Chapter 27
"And sometimes you need your knight in shining armour."
-Kirsten Dunst-
***
Vian woke up that morning and started getting ready for the day. It was Saturday and she planned on going to the address her grandmother had assigned her to go. She would just go there in the afternoon and her grandmother had told her she could arrive at around one for lunch time and the person intended to be given the gift to would also arrive at roughly the same time.
Since it was weekend, both Adonis and Vian decided they would take bath together since they had more time to spare. Their relationship had gotten a bit closer ever since their last date. It was a good thing Adonis started asking her out, they had sorted out everything that had distanced them from each other before. Even though he had not told her about who he actually was and it would be a surprise for later on, he still managed to make her trust him more and she had actually started to pu

"Not everything that is faced can be changed. But nothing can be changed until it is faced."-James Baldwin-***Vian waited for the man to show up to retrieve the gift and in the meantime she was busy people gazing and observing her surrounding, being in the present moment had always been quite calming for her. Instead of worrying to much about things she could not control she let her body be in the present moment. Though the serenity would not last long because soon enough she saw a familiar figure from afar.It was none other than Carson and the history repeated itself. Actually no, she never had any moments with him like this but her initial instinct was to run away as fast as possible from where she was. Her feeling was telling her to go but her legs felt like they were glued to the table floor and by the time she was able to stand up he was already approaching her.“Vian, I am glad I am finally able to meet you

"The interesting thing is why we're so desperate for this anesthetic against loneliness."-David Foster Wallace-***Carson laid down in his bed after he was done playing with the random prostitute he had hired to accompany him that night. The red haired woman had her arms wrapped around his chest while her face faced him. The woman had a smudged red lips on the side and slightly messed up hair, but it was the aftermath of their sex session which lasted for nearly an hour.“How do you like it?” She asked him as she trailed her nails across his chest in a seductive motion, subtly making an attempt to arouse him again. He turned to her and put on a fake smile as a response, barely saying a word, which was more his style. He enjoyed her performance but she was not enough for him. Nothing was really enough for him and he did not know why. No matter how many women he had sex with, it was never enough for him. Not because o

"The way you dress is an expression of your personality."-Alessandro Michele-***After all the chaos they had been through, Adonis decided to remain silent about the matter about Greta until he found more proofs, though he might have to confront her about letting her grand-daughter meet up with that sort of psychotic man. It was not as if she was innocent or she did not know about it, she knew exactly what kind of man Carson was. At this point his reputation was no longer a secret, yet he still made her go and for Adonis, it was simply unforgivable. The woman might be the head of the house and yes she might be the eldest which meant by nature he needed to respect her.However, the more he figured out about how messed up she was the less respect he had for her. Their relationship was already questionable in term of civil rating, but it became worse after the events which had been happening as of lately. The only thing he could b

"It's a good idea always to do something relaxing prior to making an important decision in your life."-Paulo Coelho-***The best thing about going to a spa is how heightened your senses would be the minute you enter the space. From the scent of calming familiarity, blends of different floral or tea scented massage oils mixed with a bit of wood, the perfect placement of lighting at each corner and the soft, relaxing music which you could hear the minute you were there worked like magic to bring you in a mood of serenity. It was the best place to play with your senses.Though one could do spa at home, nothing could beat the experience at a real spa, unless you have a professional bringing home the spa into your house, which includes the interiors needed, for some people, at home spa actually meant at home spa. The manor lacked it despite its luxury design, but once the two of them moved out from the manor, she would definitely ha

"Your direction is more important than your speech."-Richard L. Evans-***After the relaxing spa experience, their body was relaxed and recharged, Vian decided they would need to do it at least once each month just to live better and Adonis agreed to it. They went out and entered their car. As she took a seat, a grumbling sound was heard in the air. It came from Vian who was starving since she did not each much.“Are you hungry, my love? What do you want to eat? Let’s go have dinner together.” She was hungry but she was not really feeling anything heavy. She thought about it for a second and listened to her gut.“I want to eat something light, maybe some salad. Can we go to a salad bar in town?”“Okay, my love. Let’s go and have some salad if that’s what you’re craving.” He drove the car to a salad bar at the heart of the city. Of course, they served more

"There can be no progress without head on confrontation."-Christopher Hitchens-***Someone needed to set things straight. Adonis decided it was time someone told Greta she could not just play with her own descendant’s life just for the sake of protecting her own life. The old woman had always been the kind of person who only cared about herself. Never paid any attention to other people’s happiness. For her, the family’s image was more important than how they members were feeling, she put no second thought before putting Vian’s life in danger just like that.He knew he would probably stir up some fire within the woman and he knew he was supposed to help Vian gain her favor but at this state he saw nothing good coming out from merely trying to impress her. It was like trying to move walls. You can’t do it, the only thing he could do was to express how awful it was for Vian to went through what she di

Once she was out of sight, Adonis turned the engine on and drove away to his own office.However, in the middle of the road he suddenly noticed a black car behind him which always seemed to be there and it was almost as if the car was following him. He realized it had been there since he left his house complex which initially he paid no attention to because they were on the public road already and not quite in the private area of the house, but the more he noticed it, especially after he dropped Vian off, the more he realized he was being followed.Filippe had told him that

"Make measurable progress in reasonable time."-Jim Rohn-***Vian attended another fashion event however this time, it was not a fashion show like before. This time she had been invited as a guest on a photoshoot session for a fashion magazine where she would write an article for them and had a bit of an interview with the founder. It was a great opportunity for her to increase her career ladder because if the article she wrote was a success she would have earned enough to become one of the youngest senior editor and that would mean a lot for her. It would also become her stepping stone in the fashion industry where she could finally use her name to influence the industry and perhaps even started her own business in fashion which was something she had always dreamt off.For her, funding was not an issue, the problem was her credibility and she had to make sure before she started anything for herself she would have enough credibi
