Zayn was not upset by Nathan’s mockery, of course. He was used to being insulted and misunderstood by others. “Nathan, it seems that you’ve come prepared and you’ve already looked into me in detail. I believe that Fifi’s presence in William’s villa was according to your plan too, was it not? You appeared right when Fifi was in need of rescue and swooped in to save her like a guardian angel. Naturally, she would shed tears of gratitude and promise to give herself to you after that. I admit, it was a good plan.”Upon hearing that, Faye’s expression immediately changed ever so slightly. She was a no fool, so she immediately saw the meaning behind Zayn’s words. In truth, Nathan had already known that she would be in a dangerous situation at William’s place and would need someone to save her. Thus, he bided his time and only showed up at the crucial moment so she would be grateful to him. Most importantly, she would want to repay him for such a feat!Nathan’s pupils constricted instantl
Faye was so astounded that she could not react to the situation soon enough. On the other hand, Nathan was even more dumbfounded. After he opened his eyes, he covered his cheek with his hand and looked at Faye incredulously. “Fifi, you’ve...actually done it.”Faye glared at him ferociously and let out two coughs in embarrassment.After following Faye’s line of sight, Nathan realized that Zayn was the one who had delivered the slap!Instantly, the raging anger in his chest surged, and he almost exploded in rage. That deadbeat husband of Faye’s actually had the audacity to seize the opportunity to hit him! Zayn simply did not deserve to be forgiven! Nathan was a specially privileged person, so there had never been a time that he had to endure an injustice like this. “It was you, Zayn?” He could no longer remain calm anymore. He glared at Zayn with hostility as his fists were clenched tightly. He wished that he could charge forward and fight Zayn at once. Zayn could not possibl
“Zayn, you must be sick in the head, huh?!” Faye scolded angrily as soon as they got into the car. Moreover, she even pinched the flesh on his arm strenuously in her fury.Faye rejected Nathan’s invitation to have a coffee together and followed Zayn home. Zayn clenched his teeth in pain from the pinch, but he felt joy in his heart. This was an indication that Faye had an intimate relationship with him. One should know that Faye would never initiate physical contact like this even if she had been angry at him in the past. Now that she was taking out her anger on him, it signified that she had accepted him subconsciously, right?“No. I went for a health screening last month, didn’t I? I’m in good health,” Zayn said in all apparent seriousness as he refrained himself from laughing. Faye was even more furious, so she pinched him once again and scolded, “Stop acting like an idiot! We’re not talking about that.”“What are we talking about then?” Zayn blinked innocently. He found that
Faye paused for a moment before she said in all apparent seriousness, “Zayn, don’t blame me for not reminding you that Nathan is a person who fanatically obsesses over every trifle matter. After the slap you gave him today, he will never leave the matter at that for sure. It’s best you apologize to him and beg for his forgiveness, or else, you won’t be able to withstand his approach!”Zayn felt contempt from the bottom of his heart. Why would he fear Nathan’s revenge with his current capability and status? If he did not seek trouble with Nathan, the latter should be secretly smiling in relief. However, he was still rather touched by Faye’s advice in his heart. Faye’s action signified that she cared about him. “Hmm, I shall give you a call at once when he comes looking for trouble with me,” Zayn said smilingly. Faye nodded and felt that Zayn’s behavior, albeit weak, was useful anyhow. At the thought of the 15-million-dollar incident earlier, Faye furrowed her brows once again.
Speaking of which, it had been a few days since he last visited Violet Vision. It was good that Violet Vision was developing rapidly and steadily now with all sorts of recruitment going on apart from its continuously rising market value. Zayn had already set the plans in the right direction, so he would only need to hand things over to his subordinates to execute. Essentially, it would not be a big issue. He encountered an acquaintance as soon as he arrived in Violet Vision. It was no other than Cristian who was striking up a conversation with a beautiful woman. It was sheer coincidence that this beautiful woman was Zayn’s acquaintance too. She was Yvonne. After Faye’s school gathering the other night, Cristian and his agent had gone over to sign a contract with Violet Vision in a rush early the next morning. They signed a five-year contract right away which could be considered a relatively long bond. Moreover, the contents of the contract benefited Violet Vision more. Cristian w
Then, he watched Yvonne walk over and wrap her arms around the arm of Violet Vision’s chairman intimately. He felt his knees buckle in fear while he shuddered from the shock upon witnessing how sweet they were behaving. He was doomed. Yvonne was the chairman’s woman!He had been flirting with the chairman’s woman recklessly earlier…At the thought of this, he was about to have a blackout and even felt like dying. Zayn’s arm was hugged by Yvonne so tightly that it made him feel especially uneasy. “Hey, what are you doing? Let go of me!”Yvonne was really delighted to see Zayn because it had already been many days since she last saw him. During this period of time, she missed him so dearly that she lost her appetite to eat. She was certain that she seemed to have fallen for Zayn. She would dream of him almost every night and there were two to three occasions that she discovered she had done something embarrassing after she woke up. Even though she had been successfully hired by th
Zayn was horrified that Yvonne was so capable of pretending to be so pettishly charming. It would be great if his wife, Faye, acted like that around him. However, he knew that such a dream could only live on in his mind. It was impossible for Faye to charm him in such a way knowing her personality. “Cough, cough!” Zayn immediately let out two coughs and said in all apparent seriousness, “Yvonne, please watch your behavior and your choice of words. I’m your best friend’s husband, so please stop having improper desires for me!”Zayn was very stern. Yvonne was stunned for a moment. Soon afterwards, she chuckled aloud. “I didn’t know that you were so good at pretending to be proper.”“I’m not joking with you! I’m ordering you to let go of me right now!” said Zayn with a cold expression. It was fortunate that it was currently working hours now, so there were not many people on the first floor. Otherwise, his image as the chairman of Violet Vision would be destroyed by Yvonne. Re
He hastily said, “Yes, yes, yes, you’re right, sir. I’ll immediately sign up for a gym membership and control my eating habits.”Zayn nodded before he began screening through the documents that Sean gave him. More than ten minutes later, he nodded satisfactorily and said, “Not bad. All of you did very well and Violet Vision is growing steadily.”Sean cracked a smile right there and then. He stood up at once and said, “It’s all because of your guidance, sir. We’re only executing your orders.”Zayn did not stop Sean’s suck-up behavior because it felt great to be flattered by someone regardless of the circumstances. Zayn said straightforwardly, “Oh, right, I have something that I need to trouble you for.”Poor Sean had just taken a seat when he heard Zayn’s statement. He stood up swiftly as if he was electrocuted. “Please go ahead, sir!”“Sean, there’s no need to be so nervous. You act like I’m going to gobble you up. Take a seat. Don’t be so easily startled,” Zayn chided in annoya
