Upon seeing Zaire step out of the bathroom, Lotus sat up on the bed and placed her phone next to her side. Her eyes landed on the ties, shoes, and belt she bought, and she quickly picked up the black ties before stretching them toward him eagerly. "Zaire, try it on."Immediately, Lotus got off the bed and strode toward Zaire, holding the tie.Zaire's eyes flickered, and his expression softened. He didn't know when this woman bought this, nor did he receive an alert; didn't that mean she bought it with her money? The thought that she recalled him enough to buy a gift for him made his heart turn warm. He picked her up, causing her legs to wrap around him. Zaire kissed Lotus' forehead fondly. "When?"Lotus' eyes shone, and her lips curved up. "It's a secret." She retorted and raised her chin cockily; her lips quirked up in a wicked grin, causing him to chuckle.Zaire stretched out his hand, his actions signifying that Lotus put on the tie for him.Lotus excitedly nodded her head; she hoo
Aster's face reddened, her eyes fierce, and her chest heaving due to fury. Her hands balled into a fist, she stormed toward the Meyer mansion and made her way toward Riley's room.The instant Aster pushed open the door to Riley's room, Aster broke down into soft and pitiful tears. She pointed her hand in the air and stomped her feet on the floor in grievance."Mom, how dare she? How dare that b*tch humiliate me? I was the reason that bitch had the good luck she currently has. She's supposed to fawn on me and not treat me like that. How dare she? How dare she humiliate me and have me thrown out and banned from the Luxurey mall? Mom, I want to rip that slut apart." Aster bellowed while sobbing and sniffing pitifully.Upon hearing Aster's words, Riley's expression broke. She put down the fashion magazine she was going through and stood up. She walked toward Aster, engulfed Aster in a motherly hug, and began to gently pat Aster's back.Riley subtly gnashed her teeth together while suppress
"Zaire, you lustful beast!" The sudden cry of Lotus broke the calmness of the mansion.Lotus lay on the bed while biting her lower lip and holding her breath. She stared at the ceiling with her eyes moist with aggrieved tears. That jerk had really gone too far. She really didn't want to go anywhere anymore. Seeing how her body hurts so much, all Lotus wanted was to lay in bed all week. Lotus only wanted to be a salted fish; is she asking for too much?Lotus' eyes fell on the bedside clock, and she discovered that it was almost 10:00 Clock in the morning. That lustful person had told her that he was bringing her to Grandpa Ludovic today, yet he had tossed Lotus about until morning. How is Lotus supposed to walk?Lotus really wanted to cry a river."Baby, you're up." As soon as Zaire completed his words, the door was pushed open. Zaire currently had an apron on and gloves fixed to his hands. Zaire's right hand held a pan filled with fried eggs, while his left hand held a clean plate
"Young master, young madam." The Old Butler of Chairman Louis Ludovic's mansion bent slightly to greet Zaire and Lotus as soon as they alighted from Zaire's car.Zaire nodded in greeting, and Lotus bowed slightly in return.Lotus took a deep breath and bit her lower lip to suppress the nervousness and anxiety creeping into her system. What if Grandpa Zaire doesn't like her just like the other members of the Ludovic family..."It'll be fine." Zaire squeezed her hand and consoled her gently. Regardless of what the outcome might be, he'll always stand by her side. Even though he only consoled her with those three words, his actions conveyed the implicit meaning behind his words.Lotus took a deep breath and pinched her palm slightly to regain control of her emotions. After a few seconds, Lotus nodded her head, her actions signifying that they could both leave.Immediately, Zaire wrapped his hands around Lotus' shoulder and patiently began to lead Lotus into the magnificent and grand-size
"Lad, you're quite good." The sudden praise from Grandpa Ludovic snapped Venus out of her thoughts.Venus' eyes landed on the chess board, and her eyes narrowed.It turns out that that bitch was still playing with Grandpa Ludovic.It's clearly over three minutes now. The highest minute Venus has spent is less than two minutes. She always failed poorly.Of course, Venus doesn't like boring games like chess. If it wasn't that she wanted to win over Grandpa Ludovic, she wouldn't have even learned Chess's basic Lotus smiled elegantly and raised her piece smoothly. "I think Grandpa is making fun of me. I haven't touched the chessboard for a while now." Lotus carefully explained and dropped it, her actions blocking Grandpa Ludovic's piece.Lotus had always been an avid sports player while growing up. Not to mention that her mom had always taught her how to play chess because her mom had grown up playing chess. So her skill was passable.Grandpa Ludovic nodded and laughed heartily in approv
At a famous restaurant in the city. Even though it was a less bustling time in the city, half of the restaurants were filled up, yet it didn't make it appear crowded. The warm light bulb, the flowery ocean background, and the soft sound of a symphony that pervaded the restaurant gave it a warm and romantic ambiance. Havelin's table was positioned next to the balcony, giving them a beautiful view of the calm ocean. May lowered her cutlery and tucked a strand of stray hair behind her ears, giving her an adorable and lovely image that could make any man swoon. "Young master Havelin, you have been staring at my face for a while now; do I make you feel uncomfortable?" Despite May's words, her voice was tiny and soft, and her lips were puckered in a pout, making her appear more lovely. As if realizing what he had been doing, Havelin straightened his back and shook his head. He waved his hands and picked up his fork calmly. "No, Miss May seems familiar. Sorry if I made you uncomfortable.
Upon seeing Havelin's state, May's lips curved up with joy and happiness. She elegantly made her way toward Havelin and stroked his impeccably handsome face. May slowly bent in front of Havelin and cupped his face. She stroked his face calmly. "Young Master Havelin, is anything wrong? Are you okay?" She asked in a tiny and soft voice that revealed her worries for Havelin. Although Havelin badly wanted to evade May's touch, the effect of the aphrodisiac made him unable to. He only felt relief when May touched him like that. A well of disgust overwhelmed Havelin immediately, understanding something. "What did you do to me?" He fired coldly. May booked the restaurant and arrived earlier than him. It was when Havelin drank the wine that the weird changes began to occur to him. May's eyes shone, and she leaned forward indifferently. "I only tampered with your wine by adding aphrodisiac. Never mind, I'll make you feel heightened pleasure soon." She whispered sensually. Immediately, May o
Havelin's lips parted in a leisurely yawn, and he stretched his flexible body.Suddenly, his brows furrowed and his forehead wrinkled. This bed is different from his bed!With such thoughts, Havelin's eyes flew wide open, and his eyes darted about to take in the view of the room. Soon, Havelin noticed one thing. The room was different from his room, which means that he didn't end up in his mansion the day before. Where was he?Havelin sat up and tried to recall what ensued, and soon it clicked. Havelin went on a date with May, who ended up drugging him with aphrodisiacs for a reason he didn't know.Havelin tried to call for Darvish to save him, but that person didn't appear until May started the car and drove out of the restaurant.Thinking like this, Havelin's lips parted in horror, and his heart skipped a beat. His hands wrapped around his body.Does that mean Havelin carelessly fell into May's scheme?Havelin's eyes narrowed, and he felt a headache creeping in. Except that May wa
