Staring down at the man beneath her, she grabbed on to his chin and lifted his face. A devilish smile adorned her face.

"My Dear Valerie, all I want is to watch you cry."

The sparkling him who lives in the light would never pay attention to the her who is tainted.

The Apathetic Heiress who had it all— beauty, wealth, and intelligence. That's what everyone saw her as. But beyond that exterior, Valerie Davies was an insecure and paranoid girl who remained obsessed with her first love, Lucian Gray.

Valerie sounded enraged as though she was on the verge of losing control.

Lucian's eyes fell on Charlotte momentarily, and he understood that Charlotte was the one responsible for leaking this out. Lucian didn't mind. In fact, he found this to be convenient.

At that moment, he thought it was because of how she looked down on him.

But now he thought maybe the reason was something different. The way Valerie looked at this instant reminded him greatly of Rye. Then, Valerie's eyes fell on Lucian, and he could easily see that possessiveness.

He wanted to laugh at this moment. But he held himself back. He was almost deceived this time around as well. They shouldn't be different people, right? It was just Valerie playing with his head again.
