We stood near the sh.o.r.e, waiting for Cain to make his way towards us.The cold man remained expressionless as he strode in our direction. But the frostiness in his eyes intensified as he shot a glare at the little puff of fur in my arms.
Sensing danger, Little Pluffy s.h.i.+vered and snuggled against me for protection as he whimpered. I threw a pointed look at Cain and hugged the little s.h.i.+vering furball closer to me.
Cain shook his head a little. His expression said he was regretting buying the little pup. He made his way towards us and gently patted my head while he shot another glare at the little furball.
"Let"s go," he said, and held my hand, leading me into the tent.

"We are very sorry, Mrs. Goldwood, but Mr. Fay is not here," said the concierge lady, trying her hardest to be polite with her tone.
"Don"t lie to us!" Holley spat and pointed at the concierge lady, forgetting all her image. "We know that Cain is here!"
The concierge lady was stunned shut –– Holley Goldwood, rumored for her breath-taking beauty and docile ladylike temperament was shouting at the top of her lungs. Another reason not to believe in rumors.
Even an angelic face hid a demonic side. The concierge lady thought.
"Holley."

Evelyn reprimanded her daughter, and she smiled sweetly at the concierge. "Well then, if Cain is not here, then we will trouble you no longer."
Evelyn then motioned for the driver to take them home.
Holley let out a cry of protest, "Mother! Cain is here in New Haven! Someone saw him here! Where can he be, but in his penthouse?! Mother, you have to buy me a unit in Azure Sky!"
Holley was on the verge of insanity these past few days. She did everything to see Cain, but the man remained elusive as ever. The last time she saw him was at that meeting with the Jansen"s in Tower One in New York. She thickened her skin and begged her mother to bring her to that private affair just to see the man.
After her father withdrew all relations from the Fay"s, it became even harder to see Cain, and she cursed her father many times in her head.
Evelyn"s heart tightened as she stared at the anguish on her daughter"s face. Holley was pampered since young. All she wanted was given to her, served in s.h.i.+ny golden platters. Evelyn made sure of that. Holley was the only daughter she had, the pearl in her palms. And right now, she couldn"t bear to see her only daughter like this.
"Holley, Azure Sky is already full. We are making arrangements for one of the tenants to sell her unit to us."
"When?!"
Evelyn held her daughter"s hands. "Patience honey, not for long."
"Mother, you can"t expect me to wait and do nothing while that wh.o.r.e is stealing Cain from me!" Holley hissed through the s.p.a.ce of his gnashed teeth, which made the driver jolt.
Evelyn pulled down the divider, separating them and the driver, so no sound was leaking.
"Holley, don"t worry. I"ve already contacted your elder cousin to help you."
Holley paused, and a smile spread on her face. Her elder cousin was like a brother to her. Everything she wanted, her cousin would give it to her without fail.
"Cain will travel next week to fix the problems we"ve caused. At that time, your cousin will meet him personally. That will be your chance."
"Mother, you . . ."
Evelyn laughed despite her evil thoughts.
"Even someone like Cain Fay, once the rice is cook, he will have no other choice but marry you."
