After saying those words, Cedric fled the scene left the four of them alone. His mind was in shambles, and he felt like everything he had known were all just lies. He had loved Scarlett with all of his heart when they were young, and he was starting to question if their love was genuine back then too. "Cedric!" Scarlett called after him, but he didn't look back. She called for his name once more before attempting to run after him; however, Kian held onto her arm and pulled her back. "Stop, Scarlett," he said. "You've done enough." Scarlett tried moving away from his grip. "What are you talking about? I need to run after him. Let go," she said through gritted teeth. "Scarlett!" Kian exclaimed in such a loud voice that all of them were shocked. He was usually the happy-go-lucky person that took everything as a joke, but right now, he looks so serious that it's quite frightening. It's really true that it's most scary when an unserious person suddenly becomes angry. "Stop fuckin

Zeth entered the office with a huge smile on his face. Despite being restless because of last night's sexual activities, he can't help but feel energized because of what happened. Adriel truly is his greatest source of strength. Being with her even triumphed over sleep and rest. Jo entered the office not long after Zeth came in. She paused in her tracks when she saw her boss leisurely sipping from his cup of coffee with a smile on his face. "What's with you?" she asked as she placed some papers down on the table. "Hmm?" Zeth hummed dreamily. "Nothing. I'm just happy." "Is it because of Adriel?" she asked. "You already know the answer to that. It's always because of Adriel," he proudly said, sitting down on his chair. Jo playfully rolled her eyes at Zeth's cheekiness. However, she feels happy that the once cold young master has now turned into a warm and loving person. Adriel and Zenon truly are the best things that ever happened to his life. "What's with these papers?" Zeth

Zeth slapped himself awake for the twentieth time today. It was early in the morning, and yet he was feeling so restless already. He didn’t even get to talk with Adriel last night since he was so sleepy. He’s usually energetic and snappy; however, these days, he feels like he always just wants to lie down in bed. He doesn’t know whether it’s because of Jo’s absence, but he pointed that out to be the culprit. Ever since she left three days ago and Sara was the only one who could help him, he’s seen a change in his sleeping habits since then. “Sara,” he called for his new assistant. Sara came into the room with a sweet smile on her face. She was yet again wearing another revealing outfit, but Zeth was too tired to reprimand her. “Yes, sir?” she asked, walking over to his chair. “Bring me another cup of coffee,” he said. Sara smirked. “Are you sure, sir? This is your third cup of coffee, and it’s only morning.” “Don’t ask any more questions,” he shook his head. “Just bring it to m

Aria shook her hands in nervousness. She was standing right outside Cedric's and Kian's apartment, ready to bare her soul in front of the person that she liked. She decided that it was better to get it out of her chest than to let her feelings rot inside her heart. She thought about this a lot, and she decided that taking the risk and being rejected would be more bearable than having to hide her feelings for god knows how long. She also decided to confront him about what she saw in the club and if it's true that he had changed his past habits because of her. She raised her fist up to knock on the door, but it suddenly opened before her skin could even make contact with the wood. Her eyes widened in surprise when she saw Cedric standing right in front of her. Cedric froze when he saw Aria with her fist up in the air. Aria cleared her throat and brought her fist down. She looked away from his eyes and tucked her hair behind her ears. "Umm, sorry. Wrong door," she was about to l

“What are we doing here?” Cedric asked Kian, who was currently dragging him to Zeth’s office. “Aria told me to check on something,” he said. “We have work, Kian,” Cedric deadpanned. “It’s still early in the morning. We can manage,” Kian said. “Besides, Aria told me she won’t give me any kisses until I do this one for her, so….” Cedric rolled his eyes. “Must be nice.” “It is nice,” Kian teasingly smiled. “I have someone to hold after a tiring day; there’s always someone who greets me in the morning, and the best part is that she gives me so much joy and pleasure—“ “Alright, alright,” Cedric cut her off. “You don’t need to go that far. I’m already jealous as it is,” he muttered under his breath. “Let’s go, bro. We haven’t seen Zeth in ages too. He also still doesn’t know that you're moving to France.” “Fine,” Cedric caved in. “But we have to be back by lunch.” “Of course,” Kian smiled. “I’ll be having lunch with my baby Aria by then.” “Alright, maybe you should just do this on
