"Brother? How are you going to answer that?"
Anastasia whispered in the earlobe of the older brother. She really didn't want Semyon to be rash in making decisions. And, oh! Anastasia's conjecture this time also missed the mark.
Semyon looked at Kleiner, who was waiting for his requirement answer.
"Well, Sir. I agree to any conditions you put forward."
Anastasia wasn't entirely sure of her elder brother's answer. She didn't want Semyon to be stuck with any of the conditions put forward by the owners of the Rutherford Company.
"Are you certain, Brother?"
Semyon looked at Anastasia with a probing look. He took his younger sister's hand and then moved away from him.
"What?"
"Your answer just now."
"Don't interfere in men's affairs, Anna!"
"But, brother ...."
Semyon pressed his index finger on his thick lips as if telling his sister to stay tight-lipped and just follow the decision he had made earlier.
"I'll do whatever it takes to save the Bolshoi theatre."
Anastasia took a in-depth look at Semyon. She tried to find earnestness at the bottom of the man's shady eyes.
"Do you understand now, Anna?"
The Bolshoi mainstay ballerina also nodded slowly while continuing to look at her brother.
"You know, don't you? Our dancers make Bolshoi their second home? Which means they make Bolshoi their livelihood to support themselves or even their families."
Semyon tries to convince Anastasia to believe him. Because he did all that not for his personal business alone, but for the survival of the theatre that his family had long pioneered.
'There's also some truth to your answer, Brother!' Anastasia exclaimed in her heart. 'Pity Liona! She became a ballerina to support her toddler son because her husband had dumped her,' Anastasia continued silently.
Anastasia remembered her best friend in Bolshoi theaterーLiona Zakharovaーwhich became a single mother at a very young age because the romance with her husband did not go smoothly.
Kleiner just smiled at the sight of the two of them arguing over the terms he gave to the Boldayev family. While Oscar glanced at Kleiner, who was stroking his chin. He was stunned by the master's requirements.
Ddrrttt!
The Oscar mobile phone he was holding in his right hand vibrated. The tremor made the assistant does not concentrate on what his master was talking about and his business relations, who were none other than Semyon Boldayev.
Oscar almost screamed, but he hurriedly covered his mouth with one of his hands. This rare scene, made Anastasia very curious.
"Sorry, Mr. Kley, I've an urgent matter to report to you!"
Oscar interrupted the conversation between Kleiner and Semyon for the umpteenth time. The young master of the Stonevrustarios family also immediately turned his head with a disliking face. Seeing Kleiner looking at him, Oscar put his mouth close to his master's earlobe while whispering.
"Master, the bad news came from your wife!"
Kleiner moved her face away from Oscar and looked at the man with a frown.
"What's the matter? Is she involved in a feud with Alexa again?"
Kleiner recalled the incident that happened to his wife a few days ago. Because that's all he's known all along.
"No, she's not!"
Kleiner's face turned tense after he saw his assistant shake his head.
"And then?"
Oscar put his face close to Kleiner's ear again.
"Can you ask your two guests to leave right away? Because this is an emergency!"
"If you believe that, this is an emergency, all right! I'll send them away now. But if it's the other way around, you've to accept the consequences for your fake news!"
Oscar also nodded immediately and gave his mobile phone to Kleiner.
"Huh?! What's this, Oscar?! Who sent you this video?!"
"Ivan."

"Why did you bring me here, Ethan?"
This afternoon, the atmosphere at the London Eye, which is one of the famous destinations in the first most populous cityーLondonー in the United Kingdom, is a bit crowded. Visitors who come are also from various ages.
Ethan Jayden William, who comes from the number three richest family in the United Kingdom, is a top celebrity who is on the rise in the domestic entertainment world to the international scene. The man, who had been in friendship with the twins Villearisa and Vyschella since childhood, is currently taking the legal wife of the young master Stonevrustarios to their favourite place.
"What's the matter? Why are you making a big deal out of it, Cia?"
Ethan tried to grab Vyschella's hand earlier, but the woman always brushed it off. Yes, Ethan understood his current position. However, isn't the woman who is now with him only playing the role of his twin sister's substitute alone?
"I'm not making a big deal out of it, Ethan!"
Vyschella denies Ethan's statement because he would rather not offend the man he's known since childhood.
"And then?"
Ethan looked at the beautiful woman before him worriedly. He is not ready to lose the figure of Vyschella, who has been in his heart for a long time since they both grew up.
"Ethan, we're grown-ups, aren't we?"
Vyschella looks very uninspired walking with a handsome blue-eyed man with thick eyebrows because she already has the status of a wife, and she feels that she is very despicable side by side with the man who has always been with her since she was a child.
"Hey! Listen to me, Cia!"
Ethan is trying to take control of the complicated situation this afternoon between himself and the woman he loves.
Vyschella lowered her head listlessly. She didn't dare to look into the other person's eyes and, moreover, she was afraid that the driverーIvan Brahmandーwould become Kleiner's spy and report all her activities together with Ethan.
"No! Listen to me carefully, Ethan!"
'To be honest, I miss this kind of atmosphere too, Ethan! Walk with you, go buy gulali, eat all kinds of chocolate and ice cream, even more so laugh with you. But now, things have changed!' Vyschella exclaimed to herself.
"Can't you forget me and our childhood memories?"
Ethan's heart began to beat irregularly. His face also flushed with anger. He hoped that his sense of hearing this time was wrong.
'No, Cia! You mustn't leave my life!' Ethan exclaimed, rejecting Vyschella's request silently in his heart.
Ethan took his breath deeply as he looked at the beautiful woman with blackish-brown hair and rounded eyeballs.
"Cia, tell me! What really happened to you?"
Ethan held back his emotions that were about to explode. He did not intend in the slightest to fulfil the woman's request.
Vyschella began to sob. Her tears escaped from both of her beautiful eyes. She remembered the threat of her biological father, and she could not possibly tell the truth to the man in front of him.
"Aarghh!"
Ethan yelled as loudly as he punched the wall next to him. The man's behaviour was also in the limelight for a moment by the people who were near the two of them. And of course, this opportunity was not wasted by Ivan to record all of Vyschella's activities with Ethan and then report it to the master.
"Don't look for me any more, Ethan! And, don't ask about my feelings for you any more! Because ... to be honest, that feeling has long since disappeared!"
'I'm so sorry, Ethan! I was forced to lie to you so that you wouldn't get further involved in my affairs with Dad as well as Kleiner!' Vyschella exclaimed grievingly.
