Chapter 1The Day Her Life Ended In Tears

She groaned when she felt a gentle shake on her shoulder. Pulling the blanket over her head, she mumbled incoherent words for her bedroom was flooded by the disgusting bright sunlight. She likes the sun. She considered herself a sun worshiper but right now, with barely any sleep, she can't deal with the brightness of her room.

Whoever disturbed her sleep would for sure get an earful from her, however, it has to wait for right now, she was too sleepy to care.

Her debut party was yesterday and it ended until morning—the after party of the party. The party proper was such a bore for she had to listen to some fake congratulatory words from her classmates that weren't really her close friends but came from an important family, thus, meriting an invitation. The rest of the guests were either her mother's friends from the modeling industry or her father's business associates. And they were such a bore!

The only time that she had a good time and actually enjoyed her own eighteenth birthday party, was when she and her close friends moved to a private suite that her father prepared for her in the same hotel where her 18th birthday was held. At her private party, she changed into the party dress that she actually liked, not chosen by her mother, she was with the people that she actually liked, not those that just had to be invited, and most especially, her father had surprised her with her favorite indie-pop bank—After Sex to perform at her private party.

Her party was such a riot, especially when her best friends, Susan and Tiffany started to flirt blatantly with all the members of the band. Thinking of her best friends, she threw the blanket that she was covering over her head off the bed.

"Your father was asking you to come to his study, miss." The maid who woke her up informed her politely.

"We are going to talk later but right now, I want you to leave." She said, pointing at the door.

"But, miss—" The maid gazed at her, almost begging.

"Out. Now!" Her father must have told the maid that she must go down at the study and pretended to be angry. But then, her father never got angry at her. Why would he? She's his only daughter and the sole heiress of his business empire—the Morgan's, a high-end clothing store, where all the Haute de Couture in the market were available, even before it hit their actual stores.

She scanned her room that could be easily mistaken as having been ransacked by some thief with how everything was thrown all over the floor. When she threw her blanket off her bed, she was left with nothing but her skin-tone panty. The dress that she wore in her after-party didn't need a bra and she wanted to be daring since she is now of legal age, that last night, she didn't bother to put a nipple patch on her titties.

Currently, she wasn't in need of a nipple patch. She needs to find her phone to check her SNS (Social Networking Site) to check how many likes and comments she got on her photos from last night.

When her foot reached the floor, she stepped on the second dress that she wore at her afterparty. The dress was a sequined mini-dress with a low-cut neckline. The neckline of the said dress was so low, it even showed her navel that was pierced. She got her navel pierced, a week before her debut in preparation for her trip to the Caribbean with her friends— for the post-after-after party of her debut since her friends will throw another party for her tonight.

She threaded carefully on the messy floor of her bedroom, still searching for her phone when it suddenly rang. She grabbed her pillow and threw it at the foot of her bed when she found her phone under it. Checking the screen of her phone, she saw the name of her boyfriend—Reagan.

She didn't really like him but he is the governor's son, good-looking, smart, and filthy rich. He's the perfect casual boyfriend. Someone that looks good next to her.

"Hello," she mumbled on her phone, making some grunting noises as if his call woke her up because she doesn't want to talk to him.

"Hello, sweetcakes! Are you ready for your party later?"

"If you'll give me enough sleep to get my beauty rest, I can assure you that I'll be ready for you later."

Her sassy reply elicited a peal of laughter from Reagan.

"Honey sugar, there is no way that you'll be ugly."

She rolled her eyes. No man is truly perfect. Despite all of Reagan's good attributes, she hated how he could spout a disgustingly cheesy endearment for her in his every sentence.

"You're right. But it won't stop me from getting my beauty sleep nonetheless." She yawned loudly, making sure that Reagan would hear at the other end.

"Yes, babycakes. I'll see you later."

"Bye," she mumbled under her breath. She uttered a silent prayer that Reagan finally took the hint and said goodbye before she threw up, hearing all the sleazy pet names he had for her.

She grabbed her school hoodie from the floor and put it on, never checking if the hoodie was cleaned or not. She slumped back on her bed, scrolling her SNS, grinning like she won the lottery—not like she still needs it. As the sole heiress of the Morgan's, she was set for a luxurious life from the day she was born.

She was still grinning like crazy, checking every photo of her debut online, reading every comment, and liking those that praised her party when she heard an incessant knock on her door. She was about to ignore it when she heard the voice of the maid from the other side of the door.

"Miss, please…your father is waiting for you in his study."

She clicked her tongue and swung her legs off the side of her bed. She had a feeling that the maid wouldn't leave her alone until she went to her father's study. She picked up a pair of cotton shorts hanging from the chair, put them on, and stomped her feet as she yanked the door open.

"I'm sorry, miss but—"

"You may go now."

The maid scurried away when she heard Robert's voice.

"Daddy!"

"Lilly, darling," her father cooed at her but the usual warmth from his voice was gone.

"Something the matter, dad?"

Robert looked over his shoulder before he pushed his daughter inside her bedroom and closed the door.

"What is it?" She crossed her arms over her chest, pouting her naturally red lips.

"I am sorry, Lilly, but you have to marry my friend's son!"

However, apart from the head of the household, Captain Kang, the rest of the family were all sweating on Kang Li's behalf, worried that the delicate and frail treasure of the house (sister, young aunt) wouldn't be able to handle the grievances of being a stepmother and might hurt herself from the stress. The villagers who knew about the Kang family's situation gathered together, spewing sour words and gossiping, especially those who bore no good will and were just waiting to see the Kang family's downfall. Yet, Kang Li's life after marriage was not only blissful, but her husband doted on her, her stepchildren adored her, calling her mom the moment they opened their mouths. They clung to her like people possessed, and the wife (stepmother) had them following her every step.

Devilish secretary

After centuries of ruling the underworld with terrifying power, Lilith dies in an epic battle, only to be reborn in the human world. But instead of a grand rebirth as a queen of darkness, she's reincarnated as something far more mundane—a secretary. Rather than despair, Lilith finds this new life amusing. After all, who would suspect the devil herself to be working a 9-to-5? Settling into her new reality, Lilith embraces her role, living in a luxurious apartment and working diligently in her office. Though her devilish instincts are hard to suppress, she's determined to be the perfect secretary. But when people push her too far, the devil within still comes out to play. When a creep in the office dares to look at her the wrong way, she calmly fixes her gaze on him. "You keep staring like that, and I'll show you what a broken wrist feels like." The man quickly scurries away, leaving Lilith with a satisfied smirk. Even the rich, entitled girl from accounting isn't safe from her wrath. "You think you can push me around just because you've got money? I've burned entire kingdoms for less. Don't test me." She says this with a calm smile, her eyes glinting dangerously. The day continued like that—stopping creeps in their tracks, putting rude heiresses in their place, and being the flawless secretary she intended to be. But, of course, her boss—the CEO—had his eyes on her, more curious than ever. And while the entire office might fear her or wonder about her, she remained blissfully indifferent. This was fun. And she wasn't here to impress anyone but herself. Who knew being a secretary could be so... interesting?
