John Lloyd And Shaina Lock の小説・ストーリー

Shaina frowned and looked at Rex. “It’s just for now, please. I’m leaving ‘cause Mr. Travis has a project that I’m handling. I don’t know how long I’ll be at the company’s branch in Hong Kong. Besides of a good opportunity he gave me, I’ll also be temporarily free from your cousin.” Shaina’s eyebrows twitches even more. In the tone of Rex’s speech, it looks like Lovely is choking him. “Promise, I won’t bother you again if you really don’t want to see me anymore.” Rex’s almost begged Shaina. Until now, he does not believe that she is married.

The one they had missed for Shaina’s unsealing was already gone, and now another one had arrived in a blur. This time, everything was ready. Sendro and Laclam were both there to witness the ritual, with Matthias beside them and Shaina's parents standing close as well. It had been almost two years since Shaina’s ability was sealed. Now she stood in the middle of the lunar fountain, waiting for the moon to rise at its highest point. Liliana stood beside her, holding her mother’s hand. “Mommy, everything will be alright,” she said softly. “I can do this. I promise you.”

“My boss is not a celebrity.” “Then make him the leading man in your heart!” RJ squealed. But instead of laughing, her mood only turned worse. Argh, Shaina! Don’t stare at your stupid boss! Yes, he’s handsome. Yes, he smells good. But don’t fall, girl. He’s trouble. And in her mind, she knew facing Lukas Vergara today wouldn’t be easy. Shaina stepped into the elevator fast when she saw it was empty. Perfect. She wanted some quiet time before going to war again. On her way to the building, she had been thinking of all the possible problems waiting for her today.

"Lloyd doesn't actually like me. He… only brought me along b-because he wants me to serve him." Jade's words came out in fragments. Although Nina didn't believe her, she gradually released her grip. "I know what he's up to, but I won't let him succeed. As long as I'm here, you won't be his woman." Jade felt a chill run down her spine at Nina's words. Lloyd had brought her along to be his woman? A wave of nausea hit her stomach. She would rather die than be with Lloyd. "You'd better keep an eye on Lloyd. He's been interested in me for a while now. You never know. When you're not looking, he might…" Jade's words were cut off by Nina's outburst. "Dream on! I'll never let you get what you want!"

"Miss Lloyd?" Seeing the newcomer, Vincent was momentarily stunned. Anyone who followed the financial news in South City would recognize the elegant and beautiful woman before them. It was the one and only Serena Lloyd—the CEO of the Lloyd Corporation. Due to the lack of system updates, Liam's spouse was still listed as Serena. When Vincent made the phone call earlier, he had wondered how Liam's spouse shared the same name as the president of the Lloyd Corporation. However, he never imagined that Liam's wife would actually be Serena.

"Clyde, I can't continue this. Posing. It's breaking me." Clyde turned to her, his eyes sharp. "Then stop. You aren't obliged to play along with the plans of Sharon. You deserve better than this, Lily." Her eyes welled with tears, but before she could say a word in response, a voice came from behind them. "Well, isn't this touching? They both turned to see Sharon standing a few feet away, her arms crossed and a smirk on her lips. “You’ve done well, Clyde. My husband is convinced you’re the perfect fiancé for Lily.”
