"Noah Is walking towards us." Alice inford Petal who was looking at the other side.

"Good evening. Ladies." Noah said.

"Good evening. You look nice." Alice noticed how good her cousin looked this evening.

"Thank you. You look beautiful too." He replied, turning to look at PetaI.

She looked extra attractive tonight. Her skin was white as snow, matching the color of the dress she wore perfectly. He gulped softly, staring at the red lipstick on her lips. God, she was too irresistible tonight.

Petal offered him a smile when their eyes t. She noticed how he was looking at her but she chose to ignore it.

"You look lovely Petal. The dress suits you perfectly." Noah said.

"Thank you." Petal replied. signaling. She preferred to not praise him.

Alice noticed how Noah was making Petal uncomfortable. So she needed to do sothing."Noah. Can you bring us sothing to drink? I’m thirsty." Alice said, touching her throat.

"Yes. No problem." Noah said and went to bring the drinks.

Alice waited until Noah was far enough from them before she asked." Did he feel uncomfortable?"

Petal sighed and nodded her head."A little. But it’s alright. He’s a good person." She said, signaling.

"And he has feelings for you. I will give you advice PetaI. Don’t let a man wait for nothing. Tell him the truth as soon as possible." Alice said, looking ahead of her.

As the events started. Everyone beca busy. Ethan had appeared right before the charity event started. He gave a very short speech opening the event with it.

People gathered around him. Greeting him. Discussing so business. offering new ideas and deals. Which he mostly listened to without replying. Ethan was different in his ruling the mafia world. Most of his family mbers that ruled before him, made sure to not involve the governnt in their business, leading them to always get into trouble and sotis war with the governnt.

But he changed all of that. Ethan now is in good favor of the governnt. He let them invest in their business and return he asked them to stay away from their activity as long as it did not concern the national security of the country. Since he made that deal their business is going smoothly without obstructions. It’s better that way. The underworld has been living in peace since he started to rule and their business is increasing.

"I thought that I would never have the chance to speak to you. You look handso." A soft woman’s voice said.

Ethan turned to look at the voice owner and smiled at her."You look stunning yourself. Sarah." He replied to her words.

"Well. Thank you, big brother." Sarah said with a gorgeous smile on her face. Not aware that soone is watching her.

"Did your parents co?" He asked her.

Sarah is a close family mber to Ethan, his mother’s side. He considers her as his second youngest sister.

"Yes. They’re speaking with aunt Lana over there." Sarah pointed in their direction.``Are you going to spend the whole evening speaking to them like the last ti? I ca here especially for you tonight. I want to show so things. It’s about what you asked about before. I managed to fix the hard drive and restore the recordings." Sarah said, making sure that no one heard them.

"et

at my study room in an hour." Ethan said, patting her head before he went to welco the rest of the guests.

Not far away from them. Petal was sipping on her juice. Watched as Ethan spoke with the short hair girl. She took a note of who her simple high low A-line straps chiffon dress was too revealing for a charity party. She tried to not show it but deep inside she felt a strong feeling of jealousy towards that girl. Ethan rarely smiled at anyone but he smiled at that girl two tis. They seed to know each other very well and she wondered who she was. Not wanting to be caught staring. She walked away from there.

Petal went to sit at an empty table that was far away from the guests. It was quieter here and she couldn’t see what was happening in the event. On her way to the table. She saw Alice walking out of the mansion with so guy. All she could think of is that she has a big heart that can love all these hot n as she says.

"Excuse . May I sit here?" Petal heard a man’s voice.

She looked up to see a man who seed to be in his sixties. He seed tired. She nodded her head and the old man sat down.

"Thank you. It’s quiet here." The old man said to her.

Petal smiled at him as she picked up the water bottle that was on the table and poured him a cup of water.

"That’s very generous of you. I’m indeed very thirsty." The old man said as he took the cup from her.

Petal smiled again. This old man is surely sothing. Petal thought to herself.

"I’m David. Evelyn’s father." The old man said.

Petal’s body stiffened. This man Is Evelyn’s father. Ethan’s dead wife.

"I know who you’re. You’re Petal. Lana told

about you." David said, looking at her."She also told

about you and Ethan. Which is sothing I’m happy about. Ethan had a very hard ti blaming himself for what happened to her." He added.

Petal lowered her head, unable to look at the old man. For so reason, she felt ashad of herself.

"When Lana told

that Ethan is dating now. I was happy to hear that. I thought that he had finally decided to move on. But today she told

that there’s so kind of misunderstanding happened between the two of you. I was sad." David said.

Petal looked up at him. Listening to the man nad David.
