“Oh, watch your mouth. Don’t talk nonsense. If Mr.
Stephenson knows you’re gossiping behind his back, you may lose your job.” The other security guard reminded
him.
Therefore, the security guard who advised Lina earlier shut his mouth and stopped speaking.

the car to leave, she looked in the direction of the mansion.
‘Maybe… Katherine Jackson just went in for a while. Or

She felt as if the time between them had never passed. They were still the same people, loving each other
wholeheartedly!
She thought they could start over. She thought she could take a chance.
However, she was slapped in the face by the cruel reality even before she took the chance.
In the mansion, Hadwin Stephenson’s handsome face was distorted because of the pain. He knelt on the floor. His
