Chapter 40 - Chapter 40

Serene

" I think I have spoiled your Auntie a little too much " Said a calm feminine voice.

" Maybe a way too much that... it's getting on top of her dumb fat head " Madam Serene stated. Her face showed a disdain as she referred this distant relative of hers.

She stood up and moved closer to a silhouette that was a head taller than her before raised her hands and grabbed their shoulders.

" Now this is your chance to prove yourself my darling. Clean her up and establish your sovereign make sure you get Lara's attention at all costs tonight " Madam Serene grumbled while glaring intensly as if what she was saying was a command and no matter the process the result must be a victory.

There was a split image of her infront of her, The only different was that the silhouette was of a lad and a way younger than her , he was Serene's damn copy.

This was her son Sébastien. Her one and only son,

However right now she was pressing him down making him half-kneel as she step on his pride as a man. Her mouths moved closer to his ear and whispered in a threatening tone

" Do you understand SON!?" Insisting on a word Son.

" Yes Mother! I'll do my best "

His whole body was shaking as he tried to resist his mother brutal force without success, She was an old woman half her size but he couldn't even sat if he wants her stand, She was that intimidating.

" Don't resent me , Mother is doing this so you wouldn't end up good for nothing like father, Bear it , Mother is doing all of this for you "

Putting a caring mother facade serene caressed Sébastien fluffy hair. Sébastien loves his mother so much , He wants her love , he wants her attention so even if she cussed his father he rather felt relieved , at least there is one less competitor for his mother's affection.

" Sébastien loves mother the most , how can he bear to resent her? "

He replied calmly, his face was gentle, he looked at his mother with expectant eyes and Serene knew her son the best and so she opened her arms and let him hug her.

She knew how affection hungry her son was, so she use that to her advantages and use him as she sees fit, After all he is her own son. Her one and only

" Go! My child, make mama proud ".

" Yes! Mother "

...

Ayra was terrified. That was her sore spot and they are picking it over and over again. She lived in regret for three years but she wasn't as cold-blooded as they claim , she wanted to refute but nothing could come out of her mouth,

Until someone comes to rescue the ' Damsel In Distress'

" If any of you saw her killing those two with their own two eyes move forward "

It was calm but authoritative voice that send shiver down of everyone's spine.

Sébastien stood there firmly and he spoke righteously ,He might be a lamb in his mother's den but Apple doesn't fall far off from the tree so he was as intimidating in person, and other people couldn't fight his aura scores.

He was 185 cm tall with broad shoulders sharp chin that can cut aways all the girls hearts, smooky eyes that make you feel like he can send your poor sour to hell and never return adding his three pieces suite that suits his masculine body perfectly, he was perfect version of greek god.

Everyone, men and women who get a chance to lay their eyes on this lord's masterpiece they will be enchanted never to forget him,

He was that charming and of course he was also aware of his charms after all it's hard not to know.

He wrapped his hand on Ayra's shoulders as he gave her a seductive smile but her expression was rather strange, She wasn't giving a normal reaction but he concluded that maybe it's because she was too enchanted by his handsome-ness that she couldn't bring herself to say a word.

' look at my suaveness, I'll capture that Damn girl under my gasp in no time , I don't even need to lift a finger and she will run into my arms'

He thoughts and smirk appeared on his handsome face ,Unlucky for him the one he is after likes Soft chest and plumpy ass, She won't look at him even if he strip down naked.

As the light shone to him it was like a drug for his fangirls and some started to shout, like how dare her ( Ayra) seduce their male god. The hatred they had for her grew by ten folds but Ayra is a way too innocent to notice that she is being used,

Soo-Hyun was coming out to take a breath because there were a lot of people and she hated a crowded places but at the same time she was glad that Ayra was not here ,

She walked past few people who were gossiping and went directly to the front door where she saw the " Unexpected "

As people were cussing some started to throw things at her (Ayra) she was a little in state of shock,

Some it was because they were angry with her for snatching their idol , some were paid audiences bought by Lidia herself and the rest were just bunch of push overs that believes everything the media says,

Sébastien was flexible as he was an athlete. He saw an egg going for Ayra's dress so he blocked it for her with his masculine body but in the process he grabbed her waist on one hand and the back of the neck with another.

When Soo-Hyun came outside she met with the scene of the two entangled with one another.

That sight make her feel irritated and infuriated, she grabbed her fist so hard that her nails penetrate her skin,

She could feel her heart pain and her head bumping so badly but she was too ignorant to know what it was, how could she probably know what love is ?

' I shouldn't be here ' She thought.

With her back on Ayra she walked away so fast with gloomy expression not noticing the smirk on Sébastien's face,

When she went back inside she kept herself busy , all this time she was busy helping her(Ayra)to deal with her so called Auntie, She cornered her (Lidia)so bad that she began to lose patience and started to act violent. It was just a matter of time before she expose her and clear Ayra's name but all she was doing was ' Making a bed for another person '

She should have waited for me, She shouldn't have been here , Why won't she listen.

Soo-Hyun was exuding a dark aura that night, no mortal dared to even be a few centimetres near her. The ceremony was going well so far and as the organizer she has to show her face here and there but her mind was elsewhere,

When she scanned the hall she saw two figures who were enjoying the food and drink while ignoring about the world. It wasn't until today she found out her boss was a gluttonous , and somehow that scene makes her sad,

In her heart she thoughts ' This should have been me and her , I can't let her be happy with someone else'

' Yes! Even if she doesn't want me now , she seduced me first , she has to take the responsibility, she is mine and mine only '

With that she walked to the two figures that were busy eating, She bend over and put her mouth near Lara's ears before she whispered " I'm retiring for now, I don't give a fuck that you want to be mysterious or whatever, This is your company if it went bankrupt it's your loss , I'm gone "

With that she didn't even wait for an answer before she left, Lara just smile and let her be. Not many times this friend of her rebel like this so she couldn't even get angry as she watched her retreating figure,

On the other hand Sébastien was playing a good guy bad boy when a strong hand grabbed his and tossed away, Soo-Hyun bowed and put on a smile that melted the hearts of the audience,

Seeing the comparison of the two people could see clear that the later face card was far away superior than Sébastiens so obvious they will be biased,

" Miss Morningstar is our artist and we checked her background before we signed her and here I stand to say that her history is clean and very soon we will call for a press meeting for an explanation about recent rumors, Until then our company and our artist has nothing to say thank you "

She bowed again and the grabbed Ayra's hand and walked back to the hotel leaving curious people asking questions and many believed her because it would have been impossible for a group as large as the Empire to risk its future for a mere artist,

Now all they can do is to wait for the press conference.

When inside Soo-Hyun's smile faded and put Ayra's on her shoulder as she walked fast , " What are you doing, put me down "

" Shut the fuck up "

She refused to listen, At least not a word today , because It was time to claim this unclaimed territory.
