“Sean, where are you?” Craig's head was down, and his reddened eyes were moist and fixed on his toes. His nose was red, his lips quivered, and his shaky voice was laced with grievance, making him appear more pitiful.Craig sniffed and hiccupped loudly, revealing that the boy had been crying for a while. Faint tears hung on his face, and dry tear traces coated his face.Upon hearing the boy’s pitiful cry, Sean’s hand gripped his hurting chest. It felt as if Sean had just been stabbed deep in his heart, making his heart exceptionally ache. At that moment, Sean wished for nothing but to go over to hug the boy and wrap the boy in a warm embrace while stroking the boy in his arms.Unfortunately for Sean, despite all the thoughts pervading his mind, he could only pronounce the boy's name helplessly. “Craig.” Craig sniffed back the tears that threatened to spill, and his body trembled harder. Nevertheless, he gripped his phone tighter. Even though there was a slim 0.01% chance rate, Craig
To prove that he wasn’t thinking too much, Hayden even video-called the guys and Mia while having his upper body bare. Zenos had always been protective of the boy's body, and he never wanted to see the boy show skin to anyone else. If it were the Zenos Hayden was acclimated to, the person would have thrown Hayden on the bed and tossed him about fiercely for daring to do such a brazen thing. However, the person only took a glance at Hayden before continuing his work, not choosing to comment on Hayden’s brazen action, unlike before! No matter how Hayden tried to think it through, he failed to find a satisfactory reason. Hayden squinted, and he tugged his silver hair in confusion. It can’t be that Zenos that person can’t do it anymore? Upon arrival at that conclusion, Hayden’s eyes widened. It was as if he finally got a lead on the thought that had always bugged him! Thinking about the big monster not being able to do it anymore is really pitiful! It’ll really be sad indeed, but...H
Zenos extended his hand and ruffled the boy’s hair gently. “Baby, I didn't know it bothered you this much. Do you think I don't want you anymore? I do. I really do. Look.” Without hesitation, Zenos grabbed the boy’s hand and used it to touch his rising bulge. Feeling the existence of the large, familiar monster, a certain memory began to invade Hayden’s head. Hayden’s face and ears flushed deeply, and a whole sense of anger overwhelmed him. Hayden quickly pulled back his hand, and he glared at Zenos with teary, limpid eyes due to embarrassment. "You pervert,” he retorted, but his voice ended up emitting a thin, whiny voice to Hayden’s dismay.Zenos’ lips curled upward in a mischievous smirk, and he bit the boy’s ear slightly. “En. Want to see? A pervert tailor-made for young master baby Hayden." Zenos’ lips curled up, and a mischievous glint flickered past his eyes.Without waiting for the boy’s response, he bends slightly and picks up the boy in bridal style.By this time, Hayden’s
Several people repeatedly made their way in and out of the airport. An eye-catching female figure dressed in a red suit and its red skirt that fell on her thigh pulled luggage behind her and casually strode out of the airport, with a Bluetooth earpod in one of her ears and a phone in her right hand. Even with her face mask on, the girl repeatedly caught the lingering stares of the crowd, which she ignored.A man in his late twenties donning a suit suddenly hurried forward and only came to a stop in front of the girl. He bowed respectfully to the girl before stretching out his hand to collect the girl’s luggage, which she effortlessly passed to him. “Welcome miss…”“Hm.” Jade took off her mask and elegantly stretched her body before nodding casually. “Has the mansion been prepared yet? I’ll be in Grail for a while.” Jade articulated in a calm tone and elegantly tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear, her action depicting elegance yet seductiveness.The man in a suit was absent-m
Andy stood in his office and stared down at the busy city with glazed eyes. His eyes subconsciously lowered to his phone. He unlocked his phone and went through his phone app, mail app, and chatting app as if searching for something important.Even after scrolling through all the apps on his phone, he failed to discover what he was looking for, making his whole person appear downcast.Andy tossed the phone into his trousers pocket, and the glint in his eyes became complicated. His gaze fell on the busy city, and he felt very uncomfortable. It was dark, but still, he could only stay in the office…“CEO Andy.” The sudden call from his assistant broke his thoughts.Even without turning to look at his assistant, Andy already knew what the person was in his office for. “Place them on the table and leave.” He calmly ordered“Ok,” the person replied and strode towards Andy’s table. Carefully and silently, he placed the documents on the table. He straightened his back and stared at Andy’s bac
Craig leisurely strode out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. He casually used the towel in his hand to dry his wet hair while striding toward his hair treatment section. Craig extended his hand to pick up his hair dryer, but before he could successfully pick it up, his phone suddenly rang, attracting Craig's attention.Craig’s brows arched, and he strode towards his bed immediately. He picked up his phone to see an unknown number calling him. His brows furrowed slightly, yet he accepted the call and placed the phone next to his ear. “Hey...”“Did you know Big Brother Sean specially curated a list of places just to find the perfect city for me to spend my vacation? If you don’t, I just wanted to tell you that.” Xena’s charming voice, filled with extreme cockiness, drifted into Craig’s ear. Xena’s voice was filled with so much smugness that it was clear that she wanted to show off while gloating at Craig.Craig’s expression changed, and his lips pursed in a thin li
As soon as Zenos’s car arrived at the mansion, Hayden jumped down from the car with a beam without waiting for Zenos to park. Zenos’ expression turned dark in an instant. This rascal still hasn’t stopped his naughty yet dangerous behavior. Zenos expertly parked his car and swiftly alighted from it. He strode towards Hayden, who stood at a spot, waiting patiently for Zenos. Upon seeing the gloomy expression on Zenos’ face, Hayden’s heart skipped a beat, and he had the impulse to chide himself fiercely. He smacked his lips together. How could he behave so recklessly in Zenos’ presence? His behind trembled while he thought that he must really have a tossing wish.Zenos had always been strict with Hayden’s safety, and Hayden knew that. Hayden didn’t believe that he'd momentarily lose himself and do such reckless things in Zenos’ presence. If Hayden had recalled himself, even if he had 900 lives, he would never dare jump down from a moving car.Hayden snapped out of his thoughts and im
"Zenos, did Michael, Jude, David, and Sean come with you?” As soon as everyone stood up from the dining table, Jade rushed to Zenos’ side and began to pester him with questions. It was as if Jade was trying to flaunt Zenos and Jade’s relationship at Hayden, and the boys. At the mention of Sean, Jade felt a sudden, piercing stare fall on her. The gaze was so fierce that it made her hair stand on end. Jade’s brows furrowed, and she turned around to find the owner of the gaze. Unfortunately, when she turned around, she failed to capture whoever it was.Craig’s lips pursed in gloom. He’s already sulking about Xena; does this person want to join the list?Unlike Hayden, Craig won’t give anyone a chance. Yes, he won’t give them the chance to cast their bewitching eyes on his man. Regardless of their gender, he’ll throw them out before they can touch his man. And then warn Sean fiercely! At the sight of the duo, Hayden felt as if his heart had been clenched deeply, making it exceptionally
An hour and a few minutes later, the doctor had already done a check-up for Hayden and disinfected, diagnosed, and dressed Zenos’ wound.The doctor’s back straightened, and he stared at Zenos and Hayden politely before reporting calmly, “Mr. Hayden’s mental health stress has decreased a lot. However, it seemed Mr. Hayden had a lot on his mind lately and tended to think a lot. It’s as if Mr. Hayden was afraid or anxious.” The doctor finalized.Upon hearing the doctor’s sentence, Hayden lowered his head and stared at his palm placed on his knees. Even though he didn’t make a comment, it was easy to notice that the doctor was right with his words.Zenos’ brows furrowed slightly. Except for Hayden’s exceptional clinginess, Hayden had always acted fine. Could it be that the boy had been pretending and was hiding things from him? What could it be?Zenos wrapped his hands around Hayden’s waist and nudged gently. He took hold of the boy’s hands and gently stroked them. “What’s it, baby?” he c
"Zenos, did you touch my schoolbag?" Hayden pursed his lips together and eyed Zenos suspiciously.Zenos raised his head to stare at the boy calmly. Upon making eyes with Zenos' deep eyes, Hayden became flustered, and he quickly dodged away.At that moment, Hayden realized that he was very daring. In fact, who would touch his bag if it wasn't Zenos? It's enough that he brought an illegal thing into the mansion when Zenos even took it away; he even dared to ask Zenos about it. Definitely courting trouble.In fact, the day before is when Hayden is supposed to get his snack from Zenos. However, because Hayden was caught eating a snack, Zenos banned the boy for five days.Despite Hayden's pleas and negotiation, he was only able to coax Zenos into four days. How heartless.Just thinking about how Zenos coldly pronounced that ruthless order, Hayden felt like bursting into tears.His beautiful heart. His exquisite heart. Of course, no snacks can ever taste like it. Yet Zenos cruelly takes it
“Micheal,” Xavier interjected immediately with a call.Upon seeing Hayden's expression turning pale, Zenos engulfed the boy in a hug and gently coaxed him while throwing dagger-like glares at the unfazed and unremorseful Michael.Michael leisurely leaned against Xavier and gave Hayden a cold glare, killing intent flickering past his eyes. "If you dare Zenos again, it is best you go into hiding and never let me find you, or I'll kill you with bare hands.” Micheal threatened, his voice laced with seriousness and danger.Although Xavier should be the one interjecting and cautioning Michael, upon seeing the person acting so domineering, Xavier’s eyes darkened and his desires increased, a thought in his mind: damn, Michael is hot!Upon hearing Michael’s words, Hayden's eyes surged with determination, and he retorted firmly, sincerity laced in his tone. "I won't hurt Zenos.” Hayden will never hurt Zenos in his lifetime or the next. Back then, when Hayden hurt Zenos, it was because he was ch
Suddenly, Jude’s phone rang, interjecting his typing. Jude stood up and strode toward the panoramic window; he tucked his left hand into his pocket and stared at the city. Jude picked up Zenos’ call."For those who embezzled, did you put in a schedule with our lawyer in court?" Zenos’ calm voice and the rapid finger typing on the keyboard drifted from the other end of the phone. "En,” Jude responded calmly, but in the next second, he arched his brows.At first, Zenos planned to take a look at the company’s staff and day-to-day affairs, but he suddenly decided to kick everyone out today. Originally, didn’t Zenos claim it was too early?Also, Mr. Dylan already knows his way around the company more than anyone. He can even be said to know his way around better than the owner. It was as if he was the owner! He might try to use that to cause trouble. Wait! He’s already in the police. Coupled with the pile of evidence that they have against him and his son, they will definitely take a wh
“No way! How could it be…” Upon hearing this, the higher-up expression changed, and they stared at each other in shock. Someone in the company dared to do such a heinous thing?The company’s value kept falling drastically with each second that ticked before Zenos stepped in.Although the Heart product was launched using the company, in fact, Zenos used it to boost the company, and the Heart product completely belongs to Zenos.For the first time in years, their debt was finally decreasing, and they were able to see a profit.Yet someone dared to do something heinous! Certainly, that person deserves a judgment that’s worse than death!Suddenly, one of the higher-ups squinted his eyes in suspicion and pointed at the nerdy guy. When everyone thought the Shert product tasted good, he was quick to find out that it tasted like heart product.If he hasn’t done something so suspicious, there’s no way he’ll find out so quickly.Upon hearing this, all of their expressions changed, and they turn
“Hayden.” Zenos calmly articulated, while leaning against the car, his arms folded, accentuating his toned muscles and the sun landing on his frame, making everything pale in sight.Once the boy’s green eyes shifted toward Zenos’s car, Zenos raised his right hand and waved at the boy twice before retracting his hand.At the sight of the impeccably handsome Zenos, the students’ attention was grabbed, and their eyes landed on Zenos.Several girls begin to blush shyly while sneaking glances at Zenos as if doing so will grab Zenos’ attention and make him notice them; others begin to whisper to themselves in amazement, completely lovestruck.Upon hearing Zenos’s voice, Hayden’s eyes widened in shock. Zenos is here?Without hesitating, Hayden deserted his group of friends and ran toward Zenos. He only paused when he arrived in Zenos’s presence. Hayden carefully chewed the cookies in his mouth before speaking in happiness, “Zenos, you are here to pick me up?” Immediately, he completed his w
Justin leaned against the patio chair and took out his phone; his eyes grew soft, and he tapped open his phone gallery.Immediately, Justin opened his favorite photos, which included a sneak shot of Hayden. He fondly caressed the blurry faces of Hayden, and he exhaled ruefully. “What to do? I can't get over you.” He mumbled to himself. Especially Hayden’s tearful expression that night. The more he recalled, the more his heart ached on Hayden’s behalf. He really wished he had enough power to save Hayden from that boyfriend of his. Sigh! Justin shook his head to rid himself of Hayden's sad expression when Zenos yelled at him that night…“Oh no!” The familiar, annoying voice of Nougat cried out behind Justin, and Justin stiffened. Justin’s expression changed, and his voice rose a tad higher due to annoyance. "What are you doing here?" Justin coldly chided and quickly placed his phone into his pocket.Nougat’s eyes narrowed with a wicked and mischievous glint. His lips curved up in a
In a beautiful and serene luxurious private room, a peerlessly handsome man, donning a blasé expression on his face and a cinnamon roll in between his thin lips, majestically sat on a luxurious chair, faintly looking at the idiot in front of him.While the other, the supposed idiot, looked on the verge of tears. He extended his hand as if trying to clutch the handsome man's legs, yet his hand never touched the man's legs.“Big brother Zenos, don't be like this.” Jack pleaded pitifully, almost on the brink of tears.Even though Jack is older than Zenos, Jack doesn't mind begging the devilish Zenos in front of him to get what he wants.To even think that Jack doesn't know how he offended Zenos in the first place!Zenos calmly removed the cinnamon roll from his lips. He immediately directed a cold glare that froze Jack's soul right at that moment. He pronounced coldly, “What?” But in the next moment, Jack snapped out of his reverie and began to bawl so loudly that Zenos wanted nothing b
"Hayden, wake up or you'll be late for school." Zenos' eyes instantly fell on the sleeping Hayden. He extended his hands, patted Hayden's back, and tried to remove the blanket from the sleeping Hayden's right grip. Unfortunately, Hayden won't let go. Hayden puckered his lips and snuggled deeper into the blanket without opening his eyes. He shook his head and articulated, "I don't want to go to school." Hayden said in a sleepy voice while clutching his sense of comfort tighter before Zenos collected it from him completely. Early in the morning, Hayden hid under the blanket and continued sleeping even though he needed to attend school. This is the reason why Zenos had been trying to wake and pull a certain someone away from the bed. Unfortunately, the little rascal isn't ready to budge from position.Upon hearing the boy's words, Zenos arched his brows. He let go of the blanket and sat on the bed; his eyes fell on Hayden, and he cuddled Hayden to his chest. Gently, he stroked the boy
