Ignoring Madison’s eager anticipation, Jayden walked up to Nina and snaked his hand around her waist with extreme familiarity.“Are you done buying them?” His lips curled up in a good mood when he saw the faint redness at the tip of her ears.Nina nodded, not daring to meet his eyes.With a soft laugh, Jayden pulled her close as he whispered. “I can’t wait to see how beautiful you’ll look in it,” Nina raised her head, feeling the heat on her face yet to subside when her eyes swept past Jayden and landed on the person behind him.It was as though she’d been hit with a bucket of ice water, and her face turned cold.Madison’s expression immediately changed upon seeing Nina.Slut!She muttered under her breath when she noticed Nina walk out of the lingerie store. Her face contorted with jealousy as she watched Jayden’s warm interactions with Nina. She felt a burning knot in her chest as her lips formed a tight line, unable to hide her envy.Every smile, every touch, and every word excha
Everyone’s faces immediately turned into contempt when they heard Madison’s words. Walking alongside Jayden, Nina’s aura wasn’t inferior to his in the slightest. Coupled with her stunning face, they assumed she was the daughter of some influential family. Turned out they had been overthinking. Madison’s words were like poison spreading through the group, tainting everyone's perceptions of Nina. Of course, these people did not bother verifying the authenticity of Madison’s words. As Jayden’s niece, they believed whatever she said without question. “Madison, won’t you introduce Jayden to us?” David, another one of Madison’s friends, took the opportunity and asked excitedly. Although these individuals were considered elites, they were not qualified to be in the presence of Jayden. In their world, only their fathers and grandfathers had the privilege of coming into direct contact with a man of his stature. This alone spoke volumes about the immense power and authority that Jayden L
"Who are you planning to take care of her?"Amid the tense standoff, a deep and authoritative voice suddenly rang out, slicing through the heated argument like a blade.All eyes turned toward the source of the commanding tone, and there stood Jayden Luxton, his presence filling the room with an undeniable aura of power.Nina’s heart skipped a beat as she saw Jayden stepping forward and shielding her behind him, his dark gaze fixed on Kevin with coldness.Jayden’s unexpected arrival caught Kevin off guard. He froze for a moment before his forehead broke out into a nervous sweat.“Why wasn’t I aware that my wife needed someone to take care of her?” Jayden continued, his voice cold and menacing.Kevin felt a sinking feeling as though someone had punched him in the gut.“Big Brother, I-I didn’t mean that,” he stammered, desperately attempting to salvage the situation.Jayden’s gaze remained fixed on Kevin, demanding an explanation for his hurtful words. “Care to explain what exactly you m
Nina had always been a brilliant student, which led her to receive scholarships and attend the same prestigious school as Nora. However, her good days at school did not last long.Nina’s mother Kristen was a sex addict. As a promiscuous woman, she couldn’t control her lust and involved herself with multiple sugar daddies.Shockingly, one of them turned out to be their school’s principal.When the principal’s wife discovered their affair, she was furious and wanted to settle scores. Unable to locate Kristen, she decided to lash out at Nina instead.Nora vividly remembered that day and the chaos that ensued.In the middle of classes, the principal’s wife barged into the classroom, dragged Nina to the school field, and beat her violently. The shocking scene gathered a crowd, and the entire school witnessed the commotion.If not for Nora alerting the authorities, Nina would never have been able to leave in a single piece.As a result, the authorities sent the principal’s wife to the polic
“Nina?” A surprised cry sounded from the distance, halting Nina in her tracks. She turned around to notice a familiar yet unexpected acquaintance.It was none other than her boss, Victor Levigne.On second thought, it wasn’t surprising for him to be here, since he also belonged to the upper echelons of society.However, to Victor, it was a shock.Since Nina was an intern at his company, Victor more or less knew about her background, hence arousing such a huge reaction from him.He made his way toward her and, as usual, was about to greet her with a hug.However, before he could even touch her fabric, a strong masculine body settled itself between them, preventing Victor from hugging Nina.Both Nina and Victor looked at the person in bewilderment, not knowing what he was up to.Though momentarily stunned, Victor quickly regained his composure.“CEO Luxton,” Victor acknowledged, his tone carefully neutral. “A pleasure to see you.”Jayden’s response was deliberated, his voice containing
Nina shot Madison an icy glare. However, before she could respond, a sudden jolt of pain shot through her knee as she was kicked from behind. Cold beads of sweat formed on her forehead, and her lips pressed together in a tight line as she fought to regain her composure. The sound of her knees knocking on the floor was loud, and everything around her seemed to blur as the world momentarily focused on that pulsing pain. As she fell, a shadow crept over her. The sensation of fingers entwined in her hair sent a tingling shiver down her scalp. With a forceful tug, her head got yanked backward by a tight grip on her hair. Madison’s lips curled into a cruel grin, her eyes glinting with a twisted satisfaction as she enjoyed Nina’s vulnerable state. This was the face that Jayden admired, right? Then she would destroy it. With malicious intent, Madison stepped forward and lifted her arm to deliver a sharp slap across Nina’s face that would probably cripple her face. However, before her ha

“Miss Santiago, I did not expect such a behavior from you,” the principal bellowed angrily. “I understand you feel provoked, but violence is never the answer.”Although he was proud to have a diligent student like her in his institute, Madison had the backing of the Luxton family.The nurse attended to Madison’s swollen face, applying a cold compress to her bruised cheek.Her tear-stained face twisted in pain as she winced, “It hurts!” she whimpered.With each minute, Madison’s sobs grew louder, as she yelled, “I can’t believe she did this to me! She’s fucking crazy!”The principal’s temples throbbed upon seeing the situation unfold in front of him. “Madison, could you please calm down? We’re here to address the issue.”Madison’s face was now purple and blue, her swollen features barely recognizable. Her mascara had smudged, leaving dark streaks down her cheeks, mingling with her tears.He was positive that Madison’s appearance would undoubtedly lead to serious consequences for Nina.
