R18 content ahead! His hands playfully caressed her nape as he awaited her response. Phyllis' heart skipped a beat. Perhaps it was nervousness or excitement, she cannot differentiate the emotions she was feeling at all. Between lovers, it was normal to miss one another. However, Phyllis felt her yearning grow the moment she saw him. With every step closer, she felt more and more drawn to him. She wanted to dive into his arms immediately. It was a peculiar feeling that she only felt with him. Maybe it was because they were still in the honeymoon phase, but she wanted to embrace this fe
Zacharias and Phyllis arrived at the Eno family mansion after a brief ride from the office. Zacharias was very familiar with the way to his in-law's house because he is always here whenever he was taking care of his nephew. After parking the car, the couple alighted the car and entered the mansion following Taylor's lead. In a jolly mood, Taylor whispered to them, “They said it was steak night so of course, we have to join them~” “Hey, Taylor! You're here early, huh?” said a strict-looking old man, who was walking down the staircase. He took a quick glance at the people behind Taylor and saw Zacharias and Phyllis. “Oh, the Lohrs! Hello, dear Phyllis!” he excitedly greeted. Phyllis politely approached him to help him out. “Yes, hello, Grandpa Greg. Aias and I are going to join you guys for dinner, is that alright?” He gently patted Phyllis' hands. “Aiya~ of course, it's alright! You're always welcome here at my house, my dear.” “Your father rarely visits me nowadays, how
“Hey—” Zacharias was about to interject but he stopped midway because he felt another pinch on his thigh. His head slowly turned to his loving wife and saw her beautiful smile. It was very refreshing and harmless that he did not realize that he was staring at her. “Do you want to help her out?” asked Phyllis with an innocent and soft tone of voice. “No…” he unconsciously blurts out. Satisfied, Phyllis gently caressed his thigh. “Then, good.” Rui and Chase curiously watched from the sidelines. Rui leaned in and whispered to her dear husband. “She tamed that guy real quick, it's amazing.” “That's because your cousin is a simple man,” he whispered back. Rui giggled in agreement. “True.” Chase placed the teacup back on the table. “Taylor said that he will release an official statement later.” “So, Zach, please don't pity that girl. She took advantage of the situation and we all know that” he continued. “It's also normal to limit the resources of an opportunist artist
Phyllis silently listened to him. Hearing him show his displeasure with his mother is a first for her. Though she knows that he doesn't have a good relationship with his mother, she did not realize it was this bad because he never speaks about her. She can see that he is upset, just because his mother is trying to involve herself in his life. As far as she knows, she doesn't have any reason to visit GEM Entertainment. She is a virtuous wife of a senator, who stayed away from the entertainment industry. She never had any connection with showbiz aside from Zacharias, who's a famous singer. “I don't understand her now, babe… All my life she told me not to speak of her because she doesn't want to be involved in the dirty entertainment industry…” “And yet, she's here. Getting involved with our company. What am I supposed to think?!” “Yes, it was not a secret that I'm her son. But she doesn't want to be involved with me…” he opened up. It was difficult for him to open up about his di
[All About Victoria Emory's Charity Event For St. Mary's Orphanage] [Victoria Emory Shares Joyous Moments With Children In St. Mary's Orphanage] In the lifestyle magazine, Centriona Metro Life, articles about Victoria Emory's charity work were published. Details about her kindness and compassion were noted in the magazine's article. As the wife of Arthur Emory, she helped maintain his image to the citizens. They were a loving couple in politics who were never involved in any controversy. They kept a low profile, but still, opened up enough for the people to know what they were up to. “Victoria Emory involved herself with various charity works with children as they have a special place in her heart. As a mother and a wife who supports the Emory household, it was important for her to stand by the causes that are special for her and for her husband.” Leila read a passage aloud from the magazine article for Victoria Emory. Who is famous for being a charitable woman. She casually si
Phyllis sighed. Exhaustion is evident in her eyes as she leans back on the couch. “I don't know…” “I mean, you've always been so involved with Luna, so I thought you'd do something about it. My dear, let's not play dumb. This article insinuates something more, and you know that.” Phyllis completely understands Leila's point. It's just that, now that his mother is involved, she cannot do things like before. She has to take into consideration that she is her husband's mother. So, even if Zacharias has bad blood with his mother, she cannot make a move on her own. At the very least, she has to consult him first. 'As much as I want to help, it's not like Aias will ask for my help…' 'Even if he knows I'm capable of solving his problem, I don't think he will ask.' “I'm sure Zacharias has a plan for that.” She briefly answered her friend to end their questions about his mother and the mayor's daughter. She'll wait and see what will happen next. For now. … Weeks passed and Phylli
Zacharias went home late after a busy day in the office and went straight to their bedroom. His tired body immediately climbed the bed and embraced Phyllis’ body. “Tired from work?” Phyllis softly asked. “Hmmm…” he hummed in response as he snuggled in tightly. Phyllis turned around to hug him back. “Did something happen at work?”“No… Nothing special happened. It was just a normal tiring day…”“I see…”Phyllis remained silent for a minute or two, pondering about Tiffany’s visit to her husband’s office. Of course, she was perfectly assured. In her mind, she was alright, she was fine. But something about that girl makes her feel kind of… unsettled… “Did you eat already?” He kissed her forehead. “Yep, I did, babe…”“Then, let’s sleep?”“Hmm…”…The next day, Phyllis went to visit GEM Entertainment’s office with her friend Ellianna. She has no business agenda or anything, she just wanted to see the situation. “Why did you ask me to come when you can go yourself?” Ellianna whispered
Zacharias greeted his wife, Phyllis with a warm embrace and a soft peck on the cheek. “I heard from Taylor that you're visiting that's why I'm here.” In an instant, she felt all the frustrations fly away with his touch. But still, her expression remained the same. “Yeah, I'm just visiting with my friend, Ellianna.” Zacharias then turned to Ellianna and smiled. He offered his hand politely. “Hi, nice to finally meet you.” Ellianna shook his hand amiably and said, “It's a pleasure of mine to meet the famous Zacharias Lohr from Luna.” Zacharias chuckled and placed his arms around Phyllis' shoulders. “I hope I'm famous in a good way.” Ellianna smiled downward and shrugged her shoulders. “Well…” Zacharias took a quick glance at Phyllis and apologetically smiled. “I know, I know… A lot has been going on in the media right now…” “Well, yeah… I think you have another problem you need to settle.” He paused, reminding him of Tiffany's visit. Of course, he got the gist of what was happe
