“We’ve been filming for two months. Thanked goodness ‘Youth 1990’ pushed forward the taping schedule or else, we’re done.” Dylan used his usual exaggerated tone as he slumped next to Ashley who was busy packing her things.

“You better wash up. You stink.” Ashley was the first one to excuse herself in the film’s celebration party. As someone who had seen too many dark shits in the industry, drinking was a ticket to tabloids.

With this in mind, Ashley decided to symbolically toast with the crew, ate her dinner, and faked an illness which worked perfectly fine. This time, she was in a hurry to pack her things because tomorrow was the day that she would start the first step of the many ones in building an empire of her own—Rosemary Jewelry Store’s grand opening.

    After many years of being the CEO of Elijah Consortium, even when the time when he first became one and many questioned him, this was the first time that Jaxon Elijah was stumped by a question. And the person who left him speechless was his son who could barely reach his waist.“Who told you that?” Jaxon immediately thought of the child’s mother. “Did your mother talk nonsense again?”Scottie’s innocent eyes blinked and still stared straight at Jaxon’s eyes. “I called Mom because…because…I’m sad. Daddy leaves Scottie alone again. I called Mom. Scottie always saw that sick auntie with Daddy…always with Daddy.” He paused as if he hesitated for a moment before he continued. This time, Scottie’s eyes were slightly red. “Daddy, my friend said that his Daddy and Mommy are filing for divorce because of another auntie. Am I…am I going to be like my friend?”Jaxon finally stood up. He closed the meager amount of distance between him and his son. It only took him three steps, but at this moment

    The stone cutter master picked up the wool that Ashley pushed. This was the apple-sized wool that Ashley first discovered which was surrounded by thick white smoke to the point that it was barely visible for him when using the Jade Eyes.“How to cut it?” asked the stone cutter master. With the way he moved, it was shown that he was an expert in this field.Seeing that there were at most ten wools in her cart, the people who were still leisurely choosing and observing the wools had become interested and crowded the stone cutting area. This place was located at the innermost part of the store but it was only a few steps away from the display area of the wools.Ashley did not mind the crowd. In her eyes, they were all his money bags. Instead, she focused on the apple-sized wool. With the use of her lucky physique, she was able to determine how to solve the wool without damaging the jadeite inside it.“Grind it.”The sound of the tool used for grinding wools resounded.

    Every raw jade stone with a thick white smoke surrounding it was selected by Ashley. It all came in different sizes and shapes but the quality inside—only Ashley knew that each one was more valuable than the other.There were raw wools as big as a fist while there were as big as a human torso. Common raw jade stones were as big as a football or as huge as a human head.Three hours later, all the carts were filled with raw jade stones. Secretly, the sales guide could not help but think that the customer was a prodigal for buying so much without the guide of an expert. The sales guide even concluded that maybe the store where Ashley was working was short with money that was why they were pushed to the point of relying on luck. Unbeknownst to the sales guide, all the wools contained jadeites which were high class category!When the truck of Ashley’s processing plant came, she watched for a few minutes before she proceeded to the other nearest supply points.

    It was not until Ashley failed to see her son’s small silhouette that she finally withdrew her gaze. She did not bother to glance at the towering figure of the man standing next to the gate of the Elijah Mansion like a damn door god.Before Ashley could dash away, Jaxon crossed the distance between them. The next moment, he was standing next to her window, knocking the mirror. He wanted to talk with her, something she was able to avoid the last time.Ashley hated this feeling of being oppressed. But she also knew that running away was not the solution; they had to sit down and talk about it. So she opened the window and said: “There’s a nearest coffee shop here with good privacy. I will wait for you there for five minutes. If you are not there within that period, I’m out.”Without waiting for his answer, Ashley’s car drove away, leaving a solemn-looking Jaxon Elijah. He looked back at Harold. “Let’s go.”Harold drove the phantom car, dropping Jaxon before he looked for a place to park

    “Wow! You are really glowing!” Dylan exclaimed in exaggeration as soon as Ashley entered the nanny van. He only noticed it clearly when she was near him, maybe because Ashley was leaning to a clean and minimalist yet elegant look for tonight.The driver was a veteran found by Jaxon and there was another veteran seated on the shotgun seat. Apart from Momo, Dylan, and Ashley, there was no one at the backseat—it was to the minimal. But looking outside the bullet-proofed nanny van especially configured by Jaxon for this night, there were two cars before the van while there were another two tailing behind them. And those people inside those black tinted cars were all sporting the latest technology of armaments and heavy firepower weapons under the sponsorship of the Elijah Family to the military department’s research and development laboratory.Dylan, whose attention was divided by Ashley—his money making cash cow—and the driver’s arms under those fitted suits, finally noticed something.“

She pointed the door and said: “Leave…” Sighing, she continued: “Let me think things through.”A staggering breath of relief escaped from Jaxon’s lips. He closed his eyes for a moment, hiding the turbulent emotions in them as he whispered: “Alright.”As Jaxon left, he entered his study once more.The silence of the study room did not give him comfort.

By the fourth time, she finally snapped at Izana.“Where to?” Izana drove slowly as if he was just driving in a countryside. His left hand on the stirring wheel while his other hand held Talia’s hand. Coupled with his gentle voice, the indifference in his words was directly muted.But Talia was not buying it anymore.“Back to my villa, where else?!” Talia was almost shrieking right now. “Are you hiding something from me?! You are so sketchy!”Izana merely smiled at her. One mere glance from him and the words that were about to come out from Talia’s lips were swallowed back on instinct.
