"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
With his lips pressed together, Professor Paul tried to give the young boy some water, but his trembling hands would not let the water stay in his grasp."Why did you keep this from me?" Jeff questioned, placing the glass of water down. He was in no mood to drink water. "It was necessary. There is no other method to keep you safe."By keeping me in the dark? Are you aware of the extent of my pain upon seeing the picture? Do you know how I was doubting you when I found out you told Aliyah that you hated the Malfoy Family, do you...""Calm down Jeff, things happen for a reason" Professor Paul cut in, sitting down across him. He clamped his hands together, his gaze fixated on the boy. "I apologize for keeping things from you, but I promise there was a purpose behind it. You underestimate how frightening this world can be.""You really believe that I am unaware of how much scarier the world is? Don't give me that bullshit!"Professor Paul was aware that Jeff would continue to hold him ac
Jeff got down from the car, his eyes on the tall building. He was wearing a formal suit, looking more dapper than usual.He took a deep breath as he got closer to the building and made an effort to control his feelings.After learning the truth, he knew he had to be better in some ways.Even though Duane had threatened him, he really had no intention of attending today's dinner. However, after finding out what he had been dying to know, he made the decision to meet the man.They seemed to have been waiting for him for more than thirty minutes, as he arrived a little later than expected. With a chilly expression, Jeff headed for the private chamber.Who would have guessed he would be meeting Mr. Grador?"I'm sorry I'm late everyone!" Drawing a chair next to his father, Jeff exclaimed with fake enthusiasm.Atlas Grador stood next to Mr. Grador, and his expression suggested that he had been coerced into coming."Something has surfaced that I find impossible to ignore." With a slight smil
Because he still had to accompany Aliyah to the Ferqin Gallery's exclusive auction, Jeff did not spend a lot of time with Atlas. Aliyah appeared unable to remember the events of the previous day. Though she could not remember anything, she remembered that she had a conversation with Professor Paul.When Aliyah went to the bathroom, she coincidentally met Professor Paul. She boldly asked him out once more, but he turned her down. Yet again."Why did you keep turning me down? What did I do wrong?" That evening, Aliyah had had enough and let out a loud cry that stopped Professor Paul in his tracks. "You ought to be happy that someone is making the effort to ask you out. Why are you doing like this to me?!"Professor Paul remained silent. "I'm sorry."Then he walked away. But as he was walking, he did not notice something falling out of his pocket.Aliyah ended up picking up the picture, only to receive the biggest shock of her life.How could Rebecca turn out to be someone close to the
"What are you saying, Mr. Ferqin?!"Laurette was stunned by what she had heard. Her cheeks flared up in anger and disbelief. The fact that people were taking pictures was what irritated her the most. She's definitely going to find herself trending tomorrow!Adrian called, "Laurette," his voice as serene as the sea. Had it not been for his words, you would have assumed he was talking about his romantic feelings for someone. "Do not let me put you through any more humiliation; let them escort you out.""Is it possible that he caused you to do this? You have not treated me this way in the years that we have known each other; how are you able to act this way in front of the public now?" Laurette yelled, not caring about the loudness of her voice.Adrian did not even bat an eyelid before giving a knowing look to the security guard, who immediately led Laurette out."I apologize for the disruption," Adrian said, smiling at Jeff. "Long time no see."Jeff responded with a smile. After they've
