Mia and Slaine looked at each other as soon as Gideon left. Both of them glanced at Kalista who was sitting on the sofa with a shy smile on her face.
Slaine cleared her throat and walked over to the woman.
“Hey,” Slaine said, raising her voice slightly.
Kalista waved her hand, returning the greeting as her lips moved to say Hey too.
Afraid that the atmosphere would turn awkward, Mia took out her phone and typed something there.
'My name is Mia and this is Slaine', wrote Mia on her cellphone and showed it to Kalista.
Kalista took out a notebook and pen from the bag Gideon had brought with her.
'I am Kalista', she wrote. 'Thank you for accepting me. Gideon said he didn't want to leave me at Gardenia because there was trouble.'
Mia and Slaine read Kalista's explanation on the notebook.
Not wanting to be left behind, Slaine looked for pen and paper from his brother library. Upon her ret
“What happened?” asked Jaxon to stop the card game, as did Connor and Nicko who were his opponents.“A servant who was recently recruited put a bug in the room, and he also put a low dose of poison into Kalista's food and drink. The pharmacist I contacted said the poison could damage the body's organs in the long term if given in low doses that the body can tolerate,” he explained, instantly making the room temperature drop.Jaxon approached Gideon and patted his friend's shoulder.“Is Kalista okay?” Jaxon asked in a tone of sympathy mixed with anger.Gideon nodded as he ruffled his hair in annoyance. He growled, sounding frustrated and angry at the same time.“Fortunately she didn't eat anything. I'm really worried,” Gideon muttered with his face down as his hands rubbed his nape and head alternately. “So I left Kalista in Danny's penthouse after sweeping the entire Gardenia Castle,&rdquo
Slaine gave a lingerie to Kalista who looked at the four women in front of her with a dumbfounded face.'Put it on, you'll definitely look really pretty in this,' Slaine wrote at the top of the note.Once again, Kalista noticed the lingerie. She didn't seem interested in wearing it because she looked at her stomach several times.Krista approached the angelic woman and wrote something on it.“It’s a trend to take pictures wearing lingerie and then flaunt it on social media these days, especially for pregnant women. Rest assured, many women out there pose for the camera and upload it to Ingram. Do you want me to show some celebrities who did it?'Krista was about to take out her cellphone when Kalista hold her movement.'Okay, I believe it,' replied Kalista who immediately got a happy smile from Krista.'Don't worry, you will definitely look very beautiful,' added Krista so that the women
After Danny hung up the call with Slaine because there was no solution, Jaxon approached.“I want you to give me access to CCTV, Danny,” Jaxon asked in a low voice.After the connection to Mia is not picked up, Jaxon also called Axel who was in charge of security for the Penthouse where Mia and those women are, but the man refuses to give him access to view CCTV because Danny's prohibition.“Is CCTV going to blur the other women and only show Mia herself? They're not wearing anything at the moment,” Danny refused which added to his frustration.Jaxon ruffled his hair into a mess. He asked for Danny as his heart was not at ease.“Mia isn't picking up my calls, I have to see that woman before she does crazy things!”There was a snort from Rey and Nicko at the same time. They believed, the real reason was because Jaxon was not satisfied to see Mia’s body.“You can make that woman play model
Arriving at Aurelia, Mia opened the cupboard with a surprised look because almost all the contents of the wardrobe were filled with various models of Lingerie. She also ran out with both hands full of lingerie and looked for Jaxon who Mia knew was in the study room.“Jaxon!” Mia called while knocking on the door in front of her.“Come in,” Jaxon answered from inside.Mia went inside in a hurry and found Jaxon sitting relaxed on his chair with his arms folded to his chest.“What is it, Dolcezza?” Jaxon asked innocently, one eyebrow raised, head tilted slightly to the left.Mia's hand stretched forward, showing a pile of lingerie in her hand.“I can't find a single shirt in the closet, and it's all full of lingerie!” she growled in a rising voice.Jaxon smiled broadly, his eyes twinkling.“Oh,” Jaxon said as if he remembered something. “I seem to have forgott
Aurelia Castle now had an uninvited guest. It was Gia Leonore, who was followed by her loyal bodyguard, Henrieta.There was a commotion all the way through the gates into the Castle, making all the maids and guards ready for any possible chaos, as Gia was famous for making her granddaughter's life hell every time she came to Aurelia.In fact, people still remembered hundreds of women queuing along the gates just to audition for the ideal wife for Jaxon Bradwood. Emily and Piper remembered very well the flyers that had left on the street, and were distributed all the way to the neighboring town. Not to mention the billboards all over town, and advertisements everywhere had big letters that read; 'Jaxon Bradwood is looking for the ideal wife'.At that time, Jaxon felt immense shame because of his grandmother's actions. And since then his grandmother was never again allowed to set foot in Aurelia Castle, but it seemed the ban was not enforced after t
In the afternoon, Gia invited Mia to take a walk outside for a while. She wanted to spend time with the future Mrs. Bradwood, in order to get to know her well. After a long protest from Jaxon who forbade Mia to travel only accompanied by Henrieta as a bodyguard, Jaxon relented. Because he knew that his grandmother was too stubborn.“Henrieta, I want to stop at the supermarket,” said Gia who instructed Henrieta not to return to Aurelia immediately. “Would you like some ice cream, dear?” Gia asked offering Mia who was sitting next to her.“I also want to find snacks,” Mia agreed.The two women entered the supermarket at the same time and they separated to look for each other's needs.While choosing potato crackers, Mia saw a familiar male figure. She almost gasped when she saw the man in front who had Jaxon's facial features, and the memory of a few months ago at GC came back.“B
All the people inside the supermarket jumped out of the way when they saw a group of men in black suits got out of the row of cars that parked right in front of the entrance lobby. A security guard paved the way to make it easier for those men to enter the scene.Mia's body, which was lying between a pile of bottles and a fallen shelf, was move in the employee locker room. A doctor was seen with the group of men in black suits.“Doctor Timothy,” said the supermarket manager when he saw one of Denver's most famous doctors rush in.“Where is she?” asked Timothy who was immediately directed to the room where Mia was laid.Gia Leonore and Henrieta stood guard beside Mia when Timothy entered the room.“Oh, thanks God, finally you’re here,” said Gia welcoming Timothy. “Where's my grandson?” Gia asked when she didn't see Jaxon behind the man.“He's checking CCTV in the security
Mia woke up in a whitewashed room. The antiseptic smell was tickling her nose so she looked around confusedly. Her head moved to the side, and found jet black eyes staring at her. A faint smile crossed her beautiful face.“Hey,” said Mia. “Where am I?” Mia asked in a deep voice. She felt like swallowing cotton, her mouth was dry and dragging.Jaxon who was sitting next to Mia came closer and stroked Mia’s head gently.“You're in the hospital,” Jaxon replied as he put the glass to Mia's dry lips. He helped Mia carefully by lifting her head.“How did I get here?” Mia asked while holding back the urge not to yawn. She wanted to stay awake, but felt her eyelids heavy.“Don't hold back, Dolcezza. Just sleep,” said Jaxon in a soft voice as he touched Mia's eyelids to close them.It didn't take long for Mia to fall back asleep.Hearing the soft snoring of the girl
