Joanna noticed Zayn's unusual behaviour. Then, she traced his stare and saw the red marks on Bethany's neck. Suddenly her pupils constricted and she felt a strong sense of danger. She was so gripped with fear that she struggled to breathe. As an observer, Joanna was able to see clearly what was happening. The way he looked at Bethany's marks on the neck showed that he was jealous. He had known Bethany for such a short time and now he already had feelings for her. In comparison, Danica was on this side for five years and he had no interest in her. She decided there and then that she had to drive Bethany away as soon as possible otherwise she would not have a moment's peace. Thus, Joanna clenched her fists tightly and began to scheme. The meeting ended and everyone started to leave until only the three of them remained. Bethany approached Zayn and was about to discuss something regarding the models. Suddenly, the conference room door opened and a tall man entered. "Zayn! It's b
The reason why she was so certain that Joanna was involved was that only Zayn and Joanna were aware that she had met Bent. Zayn would never do such a thing and so it only left Joanna. She simply wanted to ruin Bethany's reputation at the Blue ridge group. What an unscrupulous thing to do. Everyone was shocked to hear what Bethany said and a few appeared guilty. Bethany recognized that those were the ones who were close to Joanna. All of them did not have any talents and repeatedly sucked up Joanna. "It's the few of you!" Bethany looked at them. When they realized that they had been discovered, they outrightly admitted, "So what?". “Apologize!" Bethany calmly demanded. Several people stood up and asked, "On what grounds? You did these shameful things so why can't we talk about it?” Bethany scoffed, “Shameful things? I don't even know when I was screwing Mr. Bent, Now you accuse me of it without any proof? How despicable. I will give you another chance to apologize and clear my name in
"Shush!" Bethany placed a finger to her lips and signalled her to remain quiet. " Joanna, we're just outside the CEO's office. Do you want to attract Mr. Meyer to come out and see your nasty behaviour and hear your filthy words?” Joanna froze on hearing and quickly composed herself as she said softly, "Just you wait, Bethany, we're not done with this!" She had always thought that Bethany was just an ordinary woman. However, the past few days have shown her a different side of this weak woman. "Great, bring it on!" Bethany replied calmly and walked past her towards the elevator. Once she was back at the design department, those rumour mongers had already cleared their workspace and left. The others looked at Bethany differently and became more respectful. They could not help but change their attitude towards her, as not only could she remove those troublemakers, but she also took over Joanna's position! Bethany did not care that the designers maintained a distance from her.
Zayn slapped the application form on Gael's body and ordered, "Send someone to give her this. Let her choose the models and hand it up." "Yes!" Gael grabbed the form frantically and wondered why Zayn did not send someone and insisted on bringing it over. However, when he was here, he did not take it over to Bethany. Gael held onto the form until they were back at the office. He looked for his assistant and told her to send the form to Bethany. Bethany had driven Bent off just before she received the form. She increasingly felt that Bent was insane. Not only did he lay a hand on her, but he even said that he liked her and wanted to court her. “I thought I only had to deal with Zayn. Never had I imagined that I would have to deal with the entire crazy family. She thought. She would be a fool to believe him. She was not blind and could see his coldness. It was obvious that he only used the excuse that he liked her to get close to her. Though she did not know his purpose for getting close
Bethany's heart sank and she shuddered when she heard his reply. She could sense that he was serious. If he knew that all of his shares were hers, he would try to take them back and she could do nothing about it. away from him! Bethany used his words to emphasize. She then closed her eyes, leaned back into her seat, and fell asleep. Zayn heard her heavy breathing and was surprised that she was asleep. He looked at Bethany. She was curled up and grabbing her arm. He rubbed his temples and pressed the button to call the stewardess. The stewardess came over and asked, "Sir, can I help you?” "Get me a blanket," Zayn said. “Yes, immediately," The stewardess replied tenderly. Zayn undid his seatbelt and walked over to Bethany's seat. He looked at her for a couple of seconds and then bent down to lower the back of her seat. She naturally stretched out and laid flat. Zayn then took the blanket and covered her with it. He even flicked the hair which was covering her face. He looked at her pale
She was pretty sure that she had never told her size to anyone. Could he have estimated her size just by looking at her? This was a weird thing to her. In the past, he never did anything to put a smile on her face nor did he try to get clothes for her as he did for Danica. Suddenly, he became so sweet to a stranger. Bethany blushed at this thought and felt rather embarrassed. After all, any woman would feel awkward if her size was known by another man. She did not dwell too much on it as she knew that she did not have much time to prepare. She quickly placed down the evening gown and took a shower to prepare herself for the evening. It was already dark when she dressed up and put on her makeup. Bethany picked up her clutch bag, put on her high heels, and walked out of the suite. She was about to knock on Zayn's door when it suddenly opened. Zayn wore a more formal suit than he normally wore. "Mr. Meyer." Bethany greeted him. Zayn looked at Bethany from head to toe and his eyes
Zayn raised his free hand and rubbed his temple and said, "I save her because she is a staff of the Blue Ridge group and not because she is Bent's woman. As their boss, I am responsible for their safety. More importantly, previously she saved me twice!" On hearing, Gael was shocked, remained silent, and thought, ''Oh yeah, if it wasn't for Bethany who saved Mr. Meyer when he was injured, he would have been dead!' Zayn lowered his head and asked solemnly, "Did news of my injury leak out?” If Bent knew that he was injured, he would try all means to prevent his return. Bent would then use the reason that Zayn was hospitalized overseas and unable to return to manage the company he would then convince the elders who were discontented with Zayn to give him their shares of the company. Gael knew what Zayn was worried about and shook his head, "Rest assured, Mr. Meyer, I've controlled the information. Bent doesn't know about it but Miss Medina had checked on your travel details." Zayn's eyes
“Don't worry about it for now. Just listen to mommy.”Bethany did not want to elaborate. Vella saw that her expression was very stern and did not pester. She just nodded and said, "Okay, mommy” “Good girl!" Bethany smiled at her with a warm expression on her face. The video call ended thereafter. After that, she then contacted the kindergarten to apply for a leave of absence for Jenna. Just then, she turned around to see Zayn glaring at her with a serious gaze, her heart skipped a beat at this. “Are you worried that someone will harm your kid?” He asked balancing his weight on the pillow as he tried to sit upright. "Mr. Meyer, you're awake?" Bethany quickly looked in zayn's direction and did not know when zayn woke up and listened to her conversation. Zayn raised his chin and said, “Just.......” “Did I disturb you and made it hard for you to have a good rest?” Bethany quickly interrupted him as she pointed at herself. Zayn shook his head and replied solemnly, “No, I woke up on my own. H
