INICIAR SESIÓNChapter 185.Nova stepped out of the black luxury car smoothly. She raised her hand, pulling off her large dark sunglasses while using her other hand to gently smooth down the front of her black body-hugging dress. She looked completely elegant and high-end.“Do you want me to come inside with you?” Zaydeen asked from the back seat, his large hand reaching out to hold her fingers tightly.Nova turned around and shook her head gently at him. “I will be completely fine, Deen. You don’t have to come inside with me.”Zaydeen looked at her face, his dark eyes intense. “You look extremely beautiful, kitten.”Nova smiled immediately, his sudden compliment melting straight into her heart and instantly boosting the confidence that was slowly slipping away from her.“Thank you,” she whispered gently.Zaydeen leaned forward, planting a soft, lingering kiss on her forehead. “Do not forget, Nova. You have every single right to stand up and walk away whenever you want. No one in that house deserves
Chapter 184.The exact moment the private luxury jet smoothly landed on the tarmac and Nova stepped out onto the metal stairs, her heart skipped a huge beat. Oh goodness! She could not completely believe that she was finally back in her own homeland. After two long, hectic months of sleepless nights and intense work, she was finally here. She was finally going to see her younger brother, and her best friend, Lena. Oh goodness, this was so incredibly exciting!Zaydeen came forward smoothly from behind her, stretching his large hand out to hold her hand tightly. He leaned down slightly, his lips brushing against her ear.“You are so eager to run away from me, kitten,” Zaydeen whispered into her ear in a low, teasing tone.Nova let out a deep, happy chuckle, tightening her grip on his fingers. “I am just excited to be back, Zaydeen.”The black security cars arrived for their pickup right on the tarmac. Zaydeen walked her over and opened the heavy car door for Nova. Before getting in, Nov
Chapter 183.A soft, tender smile formed at the corner of Zaydeen’s lips as he looked down at her face. He gently moved his large thumb to the corners of her eyes, carefully wiping her hot tears away completely before they could ruin her skin.“You do not have to thank me, kitten,” Zaydeen whispered, his voice incredibly deep and soothing.Nova chuckled softly through her watery eyes, her heart fluttering at his gentle touch. She squeezed the manila file tighter against her chest, feeling completely safe.Zaydeen kept his hands securely resting on her hips as she sat on the vanity table. He looked directly into her eyes and delivered the next piece of news.“And there is something else, Nova. Your brother, Daniel, is officially getting discharged from the hospital in India tomorrow.”The exact moment those words left his lips, Nova’s breath hitched completely in her throat. Her entire body went totally still on the table. Her heart melted completely, and she just sat there frozen, try
Chapter 182.Nova turned her head slightly to face the tall, remarkably handsome man in the navy blue suit. She looked up at his face, maintaining her calm expression, and smoothly reached out her right hand. She took his large hand into her own for a firm, polite handshake.“Oh, thank you so much! It is truly nice to meet you as well,” Nova said with a bright, welcoming smile.The man smiled warmly back at her, and after a brief moment, they both let go of each other’s hands. He adjusted his suit jacket slightly, looking at her with deep professional admiration.“I have to tell you, Miss Sinclair, I was completely blown away by your work,” the man said, his voice smooth and clear. “I actually saw the last major project that you designed back home, and seeing this new collection tonight completely confirms your genius. My name is Julian Sterling, and I am the managing director of Sterling Global Imports. We handle luxury distribution across Europe, and I must say, I really do look for
Chapter 181. Mr. Demark walked smoothly up the stairs onto the grand stage, holding his microphone firmly. He stood right in the center under the bright spotlights, facing the massive crowd of wealthy guests. He cleared his throat, a wide, proud smile stretching across his face. He spared his wife a glance and she gave him a soft reassuring smile that urged him to proceed. “Good evening, ladies and gentlemen,” Mr. Demark greeted warmly into the microphone, his voice booming clearly through the high-end speakers. “Thank you all so much for being here tonight. I want to welcome everyone to this historic event. Two months ago, I conceived a very ambitious idea. I wanted to create a joint high-end jewelry production that would bring together the finest minds in the luxury industry. And the very first person I reached out to with this vision was none other than Mr. Zaydeen Black.”The crowd immediately turned their heads to look directly at Zaydeen’s table, murmuring in deep respect.Mr.
Chapter 180. Two months.It had officially been two long, grueling months of non-stop, intense work. Two solid months of Nova sitting down at massive wooden desks day and night, designing intricate patterns alongside Chloe and the other highly skilled design team members.The initial pacing of the project had been completely brutal. In the beginning, the struggle was real. There were so many technical mistakes made, so many tiny imperfections in the wax molds, and so many frustrating moments where a design just didn’t look right in the light. Nova and Chloe had stayed up until three o’clock in the morning on multiple nights, desperately trying as much as possible to work out the flaws in the digital 3D models. They had argued over gem settings, stressed over the thickness of the gold bands, and occasionally cried out of sheer exhaustion.But through all of the heavy stress and imperfections, the absolute perfection of the final pieces slowly began to emerge. The design team had been
