"So what? Even if he did divorce me, at least, once in our life we became husband and husband! How about you? Do you think my husband will marry someone not as good looking as me?" Evren rebuked with utmost confidence
Although the guy in front of him is not bad in terms of looks, very handsome even, compared to Evren, this guy still paled in comparison
Evren was already handsome prior to meeting Azarel. Now that he was wearing expensive clothes that seems to have been tailored for him, his level of attractiveness even increases!
This unknown 3rd rate villain is nothing in front of him!
"Fuck you!" The man raged before throwing punches at Evren
However, with the life Evren had led until now, how can he lose to a man born with a golden spoon in his mouth?
Evren already lose count of how many people he beat or run away from (most of them are the ones he scammed or the ones that become obsessed with him)
As such, the result was not that hard to determine

Back at the Manor
As soon as Azarel finished showering, he immediately head out his room. Every inch of his body was screaming excitement
After inquiring where his dog was waiting for him, Azarel immediately went to the living room, or at least one of the living rooms in the Manor
In there, laying inside a large and soft dog bed, a golden retriever can be seen biting a bone toy
When the dog saw its owner, it immediately became excited
The dog stood up from its bed and run towards Azarel with its tail waggling in excitement
Azarel was also overjoyed at finally seeing his precious dog again and he crouched down to hug the big and clearly overweight dog
"Dukeeee, my precious Dukeeee. Did these bastards mistreated you? Did they fed and played with you enough? Were you lonely without me? Did you miss me?" Azarel immediately bombarded the dog with endless questions as if Duke could answer him
He was even rubbing his cheeks into his dog's soft fur that was maintained with the most expensive and high quality shampoo
Duke also don't have the nasty smell that most dogs has and Azarel loves cuddling with him
If Azael and his daughters were here, they might vomit blood on the spot
How come that Azarel in front of them was like a tiger ready to bite any time but in front of a mere dog, he was like the silliest and goofiest father of all time?
What is with this disgustingly different level of treatment?! How come Azarel's blood relatives can't even be compared to a dog?
"Arf! Arf! Arf!" Duke barked excitedly and it even tried to lick Azarel on the face but the man dodges him
"No, no, no. You know that I love you but your tongue and my face are off limits! I still need this handsome face of mine, what if I got allergic reaction from your saliva?" Azarel scolded yet his tone was still as gentle as before
"Awuu" Duke wailed pitifully but no matter how much he tried to do that, Azarel wouldn't budge since his face is really off limits to everyone
"Don't be sad, buddy. Daddy will play with you all day!" Azarel coaxed him and he had the servants fetch all the dog toys that the Manor has
Since the two hasn't met each other for almost a week, Azarel really did play with Duke for hours
He only has to stop when he received a phone call from his assistant/secretary
"Your call better be an important one for interrupting my precious time!" Azarel said in displeasure
"Well sir, it seems like we would need your precious time to take care of a problem" Glynn replied, unbothered by how much displeased her boss was
Hearing that, a frown appeared in Azarel's face as he strokes his dog's fur
"What is the problem?" He asks
"One of our investors back out before they signed the contract and this said investor is also quite an important one. Some of thr artists that are going to sign under our company might back out without this investor" Glynn explained and Azarel's frown deepened
"Who was it? Do they think I'm vegetarian? Just because my company is only just about to be launch doesn't mean they can play tricks on me!" Azarel said coldly
A company that already has its own history and consolidated its power is surely the one that people would not take lightly off
However, just because Azarel doesn't have his own company yet doesn't mean that he cannot cause the downfall of an entire company
"It's the owner of the Hashtag Publishing, sir. The reasons he gave for backing out is vague but he said that he might change his mind if you talk to him personally" Glynn replied
Hashtag Publishing, with Azarel's excellent memory, he recalled the things he know about that company
As far as he can remember, he only met the COO before to negotiate the terms
The COO don't have much demands and most of the terms were favorable for Azarel
Although he felt that it was weird, at that time, because of the COO, he only thought that they want to have a partnership with him because of his family background
After all, the COO seems to be even trying to curry favor with him
Hashtag Publishing has quite the number of famous novels that would be turn into series or dramas
To celebrities, it was not only the talent fee that they would look at. They would also look at the resources that the company has
Hashtag Publishing is already in Azarel's radar. It's just that because it was a Publishing Company, he only thought about having a partnership with them not having their owner as a shareholder of his own company
However, it was the Hashtag Publishing that reaches out with Azarel first. Although he wants to create his own company, Azarel is also not the 'I refuse to accept help if that is only because of my family background' type of person
If something or someone is helpful and beneficial to him then he would not allow his pride to meddle with him
As such, Azarel decided to let the Hashtag Publishing's CEO and Owner to be a shareholder of the company he is going to start
Not to mention, he has not met the said owner and only the company's COO
Now, the owner that seek out Evren first was actually backing out? How can this not anger Azarel?
"He wants to talk with me? Sure, I'll talk to him" Azarel said darkly before recalling the appearance of that bastard
It was a typical old man with almost all of his hair turning white due to his old age. He can't seem to recall any instances where he might possibly offend him
"I'll send it later sir but may I give my opinion?"
As Glynn is a capable woman that can even start her own company, Azarel naturally not take her opinion lightly and he encourage her to say whatever is in her mind
"From our previous meeting, the COO is clearly trying to impress you, sir. For them to suddenly back out, I can list a few reasons for that but the most likely ones are either you offended them or your father forced them. However, since the other side said that they might change their mind if you meet them, I think it was more of the former than the latter. I must ask you now, sir, did you offend the owner or not?"
Azarel rolled his eyes at that. He knows the appearance of his prospective business partners and if they don't offend him first, he naturally won't offend them
As Azarel is the an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth guy, he would almost not forget the faces of people that he comes to hate
He didn't offend the owner nor did the owner offended him. That should not be the case, right?
"No, I am sure that I didn't even cross paths with the owner"
"Are you sure, sir? From what I found out, the owner attended the Lancaster Family's Gala. You might have offended them at that time"
The Gala...? As it was just yesterday, Azarel's memories were still clear
However, after staying in the party for a bit, his plans with Evren already started
Where would he have time to offend anyone? Unless, that bastard is a homophobe that becomes disgusted by his 'play'
However, that should not be the case as Azarel's personality and homosexuality is far from being a secret
"My answer is still the same. But no worries, if they think they can just back our when they are the one that seeks me first.. They are completely mistaken. I'll make them pay for making a fool out of me!" Azarel said with a sneer, already formulating a plan in his mind
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"So what? Even if he did divorce me, at least, once in our life we became husband and husband! How about you? Do you think my husband will marry someone not as good looking as me?" Evren rebuked with utmost confidence
