraged woman beside me. She narrowed her eyes and snapped her tongue.“Wow. I’d leave Shianna if I were you because I don’t want to go directly to hell. Do you realize that being physically powerful is in our blood? We’d be martial arts masters if we weren’t so wealthy.” Cassie folded her arms and laughed gently. She then stare

Chapter 7

"The entire country was stunned when Shianna Viacera of the Viacera Clan appeared. After four years, she unexpectedly appeared at the formal launching of Kalinga Charity, a project created by wealthy individuals. However, inside the party, an attack had occurred—"An unknown man used the remote to switch off the television in front of him. His face could not be seen because the surroundings were slightly dimmed. He was holding a shot glass full of costly wine."Boss, Ms. Ybañez has arrived.""Let her in." The man positioned the glass in front of him on the center table. The city lights that were easily visible from his condo unit's floor-to-ceiling window were eye-catching. He owned the entire 55-story structure. And he was the only one who was living here, with his workers roaming the whole area.The door to his apartment unit flew open, revealing Ms. Ybaez still dressed in the spy suit. She approached the man and bowed to offer her respects."You failed," said the man."Please forgi

Chapter 8

“Miss Viacera!" says the reporter. "Please, say something!" "Is it true that the families aren't on good terms?" "Shit!" When my forehead collided with something hard, I came to a halt. When I recognized the man I had run into, I looked up and restrained my eyes from widening. Our gazes locked, and I nearly passed out when I saw his black eyes. "You appear to be in a hurry, Miss Viacera. Is that why you didn't respond to my message? I was inviting you to join me at a conference." I couldn't respond if I hadn't read it! I also delegated email management to Cayer. I also didn't mind if Vincent contacted me. "You." I shoved him with a dark look on my face. "Get out of my way." Vincent locked his gaze on me, and suddenly, his face was obscured by darkness. I ignored his tightening jaw. I walked past him, but he grabbed my arm violently. I yelled and was going to fight back when someone grabbed Vincent's collar. "You enjoy irritating her, Vincent. Unfortunately, I will not allow you
