To be more precise, David was aware that Jeff had been treating him leniently. He listened to the police officers whispering next to him as he stood to one side and watched his grandmother converse with the commanding officer.They had been discussing Jeff."It seems like he beat up about fifteen large guys by himself," one policeman muttered to the other. "You know, Gloria Santiago would be dead if it were not for him.""I swear! I know this little guy who came to report him does not know who Young Master Jeff is, so I feel bad for him. Additionally, I warned our recently hired team leader not to get too involved in the situation, but he disregarded my advice."David wiped his sweaty palms on his trousers, his nerves betraying him in tiny droplets of perspiration, a visible sign of his inner unease.Jeff's lack of interest was making his grandmother lose her temper, so he cast a sidelong glance at her."The Stevens Family is not small in Starry City. Keep dreaming if you believe you c
Even if it was not all, everyone recognized the woman who had just entered the police station wearing a hoodie and shorts. Apart from being a celebrity, she was a well-known lifesaver a few years ago. It seems that her appearance as that hasn't changed a bit.Madam Stevens did not realize what was going on until she saw Aliyah in front of the rude boy she had been dealing with.Her brows were raised subconsciously, and her eyes were nearly bulging out of their sockets."I apologize for arriving late, officer; I am this boy's guardian." Aliyah's excitement was palpable as she bared her teeth and attempted to pull Jeff's cheeks.Jeff had asked Smartie to bring something to Chris, but Aliyah ended up having it."Where's Chris?" Jeff inquired quietly, knowing that Aliyah would not be lenient with the Family.Aliyah smiled as she replied, "Oh, he has a meeting with Old Master Malfoy." She looked up at the policeman, her expression shifting as though she had not been the one pulling Jeff's
"Why did you have to offend someone from the Malfoy Family? Why?!" In the well-furnished room, the Old woman raised her voice, unable to sit down. She exhaled heavily as she paced back and forth across the living room.Her trembling hands clutched her phone. It took some effort for her phone not to fall from her grasp."Grandmother, I had no idea he was a Malfoy." David attempted to explain himself, but he was aware that his foolish behavior could not be justified by anything he said.He should have realized that something was not right about Jeff, but he chose to focus on his relationships with wealthy women.David held himself responsible for his incapacity to consider the ramifications of his actions. Now, not only will he face the consequences, but the Stevens family has also begun to suffer.The Malfoy Family had severed ties with them, and their stock price has been declining ever since. "You had no idea?!" Worry etched deep lines across Madam Stevens' forehead, creating a map
In anticipation of the Patriarch's arrival, there was a slight silence in the hall.Jeff glanced at the ancient hall; despite having visited the Malfoy Mansion several times, he had never been there before.The other members of the family kept looking at him, but none of them said anything. They'd realize they'd wronged the young man but it was too late to cry over spilled milk.And the boy remained unfazed, as if he had not been treated as trash by them and his father. He seems disinterested in everything.That was the number one thing for sure.Since this was the day Elias would be punished, Jeff did not want to be here. But Aliyah talked him into coming."Just sit beside me" Aliyah had said to him. "You don't have to greet anyone, not even Old Master Malfoy."And Jeff did as he was told, not even bothering to spare anyone a glance.After some minutes, the person they were all waiting for arrived.Old Master Malfoy appeared more frail and aged with his grey hair and creased face, bu
Some weeks later after exam, Aliyah and Jeff traveled to Arty City because of the Ferqin Fashion Show they were both invited too.They weren't alone this time as Liam also went back with them.It's been long since Liam and Jeff had a conversation. Because of too many projects, Liam got to busy and rarely see Jeff. They do talk on phone though. As they got down from the plane, the walked through the airport looking like celebrities. Even some people had to look at them twice before moving on."Home sweet home" Liam let down a breath with a smile, as he twirled around happily. "I somehow miss Arty City.""Don't lie, you didn't even want to part with your girlfriend" Jeff smirked, walking away from the excited Liam."Isn't it normal? I will miss her for sure" Liam made a sad face as he quickly run after Aliyah and Jeff. "Won't you miss Jamie too?"Jeff looked at Liam and pressed his lips together. He didn't answer that question but he instead said, "She's coming to Arty City in a few da
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
