The first time Zayn noticed that Lindsey was acting out of the ordinary was when he went to the bathroom to take a shower.After so long, Lindsey had become bolder, having gone through so much. However, when Zayn asked who was going to take a shower first, Lindsey blushed.In the end, Zayn said that he would go first.Lindsey watched as Zayn went into the bathroom.A few minutes later, Zayn had just turned on the showerhead when he heard Lindsey calling him from outside, "Zayn?""Hmm?" Zayn answered in a low voice as he quickly rinsed his body. "What's wrong?""Nothing." Lindsey sounded like she was relieved.Zayn had a strange feeling in his heart, which made him a little uneasy. Soon after, he heard Lindsey calling out to him again, "Zayn?"This time, Zayn's answer was not as brief. He said seriously and patiently, "I'm here. I'll be right out. I just asked someone to prepare your toiletries and clothes. They’ll be here soon, so remember to open the door later."Lindsey said
One year later.Denarius.Looking at the couple sitting side by side at the front of the conference room, everyone present was either envious or amazed, but they all felt respect for them.The meeting was coming to an end. Quentin was still standing in his old position behind the couple. Although he had more authority and more shares than most people in the company, he still wanted to focus on being the President’s personal assistant as he had in the past.That year, Denarius had expanded greatly and its influence on the international scene was extraordinary.Moreover, what was even more interesting to everyone rather than Denarius’ expansion was the story of its President, Zayn Guggenheim.Back then, Zayn was assisting the police with a case and sacrificed everything. Although they later caught the culprit, Zayn was seriously injured. No one knew whether he was alive before he reappeared in the public eye one year later.The scars on his face were almost gone with surgery and t
Lindsey and Zayn's wedding was held in August during mid-summer.The thought of compensating Lindsey for the lack of a wedding had been on Zayn’s mind a few years ago, but due to the series of events, it never came to fruition.At first, Zayn wanted to hold their wedding in December. He did not forget the day he left Lindsey all alone in the snow to collect their marriage license by herself.Zayn had left Lindsey standing in the raging cold wind for more than two hours before he sent his assistant to retrieve the marriage license with Lindsey in his stead using his portrait.What should have been a very romantic day turned out to be bitter and cold for Lindsey. In retrospect, Lindsey must have been looking forward to marrying Zayn, but after that day, she must have felt so heartbroken. Fortunately, he still had the chance to compensate her.Lindsey was oblivious to the proposal Zayn had planned for her.Plenty of rumors and all kinds of speculation arose when Zayn had just retu
Three days before the wedding, Mrs. Wendy took Lindsey back to Opal Suites, at which Zayn expressed great dissatisfaction and objection.However, even if Zayn was unhappy with this arrangement, he could not do anything about it because Mrs. Wendy made it clear that there was no room for negotiation. For the first time, Zayn had no say in this matter.With their wedding date approaching, Lindsey temporarily handed over her duties in Denarius to someone else. The couple who had been stuck together like peas in a pod every day before this were suddenly separated.Due to the wedding, Zayn had also alleviated his work at the office and had been busy making preparations for more than a month. The people who suffered most were Quentin and Luke. The two of them often ran back and forth between the office, the Guggenheim mansion, and the wedding venue, but sometimes, they still could not find Zayn.Initially, Zayn wanted a destination wedding in France because once, when they saw a newly-we
Since Zayn was responsible for planning their wedding, Lindsey was completely kept in the dark about the wedding venue decor until that moment.Lindsey was sitting in their wedding car when she saw a large field of gorgeous flowers in the distance."Isn’t it nice?" Zayn asked in Lindsey’s ear.Lindsey was dumbstruck and mumbled, "Yeah..."She had been gifted flowers by many people, but this was the first time Zayn had given her flowers, and he gave her this many at once.The wedding venue was decorated in a rustic Nordic style. Although it was summer, the color scheme Zayn chose was very much spring, with white, light green, and pink themes, as well as the sea of red roses that was impossible to ignore.When Zayn got out of the car, he carried Lindsey down. According to tradition, Zayn was to stand on the other end of the aisle while he waited for Lindsey to walk towards him. They would hold hands under the wedding arch and say their vows.In normal circumstances, the bride's fa
"You really don't want me to look for her?" Zayn's eyes were filled with heartache as his large hand patted Lindsey's soft hair."No need for now." Lindsey shook her head and wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes. "Since she doesn't want to show herself, it’ll just make it difficult for her if we look for her. It's better to let her be free. I'll just wait for her to come back to me."Her tone was serious while her fair little face looked determined."You little fool." Zayn hugged her waist and led her to their room. "Alright, let's go back.""Mm."Lindsey nodded heavily. It was their big day today, so she had to be more cheerful.After putting away Sieben’s gift, the couple went to the reception hall. All the guests were already seated. When the couple walked in together, all eyes were on them.There were many handsome men and beautiful women in this world, but it was rare to see such a good-looking and elegant pair like Zayn and Lindsey. Particularly when the two of t
"Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable, please try again later..."The call sounded for the millionth time as Lindsey Juhl squatted by the roadside helplessly, clutching her phone.Lindsey turned her head to look at the Guggenheim Tower behind her and thought about the words her mother said over the phone this morning, “If you can't get Zayn Guggenheim to help us, you will be disowned from the Juhl family!”In the end, Lindsey strode in the office tower with gritted teeth."Miss, may I ask who you are looking for?""I'm looking for Zayn Guggenheim.""President Guggenheim?" The receptionist looked at the visitor with a professional smile on her face and continued, "Do you have an appointment?"Lindsey pressed her lips together and said hesitantly, "...I'm his wife."The receptionist froze and asked her to wait for a moment as she made a call using the desk phone.Lindsey Juhl was a little nervous -- ever since the Juhl family forced Zayn to marry her thre
Zayn Guggenheim stretched out his hand and one by one pulled apart the fingers that were tugging on his sleeve, then walked out without looking back.Parked at the front entrance, the car door of the Maybach was opened. Before Zayn got in, a small hand dragged him back."Mr. Guggenheim, as long as you can save the Juhl family, I’ll do anything for you."Zayn frowned, shrugged off her hand with disgust, and sneered. "You’ll do anything? What do you have to offer? Yourself?"Lindsey Juhl's small face turned pale and was rendered speechless."Don't disgust me, Lindsey Juhl! Why do you think your family’s business has fallen to this point today?“Did you wonder why companies that have been dealing with the Juhls for many years suddenly refused to continue their deal? Why did investors, one after another, withdraw their investments? Who do you think is behind all of this?"Lindsey Juhl, listen carefully. If you hadn't been so desperate to marry me back then, I wouldn't have taken r
