But then breaking myself out of the moment, I stepped back avoiding his touch and this time his face contoured with anger and he looked as if he would lash and yell at me any second but then he gritted out "What are you doing?"

　　"What?" I asked shrugging at him.


　　"Don't play smart with me Juliette, I am warning you or-"

　　"Or what?" I challenged looking straight into his eyes. He gazed into my eyes and then exhaled out a breath.

　　"What is your problem, Zachary? I am doing what you wanted me to do!" I told him and he squinted his eyes at me.


　　"Did you forget? You told me not to touch you yesterda- oh I mean today" I smiled sheepishly at him.

　　"What?" he questioned.


　　"I mean early in the morning! when you came to my house! At the time of leaving...Remember now?" I asked wiggling my eyebrows.

　　"I remember that!" he snapped.

　　"I didn't mean that!" he gritted as he raked his hands through his hair.

　　"Really? Oh, so that means I can touch you?" I asked all of a sudden and watched as he froze in his position with his hand on his hair.

　　"By the way, I love your new hairstyle!" I said eyeing his hair.

　　"Juliette!" he held both of my arms and I watched as his facial expression changed to a worried one.

　　"What is wrong with you?" he asked worriedness clear in his voice.

　　"You know something?" I asked smiling at him.

　　"I guess this is the first time in your life when you have to open your mouth so many times to speak isn't it hu? hu?" I wiggled my eyebrows at him and he looked at me void of any emotions. He stood there still holding my arms in his hands before he blinked few times and opened his mouth to speak but then closed it as if no words formed in his mouth. The moment was interrupted by none other than the noisy Loana herself.

　　"Zackie!" she chirped standing next to Zachary who was still looking at me avoiding or should I say oblivious to her presence.

　　She looked at Zachary's hands on mine and then at me. I watched as her jaws locked and she gritted her teeth in annoyance.

　　"Zack-"

　　"It's Mr. Sullivan to you Ms. Ularu," Zachary spoke after a while cutting her off.

　　"Oh c'mon" she laughed "What's the forma-"

　　"Did you not hear him? It's Mr. Sullivan to you," I said narrowing my eyes at her. She stopped mid-sentence and glared at me.

　　"I can call him whatever I want! It's personal. It's between him and-" removing Zachary's hand from my arms I took a side step and stood directly before Loana "There is nothing between you and him. Everything related to him is related to me because..." I smiled sweetly at her "I am his wife and he is my husband after all," I completed smirking at her.

　　She balled her fists and her breathing shortened as she eyed me angrily "Zackie look at h-"

　　"I said it's Mr. Sullivan for you Ms. Ularu! You heard my wife already" I heard Zachary's cold tone and I knew it that he was already looking at her with his sharp soul-piercing look which he uses on his second business to deal with his enemies.

　　Ularu eyes widened and I watched sweat formed on her chin and forehead as she looked at Zachary and then back at me. She took a step back but I lunged forward and hugged her catching her off guard.

　　"Saw it? Heard it? Got it? I am his wife. His WIFE. And by the way, he told me that he loves me and nobody else in this world.So remember that next time you try to put your filthy hands on my husband because next time I see your plastic hands on my man I'll rip your throat by my own hands," I whispered with venom filled in my voice.

　　As I pulled myself from her I looked at her and with a smile, I completed "And I mean it!"

　　She looked taken aback for a second but then composed herself and smiling at the people who were intently watching us turned on her heels and disappeared into the crowd.

　　I hope she doesn't trail after him again...

　　"Juliette!" I smiled to myself and turned around to face Zachary.

　　"We are leaving right now!" he whispered-yelled at me and narrowed his eyes at me when I opened my mouth to speak as if warning me not speak a word.

　　"But what about this party?" I asked as I followed him while he took long strides to get out of the hall.

　　"Party can go to hell," I heard him mutter which immediately made me giggle. But I stopped when he turned and glared at me.

　　"After you gentleman," I held the door open for him as I gestured him to walk out first.

　　He looked at me and muttering "what an Idiot...Clown!" he walked out and I followed him laughing silently at him.

　　As we walked past the guards who tried to stop me when I first came here from entering looked at in shock and in horror when they saw Zachary walking out with anger emitting from his body. Probably, they thought I have complained about the incident to him and he was here to fire them but to their shock, Zachary walked past them without even bothering to witnessing their presence. I ran after him out of the hall but stopped and looked back at the guards who were still looking our way. I winked at them comically, letting them know that everything is alright. They looked taken aback for a second but then smiled at me and to each other looking relieved.

　　"Juliette!" roared the tiger.

　　"Ah! Coming!" I yelled and followed Zachary out of the building.
