Guy tried to hide his annoyance and continued to select a dress for Yuna. Guy concentrated on picking a suitable gown for Yuna. His eyes fell on a glamorous and elegant red gown.This evening gown was personally designed and sewn by the world renowned designer, Helen Swift. It was in noble red. The top came with a light shoulder yarn, which followed a small, fluffy skirt flowing down from the waist. The silky gown was exquisite and had all the curves in the right places.Beautiful. It was really beautiful.Guy always had a high aesthetic standard and a strong fashion sense.“I want this,” he instructed succinctly.Alan walked over to look at his choice and objected discreetly, “,this gown is our imperial jewel.”Does he really want this unknown lady to wear it? That would be wasteful.Besides, the designer said before that not every Asian woman could flaunt the dress.He concluded that Yuna would be too frail to look good in it.Even if the gown was suitable for her, other famous ladie
What came as a greater surprise to Agent Qin, however, was that Yuki’s physical appearance looked very familiar to him. Had he seen someone with the same physical looks prior to this.Qin came to a sudden realization at that, and he turned to look at Yuna, only to see that her head was down while she bit on her lower lip. She was clearly suffering in silence.She looked dejected and helpless. With her handsome brows knitted together and her arms defensively hugging each other, she hid herself behind Guy.If one were to look at her and Yuki separately, perhaps it would be slightly difficult to make the connection.However, they were now facing each other, and the comparison could be done easily.If it were addressed earlier that Manrou was not Yuki’s biological mother, Qin might have still withheld his suspicion, but with Yuki standing next to her, a clear distinction could easily be made.Blood relation, although mysterious, could not deceive anyone.Inheritance was something even more
He looked up just in time to see her hide behind Guy like a startled cat, totally unnerving him. She was so wary of him, yet she was so close to another man. That really put him off. He gave her one last penetrating look before turning away and leisurely occupying the sofa. The atmosphere was bizarre and awkward for a moment. Little Yuki stood at the side, his handsome little face also showing a trace of disdain. Somehow, he felt unhappy at the knowledge that Yuna was Guy’s partner. He felt that she would be more compatible with his father and was startled by this thought. Oh, god… Why did he have such a thought? It was too ridiculous. Still, somehow, he felt a strange and unexplainable closeness to the woman.Why? The little lad was thrown off his guard. The two were indeed father and son; they had the same demanding temperament of wanting to have their ways. Manrou swept her haughty eyes around the room. Her gaze fell on Yuna and felt a thorn in her eyes. The elegant gown o
Weston was out to challenge Guy.Guy’s face turned a shade darker; a chilly look flashed across his usually calm and collected demeanor.He knitted his brows tightly and turned to face Weston. Both men stared at each other; the atmosphere was charged with explosive.“Director, this gown is displayed in the shop, yet it is not for sale. What’s the meaning of this?”Weston arched his lips into a graceful smile and slowly stood up. “To sell or not to sell, it’s my prerogative. No one can interfere with my decision.” The room was once again charged by his commanding presence and tyrannical action.Guy’s eyes were full of hostility, and his muscles turned palpably rigid. As he was about to speak, Yuna tugged at his sleeve.He was startled into looking down and saw her pleasant smile. She calmly told him, “Guy, thank you for your kindness, but I think I’ll return the gown.”“Don’t you worry; the dress suits you—”“I still prefer the gown that Qin and you have selected earlier… I really like
“Take it off.”One heartless command from him pinned her to the spot in utter embarrassment.“Why?”“Did I give you permission to wear this?” He snorted.Her face turned stiff and ugly.She did not understand; he had always given in to her demands. She could have whatever she wanted. He always spoiled her and would agree to anything she asked for – even if it was unreasonable.Why was he suddenly so cold and distant toward her?“Why? Why must I take it off? You mean I can’t compare to her? That b*tch—”“Take it off. I’ll give you five minutes to change into another dress.” With that, he fixed his gaze on his wristwatch. He was counting the time down.“I won’t!” She was on the verge of tears. “I like this. I am going to wear this to the gala tonight!”He frostily said, “I have limited patience.”“Zhe…” She was alarmed. He had never been heartless to her before.Yuna must have been a vixen incarnate. All men have been bewitched by her.“One minute left,” he coldly warned.This was a hin
Nasi could not make out what they were talking about, but she knew that she was currently the center of attention with the many jealous pairs of eyes looking at her. Her heart was smug as she strutted to the entrance with her head high and ample bust raised. She was politely blocked by the concierge at the door, however.“How are you, madam? Kindly show your gala invitation card, please.”Nasi was momentarily thrown off but quickly recovered herself. With her proud chin lifted high, she sneered at the man. “What is the meaning of this? Are you asking me for an invitation card? Do you think I’ll attend this gala without an invitation?”“Sorry, madam, you have misunderstood. Asking for an invitation card from a guest is one of the protocols for tonight.” The concierge’s face continued to smile politely, though there were doubts in his eyes.Rigorous entry protocols were being followed for tonight’s gala. This was to prevent the young, naïve, and unpopular models and starlets from gatecra
Guy and Yuna made their way to the middle of the venue. Gripping a golden pen, he drew an elegant signature at the center of the signature board. The gala’s red-carpet event had, thus, ended.She had many butterflies in her stomach and took several deep breaths in secret. It was too stressful being his female partner.Security was fortunately tight for tonight’s gala. Non-attendees, reporters, paparazzi, and staff were not permitted entry, so Guy’s fans were kept outside.If this were not the case, she might receive quite a bit of trouble.However, despite the tight security, throughout the red-carpet event, she felt uneasy over those envious eyes trained on her.Guy was an excellent idol. The scandals he had were close to none. His usual image was that of an aloof and handsome man, and because of this, several female reporters got smitten with him.However, tonight, the superstar standing next to a newcomer had a gentle smile, which could only appear in movie scenes, on his lips, and
Very satisfied with his grandson, Grandpa Azhe transferred most of Dice’s shares under Weston’s name before the latter even reached adulthood. His only request was for him to marry Manrou.He was not in any position to refuse.It was only up to this point that everything was in upheaval because of that woman.When it came to business, Weston was the elite of the elites. He was ruthless and charismatic. Dice Financial Group held the fate of the financial market.His thirst for conquest was perfectly displayed in this aspect.Right now, he discovered that one woman could equally stir up the same thirst in him.This was especially the case when Yuna Shire, with her exceptional beauty, appeared before him tonight. Her every look and smile moved him deeply.With just one look, he was blown away!Her smile was not meant for him, though. It was meant for that peasant, Guy.His thoughts strayed to that night six years ago as he looked at her. She had anxiously lain in the bed, blindfolded. Sh
