All Chapters of She Was His Obsession. Now She's Everyone's: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

By the time lunch ends, the multi-million dollar contract is secured.As they pack up their files, Iris suddenly looks up. "Would you like to go somewhere else for a drink?"Catching the lingering melancholy in Iris's eyes, Luna doesn't hesitate. "Lead the way."An hour later, inside a dimly lit, authentic Japanese izakaya hidden down a quiet alley, Iris orders a sweet plum wine for Luna."Just this?" Luna laughs softly, eyeing the weak drink. "You are severely underestimating me."While she isn't exactly a heavyweight, years of socializing and attending endless galas abroad have built up a respectable tolerance. She is vastly different from the fragile, sheltered girl Ethan used to strictly monitor."I heard you aren't much of a drinker," Iris explains carefully. Honestly, she is entirely terrified to let the woman Ethan Caldwell is obsessively protecting get completely wasted on her watch."That was a lifetime ago.""Alright," Iris relents with a slight smirk. "Then you can match me

"Mr. and Mrs. Shen," Luna greets, sliding the folder across the boardroom table. "The final contract.""If Iris has already verified it, there are no issues," Mr. Shen dismisses. Without a single glance at the multi-million-dollar terms, the notoriously paranoid CEO simply uncaps his pen and scrawls his signature across the dotted line.Luna suppresses a knowing smirk.Stepping out of the towering glass building, the crisp afternoon air hits her—along with a deeply irritating sight."Afternoon, beautiful."Alex is casually leaning against the hood of her parked Bentley, flashing a shameless grin as he waves at her.Luna's previously triumphant mood instantly sours.This boy is truly like a lingering ghost."I am not currently accepting applications for a chauffeur," Luna snaps, aggressively shoving him away from her expensive paint job. "Crawl back to wherever you came from.""I brought you flowers," Alex counters smoothly, pulling a massive, perfectly arranged bouquet of roses from b

The words hang in the heavy air, fragile and devastating."You want to throw us away over a minor setback like this?" Marcus clicks his tongue in sheer frustration, his large hands reaching out to grip her shoulders. He forces her to turn back and face him. "My mother's opinions belong entirely to her. My decisions will never change just because my family decides to throw a tantrum."He gently wipes the dampness from her cheek with his thumb, his touch surprisingly tender. "Stop crying. Even if they permanently freeze every single one of my projects, I am not helpless. I have more than enough personal savings to comfortably spoil you for the rest of our lives."Luna buries her face into his chest. "But you love photography so much. What will you do if you can never secure another project?"Marcus wraps his muscular arms tightly around her.He knows his parents' ruthless tactics well. If he refuses to break up with her, no one in the elite circles will dare to risk their own businesses

Luna turns. She walks straight toward Marcus, seamlessly slipping her arm through his.The jacket draped over her shoulders is a blazing red flag in Marcus's eyes."Am I interrupting something?" he asks, his gaze bypasses Luna to lock directly onto Nolan.Nolan freezes for a second. He only knew about Luna's messy, complicated history with Ethan Caldwell, and he had no idea she was currently involved with Marcus Vane.The sudden realization stirs a twisted, unidentifiable knot of jealousy deep in his chest."You were the one who insisted on waiting in the car," Luna murmurs, intentionally softening her tone to pacify him. "It isn't as if I forbade you from coming inside."Honestly, Marcus is becoming increasingly difficult to manage, and a part of her is genuinely tempted to just drop her gentle facade."Are you two close?" Marcus demands, finally looking at her."We have collaborated on a few projects before," Nolan answers with a faint smirk. "You didn't know?""I don't have the fre

Meanwhile, up in the sprawling master suite, the air is thick with heat and sin."Marcus..."A low, breathy murmur spills from the woman's swollen red lips, causing the man above her to freeze instantly.Nathan's jaw clenches, his large hand coming up to firmly cover Luna's mouth. He refuses to hear his brother's name spoken in his bed.Luna turns her head, dodging his palm. The burning fog of the drug has actually faded quite a while ago, leaving her mind razor-sharp. Then, beneath the heavy sounds of their ragged breathing, her ears catch the faint beep of the penthouse's electronic front door lock.Reaching up, she winds her slender arms tightly around Nathan's neck, pulling him closer.Down in the foyer, Stella steps nervously onto the marble, her anxiety spiking as she follows Marcus inside.After pulling the street surveillance footage near the nightclub and discovering that their brother had inexplicably taken Luna away, they rushed straight here."Marcus, should we really be b
