Semua Bab When Life Takes A Turn: Bab 111 - Bab 120

Moses briskly strode over to Faye and looked at her longingly. “Fifi, it’s been so long. I didn’t expect you to remember me.”A little embarrassed from all his staring, Faye blushed and nodded with a smile, avoiding Moses’ gaze.Zayn noticed Faye’s unusual reaction and wondered if she shared a secret past with this man called Moses. To be honest, he was a little unsettled by it. No man wanted his wife to be caught in an entanglement. Nonetheless, he did not display his jealousy directly. This was Faye’s class reunion, and he was going to let her enjoy the night regardless.Zayn scrutinized Moses discreetly, deducing he was a successful man with a decent enough background. It was obvious from both the way he oozed confidence and the deference that his escorts demonstrated.Fred spoke up, “Moses, you came just in time. You were the class rep, so come be our judge. Faye’s husband drove blindly and rammed into my BMW. He should take full responsibility, shouldn’t he?!”Catching the ke

“Didn’t I ask you not to shoot your mouth off? Why didn’t you listen to me?!”Faye gave Zayn a hard pinch when they entered the hotel together and huffed, “You embarrassed me again. I should’ve known not to ask you to come along!”Zayn hissed from the sharp sting, gasping, “Ow! Not so hard! I was just playing along when your class rep was trying to act cool. I was fulfilling his wish. How’s that being embarrassing?”Faye let go of Zayn. Of course, she realized that Moses had done what he did in order to show off and appear impressive. In fact, she was pretty disappointed. The number of years that had passed had turned a pure-hearted youth into a jaded, worldly man.“What he did was his business. You just have to behave yourself!” Faye shot Zayn a dark look and ordered, “When the gathering starts later, you’re not allowed to run your mouth off carelessly. You mustn’t embarrass me again, understand? Or else...or else…”When Faye was unable to come up with a threat, Zayn chortled. “O

Faye jolted as the blood drained from her face. She paled and her expression was caught between a grimace and embarrassment.Zayn creased his brows as he looked toward where the voice was. It was a depraved-looking man who was making his way toward them with a smirk. He made eye contact with Moses amidst everything, looking obsequious.Moses had not come into the hotel right away just now because he had stepped away to make a call to look into Zayn. His probing did not disappoint him. In fact, it was a huge surprise to him!Faye was not married to ‘someone.’ Her husband had gotten married into her family instead! This husband of hers was a loser and was rather infamous in Waltz City for that very fact. A lot of people knew him. Moses also found out that Faye was not close to her husband because the man had done plenty of things to embarrass her in recent years.To be honest, he was elated when he heard the news.This was a chance sent by the heavens. He still had high hopes of win

Zayn’s question was posed to Faye, but the people around them heard him and widened their eyes. “What? You don’t even know Cristian?”“Goodness, no way! Don’t you know who Cristian is? Faye, does your husband come from Mars?”“Hold on, what did he say just now? Cristian’s a small-time star? Ha, hilarious… not! He isn’t that capable, but he’s pretty capable of shooting his mouth off.”People around them started to mock him and stared at Zayn like they were looking at some idiot. Cristian’s female fans, specifically, did not have even an inkling of positive feelings for Zayn. They thought that he was ignorant and arrogant. How dare he call Cristian a small-time star? Although he had been caught up in a scandal half a year ago and kept a low profile now, he was still a celebrity who ordinary people could hardly meet.Faye seethed and pinched Zayn. “Can you please talk less? Don’t you think you have embarrassed me enough?”Zayn looked back at her innocently. “I was just asking if it’s

Moses could not hold it in and guffawed first after he said the words. The rest of his old schoolmates followed, the chorus of laughter loudly bubbling through the hotel.Cristian was taken aback. He did not join in the laughter, suddenly feeling a sense of foreboding. “Mr. Belon, where’s this person you mention?”Moses jabbed a finger. “There, that’s him.”When Cristian's eyes followed Moses’ finger, he saw a man dressed casually with his legs crossed sitting on a chair and munching on some nuts. There was no one around him and he looked lonely by himself.Despite that, the man did not appear awkward or upset by his situation. Instead, there was an easy smile on his face like he was unfazed by any of it.Cristian felt a tremor run through him when he got a clear view of the man. His eyes bulged and he could not believe who it was!Was that not Violet Vision’s chairman who he had just met two days ago? Why was he there?Cristian dared not trust his senses. His first instinct was
