Xenon decided to help Miya when they first met merely because he thought she looked like Sol Keaton, but as he got to know her a bit better, he realized that Miya reminded him more of the little girl, the angel.Miya breathed heavily, looking at Xenon, not knowing what to do or what to say anymore."Get up and get out of my room." Xenon got off her and said coldly."What's between us?" Miya asked, lying on the bed still. She bit her lips, looking at Xenon with tearful eyes."Nothing. I purchased you. You are a toy. What else do you think you are?" Xenon sneered."Xenon Uba, you can have any woman you want. Why did you do that to me? Don't you find it..."Miya wanted to say 'disgusting,' but she thoughtbetter off and rephrased, "Don't you think you deserve better?"Xenon glared at her. "Don't tell me you didn't enjoy it. You were moaning aloud." He got up and walked to the bathroom. "Ask the maid to come and change the beddings. Don't forget to take the pills."Miya heard the bathroom
Miya looked up and saw him looking at her neck. Subconsciously, she put her hand on it, trying to cover the marks.Xenon frowned and suddenly swept her hand away and stroked her neck rather violently. "Why are you trying to hide them?" He questioned."I.." Miya muttered."Don't you try to be smart?" Xenon snapped. "Whoever betrays me suffers the worst consequence.""I never have the intention of betraying you at all.""Good. And pray that your body still interests me.""I will. I shall try my best to please you,"“Before I get tired of you and kick you out, your body and your heart belong to me only! I'm a possessive person. I don't like to share my properties. Do you understand clearly ?"You are a tyrant. Miya thought. Do you even want my heart?! Huh! With hesitation and reluctance, Miya nodded. Xenon sensed her reluctance and quickly grabbed her chin with his hand angrily."What's that look for? Are you thinking of some other man in your heart?" He asked.Frightened, Miya shook h
She wiped the tears, cleaned off her face, and walked into the bathroom to re-apply some make-up to help disguise her. tiredness. Yet, it didn't help much.As she walked out of the bathroom, disheartened, she aight a glimpse of a familiar figure standing on the stairs by the fire door.She knitted her brows. It was. Jameson Uba, leaning one hand and the other hand in his trouser pocket. He was looking out of the window absent-mindedly.A young and slim girl wearing sunglasses was standing next to him. She seemed to be speaking to him, but Jameson didn't seem interested. Suddenly, Miya recognized the girl. isn't she Sophia Moore?! Daughter of the American Mafia boss and younger sister of Jake Moore, who is said to be the best looking man of the year.As soon as Miya recognized them, she looked away, hoping to sneak away. I'd better stay away from these two! She thought. However, she wasn't quick enough. "Isn't that my sister-in-law? Why? Are you running away? Do Mrs. Moore and I frigh
"I wonder how Miya managed to seduce Mr. Xenon Uba!""Well, she's definitely a bold one. She just slapped Miss Sophia Moore! I wonder whose side Mr. Xenon Uba will stand on.""Miss. Sophia Moore, of course! I mean, who has the guts to anger The Moore’s family?.”"But isn't Miya now Mrs. Uba? Surely, Mr. XenonUba will support his wife...""Hush...t's Mr. Xenon Uba. Hush.."The crowd wère murmuring and gossiping with excitement, but as soon as they saw Xenon coming, they hurried away.Miya didn't see Xenon coming from behind, but Jameson and Sophia did. Jameson stayed andwatched indifferently while Sophia was curious to know how Xenon would react.Seeing that Miya didn't know he was behind her, Xenon stopped and gestured to Levi and hisbodyguards to stop as well. He wanted to see how Miya would deal with it.Miya could sense that something was up. The crowd had left. Perhaps they don't want to get involved, which is unae iandable. Miya thought.She wanted to get back to work soon as
His breathing, as well as his words, made Miya blush. She felt a sense of pleasure and embarrassment. Levi and the bodyguards must have heard! She thought.Miya buried her face on his chest, too embarrassed to look at others. In fact, no one was looking at them at all. They were either looking up at the ceiling or down on the floor.They knew well enough when not to interfere. Xenon grabbed Miya's chin and lifted her face up, "I still remember clearly what happened this morning. You are the very first person who has the guts to confront me and speak to me like that."To her own surprise, Miya replied, "What about those that went behind your back?" She regretted it as soon as she said it.Xenon's face turned stern, then he sneered, "Ha-ha. Dead." He said briefly. It sent a shiver down Miya's spine."Thanks for sparing me," Miya said timidly. The door opened, and she scurried away. "Have a nice day." She hurried back to her seat, where she felt the safest.As usual, all the other secre
Since she was little, Jodie hated to see people being bullied or taken advantage of. She had always wanted to protect those in need.Miya was her best friend from childhood, and surely she wouldn’t want anyone to treat Miyabadly. Just as she was speaking with enthusiasm, she suddenly looked terrified and turned around.Confused and shocked, Miya asked. "What's the matter, Jodie?""He, err, he's here." Jodie stuttered.Miya turned around and noticed that the bustling canteen had suddenly turned silent, and everyone was looking towards the door. It was Sean Smith walking in with the company of a few bodyguards. He had a subtle and gentle smile on.Smartly and neatly dressed, he looked elegant, successful, and there's an air of authority abouthim. His charm was different from Xenon's distant feel nor Jameson's carefree playfulness, but he was not a bit less charming than either of them.It was apparent that people were looking at him with admiration. Before Jodie could hide under thet
There was apparent mockery as well as jealousy in their tones, in their laughs. They all despised her. Miya heard pretty much all that they said, yet she remained quiet and pretended that she had not heard anything.When it was about clock out time, it suddenly went quiet in the office. Miya was working on an interior design sketch when she realized the sudden silence. She looked up from her laptop and saw Xenon coming. Everyone greeted courteously, "Good afternoon, Mr. Xenon Uba."Miya stood up immediately and accidentally bumped her knees at the leg of the table. "Ouch." she cursed quietly.Xenon stood by the door, a hand in his pocket, and looked at Miya coldly. No one dared to look at him directly except Miya, and Miya noticed the awkward silence and intention. She opened her mouth as if to say something but didn't know what to say.Xenon beckoned Miya and turned around to leave.Without hesitation, Miya hurried after him.When she followed
"Good to know," Xenon replied plainly. Then he handed a little box to her. "Put it on.""Huh?" Miya was startled."Open it.Miya opened it, saw the silver ring studded with a big pink diamond, and stared at Xenon open -mouthed. It must be worth millions! And the design is beautiful. Miya thought. She noticed the letter K carved on the ring and put it on her ring finger.Thank you." Miya said with a smile, then she thought of something and asked, "What about yours?""Huh. Why would you think I should wear one?" Xenon said with a sneer."I thought you would kneel down to propose. Isn't that the usual way?" Miya said with a grin."Who do you think you are? You are asking me to kneel down before you?!" Xenon almost exclaimed"I was just joking. We are married,after all." Miya muttered timidly. "Give it back to me if you don'twant it," Xenon said coldly."Of course I want it. I like it very much." Miya replied immediately."Then don't complain.""I won't." Miya pouted her lips and thought
