“Please, my dear daughter, come closer,” Mr. Welthe gently beckoned, directing his finger towards her. The spotlight was directed towards her position.Applause filled the room as the crowd erupted in cheers. There were even those who expressed their congratulations. “I believe Mr. Welthe followed your advice,” Orion replied to her, his voice rising in volume due to the claps and congratulations.Livia experienced a sensation of deafness, despite the fact that she could hear her father’s voice with perfect clarity. Everyone is looking forward to her appearance on the make-up stage with her father. This is one of her greatest regrets from her first life. She is unable to see or meet her father because Letty did everything to prevent them from seeing or meeting.“Livia, what is it that you are waiting for? Come and join me here,” her father repeated.Her eyes were filled with tears, which slowly trickled down her cheeks. Flashing back, the memories of Letty’s actions towards her, knowin
Livia, unlike Letty, no longer indulges in the habit of incessantly boasting about wealth that does not belong to her. Her father has already had several people look into what happened to her before and why she is missing and cannot be found.Despite her reluctance, her father persistently urges her to accept the new ride he is offering. “However, Dad! I could simply borrow one of your cars right here! Why would one consider purchasing a brand new item?” Livia let out a sigh.Livia knew an old man who had a tender spot for her, and he often displayed a childlike demeanor when engaging in arguments with her. “Indeed, I am aware! However, my desire is for you to possess new possessions rather than those that have been passed down to you. You are a Welthe, and a Welthe will not be satisfied with simple things,” her father explained for the nth time.Her father, with unwavering determination, intends to present her with the shiny new key to a brand new automobile. He makes sure to mention
Livia’s face bears a few scratches, while her hands display some bruises. Fortunately, Orion intervened and put a stop to their actions. In the confines of her recently acquired office, she finds herself seated, observing the man’s countenance, which bears a striking resemblance to that of a person harboring murderous intentions.Orion wasted no time in contacting the authorities, swiftly calling the police to apprehend the trio whose actions had been witnessed by all. The dire consequences arose from not only angering her but also the person standing before her.The man appears to be lost in contemplation. “I’m fine now, Orion,” she assured him.The man quickly turned his focus towards her, causing her to instinctively recoil under his piercing stare. “I am the one who was injured. Why do you appear to be the one in pain?” She asked of the man. Orion became aware of the expression that adorned his face.With a hint of annoyance, he allowed his eyes to roll in a gesture of exasperatio
“Rion, you’re becoming accustomed to referring to me as your fiancée.” She cautioned Orion, “Try not to let it affect you too much,” as they entered the restaurant that the man had recommended.Her father will join them for lunch, and he is on his way to this location. A smirk graced Orion’s face as he looked at her. “I just like doing it, and you’re not stopping me, and I like seeing your ex-boyfriend’s expression,” he replied honestly to Livia.A deep sigh escaped from Livia’s lips. She muttered, feeling a sense of discomfort as her head began to ache. As the man gently placed his right arm around her shoulder, a member of the restaurant staff approached and inquired about their reservation. Orion introduced himself to the staff, who promptly guided them to their designated table.“Will you be removing your arms, or will you choose to keep them intact?” Livia gave Orion her well-known angry glare.With sudden swiftness, the man lifted his arms, as if to convey his surrender. Livia g
Livia’s life had seen brighter days. She is in the company of her father, who has showered her with abundant affection and indulgence. He bestowed upon her a multitude of possessions, most notably shares, a grand edifice, properties, and parcels of land, all registered under her esteemed appellation.In her splendid home, she resides within a grand mansion boasting an abundance of bedrooms, reminiscent of a regal palace. The opulent furnishings and exquisite materials employed in constructing this living space further enhance its majestic allure.Reluctantly, she had to acknowledge her father’s insistence, for being a Welthe meant she had no choice. Livia was dissatisfied with something her father had mentioned: the fact that Welthe’s entire estate would be bequeathed to her upon his passing.The mention of her father’s impending demise unsettled her, as she had experienced a similar situation in her first life. Her father simply chuckled at her, for he believed that death was an inev
“Am I going to die again?” As she stirred from her slumber, she found herself once more in a pristine, white environment. Curiosity filled her mind as she pondered the reason behind this recurring occurrence.Once before, she had experienced this feeling, and she, having been in this place before, knows it quite well. Livia bit her lower lip and cried. After finally reuniting with her father and finding some semblance of happiness, tragedy struck once more as she tragically passed away.She is not finished seeking vengeance for herself and those who have wronged her.“Livia, rest assured, you are still very much alive. Please refrain from being overly theatrical. You find yourself in this place because the individuals in positions of authority have expressed a desire to personally assess your situation.” Livia hastily wiped away her tears upon hearing the unmistakably familiar voice.However, her vision fails to capture his countenance. After the divine being uttered those words, a se
As her father stepped out of her hospital room to attend to a crucial business transaction, she found herself alone with Orion.For the past two days, she has been in the process of recuperation. Tomorrow, she will finally be discharged from the hospital. After spending a couple more days at their house, she will finally return to work.The departure of the old man left the two feeling a sense of awkwardness. Orion’s unwavering presence by her side only served to deepen her perplexity, particularly considering that their connection was supposedly limited to friendship.Livia found herself sitting idly, seeking a way to alleviate her boredom. In an effort to occupy her time, she decided to peruse her business emails and review her recent transactions. Additionally, she dials Romana, who is now her new secretary after Rebecca was fired from the workplace for incompetence and idleness.Having completed the task, she proceeded to switch on the television and indulge in the pleasure of wat
For a whole week, Livia was unable to catch a glimpse of Orion, and this absence did not bring her any joy. She had never been like this with George before. With the cheater before, she had never experienced such emotions.Livia finds herself reclining in the hammock, nestled within the expanse of their spacious garden. The garden, adorned with an array of vibrant flowers and lush plants, provides a serene backdrop for her much-needed respite. In the center, a magnificent fountain stands tall, its waters dancing gracefully to the rhythm of the wind. On the left side, a serene pond glistens, reflecting the beauty of its surroundings. On the right side, there is a hammock.After being healed, she took a week off at her father’s request to ensure she fully recovered.The culprit has managed to evade capture by the police, who are currently engaged in an ongoing investigation. This is due to the fact that the bomb in question is an improvised explosive device, which has added complexity t
