Artemis' POV"You look stunning," Mr. Juan Cloud said to me with a smile. I only smiled slightly before walking with him. We are now going to Ms.'s family party. Yu.Zelo and Hades went with Ms. Yu, they were already there. Zelo was arguing with me earlier. He wants me to go with them. If our child didn't call him, he wouldn't follow them at all. He's forcing what he wants.These past few days we fought like cats and dogs. He's so annoying. I try to avoid talking to him, but he's always found something we would fight about.After a while, Mr. Juan Cloud and I rode in his car. He has a bearable presence and he is not that hard to talk with.He also talked about the reason why he chose me as his date tonight. He is forced to marry one of their business partners but as he doesn't want to, he wants to bring a date to prove his points to his parents."Thank you for helping me with this one. I really owe y
Artemis' POV"Who's that girl, Juan Cloud? Do you really intend to embarrass us here?” Mr.Juan Cloud's Mommy asked hostilely when we got close to their table. He pouted before introducing me to his parents but when his eyes landed on the woman with elegant movements, he looked at her with raised eyebrows but the woman remained silent. It looks like she's the girl his parents want for him.If I were his parent too I would probably want her for my son. She's pretty and looks like she was really composed the whole time. She looks like a doll with her long hair, fair complexion, red lips, and cat-like eyes. I wonder why Mr. Juan Cloud wouldn't want to marry her.“Good evening.” She was the first to greet me and smiled slightly. She looks so nice. I whispered to Mr. Juan Cloud.“You don't like her? You have no taste if you aren't interested in her." I laughed a little when I whispered to Mr. Juan Cloud. Mr. Juan Cloud just pouted th
Artemis' POVZelo returned to the party first because they were looking for him. While I spent more time in a cubicle just to be sure that no one would notice.I was about to leave when I heard a familiar name."Viper, I told you! She's familiar. I can't be wrong! She was with the Governor at the club back then." I heard a voice entering the comfort room. My lips immediately parted and I immediately hid in the cubicle because I could hear her trying to see if anyone was inside."Yes, let's meet after this party, please. I would like to have a sexy time with you too. Yes, I'm sure that she's that girl. She's so familiar I told you. Her hair was only blonde before but her face is still the same," she said. I was sure it was referring to me.After flirting with the other person, she immediately decided to leave."Who's the girl who left the comfort room, Leo?" I asked my brother from the other line.
Artemis' POV“I'll be moving now. Please bring Hades home,” I whispered on the other line for Zelo. I know that he can hear my brother and me talking.I took one more look at their place to look at my son. No one knows what I'm doing while Zelo glares at me. I immediately averted my gaze before I went out. I just tore off the gown I was wearing when I was finally out of the venue and started walking up to the hotel. My brother already sent me the blueprint of the whole place."Be careful, Artemis," Ares reminded me as I started to climb the dark part of the hotel. Little by little, my lips parted when I saw that there was a secret passage here. I was about to enter the door when I heard footsteps and a voice."Yes, I'm almost there, Babe. Of course, we will." Ares only hacked up to the bottom, so I couldn't even go to the CCTV parts of the upstairs rooms. This is also the reason why he doesn't want me to continue what I'm plann
Artemis' POVI immediately jumped to the next floor. When I left the veranda of the vice president's room, there were still people chasing me, but they seemed to have gradually stopped because we were not the only people outside. It seems that they really planned to take me to that hotel room because it is soundproof. It's just that they didn't expect my escape.I was out of breath when I finally got out of there. A car approached me. I immediately saw Macoy who just shook his head at me."Fuck! You are rushing again, you are not bulletproof you know," Macoy said as he let me inside. I just leaned against the car while panting. It seems that he is calling Junio as well.“You were hit!” Macoy shouted loudly so Ares immediately cursed from the other line. I also turned off my mic because I'm pretty sure he'll just curse me out and preach for how many hours. Zelo might hear it as well.I just closed my eyes at the
Artemis' POVI told Zelo everything that happened. It looks like he doesn't want to listen to me but he really has no choice but to hear me.He didn't want to talk about the plan yet but I insisted. I'm not even sure if Honey knows that I'm a member of the president's staff, but I'm sure they know now. They can't make a move while I'm still attached to Zelo and the same goes for us who can't just do whatever we want, especially since people's eyes are on two of them. The media is certainly watching too."For now, you need to rest... We'll talk about this again after you are already fine," he said to me so I immediately frowned. Even he is still angry to this day. His eyes are still sharp when looking at me. He looks really dangerous whenever I look at him.Before I could speak, his secretary called him. He didn't attend a few meetings because of me and for sure with his whole day watching over me, his responsibility increased e
Artemis' POVHe stopped because of that. I used that opportunity to remove his hand from me but before I could run again he grabbed my wrist."I need to go, Zelo! Can you hear me?! I fucking need to fucking find my daughter!” I shouted loudly. I didn't care if he got to know more about Athena. What is important is my daughter's safety.I couldn't stop the tears from falling from my eyes when I looked at him in the eyes."Please just let me go, Zelo... I need to find my daughter... I can't forgive myself if something bad happens to Athena..." I said, unable to hold back my sobs and my knees gradually softened as his hand didn't release his grip on me.I also know that it is unlikely that I will be able to get out of here now if I do not ask for his help."Please... Just this one, Zelo... I can't afford to lose my daughter. I want to see Athena…” I said, unable to stop crying. I was still holding on to
Artemis' POVI bit my lip hard when I realized that I had been so occupied with Athena that I didn't realize that there were some people here and also couldn't stop biting my lip when I realized that Zelo was just staring at Athena now."Why do you have bandages, Mama? Are you being hurt here? And why are you on your knees while crying? Do you want to go home? Who doesn't want that?" she asked as her eyes gradually narrowed as she turned around to look at Zelo. I immediately cleared my throat before I shook my head at my daughter."It's not like that, Baby... Mama just got hurt on her own," I said, turning her to face me because I could see her sharp eyes looking at her father.I looked again at Hades who was just looking at the two of us. He looks like he was lost. I bit my lip hard as I didn't know what to do now. Athena faced me again before she stared at me."Should we go home now, Mama? Please say yes... If t
