See you at the episodes! Good bye thanks for reading 💕
Episode 1
It was supposed to be a shopping day, but Eliana was currently enduring her fifth "tribute" of the week.
As the reigning belle of Indigo Bay Academy—a school where the tuition cost more than most people's homes—
Eliana was used to the trail of boys and girls following her like lost puppies.
She had the grades of a scholar and the face of an angel, but those who actually knew her understood the truth
Eliana was like a fallen apple. From a distance, she looked ripe and perfect; one bite, however, and you’d realize she was rotten to the core.
Back in the present, the man across from her wouldn’t stop talking
She had invited him here just to end the week-long stalking streak, but her patience was wearing dangerously thin.
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
Enough.
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
Just tell me what you want.
Jacob
I—I just... I wanted to say you’re the most beautiful girl I've ever—
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
I have a mirror, I’m aware.
She scanned him from head to toe. His watch was mid-range, his shoes were last season. He was wealthy by normal standards, but in Eliana's world, he was invisible.
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
What do you want from me?
Jacob
I've been wanting to ask...
Jacob
I really, really like you. I was hoping you’d give me a chance to—
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
No.
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
You aren't enough for me
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
I don’t date men who can’t afford my lifestyle. It’s a matter of logistics, really. *smiles*
Jacob's face fell into a mask of humiliation
Jacob
I... I can take you anywhere you want to go. Name the place—
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
*Chuckles* Can you really? You have no idea what you’re saying. You cannot afford me. *smiles*
She stood up, smoothing out her designer dress—a piece so exclusive it hadn't even hit the local boutiques yet
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
You’re a nice guy, Jacob
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
But 'nice' doesn't pay for the life I lead.
Without waiting for a response, she turned and walked out, leaving him with the check and a shattered ego. Once outside, she pulled out her phone and hit the speed dial.
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
Hey. I’m free. Let’s get back to the plan
Marisse Elaine Dela Vega
What? Already?!
Name: Marisse Elaine Dela Vega (FL Bff)
Age: 24
Birthday: March 12th
Status: Eldest daughter of the Dela Vega Family
Personality: Confident, sharp-tongued, and socially aware.
She understands status—but isn’t as obsessed with it as Eliana.
Marisse Elaine Dela Vega
Did you ruin that poor guy's life again? Honestly, Elly, when are you going to settle down?
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
I don't settle for less, Marisse. You know that *Scoffs*
Kiara Soleil Navarro
Damn, Elly
Name: Kiara Soleil Navarro (FL BFF)
Age: 24
Birthday: July 8th
Status: Only daughter of a nightlife and entertainment family
Personality: Bold, flirtatious, and thrill-seeking.
She loves attention, luxury, and chaos—but unlike Eliana, she enjoys the experience, not just the status.
Kiara Soleil Navarro
Your standards are so high you’re going to end up old and alone in a mansion! *chuckles*
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
Better a mansion than a studio apartment with a 'nice' guy *rolls eyes*
Eliana Sofia Harper (FL)
Now shut up and get to the mall. I have a credit card that needs exercising.
Kiara Soleil Navarro
Yes yes, we're on our way~
Marisse Elaine Dela Vega
Mall, here we come!!
Episode 2
Inside the top floor of Cromwell Entertainment, the silence was heavy. It felt like the air had been sucked out of the room, leaving only a cold, suffocating pressure.
At the center of the room stood a man in a tailored suit.
He was shaking so hard his knees nearly gave out. Sweat dripped down his forehead, but he didn't dare reach up to wipe it away. He kept his eyes glued to the floor, terrified of making eye contact with the four men sitting before him.
Zander sat at the head of the table. He was perfectly still, staring at the man as if he were looking through a ghost.
Evander sat to his right, looking way too relaxed. He had one leg crossed over the other, his fingers laced together on his lap.
Lysander was leaning back, lazily spinning a silver pen between his fingers, looking bored.
And Hunter... Hunter was smiling. That was the scariest part.
Zander Finn Cromwell (ML no.1)
Say it again. *Cold tone*
Ben
The… the shipment from Obsidian Routes. It never arrived, sir. *Nervous*
Ben
They were intercepted!
Ben
We—we’re still investigating—
Hunter Ian Cromwell (ML no. 4)
By who?
Hunter Ian Cromwell (ML no. 4)
Ghosts? *chuckles*
Ben
We suspect someone on the inside...
Ben
Someone must have leaked the route...! *sweating*
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
Internal? *smiles but in a threatening way*
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
So, you’re saying this wasn't just a mistake. It was a betrayal.
Zander Finn Cromwell (ML no.1)
*Scowls* Do you have any idea what those crates were worth? The contracts we lost because of your 'oversight' are worth 10 billion dollars.
Zander Finn Cromwell (ML no.1)
How do you plan to pay for that? Your entire life isn't worth a fraction of that number. *frowns*
Ben
I—I can find out who did it! Give me forty-eight hours! *Shaking*
Hunter stood up and went around Ben and whispered in his ear
Hunter Ian Cromwell (ML no. 4)
Forty-eight hours? That's a long time to keep a secret.
Hunter Ian Cromwell (ML no. 4)
*Grab his shoulder and grip tight* But we don't like waiting. And we really don't like losing money.
Zander Finn Cromwell (ML no.1)
You have until sunrise to give us a name. If you don't... *Glares at him*
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
Guards.
Two large men in black suits appeared from the shadows of the hallway. They grabbed the man by his arms, dragging him toward the elevator. He didn't even fight back; he just sobbed quietly until the doors hissed shut.
Lysander Knox Cromwell (ML no.3)
You think he's the one who leaked it?
Zander Finn Cromwell (ML no.1)
No. *Walks towards the window to look out the city*
Zander Finn Cromwell (ML no.1)
He's too stupid to be a mole. But he’s responsible for the failure. Find out who he's been talking to. If there's a leak in this company, I want it plugged. Permanently.
Hunter Ian Cromwell (ML no. 4)
*Grins while cracking his knuckles* Sounds fun~
Hunter Ian Cromwell (ML no. 4)
I'll gladly do it~
Zander Finn Cromwell (ML no.1)
What's next there?
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
*Picks up the tablet on the table* Three pending acquisitions. One resistance from a minor firm,
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
Irrelevant.
Lysander Knox Cromwell (ML no.3)
*Smirks* Everything’s irrelevant to you.
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
*Not looking up* Because it usually is.
Hunter Ian Cromwell (ML no. 4)
*Yawns* You’re all boring today.
Zander Finn Cromwell (ML no.1)
No
Zander Finn Cromwell (ML no.1)
You’re just easily entertained.
Hunter Ian Cromwell (ML no. 4)
*Grins* Of course I am
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
Hmm...Actually
Hunter Ian Cromwell (ML no. 4)
What, did you see something fun?~
Lysander Knox Cromwell (ML no.3)
Is there a beautiful woman?
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
You're such a womanizer bro
Lysander Knox Cromwell (ML no.3)
We're not that much different Ian. You treat everyone you see as your plaything to keep you entertained
Hunter Ian Cromwell (ML no. 4)
Pff- No I don't
Lysander Knox Cromwell (ML no.3)
Denial is a disease, don't let it get worse *smirks*
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
Enough. There’s an event tonight.
Lysander Knox Cromwell (ML no.3)
*Raise eyebrow* And?
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
A corporate celebration
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
Mid-tier, but the guest list is… interesting.
Hunter Ian Cromwell (ML no. 4)
*Grins* Define interesting.
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
*Smiles* People trying to be more than they are.
Zander Finn Cromwell (ML no.1)
Pointless
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
Maybe
Evander Silas Cromwell (ML no.2)
But those are often the most useful environments.
Lysander Knox Cromwell (ML no.3)
*chuckles* Desperate people are fun.
Hunter Ian Cromwell (ML no. 4)
*Grins* Desperate people are predictable.
Zander Finn Cromwell (ML no.1)
We’ll attend.
