100 Days to Seduce the Devil-Chapter 4 The New Rising Star

Axel and the other bodyguards tried their best to hold their laughter. The heavy atmosphere was long gone and it had been replaced by a cheerful one because of their little young master who was very enthusiastic about finding his future wife!

At the same time, Old Man Xu burst out into a peal of laughter before patting the young boy's head. Little Ethan was too young to get a wife and marry someone. But he could understand the boy's inner feelings. He might be longing for a mother's love. And Nathan could never give that to him. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝒆we𝒃𝘯𝒐νe𝑙.co𝚖

Since his father, Nathan, didn't show any interest in women, Ethan might have given up the idea of finding a new mother and a wife for Nathan. The little boy had been asking Nathan if he likes another woman or if he would like to marry someone. But this cold-hearted man just ignored his question, changing the topic as always.

So instead of saying he found a wife-to-be for Nathan, he just claimed it as his wife-to-be.

On the other hand, Nathan was already looking at Old Man Xu with his scrutinizing gaze. Nothing was funny about this so he got annoyed because, instead of correcting his grandson's line of thought, this old man just chose to laugh out loud!

But he was not in the right place to lecture the old man since Nathan, himself, was also spoiling Little Ethan and granting his every wish (except for marrying a woman)! 𝒇𝑟e𝙚𝑤𝙚𝐛𝗻𝐨ν𝚎𝘭.c𝐨m

Not wanting to hurt the boy's feelings, Nathan maintained his neutral expression in front of Little Ethan. But deep inside, he was already constructing a statement, explaining to Ethan that he was still too young to marry someone!

"Dad, are you mad at me? Why are you not saying a word? Your gaze looks frightening! You are scaring Uncle Axel, my nanny, and the bodyguards here," Little Ethan put on a pitiful look when he delivered those words.

Axel bit his lower lip trying to suppress his laughter, but he was having a hard time holding back. Aside from Old Man Xu, Little Ethan was the only person who could tell their Big Boss straight to his face that he was scary!

Meanwhile, the nanny and the bodyguards glanced at Little Ethan with their dreamy eyes. He was indeed their salvation! This Devil won't lay a finger at them if their little Angel was there, supporting and protecting them.

"I'm not mad. I'm not scaring them," Nathan plainly said, defending himself. Then he stared at his men, giving them a warning look.

'Liar! Boss, you are a big liar!' Axel thought to himself while smiling sheepishly at Nathan. The other bodyguards just looked away, feigning ignorance.

"Dad! Don't worry. I'm certain that you will like her! She is as beautiful as my Mom!"

Old Man Xu just smiled cheerfully, ignoring Nathan's deathly glare. He even raised his two thumbs as support to Little Ethan's claim.

"Good job, my grandson! I can't wait to meet your 'future wife'." The old man said meaningfully, his eyes fixed on his son's face as if those words were intended for Nathan, not to Little Ethan.

'Yeah, maybe Big Boss just needs a woman in his life for us to finally relax.'

Others already wished for their CEO to find someone who would control his temper. Nathan was very strict and aloof towards his staff and employees. He seldom smiles. He was in a grumpy mood most of the time.

But his attitude was very different when in front of their young master's presence. He was very doting, pampering the young boy as if he was his rule.

"Dad, come with me. I'll bring you to her," Little Ethan swayed his arm with a slight pull.

Nathan hesitated long for a moment but his wall collapsed almost immediately after seeing Ethan's pleading eyes and pitiful expression.

He couldn't refuse him and reluctantly said "Okay. Let's go."

"Yes!" The young boy jumped in excitement.

Even the bodyguards and other staff rejoiced inwardly, almost shouting the word 'Yes!' which the young master had just uttered.

Following Nathan from behind, Ethan motioned Old Man Xu and Axel to stay behind. Everyone in the room heaved a sigh of relief when the mighty CEO and the little young master finally left the office. Yes! They had just survived a calamity!

Meanwhile, waiting in the lobby of the SYP Twilight Corporation Building, a woman in a plain white shirt matched with a denim jacket and blue pants was silently observing her surroundings like a hawk!

When someone would pass by her corner and take a glance at her, she would lower her black cap and fix her mask to hide her face from the public.

She was very cautious not to be seen by others. Currently, she's the hottest topic in the news and internet headlines.

~~**News Headlines**~~

[ Abigail "Abi" Scarlett, a new rising star in the Entertainment Industry, was rushed to the hospital! ]

[ Abigail Scarlett, an actress of the Star Corp Entertainment, commits suicide by jumping off the 13th Floor at Centerville Hotel! ]

If anyone could see her, people might wonder. She was supposed to be in a critical condition, lying in the ICU and being treated by the doctor. But here she was alive and unharmed as if she didn't fall from the 13th floor of the building!

People, who saw her body bathing in her own blood in front of the Centerville Hotel just three hours ago, would think that this was a miracle!

But little did they know, someone else's soul was now occupying the body of this new rising star.

"Where is he?" she murmured to herself, sweeping her eyes across the lobby as she searched for someone. Seconds later, her gaze stopped in the direction of the elevator. She caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.

When the man raised his head, their eyes accidentally met for a moment, his pair of blue eyes settling on her emerald ones. She felt like she had forgotten to breathe because of his penetrating gaze.

'Uh-oh, here comes the Devil!'
