" ... Master!"" ... Young Master!""Young Master, please stop your punches! You're going to kill him if you don't stop!"When Emilio regained consciousness, the teenager could see that one of the two bodyguards who had entered with him was trying to separate his body from the man who had been knocked unconscious by Emilio's punches. But when Emilio realized that the man was still breathing, he immediately tried again to finish the man off. In two previous lives, the man had planned Ariana's murder. And in this life, the man hurt Ariana again with both hands.As Emilio saw the big hands on Ariana's skin, Emilio could only think that the man wanted to kill Ariana again. Familiar faces overlapped when Emilio saw the man. Emilio didn't think he could forgive Marquis Daedalus, after what the man had done to Ariana so far."Let me kill him! He'll kill Ariana if I don't kill him this time!""Young Master!"As the commotion Emilio had caused reached Ian's ears, the Emilio family's driver imm

If someone were asked to briefly describe Ariana's life so far, they could probably only describe her as a poor, beautiful girl. Ariana had to live with an uncle who didn't hesitate to beat her whenever she disobeyed. And even though Ariana was born smart, she was forced to never go to school because of the strange arrangements made by her uncle.Ariana was not allowed to leave the house without his permission. She was also not allowed to do anything to her body, including cutting her hair like she did today.Throughout her life, Ariana had to live in fear because of her uncle's aggressive nature. Since childhood, Ariana has learned to be cautious so as not to upset her uncle and beat her again. But her uncle's obsession started to get angrier when he started to see Ariana differently this year. Her uncle started seeing Ariana as a grown woman, and that made it impossible for Ariana to get a good night's rest while he was home.Ariana thought she would never get a good night's sleep a

Due to Emilio's previous rude actions, things were a little awkward when Ariana and Emilio finally went downstairs for dinner. Emilio still accompanied Ariana to meet with her family. But because his feelings still hadn't calmed down due to Ariana's previous remarks, Emilio unconsciously kept quiet more because he was busy with his thoughts. Ariana also didn't dare to say much because of that. She followed Emilio obediently until the girl could finally see Emilio's parents.Although Melisa and Alister could not possibly lack the money to hire many servants, they had agreed to only hire servants who would go home when nighttime had come. Except for the times when Melisa and Alister both couldn't make it home so they had to call a servant to take care of Emilio, all the housework was done by the two of them at night. When Emilio and Ariana came down from the room upstairs, Melisa was preparing dinner with Alister helping to set the food on the dining table."Ah, sit down first, Kids. The

After eating, as Emilio had promised, the young man prepared to take Ariana shopping at the mall. But before they left, Emilio showed her the shopping bag he had brought home from school and handed it to Ariana."You can't possibly use Mother's oversized clothes to go out, Ariana. On the way home, I saw that these clothes seem to suit you. Let's see if you like it and are willing to wear it."Ariana took the shopping bag from Emilio's hand and immediately knew that the clothes Emilio had bought were expensive just from the soft and smooth material they used. Ariana subconsciously looked at Emilio without saying anything, and the young man immediately continued his speech in a hurried tone."Consider this my apology for ruining your shirt with the blood on my hands yesterday," he told her. Ariana knew Emilio only wanted to make her feel indebted. After all, the secondhand clothes she'd gotten from the discount store were no match for the expensive clothes Emilio had bought her."I unde

"Huft. I finally finished it ...."Ariana breathed a sigh of relief when she was finally done with all her tasks. By the time Ariana was done, it was seven o'clock in the evening. But unlike usual, Emilio's house remained quiet as no one had returned from their routine. Melisa and Alister both had business overseas, so they couldn't return for a few days. Meanwhile, Emilio had to come home late because of a group assignment that he had to complete immediately. Aunt May had also been home since sundown. So in the big penthouse, it was really just Ariana right now.When Ariana opened the new cell phone Melisa had bought her a few days ago, she only saw a message from Emilio complaining that she hadn't been able to go home yet. Ariana pondered for a long time. When there was no one to accompany her, Ariana finally realized that Emilio's house was cold without anyone to make it feel warm.Ariana looked down when she felt a light flutter from her stomach. Ariana had only eaten during lunch
