"One thing you can't fake is chemistry."

Adonis was snuggling against Vian’s chest. It was a cozy evening and the two of them had just finished their work for the day, had dinner and took shower together. Everything was so serene and the only thing on Adonis’ mind at the time was to spend plenty of time with her. He just clung onto her arms as she was reading a book. It was such an adorable sight, there were times when Adonis would act like a little boy, hugging her arms was one of those actions. He was not aroused or anything, it was a non-sexual gesture, just something he did to make himself feel safe and comfortable and she did not mind it as long as she could still move her hands to read the book.
He thought the two of them would remain in the same position until they were asleep but of course it would have been an ordinary night with no stories to tell if that was the case. Just as he was gett
"You never know what you have till you've lost it."-Alyson Noel-***Cynthia sat on her cell floor in pure desperation and hopelessness. She did not know how anyone could figure it out. The only person who saw the act was Carson and the man had been keeping his mouth shut the entire time. Clearly this time he had no fault in this no matter how much she despised the man. He made a few threats to expose her but it was purely for his own gain and the man never had any problems with Cynthia.It was Adonis. The man was the reason why she suffered, the moment she stepped out from the place, she would surely give him hell. All she needed to do was to get out from there first. She was sure her parents were working on it. She was sure they were planning a way to bail her out. Yes, she was confident she would be out of there as soon as possible.When she was daydreaming in her own madness, one of the officer came to approach her. S
"Mystery is the basic element of all work of art."-Luis Bunuel-***It was a rather fascinating evening, after going back from work, Adonis went to pick Vian up and they agreed to eat at a Japanese sushi restaurant to celebrate her first day working as a senior editor. As expected, the last article she wrote got lots of love from the public and they were charmed by her writing that they started rooting for her. Of course, the company saw this and officially promoted her. She was beyond happy and proud of herself from going that far. While enjoying her work, she would start moving on to her next project which was to start her own eye wear company. Yes, she had been wanting to dwell in the world of fashion for quite some time but she was a bit doubtful of where to start in the beginning.However, after discussing it with Adonis and a few of her trusted business acquaintances in the fashion industry, she eventually settled for eye
"The weakness of the enemy makes our strength."-Proverb-***The morning his schedule was a bit more packed than usual because he would be announcing a deal which he had been working on for the past two weeks. There were a bunch of things he needed to work on and he came there earlier that day just because it helped him to get a better grasp of the situation.Once he arrived as expected there were not many people there yet. He was able to relax a bit as he took a seat on his chair. Tamara had yet to arrive so he opened up a few folders from the previous day which were already laid out on his table. Then he went through them once more to make sure everything was perfectly fine and started working.An hour later he heard the door being opened and he did not need to lift up his face to figure out that it was Tamara. He lifted up his face to meet hers and this time although she was dressed well like usual and had some natural
"Crying is for plain women. Pretty women go shopping."-Oscar Wilde-***It was a bright Sunday morning and Adonis was getting ready to go out on his own because Vian had a plan with Irina which made him a bit jealous because he wished he would be the one spending time with her but he could not do much. He saw Vian getting ready from the corner of his eyes. She was standing in front of the mirror going back and forth between two dresses she was holding in her hand. One was a pleated skirt red dress while the other was a soft pink sleeveless A-line dress. Both looked stunning on her but she was being indecisive.“Adonis, which one do you think suits me well?” She eventually turned to Adonis to ask for his opinion. He was silent for a bit and eventually pointed at the pink dress.“This one suits you better since you are going out during daytime, I find the red one to be too strong, it’s more suitable
"A simple I love you means more than money."-Frank Sinatra-***Irina was smart enough to read Vian’s expression the moment she spotted Carson and knowing their history together, Irina knew right away if the two of them met there would be another set of disaster and drama. So before he could even reach them, Irina grabbed Vian’s hand and the two of them went back inside. She brought her to the ladies’ bathroom where they would hide for a bit as they waited for him to disappear. It did not take long, only lasted the two of them around ten minutes before they walked out from the bathroom and as expected they had lost him.“That was really close.” Vian breathed in relief. Her face nearly paled. She really wished to have absolutely nothing to do with him. Whenever that man was around, terrible things would happen and she was not going to let him ruin her mood.“Thank you for dragging me out
"Breakfast is everything. The beginning, the first thing. It is the mouthful that is the commitment to a new day, a continuing life."-A.A. Gill-***It was the beginning of fall and the weather had gotten a little bit colder. The streets were turning golden reddish hues and since their house was close to the park, they could see the beauty of fall at its finest each time they went to work and back. Things had been strangely serene, there were not much conflict going on. It had been a rather peaceful time for the family.Irina had not done anything unusual, Carson also mysteriously gone from Vian’s life which she really did not expect at all considering his personality, but she did not wish to overthink it and took it as a good sign. Though Adonis had been increasing his guard on her lately in fear of something bad happening, but Vian had been safe and it was all that mattered at the moment.Their grandmother had als
"Accept the terrible responsibility of life with eyes wide open."-Jordan Peterson-***The hustling and bustling in the building was more intense than usual that day. All the staffs made sure the large meeting hall was prepared for all the guests who would arrived. These people were of importance, many major investors and stakeholders would come to join the meeting. They put out a bit of time out of their busy schedule just to be there and their time was expensive so everyone had to make sure everything was perfect.Adonis arrived a bit earlier since the traffic was not so bad that day. He walked in and was greeted by the receptionist. He asked who has come and the receptionist gave a full list of all the meeting guests who had arrived in there. He went through it and thought the majority had arrived, the meeting time was scheduled for another hour so he thought he would meet up with Filippe and earned some advices from him as w
"Nobody can be as agreeable as an uninvited guest."-Kin Hubbard-***Vian was sitting in her office enjoying her work as she took her fashion brand development progress in between writing a few articles and testing different products from the companies she would review. Her mood was rather bright that day, she had finished a bunch of tasks and felt super productive. The only thing left was to check up on another grand family event. It might seem strange for ordinary people to see her family attending so many major family events but the circle she was in, such events were entirely normal and the next one she was quite excited for because the extended family members from Europe and all over the world would come to celebrate as well.Although some of them she was not exactly entirely familiar with, she always enjoyed the festivity and this time she felt even better because no one could mock Adonis for being unemployed and shamed he
