INICIAR SESIÓNBefore Vessara could say anything, Razen exchanged a look with the makeup artist.
From Vessara's perspective, it looked like they were passing some kind of secret signal.
Still, there was something oddly awkward about Razen's expression.
Was something wrong?
She thought about it for quite a while but couldn't figure it out. In the end, she simply gave up and stayed silent.
After a quick touch-up, Vessara got into Razen's car, and the two of
As Razen continued speaking, he suddenly stopped and simply looked at Vessara.For some reason, a faint sense of unease suddenly rose in his chest.“What are you looking at?”Razen's voice suddenly came from beside her, snapping Vessara back to reality.She blinked, a trace of confusion still in her eyes.Only then did she realize that she'd been staring at Razen for quite a while.Vessara quickly shook her head, trying to clear her thoughts.“N-no… nothing.”“If there's something you want to know, just ask. I'll answer you honestly.”Even so, Razen still looked suspicious. He stared at Vessara without blinking.He kept looking at her until Vessara felt goosebumps spreading across her skin.Finally, she spoke.“I'm actually a little curious about what happened between you and Christina. The fact that she was suddenly able to find me, and that you didn't seem surprised by it at all… I can't help being curious.”There was more Vessara didn't say.She had always felt that Christina's fee
For a moment, the air around them fell completely silent.Razen suddenly felt as though time had stopped. His mind went completely blank, as if there wasn’t a single sound left in the world.A few seconds later, he finally spoke.“I understand.”No wonder he had searched for so long and never been able to find the file.If the file had never been in this room in the first place, what could he possibly have found, even after turning the entire place upside down?Razen slowly closed his eyes.When he opened them again, only a hint of coldness remained in his gaze.“Then let’s put Jason aside for now. As for England, I happen to have some leads on my end too.”Razen looked up and met Vessara’s eyes, only to find the woman deep in thought, her expression unusually serious.“Okay. Once you’ve made the arrangements, we’ll leave.”Vessara spoke slow
The car pulled to a stop in front of the building, and Vessara slowly woke up.“Okay, we're here. Time to get out.”Razen leaned toward her, his voice unusually gentle.As soon as Vessara lifted her head, she found herself looking straight into his deep, unreadable eyes.“Okay.”Vessara got out of the car and stretched. She instantly felt much more refreshed.She followed Razen into the building, and the scene inside looked exactly the same as it had the first time she'd come here.“Good morning, Mr. Valdis.”“Mhm.”Razen casually acknowledged the employees they passed, his expression as cold and indifferent as ever.As he walked through the building, countless curious glances landed on Vessara.It wasn't until the two of them had disappeared down the hallway that the employees finally started whispering among themselves.“Who was that woman with Mr. Valdis just now? She looked pretty
The café wasn’t very crowded that morning. Most of the people coming and going were pedestrians rushing to work, canvas bags slung over their shoulders.Christina sat in a corner wearing a red dress, her fingers tightly wrapped around her coffee cup. Her expression was cold.Even now, she still couldn’t figure out why Vessara had asked to meet her.Was she just trying to show off?What was there to show off about?Christina refused to believe Vessara could love Razen more than she did.Her fingers trembled around the coffee cup, completely beyond her control.Ding.The wind chime above the door rang, signaling that someone had entered.Christina instinctively looked up.A graceful figure walked in.It was her—the girl in the photo her private detective had sent her. Vessara Barclay.Vessara was dressed in a long black dress that perfectly accentuated her curves. Ever
After a few seconds of silence, Vessara decided to answer the call.But even after picking up, she didn't speak right away. She simply waited quietly for the person on the other end to say something first.“Boss.”After a brief pause, Roy finally spoke, sounding hesitant.“Boss, did I bother you?”“No. Just say what you need to say.”Vessara slightly raised her eyes, her voice calm.Even though she'd already prepared herself for this, her heart still gave a small jolt when she heard Roy's voice.In the end, she could only sigh.Roy felt the same way. His fingers tightened around the phone. His throat felt painfully tight, as though he couldn't get the words out. Even his gaze had become somewhat unfocused.After a few seconds, Roy opened his mouth and continued.“I've already taken care of all the people who were secretly stationed around the base. I wanted to repor
“Mrs. Barclay, what were you going to tell Razen? I’m honestly curious.”Vessara followed up on Isabella’s earlier words, her eyes practically glued to Isabella as she stared at her without blinking.Isabella’s heart skipped a beat.She suddenly realized what she had just said and quickly waved her hands, trying to laugh it off and change the subject.But the moment she looked up and met Vessara’s curious gaze, a voice deep inside her kept telling her over and over:Don’t hide this from Vessara.For a moment, Isabella couldn’t say anything. She simply stood there, frozen, a trace of confusion in her eyes.A few seconds later, Alexander finally noticed how stiff Isabella had become.He quickly stepped in front of her, forcing a smile onto his face as he awkwardly said, “It’s really nothing. Most of it was just business-related stuff, and you probably wouldn&rsq
