It had been a couple of days since the incident. Killian had been occupied with work. His PR team managed to savage the situation but the deed had been done. Granted, he inherited some enemies through his father. But he had made his fair share of enemies as well.Whoever was after him, he couldn’t allow that to impact his company. The livelihood and careers of his employees couldn’t be toyed with.Mr. Zane had been handed over to the authorities but Killian extended compassion to his family. He ensured his son got all that wanted needed to regain his health.Some raps of knock sounded on the door, diverting his attention on the documents before him. Once again, the models threatened to sue him. He knew how to deal with them as he had no intention of going to the court, not for the lack of confidence in winning but because he had bigger fishes to fry.He would compensate them greatly. It would be their loss if they insisted on going to the court.“Come in.” He said, dryly.“America is

Chapter 32 “Let’s leave the boys. Finally, I am not the only woman stuck with these noobs.” Francine said, letting out a huge sigh of relief. Killian scoffed, “You are hardly a woman.” Francine pinned Killian with a glare. “Well, then, Penelope can be my date tonight. Sorry, babe.” She batted her eyelashes at him innocently. She pulled Penelope along with her. Killian and Freddy could only watch helplessly. There were two hot women on the loose. “Are you just going to let them go?” Killian stared at their backs worriedly. “I trust my woman.” Freddy shrugged. “Why are you worried? Penelope isn’t your woman, is she?” He continued, looking at him pointedly. Freddy hoped for an answer but instead Killian simply grunted. *** “I bet you have a lot of friends to stand in as a bridesmaid.” Penelope said, trying to ease the awkwardness. Who could possibly make a stranger their bridesmaid? “Uhm… Penelope… Can I call you Penny?” Francine asked. They were both walking along the beach sh

The woman led them to a table with a beautiful view. It stood alone in a corner, giving some air of privacy. He pulled the chair out for Penelope and settled into his thereafter.“Here is the menu.” He passed a menu each to them. Call on me when you have decided. I will get you some tea in the meantime.” The woman said and attended to other tables.The language was foreign to her. “Uhm… What are you having?” she peeped over her menu and asked Killian.“It is written in Mandarin.” He pointed out and read the menu out fluently. She settled for steaks while he had a traditional dish.“That was a delicious meal.” Penelope complimented the woman.The woman held a hand to her heart. “Thank you. We will to create moments for our customers.” She said. Then, an idea popped in her head. “How about a picture of you two, huh?”Killian wanted to object but Penelope beat him to it with a mischievous smile. “Sure!” She squealed. If he was willing to play the couple card, she would see it to the very

“The Xing diamond is one of a kind. I heard it would be put on auction today.” A woman gleefully told the two women dressed exquisitely next to her next to her. One of them gasped, “Xing Fei? My husband must get it for me. I want it for myself.” Her eyes dimmed with greed. The other two women snickered. They all wanted it for themselves, too. They quickly dispersed to persuade their husbands. Penelope walked by them to look for any familiar face. Killian had sent Francine to inform her that he needed to sort out his stolen items. Her phone was in the car, too. So, there was no one to accompany her to the auction. Instead of the dress Killian chose, she settled for another one at the last minute. It was the last dress that caught her eyes right before leaving the mall. The golden gown flowed behind her, pooling around her feet. The bodice had a drape over her bust with tiny straps to hold her backless dress. A draped rested on her butt to conceal her behind with a little tease. She

Something gnawed her at insides. She held her tummy and tried to ease it with her fingers.“Is this some kind of sick joke?” Penelope asked warily.Killian maintained his expression till a smile creeped over his lips. “Got you!” He said and let out a small laugh.Penelope let out a huge sigh of relief.“You should have seen your face.” He pointed out mockingly.Penelope wasn’t sure whether to feel relieved or be offended for being mocked. She was glad to see that it was some silly joke. But something on his face played it believingly without an iota of doubt.“Let’s have our seats.” He guided Penelope to their seats which were next to Francine’s and Freddy’s. Their seats were at the front row, just on the opposite side of Jared and his friends.“Right about time.” Francine said as soon as their butts hit the seats.The auction started for several items till it was time for the ultimate item of the night. The item was in a glass. Reflection bounced on it. It looked out of this world.“
