Narcester was watching them as Avyanna comforted the young child. He sighed heavily, he approached them slowly and tapped Avyanna by her shoulder.
Avyanna looked up at him and smiled, he sat down beside her, Nafeli was laying her head on Avyanna's lap, she was getting drowsy and her eyes were heavy.
Narcester looked at Avyanna as she smiled faintly, she caressed the young girl's head. Briefly after, he waved at an employee of the resort as he walked close to him, "Carry this young child, bring her to a room and let her rest there." Narcester spoke.
"Yes, sir." the staff bowed and gently wrapped his arms around Nafeli to carry her in his arms.
Avyanna looked at them as they went away, she felt sorry for the young child as she tapped her knees. Narcester saw the way she was acting, like a mother who has separation anxiety from her daughter, he gave a brief smile and held on to her arm.
He kissed her head and ruffled her hair.
Later that night, Avyanna strolled around the area, pleased to see the liveliness of the resort. Narcester was greeting some guests in the resorts who are mostly businessmen of Georgia Productions.
The hierarchy of the Entertainment companies has been changing from time to time every five years which causes the industry to panic and find a solution to maintain or attain a higher ground, to have the name of these companies receive exposure to the public. Thus, the reason why these businessmen are around, is the ranking is about to be displayed. Though Thaddeus Studios only started by then, it was very successful and the growth of the company has been very remarkable.
Though once the critics assumed that the quick growth of the company should not be acclaimed due to the reason that Narcester must have cheated his way through, they were eventually speechless of what they see as the present. They spoke of how it is impossible to be on the top list of the best-ranking companies worldwide.
The first couple of years for the company were filled with a piling amount of bad rumors trying to ruin the name of what he built.
But it was proven by the company's performance that Narcester doesn't need to cheat to create an empire in the industry.
During that time, the once-famous and towering Klein Entertainment stooped down, ranking second. During that period, Avyanna was still a college student that barely knew what was going on.
For the past five years, Narcester maintained and continued to step his level up until his company had finally become a figure worldwide. Though he believes we don't stop there just yet, he had an idea of achieving his goals.
Narcester knew his biological mother was part of the Entertainment industry. This whole plot of events towers up above the industry and creates an empire in the soul of business just to show his mother how beneficial he was abandoned.
That alone was his motivation to continue pursuing to surge up the top.
Even outside the industry, Narcester's name is also known in business generally. By just his name, a company he supports will have a powerful abundance in the eyes of many, many tried to use these methods to raise themselves soaring in the air as Vargas did. But eventually, Narcester has always been upfront and vocal, his name is not something to use for someone to rise ranks, it is something to fear and praise.
She was observing him from afar, she felt tingles from her stomach as she was unconscious that he was admiring his professionalism though flustered it made her. Heat rose to her face when she saw Narcester glanced at her and gave a smile.
Immediately he hid her face and went away, trying to cover her burning face with her short hair. There, she accidentally nudged some random old woman as she smiled at her.
"Youth." she sighed, "Those pleasant days. Darling, are you experiencing a thrill from stomach butterflies? They're surging up to your stomach and you just wanna scream, your body starts to heat up, flustered. Though are you thinking whether it's too early to say that it is romance you're experiencing?" the old woman snickered.
"Pardon? I do believe it is too early, miss. It's just a week since I married the man, I barely know him."
The old woman smiled at her and whispered, "Dear, people fall in love eight seconds into a stare."
"What?"
Subsequently, someone grabbed her by her arm as she swerved around. "What the—?" she said with an irked tone in her voice.
Narcester was eyeing her, he spoke doubtfully. "I wonder what's with your social anxiety? Does it come then go? You even dared talk to an old stranger. Who knows what she'll be doing to you?"
She looked behind her and the old woman was nowhere present in the reach of her sight. "I..."
Narcester sighed and scratched her head, intently he looked at her face and caressed it. Thereafter, he wrapped his arm around her shoulder and smiled, "Let's take you home, it's getting late now. You did a good job here."
Avyanna giggled.
On the way back, Avyanna saw a familiar face in the crowd of businessmen. She was in the middle and she was smiling, Avyanna stopped to confirm if it was right.
Narcester wondered why she halted, he looked in the direction of her view of the picture. "Ah, Caitlin...Terra," he muttered.
"So, Nafeli said her mother has business here."
Narcester nodded, he tapped her back, "Let's go. Let's leave them be."
Though her eyes were quite glued to the woman, she glanced at him and glanced back. She saw Caitlin smiling happily around the businessmen, slowly, they started to caress her legs and Avyanna found it very suspicious.
Thereafter, she heard the words that just made it contradict Nafeli's story.
"My husband has been so kind, I don't know why he has to assault me like that~," she said in a tone, though it was supposed to sound sad, it sounded tempting and seductive.
Avyanna felt very suspicious, she viewed them as she gently caressed his chest and smiled. "I hope someone will help me throughout my dark times~ I've suffered a lot, haven't I?" she said.
Narcester's eyes twitched in cringe.
Slowly the man wrapped his hands around his waist, "Sure~ Do you want to start after the meeting?~"
she responded as she placed her arms, hanging onto his neck, wrapping them, and smiled, "Yes, please~"
Though in the far distance, Avyanna heard the voice of a young kid who trembled. She looked at it as Nafeli was clenching her fist, creasing her forehead, and yelling.
"Mom!"
