Chapitre 90: Chapter 98 She was pathetic…

( JASMIN POV's )

I was lost at the sight of the night sky. 

Although I gleam like the stars, there was nothing behind me but a dark void.

But there was Rhio. Like the big moon that shone above us all. Calm and mysterious; its far side still unknown to everybody.

"Beautiful, isn't it?" a voice came from behind me. "Oh why, aren't you alone?"

It was Deo.

My smile didn't reach my eyes, "No thanks. Why…why didn't you tell me the truth early?"

"If a billionaire asks you not to, you can't," Deo played with his glass, "That's how my job works."
