Contrary to what you might think from the outside, behind this steel door is an incredibly spacious and luxurious living room. The floor is made of high quality marble in a combination of white and black, forming a special emblem.The walls separating one room from the other are made of thick transparent glass."Come in, Miss!" Aaron said, inviting the girl into the room.As the girl stepped over the threshold that separated the room from the corridor outside, the steel gate closed again.As she stepped onto the beautiful marble floor, she realized that the emblem she saw on the floor was a reflection of something hanging from the ceiling of the room.Looking up, she saw a dome-shaped chandelier made of hundreds of beautiful pearls.Dakota was speechless at what she saw. But before her astonishment could fade, she no longer saw the old man in his place. "Huh! Where did the old man go?"After a while, her mind regained its focus. She hadn't come to this place to play around. She had to
Daniel stared at the girl intently and asked her to explain what was really bothering her.Amelia took several deep breaths and exhaled."Daniel, I'm actually worried about what Mr. Amaro is going to do!""Why is that? Forget it! It's better than the fire damaging other parts of his body!" Daniel said, trying to comfort the girl."It's not that!" Amelia replied, looking annoyed."Then what do you mean?"Daniel thought Amelia was worried about Archibald."I'm talking about Mr. Aaron!"What?Amelia's words made Daniel remember the old man who was currently being threatened by Dakota for something he hadn't done."You're right! Didn't Mr. Aaron just lie earlier? What will happen to him if Dakota finds out that he lied?"Daniel's face seemed to consider his words. Unseen by Daniel, Amelia shook her head again."No! Not like this, Daniel!"Daniel turned his head to the girl sitting next to him, not really understanding what the girl wanted."I had a vision!"Daniel stared at Amelia intentl
Amelia did not answer Daniel's question.Her body continued to shake as she tried to suppress and deny the memories that had haunted her for the past ten years.Sensing that something serious must have happened to the girl, Daniel took Amelia's hands in his own and tried to channel his inner energy into her.With his energy transfer technique, Daniel hoped to relieve the mental pressure the girl was experiencing.As their hands joined and Daniel focused his mind on healing Amelia, another technique Daniel possessed suddenly became active beyond his control.It was the mind reading technique!When he saw what the girl might have seen in her vision, Daniel's eyes widened with indescribable amazement."What's that?" he exclaimed with restraint.***"You miserable old man! Get me out of here!" Dakota shouted from inside the glass room.But it was in vain. As explained earlier, the room was airtight, so the girl's screams could not be heard by Aaron.Only the movement of her lips and her a
One day, the head of the Amaro family announced to everyone that he was going to marry his second son, Aaron Amaro, to a girl from another noble family named Dolcie.According to Tectona's tradition, this family had to invite the girl to visit their castle.She accepted their invitation and came alone, without her family. Of course, being a noble, she was accompanied by dozens of Warriors.On the way, Dolcie's escort took a wrong turn.To help the girl, the Amaro family asked Rufus to pick her up.When Rufus saw Dolcie for the first time, his heart raced.As a commoner from a poor family, this was the first time he had seen a girl of Dolcie's extraordinary beauty.On the girl's side, not knowing that Rufus was just a servant, she greeted the man very politely."Thank you for taking the time to meet me, sir! I feel very honored to be personally picked up by the Amaro family," she said as she saw Rufus get out of his car.Dolcie's kindness made Rufus' heart beat irregularly. Not only di
Three days before Aaron and Dolcie's wedding.In one of the luxurious rooms of the Amaro Palace, a woman in her forties stood with a very serious expression on her face, looking at several neatly hung gowns on a clothes rack.There were more than a dozen such dresses, all of them wedding gowns designed by one of Tectona's finest designers, and each one costing the equivalent of a modest home.The woman was Melvina Amaro, the grand lady and mother of Zane and Aaron.Though this was not her first time officiating a wedding, for some reason her heart had been troubled lately."Does a wedding always have to cause such immense anxiety?" she thought.She had organized a wedding for her eldest son, Zane, before, so there shouldn't have been any major obstacles in preparing for this one, right?But that did not seem to be the case.Aside from worrying about not being able to provide the best hospitality to her guests, Melvina was also puzzled about which wedding dress to give Dolcie.Accordin
Melvina looked at Rufus as if she hoped the Warrior would agree to join Ursula in delivering the dress.The lady didn't know that the Warrior would do it without being asked."Of course, I will do whatever you tell me to do!" Rufus replied and bowed his head.Melvina then walked over to another shelf, which contained only men's clothing.She picked out a suit and handed it to Rufus. "I want you to look good when you deliver this suit, so the Williamson family will think we really respect them!""Thank you, my lady!" Rufus replied, placing his palms in front of his body while keeping his head bowed.Melvina then handed Rufus the suit.While Melvina's expression showed relief and satisfaction, Ursula felt differently.The servant didn't really agree that Rufus should accompany her to the Williamson's house. Especially since the old woman's intuition told her that there was something behind Rufus' willingness to accompany her.Still, as a servant, there was nothing she could do but follo
Lula left Rufus alone in the room. "Rest for a while! I'll prepare something for you," she said as she held the leaf of the door to close it from the outside."Madam, there's no need for you to do that!" Rufus replied politely."What are you talking about? Not at all! I want to do this!" the woman said, quickly closing the door.Not long after, a soft knock was heard at the door.Knock! Knock!"Sir, am I disturbing you?"It was the voice of a young girl who served the family."No! Come in!"The girl slowly opened the door and pushed in a cart loaded with various foods.With skill, the girl arranged the food on the table.Rufus stared at the girl for a moment. Somehow, being alone in a room with a girl aroused his desire.He continued to watch her until she had finished arranging the food and was standing in front of Rufus, who was lying on the bed like a prince."Sir, Miss Dolcie is going out for a moment. Is there anything else you'd like me to prepare?" the girl asked politely."Yes
"I love you, Aaron! Mmuaach! Open the door quickly! Don't make me wait!"Dolcie's words cut through Rufus' heart like a sharp knife. No! That wasn't enough!Her words hit Rufus like a bolt of lightning, shattering him to pieces.The man hadn't expected that the girl he loved with all his heart had given her love to someone else."Then what's the point of her kindness and generosity to me?" Rufus thought. At that moment, tears began to flow from the corners of his eyes.It was truly painful! Rufus felt completely shattered!"Why did you do this to me, Miss? You lifted me up with your beauty and kindness, only to throw me down now!" he thought.All this time he had thought that Dolcie had similar feelings for him and that she had only married Aaron because of an arranged marriage.But as it turned out, he was completely wrong!Rufus' tears flowed more intensely, but he tried to hold back any sobbing sounds.The serving girl, who was still in front of Rufus, was now confused. Why was thi
