It had been a while since Jasper’s message came in, the madam should be arriving at the corporation any time soon. About thirty minutes after driving out of the mansion, Jasper drove into the underground parking lot of Beats Corporation just as Lucas had instructed him. He was well known by the security to be one of the CEO’s men, so he was allowed in without any trouble.The underground parking lot was meant only for the CEO, and since the marriage between the madam and the big boss was being kept a secret, Lucas felt it was best to leave it that way. He was already waiting for them there when Jasper drove in and parked the car neatly, next to the black Maybach the CEO rode in in the morning. Swiftly, he opened the door to the backseat for their madam. One look at her wrapped arm and memories from the previous day came flooding through Lucas’ head. ‘Don’t worry madam, I’m already getting justice for you.’ “Thank you.” Mia who had absolutely no idea what was going on in the handso

He took brisk steps to the desk and reached his hands forward to carry the boxes. But..."Leave them here." The Big Boss' voice made his hands freeze midair.Lucas' eyes blinked dumbly. Were his ears in need of cleaning? But he had them cleaned yesterday. He glanced at his boss whose eyes didn't leave the document he was assessing.Lucas' head tilted to the side. He had to have his ears checked. He stretched out his hands further but before they could land on the lunchboxes, Shawn's head shot up and he gave him a cold hard glare.The PA retracted his hands immediately.A flood of confusion washed over him as he took two steps backwards and stood there in silence.The CEO's brows creased irritably when he saw this. What was the guy still waiting for?Lucas caught on and quickly found something to say. "Sir, you'll be attending a meeting in five minutes’ time."Well, that was true. The CEO would indeed be having a project update meeting with the top officials of the corporation.The CEO

“How do I look?” He turned to face Madam Susan.Although he lost his father way back when he was young, he only lost his mother two years ago to a motor accident. Ever since then, Madam Susan had been a mother figure to Shawn—no—she was a grandma figure to him.His grandmother passed away even before he was born. Madam Susan had been by his side from the moment before he took his first step.“Perfect, as always.” The elderly woman grinned. Shawn nodded his head. “Since you’re ready, it’s time for you to go get the Madam.” Shawn froze momentarily, his brows furrowing. Why did it have to be him?Moments from this afternoon came flooding his head and his mouth twitched a little. Did he perhaps go harsh on her?…“Okay.” —Few minutes later, the CEO stepped gallantly out of his room. He took large strides and soon came face-to-face with the door that led into the girl’s room. He frowned.Hesitating for a second, he swung the door open and walked in.Mia shrieked at once, jumping up

That way, she’d be able to sneak a few glances at him whilst she ate.And that was exactly what she did. As Mia ate, she occasionally stole glances at the aloof man who was immersed in what he was doing on the Tab in his hand.The man also occasionally took a few sip from the mug in his other hand.Shawn was fully aware of the girl’s peering gazes but he chose to ignore her.For what it was worth, he didn’t mind at all. After he was done with the document he was reading on the Tab, he made to stand up. But when his eyes subconsciously landed on the plateful of food before him, he remained seated.His lips pursed as he eyed the dishes beneath his eyelashes. After a few seconds, he placed the mug on the table, picked up a spoon, and began to eat.After munching on about three spoons of the meal, the aloof CEO stood up immediately afterwards.Without looking back, he took large strides out of the house.Mia was astonished. She was totally surprised.Since she met the icy cold man, thi

After the principal left with the expelled students, the hall erupted into chaos.The students still found it really hard to believe their eyes and ears.The ones closest to where Mia was threw glances at her, whispering among themselves.Everyone knew that the matter today was about her being bullied.But then, last they checked, Mia was a nobody.Although her father was well to do, the man was more or less nothing compared to Vicky’s parents.He didn’t have the resources it took to actually go against them.So, what was behind Mia? Better still, who was behind her?Could it be Max? Or did she find herself an influential sugar daddy?The bell soon rang, signaling the beginning of classes for the day.Slowly, the students began to disperse, one after the other, from the hall, into their various classes.—In the principal’s office:As soon as Mrs. Babington stepped in, she was met by a crowded sight. The school management had already put calls across to the respective parents of the
