Stephen grinned, "You have made a pact with me. Are you going to renege on it?" Aiden said angrily, "Why do we have to fulfill our agreement with you? For us, Fiona's safety is the most important thing! To hell with the agreement you made!"Fiona felt embarrassed by Roy Potter's brothers' childish attitude. Being a debatable person, Fiona couldn't stay silent and allow the bickering to continue.Fiona said amidst the commotion, "Please, everyone calm down!"Billy's face filled with worry, he said, "How can we rest easy when you leave the house with a poor man like him? I can't imagine for a second that you have to live in lowly facilities and suffer!"As if the air had frozen, Roy Potter, who knew nothing about Stephen and Geoff's family matters, became tense as well.Roy said in amazement, "What the heck is going on? Isn't your need to clarify the Etta Carson scandal clear?" Aiden and Bryson feel embarrassed for having raised their voices in his presence."I apologize for the inconve
As Fiona sat beside Bryson, she listened intently to Roy Potter's words. Suddenly, his statement hit her like a bolt of lightning. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. It was so unbelievable that if she hadn't heard it straight from the man's mouth, she would have thought it was a joke.In shock, Fiona quickly rose and confronted Roy, her voice trembling with disbelief. "Are you kidding me?" she asked incredulously.Roy, wearing a beige suit and a professional smile, looked back at Fiona calmly. He could sense her disbelief, but he knew he had to be serious. "Of course not," he said firmly. "I'm not going to joke about big things."Fiona looked at Roy, trying to gauge his sincerity. His tone and expression were serious, and she knew that he wasn't joking.Stephen asked, "What do you think, Fiona? Do you want to live in the Magnificent Emerald penthouse with me?"When Stephen asked Fiona if she wanted to live in the Magnificent Emerald penthouse with him, her heart skipped a beat.
While in the bathroom, Stephen filled a bathtub with warm water and then took a dip. For a moment he felt more alive when the warm water washes his body and scalp. His skin feels calm, then drives away the tiredness that has long been a waste in the chest."Thank god for tonight." Stephen thought happily. He leaned back looking at the bathroom ceiling. He couldn't help but smile at the memory of Bryson getting beaten up by the security guards. "Supposedly, he learned from this incident," continued Stephen.But, the thing that made Stephen happy the most was Fiona's willingness to stay with him. He didn't expect Fiona to dare to make the decision to live with him at a time when she didn't know what kind of place she would be living in with Stephen.Even so, he wouldn't be in a hurry to judge that Fiona loved him only from the choices he made at this time. The journey of their relationship is still too far for a stronger and sacred relationship. In the past, Fiona was sexually abused by
"Fiona... Fiona!" Stephen called out, shaking her unconscious body. Unfortunately, his efforts were in vain; she still hadn't stirred."Oh, damn it!" Stephen exclaimed in frustration upon catching sight of his own nudity. "I must have startled her," he thought with regret, quickly reaching for the bathrobe to cover himself."How could I have fallen asleep in the bath? She must be worried sick," Stephen thought as he saw Fiona's closed eyes.Without delay, Stephen gently lifted Fiona's body and laid her on the soft, golden-laced bed. He tucked a blanket around her and checked her temperature by placing the back of his hand against her forehead."Oh, my God! She's running a fever," Stephen exclaimed, his concern growing. He quickly dialed the penthouse call service."Hello, Mr. Stephen. How can I assist you?" the clerk inquired."Please send a doctor immediately! My wife has fainted," Stephen ordered, relieved when the clerk acknowledged his request.Stephen felt frustrated that he hadn'
That morning, Fiona returned to her activities and prepared to head to campus. She was neatly dressed in her favorite plaid shirt and black jeans. In her heart, she wondered why the penthouse wardrobe contained clothes that perfectly matched her preferred styles and brands."If you're not feeling well, don't push yourself too hard! You can get permission not to go to campus because you're sick," Stephen said, seeing Fiona standing in front of a large mirror that displayed her whole body."Don't worry, Stephen! I'm fine!" Fiona turned to face Stephen, who was sitting on the sofa. She also spread both arms, as if showing off her vitality.Stephen sighed, observing Fiona's strong will to go to campus. Nevertheless, he could not let her go alone. That morning, Stephen contacted Oliver via text message."Come to the Magnificent Emerald hotel immediately to take my wife to campus!"Only a few seconds later, Stephen's cell phone rang, signaling a reply message from Oliver."I've been in the p
After Fiona had left for campus, Stephen felt relieved to be alone in the penthouse again. He was exhausted and desperately wanted to sleep, but his thoughts still revolved around his modeling career and his role as the President Director of Magnificent Emerald Group."I hope this is a good start for me," Stephen thought to himself.As he lounged on the sofa, Stephen checked his phone for notifications from his messaging app and call logs. When he saw Keyla Fox's name on his call log, he was surprised and curious about why she had called him. He contemplated asking her directly.Stephen muttered as he perused the list of phone numbers that had contacted him. "What's this? Keyla Fox called me?"He recollected the time on his phone when Keyla had made the call. "I think I was in the shower then!" Stephen said, pressing his index finger and thumb against his chin."I wonder what she needs."Next, Stephen checked his messaging app, but he didn't find any messages from Keyla Fox.Stephen th
Together with William, Stephen made his way through the bustling streets of Rosewind. It didn't take long from his penthouse to the police station.Upon arriving at the parking lot, Stephen entered the spacious and brightly lit lobby of the police station, with high ceilings adorned with modern chandeliers that gave a warm and welcoming atmosphere.There were several seats around the room occupied by several people waiting their turn to be served at the public service counter.At the end of the room, there was a small public courtroom where several people were attending a trial. Several security officers were seen patrolling and maintaining security around the lobby.In the lobby, Stephen was greeted by a police staff who then escorted him to the interrogation room."Welcome to the Rosewind police station, Mr. Stephen," a police officer behind the desk greeted him with a serious look.The police officer began the interrogation process with questions about when Stepehen first met Etta C
After finishing his business at the police station, Stephen went to the Magnificent Emerald Group office. In his luxurious workspace, he monitored the company's progress and checked the stock market of famous companies in Southroses.Accidentally, Stephen saw the stock price of Fun Milk owned by Billy Geoff drop dramatically."Unlucky for you, Billy! You've fallen from grace," Stephen grinned.The cancellation of the partnership between Fun Milk and Magnificent Emerald Group had a significant impact. While strolling around the city, Stephen noticed many restaurants and coffee shops that had previously displayed Fun Milk products had now switched to competitor brands.One of the reasons was due to the public's trust in Magnificent Emerald Group. According to netizens, an international company like Magnificent Emerald Group must have carefully considered decisions before making them. Therefore, the public's trust in the Fun Milk brand had plummeted dramatically.Furthermore, sensitive in
