"Antoninus lost? What do you mean?" I asked him.
Lucius replied vaguely, "The day you were taken by Roman, my duel with him ended." Four out of seven, I won."
"Not two out of three?"
lucius replied uncomfortably, "Never mind a few games, I won anyway."
"Well," I said, "it's none of my business. It's just a game. I don't care if you win or lose."
"You don't care about the result?"
"Of course not."
A kid takes a game like that seriously!
Lucius snorted, "That's what I thought."
He stretched out and asked, "Do you have any food here? I'm a little hungry."
He did not regard himself as a stranger at all, and had begun to dig in the refrigerator.
Two people in a bunker suddenly burst into a dozen people, just preparing the ingredients can be exhausting.
Fortunately, they were not idle, rushing to help wash vegetables and cut meat, almost pushed the table over.
Even the meal was noisy.
The fir
"Boss, I might need a favor from you." I said."No problem, go ahead."I said, "Antoninus's campaign has been delayed for a while, and I was hoping you could help us out."'Of course you can!Blake grinned and patted me on the shoulder, but sure enough, he was looking down and rubbing his hands. "But... You know, Lily, we don't do this kind of propaganda at this paper. So I'm afraid I can't help you directly. How about I give you the contact information of some of my colleagues, and you go find them?"I knew this was gonna happen.I sighed and stepped aside.Lucius, who was behind me, stepped forward and expertly pressed Blake down on the table, sneering, "Repeat what you just said?"Blake's face turned white. "You... Who are you? Lily! How could you do that?! I'll call security in!"I gave him a faint glance. 'Bark.'"I... Help me! Get me someone now! Security guard!"Just as he spoke, the door was pushed
Once the hype is over, it's time to start preparing for our roving pitch. The first presentation was downtown. It's where the last parade was. Only this time it wasn't Antoninus in armor on the stage, it was me. He didn't show up, so I, the president's personal secretary, had to deliver his campaign message instead. I don't know much about Antoninus' politics, but at least I know what he did, and I have something to say about it. I don't know if the advertisements all over the street played a role, and when I took the stage to preach, the audience came to be particularly large. I even saw a lot of professional reporters and cameras standing in the audience. Good flow of propaganda, actually made a press conference sense. The dark camera came over, and I panicked for a while. However, I was more disturbed by the questions they asked. "How do you and the president know each other?" 'What? I suspect I misheard. But then someone asked, "I hear you and the president have a son
Third-Person POV"Your Majesty, we have found her, the best candidate for your sperm from the blood bank," a servant bows and reports to the man in the dark corridor of a luxury hotel. He dresses in a navy blue Armani couture suit, one hand casually in his pocket. His imposing figure exudes an aura of majesty, even if he doesn't say a word."I see," the man's voice is very deep."The woman is already on your bed. Today is her ovulation date—"Before the servant could finish, the man waves him off.He pushes the door open, and the dimly lit room reveals a woman lying on the bed with flushed cheeks, her blonde hair cascading over her face, mouth, and shoulders.The man's Adam's apple bob slightly. His gaze darkens, making him look like a fierce werewolf hiding in the dark night, ready to pounce on its prey."Why is it getting so hot in here..." Suddenly, the woman's rosy lips utter a moan as she forcefully throws back the sheets, revealing her naked body.The man no longer admires silen
I am taken to the hospital by my family.The doctors bind me to the operating table.Tears stream down my cheeks as I touch my belly uncontrollably.I think it's just a dream, and I haven't done anything wrong.Moreover, the baby has done nothing wrong and is totally innocent. How can I bear to have my baby aborted?"Baby, I'm sorry. Mom can't protect you.""Now regretting it? Too late. You should have taken precautions!" The doctor impatiently spreads my legs apart, raising them on the stirrups.The cold instruments near my vagina, and suddenly, my consciousness becomes clear.I begin to struggle fiercely, but the doctor has two nurses hold me down with force.He holds a syringe in his hand, ready to administer anesthesia to me."NO!" I cry out in despair, but they easily overpower me.Just then, the door to the operating room is pushed open!An older doctor rushes in hurriedly."Wait, please stop the procedure immediately!"The other doctors are puzzled.I'm also somewhat bewildered
"RINGGG..." My alarm suddenly goes off.Damn! It's this hour.I hurry out of the door because I need to pick up my son Chris from kindergarten.On the way, the gaze of that presidential candidate man comes to my mind again. I see his name - Antoninus.I decide to look up information about this man later tonight.When I get off the car, I immediately spot Chris in the crowd. Not only because he is adorable, but also because his aloof demeanor sets him apart from the other kids.His personality is strikingly similar to that man from the other night – cold and composed. Now he stands there all by himself, hands in his pockets, looking disdainfully at the other kids joyfully running into the arms of their parents."Hi there. Moonpie. What are you looking at?" I ask, kissing his cheek.Chris gestures towards the crowd,"Why are they so excited?"I glance over and say with a hint of envy, "They just miss their parents sooooo much!""Even if they miss them, do they have to shout and hug like
I nervously follow behind Eric, and outside the door are parked the five Hummers that appears in the photo, with a Lincoln limousine in the middle.Gallantly, Eric opens the door of the limo for me.I take a deep breath and bravely get in.The car drives for a full four hours on a long forest road before finally stopping in front of a massive manor.Through the car window, I can see a high Gothic castle nestles amid layers of low hollies, exuding an ancient and noble aura, akin to a palace of ancient nobility.Yet, it is only when I step inside that I realize the opulence and splendor here far exceed my imagination.Elegant golden pillars stand on both sides, and intricately patterned Persian carpets extend from under my feet all the way to the end of seemingly endless corridors. It is almost identical to my "dream"!The exquisite soaring domes, the magnificent murals that could be deadly if they fell... Seeing me stunned to the point of daze, Eric couldn't help but smile and says, "M
Suddenly, a man appears in the mirror.I gaze at the man's features in the mirror. His nose is as straight as a mountain peak, and his eyes are as deep as the cosmos.His gaze overlaps with the eyes from my dream five years ago. Even in the darkness, his domineering look pierces through my soul.My heart couldn't help but race uncontrollably,The mature woody scent of Hermès men's cologne fills the air, accompanied by his damn arrogant, cold, and noble aura...I feel like a startled fawn encountering a lion and instinctively take a step back, wanting to turn and run away.But the next second, I grit my teeth, stand my ground, and raise my hand, delivering a fierce slap to his face.A crisp sound echoes in the surroundings, and the crowd fall silent.He didn't expect such a reaction from me.Even the bodyguards are stunned, taking a few seconds to react and then moving towards me."Step back!" he coldly orders.The bodyguards tremble, bowing their heads and retreating.I'm a bit fright
Fangs pierce through his skin.A pungent-sweet taste instantly fills my mouth!He winces in pain, finally releasing his grip on me, stepping back a few paces.I immediately get to my feet, wiping the blood from the corner of my mouth with force. "You demon! Where's Chris? You'd better return him to me right away!"But he flatly denies, "Not possible."I know he will answer like that.I raise my phone, the call has already connected. "This is the L District Police Station's number. Would you dare to repeat what you just said?"The policeman who had once suspected my association with a certain important figure had been bothering me.It is fortunate I can use him to my advantage!Before coming here, I have secretly dialed that policeman's number, keeping the call active throughout!"Officer Smith? Are you still there?"I press the speakerphone button firmly, and the officer on the other end speaks with stern words, "Yes, I'm with you, Miss Lily." he continues, "This is detective Smith!
