Christian’s words deeply hurt Lia and she was enraged that he didn’t even try to call her after she abruptly left Danny’s place. She was guilty of cheating on Christian, but it was before confronting him. Now that Christian wanted a break from her, Lia felt free to date or hook up with anyone. She picked up her phone from the nightstand and messaged Tommy Blenth to confirm her trip with him. “Hey there, this is Lia. I hope you recognized me!” Lia texted. “Of course, I never forget passionate nights with gorgeous girls. (winks)” “Really?” Lia blushed. “Yup! Anyway, did you think about my proposal?” “What proposal?” She played dumb. “Will you come to Miami with me?” “I think I can join you,” she said. “Great! I’ll book our tickets.” “Okay!” Lia texted and tossed her phone on the bed with a sheepish smile on her face. *** Mishka lunged over at Christian to get the letter from him because Vera never wanted Christian to know about her real reasons and hate his father. Also, Mish

Standing before the dresser, Mishka was trying to attach the hooks of her black shimmery blouse for the nth time and groaned in frustration. She called Agatha to help her when Christian walked into the room unannounced. “Ah… Agatha, finally you’re here! Can you please fix this for me?” Mishka left her blouse open. Christian’s breath got hitched, the fantastic view rendered him speechless, and it made him forget his anger momentarily. When Agatha didn’t come forward to help or answer her, Mishka looked up in the mirror, and horror washed over her, witnessing Christian behind at the door in a crisp blue suit with a white shirt underneath. She screamed loudly covering herself with a bathrobe turned to him, “Can’t you knock before coming inside, Christian Knight?” She gritted her teeth. “Right, I’m sorry!” Christian gulped, looking away. “You should’ve locked the door! Anyone could just walk in!” He glared at her and turned to leave. “This is my house! I can do whatever I want.” Mishk

Following instructions from Rose, nearly two hours later, Mishka was walking on the ramp like a supermodel, and Tommy, leaning at the pillar behind the stage, was watching her with his keen eyes. He was sure that he has seen more gorgeous women in the industry he works in, but he found this new model different, her sexy dimpled smile when she tripped a few times because of high heels, her long dark brown wavy hair, her big brown eyes, the way she was carrying herself, everything attracted him, and he felt a sudden urge to possess her body. “Tommy, over here! Let’s do the rehearsals and then get ready for the show.” Rose waved at Tommy, and he walked in their direction, maintaining his stare at Mishka. Mishka and Tommy walked back to their initial position and walked together on the ramp, Tommy slipped his hand in Mishka’s waist as they reached the bottom. Mishka flashed her gorgeous smile, looking straight into the cameras. But she felt him making a circle on her back. Her eyes snap

Mishka glanced on her right and was stunned to find Christian in a dashing blue suit with a white silk shirt underneath. Christian glanced at Mishka with a mischievous smile and winked at her, leaning into her. “Focus on the show, not on me!” He said in his deep voice and Mishka blinked her eyes with a smile that was finally reaching her eyes. They both turned their head to the cameras and gave their best shots. It was a majestic sight to behold. London’s most trending couple were setting the ramp on fire with their sizzling appearances, and the crowd was going gaga over them. The crowd cheered for them as the show ended. Lia was utterly shocked and fumed in anger, looking at the power couple. In the past, she asked Christian a few times to do some modelling assignment with her, but he bluntly refused, and now he was on the ramp, holding his wife possessively. Lia left the auditorium throwing daggers in their direction, while Jake suppressed his pent-up frustration staring at them.

Christian’s eyes snapped back at Maya when her words clearly registered in his mind and Danny’s face lost all colours. “Are we talking about Lia Smith?” He asked cocking his eyebrow, while Maya was busy sipping her espresso. “Yes, who else? We were about to shoot together for Star Magazine’s upcoming edition, but she backed out at the last moment and breached the contract.” Maya looked up at Christian and answered. “Why did she back out?” Christian asked. “It’s obvious, dude, she wanted to spend some quality time alone with Tommy in Miami,” Maya said, rolling her eyes. “She even paid a penalty to Star Magazine. Can you believe that?” “Might be she is just a friend of Tommy. They belong to the same industry.” Danny said, sensing Christian’s emanating rage, and he feared him bursting on Maya. “No, Danny, trust me! She is dating Tommy.” Maya said again in a confident tone, and Christian stood up abruptly. “Let me check why Mishka is taking so much time?” Christian said calmly with a
