The maid responded promptly, "Mr. Tristan is not at home at the moment."Griffin, in front of his brother's mansion, inquired, "Can you tell me where he went?"She replied, "No, sir, but I advise you to ask Mr. Xavier."Griffin asked, "Why? Did they leave together?"The maid explained, "No, but Mr. Xavier came here a few hours ago looking for him. By now, he must have found him."Thanking for the information, Griffin smiled before turning and getting into the car.Dialing his phone, Griffin called Xavier's number, who answered immediately.Xavier, relieved, said, "I'm glad you called!"Curious, Griffin asked, "Why? Are you in trouble?" Music could be heard in the background.Xavier replied, "I need your help... I mean, Tristan does!"Worried, Griffin started the car as soon as Xavier provided the meeting address. It was a bit far, causing him to accelerate more than usual, but without exceeding safety limits.Upon arriving at the parking lot of a nightclub in Manhattan, where his brot

Chapter 42

Aurora shouted through the intercom, "Don't let him come up!"The lecherous old lady at the reception asked, "Are you sure about that, young lady?"Aurora promptly replied, "Of course I am! I don't want to see that snitch even if he were covered in gold!"After the warning, she went to the kitchen to try and prepare a snack, as Adelaide wasn't home and hadn't left anything prepared for lunch. She searched the pantry for something edible and easy to make, opting for pasta, and then went in search of a suitable pot."And never reject my entry again!" Aurora startled at Kai's deep voice, who had just entered the kitchen."I think everyone thinks this is a free-for-all and that they can come in whenever they please!!!" Aurora replied, irritated. "I don't want to talk to you!" the redhead affirmed."Are you cooking?" Kai changed the subject, looking at the pot she was holding. "What miracle is this?""Don't try to change the subject! Get out of here right now! Shoo!" Aurora retorted."I'm

Chapter 43

Adelaide and Kai were having lunch together at a diner near work."Judging by that look on your face, last night's dinner must have been terrible!" commented Kai, observing Adelaide's sullen expression."I did everything you said! All that talk about giving a chance, and she goes and throws wine in Mr. Callahan's face!" grumbled Adelaide."You know she wouldn't have attacked him if she didn't feel offended," Kai said."He called her a brat, but the reason for the argument was Tristan. I didn't hear the whole conversation, but I know she defended him. She still cares about him. I know it," Adelaide confided."She doesn't..." Kai abruptly interrupted his speech, feeling a strange dizziness. His hand gripped the table's edge for support, and he shut his eyes tightly, sensing everything around him spinning."What's wrong? Are you okay?" Adelaide asked, concerned."Yes." He slowly opened his eyes and blinked a few times to regain his composure. "I'm fine! It was just a moment of dizziness.

Chapter 44

A bit disoriented due to the fight that had happened seconds ago, Aurora looked at Seraphina, who was standing angrily in front of her."What do you think you're doing?" Seraphina inquired with authority. "You're just standing there doing nothing! Try to calm the guests down and don't let them leave!"Aurora nodded in agreement and went to do as she was told, even though she felt that she wasn't in the best psychological condition to carry out the task. But, after all, work is work.She chatted with the guests and tried to calm them down, conveying tranquility and nonchalance, but inside, she was deeply affected. Being in the same place as Tristan had never been an easy task, but encountering him again after everything that had happened in Tokyo left her feeling sad, angry... a mix of emotions that drove her crazy.When the commotion finally subsided, Aurora headed to the dressing room at the back of the stage. She passed by the models, who seemed restless, including the dark-haired m

Chapter 45

Xavier stood in front of the beast's office door. He whispered a brief prayer before entering. He closed the door behind him very carefully, as Tristan was in a bad mood and had a headache; any noise bothered him."Genevieve said she sent for me," Xavier continued, standing with his arms behind his back."I need the security camera footage from my neighborhood," Tristan said, massaging his temples."What are you looking for?""Someone left an envelope at my door last night. I want to know who it was."Knowing that Tristan wouldn't reveal the envelope's contents, Xavier decided to ask, "Is someone threatening you?"Tristan denied it. He wouldn't be surprised if he were being threatened; making enemies was part of the business world."I'll arrange that right away!" Xavier replied."Xavier," Tristan called before he could leave. He leaned on the glass table and interlocked his own hands, looking more serious. "This matter ends here. Don't discuss it with anyone."The Big Ears swallowed h

Chapter 46

Aurora's expression contorted in a mixture of shock and indignation as she stared at the figure in front of her, who seemed to have been caught red-handed. She wondered if she was so intoxicated that she was seeing hallucinations."What the hell is this? Am I so drunk that I've started seeing hallucinations?" she thought, staring at the person in question.However, she soon realized it wasn't a hallucination, but an unwanted reality. "It was real, unfortunately," she admitted to herself.Without wasting time, she moved towards the person, taking firm steps, and declared firmly, "So it was you... It was you who had been following me all this time!"The person, who was Violet, raised her hands in a defensive gesture, urging Aurora to stop. It was the first time Aurora saw fear in Violet's eyes, but the apprehension quickly gave way to a serious expression."Hey, no, wait!" Violet pleaded. "Have you completely lost it?"Aurora retorted, "I've always been crazy, not blind!"Violet tried t

Chapter 47

Kai lay on his bed, drops of cold sweat sliding down his forehead, dark hair damp and body feverish. Griffin was the only one not in the room; he had gone to fetch a clean cloth for Kai, who was experiencing a nosebleed."Let's take him to the hospital," suggested Aurora."I'm not going! I hate hospitals!" Kai replied, still brusque despite his fever."I didn't ask if you like it or not, and I couldn't care less! You don't have a choice, you're going to the hospital, period!" said Aurora, determined. She was worried about his persistent fever and wouldn't let it worsen due to Kai's stubbornness."Here's the cloth," Griffin said, appearing and handing the fabric to Kai, who placed it to his nose. In no time, the white cloth was stained with blood."Have you been to the doctor?" Griffin asked."No, and he refuses to go. He's too stubborn," Adelaide answered for Kai, sitting at the edge of the bed, looking at her friend with a sad expression."It's better that you go, and I suggest you t

Chapter 48

It was early morning when Kai left the hospital. His condition was deplorable. He was so tired and unwell that he didn't question Tristan's presence, who, after all, gave him and Aurora a ride.Back at the apartment, Aurora helped her friend into the guest room. He lay down and nestled into the soft covers, gradually drifting off to sleep with the scent of lavender filling his nostrils. Aurora turned off the lights and gave one last look to Kai before exiting. She walked to the living room, where she saw Tristan standing in the middle of the room, his hair and clothes damp from the rain."How is he?" Tristan asked."With a fever, but the doctor said it's normal," she replied, looking downcast. "Thanks for the ride.""Do you need help with anything else?""No... you can go now." She went to the door and opened it, waiting for him to pass."Are you sure?""I am."He looked at her for a while. He knew she was lying, but he could understand her perspective. She wanted to be alone and proc

Chapter 49

Days later, Tristan had never been so impatient. Days had already gone by, and he still didn't have a response from Aurora. He didn't want to pressure her, but the anxiety was unavoidable. Every day, he checked his phone, looking for any message or missed call from her."Tristan!" Xavier barged into the boss's office."Don't you know how to knock?" Tristan set his phone down on the table."Sorry, Genevieve is no longer here to announce me... anyway, I just wanted to remind you about the early meeting with the Chinese businessmen tomorrow.""I won't forget. Now leave."Xavier nodded and left the office, but returned seconds later."Tristan!""What now?" Tristan looked at him with irritation."Speaking of secretaries, we still need to hire someone to cover that position. I already have a list of candidates and...""I'll look into it later.""Fine." He was about to close the door when he opened it again. "Tristan!""For heaven's sake, Xavier!" He exploded. "Did you decide to spend the da

Chapter 50

Luna watched through a glass pane as children between the ages of three to ten played in a small room filled with vibrant colors and educational toys. She smiled with emotion, thinking that soon one of those small and innocent beings would become her son or daughter."Miss Luna," a woman with black hair, but white roots, approached her. She smiled weakly as if regretting something. "I'm sorry, but I have bad news."Luna's smile vanished. "What happened?""The judge did not approve your request for the adoption process," she said, noticing Luna's saddened expression."B-but why not?""Well, you're a single woman who lives for her own business. We can't entrust a child to be locked up at home, without receiving care and attention.""But I won't do that! I will be very present in their life and provide the best conditions.""I'm sorry, but the decision has been made...""What can I do to change your mind?" She persisted, desperate. "I'll do anything!""Miss, there's nothing we can do. Ag
