Her white blouse was messy and scattered, revealing her faintly discernible pearl-like skin. Her soft hair that was as smooth as seaweed spread out, exuding a sweet fragrance. A few strands of her hair were stuck to her cherry red lips, which was especially enchanting.She hadn’t left yet?What was she doing by lying here?“Xavia…” Just as Zivon was about to speak up, he felt a sudden surge of strange feeling overpowering his body. Zivon, who had been repeatedly set up by women before, was very familiar with this feeling: he was clearly being set up again!However, they were all important shareholders tonight. So, who would do such a thing?Boom!Click!Before he could think clearly, the sound of closing and locking the door sounded behind him.When Zivon turned around, he saw someone had shut the room’s door. So, he strode over and said, “Who’s there? Open the door!”“Daddy, it’s me.”“Maison? Why are you closing the door? Hurry up and open the door.” Zivon began to feel inc
“Little Bun, I have succeeded. My daddy and your mommy are in the room now but my daddy is so scary. He said that he wants to beat the crap out of me. I guess that I will die a horrible death tomorrow. I need to come to your house to take refuge.”“Okay. I will wait for you. By the way, don’t forget to take pictures. When the time comes, we have to upload those pictures on the Internet like your grandparents did. We will act first before reporting on it afterwards. They will have to get married later even if they do not want to.”“Don’t worry. I’ve already installed an all-round surveillance camera in the room and I will upload the pictures first thing in the morning tomorrow.”“Little Brother, you’re so smart.”“Of course, since it’s for the sake of daddy’s happiness.”The proud Maison carried his small school bag arrogantly, turned off all the lights in the villa and slipped out of the villa before taking a cab away…Anyone who saw the villa would think that they were all aslee
Her hysterical voice that hit the empty walls emitted a burst of clear and powerful echoes.Her eyes were flushed red and her tears kept falling like broken beads. Her entire body was also trembling out of excessive anger. Zivon narrowed his eyes and his deep eyes seemed to have fallen into an endless icy abyss. Other women would do anything to have intercourse with him, but she was different. She was so disgusted as if this would kill her. His voice carried a hint of anger. “Do you really feel so aggrieved just because you slept with me? Huh?”Xavia clenched her fists tightly. “Otherwise? Should I be thanking God? Should I hang up lanterns and hang up decorations and delightfully thank you for it then?!“Zivon Burton, not everyone would cherish you. At least, it’s not the case for me! You’re just a complete scumbag! A great scumbag! I must be really unlucky to have ended up in your hands!“Aren’t you supposed to return to the capital city today? You should get lost as soon as
That woman?It would have been great if that was the case!Zivon turned his face sideways and showed Zayne the slap mark on his face.“Oh my god! Did she give you this slap? She’s too wild, right? What happened next? What did she say? What did she do?” Zayne was like someone who enjoyed gossiping as he continued asking Zivon these endless questions.When Zivon thought about those words that Xavia had said, he felt even more annoyed and angry and glanced coldly at Zayne.“Are you a woman? Why are you being so noisy?”“I…”“Shut up and apply the medication for me.”Zayne was speechless.How could he just tell him half of the story?!He gloomily gave Zivon a shot of tranquilizer and eliminated the residual drug in his body before applying the anti-inflammatory medication on him.The slap mark on his fair and handsome cheek was very obvious, leaving streaks of blood behind. Zayne could not help but mock. “That woman hit too ruthlessly, right? Then again, it was also a night of
Xavia was shocked and thought that she had heard Dolly wrongly.Dolly nodded solemnly. “Yes. The young master does not seem like an irresponsible person. If you marry him, you can get rid of Jenna’s threats and constant bullying. Your family can also be reunited too. Wouldn’t that be a great thing?“In my opinion, this is the destiny that the both of you have created. It’s an inescapable fate.”“Fate? My ass! I will never marry him, not even if I am going to get beaten to death!” Xavia said determinedly, “He is the kind of man who would engage in premarital sex and spend money to deal with the aftermath. So, how clean do you think he is? He probably has ninety nine or a hundred women. Should I let him turn me into a cuckold every day in future if I were to marry him?”“Besides that, his affair with Jenna is known throughout the country and everyone is offering them their most sincere blessings. If I were to get in between them now, wouldn’t I be drowned by harsh criticisms then? An
Xavia was startled. He let both of them drink the milk? So, Zivon drank it too?So, she had misunderstood him this morning…Just as she was heartbroken, she seemed to have keenly caught a hint from Maison’s words, so she gazed sharply at Yulia’s guilty face. Then, she came to a sudden realization.“Yulia, were you the one who told Maison that I liked his daddy?”Yulia replied, “…Mommy, I was wrong.”So, it was really Yulia! Xavia suddenly felt as though she had just received a critical blow to her chest. If she had not let Yulia misunderstand from the beginning or she had explained things clearly to her, this incident would not have happened. She was the one who had set herself up in the end, right? She was also at fault in this incident. So, she could not blame Zivon for it…After listening to the news, Nathan finally understood what had happened. It was no wonder why the young master was so angry. It turned out that he had spent the night with Xavia…Nathan did not dare to
A low-key and steady car pulled up and stopped by the roadside.Stefan opened the car door and got out of the car gracefully. He was holding a rose in his hand. “Good morning, Xavia.”When Xavia saw him all of a sudden, she felt an overwhelming sense of shame and a guilty conscience in her heart. “Chairman Talton, why are you here so early?”“I didn’t pick you up last night, and I promised I would accompany you today.” Stefan rubbed her head gently. Then, he continued speaking in an increasingly gentle voice. “We have been dating for almost half a month now. So, when will you be changing the way that you address me? Hmm?”His gentle movements and his affectionate voice could really make a person feel extremely loved. He, the dignified chairman, had been treating her so well, but she betrayed him and did something to let him down… Xavia, who was feeling even more and more guilty, did not even know how she should explain the matter last night. It would be tragic no matter h
Nathan’s face became stiff as he felt distressed. “Young Master…”Xavia was even more heartbroken and her eyes were flushed red. Just as Zivon was about to hit Maison again, Xavia rushed over and hugged Maison. With a ‘smack’ sound, the whip landed directly on her back and a blood wound also appeared. Zivon’s face fell as he retracted the whip immediately. “What are you doing? He made a big mistake. If it weren’t because of my quick response, our photos would have already been all over the Internet now. Burton Group and your reputation would have already been completely ruined.” He was stern and furious. He had always been strict with himself and would never allow himself to make such mistakes, let alone allow his son to make such a big mistake.Xavia was startled. Maison had prepared photos too?But no matter what it was, the injury might be on her son’s body but the pain was in the mother’s heart. She could not bear it. “It’s my fault. I did not explain to Yulia about
Staring in shock at the kneeling man, Yulia mustered her remaining sanity as she replied, “B-but you’re younger-” “Even if that’s the case, doesn’t that mean that I’m much more ‘capable’ than your older pursuers…?” …Why were his words so suggestive all of a sudden?! Forcing herself to calm down, she took a deep breath before saying, “…Elliot, I’m not sure what spurred this decision, but… I’m not the one for you. Please find someone your age. I’m sorry.” After saying that, she strode straight for the car… but before she could start the engine, she couldn’t help but notice how desolate he looked standing under the pouring rain… Clenching her fists, it took her a while to finally sigh and walk back to him… “…Are you really sure about this?” asked Yulia, much to Elliot’s delight. “I am! Please! Give me a chance! You won’t regret it!” …When he put it that way, all Yulia could do was help him up before finally deciding to return his kiss… Sure, things had taken a sudden, unex
She stared in horror as he removed his shirt right there and then! “W-what are you doing?!” yelped the startled woman as she quickly looked the other way. “…Huh? I mean, I’m drenched, so…” “E-even so, you shouldn’t change right in front of me!” “…Yulia, we bathed together as children… It’s not like you haven’t seen everything already…” “Y-you can’t compare that to this situation…!” “Fine, fine, I… Um… Go cook, I guess… I’ll go get a change upstairs first…” muttered Elliot as he headed upstairs. Yulia herself had to try her best to calm down! After all, Elliot had been plaguing her mind in the past few days, and… she even had dreams where he had… …No! She couldn’t be thinking about such things! She needed to cook! Maybe that would help get her mind out of the gutter! Once that was done, she’d leave and finally start devising a plan to get rid of him…! As Yulia scurried off, Elliot himself was currently staring at an old photo that showed him eating some candy in Yulia’
Just as she had arrived at her car, the president of the Halls Group suddenly walked up to her, a bouquet in hand! The Halls Group had collaborated several times with the Burtons before, and because of that, she was well acquainted with the man. Sadly, he had also proposed to her on multiple occasions… and though she kept rejecting him, he never seemed to get the hint! “There you are, Miss Burton… Since you’re off work, I was wondering if you’d join me for dinner tonight…” asked the charming man. Feeling awkward, she was just about to come up with an excuse when Elliot suddenly grabbed her by the waist and said, “Oh? Another one of your admirers, Yulia…? Sorry, but she already has a boyfriend, my man. If that doesn’t deter you enough, then you should know that she prefers her partners younger. Now please leave.” Startled to hear that, the man glanced at Yulia, his eyes begging for an explanation… Yulia herself was eager to just escape this embarrassing situation, but before s
With that tale done, it was now time to return to Yulia’s story… Ever since she was a child, she had undergone countless hardships with her mother… and even after she was able to reunite with her father, things didn’t go much easier from there. To make matters worse, Fabiola ended up getting kidnapped for the longest time, resulting in Frank ending up the way he was today… Because of all that, it only made sense that she’d mature much sooner than others her age, and unlike the naïve girl she used to be, she was an extremely competent woman today. Alas, because of how used she became with working, she soon lost the urge to find herself a romantic interest… Things continued that way until… Well, that time that Elliot… …Wait, what was she thinking?! He was younger than her, for heaven’s sake! Quickly shaking her head, she attempted to force herself to concentrate on work again… But before long, a knock was heard on the door. After being allowed in, the department manager entered t
Knowing that there was no point in keeping things a secret anymore, Rea took a deep breath before saying, “…Alright, so… The truth is, I’ve always been highly competent, but… I’ve been pretending to be useless just so that you’d eventually marry me… The trip my parents are taking… That was my suggestion too…” Feeling speechless, it took Frank a long while to reply, “…So you weren’t really drunk when you did all that last night?” Pursing her lips, Rea awkwardly muttered, “…I wasn’t… Luna suggested it, and since it sounded like a good idea to accelerate things…” …Fucking hell, to think that he had fallen straight into her trap without even putting up a fight! Watching as he glowered at her, Rea gulped before adding, “A-anyway, now that we’re married and there’s potentially a baby in my belly, you won’t divorce me, right…?” “…Oh, believe me when I say that divorce is the easy way out! From today onward, I’m making you pay for your actions for the rest of your life!” Fast forwa
Fast forward to the next morning, Rea awoke with a yawn… What a nice sleep… Wait. Why was she naked? And why was Frank…?! Her following scream immediately woke the icy man up… and upon looking at her, he was immediately reminded of what had transpired last night! Essentially, Rea ended up clinging to him, and though he initially wanted to just carry her to bed to let her rest… Damn it! Had she really been that sensual?! How had he lost control so easily?! His train of thought was cut short when he realized that Rea was bawling her eyes out… and after rubbing his temples, he was prompted to say, “…Why are you crying when you’re the one who initiated this? I’ll have you know that I never forced you-” “I-I know, but…! I’ve just…! This is my first time…!” whimpered the quivering woman, prompting Frank to purse his lips. As if he wasn’t in the same situation… “…You’re not alone there.” “It’s not the same! Men are free to sleep with whoever they want but when it comes to women, I’l
“Say, wouldn’t you agree that the food smells delicious…? Why don’t I teach you how to grill, Rea…? Oh, but make sure to take your clothes off first before we start! Wouldn’t want them to get dirty…” With how drunk Rea was, she wasn’t able to fully register his words… and just as he was about to touch her clothes, an icy voice roared, “Stop right there…!” Instantly feeling a shiver run down his spine, the man turned around… and to his horror, it was Frank! Young Master Burton’s perpetually icy son…! Why the hell was he here?! Before the frightened intern could think of how to even react, Frank walked up to him and growled, “Leave now before I chop your hands off…! Don’t make me repeat myself!” Nodding in terror, the man frantically bolted off… and once he was out of sight, Frank glared at the tipsy Rea before adding, “This is what you meant by learning how to be more responsible…?!” “Huh…? But the food really did smell super good… I want to learn…” mumbled the drunk woman.
After leaving his office, he headed off to look for Rea. She had said that she wanted to use the bathroom, but… It had already been half an hour since she disappeared. What trouble had that idiot gotten herself into this time? Thankfully, it wasn’t long before he found her laughing along with some of his interns… When the interns saw him, they were quick to bow and say, “Good morning, Mr. Burton.” Barely even glancing at them, Frank looked at Rea and said, “It’s time to head home.” “I… Won’t be following you back…” “…And why is that? Are your parents back?” “No, it’s just… These are my good friends back from school, and they’ve been staying together to learn to be more independent… With that said… I think that staying with them will be a good start for me to learn more about how the world works. Thank you for taking care of me up till this point, Frank… I won’t bother you anymore.” Raising a slight brow, Frank then looked at the interns for a while before saying, “…Are you
Regardless, after leaving her in the room, Frank returned to the shower to cool himself off… but no matter what he did, he simply remained irked. It got to the point where he couldn’t relax at all, and after wrapping a towel around his waist, he grabbed his phone to send his father a text. ‘Was there really nobody else who could’ve taken care of Rea?’ ‘What? Can’t even care for a woman properly.’ ‘I’m a busy man.’ ‘I trust in your time management skills.’ …Though he really wanted to tell Zivon that he had misplaced his trust in him, he didn’t want to disappoint his father either. With that, all he could do was clench his fists before giving Rea’s parents a call… “Hello? Frank? Why are you calling at this time of night?” “…When are you and Uncle Saltman returning, Aunt?” asked Frank who wanted them to take back their idiot already! “…Huh? What was that? Sorry, the line isn’t very good… I hope Rea isn’t giving you too hard a time! Don’t worry, we’ll be back after about a
