Lance’s face went as black as thunder. Before he lost his temper, a seductive voice drifted into the air
out of the blue. “Why are you wearing such a dark look, Mr. Trump?” All the patrons looked over in the
direction of the voice and were immediately floored. A beautiful lady was slowly descending the stairs
from the second floor of the bar, her slender waist swaying slightly, even as her shapely legs led the
way ahead. She was dressed in a magnificent red gown, complemented by a pair of bright silver high
heels. She looked like a lofty queen descending from her throne. In truth, she was Yelena Lynch, who
was dubbed Rose Queen, the mysterious owner of Nightrose Bar. Everyone had a besotted look in
their eyes. They had long since heard that the mysterious owner of Nightrose was a top-notch beauty
who was S**y and enticing. Beholding her then, they found that the rumors were indeed true. A faint
smile played on Yelena’s lips, the bright red shade seemingly exuding a lethal allure. When she
reached Cordelia, the crowd plunged into a trance for a moment. To their surprise, the two stellar
beauties were not the least inferior to each other when they stood side by side. The only difference was
Cordelia was aloof while Yelena was charming, just like ice and fire. Their combination was downright
fatal. “Mr. Trump?” Lance had also gotten lost in Yelena’s appeal. Only when the latter called his name
softly that he jolted back to reality. “Ms. Yelena, it’s not that I deliberately wanted to kick up a fuss at
your bar, but this despicable couple played me for a fool just now. I merely want to seek justice for
myself.” “Really?” Yelena chuckled seductively. Without warning, she turned to Cordelia and said, “He
called you despicable, my dearest sister.” Sister? At once, Lance’s expression froze. At the same time,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe crowd went into an uproar. Never had they expected the two rare and stunning beauties to be
sisters. Sure enough, birds of a feather flock together! Cordelia had drunk quite a lot of red wine, so her
cheeks were flushed. Nonetheless, her voice remained cold as she replied, “Have him slap himself,
then.” “Okay.” Whirling around, Yelena regarded Lance with a bright smile. “Mr. Trump, my sister
doesn’t like your remark earlier. She asked that you slap yourself.” Lance did not need her repeating it
as he heard Cordelia loud and clear. Even so, he was still a touch bewildered. Yelena continued, “If you
can’t bring yourself to do it, I can have someone else help you out. Or shall I talk to your father about it
personally?” Despite the perpetual smile on her face, Lance felt as though she was a queen and her
words a royal decree. “N-No, it’s okay. I’ll do it myself.” Ultimately, he was defeated by her powerful
aura. He obediently slapped himself a few times before slinking away. It was only then that Yelena
studied Emrys closely. “Who’s this?” “Oh, he’s my boyfriend. His surname’s Lund,” Cordelia answered
before Emrys could say anything. She went according to her plan to give Yelena a surprise. As
expected, a trace of surprise showed in Yelena’s lovely eyes. “Boyfriend?” She eyed Emrys
suspiciously. Emrys nodded. Yelena’s expression shifted. Grabbing Cordelia’s hand, she dragged her
to the side and whispered, “Is he really your boyfriend, Delia? Or are you joking with me?” “Don’t you
think he looks a lot like someone we know? On top of that, his surname is the same,” Cordelia said.
Naturally, Yelena knew who she was referring to. “I know you miss Rys greatly. I miss him, too. But you
can’t simply offer yourself to this man just because he looks a lot like Rys!” Unfortunately, Cordelia
turned a deaf ear to the advice. Instead, she batted her eyelashes and said, “Let me ask you
something, Lena. Do you still remember that we made a pact when we were young, vowing to marry
the same man when we grow up?” In response, Yelena bobbed her head. Of course, I remember that.
It was just a joke during our childhood. “I’ve already decided to marry him, so I came over this time to
introduce him to you. That aside, I’ll be bringing him to meet the others.” Cordelia’s statement was so
shocking that Yelena’s eyes instantly widened in fright. She hurriedly placed her delicate hand against
Cordelia’s forehead. “You’re not running a fever, are you, Delia?” Verily, she could not believe Cordelia
would say such a thing when the latter had always been an exceedingly sensible person. Ignoring her
astonished gaze, Cordelia continued, “I’ve already asked my boyfriend, and he doesn’t mind living with
us all.” When Yelena heard that, her face darkened. Isn’t that to be expected? He’ll be more than glad
to do so when we’re all beyond outstanding! How could he possibly mind it? And how could she fail to
understand that? Could it be that love really makes one’s IQ drop? Oh God, she must have lost her
mind! Since I’m not getting through to her, I’ve got no choice but to talk to her boyfriend. Unbeknownst
to her, a sly smile suddenly bloomed on Cordelia’s face when her back was turned. Cordelia threw
Emrys a look. It was as though she was saying that she had finished her part, and he was up next.
Grasping her meaning, Emrys started arrogantly, “You’re Cordelia’s younger sister who ranks third,
yes? Since Cordelia has told you everything, I’m not going to repeat it again. I hope you won’t be
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm
unreasonable about it.” Yelena was utterly dumbfounded. Good Lord! What kind of person is he? She
gritted her teeth in frustration. He’s the typical kind of man who’s putting up a haughty act after gaining
an advantage! What a sc*mbag! “I think we can go upstairs for a chat.” Although she was seething
inwardly, she still maintained her regal air, merely shooting him an icy glare. It went without saying that
Emrys would never turn that offer down. When they were heading upstairs, Emrys followed behind
Yelena, silently admiring her bewitching figure. Witnessing that, the crowd went green with envy. They
had no idea why Emrys was so lucky that he not only won over an aloof goddess but also received an
invitation to the VIP room alone from Rose Queen herself. Truly, comparisons would only render one
inferior. The elegant VIP room had excellent sound insulation. Once the door was closed, the noises
from outside were cut off completely. Emrys sensed a chill pervading the air. Yelena sat on the leather
couch with her legs crossed, her bright silver high heels seemingly emanating a frosty light. Her regal
aura was fully unleashed. “Have a seat,” she ordered coldly. With a chuckle, Emrys went right over and
plopped down beside her instead of sitting on the couch across from her. Immediately, Yelena frowned,
and a trace of revulsion showed in her lovely eyes. Argh! This sc*mbag is simply insolent! If it weren’t
for Delia, I’d have definitely chopped him into pieces! She had a flashback to the past when Joseph,
the playboy from the Chalker family in the North River District, had paid no mind to the law and ruined
countless girls just because he had an influential background. In the end, she truly could not stand
watching anymore and found an opportunity and castrated the man. If this man here steps out of line
today, I don’t mind granting Jadeboroug
