“I know you don’t like to socialize, but the way you acted in front of Danika just then, was too cold,” Zephaniah said as he pulled out the chair for Emma to sit on. Although he knew Emma had a cold personality, Danika’s status was at a level where others had to show some respect to.
Emma lifted her head and looked at Zephaniah. She spoke with a sense of ridicule, “If I’m friendly to her, does that mean she will forget that I caused her to lose her manager? Are you confident that she hasn’t put the blame on me?”
“You should forget your pride…” Zephaniah responded seriously.
“My pride is already forgotten.”
Zephaniah was stuck for words as he helplessly shook his head, “You entered H World in such a high-profile way, plus you are currently very popular. You are the biggest competitor for Danika and Yael, that’s why we need to be careful.”
Put simply, she was standing in more and more people’s way. Since the industry was full of both open and hidden rivalry, she should at least try and make her opponents hold back a little when throwing their attacks. Although Emma’s eyes were clear…she was a bit cold.
As they sat in the meeting room, both Zephaniah and Emma were surprised to find, Xanthe had invited Holden to join in on the meeting.
As the topic of Emma’s love life was brought up, Xanthe once again reminded Emma and Zephaniah to be careful. Most importantly, she placed the focus on Holden. She knew Holden and Emma had gone up against each other previously. She didn’t care about what happened in the past, but from now on, she wasn’t going to allow Emma to be schemed against by her own people.
“Holden, everything related to Emma isn’t just Zephaniah’s problem. As the Artists Director, you also hold some responsibility. If anything happens to Emma, you will go down with her.”
Holden frowned but still nodded at Xanthe, “I understand.”
In the end, Emma and Zephaniah left first to go to Moscow. After they left, Xanthe looked at Holden and tried to resolve the issue between them, “I know Zephaniah has left a huge impact on you. I hope you can let go of the past. I still need you.”
Holden looked at Xanthe. He wasn’t sure how sincere she was, so he tested her, “I want to know who the person backing Emma is. What kind of fearful power does he possess?”
“Power?” Xanthe shook her head and smiled. “What power do you think Emma has apart from the Tang family’s power? If she was so powerful, would she require the help of H World to help her slowly advance? He has no such power.”
Holden and Xanthe’s thoughts were the same. But, he was still suspicious, “If that’s the case, then why did you allow Emma to remain in a relationship?”
“What’s so bad about it? When the time is right, we could even use it to divert the public’s attention from a scandal. I can’t guarantee everything for H World will always be smooth sailing.”
As expected, Xanthe wasn’t so kind-hearted…
“Then, have you seen the man?”
“No. But, I don’t think it’s someone that can be revealed. Emma is extremely secretive, so I tried to look into it myself…however, I still have not figured anything out.”
Holden looked at Xanthe, his eyes contained a sense of ridicule.
As for Xanthe’s investigation. Just because she wanted to look into it, did that mean Eric would just sit around and let her investigate?
Most importantly, how dare she try to use Big Boss to divert scandals. What right did she think she had?
…
12pm. Zephaniah arrived at the airport early. He wanted to see the man that was traveling with Emma.
However, all he saw was a fully-disguised Emma followed by Lisa. The man was nowhere to be seen.
This was because Eric had directly taken the VIP entrance, so of course, Zephaniah had no chance of seeing him. By the time he boarded the plane, Eric was already in the first-class cabin having a nap.
So mysterious? Zephaniah even suspected there was a possibility the man was actually on a different flight.
Inside the first-class cabin, Eric was hugging Emma as they rested. While Emma fl*pped through the in-flight magazine, her eyes momentarily stopped on the page advertising diamond rings; there was an obvious look of longing. Eric noticed her gaze but did not say anything.
Although they were husband and wife…
…their hands were bare and they had never held a proper wedding ceremony.
He had to think of a way to let her wear a ring without others suspecting it to be a wedding ring.
It seemed hard, but not too hard…
Eric recalled Emma’s schedule in his mind and smiled to himself. He had an idea.
Sitting in the economy cabin, Zephaniah wasn’t feeling great. This was the first time he had been thrown aside by an artist he managed. So, he couldn’t help but think back on the happy times he spent with Sabrina as they leaned against each other. Unfortunately, he was now all alone.
The 8-hour flight wasn’t too long, but it also couldn’t be considered as short. Zephaniah once again approached the front of the plane hoping to get a glimpse of the mysterious man. There was only one way out of the plane, this time he wouldn’t miss the chance, right?
However, the reality was, Emma and Lisa hurried out of the plane without a man in sight and Zephaniah couldn’t possibly say he’d stay back and wait for a while.
Seeing Zephaniah looking around curiously, Emma couldn’t help but laugh, “What are you looking at? I never thought you had such a childish side to you.”
“Do you not trust me?” Zephaniah finally asked the question that had been in his heart. If Emma really trusted him, she would not be hiding something that even Lisa knew about.
“Yes, I do not trust you enough,” Emma answered simply and straightforwardly. “After all, you previously caused me a heap of trouble…”
Zephaniah: “…”
“Fine, I won’t ask any further, but where will you be living?” Zephaniah crossed his arms and wr*pped his body tightly with a jacket, “Have you also made separate arrangements?”
“Just book accommodation for you and Lisa…I will live nearby and make sure not to cause any delays with work.”
“Emma, is this necessary? We will meet sooner or later…Since we are already overseas together, why can’t you be honest with me?”
A light snow was falling on Moscow at this moment, but, Emma was afraid of the cold. Even though Eric was well-prepared, Emma still couldn’t handle the chill. She wr*pped her arms tightly around herself as she r*bbed her hands together. Seeing her actions, Eric who was currently exiting behind her, couldn’t hold back his heartache. He immediately took off his jacket and placed it on Emma from behind before pulling her into his embrace and walking away with her.
Everything happened so quickly Zephaniah had no time to respond.
Who was that man?
Who was the man that possessed the domineering presence of a king?
Too bad he didn’t see his face!
Zephaniah realized he felt a little nervous.
“Eric…”
“I know what you want to say. But I can’t bear to see you cold,” Eric wr*pped his arms around Emma as he hurried her onto the Airport Pickup Limo prepared by Dynasty Hotel.
His own artist had been hijacked, so Zephaniah couldn’t help but follow closely behind.
He and Lisa walked side-by-side. As the weather was too cold, neither of them spoke. Since they had gotten to this point, would he still not get the chance to see Emma’s man?
