The sound of the apartment door opening got Emma's attention, and immediately, she left her books on the table, walked out of the living room, and met Zane in the hallway.“Hey,” She said softly, “You're back early. How was your first day of work?”Smiling weakly at her, Zane pulled his coat off his shoulder as he said, “I got off work early to pick you up from school, so we can have lunch together, but then a reckless driver almost ran into Yoko and me-”“Oh, my... are you alright?” Emma asked worriedly, placing her hand on Zane's cheek.“Yeah. We were able to jump out of the vehicle's way.” “Thank God,” Taking Zane's coat from his hand, she held onto it as she said, “Do you want me to make something for you to eat?”The tender look of concern in her eyes Made Zane smile softly and then grabbed her by her waist, resting his chin on her shoulder, inhaling deeply, “When I saw my life flash before my eyes, you were the part of it that I knew I was going to miss the most if something

The hall grew quiet, and Zane could feel everyone's eyes on him like he was the main course of tonight, but his mind was disturbed by what Mr. Briggs said, and his only thought was, ‘What is the truth?’“Zane, we don’t have to play this stupid game with Cyrus. I can tell that something is bothering you, so can we please just go home?” Emma pleaded in a whisper, holding onto his arm, afraid for her husband’s reputation to get ruin. “Please, Zane.”The desperation in her voice made Zane snap out of his feelings and looked into her eyes, seeing the fear and worry that filled them. Since he hated seeing her like this, the urge to comfort her became too much for Zane to handle, and he gave her a small smile, saying, “Okay... Let’s leave.”“Mr. Grimes, are you not going to say something, or did you just accept my invitation for you and your wife to drink free wine and feel important without you thinking about donating?” Cyrus taunted him again.Taking one last look at the auctioneer, Zane t

The noise only grew louder from there on, but Zane trusted Yoko's information and when he met Cyrus' eyes, he said, “Well, Mr. Agreste, I guess, we both were wrong about each other. Since the jewel is the real thing, I will have your money ready to wire tomorrow and will be waiting to meet you with a jewel specialist then.”“Mr. Grimes, even though you are a newbie in the business circle, you are really a wise young man. I must say, I am impressed by your skills and knowledge. In fact, I admire what kind of business acumen you possess and have.” Cyrus suddenly praised with a big smile. The hall went cold after those words, everyone staring wide eyed at Cyrus, even Yoko and Zane. No one had seen this coming, especially Mr. Briggs. This was a turn of events that had never occurred before because Cyrus had never humbled himself for someone he had looked down on and a person that he considered lowered him, yet he just did so for Zane. Without a doubt, he knew who was in control and that

The room was quiet as Mr. Briggs watched his wife and two brothers walk in on him, Jason was the first to speak after the door got shut closed, “We have been waiting to hear from you these past days, but you have been silent. Now that your plan with Cyrus for Zane has failed. What now?” For a while, Mr. Briggs didn’t say anything, instead, he let the tension build up between the four of them until eventually, he said something, “Which one of you went against my word?”Confused and annoyed by his lack of an answer, Deborah, Jason, and Austin stared at each other before glaring back at him, and then Deborah asked, “What are you talking about?”“Which one of you paid someone to run over Zane with a car?” Mr. Briggs asked, his expression still emotionless despite the accusation he made. The four immediately seemed pissed by his question and the fact that he looked irritated when he said those words made them even mad.“What are you talking about?” Austin asked, snapping his brows togethe

Seeing that his wife's demeanor had shifted, Zane cleared his throat, not expecting things to turn out like this, and then, he asked with a small smile, “Have you decided what you want to eat?”Just as Emma was about to respond, she heard a voice that immediately ruined the peace of mind she had tried so hard to gain, cringing at the sound of Ava's words, “My dear cousin…”Turning her head, Emma locked eyes with Ava, who smirked at her with a bunch of her girls friends following her.‘Great,’ Emma grumbled to herself as she dropped her gaze to the menu to hide her glare.The mere sight of Ava made Zane growl low in his throat as the ladies approached them.“Good evening, cousin-in-law.” Ava drawled sweetly as she stopped and stared down at the couple.When Zane ignored her greetings, that cleaned the smirk off her face, and she looked back to see her friends giving her a questionable look.“Emma, it’s been awhile since you moved out of the mansion with your husband, and you have negle
