Chapter 120 

Sylvie frowned, the smoke making her cough. She didn’t like being in a space where people smoked. Kage knew this, but of course, he didn’t care about her anymore

LShe dropped her gaze. Astrea Label’s office here in Oasis was closed down by you. I’d like to know the reason it was.” 

Silence fell between them, Kage’s eyes not leaving hers as he took another drag from his cigar

Sylvie felt small under his scrutiny. It was funny how they were in an enclosed space yet in very complicated situation. Here, he held all the cards, and she was completely at his mercy

That is confidential. Of what importance is it to you?He asked, tapping the embering tip of the cigar against the ashtray

Sylvie’s tongue darted out to lick her dry lips. I am affiliated with them.” 

Kage remained silent. Then, she added. Please, could you leave them out of this? They don’t have to get involved, KMr. Hawkins.” 

Kage’s lips curled in a cold smirk. Doesn’t it bother you that they’re keeping you hidden from the world?” 

Sylvie’s shaky hands fisted beside her. How wouldn’t they after what you did to me at the party?” 

Memories of how he had spilled the drink on her and broken the glass st her feet filled her head and made her chest swell with rage. He was wrong, but of course, he didn’t care

Well, I’m sure you’re aware of the reason the office was closed down. It’s still under investigation, and once the investigation is complete, it’ll be reopened. Problem is,he tapped the end of the cigar on the ashtray again. It might take a long time- possibly months.” 

Sylvie’s eyes rounded in shock. Her grandfather would kill her

PPlease! We don’t have such time.She dragged her gaze from the floor, meeting his. This is important to me. I’m ready to do anythinganything at all.” 

Kage, who bad been leading his cigar to his lips, stopped midway, his expression darkening.. 

It wasn’t until that moment that Sylvie realized her mistake

God, she shouldn’t have made that statement

Anything?He cocked a brow. Including going naked?” 

Her lips parted in shock, her heart quickening again

Of course, her nudity wouldn’t be new to him, but this was different

That was a joke,He said in a flat tone, taking a long drag from his cigar again

Sylvie released a shaky breath, not feeling relieved yet

But I’ve told you the only possible solution. You and your family will have to wait.” 

The way he spoke to herIt was as if they were mere strangers, like they never shared good memories

You’re my family now, Sylvie. Three of you. I won’t stand by and watch anyone threaten you. Not even my own mother.His words from four years ago still ignited butterflies in her stomach

Chapter 120 

Her heart twisted with pain. Why hadn’t he asked about the kids Why was he acting like he didn’t remember anything

But, of course, he did. Else, he wouldn’t hate her this much

82% 

Kage pressed a few keys on his keyboard with his free hand. If that is all you wanted to say, you can leave now. I’m busy.” He said, dismissively

Sylvie clutched the sides of her dress, her gaze down to the floor again. She made no attempt to leave

Minutes passed. She could hear Kage typing on his keyboard but made no attempt to move

To her dismay, Kage placed a call. Come get her out of here.” 

That was when she snatched her gaze from the floor, looking at him with eyes filled with dread

I cant leave like this.She shook her head. Please.” 

But he didn’t even look up from his system

The door opened behind her with two hefty men walking in. Sylvie’s heart hammered in ner chest. Was Kage really going to drag her out of his office

She looked back at Kage, wishing he’d change his mind. One of the men put his hand around her

Come on, miss. We don’t have to do this the hard way.His voice was rough

Sylvie knew she stood no chance against the men. With one final pained look at Kage, she turned and started for the dook herself

Her mind teased her with all the terrible things Galen would do to her when she returned home as a failure. She’d have to go back to Australia, and how disappointed Ruby would be in her… 

It’s only been four years, though. Do you really think you’re good enough in fashion to get involved in Astréa Label?His voice halted her at the door, causing her to turn to him

The securities, seeing that Kage was talking to her, didn’t try to touch her

Sylvie furrowed her brows. Was he thinking her incompetent

Maybe if you think you’re that good,” he shrugged, hitting the end of the cigar on the ashtray again. I might have a challenge for you. Although, I’m sure you’ll fail it.” 

Hope glimmered in Sylvie’s eyes despite his insulting remark. Will the office be open?” 

Perhaps,another shrug. But first, you should worry about failing, because I think that is what you’ve been doing for most part of your life.” 

His words sent a sharp sting to her heart. How can he 

say that to her

She clenched her hands beside her, determined not to give him the privilege to see how deeply his words broke her

Turning his system to her, she found an animated dress on the screen

If you can make this within twentyfour hours, then maybe, we’ll have a deal.” 

Sylvie’s lips parted in disbelief, her eyes going round. What in God’s name

She returned her eyes to the screen. It was a floorlength gown, with an array of lace patterns and shimmering beadwork that entwined like vines. The making would, no doubt, be complex. There was no way Sylvie could make it within the given
