It was during my fourth visit to the restroom that someone stopped me. The man in question was cute, with big blue eyes and a baby face. He had a feminine body, one that looked so good in his suit. Before I married Stein, this was my type. He tucked some strands of his black hair at the back of his ear when I raised a brow.“Excuse me?”He blushed.Frowning, I turned away from the strange young man, meaning to step around him, but he moved with me, blocking my path with an apologetic smile.“I'm sorry, I didn't mean to startle you,” he apologised in a soft and almost hesitant voice. “I'm Mark. I work with your father-in-law's legal team. I just… I wanted to congratulate you on the marriage.”“Thank you,” I said, keeping my tone polite but final. “It was a pleasure meeting you, Mark.”Oddly enough, I felt nothing for him. I had been noticing this for a while now. I no longer have any desire for cute men, or any other man. Whatever Stein used on me must be that strong. I made to walk p

The music shifted to something slower and more intimate, so I pulled the stranger close to me. He was an excellent dancer; otherwise, it would have been a damn awkward dance.“I'm Kohl,” he said, introducing himself with a smile. “Stein,” I responded, while watching Kai, who was still looking at us with an indifferent look on his face. I couldn't even tell whether he was angry or not. His expression was just flat. “I know. I've heard so much about you. It's such a pity I came too late, but…” He bit his lower lip when I looked at him with a frown. “You don't mind getting to know me well, do you? You might be married but —”“No.”He frowned. “What?”I held him close. “I'm not a cheat. I only love one man, and that's my husband.”I glanced towards the man in question. Kai's face was blank. He locked his gaze with mine for a few seconds before he turned and walked away. He walked straight for the side entrance, the one that led to the exit. My feet stopped moving.“Something wrong?” Koh

STEIN“Are these all?” I asked Frank as I went through the documents he placed on my desk.He took a step back and nodded. “Yes, sir. I got every legal document I could get my hands on.” He pointed to the first one on the stack. “That's information on all the stocks he bought from Aries.”“Aries?” I rubbed my jaw. “How much did he invest?”“A billion, sir.”“A billion?”Seems he invested the money I gave him. “How's it?” “It's moving rapidly, sir. In a month, he'll get four times the amount he invested in. And if he still invests that, it'll keep multiplying.”We can't have that. “Buy the company.” He blinked. “Sir… Sir?” “Are you deaf?”He gulped and shook his head. “No… No, sir!”“Good.” I picked up another file and read through it. “This, too. Buy all the companies he has shares in and close them all.”He froze. “But….”I narrowed my eyes. “I will do it, sir!” “Good.” I opened my top drawer and got out a brown envelope. I tossed it on my desk, and he reached for it. “Expose t

STEINI stared at my phone, waiting for it to ring. The news must have gotten to him now. Since I was the first person he called when he saw that camera in his office, I didn't doubt I would be the one he would call for his new problem. Well, the joke was on me. He didn't call, and when I tried calling, he didn't take my calls. With the camera uninstalled, I could only rely on the tracker and the calls he made.Most of them were to his dad, who didn't take his calls. He also spoke with his lawyers and a tracker. It was amusing how he sought help from others when all it would have taken was a phone call from me to get everything back on track. Not that I'm going to help him do that.I was, after all, the one who started this. It wouldn't be entertaining if I solved everything for him without getting what I wanted.When he didn't call until evening, I drove to his office. He was still there, since the tracker hadn't moved an inch since this afternoon. However, when I went to his office,

KAIWhat would I have done if I hadn't married Stein? I had thought he was only good because of his inheritance. Who would have guessed that I would get help from him when my dad refused to extend one?Just like he promised, by morning, all the photos were gone, the receipts too, wiped out like it didn't dominate the Internet for a freaking whole day. I had a restless night, thinking everything would become worse by morning, only to wake up to the best news ever. Edward had called a few hours after I finally dozed off to tell me the good news. “Stein!” I called out to him as I leapt from the bed. It wasn't that graceful since I don't have a lithe body, but I didn't care. I stepped out of my room, only to be welcomed by a very delicious aroma. Sniffing, I made my way to the kitchen. Stein was standing by the stove, with his back to me, flipping something. I walked over to him and wrapped my hands around his waist. He stiffened at the touch before he relaxed when he realised I was t
