Eighteen Again: The CEO's Wife was a Delinquent

In order to be loved, she changed her whole personality, but all she got in return was a cold husband and her unrequited feelings. Now that she lost her memories and went back to her old self, she's determined to never love again. She wouldn't let anyone trample on her anymore. But then, why is her husband coming back around again - turning over a new leaf and wanting to take her back so desperately? "You should know well by now, my beloved wife. Didn't you change yourself for love...?" he muttered vehemently, voice low and smoky. His unwavering eyes are blazing with passion and a deep sense of endearment that she'd never seen before. This isn't her husband at all - instead of cold, his gaze appears to be on fire. "The same goes for me... So, love me, love me not - you're going to take responsibility." --- Impassive, strait-laced, stiff and very compliant - that's how everyone sees Cassidy Eleanor. She's an underdog wife who's desperate to gain her husband's affection and would even sacrifice her own freedom. Coming from an unknown background, she was neglected by her spouse, persecuted by his family, and misjudged in her workplace. That's all until it came to a point when she already had enough. In an effort to flee from the clutches of a loveless marriage and all the obligations that were forced on her, she got herself a ticket and boarded a plane. Little did she know that a bombing incident would ultimately ruin her plan to start anew. Then, before she knew it, she woke up to find herself with a type of amnesia that caused her to forget everything that happened to her when she's past the age of eighteen-years-old. To be exact, Cassidy had gone back to her old self - right before she met her husband, Adrian Millicent. --- Cold, distant, steely and iron-willed - that's how everyone sees the owner of the country's richest conglomerate. Adrian is known to be a prodigious figure in a variety of fields and commerce, a prestigious individual with billions of assets, and a man of outstanding achievements overall. He used to be the most-sought-after bachelor of the country, but only to get in an arranged marriage by his grandparent - with a woman of unknown origin, to boot. He really couldn't care less, though. After all, he never needed love to begin with. That's all until Adrian found this reserved and amenable wife of his acting like a wild and boisterous teenage girl one day. -- WFP #23 Gold Tier Winner -- [Warning: Mature Content] (Cover Photo Not Mine: Credits to the original artist) - Follow me on Instagram (acieetin) - DM me on Discord (Aciee#1841)

The Light that She Became

Cassidy used to be known not only as a consistent MVP in gang fights, fist fights or any street fight out there, but she's also a frequently proclaimed Champion in a number of street sports.

Apart from bicycling and motorbiking, she's quite skilled in using a skateboard and making a spectacle out of it. She recalls that she would always hog the spotlight to herself whenever she's the one in the skating rink.

"Oh, the good old days~" Cassidy mused out loud, spreading a reminiscing smile and putting her arms on the back of her head in a relaxed manner.

She's still on the roll at this moment, resuming her house tour but with a different mean this time. All the while, she keeps gathering attention in every place she strides in.

"Look! There she is!"

"Go get her!"

"Do it fast! Else, she might slip away again!"

While the mistress of the house is taking it all cool and easy, the houseworkers are now in frenzy. Maids and manservants alike - anyone she breezes by will swerve their heads to her direction before getting taken aback by the group of people who keeps running after her.

To say that it's one nonplussing scene will be an understatement.

As she keeps skating down from one hallway to another, there is at least one person who'll try to stop her but to no avail. Some are able to catch up to her, begging her to step on her brakes already, but she just picks up her speed every time.

She's letting all their shouts and calls fall on deaf ears on purpose, not wanting to be rid of the only fun she's able to have her hands on in this whole afternoon.

"I thought you guys aren't paying any attention to me. What's with this change of heart?" she teased with a carefree smirk, amused by how she's starting to flip over the whole manor with just one act.

The persisting, deafening silence in the mansion has been blasted away in just a matter of minutes.

As this dainty figure of a woman just rolls on and on, life and colors seem to have returned to that dull and boring place. Lively voices are heard at last and boisterous noises fill the halls, blowing away the enduring dead air -

Or so, that's how the head housemaid and butler see this entire comical scene.

The two heads of this mansion's houseworkers serve as the highest superiors among all the maids and manservants here. At the same time, they are also some of the employees who have the longest history of working under the Millicent's.

"Mia, what are you thinking now?" asked the butler as the two of them just continued watching the scene from the ground floor.

He's this spruce gentleman in his fifty's, wearing a typical butler formal suit with a black tie and jacket. White strands are already sticking out in his well-groomed black hair, though his tawny brown irises remain as vivid as a youngster's.

"Perhaps, the same as you, Anthony," simply answered his co-worker.

The head housemaid shares the same age as the butler. She's this dark-haired woman with celeste blue orbs and a few visible wrinkles on her face.

Cassidy and her pursuers are now on their way down to the first floor of the mansion where the enormous lobby can be found.

She's skating right beside the balustrades, letting everyone from below have a good look on her. The houseworkers, along with the head maid and butler, are quietly spectating the scene with mixed reactions - stupefaction evidently as the dominant one.

"Oh, a slide...! Cassidy enthused with a beam the moment she saw the staircase.

She then turns her head to look back at the maids and manservants who are still chasing after her. For the nth time that day, they're all taken aback to find her smirking knowingly, mischief dancing on her frame.

"So long, suckers...!" she then exclaimed out of nowhere, nonplussing them even more.

With one, majestic flip, Cassidy jumps along with the skateboard and hops on the handrails of the stairs. She proceeds to make a dive for it and glides down smoothly and flawlessly, making everyone gape in astonishment.

From that moment on, all of the people in the mansion know for sure - their mistress is certainly no longer the same demure lady that she used to be before.

Cassidy makes one last flip as soon as she reaches the end of the stairs. The way she does it underneath the huge chandelier makes it look like she's really on the spotlight.

But then, even the stupendous chandelier and the pool of coruscant luminescene that's cloaking her body at that moment can't ever match up to how bright and bubbly her smile is.

Along with everyone else, both Mia and Anthony can't peel their eyes off of her. It's as if they're seeing the best that this prominent household can bring to its people - after a long while, that is.

"You know what, Mia..." the butler started once more, smirking meaningfully all the while.

"With how bright of a light that she had suddenly become, I don't think everyone can still continue ignoring her."
