It was clear that if he was the center of attention, Lucius was the most shining man here, the most potential man to be made a husband. All the girls were envious of Riley, especially Lucius holding her hand and talking with a smile.Another businessman came up to them, he looked at Riley and glanced at Lucius curiously. Just in that way alone, he had asked Lucius for an explanation."She is Riley, the woman who rejected me," Lucius spoke casually, he didn't mind at all with the reactions of everyone who heard them in utter disbelief.They looked Riley up and down again and again. After all, what advantage did this woman have that made her reject Lucius? Riley pinched Lucius, she wanted to be able to escape from here, but she couldn't. Come on. Riley wanted to calm down and thought this was a secret between them. The women who heard that were displeased and grew even more displeased with Riley.Riley could see their lips pointed forward and Riley suddenly smiled.“Lucius loves to joke
In a fast-moving car, the tension is still so thick. Riley couldn't move freely, she was afraid of making Lucius feel worse."Stop."Suddenly Lucius asked the driver to stop. They stopped near a river with beautiful lights. Lucius immediately got out of the car and exhaled.Riley caught up to Lucius, who was touching his head while looking down.When he realized Riley was beside him, Lucius looked the other way. “You told me to stop because you still love him? You don't want him to get hurt?"Don't know what Lucius was thinking, everything seemed to collide so much that it was hard for him to think clearly. Riley held his hand, the woman's hand felt cold and immediately worried Lucius."I'm not worried about him. I'm worried about you, Lucius. You are Lucius, a great man who owns a great business. Why do you have to make a bad name for yourself just because of a trash guy like him?”Riley said honestly, that sincere look in her eyes making Lucius gasp. He hugged Riley as he rubbed Ril
He really likes to be the center of attention, even when he's not doing anything, he has become the center of awareness itself.He had just finished a meeting with a businessman from another country, he was now in a restaurant in this hotel. The large tall buildings made him wholly uneasy.“Mr. Lucius, here is today's report on the crash in the Anderson family stock. Their new business has also experienced heavy inflation.”Abriel provides a report that is in a tab.“Some of my enemies are trying to get close to him, right?”Lucius stared at Abriel, he knew very well that it was an opportunity for others who hated him. Abriel nodded his head, he had done an excellent report. Several names tried to approach Mike in the report that Lucius had not read.“Send spies there, trying to destroy it from the inside would be so much fun.” Lucius smiled, he had shown his fearsome fangs and Abriel knew what Lucius wanted would come true.**The Carson family, currently the head of the family, is s
His arrival at Riley's office made her happy, he stopped and surprised Riley. The large bouquet of flowers in his hand drew all gazes toward him.Just when she wanted to get out of her room and immediately go home with a sore body, she took a bouquet of flowers given by Lucius."I just stopped by here for a moment.""Stop by?" Riley still didn't quite understand what Lucius was saying."Are you disappointed that I wasn't with you long?" Lucius saw the movement of Riley's hand, who had taken the bouquet. He smiled a little.“No, just a little surprised you stopped by here. Is there something you want to tell me, Lucius?" Riley looked at the bouquet of flowers in her hands, the red color of the roses and their fragrance made it hard to avert her eyes."Just giving you flowers and good night wishes to a beautiful woman."They walked, no one else wanted to interrupt their time together. The two of them got into the elevator, which was now going down."Tonight, I'm leaving," Lucius said wi
The busy days made her a little overwhelmed by the existence of Lucius, who for the past two months, had always been trying to get close to her. When she wasn't doing anything, Riley would remember Lucius for a moment.Many extraordinary things happened between them. Riley thought Lucius was very different from what was reported in the mass media. The figure of a person who is arrogant, stubborn, and haughty. Alright, she agreed with Lucius' stubbornness. Over and over again, she refused Lucius' wishes, and the man would not listen to her."You were there long enough, it's almost a week since we didn't meet, right?" Riley asked herself. She tilted her head. Trying to relax her mind for a moment. Her eyes felt dry from staring at the screen before her for too long.Her phone vibrated on the table, she deliberately put it on vibrate mode only. The name written on the screen made her smile faintly.“Wow, you do seem to have a sixth sense, huh? Or could it be that you have a hidden camera
When Riley woke up an hour later, her body was much more relaxed. She gave a small smile when she saw Serra, who was waiting for her with a bright face.“Miss Riley, you woke up yourself without me even waking you up. You sleep very well?” asked Serra and she corrected her sitting position."Yes, a pretty good sleep, even if it's short. I was defeated, taking a short nap isn't bad. Now I think I can take on much of the work that comes my way.”She said because she felt her body lighter. What amazed her the most was that her legs, which had felt so stiff before, weren't even stiff anymore.“You will only do the work that comes in today, I hope you don't overdo it. It's not good for you.”Serra showed her caring attitude towards the figure in front of her. She smiled and then continued to help Riley, who was trying to stand up, she was happy when Riley could walk properly without showing a hint of pain.Riley took a black bag and held it quite tightly.“I'm ready to go to the boutique n
Riley followed the sound she heard until she was in a distant part of this building. It was dark, her footsteps stopped, and Riley looked in front of her a few times with her hands squeezed.She stared at what was in front of her, it was hard to determine precisely what was going on there.“Ugh...”The moaning sound sounded again, Riley's body just moved. She ran past the many large columns in the passage and finally found the figure of a man lying on the ground with blood running down his chest."Sir! Sir! Hang on!” Riley held him, she checked the pulse of the man who felt so weak and she was frantically looking for help. The dress she was wearing was torn and full of red blood.Hazelnut-colored eyes opened quickly, the bright light blinding her for a moment. Riley closed her eyes again, they were watery, not used to the bright light.“Ah... Really... Why do I remember such a stiff incident?” Riley exhaled while keeping her eyes closed. After a few seconds passed, she opened her eyes
Riley looked down at her hands as she walked into her office building. She bought a thick sandwich, even though she had eaten it with food filling her stomach."What do I think?"Riley said that as if rejecting what she was doing right now. But she unwrapped the bread and ate it quickly, the people who saw what Riley was doing could only bow and greet her.The sandwiches she bought during the trip had run out even before she reached her room. Serra had been waiting for her and hot coffee was already on her table."Miss Riley, there is an investor meeting at 10 am."Riley listened to her carefully, Riley opened her files that were on the table, looked at the files that had piled up and she relaxed her body for a while."Is there a problem, Miss Riley?"“There is,” Riley answered offhandedly, surprising Serra. She was looking forward to what Riley would say next.“Oh, I have a bit of trouble sleeping.” Riley immediately explained so the woman in front of her would not have that panicked
Riley, Lucius, and Lurren prepared neatly. All the servants were busy preparing the dinner menu to welcome Adrian's arrival. The food provided used only a few spices because Adrian could not eat too many spicy foods.Lucius reached into his pants pocket, dialing Wilson's phone number to also come to his house. The common thing that Lucius did when Adrian came to visit was to check on his grandfather's health. Even though his grandfather was in good condition, Lucius still paid attention and checked every so often.Wilson, who had now become Lucius' personal physician, immediately left for the Carson family home. It didn't take long; Wilson arrived at the Carson residence in just fifteen minutes.Lucius warmly welcomed Wilson with a hug. Lurren, who knew Wilson's arrival, immediately ran over, teasing Wilson by taking the medical tools in Wilson's pocket."Oh, my God." Wilson shook his head. It was not a new thing that Lurren had done to Wilson. There had been many times when Wilson ha
Riley was running with her breath taken away. Her sweat was pouring down her body. She stopped several times just to wipe off the sweat. She continued to run while waving her hands, calling out to someone she was chasing.A little boy laughed out loud as he looked at Riley. It turned out that Riley was running after his four-year-old son. The boy's name was Lauren. He was mischievous, exploratory, and good at hiding.Riley found him a few minutes ago, but the boy ran at full speed. Riley bent her body while scrambling her waist. "Oh my, Lurren. Come here!"One of the maids also ran behind Riley with a rice bowl filled with vegetable soup with chicken. Riley tapped her forehead so hard that it made a loud sound. "Lurren, eat first!"The maid was so tired that he could no longer run. Riley took the bowl in the maid's hand and continued running after Lurren, who was now getting farther away from her sight. Riley was also tired of chasing after him, but she wasn't satisfied if she hadn't
Lucius hung up the phone after the doctor on the other side said he would be there soon. He quickly put his cell phone on the nightstand, then hurried to change the wet clothes still attached to Riley's body.Deftly, Lucius' hands stripped Riley of her clothes one by one. He took a change of clothes from the closet. Not a dress, but an evening gown because there were no more clothes that Riley could wear. All the clothes they had brought were, of course, honeymoon clothes. Lucius didn't know that it would turn out like this, so he didn't prepare a change of clothes other than the white dress that Riley had bought at the shopping center.Unfortunately, they only bought one dress, while the rest were evening dresses that Riley wanted to wear to spend the last night of the month for them at this resort. Lucius didn't care and quickly changed Riley's clothes; the important thing was that the clothes were not too revealing so that the doctor could examine her, and Riley wouldn't get sicker
Madam Lyla and her husband waved at Riley and Lucius, who had come out of their yard. Lucius and Riley were deliberately walking to enjoy the beauty of the beach. Riley also wanted to always hug and hold hands with Lucius.Riley and Lucius enjoyed their walk in the afternoon while looking at the reddish-orange sky. They hugged each other until the rain poured down on the earth without permission."Ah, no. You can't get caught in the rain." Lucius raised his hands above Riley's head, shielding her from the rain.They walked into a restaurant on the side of the road. Riley's dress was white, making it see-through and exposing some small body parts.Lucius, who realized that immediately hugged Riley's body, causing everyone in the restaurant to stare at them. Riley blushed with embarrassment. "Lucius, everyone is looking at us."Lucius tightened his embrace and covered Riley's exposed body under his clothes. "Don't bother. You must be cold too. I don't want you to feel cold."Riley was f
Riley and Lucius spent their honeymoon happily. They were initially going on honeymoon for only four days, but they spent two weeks because Lucius didn't want to be disturbed by anyone.All the work problems had been solved by Abriel on Lucius' orders. Luckily, the work problems were solved easily because there was no significant work, so Abriel could handle it himself without disturbing Lucius, who was on his honeymoon.The next day, it was time for them to go home because it was the last day of their honeymoon. Lucius took Riley for a short walk to the shopping center to buy clothes. Riley seemed happy to hear it, especially since the shopping center in that area was famous for its excellent quality of clothes.Lucius and Riley walked into a clothing store. Riley was interested in one of the dresses displayed in front of the shop window. The dress was a unique design made by a famous designer in the area, not because of the design either, but because the dress was made of a very com
Lucius drove the vehicle at a moderate speed. The wind was blowing gently on Riley and Lucius' faces. Riley seemed to enjoy their journey and didn't know where Lucius would take her.Riley looked out the window, which was full of tall trees. He had never been to that area before. "Where are we going?"Lucius was silent. He didn't want to tell Riley where they were going because this particular gift was a honeymoon to the beach not far from the Carson family home. It wasn't that he didn't want to take her on a honeymoon to another city, but he was worried about Riley and the child in her womb.More or less, Lucius knew that Riley should be energized, especially when traveling long distances by air or land like this. Hence, Lucius would only take Riley on a honeymoon nearby. Moreover, they had just had a wedding yesterday and a wild and extraordinary long night battle. Of course, it would be very tiring for Riley if they traveled far away.Riley pursed her lips forward. "So, you don't w
As the night wore on, Lucius and Riley's play became hotter and more passionate. Both of them had passed the peak for the third time, but as if they were never satisfied, the game continued wildly. Lucius seemed to forget that his partner was pregnant, and Riley seemed to forget that a baby was in her stomach.Riley was no less wild. She showed another side that Lucius had never seen before. Riley was good at keeping up with Lucius's game, even to the point of looking tireless for a pregnant woman.Riley played on top of Lucius. Her hands rested backward on Lucius' knees to support her body. While her hips moved back and forth, along with the pounding. Occasionally Riley seemed to close her eyes, enjoying the sting in her intimate area down there.Lucius enjoyed Riley's play, but he was impatient and got up. Both stomped and moved, giving each other a rhythm that stung their intimate organs. Both moaned and sighed loudly, along with the flow of desire inside.Unexpectedly, the bed the
As the night wore on, the wedding dance party finally ended. One by one, the invited guests began to leave. The time on the wall clock, deliberately placed in the middle of the garden to make it look like a fairy tale, was already half past eleven at night.Riley had already entered the room. While Lucius still had to escort his business client home to the front yard with small talk. Lucius followed Riley into the room until all the essential guests had left.Riley had removed all the makeup on her face using a makeup remover. The hairdo had also been removed. Riley just came out of the bathroom wearing a white kimono towel. Her body felt refreshed after cleansing herself with warm water and therapeutic scented soap to calm and relax her body.Riley sat in front of the dressing table mirror. She poured the night serum into her palm and rubbed it on her face. Cold, refreshing feeling in the pores of her cheek skin. She was already feeling tired after a long day of wedding festivities,
Norman and Grace, Eva's parents, also attended the ball. They hadn't missed a detail of the wedding since the afternoon. Of course, they were surprised because it differed from the party earlier in the day. Norman looked amazed for a while at how luxurious Riley and Lucius' wedding was.One of the servants came over to them with a tray containing several red beverage glasses. The glasses looked luxurious, with beautiful carvings on each side. Of course, it was costly for a set of glasses. Norman knew that because the small glasses were luxury items displayed in several large stores.Norman picked up one of the glasses and looked at the details to ensure it was indeed the glass he had seen that day. He approached his wife, bowing slightly. "Eva's going to have a fancy wedding like this."Grace only responded with a nod of her head. Norman pursed his lips, arrogantly thinking he could afford to make Eva's wedding even more lavish than this. Who wouldn't be jealous of a wedding like this
