Chapter 39 Hiding Together (^O^)



With Cedric Morgan\'s interference, Ronan couldn\'t possibly ignore his proposition of firing those men. In fact, Cedric\'s suggestion helped him save his face as CEO since he would appear like he supported Marceline\'s decision just because of Cedric\'s presence, not because Marceline said so.

If Cedric didn\'t arrive, the end result would be the same. Even if he would object to Marceline\'s demand, he knew that he could no longer stop her from firing those men.

The Chairman pampered this granddaughter of his so much. Since Marceline\'s parents died and became orphaned at 6, Grandpa Roland took care of her, treating her not only as a granddaughter but as his own daughter.

Just one request from her, the old man would move mountains just to fulfill her request. Same thing for Marceline, one word from her grandpa and she would not defy him.

This was one of the reasons Ronan convinced and used her grandfather to agree with the arranged marriage as he believed Marceline would definitely listen to him.

But little did he know, Marceline could see through his plan. She would not let herself be manipulated by her Uncle just because he used her grandfather as an instrument for this wicked plan of his.

"The three of you– You are all fired! Leave my office right away! Start packing your things as well! I don\'t want to see you in this building in an hour!" Ronan showed off his authority to their VIP visitor.

The three men who disrespected Marceline just got the most shocking surprise of their lives. In one fell swoop, they were now unemployed!

They left the CEO\'s office with heavy footsteps, regretting what they had done but at the same time, blaming Kira and hating Marceline Zhou for this mischief.

Meanwhile, Cedric Morgan traced his steps toward Marceline, planning to introduce himself. The mischievous smile still plastered on his face.

On the other hand, Natasha frowned in annoyance when Cedric stopped in front of Marceline, asking for her name.

"May I know the name of this lovely maiden who is as brave as the Amazon Lady?"

Cedric was confident that Marceline would talk to him since he just helped her get rid of those scumbags.

But Marceline could discern men like him. He was oozing with Casanova\'s aura and she hated those kinds of men.

Though Cedric also had good looks and prominent physiques that could charm any woman, Marceline would not be fooled by his pretentious act. The smile on his face was telling her that this guy was no gentleman.

Marceline could see the warning sign "Stay Away from this Man!"

Since the problem had been taken care of, there was no more reason for her to stay there.

Marceline just merely lifted her one brow, without responding to Cedric. His charm would not work on her as she already saw someone as gorgeous as Adonis–Kira Alaric. Cedric was just like an average beauty in her own standard.

She gave him a side glance and said, "Everyone who sets foot in Zhou Empire should already know my name. Why are you still asking me that?"

Natasha and Ronan were both displeased by the rudeness Marceline was showing to Cedric.

\'Is she crazy?! The man before her is the powerful man behind the Triple W!\' Natasha wanted to pull Marceline\'s hair out.

However, Cedric didn\'t look displeased at all but rather, his eyes were sparkling with amusement as he looked at her. He maintained his smile, unaffected by Marceline\'s rudeness.

\'She\'s so bold to talk back to me! I like her.\'

Fortunately, Cedric didn\'t recognize her as the lady in a red dress. She was wearing a mask at that time. Besides, Marceline\'s appearance today was prim and proper, too different from her sexy and hot image when Lyca and she went clubbing.

Though he could smell a familiar scent from her, Cedric didn\'t suspect that she was the lady in red whom he was searching for.

To avoid wasting her most precious time, Marceline walked out of the room, leaving the three people inside and not caring about the deathly glares her cousin and Uncle were giving her.

Cedric just watched her back until she vanished from his sight, a malicious smile playing across his lips.

\'Hmm, I guess… she is the infamous heiress, Marceline Celeste Zhou. I didn\'t expect that she was strikingly beautiful and a very alluring woman.\'

Meanwhile, when Marceline just got out of the CEO\'s office, someone immediately grabbed her by the waist, pulling her to the storage room nearby.

Everything happened so fast that she was not able to react. She just found herself being trapped in the storage room by Kira.

"It\'s you! Why did you bring me here? Are you done with your task?"

Kira bobbed his head. "I deleted the CCTV recording without anyone knowing. I am also done tampering and manipulating the memory of those three scumbags. They will not be a problem anymore."

"Good! So why are we here?" Marceline asked him, looking around in that empty storage room.

Their bodies were still close to each other. Kira was holding her waist, pinning her on the closed door.

"I heard that there are men from Triple W who just came here. I need to hide from them."

Marceline arched her eyebrows. "Then you should have gone to my office. Why drag me here?"

"And why do you need to hide from them?" she added, throwing him another question.

"They are werewolves! They can smell my vampire scent. They are hunting vampires like me. I can\'t pass through the corridor going to your department office. Triple W members just passed by that corridor."

Marceline was surprised upon hearing that. Who would have thought that the famous and top-notch security agency was composed of werewolves?

"Damn! Those creatures can really blend well in our human world. No wonder those staff and bodyguards from that agency are said to be stronger and faster than other human beings. So that\'s the secret of Triple W! It\'s not because of their special training but the members of that agency are supernatural beings!"

Kira nodded his head at her last remarks. "So I\'m trying to avoid them since fights will not be avoided once our paths will cross."

"When I saw you coming out of the CEO\'s office, I grabbed the opportunity to drag you here and inform you about my situation. I don\'t want to leave the building without you knowing. You might look for me." Kira explained his side.

Marceline tried her best to hide her smile. She liked the way Kira thought of her first, instead of leaving the building to avoid the werewolves.

"Hmm, alright. Let\'s hide here for a while," Marceline mumbled as she looked at him with a gleam in her eyes. She pressed her hands on his chest since Kira was still leaning on her.

\'Us? Does it mean she will accompany me here?\'

Kira gazed down, staring at her charming face. For some unknown reason, a crazy idea and wild imagination suddenly popped up in his mind.

"Good suggestion, Boss Lin. We can do more enjoyable things here together… while killing our time and waiting for those mutts to leave the building." Kira said meaningfully, his eyes lingered on her lips and his thumbs caressing and rubbing her waist.

Marceline: (0_0)
