"WHERE did you go, honey?" Nicole asked her son worriedly while hugging him tight."I'm sorry for making you worry so much, Mommy." He hugged his mother back. He had always felt that his mother was afraid of something and did not want to lose sight of him, especially when they were in a public place."Promise me you won't do it again. You're not familiar with this place, so you should ask Mommy first if you're going or doing anything."His mother's tone and face were so serious, thus he did not say anything. He raised his right hand and nodded as a promise to her. But his other hand was hidden behind his back and was doing a cross finger. He smiled at his mother to erase any doubt in her mind. Even when he was young, he could quickly remember everything in a place. He is not the type of child who will cry and be scared when lost in a crowded place.Smiling, she led his son back to the baggage area and their bag was already there. When they left the airport, Kanor was there waiting for

"Honey, are you okay? I heard your car broke down earlier." Danica asked the young man worriedly as she entered his office.Steven is used to Danica's endearment. But he seemed to suddenly feel awkward with it now."I called you earlier but you didn't answer, so I was even more worried. Then I called Tony and he told me what happened." She explained to the young man. She knew he didn’t want her to know his every move, especially when he was outside."I wss in the middle of a meeting when you called." His response to Danica was cold.Danica sighed. When the tone of the young man's voice was like that, she knew he didn't want to talk anymore."I called our daughter and she was looking for you." She changes the subject to regain the young man's attention.Steven's facial expression softened slightly, remembering his princess. "I will call her."Danica couldn't do anything when Steven gave her a look of dismissal. He does not want others to see how he can be a father to his child. A bitte

Nicole looked around the office that's now hers. It was small compared to Steven’s office, but she liked it. There is a bathroom inside and a sofa on the side that is just the right length for guests."If there's something you want to change in your office, just say so." Steven said to the woman. He couldn't take his eyes off her while she was looking elsewhere.Nicole faced Steven with a wide smile on her seductive lips. "I like it!"Steven quickly averted his gaze from the woman's face. The words she said felt different to him. It seemed to echo in his mind as he recalled a memory of that night at the hotel."Uhm, I like it, please continue…" a woman pleaded in Steven's memory."Are you sick?" Nicole asked the young man worriedly when she noticed that his expression suddenly changed.He couldn't avoid her from touching his forehead. Steven felt the surroundings suddenly heat up because of a memory coming back to his mind.Danica clenched her fists when she saw from the open door wha

Steven had already recognized Nicole from afar, even though it was only her back. She was talking to a man who was an acquaintance of his."Mr. Scout! Nice to see you again and welcome back here!" Joseph greeted the young man with pleasure.Steven's face was serious while his eyes were on Joseph's hand pressed against Nicole's back.Nicole cleared her throat to get their attention. "Do you know each other?""Yes, of course! Mr. Scout is one of our VIP guests here." Joseph answered proudly."Ahm, well! He's the one I was saying I'd be meeting with." A small smile flashed on her lips and was unable to meet Steven's gaze. She was afraid that it might show through her eyes that what she was doing was a part of her script. "Oh, I didn't know!" Joseph quickly removed his hand from the girl's back and called a waiter.Steven formally thanked Joseph and he pulled a chair for Nicole."Please, enjoy the meal!" smiling, Joseph turned away and left the two."How did you meet Mr. Joseph?"Nicole

"DARN!" Nicole groaned when the wood she had intentionally knocked down hit her head hard. Her plan earlier was to only create noise to grab Steven's attention. She would have pretended to be hurt, but her karma seemed to hate her and the wood retaliated. She took a wrong step so she could not avoid the wood that was leaning against the wall."Fuck!" Josh's eyes widened and he quickly ran to where Nicole was.But Steven was faster and closer to her, thus he was the one to catch her when she lost her balance."Tss! Why does the speed of karma return to me quickly instead of Danica?" complaint of a part of Nicole's mind as she rubbed her forehead with both palms.Nicole felt her surroundings circling around her and even the wall she was leaning against was moving as well. Her eyes remained closed, she was busy debating with herself."Sir, I'll carry her instead." Josh said to Steven. He was about to take Nicole from him, but Steven glared at him."Pay attention to your staff instead bec
