LOGINEllen was admitted to a private ward, still unconscious. She was being taken care of by Sarah who was wiping her feet and face. Ivan entered the ward, looking at the unconscious Ellen.
“How is she?”
“She is still unconscious.” Sarah replied.
He took a look at Ellen before leaving the ward. “Take care of her.”
Ivan went into the director’s office and kicked the door open with a loud bang before sitting as if he owned the place.
This act of his earned a surprise look from a young man inside the office. He put down the documents he was reading on the table and pushed his glasses up as he saw it was Ivan that entered his office.
“Who is she?” Liam continued, “The lady Sarah brought, your new plaything?”
Ivan stared at him coldly.
In defense, Liam chuckled nervously and raised his hands up.
“Okay, okay, my bad.”
“She is different, take care of her.”
Liam stared hard at him as if to find any flaws in his words but he couldn’t find any.
“You are really serious about her, hmm?”
Ivan ignored him and went out of his office without giving him any glance. Liam seems to be used to his coldness, he shrugged and continued reading his documents.
Ivan went to the private room where Ellen was admitted, caressed her unconscious face and turned to Sarah.
“Make sure she takes her medicine and call me when she wakes up.”
He left the ward and returned back to the office.
In the office, he sat down with his hands massaging his aching temple. He took a look at the document that needs his signature. Before he could sign the document, a sultry voice was heard,
“Boss.” Grace put the document on his office table and she bent down seductively, her cleavage peeking from her tight shirt.
“Grace.” Ivan’s eyes dimmed as his Adam apple bobbed up and down.
“Yes boss.” She took the initiative to sit on his lap as her hands rubbed his shoulder.
Ivan looked at the ass that was sitting on his lap, recalling what happened yesterday night at the mansion.
“Fuck.”
Only she could make him crumble hard under her touch. With this, she’ll become his wife and the mistress of BSC Company. Grace smiled at her thought.
She slowly traced her hand over his chest, unbuttoning his shirt while giving him a seductive look.
She traced downwards but before she could get to the bulging area, her hand was caught.
“Boss.” Grace smiled awkwardly.
Ivan slowly looked at her and smirked. “Grace, let today be the last time you come into my office dressed this way.”
“If you don’t want to be thrown into a pond of Pinhara, do what I told you.”
“Okay boss.” Grace still smiled sweetly as she thought Ivan liked the conservative type.
Ivan looked at her coldly and knew what she was thinking about.
“No, I don't need you anymore and you need to knock before entering my office.”
He looked at her coldly as he went into his rest room to wash her scent off.
He thought to himself.
“When did I start refusing women’s touch no, it must be Grace’s scent. She doesn’t have a natural smell like Ellen. But I was not used to her scent before Ellen. I would have to visit the usual pub.”
Flower House.
A sexy woman in black gown came out swaying her hips, every move of hers was sultry. When she noticed the men's eyes on her, she turned towards them giving them a seductive smile. The men became excited as they looked at her hungrily. It seems she was used to the gaze as she swatted off in her heels.
“Mr. Vladimir.” Asher called out admiringly.
“Hmm.” Ivan’s cold voice sounded.
Asher looked at the man that clouded her mind since she met him, but the cold man didn't look at her way at all. It was like she never existed and never give her a second look. But he comes here anytime he is in heat but wont let her serve him. She stared at his cold expression, her eyes filled with longing.
“As usual.” The cold voice sounded again without sparing the girl any glance.
Asher bit her lips as tears gathered in her eyes. Yes, she has been in love with this cold man since five years ago when he came to her pub for the first time. At that time she was young and her fragile heart fell in love with his cold and handsome appearance. She dared not confess to him, as everyone knows his ruthless nature. Even though she did not have the heart to do as she was afraid of being rejected by him and won’t get to see him if she was sent away by him. So, she could only calm her throbbing heart.
“Be ready Rosa, Mr. Vladimir is here.” She clenched her fist as she looked at the young girl in front of her.
She knew his taste well. He liked them fresh and innocent with a little experience.
“Remember to serve him well and you will get paid handsomely.”
“Yes, Madam Asher.” Rosa replied as she went towards Ivan’s room.
Asher walked into Ivan’s room, informing him of the girl she brought along with her.
“Mr. Vladimir, she is here.”
She turned to look at Rosa signaling to her about what she had said before she came in. The girl in return nodded her head in obedience, understanding her. Seeing she understood her, she left the room.
As if on cue, Rosa pushed her chest out as she went immediately to fawn over him.
“Mr. Vladimir, let me pour you wine.”
Ivan glanced at her, a girl with big boobs and curvy ass. She looked ordinary, her type of beauty seems to give one comfort.
Seeing Ivan looking at her, she bent down, her nipple almost peeking out from her tight fitted top showing her two mounds.
“Come here.” Ivan called out.
Rosa walked towards him and sat on his lap as she clung her hands around his neck. She leaned on him, feeling his temperature and pressed her boobs on his chest.
Ivan pushed her on the bed as heat rushed downwards, his breathing rugged.
How could he feel that way for Ellen, it must be Grace's scent that made it that way earlier. He smirked at his thought. He flung her clothes on the floor, his actions aggressive and soon a series of moans and grunts came from the room.
Asher looked at the tightly shut door and heard the sounds coming from the room. She raised her head as the tears that had been threatening to fall came down in a rush.
“Why can’t it be me? Why?” She banged her hand on the wall beside her.
Inside the room, the atmosphere was filled with pleasure. A ring from Ivan’s phone broke the atmosphere.
He slowly removed himself from Rosa, earning a moan from her.
Ivan slapped her ass in return as he slowly picked up his cell phone that had been thrown on the floor.
He picked up the call and Sarah’s voice was heard from the other side.
“Master, miss is awake.”
She continued again as she stammered. “M...miss is…missing.”
“Okay." Ivan’s cold voice sounded.
Rose saw him entering the bathroom, she called out seductively.
“Mr. Vladimir.”
“Put on your clothes, we are done.”
Ricardo trudged slowly out of the old mansion. His steps were slow and heavy, his gaze unfocused and back hunched as if all the weight of the world had suddenly been placed on his shoulders. His steps were uneven and he might collapse if he didn't steady himself. He looked like a man that had just lost the most precious thing in the world. The night air blew colder than usual when he got outside but he didn't feel anything. He seemed unable to. Without sparing another glance behind him, he slid into the car. The leather felt warm against his cold self, he started the engine and very soon, the car roared to life before driving along the quiet road.The drive to the Adams mansion felt both long and painfully short.His mind drifted. The same images again and again.At first, when she had rushed towards him, he saw the marks on her chest, but he dismissed the idea. He thought maybe there were just mosquito bites. Then, the scenes at the garden replayed in his mind again.The position he
That voice, that cold voice. Ellen shuddered, her hand suddenly slipping from Ricardo’s as she distanced herself away from him.“G… going home.” Her words jumbled against one another.Ivan stood a few steps away, watching them with the same cold smile that made her stomach twist.He wasn't angry. That was what frightened her the most. “And did I allow you?” The voice asked, enjoying every bit of her expression.Ivan glanced at the side, a gentleman stood by the side looking at him with a hateful expression. No wonder she liked him, she likes this type? Tut…he looks weak. Would he be able to protect her this way? “You must be Ricardo, the boyfriend.”Ricardo pushed his chest out and said menacingly. “Yes, I am. And who are you?”Ivan’s eyes narrowed dangerously. “Don’t play with fire, young lad.” “Who are you calling a young lad?” He was only two or three years younger. They are within the same age bracket and why does he need to act like his father's age mate?Ivan didn't answer
By this point, dinner had arrived and the grand hall shifted into a different rhythm as the food demanded attention. It was said that the servants in the old mansion underwent rigorous training before they were put out there to serve the Vladimir family as the reputation of the family depended on it.The servants were dressed in uniforms as they moved gracefully through the crowd with practiced precision as they were taught and their polished shoes barely made sounds against the marble floor. They carried silver trays filled with a variety of dishes which were brought out from the kitchen one by one and the food filled the hall with rich aromas that immediately made everyone’s mouth water in the process.The scent of roasted meat, mixed vegetables, warm bread and expensive wine slowly filled every corner and gradually replaced the tension that had earlier dominated the cold mansion.The guests began moving toward the long dining tables that were covered in fine linen and arranged b
“And who gave you permission to go?” The voice cut through the air like a blade.Every conversation and laughter died instantly in the grand hall and the mansion was immediately plunged into silence.“I did.” Theo answered almost immediately, his tone clipped with calmness but edged with defiance as if he was not challenging the most dangerous man in the room.Ivan’s eyes darkened.“And who are you to do that?” Ivan bellowed, his voice booming across the mansion. The sound reverberated across the marble pillars and the guests cowered instinctively in trepidation.“Your older brother.” Theo’s reply was simple but the weight behind it was careless and unmistakable, as if to provoke him.“Ha, brother you say.”The word ‘brother’ hung in the air like smoke. Ellen felt it, a current of tension that made her skin crawl. She pressed herself closer to the wall to make herself invisible. Both looked at each other, their gaze locked, sparks flying invisibly between them as the mansion dropped
“Stop.”Slowly, Ellen turned towards Ivan, her heart pounding wildly in her chest as a thousand frantic thoughts collided in her mind. Is he going to take her back to the mansion?!But, she has finally left the cold walls of the mansion and besides, her parents are here waiting for her. Just one step. One step. No, like five steps, she could finally enter the mansion. She pinched the soft flesh of her palm, grounding herself in the sharp sting of pain as she quickly assessed the situation before her.He had just harassed her in the helicopter. Panic clawed at her chest. If she didn't act now, Ivan might change his mind and drag her back. She glanced at the dazzling old mansion from the corner of her eyes. The mansion… so close, yet completely out of reach.Suddenly, she moved towards him and kowtowed to him. “Please Ivan, don't take me back to the mansion.” She dropped her head lower, almost touching the floor.Ivan looked at the girl on the floor. He couldn't believe this was the
Ellen squeezed her eyes shut, waiting for death to claim her. She pushed back every fear and worries to the back of mind and waited.Finally, she could go and meet Grandpa Lupe. The old man had died since she was young. The kind grandfather had done his possible best to make her happy and had not treated her in any bad way. He had always slipped sweets into her pockets and even when she was in the wrong and was about to be punished by her mom, she would run to Grand Lupe who would shield her from the beatings and punishments.The six year old Ellen called out breathlessly. “Grandpa Lupe, Grandpa Lupe.” She crouched down immediately as she got closer to him, holding his legs for support from the small run.“What is it Ellen?” Grandpa Lupe’s warm voice answered as he crouched down to her eye level.Six year old Ellen pouted her lips as she pointed at the apple tree in front of her, her fingers still trembling from the small run. “I want apples, but mama doesn't want me to have them.
