Third Person's POVDuring the party at Grim’s residence, Adam managed to sneak into the mansion.Meanwhile, Lawrence was busy handling the security system, while Adam was on a mission to locate the secret entrance to the underground area beneath the mansion."Hey, still no luck finding the entrance?" Lawrence's voice came through the earpiece in Adam's ear.Adam, frustrated with the bow-tie he was forced to wear, grumbled in response, "Do you have any idea how big this place is? If you're so impatient, why don't you come and help me out, you jerk!""If I come with you, who's going to watch the security system?" Adam retorted, imitating Lawrence's words silently."I can see your face on the CCTV," Lawrence teased.Adam spotted a nearby camera, grinned, and cheekily showed his middle finger.A faint chuckle came from the other end of the line, irritating Adam even more."Quit fooling around," Lawrence said with a laugh. "You're running out of time before the security system resets.""I
Third Person’s POVAdam had to put aside his ego just to remain in Brett's house. He understood that he needed to be obedient if he wanted to stay in a place where he could catch a glimpse of Agatha."But man, Brett can be so irritating," he muttered, removing his shirt and heading into the shower.After his refreshing bath, he stepped out with only a towel wrapped around his waist.With his wet, ebony hair cascading down, tiny droplets trickling down his chiseled abs, Adam exuded an irresistible allure that could make any woman weak in the knees. It seemed as though he effortlessly checked off every item on their wish list.As he ran his fingers through his jet-black hair, which resembled the enchanting night sky, his well-defined muscles flexed in his forearms. Not a single hair adorned his smooth, fair skin, making it gleam like freshly fallen snow. Women might hesitate to leave a mark on his body, fearing that even a simple kiss could make him blush.Unaware of his own captivating
Third Person’s POVBrett aimlessly wandered through his enormous house, his arms crossed. Suddenly, he came to a stop and let out a doubtful sigh. As he gazed at the floor, it seemed to blur more and more, his mind drifting away.He shut his eyes tightly. When he opened them again, the surroundings became clearer. It dawned on him that his true purpose for aimlessly walking was to find Agatha. He needed to see her face, to figure out what was causing his confusion."I just want to know if this is a passing feeling," he thought to himself.Brett was about to continue walking, but he paused when he felt a weight in his hand. He raised it up and stared at it with wide eyes. His vision narrowed as a certain memory flashed in his mind, but it was gone in an instant, leaving him unsure of what it was."That's strange," he muttered, slowly closing his hand. Somehow, he imagined someone holding onto him tightly. It felt odd because he knew that everyone had already left him, that no one would
Third Person’s POVVincent wanted to meet Agatha and talked. What would he say?He was uncertain about what to say when he finally met Agatha. Most importantly, he wanted to express his apologies for everything. However, the following morning, instead of Agatha, it was his ex-brother-in-law, Brett, who showed up to meet him."Hey, Vincent," Brett greeted.Vincent felt his chest tighten as he struggled to keep his emotions in check. His history with Brett was strained, to say the least. The fact that Brett harbored feelings for Olive, Lanceil's deceased wife and also his own stepsister, only added fuel to the fire.Brett's words echoed in Vincent's mind, "Our last conversation didn't go well."It was a bitter pill to swallow when Vincent discovered that his own father was responsible for Agatha's father's death and had even attempted to kill her. It felt like a cruel twist of fate for loving the wrong woman."I used Agatha to get close to Lanceil, that's the truth," Brett confessed. "B
Agatha’s POVI returned to Lanceil's condo to gather my belongings while he was away.'I'm not sure how I'll feel if I run into him again.'With a heavy suitcase, I packed up all my stuff. After finishing, I sat on the bed and took in the sight of the room I had called home for months.It used to feel strange, but now it made me sad to leave. I knew from the start that one day I would have to move on. When Lanceil and I shared our feelings, I had hoped to stay with him forever.But those hopes crumbled like dust in the wind. There was no way to salvage his trust and love.Dragging my luggage, I left the room. And as soon as I stepped outside, I saw someone unexpected.We both stood there, frozen in disbelief, gazing at each other like we had just seen a ghost."I..." Vincent whispered. "I've actually met Brett before."I expected him to complain about me not coming to meet him instead, but I knew Brett had a stronger reason to see him."My brother told me you were coming back to colle
