"What... What did you just say?" she asked bewildered.
Did I heard it right?
"Marry me." he repeated.
Maezhei went completely lifeless, before coughing fiercely, again. After finally managing to stop her coughing, she hurriedly looked at Zifan with intensity.
"Please translate!" she mouthed at him asking for help.
However, Zifan was also stunned. He was completely dazed.
"Big bro, what do you mean? You did not just offer her to marry you... right?" Zifan cautiously asked but Zake didn't even bother glancing at him. He was just staring intently at the girl seating on the hospital bed.
"Wait, d-don't tell me you've decided to repay me with your body because I saved Snowy?" Maezhei said falteringly.
Zake inclined his head slightly and thought about it for a while before he nodded, "You could say that."
Maezhei was dumbfounded.
Maybe I was not just shot in my shoulder. I think I h
Even though Maezhei's wound is not yet healed, she forces herself to get away with the Deguzs brothers especially to Zake. He's the most good looking guy I ever met, yes, but every time I heard his cold voice, and meet his intense eyes my knees will started to tremble! I get nervous and my heart beats erratically when he was near! He's scaring the hell out of me! It was traffic and it took her 45 minutes to arrive at Royale Hotel. She thanked the driver and went straight to their room. When she entered the room where they are staying, she saw Kath on the couch watching television while laughing. "And here I thought that you're very worried about me," she scoffed while looking at her friend in disbelief. "Zhei! What are you doing here? Are you okay now?" Kath immediately stood up upon seeing her. "Really, Kath? You're asking me, what am I doing here? I was shot and you didn't even bother to visit me in the hospital! You're even watching
Maezhei's target had always been the second female lead role. It was her manager who wanted her to play the lead role of this movie but she wanted to try a new role, the role of Krystal -- the second female lead. For this role, she had been preparing for two months, working hard to understand Krystal's feelings and the impression she gave, in order to impress the judges at just one glance. And honestly, it was really hard understanding her character. Fortunately, she had succeeded before the audition. Director Martin exclaimed after Maezhei left, "We tried so hard to find an actress that will suit for this role, and the moment we give up looking, she found us instead! And we found the perfect one! Even though she was a signed artist by Star Entertainment, her qualifications are very poor because she doesn't have a strong background, but I had never imagined that in just one glance, I could see Krystal in her. [Krys
"Big bro, you need to comeback immediately! Little White was out of control! He's breaking and destroying everything here!" Zifan said panickily. "What happened?" Zake asked in a low voice. He's currently in a meeting. "I don't know what happened! After he woke up, he started searching for something or someone. I don't know... he suddenly start throwing tantrums." Zifan started explaining. This was the first time that Little White Tiger had gone wild. And for sure, all the employees of Platinum Residence were trembling in fear right now! There were even some housemaids that passed out already! After hearing the whole story, Zake hang up the phone and immediately stood up. "Let's continue this meeting tomorrow. Meeting adjourned." he said expressionlessly and immediately stormed out of the conference room without even waiting for their response. Wi
The Platinum Residence was pretty far away, so if she drove her car, it would take forty minutes. Worried that it would take too long and something might happen to Little White, Maezhei got her Ducati Motorbike and sped over. When Maezhei was abroad, one of her past times was racing. So, using her motorbike was very convenient in a time like this. It would be faster than any other car. "Hey, do you have plans today?" "Not really why?" "Then, do you want to come with me to watch a car racing? Someone invited me and they gave me two tickets." Kath said. They were having breakfast at the moment. "What time?" she asked. "After lunch." Maezhei nodded, "Okay." "Really? Great!" she excitedly said. That one time invitation to watch a race was the start of her inter
Little White Tiger was like a little puppy that had found its owner ever since Maezhei had come. He let Maezhei lead him to the sofa obediently. Seeing this, Zifan was, again, speechless, "Just like that?" Zifan rubbed his eyes in case he is just seeing things. Both of them doesn't listen to anyone but they actually listen to Maezhei who they have known for just a short period of time?! Maezhei lightly caressed Little White Tiger's head, "What happened? Why is Little White causing a ruckus?" Zifan puffed up. "What else could the problem be? Little White Tiger misses and was looking for you but my brother didn't allow him. So, that resulted in Little White Tiger causing a ruckus, running around and breaking things. He even destroy my favorite car!" After saying that, Zifan pointed the latest Bugatti sports car outside that was disfigure. The car he pointed was the newest sports car and the most expensive one, the Bugatti Divo th
"I know this is a troublesome request, but I hope you can agree to it." Maezhei's head hurt. She didn't know how to answer him. "Please..." he added. *BAM* Zifan fell on the floor when he heard his brother. Damn. I think someone possessed my brother!!! Sh*t. Maezhei also muttered a curse. She then closed her eyes. If Zake had tried to use his power and forcibly asked this to her, she would reject it immediately. But he was asking so earnestly with no thought at all to his identity and position! And he was also sincerely pleading her... And... f*ck. He's freaking so handsome right now!! How is it possible to say no?! Maezhei's weakness was good looking people! Standing on the side, Zifan stared intently at his brother.
After that long breakfast with the Deguzs brothers, Maezhei hurriedly left saying that she still need to do some errands today even though she has no schedule for today. But she need to get her things on her condo and do some explaining to her friend. She's sure as hell that she would bombard her with questions so she should be ready for that. And she's right! Because right after she enter on their condo, she saw Kath casually sitting on the sofa while sipping on her mug. "Explain," Kath immediately said, not even glancing at her. She's looking at the turned off TV in front of her. Tsk. I knew it! She's waiting for me! "Can I enter first, remove my shoes, wear my slippers, and sit on the sofa?" she said sarcastically then rolled her eyes to her. Kath stood up then went closer to her then suddenly grab her wrist and forced her to sit on the sofa, "Now, tell me. How did you end up in the Platinum Residence? Did you really sleep with Zak
"Here," Dylan said, then placed a check on the table in front of her. Maezhei raised her head, glanced at the check on the table, then she looked at Dylan without emotions in her eyes. "What's that?" she asked, confused. "Ten million dollars," he answered. "Why are you giving me that?" she coldly asked. "Zhei, don't do anything that you will regret." "What do you mean?" she asked. "Give up the role of 'Ultimate Love'," he ordered. Maezhei put down her phone and looked at him with a disingenuous smile. "Oh? Tell me, did Silica ask you?" Dylan went silent. So, she was right. It's her again! F*ck. "Zhei, it's not like that. We only want what's best for you---" she cut him off. "Best for me? Or best for her?" she said sarcastical
"Maezhei, the producer, screen writer, and I are very pleased with you but reality is cruel. But money is one of the most important thing in making a movie. We need funds in order to do a movie. We pick whom to cast in a movie through audtition, yes, but we are not the only one who make decisions here..." Director Martin paused.As Maezhei listened, her heart sank like a stone falling to the bottom of the ocean. Had she been replaced after all? Then, why did the screen writer called her a while ago to go to the filming set tomorrow?"Yes, Chairman Dayone looked for me to replace you but..." the director continued to say. "But you were lucky, Maezhei. Another investor was very impressed with you, so make sure you do your best!""What... what did you just say?" she
"Rest here. I'll just make a call." Maezhei just nodded. Zake got out of her room and directly went to his study room. When he entered his office, he immediately call Zifan, "Come here tonight. I have something to discuss with you." Right after he said those sentence, he didn't wait for Zifan's reply and ended the call. He made some more calls and give instructions to them. After that, Zake went downstairs to give orders to the servants to make an early dinner. But he has not yet come down when he heard some noise coming from the kitchen. Maezhei tried to sleep again when Zake went out her room but everytime she tried to close her eyes, she kept on hearing the voice on her head.
"Dr. Silvestre, please." Zake said as he wriggled his hand out of the girl's embrace. However, even if he moved just an inch away from her, Maezhei became visibly distressed and tightened her grip, as if she was holding onto her only lifeline. The chief disciple got a clear glimpse of Maezhei's appearance, and a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes. This girl was so beautiful that even when she looked so weak and her cheeks were flushed, she was still extremely stunning. No wonder the great Zake Deguzs, who was said to be ruthless, and cold was so worried about her. I wonder what illness this girl's contracted?- the chief disciple thought. Zake looked at the elderly man and asked, "Could you take her pulse like this?" Dr. Silvestre coughed lightly, "I am afraid not. It'll affect the results." He thought he'd been called
Maezhei came back to the Platinum Residence. She thought she forgot about what happened that day but hearing his father's words "...shaming my Dayone family" and "her father's biggest embarassment", her memories all came back to her. Her video using drugs. The reason why she became her father's 'embarassment'. Silica and her has the same birthdate but they celebrated it separately. Silica's birthday was celebrated the day before their birthday. But it was just a scheme by Silica because that day, Maezhei was lured to a bar by her and was tricked by a group of people to try drugs. At that time, the house was filled with boys and girls using drugs. The scene looked very c
"Did you find any lead?" Zake asked without any expression on his face. He was seating on the sofa inside the private room of the hospital. His Grandma was still unconscious so he can't leave the hospital yet. "We're still locating her location----" Lawrence started explaining but he was interrupted when a phone started ringing. Zake reached out his phone on the coffee table and when he saw the name of the caller on the screen, without further ado, he answered the call. It was the investigator they hired to look for Doctor Z. "Mr. Deguzs, we’ve confirmed that Doctor Z has indeed returned to the States. And we have received news that she is coming to the hospital in town for an operation!" Zake's thin lips parted slightly. Hisface darken when he heard the investigator. Finally, they have found Doctor Z... After a few minutes he ended the call. He was about to give an order to Lawrence when an excited Zifan rushed
"Chairman Dayone," she called. Chairman Dayone looked at her with a heavy expression, extremely unhappy with the way she was dressed. "What are you wearing?" Chairman Dayone sneered. Maezhei looked down and smile sarcastically, "Heh. What am I wearing? Are you concerned of me now?" "Do you have no shame? Why are you competing with your sister? I am telling you! Stop this nonsense right now and give up your role!" he angrily scolded. Maezhei felt pain in her chest as soon as she heard him say those words. It's as if someone squeeze her heart that she can't breathe properly. She knew it! It's for Silica again! Maezhei's expression was cold as she glance at her so called 'father'. She chuckled and said, "Sister? Are you kidding me? She's not a real Dayone!" Chairman Dayone was abruptly in a rage, "Maezhei, what kind of words are you saying?!" Maezhei raised her brow. "Obviously, I'm speaking in a human language. Can't Chai
After the Opening Ceremony was the evening dinner. All the cast members, investors and special guests were gathered in the banquet hall, eating, drinking and getting to know one another. The atmosphere was very relaxed and lively. They were all happy chatting when Maezhei arrived. Seeing that Maezhei had arrived, the assistant director was the first to stand up and pull her over to his side, you could tell how satisfied he was with her. "Finally, our second female lead is here! Come, come sit down here," then he pulled a chair for her. "Speaking of which, isn't it such a coincidence that the two beauties of our cast both come from the same company and they even have the same surname, Dayone!" The screen writer exclaimed. 'Yeah. Same company, same surname, and same manager. what a f*cking coincidence!' - Maezhei sneered in her heart. "Alright, alright! The food is getting cold. Let's all dig in!" Director Martin uttered.
At that moment when Maezhei was being interviewed, Silica's nails were digging into her palms, and her face become so ugly that she was close to losing her composure. She then called her manager. "Why is she here? Didn't I tell you not to inform her about today's event?" she scolded. She had purposely let her manager inform Maezhei at the last minute to make her a laughing stock at the opening ceremony. However, she had never thought that it would result in her making a stunning appearance to the crowd instead! "Y-Yes," the manager stammered. "Then, why is she here?" Silica asked with gritted teeth. "I-I don't know! I informed the other employees not to inform her---" "Stupid! What kind of brain do you have? It's just a simple task but you can't even do it properly!!" she spat angrily. The manager just bowed her head and didn't argue anymore. 'Damn it, the outfit she was wearing was worth several millions. H
Director Martin had an expectant look on his face after he finished speaking. As expected, the reporters turned to look in the direction Director Martin indicated, and were all stunned silly. "This... isn't she too beautiful?!" - one of the reporters exclaimed. "Who is she? I've never seen her before." "She's the second female lead?" "I think she's quite... familiar." - one of the fans. "Me too! I think I've seen her before... Ah! She's an artist from Star Entertainment, Maezhei Dayone! Oh my god! She's so pretty!" "Maezhei Dayone? She's Maezhei Dayone? Sh*t! My brother's been talking about her! I didn't know she's this beautiful..." "She's stunning! She's so... gorgeous." Maezhei was wearing a magenta dress made out of lace. The cut of the dress perfectly emphasized her mesmerizing waistline, and the neckline exposed her elegant collarbone. The color was even harder to pull off than pure red. Although the desig
