As we drive to the main ballroom, I can't help but look over at the man standing before me. His tall figure contrasts sharply against the fading sunlight, casting a long shadow that stretches across the pavement. As we exit the car and walk up to the front gates, he gently takes hold of my hand with a firm yet reassuring grip. The touch sends a jolt of electricity through my body, a mix of excitement and apprehension coursing through my veins.370Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUrDVGQBtl
"Happy faces," he said through a forced grin, his eyes glimmering with mischief, "we need to act like a real couple, remember?" His voice is low and velvety, resonating with a hidden intensity that seems to both intrigue and captivate everyone around us. With his grip on my hand, he leads me inside, his presence commanding the attention of those in our vicinity.370Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1mJRtqPV3
As soon as we stepped into the elegantly decorated ballroom, a sea of people swarms around us, their voices intertwining into a cacophony of greetings and compliments. "Mr. Lee," one woman exclaims, her voice tinged with admiration, "you look dashing as always!" "Hello sir," another man greets respectfully, his tone filled with reverence. "Good to see you," someone else chimes in, the sincerity evident in their voice. Amidst the flurry of attention, I try my best to answer the questions thrown our way, struggling to keep up with the rapid pace of the introductions.370Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohW5jN0gny
Lost in the commotion, a sudden tug at my wrist startles me, pulling me out of the whirlwind surrounding Ace and me. I turn my head to find a mysterious man standing beside me, his pale complexion contrasting with his long, flowing blonde locks and piercing green eyes. He is dressed in a pale blue suit with a pristine white tie, an ensemble that exudes sophistication and elegance. "Hello, ma'am," he says with a polite smile, his voice carrying a hint of concern, "Sorry I grabbed you like that, but you seemed like you needed help." A blush creeps onto my cheeks as I stammer my response, overwhelmed by the unexpected encounter. "Y-yes, thank you."370Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtl69oHYp40
Just as I start to regain my composure, Ace's firm grip on my shoulders pulls me backwards into his protective embrace, his arms encircling me possessively. His sudden closeness sends a shiver down my spine, a mix of exhilaration and uncertainty coursing through me. The mysterious man's smile widens as he recognizes Ace. "Hello Ace," he greets cordially, his voice filled with familiarity. Ace returns the smile, his charm on full display. "I see you've met my girlfriend, Loise." The mention of my name sends a tremor of unease through my body, as if I am being thrust into a spotlight I am not quite ready for. The man's gaze shifts to me, his green eyes gleaming with a mixture of surprise and intrigue. "Ah yes," he purrs, his voice dripping with a calculated charm as he leans down to kiss my hand, a gesture that catches Ace off guard. The air crackles with tension, a subtle power play unfolding right before my eyes. "Nice to meet you, my lady," he adds, his words laced with an undeniable edge.370Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRpmPugFxH
Ace's grip tightens around me, causing me to involuntarily squeal. The possessiveness in his action sends a jolt of fear coursing through me, like a warning sign flashing in my mind. In a swift motion, he spins me around so that I am no longer facing the enigmatic man named Loise. "Stay away from her," Ace growls, his voice dripping with a mixture of possessiveness and protectiveness. "She's mine." As Ace's declaration hangs in the air, a single word echoes in my mind, growing louder and more resonant with each passing moment: obsession.
