The Romanov Diadem: Oblast Dmitrovka 46. You're All I Need
'Why would Grandpa suspect Papa David? Even though Papa is his son.'Viktor thought hard. He never thought that he and Gennadius had the same thoughts about Davidoff."Because I always suspected that he had hidden cooperation with Maksim."Gennadius raised his face as he expressed what was in his head just now."Why would Grandpa suspect that? Do you have some evidence?"Gennadius shook his head."Because I once caught the two of them discussing shares in Konstantin's family company.""Stocks?!"Viktor remembered when Zoya once said that she had 10% shares in the Konstantin family."Yes, Viktor. Therefore, you must control this family company and let David go on business trips to other cities!"'I know that for sure. Because Grandpa has given you the task of controlling the Konstantin Co company from the start.' Viktor monologued to himself."Surely you still remember, don't you, why I wanted you involved?"Viktor nodded as he agreed."Of course, Grandpa.""When I first saw the potent

The following days, Xandrova went to college with Fang because Viktor was busy in his office. Xandrova understood that, but not her heart. Viktor felt guilty, but he couldn't leave his work. "Zoya, I feel you. I'll pick you up. What time will you be home?" Now, Viktor is in his room with Andriy. He calls his wife, who has been sulking for the past few days. The significant age gap has always exercised Viktor's patience in dealing with his wife. "No need. I'll go home with Fang, as usual." With a slightly irritated tone, Xandrova answered Viktor's question. "Zoya, I know you're mad at me because I've failed to keep my promises several times. However, this Friday night I'll take you to visit a café where I'll ask your opinion about it." Viktor was always gentle with Xandrova. Yes, he didn't want the image he had built up to crumble over such a trivial matter. "Café?" Xandrova asked in disbelief. "Yes. The new café on Nevsky Prospekt. Would you like to go there wi
The Romanov Diadem: Oblast Dmitrovka 1. Retrospect
"Bozhe!" Bozhe is ... bozhe. Gosh! It's a Russian language, by the way.A noise from the family room woke up a 14-year-old boy who was sleeping. He opened his eyes wide, then sat hugging his knees on the bed. His blue eyes also hinted at fear.Before the boy had time to calm himself, the noise came again with the voice of an elderly, who he believed was his grandfather."Chto proischodit?" It has the meaning, "What's going on?" It's also Russian language. Please don't get confused.The boy lowered his voice. He tried to regulate the rhythm of his heart, which was beating faster and faster.His body shook violently from the moment he heard the first noise."Isn't that Grandpa Vladimir's voice?! My room is so close to the family room that it often makes me suffer from hearing adults arguing!"After exclaiming to himself, the boy got out of bed barefoot. He opened the wardrobe and looked for his coat while glancing at the clock on the wall, which never stopped ticking."It's 02.00 in the

"Viktor, let me help you!"Xandrova looked at Viktor worriedly. Her beautiful face looked paler than usual."No, Zoya!"The sentence that Viktor had just spoken, of course, surprised Xandrova. For Viktor Gusev Konstantin, bearing his wife's surname was not a burden, as most people told him. However, it's not something to be proud of either."Why? I'm your wife, right?"Xandrova frowned as she waited for Viktor to answer her question."Yes! Precisely! Because you're my wife. I won't let you do heavy things like carrying these suitcases, Zoya."Viktor's baritone voice made Xandrova smile. Not because of his distinctive voice. It was because the meaning implied in the sentence Viktor just said was always able to hypnotize her and make her a valuable woman in his eyes."Viktor, Ya lyublyu vas!" Meaning, "I love you!"Xandrova briefly stood on tiptoe, then pressed her rosy lips to the surface of Viktor's cheek."Let's just go into our room, shall we?"Xandrova exclaimed after surprising Vi
The Romanov Diadem: Oblast Dmitrovka 3. Maksim Smirnov Romanov
"Hello, good afternoon. Who are you looking for, My Lady?"Viktor was surprised when he opened his in-laws' hotel room door. He saw the figure of a woman standing with her back to him. Viktor managed to control himself, and then he smiled.Viktor took a few steps forward. The woman turned her body. How surprised Viktor was when the woman took off her sunglasses."Viktor, what took you so long? Did you know that I'm exhausted of waiting for you?"Viktor smiled as he took the hand of the woman who turned out to be Xandrova. He stared at her from head to toe."You are absolutely perfect, Zoya!"Viktor exclaimed with his eyes sparkling. Xandrova never expected this sweet treatment from her husband. It made her blush."Viktor, who's coming? Please invite our guest to come in, and don't let him be disappointed!"Galana's voice boomed from inside the hotel room. Viktor laughed a little at that.'Who did mom think came to visit them?' Viktor wondered in his mind."Did you hear Mom scream, Zoy

Maksim looked at Viktor questioningly. He waited for Viktor to explain the meaning of the sentence that had offended him."Tell me!"With a slight yell, Maksim ordered Viktor to quickly answer his question. However Maksim's bluster and sharp eyes didn't make Viktor's guts shrink. Instead, the man stared at Maksim as he pulls one corner of his lips up."For a man like you, shouldn't you be intelligent enough to understand my words, the honorable Mr. Maksim?!"Viktor grinned as he lightly tapped Maksim's left shoulder. He turned to Xandrova and found her looking at him. Viktor nodded to his wife."Come on, Zoya!"'Damn! How dare he mention my full name in an insulting tone! And, how dare he return my gaze,' Maksim is furious with Viktor's behavior. That poor guy shouldn't be able to move when I look at him, he continued inwardly.Viktor leaves with Xandrova, leaving behind his wife's family and Maksim, who is always trying to take Xandrova away from him. The man without a job held Xandr

Maksim's deep voice ended Xandrova's photo op with fans. They all looked at Maksim, who had just arrived. Aware of Maksim's presence, Viktor rushed to return the smartphone belonging to one of the teenagers and pulled Xandrova's hand to stand by his side."Aーaren't you ....""Yes, I'm Maksim Smirnov Romanov. The ex-fiancé of this pretty lady that you all praise!"Maksim interrupted one of the girls' words while pointing at Xandrova with his chin. Maksim's arrogant attitude just now, of course, made Viktor angry."Can't you show some manners in public, Mr. Maksim? You won't abandon a basic manner just because you are rich, will you?"It didn't matter if it was a question or a condescending sentence from Viktor's mouth. Because to be honest, Viktor intended to humiliate Maksim at every opportunity."So, why did you fail to get married, Mr. Maksim?" Again, the blonde girl asked a striking question."Mr. Maksim. Now is a great opportunity to humiliate Mr. Viktor, and you can't just miss i

This summer was different for Viktor. He was no longer alone. He had married Xandrova cause of the great master of the Konstantin familyーGennadius Zigfrids Konstantin, who matched his only granddaughter with Viktor. Viktor was extremely happy, although he couldn't fully say he was happy as long as poverty lingered.Viktor and Xandrova walked along the Neva river. Neither of them had spoken since leaving Maksim earlier. They were busy with their own thoughts. Their presence attracted the attention of everyone who was there.Viktor tries to contain his anger in front of Xandrova. He didn't want to scare his wife or make her feel uncomfortable when he was with her. And, Xandrova realized that. "Viktor, I ...."Viktor stopped his steps when he realized that Xandrova wanted to say something. Viktor grasped both of Xandrova's hands. "What's wrong? Just tell me, Zoya!"Xandrova looked up to see Viktor's handsome faceーeven more handsome than her ex-fiancé. "'I'm...I'm...."Two pairs of bea

"Andriy, take this woman out right now! Don't let her come into my office again. If she needs anything, you serve her!" Viktor exclaimed without looking at either Andriy or Evelina."If you ask me why, I'll answer that I'm sick of her face and disgusted by her behavior! I'm a married man. I'll always keep my good name and my wife's good name!"Andriy let out a long breath, then immediately responded to Viktor's words. "I get it, Mr. Viktor."Andriy closed his eyes for a moment. Then, he turned to look at Evelina."Miss Evelina, my Master always maintains an attitude towards any woman. Besides, my master loves cleanliness. My master doesn't like to come into contact with anything or anyone, other than his wife."Evelina rounded her eyes. Evelina was offended because she felt that she was the only beautiful woman in Konstantin's companyーat least that was the rumor spread throughout Konstantin Co."Hmm, okay. I get it, Mr. Andriy. I did touch Mr. Viktor's tie, but I did it to justify it

44. Challenge
Viktor finally arrived at Konstantin's family company. He walked through the corridor to his office. However, something interrupted his vision. Viktor stopped his steps. He looked at the faces of his employees one by one. "Good morning, Mr. Viktor." An employee sitting right in front of Viktor greeted him. However, Viktor didn't pay any attention to him. "Hey, you!" Viktor pointed at a man wearing glasses sitting on a chair in the corner of the room. The man was hiding behind a cubicle. "Me?" Finally, the man stood up and looked at Viktor. "Yes, you. Come here!" Everyone who was there looked at the man. The man with glasses immediately walked hesitantly towards Viktor while adjusting his glasses. "W-what's wrong, Mr. Viktor?" The man made a mistake. He adjusted the collar of the clothes that were still neat. "I'm going to give you an assignment." Andriy frowned at the master's words. "Assignment? What task, Mr. Viktor?" Viktor smiled as he looked at the man's face. Then

"Ha! Ha! Ha!"The sound of Gennadius' laughter filled the entire living room where he, Yuri, and Andriy were. Viktor and Xandrova turned to the source of the sound.'Oh, no! They must have seen me flirting with Zoya!'Viktor said to himself. He didn't know and didn't expect everyone to see his silly behavior with Xandrova."Grandpa ...."Xandrova smiled awkwardly when she saw Gennadius laughing at her and Viktor."We'll be leaving soon, Grandpa."Viktor was no less awkward than Xandrova. He took his wife's hand and led her away."I'm so glad to see you guys getting along. Keep it up like that! I believe that one day when trouble comes, you'll be ready to talk about it heart-to-heart."'Yes, that's right. That's why I'm trying to win Zoya's heart and make her comfortable with me, Grandpa.'Viktor realized that he and Gennadius had the same train of thought. Viktor smiled."Hopefully we won't disappoint you, Grandpa."Viktor bowed followed by Xandrova."We're leaving now, Grandpa."Just

42. The Privilege
Today is the first day of Xandrova's studies at St Petersburg State University. The campus is located on Vasilievsky Island. During the Soviet Union, the largest and oldest university in Russia was called Leningrad State University."Zoya, I'll take you to campus before I go to work."Xandrova stopped eating and turned to Viktor."Aren't you gonna be late for work? Because considering the distance between my campus and your office is not close, Viktor.""Zoya has a driver. So, let the driver take her."Davidoff gave a terse opinion. He didn't stop eating at all while speaking."It's not because you're the son-in-law of this family that you can just come to the office. There is no privilege for the family though."Davidoff was still speaking curtly. Gennadius also glanced at him from the corner of his eye."Can't you shut up, David? You're making my appetite disappear."Xandrova felt guilty for causing such an early morning commotion."Everyone has spent the summer vacation. Today is Z

41. Oddity
There's nothing more fun than being with family, right? At least that's what Gennadius thought when he saw Viktor and Xandrova."Ha! Ha! Ha! You guys make Grandpa jealous! Where can Grandpa buy a time machine to go back in time with your Grandma? Ha ha ha!"This old man who liked to laugh leaned his head while continuing to stare at the couple Viktor and Xandrova."Grandpa, do you love Grandma with all your heart?” Xandrova suddenly sat in front of Gennadius with a sweet smile."Oh, come on, Zoya! Don't tease me!"Viktor took Xandrova's hand and asked her to stand up. "Stand up! Let's go back to my office room!"Like it or not, Xandrova followed her husband's orders so that she could gain the title of an obedient wife in Viktor's eyes."Okay." Xandrova stood up with Viktor's help. She turned to Gennadius. "Grandpa, we're leaving. Don't work too hard!" Xandrova smiled again at Gennadius."Go away!"Gennadius let Viktor and Xandrova leave his room."See you at lunch, Grandpa!"Xandrova

"Of course, Mr. Viktor.""Of course, Mr. Viktor."The two women nodded their heads while answering Viktor's question."Good."Now, Viktor looked at Andriy."I'm done, Andriy. You can take over now!""Yes, Sir."Andrei nodded. He walked over to give several pieces of paper to the two women. Meanwhile, Viktor walked out of the HRD room."Please fill in the data we need! Then after that, we will conduct several tests after lunch."Viktor has handed over the next task to Andriy. He would go to Gennadius' office room to see Xandrova.***Viktor knocked on the door of Gennadius' office."Come in!"As usual, Gennadius shouted from inside. Viktor heard Gennadius' hoarse voice."Hello, Grandpa."Viktor greeted him as he opened the door. He saw Zoya sitting opposite Gennadius at the old man's desk."Did Zoya trouble Grandpa? I'm deeply sorry about that."Viktor felt bad for Gennadius. But Gennadius laughed at his question."Ha! Ha! Ha! How could my granddaughter do that?""Viktor, you always sa

39. The Asian Ladies
Viktor walked with Andriy to his office room. In front of them, Xandrova took the hand of Gennadius who was limping along. Xandrova looked back and smiled."Viktor, good!"Xandrova looks cheerful. Viktor was happy to see her. Gennadius also turned around. However, the man nodded to signal that Xandrova would be safe with him."Thank you, Zoya."Viktor responded to Xandrova's words happily. Viktor didn't immediately enter his office room before seeing the two of his favorite people turning right towards Gennadius' office room."Miss Zoya has turned the corner, Sir. Let's go into your office room!"Andriy invited Viktor to come in. Viktor agreed. After attaching the cardlock to the sensor, Viktor entered with long strides."You know, Andriy, the photo of Papa David that you sent me last night?" Viktor walked to the work desk and sat there anxiously."What's with those photos, Sir?"Viktor took a moment to breathe. He sat there looking at Andriy."Papa knows about the contents of the coo
