Semua Bab Business Tycoon Zenith and his Gift: Bab 71 - Bab 80

By the time Gift regained consciousness, Zenith's face was the first one she saw. “What happened?” She asked as his eyes sharpened. “She's awake, call the doctor!” Zenith shouted before turning back to her. “What were you thinking?” “What do you mean?” “You strained yourself so much that you can't even stand right now. The doctors think that you would need another two months to be able to start therapy, they said you stressed your legs too much,” he said as he held her hand and dropped it back to her side, repeating the motion nervously. “Well, I just wanted to be able to stand for the cruise tomorrow. I can't be useless after making you spend all this money.” “Useless? Who said you were useless for crying out loud? You're the reason why I got the chance in the first place, you're the reason why my little sister is more open. You're a very important person to Mez to us!” “Ouch,” Gift tried to move, but the pain shut up to her waist. “I can't move my legs, what about the ship

“Thank you for inviting us, I feel really honoured to be part of this meeting, Ruby Yu,” he said as he lengthened his strides to catch up, but her bodyguards ended up coming in between them. “I would like to have some private tea time with your partner, is that okay?” Ruby Yu suddenly paused, when she noticed that he wasn't giving up on going after Gift. “Gift is…” “She will be fine,” scarlet was the one who came in between them and said coldly.“Then, she can't handle too much cold and her leg is really sensitive right now because she had another issue with it yesterday,” he said nervously as he tried to reach Gift further. “I will look after my friend well,” she smiled at him as she found his actions comical and in total rivalry to the rumours she'd heard about him. He was supposed to be cold and clad that she was taken away, because he was in a bid due to his vice-president's corruption. Instead, he seemed really nervous about Gift. “Zenith really is in love with you,uhn?” Ru

“Boss,” she hurried to Ruby Yu's side and whispered, and that startled Gift who was still waiting for her death sentence.When she raised her head, she started to apologize profusely and Ruby Yu saw her younger self in her. It was the same with her lover right now, when his mother had found out about her after pretending that they were only friends for years. She had felt desperate, but his mother had smiled and accepted her without a itch, although she did it so she could make use of her for the power she had. “You don't have to apologize like that.” “Then do you want me to kneel down? I'm really sorry. If you'll accept my apology, I'll kneel,” Gift said as she tried to get on her knees but scarlet on Ruby Yu's command held her back. “And why would I want that?” Ruby Yu took a sip of her now cold drink with a smile as if she had no idea what she was tasting. “Because I betrayed you and…” “It's barely betrayal dear if I knew everything from the start. And like I said the other da

“You don’t have to worry about anything. I can promise on our friendship that nothing will be traced back to you and you’ll be very satisfied with the results also.” Ruby Yu twirled the wine glass in her hand before downing the rest of the content in one go and immediately flicking her finger for a refill.“You make it sound like you’re going to do something evil,” Gift, who could very well understand the evil glint in Ruby Yu’s eyes.“I will be doing quite the contrary to that. A good cleanup as a favor to the society so that evil people like them will not have a chance to cause accidents and disturbances.” Gift didn’t quite understand, but she nodded along.“I will trust you with it then and also, thank you for your help, I’m really grateful.”“You don’t need to thank me everytime, what are friends for?” Ruby Yu smiled as she thought about how entertained she would be.“They dared to mess with Ruby Yu’s friend, so they shouldn’t blame me, so tell me, how are things between you and

“Godmother is around,” someone announced and everyone looked up as Ruby Yu appeared at the very top of the spiral stairs that had a red carpet from top to bottom. Many were anxious to have an audience with her, because even in this top circle, she had the highest position.It felt like deja vu for Gift and Zenith as they also walked slowly towards the center, but unlike the first time, neither of them were jealous and a few other things had happened in reverse and there was a heavy air between the both of them, with neither of them being able to look into eachother's eyes. Or rather, they tried as the approached the others, but it felt like electricity zaps and they would look away the instant the tried, sure yet unsure at the same time what was going on and this could be related to what happened ten minutes back. Zenith had left the Washington’s to find Gift exactly ten minutes prior to that time and he had found her sulking in a corner haven emptied two flutes of champagne and w
