View MoreAutumn stopped crying and looked at Xander with her doe eyes."Ok." she said.Everyone was staring at Xander, surprised that he offered Autumn a piggyback. Xander, on the other hand, looked at the girl as he realized what he had done. Now, he would have to give her a piggyback. He didn't expect her to stop crying right away and accept his offer. He looked at the audience, who were clearly enjoying the show. He noticed a faint smirk on William's face and raised his brow with suspicion. He began to wonder, had he fallen into a trap?William actually played Xander. He was informed about his arrival yesterday. He knew the kids would come as well, as it was the weekend. He deliberatly didn't inform Ariadne of Xander's arrival and asked Xander to come in the morning. He pretended to give Autumn a piggyback as well. After all, he knew he wouldn't be able to piggyback anyone due to his current health. As he expected, Xander fell right into his trap. He wanted him to get closer to his children
"None of this would have happened if they had allowed me to stay with you." Crystal said bitterly, expressing her anger."They did as they were told. It's not their fault." Xander replied, sipping his juice.He was eating breakfast with Crystal in his room at noon. Because of the drug, he slept for a long time and woke up a while ago."But Xander, you needed me. Only I could have helped you in that situation. We're getting engaged and we have slept before, so what happens if we do it again?" Crystal was furious after hearing what happened last night. She couldn't stand Ariadne near Xander, and last night they almost slept together."I dislike doing anything while unconscious.""You don't do anything in your conscious state either." Crystal expressed her disappointment. "You didn't even kiss me once in these five years. You also refuse to let me near you.""Crystal, you know the reason. I don't want to talk about it now.""Yes, I understand that you care about me, and don't want to dis
When Xander came out of his room and nearly fell to the floor, Toby saw him. He was near the elevator, talking to his wife. As soon as he saw Xander, he approached him. However, when Xander banged on Ariadne's door he stopped in his tracks. He silently observed him without saying anything. Inside the room, Ariadne was lying on her bed, trying to sleep. After arriving at his room, Mark went to the bathroom and threw up three or four times. Only then did he feel better. Ariadne stayed in his room while he changed and freshened up. After taking a pill, he fell asleep, and Ariadne returned to her room. She, too, freshened up and changed into comfortable clothes. She didn't call home as she was exhausted and it was already late. She went straight to bed. However, she hadn't yet fallen asleep when her doorbell rang, followed by a loud banging on the door. She sat up abruptly, perplexed. She assumed it was Mark as she had instructed him to come to her room if he needed anything. She hurri
"They're looking good." Ariadne remarked as she and Mark sat at the bar, sipping drinks. Their eyes were fixed on Jennifer and Dean, who were dancing on the dance floor with others. "We will look better." Mark said as he placed his glass of drink on the bar counter after downing the liquor. Ariadne frowned as she looked at him. Mark rose from his seat and took her glass and placed it beside his own. "We're going to dance, too." he said as he grabbed her hand. "What? No." Ariadne was surprised. "Oh, yes." he forced her to stand up from her seat and dragged her to the dance floor. Ariadne stopped struggling as everyone was there. Mark took the position, and they began dancing to the music. Jennifer gave them a smile. Ariadne couldn't help but giggle. A romantic song played and Mark pulled her closer, placing his hand on her waist and looked at her eyes. "Don't try to be romantic with me." Ariadne gave him a funny look. "I'm just feeling the song." he smirked, causing h
"I made it clear that you would keep me updated on whatever happened there." Tiara shouted from the other end of the phone. "Come down, girl. I am fine. Nothing happened." Ariadne assured her. She was currently in her bed, after returning to her room a while ago. After Ariadne slammed Mrs. Garner in front of everyone, the insults stopped, and everyone resumed normal conversation. Crystal and Catherine acted normally while Mrs. Garner's head hung down in shame. However, Xander appeared disturbed after the argument, and left early with his men. Ariadne and Mark went back to their rooms after speaking with a few people after dinner, while Crystal stayed with the ladies. The first thing Ariadne did when she returned to her room was call Tiara to check on the kids. She didn't tell anyone what happened at the festival back home. She didn't want them to worry about her. However, Tiara managed to get every news about her. "By the way, how did you know about this?" Ariadne asked. "I
Crystal smiled sweetly as she asked. They were not alone. There were two other women with them. Catherine Garner and her sister-in-law, Mrs. Tina Garner. Ariadne recognized them right away. Looking at the three women, she knew they were going to humiliate her. She sighed before composing herself. Crystal had already ruined the previous dinner. She wouldn't let anyone ruin her evening today. She mentally prepared herself. Lady Linda didn't sit with her today, as she joined another table with her relatives. "Oh, that will be our pleasure, Miss Miller. Please take your seats. Good evening, Mr. Blake." the woman from earlier said. They moved to the empty seats on the opposite side of Ariadne. The three women and three men sat in a line, with Xander and Crystal in the center, next to each other. "Are you okay?" Mark asked, concerned. Ariadne nodded with a smile. He gave her a knowing smile to assure her that he was with her. Xander glared at them after sitting in the chair, then averte
Xander noticed Ariadne and Mark approaching the golf course. They were talking, unaware of his hard glare on them. Ariadne burst out laughing as Mark said something to her. They looked happy, enjoying each other's company. Xander clenched his jaw while watching the scene and averted his gaze. "Do they come to play golf as well?" Jose murmured under his breath. However, Xander heard him. "You are very curious about other people's affairs." he remarked sharply. "Um.. nothing like that. Sorry, Boss." Jose lowered his gaze and kept quiet. He couldn't figure out why his boss was suddenly in a bad mood. "Look, who's there." Mark pointed towards where Xander sat as they got closer. Ariadne's smile vanished as she noticed him. "Shall we greet him?" Mark asked, giving her a wink. Ariadne rolled her eyes. Mark walked towards Xander, and she reluctantly followed him. "Good morning, Mr. Blake." Mark greeted him, appraoching his table. Xander looked up from his food and nod
As Jose mentioned, someone delivered Ariadne's dinner to her room shortly after. After returning to her room, she freshened up and changed into comfortable clothes. She was about to eat her dinner when the doorbell rang. She became anxious about who it could be. After what happened at the dinner party, she became purplexed. Nonetheless, she went to open it. Her mood became worse as soon as she saw the person. Without waiting for anything, Crystal entered the room and closed the door. "How dare you cause a scene at the dinner party? You caused Xander a great loss as he made Tom his enemy. All thanks to you." Crystal yelled, pointing a finger at Ariadne. She was enraged at Xander's protective behavior toward Ariadne at the dinner party. She kept her cool in front of everyone and refrained from lashing out at her. Now that she had the chance, she didn't waste a second. "Hold on.. hold on. It wasn't me, but you, who caused Xander's loss." Ariadne pointed. "Now you are blaming me
Everyone looked at Xander, who stood there glaring at Tom as he collapsed on the floor. No one noticed when he rose from his seat and walked around the table to Ariadne's side. Stunned, Ariadne abruptly jumped out of her chair, but she stumbled and fell backwards. Jose arrived instantly and stopped her from falling. She stood up with his help and steadied herself. By then, Xander had grabbed Tom's collar and yanked him to his feet. "She said she's not interested. What part of it did you not understand?" Xander shouted and punched him hard in the face. He was furious beyond control. Ariadne covered her mouth with her hand as she scurried to the corner, her gaze fixed on Xander, her body trembling. Jose stood close to her, on guard. Everyone stood up from their seats, and silence fell as all eyes were on Xander and Tom. "Xander?" Crystal rushed to him. "What are you doing? leave him." she grabbed his hand, which was still holding Tom's collar, and attempted to release it, but
In a garden, a well-dressed and handsome boy was standing in a corner, hiding one of his hands behind his back. There was a birthday celebration in the middle. His eyes were fixed on a cute girl dressed in a blue princess dress, surrounded by a few kids of her age. They were chatting and laughing. The boy didn't approach them as he didn't know anyone except for that little girl. He was silently watching her with a smiling face and affection reflecting in his eyes. Suddenly, another little girl, dressed in a pink princess dress, appeared from nowhere and approached the boy. "Hi, what are you doing here alone?" the girl asked. She had been watching the boy for some time before she approached him. The boy felt uncomfortable being seen in such an awkward moment. The girl peeked behind his back and noticed the gift he was holding. "OMG. You brought a gift for me!" The girl almost jumped in excitement. "Thank you." she tried to take the gift from the boy's hand, but he ...
