Upon hearing Freya’s question, Venus froze, and the expression on her face broke. A trace of anxiety flickered past Venus’ eyes, and she bit her lower lip with hesitation, her hand balling into a fist. It was as if Venus didn't expect Freya to be in the dark about Lotus’s news that pervades the internet. An apologetic expression overlapped Venus’ anxious expression, and she snuck a glance at Zaire as if to prove her innocence to Zaire and to explain herself. Unfortunately, Zaire’s gaze didn’t even land on Venus, not even once. Zaire’s face darkened immediately, and a cold sneer appeared on his face. The aura exuding from him turned colder, making it seem as if the temperature dropped and the surrounding temperature got colder. Although it might seem as if Venus made a mistake by letting Freya know about the rumor surfacing about Lotus online, in fact, that was all a facade.All Venus’ words were purposely said in order to lead to one thing: Freya knowing about the truth behind Lo
Venus snapped out of her thoughts and wrapped her hands around Darvish's waist demurely. She burrowed into his embrace sweetly and rubbed her head on his chest coquettishly. Venus raised her head and batted her eyelashes at Darvish while using her finger to trace his rock-hard abs with a perfect and innocent demure look hung on her face. If one didn’t know, one might think Venus is being casual with her actions. “I missed you, Darvish.” Venus parted her lips and confessed in a sweet voice. Coupled with the repeated stroking of Darvish’s rock-hard body by Venus’ finger, she felt Darvish’s body turn tense. Venus’ lips curved up immediately. Soon! Victory appears to be nearer.Suddenly, Darvish’s expression turned solemn, and his brows knitted as if he had just deciphered something important. But in the next second, Darvish’s solemn expression dissipates, giving one the thought that it’s just an illusion.Darvish’s lips curved up, and he separated from Venus. He extended his hand and
Giorgi’s insider even revealed that Freya and Fickel didn’t accept Lotus and wanted Zaire to divorce her immediately. The insider told Giorgi that the woman was very cruel, and the meeting with Freya and Fickel ended with Zaire storming off in fury and embarrassment due to his wife’s wicked offense.Giorgi leaned forward and plastered a carefree and leisurely smile on his face to hide his disdainful sneer. Venus is the number one beautiful socialite; how will a man, in his right sense, leave such beauty to marry a peasant of unknown background? The more Giorgi thought like this, the more disdainful he was. But in the next minute, his eyes flickered with excitement. The first-uncle family had always been a force to be reckoned with. If Zaire ends up marrying Venus, doesn’t that mean their family will never catch up with the first family uncle? Immediately, Giorgi’s eyes flickered. Well, since Zaire didn’t end up with Venus, that means their family still had more opportunities to be
“The vote has been cast by the shareholders. It’s time to announce the result.” Secretary Max stood up and declared it, his voice resonating in the conference room. Immediately, he adjusted the glass on the bridge of his nose and strode to the podium calmly.Two weeks ago, the board members voiced their concerns about the unfairness of Fickel Ludovic and his family being the ones to hoard all the top positions in the Ludovic companies after the chairman position. The members finalized their conversations by asking that the positions be rearranged based on the votes of the shareholders or that Fickel’s family be removed from their positions altogether.Chairman Ludovic and Fickel directly agreed to the voting of the board members, which was the reason votes were cast.Oliver Ludovic leaned back in his chair smugly with squinted eyes, drumming lightly with a meaningful smirk plastered on his face. But in the next few minutes, the smug expression was replaced with feigned innocence. Ol
The car sleekly drove into the compound before coming to a stop at the front of the mansion. Without waiting for the driver to park the car properly, Zaire opened the car and alighted from it. He staggered slightly and stared at the mansion with an unfocused gaze.Arthur's eyes widened, and his heart almost flew off his chest upon seeing Zaire’s dangerous act of getting out of the car without waiting for the car to be parked. Too much alcohol is really not a good thing; his composed boss turned out to be like this when drunk. Arthur quickly parked the car and hurried toward Zaire. He bowed slightly and extended his hand in front of Zaire. “Boss, should I help you?” Arthur offered, concern evident in his eyes.Upon hearing Arthur’s offer, Zaire snapped out of his absentmindedness, raised his hand, and massaged his brows. He staggered forward and casually waved his hand in the air, his actions rejecting Arthur’s offer and telling Arthur to leave. Without further ado, Zaire carefully st
A gloomy and dark expression donned Zaire’s face. A contemptuous chortle emitted from his lips. They both had a good night the day before, but now she was avoiding him. Did Lotus do all those things just so he would let her out? Was she acting that night just for Dylan? The more Zaire thinks like this, the more chilling and oppressive aura he exudes.Sweat broke on the manager’s skin, and his legs trembled while bowing to greet the cold-fazed Zaire. “Young. Young master Zaire…”Zaire’s eyes didn’t even land on the manager, not even for once; rather, he strode to the private room. With a loud kick, the private room door opened wide ajar, causing the members of the room to freeze.Zaire cast a cold glance at the irrelevant people and bellowed coldly, “Get lost.”Without hesitation, the call girls immediately stood up and fled from the room, and the room regained its silence.Quist's brows furrowed, and his back chilled. But he had just helped Zaire and the beauty get back together; w
“Young master Zaire, young master Reath, and young master Quist, please sit. Please sit.” The class president quickly stood up and approached the three with a joyful and fawning smile on his face. Immediately, he led them toward an empty couch and ordered the attendant to quickly clean it before the three sat.After the attendant cleaned the sofa, Zaire, Reath, and Quist indifferently sat on the sofa. Zaire leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes, indifferent to the activities. Reath picked up his phone and focused his attention on it.Upon seeing the tense crowd, Quist waved his hand lightheartedly. “We are all classmates; just continue with what you’re doing.”Upon hearing this, the president nodded his head enthusiastically. “We are playing a game of truth and dare; are the young masters interested?” He questioned. Immediately, all the girls in the room fixed their eyes on the three like candy. If they could ever be dared to act touchy with either of the three, that would be t
Ring The sudden ringing of an alarm made Lotus roused from sleep. Lotus yawned and stretched her hand tiredly before sitting up. She picked up the alarm and turned it off before returning to sleep. She was about to fall into deep sleep when her phone alarm also began to ring. Lotus almost let out a curse, but she suppressed it and instead picked up her phone. She was about to swipe off the alarm when she saw the title of the alarm. Lotus’ eyes immediately flew wide open, her sleepiness disappeared, and she sat up. Lotus froze due to shock. She couldn’t believe that she had forgotten about her mom’s death anniversary that was to happen the next day, but thinking about all the things she had been through for the past few days, it’s no wonder. Lotus’s eyes darted about until they fell on the cold bed. Ever since Zaire strode out of the room and the mansion last night, Zaire didn’t return. Suddenly, a sense of guilt crept onto Lotus, and she smacked her lips together. In fact, the
