 She woke up starving and when she opened her eyes, an adorable furry face met her and licked her face. 
"Ugh." She pushed the face of King then she looked at her husband leaning on the headboard while reading Fifty Shades Darker. "Baby?" She called and then she looked at the book one Fifty Shades of Grey. Is he done reading it? 
"Hey, baby." He patted her head. "Go back to sleep." 
"Why? I'm hungry." She sat up and looked at the dogs sleeping with them. "Why are you reading that?" She crawled to him and reached his crotch. 
"Hey, our babies are sleeping." He said indicating the dogs. 
"I want you…" She murmured. 
"I thought you were on your period." He said and continue reading. She pouted at him. 
"Baby, let's take the shower." 
"I thought you were hungry?" He closed the book and kissed her mouth. 
"I'm horny at the same time." 
 Their late lunch had already been settled in the dining room. They eat casually and talk about stuff and she opened about the sniper that has been killed inside her facility. It stirred up Zach's overprotectiveness. 
Even inside her facility, someone wanted to kill her. 
"Should I call your cousin Sabrina to give you bodyguards? Or I could ask Gabriel Lawson." 
"No. Darling, I can handle myself besides—it's fine. I understand that once I sat on my throne—people would be a big threat to me." 
 They finish their food and just let it on the table and soon their maids clean it up for them. They went back to their bed and cuddle on the window seat while he continued reading the book two that is near to end. He's fast reading and she does not doubt that he'll finish all the books for a few hours. 
 She reached her phone and call Andel but he's not answering at all. Where is this guy? 
*** 
 Andel has been searching online about the bidding of gems. On the other hand, Ellen is with him and she's searching at the same time. She clicked the link and show it to him. 
"This is luxurious, they just got it from mine and it would be cheaper before bidding. It's a real ruby stone." 
"Okay." He said and told the pilot to go directly to South Africa. 
"I have connections there." She told. 
 Andel looked at her and clapped his hand. 
"You are good at that, little girl. I am so glad that I brought you with me." 
"For the tenth time, do not call me little girl, Old Man!" She scolds him. 
 He exhales and massaged his head. 
"Continue searching, okay? I'm going to sleep." He reclined his chair. Just a few seconds passed, he had fallen asleep. 
*** 
 Moira clutches her pillow and suddenly frowned. An arm was wrapped around her, a face shoved on her nape and the breathing is slow and hot. She was sure that she slept on the couch. She's a light sleeper and she would probably feel that she has been moved or carried. She dragged his arm, but he tightens both of his arms around her. 
"Let's stay more… I can't seem to get up." He murmured. 
"Fuck you." She unclasped his arms and sat up. The man was fast as he pulled her down, grabbed her waist, pinning it above her head. 
 Her eyes dilated seeing him fully naked and she accidentally sees his lower thing. She shut her eyes and avoid his kiss. 
"For the love of God! Dress up!" She muttered. 
"Oh." He looked down at his thing and it's hard. "Don't mind my big buddy here." He said sexily and bent down to kiss that adorable frowning brows. "My lady… we will be together soon." 
"Fuck you." She scolds him. 
 Her blood races up to her head and she unclasped her wrists from him and pushed him. She drags the pillow and covers it on his thing. She exhales and brushes her fingers through her hair. 
"I thought that you are going to fuck me?" He asked quizzically. 
"Stay away!" She slid off from the bed and face him. "Leave my house." 
 He didn't move an inch and just looked at him with his hand over the pillow that covers his lower part. She was pacing back and forth. She needed to leave where this guy could not find her. Alanis blinked and was curious about what she's thinking. 
"Darling?" 
"Why can't you just leave me alone?" She asked him fiercely. 
"I like you." He said it casually. "You wanted to leave the country? Let's run away together." 
 She looked at him for a while and thought about it. 
"I will bring you to places that would make you happy." 
"Is that what you want?" She asked him.
"No, Darling. It is what you want." 
"Do I need to strip and fuck you so you could leave me alone?" 
"No. Darling, I don't want to fuck you. I want to make love to you." 
 Moira crossed her arms and thought about it. Is he crazy or something? Maybe once that she had sex with him—he will vanish. But she doubted that. He's an importunate asshole. 
"If I strip right now, are you going to leave?" 
"No." He leaned on the headboard of her Queen Bed, his stripped abdominal exposed together with his strong pectorals. He's like a Greek God looking at her. 
 Moira rolled her eyes. Okay, he's well built, and she thought that he would have a big stomach, drinking alcohol and sipping on tobacco. She inhaled and looked at him. He smiled and patted the space beside him. 
"Come here, Darling." 
 She shuddered and went to the bathroom. She suddenly thought about Andromeda's words. Sexual words and the Fifty Shades of Grey—full of shit but she got turned on. She was pacing back and forth and thought about his propositions. 
 Coming to him will be a bad idea but maybe if she show bad things to him, he wouldn't like her and he would eventually back out, right? She washed her face and gargle a non-sting mouthwash. She took a towel and dump it on her wet face. When she comes out, he's already dressed up. 
 He hasn't unbuttoned his shirt yet and he looked so dazzling. Anyway, he looked sexy and so handsome. She turned around and went to the kitchen. She drank warm water and an arm wrapped around her. She froze. The man sniffled her neck and kissed a few parts of it. 
"Where do you want to go? Japan?" He asked with a grin. "Jetplane is ready to go anytime." 
 Moira has never been hugged by someone like this. It felt—comforting. All her life no one comforts her. Grandpa told her many times to never seek comfort to anything for them to be strong enough. And he was partially right. 
 Getting comfort from someone is good. 
They stay like that for a while and she could see his assassins guarding him around her Penthouse. 
"We could shop around…" he muttered. 
"I change my mind. Let's run away to Paris." 
"Oh, city of love." He twisted her hips around to him and he started kissing her passionately. 




“What now? We didn’t make love on our wedding night. Now you are teasing me.” Zach said frustratedly. Andy peeked on the window and Allona wasn’t there anymore. She turned back from him and reached her phone but Zach grabbed her arm and make her face him. “Andy, are you pushing me to use that freedom card?”

                Andromeda faced him.

“I am not pushing you to use that. I don’t want to make love to you because you don’t love me. You can fuck anyone but not that bitch last night.” She grabbed his shirt. “I am warning you. You can fuck any woman but not her. You are mine now and no one can ever have you.” She said dangerously.

Only the clatter of the fork could be heard when Callea dropped it on the saucer. She didn't answer right away and kept on eating. She drank the juice while she observed the expectation in her boss' eyes as he watched her. "I am afraid it is a no, boss."

"But many fans are looking for you. These are loyal followers, Callea. You know, engagement is a big deal nowadays. They are hungry for your presence. I am sure your sales will go up the roof once you attend the event."

Her lips pressed together. They already agreed to maintain her air of mystery. But her boss wanted her to join the bandwagon that writers must engage with readers either online or in person. "I want to remain incognito. I am sorry, boss."

She bowed her head and she watched as her hand trembled on her lap. She didn't want to face people. She didn't know how to face tons of people without being afraid. In a book signing, she must look normal and interact like a normal person. She heard stories of how her boss makeover his writers to look the celebrity part.  It means showing her face to the public. Looking pretty again.

No way. She won't do that anymore.

He smiled sadly. "You can't blame a man for trying. I hope you will think about it, Callea. This incognito is starting to get old. Without engagement or presence in public, it would be a matter of time before your readers look for someone with a reachable branding. Someone they could talk to. Someone…. real."

Her head was still bowed down until Mattheu said his goodbyes. Marina showed her out. She didn't know who long she had been looking at her shaking hands while pondering the prospect of meeting people and her career on the line.

Where was her sense of gratitude to those people who appreciated her? Maybe if she was a normal person, she could attend that event. A part of her wanted to. But how would she do that if she was scared?

She heard footsteps and it stopped in front of her. "Who is that? Is that your suitor?"

She lifted her head and Deive was standing in front of her. He arrived from her Kuya Torque's farm. His skin looked beet red from staying from the sun. His face looked thunderous. "Ha?" she asked when she didn't get what he was saying at first.

"Who is that guy who just left in his flashy SUV? Is he your suitor?" he sneered. "What is his business coming here in his suit. Is he the one who brought the cake?" And he looked at the cake as if it was a gift from the devil.

He thought her boss was an admirer and his face was fifty shades of jealousy. She couldn't blame him because her boss was really dashing. He had a nice physique and almost as tall as Deive. He was successful and oozing with confidence even if he was only in his early thirties. And he was also a member of the exclusive Stallion Island Riding and Leisure Club that only the elites could join.

And Deive might revolt once he learned about her boss' portfolio. He might divert his jealousy on her precious cake. She didn't want to it go to waste.

"He's my publisher. He wants me to attend the book signing."

He calmed down and sat beside her. "Ah, I see. When is it?"

She shrugged her shoulders. "I am not interested. I am not going."

"That's too bad. Sidney showed me your Facebook page and blog reviews of your stories. Fans are clamoring for you. I mean, it is okay that you have this mysterious aura. But you know, you missed several book signings. Even a solo book signing would be fine for them. I am sure they will be happy if you will personally sign your books and you will get to talk to them. They really love you. If you will show up at the book signing, you can personally thank them. Can't you do it for your fans?"

She whined and closed her eyes. "Deive, you know I am not used to interacting with people especially to strangers."

"Why don't you try?"

She opened her eyes. "No. I don't want to be with a lot of people. I feel bare and vulnerable." She shooked her head and stood up. "I won't go. They should be satisfied to see my works. That's all I can share with them."

When she met Deieve's eyes, there was a challenge there. In the end, he just sighed. "Okay. I won't force you if you don't want to." He pecks a kiss on her forehead. "What else food did your publisher bring?"

She just smiled and called for Marina. But she didn't miss the sadness in Deive's eyes. Maybe he was frustrated that she wanted to hide from the world. She hoped that he would be patient with her and won't let her go.

An arranged marriage to a perfect bride.

To keep him in line, playboy Deive Hontiveros needs to marry Callea Lopez so he could start his own business. He thought he got lucky when he sees how beautiful and caring Callea is.

She lives in a haunted mansion though and he got plagued by a mysterious ghost of a woman and her cat from hell.

He must protect his bride at all cost. 

But what if Callea is one with the darkness?

A day like an other on JYPhig.



I was sitting on my place in our math clas reading in my notebook, I sudenly heard our techer sudenly yell "Inside" whit his loud yet stern voice , As I sruged and looked back into my note book lisening to the talk.


As I looked up I briefly caught his beateful chocolate eyes before he turned to teacher.

I've senced that everyone's eyes were on the new boy, except for me since I didn't care a bit I looked like a bad boy wearing a black leatherjack.

My attitude wasn't arrogant although everyone though I was selfish to everyone no one know I had a boy friend called Jea, I just focused on my notes and shrugged it of.

I heard to boy squeak a"Sorry, I was lost" I listened at his shy voice . 

"There is another place besides Jackson" i heard the teacher say as i looked up to see him pointed to me as I fastly looked dow to my book.

When he sat down on the chair next to me and puted his bag on the floor.

I was searching Assignment 15 in my notebook and saw him just look at his hands and didn't dear to say a work.

"Aren't you going to  introduce ourselves anymore, beautiful?"
I looked at him as he looked up in shock whit Fifty shades of red on hees sheeks.

"M-Mark tuan" 
He squeaked out of his mouth as his cheek become Fifty-Shades red but now with shame, yet I stil understood it. 

"Jackson wang"

I said as he blinked trying to probebly focus on what our techer was saying, what wasn't possible since he kept glancing to me I couldn't let to occasionally looke at mark what made him blush mandly. 

"C-Can I look into your book" 
He asked as I pushed his book to me so so we could both follow the lesson, I was grateful. 

"Assignment 15"
I said, as he blinked and looked at the assignment.

"Mr. Mark Tuan, I understand you want to make friends but you can do it after class."
I was shocked by the loud voice of the teacher who stood in front of the class I blinked.

What do you think about this special announcement? Comment below 👇. Drop a like emoji too👍

It's been thirty years since it happened but it feels like yesterday....... maybe that's what happens when you've just found out that you can live “FOREVER". 
I can't tell you my name or where am from,I can't disclose where I live......or at least used to live. I am monster yet the disgrace of my clan,I don't drink what they drink. I don't want to be like them,......I want to "die". Isn't that what human beings do? That will never happen,I know for sure. I AM NEVER GOING TO DIE. Maybe I will but this monster in me never will. 
Vampires are strong,scary and practically invincible but not this vampire! She does not like the taste of blood,mirrors, garlic,loves being in the sun and is the disgrace of her entire clan. What will happen to the young vampire who doesn't want to be a vampire.....

She stood by a wall,her shadow resting against the floor. She was about seventeen years old....or was she? She stood six feet tall,red hair, blue eyes and and lush red lips. She was wearing a black net blouse and black tights with black boots. Her whole demeanor was intimidating yet she was harmless. 
Most of her clan drank what she would never drink and do what she would never do. How much she hates the sight of red....used to be her favorite color but now...? How far can she run away from red or the sight and memory of it? She is red headed and her name means red and even her zodiac sign signifies red. This can't be a coincidence or can it? Is this where she really belongs? Is this the life she is made for. Can she really go back to her past life? How much she hates being stuck in two worlds?
She is a rebel in both her worlds,she will hunt you down if need be. But now she can't be so sure,she is weak and starving. She hasn't fed in years and it's wearing her out. She knows she can't stay long without blood but she is determined to starve herself to death. Too bad Vampires can't die....or don't die. How did things go wrong for the red haired Aodh Scarlett Flynn?
____________
She was born on the 21st of March,an Aries. She is Irish and American. She was born a twin. Her sister Ambrosia Tuesday Flynn was killed by an occult group during Halloween. Strange things aren't strange anymore as even the word is engraved in her story. All this... being a vampire and all. It all started thirty years ago.

Flashback,thirty years ago. 
.........This can't be happening to me-no,not at all. I had my whole life planned out in front of me,I was a rebel-yes but that didn't mean I didn't want a life. A life with Ian,I hadn't gotten my revenge with Arianna. I haven't avenged my sister's death. Too bad am about to join her. Too bad am getting crushed between two walls. The bricks fell and made a wall with a small crevice. I walked through the wall in an attempt to be with the others but it was too late, useless. The wall closed. I was trapped. Forever.

Luis arrived at Jeff's place exactly at the time they had agreed on. Luis was an advent timekeeper, and he didn't like getting late, especially for important things. He rang the doorbell at Jeff's place and patiently waited. Jeff's mom was the one who answered.

"Hi, are you Luis?" she greeted him warmly and he nodded, "Welcome, Jefferson says he will be with you in a few minutes."

Luis was shown into the house and waited for Jeff at the lounge. It did not take long for Jeff to come down. He had already heard Luis ringing the doorbell and did not want to keep him waiting.

Luis was not expecting Jeff to dress like that when he descended the staircase. He had worn a pair of khaki shorts that revealed his thighs and pressed tightly against his buttocks, a slim fit pullover and hair that had been visibly applied too much blowout. He stared at him for a second before commenting.

"You appear prepared for the occasion," 
Jeff flushed a shade of red and replied, "Thank you, I like to dress according the activity."

"I didn't know the library needed such a  outrageous outfit. You look like a gay man who's desperate for sex." It was Winnie, Jeff's older sister. She had a mission of making Jeff's life miserable and wasn't hesitant to do so when the chance came. Although she was really smart, Jeff tended to call her stupid whenever she interfered with his life.

"Well this gay man might just snatch your boyfriend so watch out," Jeff retorted. Fortunately for him, his loud mouth usually had just the right answer for her whenever she was overboard. Seeing that she was defeated, she stuck her tongue out at him and went ahead to the kitchen to prepare a snack. Jeff called out to his mom to tell her that they were leaving. Jeff was about to open the door when his mother called them back.

"Don't tell me you are leaving and yet I haven't prayed for you," she excused herself.

"Mom! No!" Jeff hissed at her. His mom, on seeing that, was clearly hurt but she didn't let it show for long. Instead she kissed them both goodbye, much to the shock of Luis, and led them outside. Luis waited until they were out of earshot.

"Why didn't you want your mom praying for us?"

"Trust me. Her prayers are long enough for us to go to the library and back in the evening. She would probably have started even asking for forgiveness for the sins of the cattle you keep in your ranch," Jeff answered lightly.

"How did you know we had a ranch?" asked Luis, surprised that Jeff knew and yet he didn't tell him.

"Ummm…" Jeff stalled, looking for an excuse. "Michelle told me. She said that all the girls that were mad about you actually did a research on you."

Luis halted. All of a sudden he started laughing so hard that Jeff wondered whether he had said something wrong.

"When you find a better excuse please come and lie to me again," he told Jeff, tears in his eyes. "Everyone in school knows that I'm gay."

Jeff felt like killing himself. He had just been caught lying. Lacking another answer to give him, he shrugged his shoulders and continued the journey with his head down, too ashamed to look at Luis.

They finally arrived at the library. They entered and went ahead to the reception to pay for the entrance fee. However, they found that the secretary was not yet at her station and had to wait until she came back from wherever she was. Finally she arrived, and greeted the boys asking what she could do for them.

"We would like to access the library please," Luis replied.

The secretary looked at them sadly and told them, "I'm sorry but your reading adventure has been interrupted today. The library is closed due to a book club function. I had put it on a poster outside, but I guess someone must have ripped it off the wind could have taken it." 

Luis and Jeff looked at each other and shook their heads. That would be the only chance they had of entering the library, as during the weekdays they were usually at school and the next Saturday was too far. Jeff decided he couldn't waste his chance. He turned to the secretary. 

"Excuse me my dear. Seeing how much your beautiful here and the way that Mac lipstick is perfect on you, will you please just allow us to use the library?" He flashed a set of puppy eyes that dropped the secretary's guard. He then moved close enough to her and whispered seductively. "We have a very urgent matter that we need to find out."

Luis was astonished to see the secretary's cheeks all pink as she blushed profusely. She looked up to both of them and smiled.

"Well I suppose I could let you in. The book club function is only on the second floor. Which part of the library are you going to?"

"The history section," Jeff replied sweetly. 

"Okay, you'll go to the far end, and then you'll climb the staircase up to the third floor. After they, go to the farthest end of that hall and on the right you'll see the History section," the secretary guided them. 

"Thank you," Jeff said and winked at her, causing the secretary to fan herself with a paper. They went ahead to the staircase.

"What was that?" asked Luis, as they walked up the stairs. 

"It's some superpower of mine," Jeff replied cheekily. "I just turn on the puppy eyes and boom! Someone's under my spell. I like to call it The Charm."

"Who do you use it on?"

"I don't mostly use it, but sometimes I use it on William's secretary to get free chocolate bars from the staffroom, or on Julliana whenever I haven't done my assignments so that she could let me go," Jeff naughtily replied. 

"Oh God!" Luis remarked and they started laughing. They suddenly kept quiet when the book club came into view. They could see some of the attendees hunched up at a corner reading a book. Both boys' eyebrows Rose after realising that the book was Fifty Shades Of Grey. They then tiptoed all the way to the third floor, hoping that no one would notice them. They heaved a sigh of relief after finally reaching the third floor.

"What kind of book club reads Fifty Shades Of Grey?" Luis exclaimed as they searched for the history section. 

"I could swear that I had seen the bulges of almost twenty men in there. Are they trying to convert it into an orgy?" Jeff remarked and they giggled. 

They finally found the History section. They then got into the searching of suitable books. Luis was the first to find one.

"Hey, I think I found one," Luis called at Jeff, waving a book titled 'The Fall of Gaffernon' 

"Gaffernon?"

"Yeah, but you do Geography so you wouldn't know. Although they don't teach us that in History until Grade Eleven," Luis explained. They sat at the library desks and began perusing through the book.

"Here," Jeff pointed to a paragraph and began reading it. 

"The myth about the Expiravit of Middlewood is perhaps the most common story that is used to explain what really happened to Gaffernon at that time. It is said that a young princess from afar had come to take back the invaluable Dragon Pearl Necklace from the then Queen, Gaia Smith. It is said that she was caught stealing it, and opted to jump out of the window rather than be locked in the dungeons. It is that fall that led to her death with spears piercing through her body. However a few days later, the King and Queen were reported to be missing, with nothing but blood stains on their bedroom. It was perceived that the princess had come back for her revenge, thus she earned the name Expiravit, Latin for 'ghost'. However, it is unclear what had happened the day of the disappearance, and after the people had shifted to the democratic government they opted to change the castle into something more appropriate and useful for the town, thus it was converted to a school, Algernon High, or what is known nowadays, Arabella Academy."

"Wait, so you mean I have been learning in a century-old castle?!" Jeff exclaimed.

"Could be even three centuries, it was a castle for the ruling families of Gaffernon," answered Luis.

"At this rate I might even find our house is older than that school."

They were interrupted by the sound of three people rushing from the stairs into their floor. They were two boys and a girl. Luis and Jeff instantly recognised them from Panterbaker High. They rushed to hide behind a bookshelf and watched silently as the three made their way into the corner. Then to Jeff and Luis' complete dismay, they began kissing and fondling each other as the two boys placed the girl on the table. Luis was further shocked when Jeff took out his phone and began recording the three, he gave him a shove and dragged him silently to the stairs where they eventually left, but not after a resistance from Jeff who wanted to get more footage of the three. 

"What was that for?" Luis asked as they both laughed at what they had just witnessed.

"You know we have a feud with those assholes. I just wanted some leverage," Jeff defended himself. "I knew that wasn't a book club."

They decided to go back home and rest, ready for tomorrow's regroup. Luis took Jeff home, and they stopped to say their goodbyes at the front gate.

"Now I know why Marcus likes to hang out with you. You're so much fun to be with," Luis confessed.

"Don't make me choose because you're going to be very disappointed," Jeff replied.

"If I would have been brave I would have approached you before he did"

"So you've been stalking me?" 

"No, but I've been seeing you," Luis said, giving Jeff one of his signature smiles. Jeff felt all energy leaving him at that smile.

'I'm never going to get over that smile,' he thought to himself.

"You're still a stalker."

"Call me whatever you want," Luis smirked.

"I guess it's time for me to go," Jeff sighed. "It's been beautiful, today I mean."

"Yeah," Luis replied, his blue eyes glowing. "Goodbye Jefferson."

"Don't call me Jefferson," Jeff joked. "No one calls me that except my mother." 

Jeff then entered his compound and walked up to the porch. He paused before knocking the door and turned back, hoping that whoever had brought him was looking back too.

And he wasn't disappointed.

[Book One of the Arabella Academy Series]

He didn't expect a murder to drastically change his life.

When a fellow student is brutally murdered in Arabella Academy, Marcus thought that it was an unfortunate incident that would soon be forgotten in the naturally peaceful life of Middlewood. However, his curiosity gets the better of him and upon being at the wrong place in the wrong time, realises that it's up to him and his friends to figure out why Sheila was killed. He dives into the detective business where after a few coincidences and a whole lot of bad luck, he discovers that the murder was tied to him in so many ways. This leads to a hunt to find the Dragon Pearl Necklace, a piece of jewellery which had been for so long nothing but a myth, and which will give an answer as to who really killed Sheila. The search for it reveals a lot about his life that he had never heard of, shifting his life to a completely different direction. Arabella Academy is no different, as many will come to realise its perfect nature was almost imperfect as the secrets that have been kept behind its walls are finally brought to light, one after the other. It is a journey which will change Marcus' life completely, and one in which he will experience support, pain, danger, heartbreak, betrayal, anger and endearing love.

The hunter becomes the hunted and the hunted becomes the hunter.

Will Marcus find the killer before he gets to him?

Modesty went downstairs to breakfast, feeling refreshed she loved Su Jin Wei's bathroom, it was huge there was a separate tub and shower. So Su Jin Wei could take a shower at the same time as she took a bath. Modesty paused at the bottom step, where had that thought come from? When did she start thinking of Su Jin Wei so much? Modesty made it to the bottom floor but wasn't sure where the dining room or the kitchen was. So she just tried to follow the smell of food. As she walked towards what she guessed was the dining room, she heard voices and paused by the door.

"Sir are you sure that we should have the young miss living here? You both are unmarried I don't think it's a good idea." 

Song Lei paused looking for the right words. 

"I'm afraid others wouldn't understand." 

Su Jin Wei shot Song Lei an icy look and the bodyguard immediately shut up bowing his head. Modesty didn't know what Song Lei meant by others understanding. What did he think was going to happen? Did he think she and Su Jin Wei were going to have orgies? Was he into BDSM like in that book fifty shades of something? Was the bodyguard scared that he was going to kill her? In her country, men and women cohabitate in non-intimate as well as intimate relationships all the time. Modesty didn't see the problem, but this country was so different from hers. 

Was the bodyguard scared that she would cause problems for him, or he for her? Modesty knew that Su Jin Wei was dangerous, and yet somehow he didn't scare her. 

"She will stay."

"Yes? Since you agreed to that price." Bei Mingxuan extended his hand. "Then you should give the secret manual to us."
"This is a little confusing, a little confusing. Hang on. Let's go through the sequence of events from the start." Hong Dali looked at Ling Xiaoyi. "Sister Xiaoyi, let's look at everything from the beginning, from when we got the secret manual. The recording is all available, right?"
Ling Xiaoyi nodded. "Yes, Young Master."
And so the recording was replayed. Once Hong Dali saw Bei Yuanqing throw the secret manual away, he nodded and said, "Hm, so this is what happened. Look at this, I did indeed sell the secret manual. However, this brother Yuanqing is very generous. He threw away the secret manual worth twenty billion dollars just like that. I even picked it up for him out of kindness. Yet, he just didn't want it. I thought that it was such a shame to throw away a secret manual just like that. Hence, I kept it. Right?"
Everyone in the Hong Family nodded in unison. "Right!"
Bei Yuanqing's face was as black as coal. His heart was bleeding! He threw the secret manual away himself! Himself!
Bei Mingxuan's heart was also bleeding—he destroyed the secret manual himself! Himself!
"Hence, based on common rules…" Hong Dali continued. "Old Bei, I have to check about this with you first. Ah right, I came from a rural village area. Where I came from, if someone doesn't want something and throws it away, other people can pick it up and make it their own item. I believe that this rule applies here as well. Your Bei Family is the royal family of the Royal Family. One of the three top families here, on the same level as my Hong Family. Hence, since you threw this item away, there's no way you'll throw your dignity away and ask for it back, right?"
Everyone in the Hong Family was amused now. They nodded and Hong Xingyu grinning widely. "Right, right. Since you threw it away, you naturally can't go back and ask for it again. What kind of manners is that?! If you threw it away, you threw it away. You can't ask for something back just because someone else has a use for it. At least the Hong Family will never be able to do something as embarrassing as that!"
Everyone in the Hong Family nodded in unison. "Right, right, right. We'll never do that!"
Bei Mingxuan and Zhu Yunzhou were even more annoyed now. Bei Yuanqing deeply regretted his decision. He even wanted to stab Hong Dali a few times to vent his anger—unfortunately, he was at the Hong Family now, and it was impossible for him to do that!
Bei Mingxuan squeezed out the words. "Yes, I have no intention of asking for the secret manual back. That's why I'm offering to buy it now!"
"Hm, I admire that." Hong Dali nodded, satisfied. "Hence, based on the current circumstances, you at least have some principles, better than what I imagined…"
Bei Mingxuan's face was deadly pale and he could not say anything. 
"So," Hong Dali continued, "since this book is mine, I should be able to do whatever I want with it. Let's continue to watch."
Soon, the camera angle changed to the one in the Elixir Room. Hong Xingyu was holding the book when Bei Mingxuan rushed in and tore the book into pieces.
"Ah, I finally understand now!" Hong Dali was enlightened as he saw this scene. He yelled at the top of his lungs. "Great-grandfather! He is the one who tore my secret manual into pieces. Great-grandfather, you must help me get justice! I want to make him pay! I want to make him pay!"
Everyone present was stunned! Those from the Hong Family watched with mouths wide open, while Bei Mingxuan, Zhu Yunzhou, and the rest stared in bewilderment as well!
They had seen shameless people before, but they really never saw someone as shameless as this! You picked up something that others abandoned, and now you're asking for compensation when they destroyed it?!
However, if you think about it, this logic is pretty invincible, right?!
You have to pay someone back if you broke their item, right? This is logical no matter what circumstances you are under. Hence, it made complete sense for Hong Dali to demand compensation from Bei Mingxuan and Zhu Yunzhou!
"Sweetheart, don't worry. Your great-grandmother will help you get it!" Hua Yueling stepped forward and stared at Bei Mingxuan and Zhu Yunzhou. She said eerily, "You tore my sweetheart's book apart. We can't let go of it just like that, right? Hurry and pay up!"
Pay… pay up?! Seriously pay up?!
Bei Mingxuan and Zhu Yunzhou shared a look. They both felt their scalps go numb. Bei Mingxuan was obviously scared. "Pay, pay how much?!" Once he said that he instantly had a horrible premonition. Hong Dali had previously said that this book was worth twenty billion dollars, could it be…
"Twenty billion!" Hong Dali wailed. "You guys agreed to it. You were willing to pay ten billion each. Combined together that's twenty billion to buy my book! That means my book is worth that amount! Yet you ruined my book! My book!!!"
He squatted down to pick up the paper pieces as he spoke.
However, how strong was Bei Mingxuan? He was a peak Star Sector level warrior! Was it possible to restore a book destroyed by him? A small piece might not even be the size of a single grain of rice… Hence, Hong Dali simply gathered all the pieces of paper together and held them in his palms. He stood in front of Bei Mingxuan and yelled, "My book was torn apart by you. You have to pay! You have to pay!"
This was some f**king invincible logic. Damn!
Bei Mingxuan felt a chill down his spine and took three steps backward. He even stuttered. "P-p-p-pay what?! This book was originally mine…"
As he said that, Hong Dali finished his sentence. "But you didn't want it anymore. I picked it up, so it's mine now!"
"Alright, alright, alright, alright—" Bei Mingxuan could not figure out any loopholes in Hong Dali's invincible logic. He truly panicked. "I'll pay you back, but I can't pay you so much. I bought it only for fifty million…"
Hong Dali was having none of it. "You bought it with fifty million, but that was a pornography book! Now the fifty million dollars pornography book has turned into the twenty billion dollars Star Sector-level secret martial arts training manual! You ruined it. You need to pay me twenty billion! Pay me twenty billion!" 
Everyone sucked in a cold breath!
What the heck. This logic is invincible, right?!
Hong Dali first sold it for fifty million dollars. Then Bei Yuanqing threw it away. When Hong Dali took it back, he discovered the secret manual. Then, Bei Mingxuan and Zhu Yunzhou personally said that they would buy the secret manual for twenty billion dollars. In the end, Bei Mingxuan tore the secret manual apart. So, the problem arose—this secret manual worth twenty billion dollars was torn apart by Bei Mingxuan. Nobody was blind and everyone saw that…
"Hehe, Bei Mingxuan, head of the Bei Family." Hua Yueling smiled coldly. "You're the head of one of the Big Three families, the Bei Family. It's only reasonable for you to pay up after destroying a child's item, right? Don't tell me you want to go back on your words?" 
Hm, an adult ruined a child's item. It was only reasonable for the adult to pay compensation. Was that not a common scene? An adult could accidentally break a child's toy and instantly take out money to appease the child. "Don't cry, don't cry, uncle will buy you another one…"
This scene was exactly the same.
Hong Dali was definitely a child in front of Bei Mingxuan. The pornography book did indeed belong to Hong Dali. You tore his book the moment you saw him, so naturally, you should pay up. As for how much? You personally said that you were willing to buy it for twenty billion dollars, so this book must be worth twenty billion dollars. So, if you want to pay up, you can only pay twenty billion dollars…
Bei Mingxuan wanted to kill himself.
The most aggrieving thing was that Hong Dali only spent one million dollars to buy this book. Then, his side spent fifty million dollars to buy it over just to trash it away. That was still acceptable, as fifty million was not a huge sum. He could just pretend that it was given away to a dog.
However, in such a short span, this book's value skyrocketed! Twenty billion dollars! And he tore it up! Tore it!
And now Hong Dali was asking him to pay!
Twenty billion dollars! Combined with the fifty million dollars meant that he spend twenty billion and fifty million dollars. What did he get in return? Completely useless and crumpled paper trash! Useless paper! There was nothing he could do with it!
It just so happened that there were so many people watching! They were watching! This was a live witness scene! He was the head of the Bei Family. How domineering was he when he arrived?! Could he go back on his words? Could he?!
Go back on his words? Twenty billion. If he really wanted to, perhaps it was possible. After all, he was not on good terms with the Hong Family. What could they do to him now…
Just as Bei Mingxuan thought about that, he suddenly remembered the recordings that Hong Dali mentioned before. Those were recordings where he was completely embarrassed. That matter was not yet settled. Could this guy be…
As expected, just as Bei Mingxuan wanted to request all the recordings to be deleted, Hong Dali suddenly exclaimed, "Aiya, Xiaoyi, I forgot about this just now. I 'accidentally' uploaded all the footage from the security cameras online in order to prevent someone from destroying the evidence. It's streaming live on the internet now! Aiyaya, this is bad. It's all out there now! Everyone's watching!" 
This guy released the footage where he was embarrassed?! They agreed to buy it for ten billion dollars. And it was streamed just like that?!
Everyone in the Hong Family was stunned. This guy was seriously a prodigal, but they liked him!
Bei Mingxuan felt a chill down his spine! He was in big trouble now! The entire Shenglong Royal Family could see it! All of the Royal Family! They could see his Bei Family and Zhu Family embarrassed by this Hong Dali alone! Embarrassed by him alone!
Not only that, another thought entered Bei Mingxuan's mind!
Since he tore Hong Dali's book apart, the footage of Hong Dali asking for compensation, could it be…
"Pay me for my book! Pay me for my book!" Hong Dali yelled, "Everyone saw you tearing my book apart. You said the price of the book yourself. The entire Shenglong Royal Family saw it. You can't go back on your words now! You can't leave just like that after tearing my book! Twenty billion dollars! You pay! You pay!"


"I have to squander; otherwise, won't it be a waste of my parent's talent at earning money?" Hong Dali answers a reporter's question matter-of-factly. 

Just after the interview ends, Hong Dali opens the Great Prodigal System's interface and looks at the various good stuff displayed in it. Stroking his chin, he mumbles to himself, "I just need to squander 200 billion yuan more to exchange for the blueprint of the core technology, Engine Destruction, found in the strongest humanoid mecha weapon, Neo Granzon. Looks like I'll have to work harder!"

"I want to splurge! I want to squander!"


I knocked on Mr. Boardmann's door. When he opened the door, his face lightened up and he held out his hands like he did yesterday. His hands appeared limp but they shook mine with force. I could feel my fingers being squashed to the bone. Like yesterday, I was the first to pull away. 

"Lila. I've missed you this morning." He spoke in a rather sedate tone which betrayed none of the more stirring emotions of yesterday. 

"Good evening, Mr. Boardmann." I said, mirroring his composed greeting. 

"I hope you slept a little better." I said, not really sure if I wanted to turn it into a question. 

"No nightmares for the first time in a month. What do you say?" He asked.

"That's good." I said. 

"I have to thank you for working your magic on me." He said. 

He made a sudden grasp for my hands again, and shook them with fervour. My fingers felt bruised. 

"It was hardly anything. I gave you a head massage. That was it." I said.

"Still, can you imagine all the difference it made to me?" He asked. 

It was not the deepness of his voice, but the withholding of some emotion which touched me. But I had no standard answer to that. In fact I did not have any standard answers to emotional questions.

"I have a list of places worthy to visit in this suburb." I said, instead. 

I handed him one of my standard notebooks. He took the book and he browsed through my research. 

"What the..." He said.

My heart nearly thumped out. What was wrong this time? How could it possibly go wrong?

"Goodness, Lila, you sorted out places based on your own invented scale- you call it the scale of emptiness. The higher up the scale, the emptier the place from tourists." He said, looking at me if I had gone completely crazy. 

"Yes, that's right." I said, wondering about the big fuss. 

He did not like crowded places, so I had compiled touristic places based on their emptiness and the corresponding off-peak times to visit.

He looked at my handwritten notebook again which ran into fifty pages, comprising fifty different places. 

"How did you find the time to do this?" He asked. 

"I had the whole day, Mr. Boardmann. Furthermore I did not feel like painting the walls today." I said, smiling a little. 

It was pure laziness. The poor walls had to wait another day to see dark shades of lilac gradually swirling upwards into pale lilac clouds.

"All this for me?" He asked. 

"Yes. I hoped that since you are new here, this might help. I had great fun compiling the list myself." I said. 

"You amaze me, Lila." He said, speaking like he was in awe.

I managed a little smile and then I looked haphazardly at the living room behind him. Personal attention made me feel uncomfortable.

All my life I came in second best or worst, neglected. It was difficult to acknowledge the turn of the tide for the odd situation. My momentum had not quite adjusted itself and I needed time.

I omitted to say that I had in my own notebook, a condensed version of what I gave him. I had a whole list of tourist hangouts should he ask again. Realizing that it seemed quite petty as if I were doing a school assignment, I convinced myself that I was not wasting time with this. Who knows if future clients were to ask similar questions? It could very well be the first time they set foot in this suburb. 

The penthouse suite building was new, after all. There were bound to be potential loaded clients from the city requiring escort services. These penthouse suites could double-up as hangouts away from their main home, giving them all the privacy they needed for clandestine one-night stands. 

I also had another topic of interest in my notebook. No staring at the piano! My personal interest shall not be a topic of discussion. I did not mix my personal life with work.

One last glance at him, one last glance at the penthouse suite, and then I was a minuscule creature below the grand marble arch entrance of the penthouse suite; the residence of the wealthy in the suburbs. 

Then I took a few steps further to the boulevard ahead of me. I dared not turn back for I might just change my mind and run back to his suite; knocking like crazy on his door, begging him to let me in.

The breeze became more volatile the further I left the boulevard. I walked towards the coastline. Sand made its way into my ballet flats, causing my skin to feel its rough friction against my flats, but I was too determined to be distracted by it. 

Then I walked towards the rising tide. I saw waves; its crests subtle and light in movement. 

Now, at the edge of land and sea, the sun had yet to shine and the moon yet to fade away. 

I felt that I was here; I knew I was here; I could feel my joy and my sorrow; everything and nothing flashed before me. I brushed the flapping shawl away from my chest and touched the icy cold moonstone at my neck. 

I felt the weight of the world in a tiny moonstone; a stone which had been with me throughout my life, dangling in front of me like a sacred pendant. 

Gazing at the stone, I knew I could no longer keep it. That time had passed. I wanted to move on, and the stone reminded me of all that was; the pain, the joy, the sorrow.
