Semua Bab When Life Takes A Turn: Bab 501 - Bab 510

It had been a very long time since Faye encountered such an embarrassing situation, and she did not wish to remain there for another moment. She regretted going very much. If she had known what kind of gathering it was, she would never have agreed to come. She was tricked. She watched the mass of men and women gathered there with their arms wrapped around each other and engaging in behavior she found outrageous. She could do nothing to keep her face from going red. She had never felt so uncomfortable!She had gone there that night at the behest of an important customer. She had assumed that she was here for a meal and to get to know the other business owners, yet she did not expect it to be an evening of this nature! She never would have come if she had been warned about what it was going to be like.The customer was the stockholder of a renovation contractor and a close collaborator with Neotech Lighting Co. She was good friends with Faye and they would frequently address each o

Faye had no choice but to acknowledge that Lucius was rather good-looking and many times more handsome than Zayn. They were on completely different levels. Lucius was tall, slender, and dressed in a white suit just like Prince Charming. There was no telling how many women he could conquer. Had it not been for the shared experience between Faye and Zayn and their deeply rooted feelings, it was inevitable that she would be attracted to Lucius. Looking at Lucius with an indifferent expression, Faye did not feel any infatuation as she greeted him, “Pleased to meet you, Mr. Drakos.”A look of displeasure flashed past Lucius’s gaze for a moment when he noticed Faye’s apathy toward him. It was well-known in this social circle that he had lost count of how many married women wanted to strike up a relationship with him, but he gave no mind to their flattery. It was his first time meeting a woman who ignored him. With his arrogant temperament, Faye’s attitude had offended him. However, th

When Zayn heard the surprise in Faye’s voice, he was startled for a moment before he nodded his head and said, “Yes, I’ve just arrived downstairs. So, are you going to come down or should I head up?”Faye then said, “I’ll come down. Give me a moment.”“Alright.”After hanging up the phone, Faye then said to Lucius, “My husband’s arrived, so I’ll have to take my leave now, Mr. Drakos.”Lucius’s lips twitched slightly because Faye’s behavior towards him that night came as a shock to him. In fact, he even doubted his attractiveness once more.Chivalrous as a gentleman, he stood up and said, “Since your husband’s already arrived, why don’t you call him up so that we can get to know each other? Who knows? Your husband might want to join our circle.”When Lucius said that, there was a hit of teasing and playfulness in his expression. However, he was not lying because that was a fact. There were many legally married couples in their circle who had various activities of their own and wer

Zayn could not shake the feeling that something was not right after he hung up.In fact, Zayn had always been a person who was extremely observant. Therefore, when Faye first called him, he realized that she sounded as if she was hiding. Based on her tone alone, he could tell in a heartbeat that something was amiss. Plus, she sounded a little panicked. To him, it was off-putting to how calm and graceful she usually was, which meant that Faye wanted to leave that place. Furthermore, she could not leave on her own and needed someone to pick her up so that she could escape, thus she had called Zayn and especially emphasized for him to drive his car there.On top of that, he knew that Faye desperately needed him based on how pleasantly surprised she sounded.After waiting for two minutes, there was still no sign of Faye. Zayn decided not to waste any more time and directly went upstairs to look for her.The posh clubhouse was very luxuriously renovated. Just the parking in front of the

After Lucius said that, he fiercely threw the champagne glass in his hand onto the ground, causing a crisp clang as the glass shattered into pieces. At the same time, the dominance that he emanated throbbed even greater, causing Faye to jump in shock immediately before she grabbed Zayn’s clothes.In fact, quite a number of them were stunned by Lucius and did not dare to move an inch, causing the entire atmosphere to progress in Lucius’ favor.It would not be wrong to say that at that moment, Lucius had control over the situation while both Zayn and Faye would have to face his wrath and accept their punishment.In the eyes of an ordinary person, the domineering aura that Lucius was exuding was indeed very strong. However, to Zayn, it was nothing to be bothered about.“I’m sorry, but I really don’t know what this place is. Why don’t you enlighten me?” Zayn said with a faint smile.When Lucius noticed how Zayn was still able to smile despite being directly on death’s doorstep, he was
