She reached for her phone, lying on the bed beside her. As her fingers swiped across the screen, she then remembered the mysterious gifter, FlibbityBoo. She had sent him a message the day she received the gifts, hoping to express her gratitude. With a flicker of anticipation, she opened her inbox.

Her heart sank for a moment as she was greeted with a sea of thousands of unread messages from her followers and admirers. She sighed and quickly typed FlibbityBoo into the search bar, relieved as the conversation thread popped up.

The message she had sent before stared back at her, untouched, unanswered. He never replied, she thought, a small wave of disappointment washing over her. She tapped on the chat box and hesitated for a moment, then typed a simple:

"Hello?”

Her thumb hovered over the send button for a second before pressing it. The message was sent, joining the previous one in silence.

Sierra placed the phone down and exhaled deeply, unaware of the coincidence surrounding her myste

    Celestine’s eyes widened. For a moment, she looked genuinely stunned. Then she shook her head lightly, as if trying to clear the sudden rush of thoughts.Elijah watched her for a second longer, then released her without another word. He turned away, walked back to the chair, and sat down calmly.“So,” he said evenly, “what’s the problem?”Celestine cleared her throat, straightening herself as she returned to her seat as well. “I’ll need you to escort me,” she said. “I’ll be traveling.”“Traveling?” Elijah frowned slightly. “Escort you? Why?”“Nothing serious,” she replied. “I just want you to be there. I’m attending a conference meeting, and I want you with me.”Elijah shook his head slowly. “That’s not possible. I just returned from a trip. I can’t travel anymore.”“You can,” Celestine said coolly. “Have you forgotten I’ve employed you? Meaning you can’t disobey what I request.”Elijah’s gaze hardened just a little. He shook his head again. “For this one, I’ll have to.” Then he added

    Elijah froze when he saw the caller ID.Celestine Valencia.How is she calling me immediately I arrived in the city?He let out a slow breath, then answered.“Hello.”Celestine’s voice came through, calm and unmistakably firm. “Elijah. Meet me.”He straightened slightly. “Meet you? Where? Why?”“At my house,” she replied. “I need to talk to you about something.”Elijah nodded faintly, though she couldn’t see it. “Alright. Let’s do it tomorrow then.”“No,” Celestine said without hesitation. “Today. Right now.”Elijah frowned. “Right now? Come on—I just returned from a trip. I’m still at the airport. I’m tired, I haven’t even gone home to rest.”“I’ll send a driver to pick you up,” she replied smoothly. “You can rest in the car on your way.”That made him pause.She hadn’t even acknowledged what he said—only adjusted around it.“No need,” Elijah replied shortly. “I’m coming.”He ended the call before she could say anything else.Elijah lowered the phone and looked at Felix. “Drive to th

    Shadow was about to answer when he said, “She was around just now. I guess she might be outside—”The door opened at that moment.Jessica walked in.She was dressed neatly, thoughtfully—nothing loud, but clearly chosen with care. Her hair was done, her posture composed. When her eyes landed on Elijah, dressed and ready with his bag by his side, she paused for half a second, then offered him a light, restrained smile.She didn’t go to him first.Instead, she walked straight to Phantom and wrapped her arms around him. “Uncle,” she said softly.Phantom chuckled under his breath and patted her back once, firm and protective. “You should take care of yourself,” he said. “If you need anything, give me a call.”She nodded. “I will.”Then she turned to Elijah. “By the way, I’ll go with you all to the airport.”Elijah let out a small chuckle. “You don’t have to stress yourself.”“No,” she said quickly, shaking her head. “My dad is driving, so there’s no problem joining.”Elijah looked at her f

    Jessica froze where she stood.The embarrassment hit her all at once. Her shoulders stiffened, her confidence draining away as reality settled in. Her lips trembled slightly, words catching behind them as she struggled to breathe evenly. She couldn’t bring herself to meet his eyes anymore.Slowly, her gaze dropped to the sand beneath the shallow water, waves washing over her feet like they were trying to pull the moment away.Her mouth shivered again before she finally spoke, her voice barely above the sound of the sea.“I love you.”Elijah stared at her, stunned, the words taking a moment to sink in. His brows drew together slowly as he searched her face.“Is that why you kissed me?” he asked quietly. “Is this the surprise you had for me?”Jessica nodded, immediately shaken. “I’m sorry,” she said quickly, her voice unsteady. “I didn’t plan it like this. I just—” She swallowed hard. “If I didn’t do it today, there was no guarantee I’d ever get the chance. You’re leaving. You’re always

    Jessica pulled neatly into an open space close to the line of palm trees and turned off the engine. For a moment, the music from outside filled the car completely, bass thudding through the doors like a second heartbeat.She stepped out first, stretching slightly, then Elijah followed, the sand crunching softly under his shoes as he closed the door behind him.The moment they moved away from the car, the **energy of the beach hit fully**.To their right, a group of young people had formed a loose circle around a portable speaker, laughing loudly as they danced barefoot in the sand, drinks lifted high, their shadows jumping with the rhythm. A few meters away, couples sat close to each other on spread-out towels, shoulders touching, fingers intertwined, murmuring things meant only for the two of them as the waves rolled in and out.Closer to the shoreline, children ran back and forth, shrieking whenever the water chased their feet, while a man knelt to help a little girl build a crooked

    As they got into Jessica’s car, she looked at Elijah and asked, “Do you want to drive?”Elijah smiled and shook his head. “Come on, no. It’s late, and I’m not familiar with the streets like that. You drive. By the way, are we going to that same stall as last time?”Jessica shook her head. “No. This is just a night drive. We can stop anywhere. Are you okay with that?”Elijah nodded. “No problem.”She started the car and drove out. After about ten minutes on the road, Jessica slowed down and stopped near a small spot where ice cream was being sold. “Let’s get some here.”Elijah nodded, and they both got down. They bought two ice creams, Jessica paid, and they returned to the car, eating quietly. “This tastes really nice,” she said.Elijah nodded in agreement, then looked at her. “So, what work do you do?”“I’m a student. We’re on holidays now,” Jessica replied. “Aside from that, I do online writing. I make some money from it—not much, but it’s good for me.”“That’s very nice,” Elijah sa
