A sleek porsche brought Caspian and Jenna to the fancy boutique where they walked inside. As soon as they entered, a hush fell everywhere. The focus shifted to Caspian, a renowned and highly regarded figure. Jenna experienced a surge of nervousness as she trailed behind him in the store.Caspian smoothly headed to the men's section, while Jenna explored the women's racks of dresses and suits. The excessive displays and expensive price tags left her feeling overwhelmed.Feeling her anxious energy, Caspian turned to her with a warm gaze. "Pick out whatever you like. I'm gonna pay them all," he said reassuringly.Jenna couldn't believe her luck. Caspian's flawless taste had always captivated her, and now she could pick something from this opulent boutique.While Caspian was looking through the racks of Louis Vuitton, his gaze was drawn to an exquisite tuxedo suit in midnight blue. The attire was meticulously made using top-notch materials and had a jacket with a satin lapel, trousers wit
Murmurs and the clinking of glasses filled the opulent grand hall. As the auctioneer stood on the raised platform, a faint smile on his face hinted at the extravagant spectacle that was about to unfold."I welcome all esteemed guests to this auction," the auctioneer boomed, his voice carrying just enough theatrics to heighten the atmosphere.Eagerly, the bidders leaned in, eager to participate in the bidding spectacle. Caspian, too, sensed the tension in the room, a clear indication of the fierce competition that lay ahead.Like a game of chess, each bid involved careful calculation and strategic maneuvers to outwit opponents.The auctioneer held his breath as he declared, "Uh, we are eager to know our first bidder for the Azure Midnight bracelet.""$1 million," a bold voice rang out, igniting a surge of enthusiasm among the bidders.From where he was standing, Caspian shook his head as he watched the other bidders ready to increase the stakes. If he wanted to be the winner, he rea
Sylvie's arms were tightly folded across her chest, a deep scowl etched onto her face as she bellowed at Jenna. "I've already warned you, yet you continue to disrespect me," she growled, her eyes narrowed in anger and hurt."You only dared me because you thought Caspian would protect you," Sylvie accused, leaning in closer with a sharp edge to her voice. She knew that Jenna's presence was a threat to her relationship with Caspian, and it filled her with a sense of dread.As Sylvie watched the two of them together for the second time, she couldn't help but feel a wave of jealousy and despair wash over her. She had always dreamed of taking her relationship with Caspian to the next level, but now it seemed like all those hopes were fading away, especially with Jenna in the picture."I never dared you," Jenna retorted with a smirk, her voice dripping with disdain. "I've told you before, there's nothing going on between us."Sylvie felt a surge of shame and frustration rising within her.
Other business matters had been occupying Caspian's mind for quite some time, but in this particular moment, a fresh determination and sense of power took hold of him. Closer to Sophia, he leaned in with his eyes shining brightly with excitement."I have a better idea," he blurted out confidently.Sophia's soft gaze met his as she asked, "Alright, which investment are you interested in?"With a deep breath, Caspian looked at her and finally said what he had been thinking for weeks. "I want to invest deeply in real estate - residential, commercial, and luxury properties - creating a well-balanced portfolio."Sophia's response was hesitant. "Gulps!"Undeterred, Caspian continued, "According to my research, the industry is rapidly growing and within the next ten years, there will be a major shift in its dynamics."Sensing Sophia's skepticism, he added, "Let's just say we'll have thousands of hectares."Her reaction was one of disbelief. "Thousands of hectares?""Yes," Caspian replied fi
Heather's steel-blue eyes locked onto Henry, sending deadly gazes his way. A sly smirk formed on her lips as she taunted, "You're crossing your boundaries, Henry?"Her voice was a low, velvety purr that dripped with disdain. "You said you were looking for Caspian, but do I even look like him?" She scoffed and continued, "Please, get the fuck off."With a deep sigh, Heather's face displayed a mixture of anger and dissatisfaction as she turned away from Henry.Yet, he was unable to endure the embarrassment. How could a mere woman dare to scold him, a manager of Beacon Incorporation, a prestigious business empire under Kevin Sentinel?Ignoring Heather's dismissal, Henry signaled his bodyguards to block her path.As she observed the menacing glares in their eyes, she raised an eyebrow in surprise. Just their no-nonsense hairstyles were intimidating enough for her."Our boss is talking to you," one of them growled in a deep baritone voice. "You don't have the right to turn away from him."
Diana let out a frustrated groan as she watched Sylvie's face fall in disappointment. "Hahaha," she chuckled weakly, noticing the hint of disapproval on her friend's face."Ehn, didn't I warn you about him before you got into a relationship with him?" Diana asked with a soft sigh. "And now you're regretting it. It's even worse now that you've experienced it yourself. At least now you can't say I gave you a false impression of him," she added, leaning back and shrugging in disbelief.Sylvie's voice was heavy with sadness as she leaned in closer. "I think I made a huge mistake," she admitted glumly."My father was counting on us getting married if his friend won the mayoral election. And now that Jovan has won, Caspian has shown me his true colors," Sylvie confessed, her words trailing off in sorrow. Emotionally, she had been struggling since the fierce argument with Jenna.Gasping, Diana rolled her eyes around as she searched for the right words to say. "You know what? Just forget ab
Sophia was in complete awe as she entered the luxurious living room of Caspian's mansion. Faux-gold accents adorned the velvet furniture, creating a luxurious atmosphere. The color-changing chandeliers added a dazzling glow to the marble table and Victorian-style chairs for guests.Taking everything in, Sophia felt a comforting chill that brought relief from the sweltering summer. With a friendly smile that exudes warmth, Caspian, lounging in a plush armchair, made the entire room feel cozy and relaxed.But Sophia couldn't help but roll her eyes as Caspian joked about his mansion being a "cheap haven." She knew better than to believe that; this was anything but an expensive structure.Nevertheless, she played along and accepted his offer of chilled wine, champagne, or artisanal juice. The temptation of savoring top-notch wines and champagnes made Sophia's mouth drool, but she opted for artisanal juice instead.Taking a moment to collect herself, Sophia finally spoke up. "Your mansion i
"Your loyalty," Jenna replied softly, disagreement evident in her tone as she brought up Caspian's ex-girlfriend, Sylvie.Caspian remained firm, his words dripping with authority, "Maybe if time could be reversed, I wouldn't change my stance."Jenna couldn't help but taunt him, "You cheated on her with me." Caspian chuckled softly, his words ringing in Jenna's ears as they sat together on the sun lounger. She queried her lips at his use of the term "norms," but she couldn't deny his charm or the growing feelings she had for him.Jenna had a hard time finding the perfect words to express her feelings for Caspian, but she couldn't bring herself to say them. Instead of revealing everything, she left him curious and intrigued, indicating her deepening admiration for him.Caspian was anticipating Jenna to elaborate on her emotions as they sat in silence, both feeling at ease. Her continued silence shocked him, causing him to gasp and move nearer, urging her to explain.Jenna held back, o
