Capital City--Imperial Dynasty Hotel--
In the spacious and quiet office room of over a hundred square meters, the floor-to-ceiling windows were spotlessly clean, reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun.
An entire wall of bookshelves was filled with thick books, while a man sat in the shadows in front of a piano across from the bookshelves, with an upright posture and an indescribable nobility.
"Young Master, the person is here."
Keira Leaf followed two British butlers, carefully observing the man at the piano.
The man remained silent until twenty minutes later when the tune ended, his slender fingers lightly pressed on the white piano keys, bringing the music to a close.
Watching him slowly emerge from the shadows, Keira couldn't help but stare in amazement.
His skin was more delicate and fair than women, like a jar of exquisite white jade. His beautiful face was adorned with a pair of narrow phoenix eyes, reminiscent of cold ice in the depths of the mountains, sharp and devoid of any emotions. Apart from that, his thin lips were slightly pursed, adding a sense of indifference and unfeeling.
This was a face that made people want to curse, as well as a face that could captivate all beings, yet this face belonged to the very man who single-handedly built the enormous Sulliven's Empire with his schemes and iron fist!
Keira suddenly felt uncertain. Would such a man, even more beautiful than a woman, truly be seduced by her?
Her hand reflexively clenched. No matter what, she must seduce this man today!
She slightly lifted her head, revealing her long and snowy jade-like neck in the air. Her deep red lips gently curved in a charming smile at the man, with a touch of a young girl's shyness but also a hint of a beguiling fairy's allure.
Oh Keira, don't you want to sabotage Olivia Leaf's marriage? Don't you want to make them taste the bitterness of having nothing? What are you waiting for, then?
To her flirtatious gesture, Joshua Sulliven revealed a cold smile, the disdain in his eyes clear as day.
He gently lifted Keira's delicate chin, the faint fragrance on the woman's body entering his nostrils: "Ever been in prison?"
"For six years." Keira raised her eyes to meet his indifferent gaze, smiling as she spoke.
Joshua Sulliven disdainfully looked at the woman in front of him, only to find her eyes extremely captivating, occasionally reflecting a faint amber glow, like a cat's eyes: "Do you think I'd want a woman who's been in prison?"
"Young Master Sulliven chose me from so many people, so I presume he wouldn't mind. Besides, when one is tired of abalone and sea cucumber, it's not bad to change one's taste occasionally." Keira acted indifferent.
Only she knew that she was afraid while facing this man.
Even if he spoke gently, with a hint of pity, the deep-rooted indifference and ruthlessness were expressed thoroughly through his every word and action.
There are too many, too many legends about him...
But Keira felt that unless you faced him, you would never understand how terrifying he truly was.
To Keira, to everyone, Joshua Sulliven was a god standing at the top of the pyramid, looking down upon all beings!
"What crime?" Joshua Sulliven took the handkerchief handed over by the housekeeper, wiped his fingers, as if touching Keira just now was an unbearable thing to do.
"Murder, adultery." Keira opened her mouth with a smirk, as if she were boasting of a proud achievement.
Joshua Sulliven frowned, a glimmer of fierceness flashing in his eyes.
Before he could speak, the butler beside him respectfully bent down and explained, "To be exact, attempted adultery."
Joshua Sulliven's eyebrows relaxed somewhat, but he still found Keira's smile to be an eyesore.
"Take her away! Young Master is not in the mood today..." Joshua Sulliven threw the handkerchief in his hand onto the smooth floor and turned to walk towards his large desk.
Keira's heart clenched, she couldn't leave!
For once a woman was rejected by Joshua Sulliven, she would never have a second chance to see him!
