EXCERPT.
"You have to come back, Lila. To me. You and our children". He whispered gently, his blue eyes filled with care towards me, his hands on my cheeks, stroking them softly.
I closed my eyes, rubbing my face against his palm, enjoying the texture. How I had longed so much for this.
"Our children? Remember Mr. Knight. I never married you neither are my bastard children yours". I commented, repeating his exact same words five years ago as the side of my lips curled up in disdain. 
I'm a photographer who has been specifically invited by Native Geographic to hike up Mount Morac in order to take a cover photo for the next issue.
Halfway up the mountain, I feel short of breath, and my heart keeps hammering in my chest. At the same time, I can feel my temples pulsing rapidly.
Realizing that these are the symptoms of altitude sickness, I quickly dig out an oxygen canister and inhale from it sharply.
But as soon as the gas hits my lungs, I realize that something is wrong. Immediately, I turn to look at my fiance, Julian Gray.
"What the hell is this?"
Strangely enough, my voice comes out shrill and high-pitched. I sound just like a cartoon character.
As soon as Julian and his junior colleague, Bianca Reed, hear my voice, they burst out in laughter.
"Ahahaha! Oh my god, you're too funny! Hahahah!"
Both of them holler in laughter. Bianca even starts hammering the snowy ground in a dramatic fashion.
I instantly realize that Julian and Bianca have secretly swapped out the life-saving oxygen canister to a helium canister instead just so they can pull a prank on me.
Once they finally have their fill of laughing at me, I manage to hiss out, "Give… Give me… the oxygen… canister…"
After Julian wipes his tears of laughter away, he waves a hand at me casually.
"Oh, Bianca's physically weak, so I've given her the oxygen canister. You're a strong one—just hang in there, and it'll pass soon enough."
I don't bother wasting my breath arguing with Julian. With trembling hands, I dig out a satellite phone.
"Mr. Perez, someone has maliciously switched out my oxygen canister to something else. I'm suffering from a severe case of altitude sickness right now. Please arrange for a rescue team to pick me up as soon as possible."

The moment I enter the office, I notice Tristan Godfrey's secretary, Scarlett Robertson, crouching under the desk.
She decides to tease Tristan on purpose, making him unable to school his features for a moment.
I place the documents before him, pretending not to notice anything.
"Here's the request for the funding for the western suburb project. Please sign this document."
Since Tristan is enduring the immense pleasure flaring from his lower body, he drops his signature on a couple of pages without even checking the fine details.
Then, he looks up at me, his eyes foggy with lust. "Wait… I thought your flight was tomorrow? Why are you back all of a sudden?"
I pick up the documents. "I'm here to deal with some urgent matters."
Before I turn around, I shoot a glance at the spot beneath the desk. "Tell her to come out."
Tristan is slightly stunned. He probably thinks that I'll do the same things I did before—intimidate Scarlett, tug at her hair, and take a video of her most vulnerable side.
But I merely add, "Her legs will go numb if she crouches under the desk for too long."
Knowing that he's in the wrong, Tristan quickly changes the subject. "What sort of urgent matters are you dealing with?"
I don't give him an answer. Instead, I close the door behind me and put up a "do not disturb" sign.
Tristan has no idea that I've just finished settling my urgent affairs. 
I'm taking a breather on a cruise ship in international waters when I stumble upon a scene that stops me cold. I see my younger sister surrounded at a poker table.Across from her stand her two so-called childhood friends, flanking a fragile-looking woman with a smug smile. Their voices drip with mockery when they speak."What's wrong, Ms. Jefferson? Can't keep up now? You were so bold just a minute ago, asking Reena for 500 thousand dollars over a headscarf.""You can fold," the other adds. "But the Jefferson family's 15% stake? That gets transferred to Reena first thing tomorrow."My sister's knuckles turn white, and her eyes brim with tears.Someone nearby laughs and loosens his tie. "Out of money, young lady? How about this—remove one piece of clothing, and I'll give you 500 chips."Whistles and jeers erupt around the table."Strip it all off, and my entire stack is yours."I remain still in the shadows of the upper deck, slowly twisting the signet ring on my finger.It's been a few years since I've shown my face—looks like this pack of filth has forgotten something.Touch anyone from the Stanford family, and you pay with your life.
