"I never betrayed you, and I never will. I understand fully that i'm married to you, and I will always be on your side. I Didn't seduce Jacob. What happened was that Sophia pushed me the other day, and Jacob caught me just when l was about to fall over. Sophia took a photo and.." She sneezed again as she explained. She sounded weak and shivered in his embrace."As long as I'm your wife, I will never betray you.." she continued.Xenon looked at her into her eyes for a while, then put her back down on the sofa. "Alright, I will believe you this time. Go get ready. It's almost time to go to work. Kevin will drive you to the company in twenty minutes."Miya nodded and watched him walk out into the garden. She heaved a sigh and dragged herself into her room for a quick shower.On the way to work, she couldn't stop sneezing and started coughing nòw and then. Kevin feltsorry for her. "Mrs. Uba, shall I take you to the hospital first?" he suggested.Thanks, Kevin, but I'm ok. I don't want to

This was the first time that Miya had time for herself in a week, and she was thinking of going to see her mother, however, she didn't want to Worry her mother nor give her the cold. She hesitated for a bit and decided to go back to Home for Sol.As soon as she got home, she went straight into her room and went to bed. When the maid came to ask her to have dinner at half-past seven, she muttered that she wasn't hungry and skipped dinner.***Meanwhile, Jodie was now in Sean's car. She was actually thrown into his car by Sean."Uncle Sean, how come you have so much time to 'care for' me? You must have a lot of work to do running such a big company. "Jodie asked, pouting her lips."Aren't you going to the pubs with that group of so-called friends again?""They are good friends." Jodie defended."Just a bunch of useless young people that waste time doing nothing all day.""Huh. What were you doing when you were at our age then?" Jodie pouted her lips."Are you suggesting i'm much older t

It was almost midnight, and if Sean was seen in Jodie's room, surely people would wonder and talk. isn't he doing it on purpose? Jodie thought."So what?" Sean said indifferently."Uncle Sean, please remember that legally I'm your adopted daughter, though your parents request me to call you uncle.""We are only twelve years apart.""But... but legally, I'm your daughter and.."Before Jodie could finish her sentence, Sean shut her up by plantinga kiss on her lips. It startled her at first, and soon she had to surrender to his melting kiss. It wasn't until she felt like she couldn't breathe did Sean release her.She gazed at him, breathing fast and heavily. "Uncle Sean, you can't...""Can't I? You loved kissing me when you were little. Why? No you don't like it anymore?""It's not the same. What we are doing now is...is..immor..." the word 'immoral' was swallowed by Sean's sudden kiss again. How his tongue swam around her mouth excitedJodie so much that she forgot to breathe, and when s

Jodie had a few yawns or pretended to, to imply that she was tired and sleepy. Jenny took the hint and said good night. As soon as Jodie closed the door and turned around, she saw Sean standing right in front of her, holding her pink underwear in one hand, and smiled cheekily."Wear this tomorrow." He said. Jodie blushed and covered her cheeks with her hands. "Sean!"She exclaimed.Sean threw the underwear onto Jodie's bed casually and whispered 'sweet dreams" into her ear as he walked past her and left her room.Lying on the bed, Jodie couldn't help recalling the kisses and touches from Sean and smiled contentedly. Is this what falling in love is like? She wondered and slowly fell into her dreamland.Xenon had just finished a confidential meeting with Jacob and a few managers about annimportant investment. When he got back home, he felt his head ache terribly.He had hardly slept last night and had been working all day today.Kevin could sense that he wasn't in a good mood. Seeing hi

She got up immediately and jumped into the shower. As soon as she got ready, she ran downstairs to look for the driver. But the chief maid stopped her."Good morning, Mrs. Miya Uba, your breakfast isready:""Ah, thanks, but I will skip it. I'm late for work." Miya said hurriedly."It's Mr. Xenon Anderson's order that you have yoụr breakfast before you go to work."Miya stopped and turned around to stare at the maid, surprised. His order? He cares about me?!Now that it was Xenon's order, Miya could only obey. She. wolfed down two slices of toast and a glass of milk, then hurried to Work.It was almost eleven when she arrived at the door of the office.Just as she intended to sneak quietly, she spotted Levi coming towards her.Awkwardly, she smiled and said, "Good morning, Levi.""Mrs. Miya Anderson, you are an hour and a half late," Levi said."Did Xenon ask you...""Mr. Xenon Anderson said..." Just then, Jacob suddenly showed up and waved at Miya. "Hey!Look at you. How flexible you

"Then, go and work. And leave me alone." Xenon said sternly."Alright." Jacob pouted his lips. and left Xenon's office reluctantly.Jacob was bright and clever. He did his work well and efficiently, and usually with fun. He was rarely a serious person.It might seem to people that he never cared about his work but spent too much time having fun.The fact was that the departments that he was in the charge was all running well, and there had never been any problems since Jacob took over.That was the reason why he was assigned such an important position at an early age, and no one would ever judge or complain.Whatever he wanted to do, he did it well and fast.After leaving Xenon's office and feeling bored, Jacob wandered about and got to the floor where Jodie's office was.He happened to spot Jodie going into the lift carrying some documents. Jacob hurried and followed her in. He stood next to her and looked her up and down before he commented, "Hey, Jodie, aren't you a bit too boyish?

Xenon's face lit up at the sight of his lunch. He was pleased, and Miya was rather surprised to see a content smile on him. She couldn't help finding him charming. Feeling bashful, she put the plate down on the table and looked away.Xenon sat down and enjoyed his lunch. "You are quite a master at cooking and baking. You've got good taste in art." Xenon Commented suddenly."Thank you. I must have got it from my mum. She's an artist herself and very talented in lots of things.""Tell me about her.""Well, she's a gardener and created the most beautiful garden at home, I would say. She's a great cook as well, and she paints and. plays the piano really well." Miya said proudly, then she paused and added sadly, "or she used to. Since dad passed away and mum had a heart attack, everything changed."Xenon looked at Miya for a while but made no comment. When he had finished eating, he asked, "Do. you still want to be a designer?""Of course!" Miya exclaimed, and her face lit up with excite

"But even if I agreed to be your spy, he will surely suspect me if I just go and tell him now that I willwork for him.""Wait till he asks you again. Also, if he asks why you can just tell him that I threaten you with your mother's life and you hate me for that."Miya opened her eyes wide. How does he know my real thoughts? She wondered rather anxiously. I thought I had been hiding my real thoughts and emotions well.'Xenon, honey, please. I really can't be a spy. Please.." Miya put her arms around Xenon's neck and pleaded rather flirtatiously. She thought she should try a different strategy.Xenon frowned. "Don't give me that. You are just a pet."Miya pouted her lips and nodded. "I see. Ok, I will try my best."Xenon gave her a push and gestured that she should leave now.He leaned back in his seat and. watched Miya leave. With Miya's talent in cooking and design or art, as well as the fact that she looked like Sol, Xenon did want to keep Miya. However, he had to make sure that she

Two days later, Levi knocked at Chris' office door, carrying a bag of doc.u.ments and photos. "Come in," Xenon said, his eyes fixed on his laptop, trying to focus on work and not to think about Miya."Good Morning, Mr. Uba. Here are some doc.u.ments and photos of Mrs. Miya Uba." Levi handed Xenon the bag. "Have you spoken to her mother?" Xenon asked. He somehow felt that he was going to discover something that would change everything.Yes. I have. There was something in particular that I think you should probably know. It happened when Mrs. Miya Uba was about eight years old." Xenon looked up at Levi, surprised, expecting. "According to Mrs. Sue Loran, Mrs. Uba had a fever when she was around eight years old and lost part of her memories." Levi went on. "Did she say how and why?" Xenon asked eagerly. "She said Mrs. Uba had fallen into icy water that winter and caught a bad cold. She also mentioned that she probably had the accident of saving a stranger, but she had never seen th

The next few days, Xenon and Miya hardly saw or spoke to each other. Xenon had arranged a few more bodyguards to keep Miya safe. He felt that he needed some time for himself. The moon was up in the clear sky. Standing at the balcony, looking at the moonlit garden, with a cigarette in his hand, Xenon recalled the last few months spent with Miya, from the first time he saw her drugged and vulnerable outside the lift at Turn On Bar to the time when she risked her life to save him and the other day when she tried to take Chris' punch for him. There was a voice telling him that he had grown attached to and even fallen in love with her. He had to admit to himself that he missed her though he was the one that decided to have a break. As he pictured her face in his head, he suddenly thought of the little girl that saved him on the icy winter day again. Why do I always relate her to the little girl? Sol is the girl that saved me, not Miya. He thought to himself, then an idea occurred to him

Xenon dragged Miya into his office angrily and slammed the door shut. All the secretaries stared in disbelief. Though everyone was curious, no one dared to utter a word. He threw Miya onto the sofa and looked at her furiously, "No lies. Why were you at the restaurant with Chris Butler?!"Miya held his stare with her lips pouted. She remained silent.Xenon suddenly sat down next to her and pinned her down on the sofa, with his face right above hers, glaring at her threateningly. "Tell me." Miya felt that she had done nothing wrong and Xenon was being unfair. She heaved a sigh and said plainly, "He said he knows where my mum is, and he threatened me, so I had to go see him. You and Sol Keaton arrived just two minutes after I got there. I didn't know you were coming." Xenon looked into her eyes for a while as if to confirm if she was lying, then he got up, walked over to his desk, with his back facing her, and said, "I will take care of your mother. Now you can go back to work." Miya

Miya acknowledged what Chris said but made no reply. She was literally dragged away by Xenon. He walked faster and faster, and she had to rush to catch up. At one point, she almost twisted her ankle, but she bore the pain and said nothing. The bodyguard held the door open for them, and Xenon pushed Miya into the car rather violently and slammed the door shut.Miya shivered, frightened. She rubbed her ankle gently and accidentally saw through the window that Sol was running after them. She stumbled and almost fell over, but Xenon went over to her quickly and held her arm.Seeing that she was struggling with her twisted ankle, Xenon lifted Sol up and carried her to the car. It hurt Miya to see how much Xenon cared about Sol. It's obvious who he really loves. He won't divorce me only because he's being possessive. He doesn't want other men to have me.Xenon's phone rang. The bodyguard helped answer the phone and held it by Xenon's ear. "Mr. Uba, our team has studied the record of the

Both Xenon and Chris' bodyguards stood aside and watched cautiously. There was only limited space in the room, and even if the bodyguards wanted to help, they couldn't squeeze in. There were a few times when Miya felt fists flying right next to her cheek, and her heart was racing fast, frightened. Miya had learned how good Xenon was, and she was very impressed, but little did she expect Chris, who seemed so calm and elegant, to be another Kong Fu master. Hugging Miya with one arm, Xenon wasn't as swift as Chris, and suddenly, Chris threw a fierce punch towards Xenon. Miya screamed and held up her palms, intending to block Chris's punch.Both Xenon and Chris were shocked, and at the very same time, Chris retreated his fist while Xenon covered Miya's hands with his. That brought an end to the fight. "Didn't you want to leave me? Why did you try to take the punch for me then?" Xenon chuckled and teased. "I, I didn't mean to...it just happened," Miya explained feebly."Didn't you?" Xe

They arrived at one of the best high-end restaurants in town. Chris was looking out of the window, enjoying the view while waiting. He heard the door open and Miya's footsteps. Without turning around, he said quietly, "I'm glad you made it here." "Mr. Butler, why did you pay for my mum's treatment? I don't want to be in debt to you or anyone.""You are not. I have my own intentions." He replied without giving her any further explanation. "What do you mean?" Puzzled, Miya asked him again. Chris looked at her, smiled, and said, "No worries. I just want to see you and buy you lunch." "I have no appetite." She refused his offer. "Ah. It's alright. I do. Two more people are coming, by the way." "Who?" Miya snapped. "Take a seat. You will find out soon." Chris stood up, pulled out a chair for Miya, and gestured to her to sit down. Miya felt more worried, but knowing that there was no way she could leave without Chris' consent, she obeyedDid you finish the books I gave you?" Chris

Xenon bent down immediately to check. "You ok? Did you hurt your ankle?" Sol nodded. "I'm afraid so." Then she had a glance at the secretaries' office and saw that Miya could see them clearly. "Oh. Silly me. I shouldn't have worn heels." She said regretfully.Xenon put one arm around Sol's back and the other under her knees and lifted her up, so Sol wrapped her arms around his neck. "Xenon, I think I can manage. I'm worried that your staff will think it inappropriate to see you carrying me like this.""Inappropriate?" Xenon knitted his brows and marched towards the lift. "Whoever thinks it inappropriate should get fired." He said it aloud. As soon as the secretaries saw them get into the lift, everyone exclaimed, and soon gossip followed. Everyone saw and heard clearly how much Xenon cared about Sol, including Miya, especially when Sol smiled at her victoriously over Xenon's shoulder.She didn't need to do that. Everyone knows she's the one that Xenon loves anyway. Miya thought. Al

Miya was startled. She had forgotten the fact that she and Sol looked like. "No, she's not my sister." She shook her head. "But my goodness, you two look just the same." Jodie looked at Miya, then at Sol, and back at Miya, in disbelief.Sol had a closer look at Jodie, noticing her attire and her pretty face. She asked cautiously, with a smile, "Who are you, may I ask?" "Jodie Field. I work here. And you?" "Sol Keaton." "Nice to meet you. Do you work here as well?" "No, not yet. Perhaps in the future. I'm here to see Xenon." "To see Xenon? Mr. Uba? You know him well?" Jodie looked at her suspiciously. "Yes. I want to keep him company." "Huh? What do you mean? He's got his wife to keep him company." Jodie said matter-of-factly. Nice one, Jodie. Miya thought gratefully. Sol looked displeased at first, then she smiled and replied, "The thing is, his wife isn't the one he loves. I am. Those who are just a replacement will have to leave sooner or later now that I'm back." Jodie po

Irritated, he turned around and glared at Miya, "What do you want, huh? You were just saying you are jealous of Sol, and now you want to leave me." Miya smiled a helpless smile. "What do I want? Mr. Xenon Uba, I've told you that I love you, but we can't be together, can we? What do you expect me to do? To be your secret lover to humiliate me? And shouldn't you be loyal to Miss Keaton?"He didn't like seeing her smile. It upset and angered him at the same time. Without another word, he turned around and left. "Will you let me leave? Make up your mind, please..." Miya muttered.Xenon hurried back to his room. He didn't have an answer. Feeling helpless and hopeless, Miya collapsed onto the bed and stared at the ceiling all night long. She didn't get up till the maid knocked at her door in the morning to ask her to have breakfast. Seeing the tired and drawn face of herself in the mirror, she pinched her cheeks and said to herself, "Come on, Miya! This is not you! Cheer up. Life goes on
