The Big Mansion was the only building around the area as Ivan walked through the silent space. His hands were in his pockets as he raised his head to look at the towering building above.It had been a year since he arrived in this place, yet it only felt like yesterday.This place seemed to hold secrets that none of the members spoke about.Ivan entered through the large gate, his eyes as cold as ice, but as he saw the old man standing at the entrance, his heart softened a bit.“You're back!” The Old Man's eyes brightened, waving his hands in the air. “I have been waiting for you.”“I’m sorry I'm late. Something happened to a classmate, so I had to help her home,” Ivan explained, a smile on his lips.Old Master Reyfold was the father of Roshni, Ivan’s mother, and also the former president of the Reyfold Group.When Ivan first came here, this man had taken him in with open hands and a wide smile on his face.

Do you think we should investigate him further?” Violet asked, dropping the file on the desk. She crossed her arm, leaning further on the sofa. “He is a little bit interesting though.”“My lady! You are praising him for being fascinating, but we are unsure if your life is in jeopardy at this poi

After school, Violet didn’t tell Ethan before she left school because the latter wouldn’t even allow it. Since they had known each other since they were young children, they were familiar with each other's tastes and backstories. Because of his father's previous employment with the Mars Family, Ethan got to know Violet, underwent training with Mars Security Organization, and eventually earned his certification as a bodyguard in order to protect her. “Did you tell Ethan before you leave?” Ivan asked as he and Violet walked side by side through the street. “He is kinda obsessed with you. “He could kill himself before you return home if he knows you are with me.” “You don’t have to worry about him,” Violet replied. “I already told him not to wait for me. And Ethan is not obsessed with me, he is just being protective of me.”"Yeah, whatever," Ivan replied in an indifferent tone. “Are you sure you want to go and see her? Her street is not for a rich princess like you.” Violet frowned h
