Chapter 2: Molina Sylvia

Dave, with his brown hair and light caramel eyes, glares the moment he knew who he bumps into. He was about to leave the woman there when Molina spoke.

"I guess being friends with an immoral person will make you lose your common sense " Molina's voice was clear as it was only the two of them in an empty hallway. There was disgust in her voice as she spoke.

" Glaring at me the moment you see me, tsk tsk. Rude much? did you learn that from that two-faced snake? "

" Shut up! " Dave turns to look angrily at Molina. A repulsed look on his face, as if being in the same room with her was the most unfortunate thing that had happened to him.

" Don't ever slander Diana with that disgusting mouth of yours " Dave continues.

Eve had look at him, if she could, she would have shown disappointment on her face the moment she sees Dave.

Dave Smith was Molina's childhood friend, someone who Molina thought would be by her side and will never let go of her hand. Forever friends and will be each other's support, but the sad reality was, Dave only need a few lines to be heard and a sad Diana to show that he was easily a fool, and a friend not worthy for Molina.

Eve internally rolled her eyes.

Time to harvest some points.

"Slander? " Molina laughs rudely. Her eyes were full of disappointment and mockery.

"Dave Smith, you poor unfortunate man. Was it the look of helplessness? The weak lady act? So you trust her more than your childhood friend? That's how foolish you are, one day you will realize how she's nothing but a lying, two-faced, bitc-- "

Before she could finish, Dave had slapped her face and Eve could feel the sting.

Molina had frozen in her place and looked at Dave in shock. Her hand cup the cheek that had gotten the harsh impact of her childhood friend's sudden action. Like some kind of rude awakening, Molina had shut up.

Since Molina has never been slapped in her entire life, not her crazy mother nor her irresponsible father.

"I used to pity you knowing aunt-- knowing that your mother, had lost her sanity and you lost your father's affection" a large hand suddenly grabs Molina's hair and pulls her head back, making her look up to the tall man whose eyes are full of animosity.

"Right now I feel disgusted knowing you were once my friend. I regret even knowing you, your nothing like Diana, you're an attention-seeking whore who cannot live without hurting others " Dave pushes Molina and doesn't flinch when she fell on the floor with a heavy impact.

His once warm caramel eyes that used to look at her with gently had long gone, years ago, that was how Dave Smith gaze at her. Nowadays, all traces of warmth are nowhere to be seen and only a cold piercing gaze would settle for her.

Molina watches as Dave walks away while she still sits in the carpeted hallway. Anyone who watched the scene would have snickered and thought she deserved that, Molina Sylvia was a hateful woman who deserves nothing more than to suffer for speaking rudely to Young Miss of the Graham Household, the kind and gentle Diana.

Molina might look pitiful but Eve wasn't too worried, and just stood up and patted invisible dust from her clothes. Her expression changed from the scared and shocked look to an unreadable one in a second.

System:
[ 1 points. Total of 10,000 accumulated points
Dave Smith's favorability for Molina Sylvia has decreased successfully.
Dave Smith 2/100.
Please continue to persevere]

"Truly a foolish boy " Eve whispers to herself, she then stands on her feet and fixed her expression knowing no one was around to hear and see her.

Eve thinks, these men around Molina and Diana, are easily swayed when you give them sweet words to savor and a chance to feel superior in front of them and others.

Dave was one of those who only tasted a bit of superiority and praises, with the Female Lead needing protection 24/7, it made most of the men feel like a sense of accomplishment have achieved when every time they save her from the people around and special feelings of themselves seeing a woman like Diana, who was "different from other women" were giving them attention.

Even rolled her eyes and gracefully run her fingers through her hair to push them back.

Already achieving her goal here, nothing else to do but to leave.

Eve walks back to the entrance and found the butler had just finished sending away Dave and had entered the hallway again.

She slows down as she walks down the stairs and rolls her eyes, Molina then walked past by the old butler and didn't wait for him to speak as she slams the door behind.

"Even if I'm not the original Molina, I know which person deserves to be ignored, taking your time with them will only give you momentary pleasure"

It doesn't matter, only a bigger success should matter

Eve says as she enters her car and revives the engine and drives away.

Luckily today was her day off and she could waste her time without worrying, Eve had window shop and visited the malls to eat or watch a movie. The whole morning and afternoon, all she did was make sure she stayed in character and be ready for any system notification but she realizes it wasn't notifying her completed task.
She tried acting like a short-tempered miss and made a small commotion only to leave the stores knowing the system isn't working.

Hmm, that's odd...

Eve didn't get to think much when she looks at her phone and saw the time.

Right, Molina needs a fancy dress.. time to pick up the dress

Leaving the mall entrance, she heads to the parking lot then to her car. She then drives away from the building heading to the expensive dressmaker's store that was popping out of her system notification.

Seeing the system working fine, she sighs in relief from her worries.

She thought something had happened, she wouldn't be able to handle it knowing she is clueless and powerless against the current system.

System:
[ Molina needs to buy a new expensive dress and meet Diana with Jonathan in Phoenix's Tailoring shop.
Points will be given when you act out: Jealousy, Anger, and Insensitive ]

There was still more time before the main event, this world was 67% complete, Eve needed to create a few more ruckuses to speed up the progress, gather points and get the hell out of this world.

To be ordered around every world, sometimes, a person cannot even stay sane in the end. Multiple personalities being absorbed for months and even years, Eve knew how this would affect her the moment she forgets herself and prolong acting in every world.
That's why she wants to finish everything quickly.

Eve arrives at the destination of the store just inside the famous and bustling fashion center of the city. She parked the car in the customer's parking area before turning off the engine and leaving the vehicle. Not even looking around the area filled with people on the streets, Eve leaves the car and headed straight inside the building.

The moment Eve enters the automatic sliding doors, she gets into character.
Her eyes were cold and her lips thinned. She oozes out the aura of a young miss that doesn't want to waste her time with trivialities. Her stride is long and graceful yet she had the look of arrogance on her face as she looks for the owner. She slightly combs her hair that has fallen on her shoulder and gently pushes it behind her as the ink-like strands brush back and settled beautifully straight. Not a single strand was out of place.

The room decorated with a warm glow from the lights and lamps around doesn't fit the woman who entered with a cold look, like a contrast to the welcoming atmosphere around, Molina presents herself in a sure cold and untouchable manner as she looks around without a care of the attention she gathered from the employees inside.

The desk clerks knew who this woman is and both immediately had a stiff smile.

The desk clerks greeted her with an incoming cold sweat on their forehead, but before they could even finish her welcome greeting. Molina looks at them up and down, as if judging their existence, and then her gaze fall to the desk which was empty of boxes that were usually the finished products were placed to be picked up.

Molina knew why this kind of thing happened but still gave them a cold stare.

" I don't want to waste my time here, wherever is my order? I need it now. " Eve wanted to sigh, Molina doesn't know how to interact with people so this is the most "polite" way of her speech the system can tolerate.

The lady behind the reception desk stiffened.

" Miss Molina, I'm sorry but there has been a small delay with your order, I hope our valued customer can wait as I check it with my colleagues in the other room " The receptionist looked like she was about to faint in fear.

Oh, she's scared, I guess I'm doing a good job then, Eve thought.

Molina isn't just cold, unsocial, and arrogant, she was also an impatient woman who doesn't stop for a moment and think.

Molina slams both hands on the desk and looks at the girls. Molina who can't hide her impatience and irritation doesn't realize two people had exited the door with one of the four master tailors of the establishment.

The three who just witnessed the scene of Molina's short temper had looked wary, disgusted, and concerned.
The tailor looked wary of the young miss, as he doesn't want his employees getting any abused by the angry-looking woman.

Jonathan Rohde, who came out the room with the tailor and a small woman, covered the young miss with his figure and looked at Molina with disgust.

Jonathan Rhode was a tall and slightly muscular man who was once Molina's arrange marriage partner. He was handsome, had blonde hair and blue eyes.

A man in his late 20s who is every women's desired bachelor of the business industry, and rich heir of the Rhodes silk trading company. He is a gentleman to every woman but only had gentle and warm eyes reserved to his sweetheart and love at first sight, Diana, and not to his marriage partner.

Jonathan ended his arrangement with Molina and tried to pursue Diana, making the young Sylvia become the ridicule to the circle of friends and a piece of gossip to those people around the industry.

Thinking about it made Eve's headache.

Diana found her step sibling angrily ordering to get her dress, her displeasure clear as day. Diana showed concerned and steps away from Jonathan's protective back.

"Big Sister!" Diana garners the attention of her angered half-sibling and the relieved gazes of two employees.

"Is there a problem? why are you scolding these ladies?" the smaller woman, steps closer and looked innocently at the two employees.

Diana Graham was Molina's step-sister. Who gained their father's favor the moment she appeared with her mother in their mansions. Molina was still 16 when she realized why her father never looked at her mother with warmth anymore.

Diana with blond hair like her mother had an innocent look of a woman in her 20s, she looked more western which she got from her mother. Of course, she looked beautiful but her heart, as what Molina truly knows, is full of hatred with an uncontrollable hidden scheming head on her shoulders.

She is what they say, a spiteful woman.

Before Eve had possessed this body, Molina was already unconscious inside the bathtub and had random medicines scattered on the bathroom floor, Molina was already in her 30s, she lost her father's favor, her mother had died, Diana gained the love and attention of the people around while Molina suffered from heartache and betrayal from the people who should have been her family and friends.

The bitter taste of reality was too harsh for her, the unlucky woman decided to end it all.

When Eve woke up in Molina's body, the painful memories rushed into her mind and the ache around her bones and muscles was felt. Eve would receive these things first as if it's to remind her and punish her, to exhaust her mentally to lose herself in a world that wasn't real.

When minutes pass and she finds the pain tolerable, she then looks around and saw the mess Molina left. Eve then realized she was sitting naked in the foamy bathtub water, muscles sore and body cold, she didn't think about it anymore and proceed to restart the time as the system showed a button.

[ RESTART ]

To restart was to bring back the past where it all went downhill. As it was what she had always done.

Eve had then returned to the past.
Molina's mother is alive, Diana still hasn't acquired the Graham Company, and Molina is now alive.

After that, Eve gathered this world information fully with a clear mind and realized the original host of the body was not supposed to die but her will to live had long diminished.

The system gave their transmigrator a chance to relive these lives. The New World Order wanted their soul to feel the misery and heartache, their goal was probably to reborn their soul into an obedient puppet.
After accumulating more than a thousand points, Eve realized the purpose of this world.

Back to the present, at the tailor shop.

Molina was looking at Diana at first but then she realized something was wrong. She opens her mouth but her brain was quicker to think and she realized a sudden error that the system made.

The system didn't notify any given points when she was throwing remarks at the employees.

Which the system should have announced usually.

Eve got surprised that even her expression showed something out of her character. Diana saw how Molina was quiet, the older sibling had suddenly retreated and straightened her back, she looks to the side and was thinking hard.

The moment Eve didn't hear any sound from the system, she started to have moments of fear. This expression showed again, and suddenly the system announced an unusual command.

System:

[ Warning! There has been a sudden unknown error in the system.]

Diana had never seen this expression on her ice-cold half-sibling's face. Her mother would always tell her to never interact with Molina because one day, her step sibling might harm her when they grow older.

Her mother's warning repeated on her head.

Jonathan couldn't stand the presence of Molina and gently takes away Diana.

He doesn't care what's the deal of this crazy woman was, he was once her playmate and had been her ex-fiancé but he doesn't linger to those past childish feelings, even their marriage was because of their parent's choice and not their own.

Jonathan's ocean blue eyes look down at the woman's side profile, his gaze full of loathing, and displeasure.

" I suggest that you leave this place, Miss Sylvia," Jonathan says and he steps forward, his tone heavy and cold.

" Did you followed us here? How crazy are you to be obsessed with me and Diana? Even throwing a fit inside this establishment like an entitled person? " Jonathan says but as he pauses to expect Molina's excuses, the result was not what he hopes for.

He watches as Molina ignores him and had turned her face away slightly to the side, she looked occupied as she thinks hard. Her sudden quietness was unexpected.

[Warning! There has been a sudden unknown error in the system.]

The previous task will be nullified and will also undergo a reboot, character action points will halt until further notice, the only points system that will be still active is world completion progress.]

[Warning! The system will now start to reboot]

" Molina! "
