Mia entered Aurelia with her goji berry-ish face.
Snow watched her curiously, particularly when the girl spoke with herself as if she grumbled about something frustrating her.
“Sweet, he said? What he did has gone me crazy!” Mia pouted next to Snow who stood there opening the door. “That sly man could make me bury my head in the sand! How could he do that in the middle of the corridor?!”
The girl kept walking upstairs, the head was straight. She wasn’t aware Gia Leonore was there, sitting in the living room, watching Mia strode away and listening to her gibberish talk.
As Mia was going upstairs, Gia turned away looking at the door, seeing her grandson standing with hands bulging inside the pocket while his gaze was on the second floor, where Mia stood up.
His lips twitched, resisting his laugh.
“What did you do to the poor girl, Jaxon?” asked Gia looking bold.
Jaxon shrugged his shoulders relu
Romero Vitielo stood in front of glass window of a Penthouse in the middle of Chicago. He was staring at blinking light under him and the passing-by vehicles on the city road. In the meantime one of his subordinates guarded close to the entering gate, crossing his arms behind his body.Both of them remained silent for a long time, standing up straight and watching the city night view of Chicago, until the Beeping sound was heard from electronic key of penthouse, signaling the door was opened from outside.They turned over looking at the man figure who was coming inside the room.For a moment the man was silent in the foyer, staring at Romero with his jet black eyes in detached manner.“I never let anyone get inside my place without permission, so I’m telling you to leave before my bullet cut through your leg,” said the man with low voice as he walked to the sofa and put his black bag which had been hanging around his arms.Romero
Jaxon looks at Mia’s shabby car as it drives to the warehouse junkyard in the yard behind the Red Cage building. He was sipping a cup of coffee while putting his left hand in his pocket pants and watching some of his subordinates destroy that car into pieces.“Are you sure she won’t get angry?” asked Knight Miller, staring at the yellow-faded car.“Hmm... hmm...” Jaxon replied, shrug both shoulders while continuing to sip the remaining coffee.Rey shakes his head as he observes the way Jaxon handling Mia’s life.Just wait till he see, how Mia’s reaction about her favorite old car as a pile of trash among the broken cars.“That car needs to be repaired, so it can work as well.” Knight expressed his opinion, who was very expert in mechanics. He feels sorry if the car becomes junk.Rey nodded in agreement when he heard that, but it seems Jaxon disagreed.“She shouldn’t ride this killer box while I have many collections that can save her life many times when a bullet or possible crash occ
Mia looked at herself in the mirror as she goes round and round, trying the wedding gown.She was pleased with the low chest and the bottom design, a fluffy skirt reminiscent of a Magnificent castle dress princess.The gown highlighted Mia’s big chest, her best assets. Furthermore, with beads crystals on clothes reflecting light luster from the lamp above Mia’s head in the room, it gives an accent of luxury and elegance at the same time.Mia’s slim body looks stunning in the broken white dress, making her can’t take her eyes off the mirror that showed her entire body’s reflection.“Can I see you, dear?” Nana, who had been waiting on the sofa in the front room, was asked.The old woman looked impatient and asked Mia to quickly open the curtain that hides her appearance.“Are you ready?” Mia’s enthusiastic question, of course, makes Gia excited.“Okay, we’ll just pull back the curtain. One... two... three!” exclaimed the designer and assistant who assisted Mia with the fitting.Mia is b
Mia and Jaxon walk out hand in hand after finishing their fitting. Both of them appear hesitant to let go of each other. For the time being, Gia and Henrieta walk behind while whispering about something.“How do you think it would be if we went somewhere and spent time together for a few days?” Jaxon asked abruptly, which prompted Mia to consider the idea.“Do you want to invite me somewhere?”Jaxon smiled softly as he returned Mia’s hand to his lips for a soft kiss that sent vibrations shuddering through her back.“Hmm... I try thinking about it,” Jaxon said, his brow furrowed as if he had something in his head. “Do you like looking at green hills?”Mia stopped for a moment and thought about his idea.“Do you think that’s a good thing to do?”Jaxon slowly nodded. “Sure and we can go kayaking or fishing in the lake’s clear water. Many options are available.”Hearing that, Mia became intrigued, especially while playing on the lake.“When are we going?”“We’re leaving this evening.”Mia
Mia walks quickly out of the car after returning from the boutique, leaving Jaxon perplexed with her demeanor.“Mia? Wait a minute, Mia?”Jaxon stated while Mia ignored him.“Mia!”When Mia continues walking until she reaches the second floor, Jaxon raises his voice and chases her until both of them are inside the room.“What’s wrong with you?” Jaxon inquired as the door behind him closed.“Oh, so, my name is Mia, right now?”Mia turned around and stared fiercely at Jaxon, making adjacent eyebrows go up to his forehead, and looked at Mia puzzled.“Dolcezza,” Jaxon said softly as he approached the girl standing in the middle of the room.Mia throws away her hair and looks out the window.“What is it, hmm...? Can you tell me what caused your sudden change?”Jaxon’s fingers softly caressed Mia’s cheek, and he studied the girl’s face with both of his palm until their eys met back.Mia is frustrated because she has an absurd thought and is unable to tell Jaxon because he will laugh and thi
“This place is really comfortable,” Mia said, making Jaxon laugh softly while sipping hot coffee. Mia also drank almost all the tea she had brewed. “You haven’t seen the best part yet,” Jaxon said, piquing Mia’s interest even more. “Do you still have any surprises for me?” Mia asked, teasing him. Jaxon smiled as he pulled Mia up. “Walk with me? I’ll take you to the lake right now.” They changed their clothes and headed for the path that led them to the lake, not far from the villa. Mia’s mouth almost opened wide when she found the lake had clear water so that she could see the fish swimming freely at her feet. The green bushes around them seemed to be overgrown with wildflowers, whose flowers were in perfect bloom, making her amazed without stopping. “Wow, I didn’t expect you to have a property near a lake as beautiful as this,” Mia muttered as she stared at the butterflies and dragonflies perched among the wildflowers. Jaxon laughed softly and helped Mia get closer to the deepe
Mia refused to go out or even take a walk after the snake incident near the lake. She didn’t want to meet that thing anytime soon. Mia was traumatized by the incident at the Red Cage Compound, so Jaxon decided to bring her back to Denver.While she was busy stuffing clothes into her bag, she asked, “Are you sure we’re going home right now?” Jaxon nodded and grabbed her hand, then told her to leave everything because someone would clean it up.“Staying here doesn’t make you happy either, so we should go back to the city,” Jaxon said, pulling Mia away from the closet.“What about these outfits? I’ve only worn them once,” Mia said, looking at the silk pajamas she wore hanging there.“One of the staff will collect it and donate it to goodwill,” Jaxon explained, which Mia found difficult to accept.Almost all of her clothes end up in the warehouse of the country’s largest used goods donation organization. Even though Mia can still wear it, she doesn’t have to buy new clothes every time J
“You have a lot of confidence, Mister Jaxon Bradwood,” Mia teased.While she doesn’t mind his domineering attitude, Jaxon can be the most annoying man in the world.Even though he possessed all of the women’s desires in a man, he was still a cold-blooded who would become hot-blooded when confronted by her. The accident before was just one example of Jaxon’s ability to do anything with his bare hands.When Jaxon got in the car, he just shrugged and put Mia on his lap.He chose to stay in the backseat with Mia and hold her in his arms until they arrived in Denver. Jaxon didn’t want to be separated from her anymore, even briefly, because the previous incident had also surprised him.Jaxon initially wanted to drive his own car. Still, after much deliberation, he asked one of his subordinates to do so.“You said we were alone at the villa,” Mia said in Jaxon’s ear, causing the corners of Jaxon’s lips to twitch.If Mia knew how many people were watching and targeting her, she would never wa
