LOGINMeanwhile, outside on the balcony of the presidential suite, Xander, Michael, and Maxwell made sure the door was firmly closed before they began their discussion.Xander leaned against the railing while Michael and Maxwell stood nearby.“Alright,” Xander said calmly. “Let’s talk about Derek. We need to decide what we are going to do with him now that he’s in our hands.”Hearing this, Maxwell folded his arms and said, “He won’t be going anywhere unless we allow him to. So we have enough time to figure out what comes next.”Xander’s expression hardened slightly as he muttered with a clenched fist, “I don’t intend to let him walk away after what he did to Viola.”“I know,” Michael replied. “But we also need to think carefully about how we handle this”. “Oh, and there is also Claire.” Maxwell said. At the mention of her name, Xander’s eyes narrowed as he chuckled and said. “She must be panicking by now.”Michael gave a small laugh and said, “Of course she is. She still hasn’t heard anyt
An hour later, they were finally done with breakfast, and the dishes had also been cleared away by the ladies. So right now, they remained in the suite, and were making small talks among themselves when suddenly, Xander glanced at Viola and said in a soft and calm voice, “Baby, I need to discuss something with the guys.”Although his voice was not loud, everyone clearly heard him.At the same time, Michael and Maxwell were not surprised by his words because they already knew there were important things they needed to discuss, especially concerning Derek and the waiter who was still in their custody. They needed to decide what they were going to do with both of them and how they would get the answers they needed.So Viola looked at Xander for a moment before smiling and nodding her head as she said, “Alright, you can go ahead. I will be fine here.”Hearing this, Xander gave her a small nod, but he still asked, “Are you sure?”Viola smiled reassuringly and replied to him. “Yes, I’m sur
Watching all of this, Michael leaned toward Maxwell and whispered, “I think we should stop before she completely disappears into his chest.”Groaning softly, Viola said, “I can still hear you.”Michael laughed and apologized.“Sorry.”With that, Alexa stood up and walked closer to the bed before smiling at Viola as she said, “Alright Vi. We will stop teasing you.”Viola slowly lifted her head, but she still avoided looking directly at everyone as she muttered, “ I hope you keep to your words”. “Yes my babe”. Alexa said and chuckled.Just as the room began to settle down, a loud growling sound suddenly came from Viola’s stomach, making them all go silent. Meanwhile, as soon as Viola heard the sound coming from her stomach, she froze, while Xander looked down at her.“Oh, looks like someone is so hungry”. Vivian laughed and said as she quickly reached for the bags of food on the table.So without any delay, she began taking the food out of the bags and arranging everything on the table
Although the room remained quiet for a few moments, they were still talking among themselves. Minutes later, Viola slowly moved in Xander’s arms, her brows drawing together slightly as she tried to wake up. She shifted her head against his chest before finally opening her eyes.For a few seconds, she remained still, not fully aware of what was happening around her. Then after some seconds, she heard a familiar voice, making her confused. “Good morning, sleepyhead,” Alexa said with a mischievous smile.Viola blinked her eyes several times before slowly lifting her head and the moment her eyes landed on Alexa, Vivian, Michael, and Maxwell sitting nearby, her expression immediately changed.She stared at them and stared back at her, which made her widened her eyes as the realization slowly came to her.Right now, she knew they had all been watching her.She immediately looked down at herself and then glanced at Xander, finally remembering that she had been sleeping comfortably in his a
Vivian slowly turned toward her and called out. “Alexa.”“What?” Alexa stared at her and responded. “I think you should tone down your excitement, because it might not be what you are thinking.” Vivian said. Grinning, Alexa chuckled and said, “I know we don’t know what is going on between them yet, but look at them. Do you really think they are just like this for no reason?”Vivian looked at them again and fell silent, because honestly, she did not know what to think.She had never imagined that she would walk into a room and find her sister sleeping so comfortably in Xander’s arms. After everything Viola had gone through with Nathan, Vivian had spent so much time worrying about what would happen to her sister after the divorce.Yet here Viola was, peacefully sleeping in the arms of another man, and that man happened to be Xander.Vivian slowly exhaled and murmured, “this girl….”. But Alexa giggled again, clearly happy with what she was seeing.So staring at Vivian, she said, “I ju
A few minutes later, the door to the private room opened, and Maxwell and Michael walked back in with their hands full of paper bags and food containers.Vivian and Alexa immediately stared at them in surprise. Considering how crowded the restaurant had been only a short while ago, they honestly could not understand how the two men had managed to get everything so quickly.“Wait, you two are already back?” Vivian asked in disbelief as she looked at all the bags. “How did you manage to get everything this fast?” She added.“I was actually expecting you to take at least thirty minutes,” Alexa seconded as she looked between the two men. “The restaurant was packed with people when we came in.”Michael simply winked at her with a proud smile and muttered. “You don’t need to worry about that, baby. We have our ways.”Hearing this, Alexa raised an eyebrow and asked with a small laugh.“Your ways?”“Yes,” Michael replied confidently and added with raised brows. “Very special ways.”Maxwell lau
She was not angry, but she was just shocked at her audacity and shameless behavior.“Bella,” she said in a cool voice and continued, “good children don’t talk like that when adults want to eat. You have already had dinner, right?”Upon hearing this, Bella blinked her eyes and looked at Nathan for
After ending her call with Alexa, she lay down on her bed and started scrolling through her phone with a lacy look. A few minutes later, she kept her phone so that she could rest, but soon her stomach growled loudly, which broke the silent room.Viola frowned at the unpleasant sound of her stomach
With that, they spent a few more minutes talking and discussing designs, ideas, and plans. At the same time, Mr Anderson shared a few business tips, reminding her to trust herself and never let anyone take credit for her work while Viola listened carefully, as her excitement grew with every word h
After chasing Nathan and Claire out of her room, Viola let out a long sigh of relief.Right now, she was in no mood to argue or explain anything to anyone so just getting them out of her room was the best peace she could ask for.With a small and satisfied grin, she began arranging her scattered be
