Lucien's gaze was deep as he stared at the woman, he pressed his lips together and gaped his mouth as he spoke, “I know… I know very well that I don’t have the right to get jealous because we are not a thing but I couldn’t help it. When I saw you being near a man, my cousin is no exception, I felt some raging anger in my system that wanted to come out.” His voice was deep and Jingfei could feel his seriousness which is not new to her. The man was always serious but this time is different.
Jingfei sighed as she had felt this dilemma was too much for her to handle, “Look Monsieur Alarie, I think you just miss your soon-to-be-wife. Why don’t you just go and give Mademoiselle Oceane a call. I don’t have time for your drama or what-so-ever you call this thing you're doing right now. And if you don’t plan on leaving me alone, I’d better exc
Later that evening, at the separate building where they had their luncheon last time, Jingfei sat along with Alexandria and here friends at the same table as they waited for their dinner to be served.While enjoying their time swimming, they have received a notice that the dinner will be a formal event in order to celebrate the success of their photoshoot. Jingfei was hesitant at first when she got invited as well since she was a nobody to the company and she was only there because of Alexandria. “Are you sure I’m allowed to be here? This was supposed to be a party for you and your team.” She whispered to Alexandria who just patted her on the shoulder, “Don’t worry we're just here to eat. After these we'll sneak out and we have prepared a small bonfire near the shore.” The young lady whispered and sneakily smiled at Jingfei.“So, did you enjoy your mini photoshoot with Nickel?” Flame asked and Jingfei nodded, &ldquo
A day has passed since Jingfei got home from the resort. The sight of the busy and noisy restaurant felt so nostalgic to her even though she was gone for just five days which is not new to her since she would also take a longer day off from work.Jingfei, who was sitting at the chair near the cashier counter, glanced at Alexander through the glass window of the door. The man had a serious look on his face as he dressed the order of a customer. “Did you two have a fight?” Betty whispered and caught Jingfei’s attention, “Is it too obvious?” The woman whispered back and Betty nodded her head, “Too obvious if you ask me. When you walked through the door early this morning, I could sense that something was going on between the two of you.”Jingfei pursed her lips together and clicked her tongue as she heaved a sigh. It was h
When Jingfei was out of sight, Alexandria along with her friends started taking some dishes and placing them on their plates. “I think you’ve ordered too much serving, Elite.” Flame muttered as she feast on the prawn she was holding.“Don’t worry about that! I could take that home. And besides I know you all wanted to eat here so take this chance to fill your stomach because this is a once in a lifetime free food from my brother.” Alexandria plainly uttered as she started munching the crunchy calamari. Flame just shrugged her shoulders and continued enjoying her food.The other five were already enjoying each dish that was served on the table. Florine, who is very particular with her diet, broke her diet principle. “Just this once, I’ll let myself enjoy it.” She mumbled.
Later that evening, Hugo heard the sound of two people conversing near his door.“We should have bought some hot soup at my favorite restaurant for Hugo. They have a soup there that could relieve colds.” Hugo heard a mellow and sweet voice, it belonged to the woman who could make his heart beat.“I bought some ingredients. We can just cook for him.” Alexander raised the paper bag he was holding. “Oh! Is that so then let me ring the doorbell.” Jingfei reached her finger and before it could contact the small button, the door suddenly opened and a young man with his messy hair and sweaty appearance, popped out behind the door. Hugo was wearing a thick sweat shirt and pants. On his right hand was a thick blue blanket.“Go..ood Evening!” He greeted the two
After the call ended, Jingfei went to get Kuro’s food and water. As she was scooping the cat food, she took a glance at the tom cat, who was sitting on the long sofa, giving himself a bath. “Right, I should go take him to the vet tomorrow.” Jingfei mumbled and soon as she was done with Kuro’s food, she then went closer to the sink and filled the container with water.“Baby, dinner!” Jingfei shouted as she walked slowly towards the corner of her hallway and carefully placed the two containers down. She then stood up and took a glance at Kuro who was still sitting on the sofa. Jingfei sighed as she went closer to the tomcat and took him from the sofa.“You’re not hungry?” She asked as they went back to where she placed his containers. Once Jingfei had placed Kuro down, the tomcat began eating his f
The sun was already beaming brightly through the glass window on Jingfei’s room when Alexander woke up from his deep slumber. He spared a glance at the queen size bed beside him and the figure of the woman who was using the bed was already gone, the beddings and pillows were already well kept.Alexander stretched his arms and hips before he stood up and tidied up the beddings and mattress on the floor. He made sure that the blanket he used was folded neatly and placed it on top of Jingfei’s bed along with the two huge pillows.He then walked towards the wall and just like what Jingfei did last night, Alexander pressed the button and the hidden compartment appeared. Alexander went back to carry the mattress and slid it back to where it was placed along with the thick beddings and pillows.After he c
As Lucien was having his coffee as he sits on the long sofa in his living room, with an overlooking view of his garden.The man’s phone suddenly rang, he quickly picked it up and answered the call, “What?” He uttered without even taking a glimpse on who the caller was.“Is that how you speak to your mother?” The firm and stern tone of his mother’s voice echoed on the man’s ear.“I’m sorry, Mother. I thought that you were my secretary.” Lucien apologies and sips from the cup.“Where are you right now?” Madame Alarie asked.“I’m at t
It’s already at the end of the month and it’s been three days have passed since Jingfei brought Kuro to his vet and had the chance to visit Alexandria and Nickel on the building that Lucien owns, and it's been also three days since the man got reprimanded by his father to stop courting Jingfei.Currently, Jingfei was sitting on the chair near the counter of the restaurant as she stared at the magazine where Alexander’s interview was printed.The honking noise of the cars on the highway, the noise that came from the waiters and waitresses as they ran back and forth as they clean and seat up the tables, and chairs didn’t bother Jingfei at all as she just focused on reading evy letters and words on Alexander’s answer on the interviewer’s questions.“You know that th
