WE WILL SEE ABOUT THAT
"I expected adjustment but," Christian tilted his head slightly and said honestly, "Not this level of adjustment Riven, especially not from you." Elara’s expression softened slightly at that."Sometimes," she said quietly, "people adapt faster than they expect to… when they feel welcome, you and Lord Adrian never made us feel like outsiders, so we could never feel awkward or hesitate around you both."Christian paused for a brief moment.Then nodded slightly, "It's a good thing Elara! With you all around, this place now truly feels like a home... I really don't find it boring." The conversation drifted after that, light and unforced, small remarks passing between them, occasional teasing from Riven, calm responses from Lysandre, and Elara’s quiet observations weaving through it all.While Adrian moved around effortlessly, not as someone imposing authority, but as someone simply… present.Christian found himself watching it all without realizing.And for a moment, he thought to himse
I'M NOT EXAGGERATING
"Are you planning to sleep the entire day, Mr. CEO… or should I start charging rent for this room?" Adrian’s voice came with a faint teasing edge as he stood near the doorway, arms loosely crossed, watching the figure still half-buried under the blanket, and for a moment, there was no response from Christian except a slight shift as he pulled the cover over his face."Five more minutes… dad," Christian muttered, his voice muffled, clearly not ready to face the morning yet.The word 'dad' which used to be awkward before is coming more naturally right now without any kind awkwardness or hesitation.Every time Christian called him Dad, Adrian couldn't help but to feel happy and excited.Adrian let out a quiet chuckle and walked further inside, stopping near the bed as he looked down at him."You said the same thing ten minutes ago, my dear," he replied calmly. "And before that as well... Now this five more minutes, how many times are you going to repeat it?" Christian slowly lowered th
I KNOW
"Why are you still awake, Chris?" Adrian’s voice came soft and unhurried, breaking the silence that had settled deep into the night, and as he stepped into the dimly lit living room, his gaze immediately found Christian standing near the window, his figure outlined faintly by the city lights beyond the glass.Christian did not turn immediately.For a brief moment, he remained still, as if he had been lost in thought long before Adrian arrived, and only after a quiet breath did he respond."I could ask you the same thing, dad," he said calmly.Adrian let out a faint chuckle as he walked closer, stopping beside him without invading his space, his presence familiar and steady in a way that did not need words."I came to check on you, my dear," he admitted. "You’ve been unusually quiet since evening.... What happened?" Christian finally turned his head slightly, a faint smile appearing on his lips. "Is that so obvious?" Adrian raised an eyebrow lightly."To me, yes," he replied. "As I
THEN WE WILL COME
"Why are all the lights on… Dad?" Christian muttered softly as he stepped inside the house, his brows knitting slightly in confusion as his gaze moved across the living room that was far brighter than usual.The warm glow of multiple lights replacing the quiet dimness he had grown accustomed to returning to after long days, and for a brief moment, he simply stood there, unsure whether he had walked into the right place or not.Before he could think further...."Welcome home, Chris." Adrian’s voice came from ahead, calm yet carrying a warmth that immediately reached him, and as Christian lifted his gaze, he finally noticed them.Lysandre stood slightly to the side, composed as always, his posture straight yet relaxed, while Riven leaned casually against the wall with his usual sharp gaze, and Elara stood near the table, her expression soft but observant, and in the center of it all…Adrian.There was a small arrangement on the table, not grand or extravagant, but enough to make it cl
YOU WILL
"Uncle… aren't you supposed to be busy right now?"Christian asked in a soft voice breaking the silence filled around him.He stood near the large glass window of his office, watching the city lights from there became a favourite hobby to him, only watching the city lights stretching endlessly before him could make him take any kind of important decisions related to his life.The three amulet fragments lying in his palm, their faint glow reflecting softly against his fingers as if reminding him of something far beyond the walls of this building.Edward has stepped a minute ago into the Christian's cabin.After being informed that Christian was still here even at this late hour made him to walk straight to Christian's cabin.As soon as he entered, his eyes fixed on the Christian standing there quietly and for a brief moment, he simply observed him in silence.But the question of Christian made him to answer, "I might be busy to anyone but not to you, Chris."Christian was silent, and E
TOO LATE, BOSS
"Why does it feel like you called all of us here for something serious instead of work, Chris?" Tanya raised an eyebrow with a curious look on her face, her voice broke the quiet atmosphere of the office as she leaned slightly against the table.Her eyes narrowing just a little as she observed Christian standing near the glass wall, his back turned toward them, his posture calm yet carrying a weight that was not difficult to notice."By the you're looking kinda new to me Chris," Kira said with a bright smile, "the suit looks stylish and expensive, you're looking like a movie star today!" Christian was still silent, Luna understood why he called everyone to here all of a sudden.The room itself reflected his new position, larger, more refined, and undeniably belonging to someone at the top, yet despite that, the air inside did not feel distant or intimidating, because the people present were not subordinates standing before a CEO, they were something far more personal than that.Kira
