“Damn! Why didn't we ever think of that project?” Arion muttered.Felix and Reynard nodded in agreement.“Because honestly, what you're facing seemed like a trivial love matter, like a woman obsessed with a man, willing to do anything,” Felix explained.Reynard stood up and said, “Wait, I'll get the project files from Emily.”Arion turned and stopped Reynard, “Later, Rey. Show me the photos and videos you got.”“Alright!” Reynard sat back down, focusing on the monitor in front of him.Arion breathed a sigh of relief, but tried to act casual. There was no way he would let anyone disturb Emily's rest right now.Felix noticed Arion's behavior and smiled slightly.An hour passed, and the three men had reviewed all they could investigate. The CCTV footage revealed only a few pieces of evidence, but the video was too blurry.They needed something bigger to figure out what they were dealing with, especially Arion.“Rey, schedule something for Tasha,” Arion said, stretching his arms.“A sched
“Hi, Emily,” Raul greeted as he approached Arion and Emily.“Good evening, Mr. Raul,” Emily replied formally.Raul frowned, “Why so formal, Emily? We're friends, aren't we?”“Oh... It's just—”“What brings you to the office at this hour?” Arion interrupted, standing in front of Emily to shield her with his body.“I was just passing by and asked the security if you were still here. Lucky for me, you were. I wanted to invite you to the club,” Raul said with a smile. “How about Emily joining us too?”Arion remained calm. Besides Reynard and Felix, Raul was quite close to him.“I'm afraid not, bro. I still have work to finish after this,” Arion replied, turning to Emily. “Right, Emily?” he asked, winking at her out of Raul's sight.“That's right, Mr. Raul. I'm sorry,” Emily quickly picked up on Arion's signal.Raul sighed, “Ah, is that so? Well, another time then. But don’t refuse next time.”“Of course.”“Oh, by the way, congratulations, bro!”Arion raised an eyebrow, “Congratulations?”
The next morning, Arion and Emily headed to Orion Corporation together. “Darling, Emily?” Arion called Emily softly, his eyes focused on the road ahead.“Yes?”“Don’t reply to any messages from anyone,”“Hm? How am I supposed to work if I don’t reply to incoming messages?” Emily replied calmly, looking confused at Arion.Arion sighed, realizing she was right. She handled all administrative matters, so how could she not reply to messages? It was his mistake not to clarify his request in detail.“Anything except on your personal number, darling,” Arion added.“Oh...”“Today, Reynard, Felix, and I will visit the Triple R construction project, but I’ll try to be back before lunch.”“Really? Was there a schedule for that?” Emily immediately opened her iPad to check Arion’s schedule.“It came up suddenly,”“Then what about the 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. meetings?” Emily asked.Arion raised one hand and grabbed Emily’s, which was busy scrolling through the iPad.Kiss!“After the meetings, there’s fre
Upon hearing Emily's name mentioned, Arion turned and saw her standing behind him, having just emerged from the restroom. "Did she see it?" he wondered anxiously."I hope not," he thought, his nerves on edge.Emily walked past Arion with a serene expression, but she avoided looking in his direction."Emily, to my office!" Arion commanded."Alright," Emily replied calmly."Rey! Thanks!" Arion called out, giving a thumbs-up."No problem, Boss!"Arion then entered his office with Emily. Once the door closed, he immediately hugged her from behind. "Darling...""Hmm?""Please don't be mad..." Arion murmured against the back of Emily's neck.Emily let out a quiet sigh, "We'll talk about it later. We should go upstairs for the meeting."Smooch!Arion stole a kiss on the corner of Emily's lips. However, Emily's eyes flashed with sharpness.She walked over to the desk, grabbed a tissue, and then returned to Arion. "At least clean off your girlfriend's lipstick!" she snapped, wiping the lipstic
Finally, the three handsome men got into their vehicle. Reynard took the driver's seat, Felix sat in the front passenger seat, and Arion settled in the back."How did it go for you guys?" Felix asked, pulling an iPad from his small bag.Reynard glanced at Arion. "I couldn't read their facial expressions.""Me neither, everything seemed too normal," Arion agreed, responding to Reynard's observation."What about you? Are the cameras in place?" Arion asked Felix.Felix smiled, his fingers moving swiftly over the iPad screen. "Look at this," he exclaimed, handing the iPad to Arion."That's crazy, bro!" Arion said, satisfied.Reynard, focused on driving, couldn't see what was on the iPad until Felix mentioned that he had placed thirty cameras at various points around the Triple R project site."Hahahah!!! It's showtime!" Reynard laughed with satisfaction."And what about you, Yon?" Reynard asked Arion without taking his eyes off the road."What about me?""How are you going to get informat
After the two-hour meeting, Arion quickly headed back to his office."I'll be returning to the project site tonight," Felix said before they parted ways, as Reynard and Felix would head straight to their control room.Arion nodded. "Stay alert," he advised Felix.At the same time, the elevator doors opened. Arion exited while Reynard and Felix continued upward.The handsome man walked into his office and locked the door behind him. His brow furrowed as he noticed Emily wasn't there, nor were any of the workers."Em?""Emily?"Arion decided to call her.Brrzzz BrrzzzEmily's phone buzzed on Arion's desk. "Where is she?"Arion walked to his new room.ClickA thin smile formed on his handsome face as he found his girlfriend fast asleep on the bed.He stepped carefully towards the bed, then bent down to gaze at her beautiful face.Arion gently caressed Emily's face, his thumb brushing her tempting lips.Smooch!"Sweet..." he murmured, kissing her softly before moving to kiss her cheek and
Drzzzttt… Drzzzttt…Emily's phone kept buzzing, waking Arion from his sleep. "Damn! What time is it?" he muttered hoarsely, glancing towards the window. The sky had already turned dark, and the city lights from the tall buildings were clearly visible.His attention then shifted to Emily's phone. He looked at Emily, who was still sound asleep in his arms. He kissed the top of her head lovingly and carefully got up. Walking towards the dresser, he checked to see who was calling his woman. His brow furrowed when he saw Raul's name on Emily's phone screen."Why is he calling Emily at this hour?" he muttered softly."Yon?" Emily's voice came as she woke up due to the ringtone of her phone."Yes, darling?" Arion turned and approached Emily, holding her phone.Emily's eyes fixed on her phone as Arion handed it to her. She took it and looked at the caller. The same confusion struck her as she wondered why that man was calling her.Suddenly, her eyes widened. She bit her lower lip, remembering
After a twenty-minute drive, they finally arrived at Ethan and Della's residence. However, Emily's expression looked worried."What's wrong, hmm?" Arion asked as he parked the car right in front of the main entrance.Emily turned to Arion. "Yon...""Yes?""I'm worried about my parents' reaction," Emily admitted.Arion smiled and gently caressed Emily's face. "I'll handle it."The beautiful woman nodded slowly.Arion unbuckled his seatbelt and then unbuckled Emily's. "Wait."He quickly got out and circled the car to open the door for Emily."Come on, darling."Arion extended his hand, holding Emily's hand firmly. At that moment, Rhea, holding a full-face helmet, emerged from the mansion."Brother Arion!" Rhea exclaimed happily upon seeing Arion."Hey, Rhe!" Arion responded with a fist bump, never letting go of Emily's hand.Rhea raised her eyebrows suggestively. "Finally going public, huh?" she teased Arion.Arion raised his eyebrows and smiled back."Wait! What is this?" Emily frowned
