“You look nervous.” Luca immediately noticed the discomfort in her face as they rode the Mercedes towards Old Man Han’s estate. He held her hand that was resting on her leg and smiled. “My grandfather won’t eat you. At least… not alive.”“Real funny.” She scoffed and turned her head away, ignoring the concern visible in his eyes. “What’s he like? Your grandfather?”“He’s strict. But he tries to protect me as much as he can. So I guess that’s a win.” He chuckled while slowly rubbing his knuckles at the back of her palm. The action was soft and smooth. She liked it. “When my father died, I was sent abroad to study. Then when I came back… he made me the CEO.”Fiona stared at him. The things that he said were something she already knew. Was it because he didn’t know that much about his own grandfather?“He aske

Luca froze and stared at her. “I… I think so?”She chuckled and shook her head. “I’m going to sleep.”“Right…” He nodded. “Right. You should. Tomorrow is your first day. You should… uh… sleep.”Did she just see his ears turning scarlet red? She snorted and stood before she felt his hand on her wrist.“Wait.”“Hm?” She hummed in response and stared at his hand. For some reason, the small friction caused her stomach to twirl and turn. She was horny.Pretty obvious.To be fair, she was with a handsome man, wearing nothing but his robe. Surely, he wouldn’t blame her for thinking something… dirty, right? She gulped. “What did you say?”“I said… you should be careful. My people said that the incident with Naomi has already started spreading. They think you bullied her and caused the

 The smell of tea wafted inside the private room in the restaurant. It was jasmine, mild and fragrant for most people. In fact, it was Naomi’s favorite tea. She smiled and took a sip, then she stole a glance at Luca who remembered her tastes.“Luca, why would you invite her to this dinner?” Arya immediately took the first opportunity to speak just as the waiter who took their order left. “I thought you were only inviting Naomi?”“Hmmm.” Luca nodded. “I invited Miss Jiang and Fiona. But I don’t remember inviting you.”Arya’s face reddened. She stared at Luca in disbelief. “You— ““Luca, how could you say something like that to Arya? She was only concerned about me. Please stop acting like that to your own cousin.”“I don’t think there is something wrong with that question Miss Jiang,” Luca said before sipping his tea. &ldquo

“So let me get this clear, Arya cannot actually show herself in the company because of some promise she made to your grandfather?” Fiona sat on the couch inside their room, she eyed Luca who was busy on his laptop. “She wanted grandfather to pay for her travels after she spent all her trust fund money in gaining followers on some social media.” Fiona stared at him, flabbergasted. How come she never heard about this before? Obviously, the Han Family must have tried to hide it as it would only ruin the woman’s reputation. As someone with Chinese blood, she knew how people in China and Hong Kong care a lot about reputation. They would care about preserving their face more than they would care about the mental health of their child. Obviously, this only happens to a few families with really rich and traditional backgrounds. She was honestly curious about the money but decided not to ask about it. “You are curious about the money?” “Was it that obv

This woman was truly shameless. Fiona had been here for a couple of days and she was already accusing her of something. “Miss Jiang, I have only been here for a couple of days. Or have you forgotten that?” “You–” Fiona smiled at Naomi. Despite being distraught, Naomi looked divine in her makeup. She was wearing a pale blue suit that highlighted her curves. It wasn’t vulgar or anything. In fact, it looked cool and fashionable. With her hair in a bun, Naomi looked professional and intimidating at that same time. “Of course, if uncle was so concerned about the Han Family then… why not just make her your secretary?” Luca sneered. This scheme was of course created by Fiona. It was a simple one. First, Cedric needed to get rid of the people that the Jiang Family put inside the company. Getting rid of spies should be his priority. He needed to establish his name, and he wouldn’t be able to do anything if there were spies all ar
