Zayne let go of the calf’s head, letting Jay place it onto Rose’s plate.
Rose was speechless... This tete de veau was the most expensive one she had been served.
Rose loved to eat calf’s head too!
Zayne's curiosity for Rose only grew each time he found a common interest shared by both Rose and Angeline.
Waiting for Rose to leave for the toilet, Zayne excused himself as well and blocked Rose's path when she was halfway there.
"Rose, I want to talk to you." Zayne leaned against the wall with an aloof expression on his face.
Seeing Zayne’s unruly behavior, Rose reprimanded, ” Stand straight, or the Ares family will think that their future son-in-law is a frivolous and unreliable man."
"Who am I to you? Who are you to control the things I d o?" Zayne questioned angrily.
At his questioning, she became silent.
His inquisitive gaze fixed on Rose. "Rose, alias, Ange Lin. What are your intentions behind approaching my father?"
Rose had nothing to say."..."
"You act as if you have the same interests as my sister and have seduced Master Ares. Does Master Ares know? Your complex identity and your schemes?"
Rose was still speechless. "..."
Zayne pulled out a cigarette from the box in his pant pockets. Lighting it up skillfully, he took a long drag.
"Why aren't you saying anything? Feeling guilty now, are we?"
She plucked the cigarette from his mouth and threw it on the ground, stepping on it to extinguish the light.
"Smoking is bad for your health!" she reprimanded.
He was irked beyond words now. "Leave me alone, Rose."
Ignoring him, she walked closer to him. "You think I'm approaching Severe Enterprise with villainous intent, don’t you?"
"Am I wrong?"
