2024-10-29 19:42:56"What are you doing here?" Austin asks with an intimidating voice. His eyes scan Jane as if she's a deadly virus.
"I... " Jane closes her eyes briefly. "I want to meet Richard."
Austin squints suspiciously. "What's the matter?"
"Mrs. Jane has business with me, Austin. Can you calm down? You're making the atmosphere suddenly uncomfortable here," Richard says with a wide smile. "Come in, ma'am. I've been waiting for you."
"I need to know what this woman is doing, Richard. Why are you acting like you're on her side?"
Talking to Austin indeed requires extra patience. "I'm on the side that pays my bills more," Richard jokes. "I've asked Paula to prepare some tea for you, ma'am. Please, have a seat here."
Austin grumbles disapproval, averting his gaze elsewhere, unwilling to pay much attention to Jane for too long. Useless, he thinks. Although the corner of his eye refuses to cooperate, where Jane tries to make herself comfortable on the sofa. His

Fabian checked the collection Irena brought. One by one, he examined and envisioned how these pieces would shimmer on the runway. What accessories he needed to add and who would be suitable to wear them.Indeed, the woman was perfect for his latest collection. He hadn't forgotten what happened that night. His memory drifted back to a moment when Fabian felt like he could get that woman."Are you blind?" Fabian yelled. He himself couldn't believe his booming voice. He intended to scare, but unfortunately, he got carried away. Maybe because Fabian felt like he had found what he was looking for.The woman had beautiful eyes. Just their gaze could captivate many. Not to mention, at a glance, he assessed how her slim and well-balanced figure exuded perfection in every aspect. Everything felt right.Perfect."Excuse us, Sir," Jane attempted to get up. After making sure that the child she hugged earlier didn't suffer any injuries, she also checked herself

Jane stared disbelievingly at the three sheets of paper Fabian handed her. Since she arrived at this futuristic and iconic building, she never expected to be handed something that made her heart skip a beat. She felt like her eyes were glued to the numbers written on those pages."This... can't be possible." Jane finally managed to speak. "Are you trying to extort me?" she asks, glaring at the man in front of her with frustration. "The repair costs can't possibly amount to this much."Fabian chuckled. "You forget, Miss, my car is the latest model Lamborghini. Limited edition. You can check the luxury car market and calculate its value. The damage you caused might seem trivial, but that pole damaged the engine and the dashboard pretty badly."Jane gaped wide-eyed."Do I need to ask for the electricity pole's accountability there?" Fabian leaned back comfortably, lighting a cigarette from his jacket pocket, ignoring the fact that the room might soon fill wi

Irena doesn’t blink at all. As soon as the woman comes out of the changing room, looking embarrassed and a bit uncomfortable in the clothes she’s wearing, it seems like she still hasn’t agreed with what just happened. Irena herself heard complaints and grumbling as she accompanied the woman around."I can't believe my eyes, Miss," Irena moves closer. Her eyes keep observing every detail of the dress that hugs Jane's slender figure. "You look so beautiful in this dress, Miss Olive," she genuinely compliments. "Ah...right, I forgot something. Just a moment."Jane blinks in confusion. She hasn't even said a word, including her protest against Fabian's ridiculous request. Unfortunately, she can’t just leave. Fabian really is playing with her emotions."What am I even doing here?" Jane mutters. In this dressing room, surrounded by large mirrors, there are many standing displays with dresses in various colors. Not to mention several accessories

Maria sighed deeply. Her eyes landed on the tray of lunch she had painstakingly prepared. No, Maria never complained about her job. It's just that this food was fuel for the body, right? If ignored, how could the body function as usual?"How is she?" Susi, one of the servers on the second floor, asked. For her, she only served rooms with grand, elegantly carved doors. The occupant of this room didn't want any disturbance."She doesn't want to touch anything. Madam chose to sleep, and I think she's already in a deep sleep," Maria replied.Susi groaned in frustration. "Madam could get even worse, Maria. You know that, right?"Maria nodded wearily. "She doesn't even want to enjoy the fruit I served. I don't know how to persuade Madam Kate anymore. I can't keep lying to her for too long."Susi clasped her hands, her eyes teary as she looked at Maria. "Madam Kate must be feeling so lost."Maria agreed with Susi's statement. "It's not just Madam K

"Hey, welcome to the club."Giselle beams at Jane. Jane isn't used to this kind of enthusiastic welcome. She hasn't agreed to anything yet, please understand, anything that Fabian might offer. She's reluctant even to reread the contract.She doesn't want to get involved in a world that will put her face out there, where life isn't just about enjoying tea at sunset or simply shopping at the supermarket without paparazzi. Just being Austin's wife is hassle enough with the news hounds. What if her life gets hunted and dissected even more? No, she can't imagine that. What Fabian is talking about isn't trivial. Who doesn't know the models and public figures under SEO Fashion's umbrella? Most of them have high names and popularity, some influential figures in entertainment and fashion shows. Including the woman welcoming Jane this evening. Suddenly her brown bayage hair becomes an icon this year. Her face portrays a gentle and friendly woman. The sparkle in her eyes exudes a strong sense of

Jane's eyes scan each of the beautiful girls in front of her, looking like angels. They're just casually sitting there, their gazes also full of interest in Jane. Somehow, Jane feels Fabian's request is pretty absurd."Look at the three of them. Imagine them wearing the dress that's currently clinging to your body. And give an assessment according to my, uh... color-savvy eyes."Fabian is out of line. Does he think Jane graduated from a fashion school? Been deeply involved in a world full of admiration and tight schedules? Oh, God! If only she could protest! Unfortunately, Jane can't do that. She's already been pushed out of the car, which stopped in front of the luxurious apartment.Shortly after, a girl picks her up, saying she's Fabian's messenger."How was it?" Giselle asks while casually flipping her hair."I don't know," Jane sighs. "I don't quite understand what Fabian wants."Harley laughs. "You really need to learn more about Fabian

Jane sits, trying to stay calm in the passenger seat of the red car, which is, once again, Fabian's. When she was brought to this apartment, it wasn't Fabian's beloved car that was used. Jane doesn't want to know when Fabian switched cars."How was it?" Fabian breaks the silence between them. It's been ten minutes, but Jane hasn't said a word. She even turned down the offer of just having a cup of coffee.What could Fabian offer Jane? Something that couldn't possibly be rejected? It's really hard for this woman with beautiful eyes to just nod and accept all of Fabian's invitations."What do you mean?" Jane asks, puzzled."Your day with Giselle? You met Harley and Ursula too, right?""I did."That's it! Oh my God! Is Jane some kind of rare species of woman? Even though Irena is her secretary, who still has boundaries and feels shy when talking, outside the office, Fabian often hears Irena being quite chatty. There's always something to discus

Nothing changed in Austin's life afterward. Everything remained as normal as it could be, but one thing made him feel like he was stepping into a wide-open space. No longer feeling cramped, and a lot of his burdens seemed to lift. He entered the Goojoo Enterprise building with light steps and a whistle, signaling he was in the best mood.Occasionally, he responds to greetings from employees scattered across several divisions. Most of them, Fabian barely knew. Wearing the Goojoo Enterprise badge, Fabian assumed they were his subordinates.Ignoring a few whispers, he heard while heading to the room on the twenty-fifth floor. Was there something off about his behavior this morning? Let Austin think for a moment. Ah... it's probably because he softened the stern expression he usually wore there. Replacing it with a slight smile and greeting.But was that weird? When a boss greeted their employees?Never mind. There were many things Austin had to think about r

Jane tightened the coat she was wearing a little. The road she was walking on was a little slippery, even though she was wearing boots and watching her step, she still had to be very careful. The air around her dropped a few degrees from what she expected."Are you okay?" asked Fabian as he fixed the scarf Jane was wearing."That question is for you, Fabian." Jane chuckled. Fabian's face was already very red from the cold that hit them."You're really out of your depth when it comes to the place you'd most like to visit." Fabian spluttered. Rubbing his hands even though he was wearing gloves."But this place is exotic, right?"Fabian could not disagree with Jane's words just now. Especially seeing the twinkle that wouldn't leave since they arrived at the airport closest to this place. no. not close, but within reach of the place where they spent their days and time together after becoming husband and wife.The trip to Tibet was tiring but Ja

Jane couldn't help but laugh. "Forgive Fabian then.""No!" Rosalyn shook her head. "After you are married, you must stay at our house. There's a lot we want to hear about your relationship. Oh, my God! Fabian was really testing my patience. Why else would Zephyr have such a troublesome brother like Fabian!"The woman wasn't really angry. Just grumbling about her brother's behavior which she thought was a bit out of line. More than anything, Rosalyn was happy and touched. There was nothing she could do but wish them both happiness. Although the relationship between her husband and Fabian was not blood, couldn't a brotherhood be formed because of the setting? After all, Zephyr's affection for Fabian was not a trivial matter.Rosalyn realized that."We will definitely visit often, Ros. I promise. I'll make Fabian obey me in visiting you."Rosalyn smiled brightly. "Ah..." she felt like pulling Jane into her arms but it was impossible. She might get ang

"Quiet look on your face, Olive," Ursula said casually, but at least this redheaded woman's arrival came with the mineral bottle Jane needed."Hey, you're talking out of your ass," Harvey retorted with a disapproving glint in his eye. It's so representative of Jane's expression that he has to keep his smile and the outfit he's wearing this afternoon. He wants to talk a lot but the tension that's engulfing him doesn't go away easily."Did you forget how tense you were before the ceremony to legalize marriage?" Harvey spoke again with a look that had not been released from Ursula. The insinuated one, meanwhile, just shrugged her shoulders without feeling guilty. His hand skillfully unscrewed the bottle cap and handed it to Jane.As she said, "Drink first, relieve the tension. It's even more tense in front of the priest. You're about to take your vows for life with Fabian. You know, that's the moment when you have to convince your heart whether you can live togethe

Austin stared for a long time at the cell phone that displayed news about his ex-wife. Many things had apparently been accomplished by the woman who once lived with him in the big house that was now much quieter. Not wanting any regrets, Austin chose to put the phone back in the drawer.Their last meeting, although it left quite a deep impression on Austin, still wouldn't change anything. everything that had happened, could not be regretted more deeply. It was useless. He also didn't want to dwell on what was present in his life. He had to keep going, right? There was no way he could stay in the same spot while lamenting why he could be so stupid as to give a judgment?"You deserve real happiness, not a false one that ends horribly when you're with me, Jane." Austin let out a long sigh. His eyes were firmly closed with his hands clenched. He shook his head softly as his mind suddenly replayed the memory of his ex-wife's presence in the house."At least God is st

"How was your honeymoon?" asked Giselle without any awkwardness. She was being helped to wear a peach-colored dress that wrapped her body gracefully. On the back, there was a large, well-embroidered ribbon decorated with beautiful maple leaves."Do I have to tell you in detail?" Ursula gave Harvey an ignorant glance. "You must be curious, right, Harvey?"The girl who was wearing brocade gloves just chuckled. Her eyes looked at Ursula through the reflection of the large mirror in front of her. "Aren't you the one who requested special teaching from me because you have no experience?"Ursula spluttered but then, looked up as if she was already an expert in the matter they were talking about. "But I can honestly say, I didn't use any of your advice."Harvey stuck out his tongue. "How could I!""Ask Richard directly how I acted in front of him.""I don't think it was Richard who pounced on Sula. It was the other way around." Giselle had finished

"Looks like he's busy with his cell phone." Brina giggled in the doorway of Giselle's room. Jane stood not far from her. In her hand was a tray of chicken soup and porridge that she had made for Giselle.Hoping that the girl's appetite would return and her health would gradually improve. But it seemed, from the slight crack in Giselle's door that was not closed tightly, it could already be seen that Giselle was fine.Minus her pretty face scowling with eyes focused on the cell phone."But if you wait outside, Giselle won't eat this soup." Jane smiled slightly and knocked lightly on Giselle's bedroom door. Suddenly, the girl was slightly startled and hid her cell phone.Just like a teenage girl who was caught doing something. But so be it. As long as nothing made Giselle sad or disappointed, Jane was happy."I hope you like my cooking."Giselle smiled widely. "When would I turn it down." She prepared to sit on the back of the bed. The blanket

"I just want to go home," Giselle said in a low tone but her eyes were full of pleading. Which made Jane sigh repeatedly. I don't know how many times she shook her head with excuses, but none of Jane's words were heard by Giselle."Until your IV bag runs out, Giselle. The doctor is very tolerant of that." Harvey spoke this time. There was an unspoken but clearly audible final tone that made Giselle look away."You're so stubborn!" Harvey scowled. He was getting a bit annoyed with Giselle's childish behavior this time. It was much more troublesome with Giselle's unreasonable behavior than Ursula's indulgence that sometimes made him uneasy.Brina, who had been accompanying Giselle, could only remain silent. It also seemed like she had given up on giving many words to the beautiful girl who was lying weak."Can you leave us alone?" asked Jane which made them all look at her in surprise. Which Jane greeted with a warm smile. "I want to talk to Giselle. You do

As the grand show approached, there was nothing much Jane could do. The four pillars of SEO were specially asked to participate in the event to commemorate SEO's eighth anniversary. For most people who are familiar with SEO's signature clothing pieces, this event is highly anticipated. Because there will be many surprises given by Fabian there.Including special discounts for the purchase of certain items.Who wouldn't be tempted? Plus being able to attend the event, which for this year opened up a much wider reach."The concept is really good," says Giselle as she enjoys Jane's fruit jelly. The trip to Long Island and then to Milan and back to the city center where she lives was quite draining. She felt like her body could collapse at any moment. And it also felt like she had a queasy stomach.The effects of a long trip were quite miserable for Giselle."You'd better get some rest, Giselle."

The wedding party, which was predicted to be the most luxurious party of the year, was very well organized. Not many problems occurred because Ursula hired the services of a leading WO and was known for her very high-flying hours at major celebrity events. This includes officials and influential people living in the country.The red-haired girl's smile was beautiful as she accompanied all the events that took place a few hours after the sacred vows between them were lovingly exchanged."I don't know who's lucky to get who," Harvey says, wiping the corners of his eyes. Beside him sat Giselle and Jane. He was in the middle of his two friends. Not only her, but her two friends also seemed to be moved by the bond that was now in Ursula's life."They're both lucky, Harvey," Giselle said with a big smile. "I'm so happy today to witness the beginning of Sula's happiness.""You're right." Jane chimed in. "I pray they are always blessed with happiness.""Ca
