“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.

    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.

    “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

    Zaire twisted the doorknob and strode out of the presidential suit in a tailor-made black suit that accentuated his otherworldly appearance.Upon seeing the peerlessly handsome Zaire, Venus unconsciously gulped down and her fingers dug into her palm. Even though Venus' fingers were digging into her palm, her face was calm, as if she couldn’t feel the pain that resulted from her actions. Zaire is really the most impeccably handsome man Venus has ever set her eyes on. Moreover, not only was Zaire handsome, but he was also wealthy and a genius. Such a top-notch, high-quality man, how can Venus ever dare to leave such a man for a woman like Lotus?Thinking like this, Venus' determination to win Zaire increased immediately.

    Mr. Wills pointed at Venus and Mrs. Wills gloomily. “Take a look at the daughter we raised. Is this what the daughter of a reputable family is supposed to be doing early in the morning? Running after a married man in daylight?” He pointed at Venus in exasperation. “If you don't care about yourself, can you pay attention to the company? Because of your deeds, netizens are boycotting the company stars, and the company stock prices are falling rapidly.” He bellowed, his chest heaving and falling heavily due to fury.Mr. Wills points at the sitting Havekin. “Take a look at Havelin. Your big brother has always been a good role model. He has always invested his all in the company, but you’re investing your time running after Zaire Ludovic shamelessly.” Mr. Wills finalized with furyVenus felt a trace of humiliation coursing through her.

    “Yes.” Mr. and Mrs. Wills nodded indifferently. However, in the next second, their eyes widened in shock as if they had just deduced Havelin’s statement, “What? Blind date?” the Wills’ couple exclaimed in shock.They both knew how much Havelin was committed to his work and how indifferent Havelin was to relationship matters. They never expected that Havelin would suddenly shock them. Venus grabbed Havelin's hand and stared at him in bewilderment. She blinked her eyes in curiosity. “Brother, why are you suddenly interested in a blind date? Is something wrong?” She asked in bewilderment.Havelin shook his head, tucked his hands into his pocket, and seriously responded. “I think I'm getting old. It's time to settle down.” He proclaimed with seriousnessUpon hearing Havelin's response, Venus’ lips twitched. Havelin is 26 years old; what did he mean by he's getting old? If one stepped into the city, there were still a majority of men in their late thirties who were yet to marry. Moreover,

It had lush green, beautiful trees and plants surrounding it.Lotus didn’t know much about the history that revolves around the villa, but she knew that her grandfather betrothed the villa to her mom after her mom stubbornly left the Landry family and chose to marry her father. Lotus sighed. She couldn’t help wondering if her late mother regretted her actions on her deathbed. Had her mother chosen to hear out her grandfather and not chose to marry Mr. Meyer, maybe her mom’s life would have been spared. Lotus exhaled and snapped out of the thoughts. Since no one lives in the villa, the villa is dark and deserted.Lotus took a step forward, and certain memories began to invade her memories—sweet memories before her family fell apart and
