With worry lines on her face, Rachael appeared exhausted. The refined lady Jeff had known seemed to have vanished from her appearance. Her eyes appeared swollen and red, as though she had shed tears.Jeff hesitated for a moment, he had no desire to see her, but he knew he couldn't just ignore her presence. With a tone that was cold and uncaring, he turned to face Liam and asked, "How did she know I was coming back to Arty City?""How would I know?" Liam returned with a cold face. Jeff looked at him as though he were accusing him, even though he knew Jeff was just asking. Jeff came to a stop in front of her, his expression aloof and chilly. "What do you want?" he asked.For a brief moment, Rachael wavered, her eyes darting tensely. She leaned forward then and said, "I need to know why you are trying to get me out of the Hemsworth family," in a low voice.Jeff frowned, his eyes narrowing in confusion. "What are you talking about?" he asked."The videos," Rachael whispered. "The ones you
Since Jeff stayed at home for a year before going to school, most of his classmates were in their second year.Jeff was presumably still hiding, listening to Rachael's words, and trying to be the ideal son that she desired when they all completed their common entrance examination.Since they graduated from high school, Jeff had not attended any of their reunions. He might even have slipped some people's memories.The location for the reunion was a place Jeff knew. He had been there before but it was some time ago.Chris had dropped him at the entrance of the restaurant before saying, "Have fun with your friends, and stop being cold-faced all the time."Before Jeff had a chance to respond, he drove off.The reunion was scheduled at seven and Jeff got there thirty minutes past seven. He had on a pair of black pants and a black leather jacket.With the exception of his stunning blue eyes and hair, everything about him was black. As he received the private room number from Liam, he headed
Of course, Jeff would never forget who the huge guy was, Darren Laylord. He was the guy who Jeff had a basketball match with back in high school.What led to the match was something Jeff never thought he would intervene in that day.Darren was a well-known basketball player in school, a huge guy, and also a bully. His parents were rich and quite well-known in Arty City. He was rude and arrogant to everyone, including the teachers.No one could really dare to offend Darren back then.If the Greenfield Family(Liam's Family) was said to be connected to the Scavo Family in Starry City, Darren's Family was said to be connected with huge forces of Swillevin.So no one really dared to offend him. When Darren was bullying a female junior back then, no one could help the girl, and was watching Darren's cruelty without saying a word.Jeff couldn't watch, so he intervened and asked Darren to play a basketball match against him. He said if Darren won, Darren could do whatever he wanted to do wit
A fight match?Everyone believed Jeff was losing his mind. They were trying to help him by begging Darren and now he wants to fight with the man that has been in the Military for over two years.Not to mention that Darren appears larger than him. Even though Jeff is skilled in combat, there is no way for him to prevail."Are you trying to court death?" Darren questioned, a chuckle escaping his lips. "You want to fight with me? It seems like you are forgetting something, Jeff. I make the decision about when and if to fight you. You are a nobody to me. Do you really think you can outcompete me now that you have become somewhat famous? Your Family members are still farmers though."Being friends with Darren was challenging because of his excessive pride. Most of his friends are people who want to take something from him.They are all just putting up with him because they have no other option; none of them likes him."You are still a coward" Jeff stated, shifting his gaze from him. He tur
"Adrian really invited a lot of people to his show," Aliyah said as she scrolled through her phone, checking the pictures of some celebrities. "It's been long since I've been to a show like this. I'm kinda excited. I might add some clothes to my wardrobe too!" Tonight was the day, the day most of the celebrities had been waiting for. These celebrities don't include celebrities from New Zinland but celebrities from other parts of the world.Ferqin Fashion Show was one of the fashion shows that most celebrities don't always want to miss.Even though the headquarters was in Arty City, the location didn't stop the invited ones from attending.Aliyah sat in the car with Jeff in one of the most expensive cars ever known. Her hair was neatly styled and the black dress she was wearing greatly accentuated her curves.Pearls and diamonds were embroidered on the sleeveless black dress, revealing her fair chest and fair body.Aliyah was quite a known person, just that her field was different fro
Atlas Grador was wearing a very formal suit, contrasting with his bad guy appearance Jeff saw the other day.Jeff wasn't lying when he said he looked kinda like Atlas Grador because right now he could see the familiarities again.Jeff felt a ball of emotion constricting in his stomach. He can't be what he's thinking about, right?Atlas is from the Grador Family. Their looking alike must be a coincidence, right?From what Jeff heard, Atlas was an actor and also a model. Getting invited to this fashion show isn't too surprising."We have met before right?" Atlas broke the silence between them. The show was about to begin. "I remember seeing you.""I remember seeing you too" Jeff answered, not shifting his gaze from the stage. "You know, I wondered what you were doing there that day."Hearing this, Atlas moved his gaze from where he was looking and fixed them on Jeff. "And what are you talking about? We only met that day, right?"He seemed to scoff as he spoke."Billy told me a lot about
Jeff was asleep when he heard some strange movements in the Villa. He flickered his eyes open, standing up from the bed.As he made his way to the living room, he noticed Aliyah red in the eyes and on one of the sofas.She had undoubtedly started drinking again because Jeff could smell the aroma of alcohol as he walked up to her. "Go to your room" Jeff didn't bother to ask her what was wrong. "Let me help you."Without saying anything, Aliyah sniffed and looked up, tears welling up in her eyes. She lifted her right hand and gave it a vigorous shake.Something resembling a piece of paper appeared to be held between her fingers.She called out, "Jeff," sobbing even more. She let out an even louder cry, and her whole body shook. "He claimed that although he despises the Malfoy family, he does not hate me. But I'm part of the Malfoy."Hearing her words, Jeff knew who she was talking about."I mistakenly believed he was just being stubborn, but it is true—he truly despises us." She sobbed
"Is there anything I can not do here?" Jeff posed the question with a blank expression. Because he was sleeping when Aliyah came home, he was still in his pajamas he forgot to change."Err... Mr. Grador, sorry for the disturbance, I would leave now" Duane turned to Mr. Grador.Mr. Grador ignored him, revealing himself further as he stepped out of the room. "Hey boy, you must be Mr. Malfoy's son. "How are you doing?"The man in the robe caught Jeff's attention. Mr. Grador appeared to be among the prosperous CEOs at Swillevin, based on his hearsay. However, he was doing something shady and was only using business to cover up."Can't you answer?" Growing enraged, Duane hoped Jeff would not make him look foolish. The fact that he saw him here still bothers him.There had to be something planned by that brat."Leave him, teenage boys like him are going through their phase. It's understandable" Mr. Grador was ecstatically smiling. He wasn't even annoyed. "Why don't we meet tomorrow for din
