Just like what Levinia said, minutes before the start of the show, CEO Lucien Wright arrived. 

Arvin and Eve rushed to meet the man amid the hushed surprise of every guest. And as the most famous among all famous guests, everyone stands to greet the CEO, though no one could come close to even shaking hands with him. 

"Welcome to Silhouettes Designs summer launch, CEO Wright. We are greatly honored by your presence" Arvin firmly shook hands with Lucien and Eve followed.

"I have some spare time, President Arvin" he casually responded before turning to Eve with a smile.

"Welcome, CEO Wright" Eve smiles despite her nervous nerves. She hasn't met the CEO this close aside from seeing him afar during events she accompanies Arvin. Indeed, the CEO is dangerously handsome. His strong prominent profile is paired with piercing eyes, enough to intimidate with just a stare. His powerful intimidating aura fills the entire place and she bet everyone had felt it. <

She doesn't want to engage but she might indulge."Haven't we clear on that issue, Miss Segovia? I didn't steal your ring and I don't have any plans of stealing anything" she seriously retorted."If you think you had convinced me with your innocent act, think again.

    "Lucy, Alek...can you drop me at my classroom?" sweetly smiling, the six-year-old Lissie links her arms to her brothers.Two arched brows turn to her like she lost her mind. "I thought you doesn't want us near you at school?" Lucy suspiciously asks."What happened, Lissie? Is someone bothering you? Tell me who and I will deal with them" Alek who suddenly becomes serious, sharply mutters."Alek, there you are again. No one is bothering me and no one would dare" she incredulously glares at her brother."Then why do you want us to drop you at your classroom?" Lucy added. His suspicion intensified.

"Yes, baby love. We will meet our new baby later" Lexie whispers and peck a kiss on her youngest's forehead. "I'm still a baby?" Xander softly asks. Insecurity reflects on his face. "Of course, my love. Lucy, Alek, and Xander will always be Mama and papa's babies. We will just have another baby love but we love you all equally" Lexie was surprised. Never did Xander show insecurity or jealousy towards their new baby since they announce her pregnancy. "Xander, buddy. Nothing will change despite having our new baby. We love the four of you so much, you three and the baby inside mama's tummy" Lucien leans toward his son to assure

    After the conference at the principal's office, all parties departed with an amicable settlement. Alek was somehow pacified by the assurance from the parents of the three boys. But not before he made another warning."You three must tell everyone around here that I won't be tolerant of any provocation. You all heed my warning or I will deal with all of you myself" Alek's last words to the boys who fearfully nod at him. He even coldly glares at them before turning away to join their parents who are still in conversation with the other parents and the principal."Lucy and Alek beat those boys?" Lucien asks the head security of his sons after he stayed outside to give his instructions. The boys were already with their mother inside the vehicle."Yes, boss. The food tray did the trick. The school might reconsider using those food trays and might regard them as deadly for the children" Allen proudly and amusingly relayed to Lucien. Lucien stares at his man, trying to imagine what his s
