Lily did not even realized when she got back to her apartment. As to how she got in? She didn’t remember. All she knew was that her heart was extremely hollow. Lily then let out a deep sigh and stared at her reflection in her bathroom mirror that revealed her state of mind: serene. It was as if she did not just help George Arison kidnap his own wife or destroy the son whom he didn’t love. And to be honest, Lily felt nothing. There was no sadness, guilt, joy or resentment. She then smiled at…

Another laughter followed, making Lily even more irritated. "Tell me everything that you know about the thing that I asked you to do," she asked, trying to change the topic. "Hmmm... well..."

George Arison stared at Lily, his face unfathomable. "I have what you want," he said as he recalled how Lily bravely accepted a deal from him just a day after Lilian Facci’s death.

"Ashamed of what?" she raised an eyebrow. "Who was the one sleeping around while being engaged to another? I also wonder which married woman was it who was sleeping around with her driver?" "How dare you!" Sofia rose from her seat and grabbed a glass of water in front of her with trembling hands. "Go on." Lily interrupted her. "Splash that water on me and we are done talking here." Lily’s words were enough to stop Sofia in her tracks as she glared hard at Lily before sitting back down on her…

"George! Don’t you dare leave me! George! Come back here!" Sofia yelled at her husband’s back that was moving further and further away from her before she collapsed on the floor. "Mother... Mother..." Liam immediately helped his mother up before easing her down slowly on the couch. He then signaled one of their servants to get him a glass of water. "What happened to Father? He is usually not this ruthless... What did you do that made him so angry?" Liam was there when his father and mother argued…

Lily was speechless. She stared wide-eyed at Fernando. "How dare you!" she shouted before she ran to fetch her handphone from her handbag. "No! Don’t call her." Fernando was quick to stop Lily.

"Are you surprised to see me?" Fernando smiled at Lily before he put a box of Mcdonald’s chicken bites on the small table in front of her. "Nuggets? Really?" Lily raised an eyebrow before she unceremoniously picked up a piece and shoved it in her mouth. "Gah... You love chicken bites. Stop pretending." Fernando rolled his eyes as he made himself comfortable on the couch and watch as Lily take off her high-heel shoes. "Did someone slap you?" He furrowed his brows when he noticed a pinkish mark on a…
