Lotus stepped into the mansion limping. For a man like Zaire, even his bedside stamina will be outstanding and overwhelming. The thought of Lotus getting to enjoy such a man instead of the gigolo Aster arranged made her chin jutted and her veins throb.

Upon hearing Aster’s words, Riley’s hand balled into a fist. She had meticulously planned her way to the top. She won’t give a chance for a mistake to ruin all the hard work she has been putting in for years. No. She can’t

Despite the multiple thoughts, Riley’s voice was calm, and none of the emotions surfaced on her face. “Mom will think of a remedy. Don’t take any action for now, okay? All you have to do is stay beautiful and work hard. Leave the rest to mom, okay?” She conveyed one after the other as if to make herself clear.

She extended her hand and cupped Aster’s cheeks. Her hand kept running through Aster’s hair with pride. Aster is her pride, and she will never give a chance for anyone or anything to ruin it.

    “Lotus has always been so considerate. Dylan is indeed blind to have chosen a white lotus over Lotus.” Lane Lynch, Dylan’s mother, seethed and coldly threw the box of expensive tea Aubree got her onto the table. Her eyes didn't fall on Aubree even once. It was as if taking a glance at Aubee would irritate her eyes.Upon hearing Lane’s words, Aubree’s shoulder and body trembled. Her eyes reddened, but she bit her lower lip tightly as if she didn’t want the tears to spill past her lips.Ellie, Dylan’s younger sister, eyed the luxury bag Aubree got for her in disdain. She flicked her hair and eyed Aubree from head to toe with contempt bare in her eyes. “I mean, what did Elder Brother see in this woman? Huff! She's so annoying, sly, and very shameless!” Ellie turned up her nose and chided Aubre in disdain. If it were someone else that such a thing happened to, they would be too embarrassed to show their face to the world.However, Aubree was different. She seemed unaffected, and she didn

    Lotus’ eyes reddened, her body trembled, her hand balled into a fist, and sad tears lingered in her eyes. For three days now, Lotus has been locked in the guest room under Zaire’s order. She wasn’t even allowed to take a step out, and whenever Ava stepped in to serve the food, regardless of what question Lotus asked, Ava wouldn’t say a word and would bow apologetically instead. All Lotus’ attempts to leave or escape from the guest room ended in naught. She yelled, she cried, she pleaded, and she threatened, but all of them went for nothing. The bodyguards didn’t budge.Tears pooled in Lotus’ eyes, and a shaky smile appeared on her face. Even her phone turned useless, and her attempt to call people failed. Zaire had interjected her network, which means that Lotus could only scroll through posts; Lotus couldn’t send a message, comment, upload a post, or call either. And since then, Lotus has failed to catch sight of Zaire again.The sudden alert of a notification made Lotus’s phone

He strode into the mansion in a fast stride, a cold aura exuding from him.In the living room sat two impeccably handsome men in their early twenties with otherworldly bearings. There is a noble, cold, and elegant aura exuding from the two, revealing that they are from the upper class.“Hey, so shocking!” A playful masculine voice immediately resounded in the mansion as soon as Zaire stepped into the living room. Quist has the impeccable, typical handsome face of a playboy. He has black eyes, a long and pointed nose, thin lips, a chiseled jawline, and a sharp figure. He’s currently in a dark blue suit. Quist clapped his hands together and beamed indifferently at the dark-faced Zaire. “You don’t expect we’ll be here, do you?” He playfully threwQuist stood up abruptly from the sofa and grabbed his chest with a feigned sad expression. “Hey, young master Zaire, how can you do this?

    “Here.” Quist extended his hand, which held a white handkerchief, toward Lotus. Currently, Quist sat on a sofa in the Lotus room, while Lotus sat opposite Quist. He took a glance at the guest room, and an enigmatic glint flickered through his eyes. Zaire already got the woman; what went wrong in a week?Lotus bit her lower lips and timidly collected the handkerchief from Quist before using it to wipe the tears away from her face. She lowered her head and appreciated Quist, “Thank you.” Although Lotus tried to make her voice calm, her voice ended up emitting in a hoarse and quavering tone.Quist arched his brows and cocked his head; his eyes landed on Lotus curiously and meaningfully. “Did you offend Zaire?” he queried.Upon hearing Quist’s question, Lotus shook her head seriously. She stared at Quist seriously and grabbed her fingers, fidgeting. “I. I didn't. Venus schemed against me, but he wouldn't listen even when I explained the truth to him…”Upon hearing this, Quist arched his

    Lotus stared into the distance with glazed eyes, different thoughts coursing through her mind. Her body became tense, and she bit her lower lip with petrification. Does Lotus really have no choice but to do what Quist said? Should she really try to seduce Zaire? The multiple thoughts that surged in Lotus's mind almost drove her crazy. A flicker of determination suddenly lit up in Lotus’ eyes. Lotus clenched her fist and stood up abruptly. As long as there’s still a chance to help her get released from being a hostage, no matter how scary it seems, she’ll do it. After all, nothing is more scary than having to face Zaire’s wrath. But what if she failed? Should she try it? Seducing him?In the next second, the determination in Lotus’s eyes dissipated immediately.

    Zaire lowered his head and placed a soft kiss on Lotus’s neck. He wrapped his hand around Lotus’s thin waist authoritatively and gently nuzzled her smooth neck. “Don’t wear little and walk barefoot next time.” Zaire susurrated next to her ear. As soon as he completed his statement, he raised his head and gave Lotus a stern gaze.Lotus’ heart skipped a beat. Immediately, she understood that his grim expression was due to finding her walking barefoot and wearing little. She pursed her lips slightly. Isn’t it because she wanted to seduce him? Nevertheless, she nodded her head in response and looked down at her fingers, finding the atmosphere extremely stifling while staying in Zaire’s presence. Zaire extended his hand to reveal well-carved, thin, and long, exquisite fingers. He lifted Lotus’s chin with his index finger and made her stare into his obsidian black eyes. He gave her a meaningful glance. Although Zaire didn’t say a word, Lotus understood that his gaze implied that she shou

    In a monotone, low-key luxury bedroom, the rays of sunlight spilled past the curtains and landed on Lotus’s dainty and exquisite face. Lotus’s face wrinkled, her brows furrowed, and her lips pursed in a thin line in displeasure due to the disturbance. Immediately, she stretched her hand and attempted to turn to the other side, but before she could, a painful hiss spilled past her lips. Lotus’s eyes flew open, and her lips parted in a yawn. Her eyes fell on the wall clock, only to discover that it was past 11:00 a.m. Lotus's eyes widened; she didn’t expect to have slept that deeply!Immediately, she attempted to sit up and stretch her body, but before she could, she sucked in a cold breath and groaned softly. “Ahhhh!”Lotus’s face reddened; she smacked her lips together, and she secretly cursed at Zaire while thinking that he was too much. Regardless of how much Lotus pleaded for Zaire to let her go the night before, Zaire kept telling her that there was only one round left, yet Za

How can he not be happy?Zaire aloofly strode out of the private room at a fast pace.The stunned assistant, Onyx, immediately stood up and followed Zaire, still wondering what happened. “Zaire. Zaire.” Venus suddenly called behind Zaire in a sweet voice, her heels clinking softly against the floor. Venus was dressed in a yellow dress that fell above her knees, exposing her pale and beautiful thighs. Her long, wavy hair fell to her back, giving her a pure and innocent goddess-type look. Upon hearing Venus' call, Zaire's expression turned cold, and his brows furrowed in gloom.Immediately, Venus wrapped her hands ar

    “Boss,” Wolf called and bowed respectfully the instant he picked up Zaire’s call. Zaire leaned back, his face blank and his eyes glazed. “Capture Venus; she’s making her escape out of the country,” Zaire ordered coldly, his head fixated on the keyboard screen.

Although Zaire only let out a sound, it was enough for Wolf to know the implicit meaning behind Zaire’s words. He could only bite down his words and replied carefully, "Yes, boss.” As soon as Zaire cut off the call, Wolf lowered the phone from his ear.
