Third Person PoV

"Welcome, Mistress Diana. We have been expecting you."

Diana turned her attention to the hostess before offering her hand. The hostess reached for her hand before kissing Diana's ring on her finger. 

"What's the reason for your master to summon me out of the blue?"

Diana asked. The hostess looked up and said,

"My master heard that the lady has found the last heir to the Larove. He wants to know some of the details."

Diana hummed before she followed the hostess to where her master was. Diana clicked her tongue in annoyance as she thought of the man's habit of prying into someone else's matter.

"Mistress Diana, please don't be mad at my master. He doesn't mean to pry into your matter, but if it's true that the last heir to the Larove exists, then wouldn't it be wise for you to work together? After all, the Christ family is the maternal family of the Larove, is it not?"

Diana didn't say anything. The hostess stopped before a massive double door decorated with the world's most precious gems. The Christ family has been around for hundreds of years, and they are famous for being a crime family that exploits underground businesses.

But now, the Christ are more focused on building their empire through legal businesses such as construction, hotels, etc.

"Master, mistress Diana has arrived."

The current head of the Christ family, Damien IV, stood up from his seat and smiled at Diana.

"Diana, how long has it been since we last met? You don't seem to age at all. What is your secret, huh?"

Damian IV kissed Diana's hand before offering her a seat on the sofa.

"It's been ten years since we last met. Imagine my surprise when you summoned me to be here. I was shocked and disgusted."

Diana remained nonchalant as Damian IV acted like Diana's words hurt him.

"Diana, your words wounded me. Can't you cut me some slack? Anyway, would you like to drink? We have all sorts of beverages available. I am recently in a coffee and tea business. It's selling quite well."

Diana reached out for a packet of tea that was on the table.

"Yes- I heard. I would like to have a cup of this tea."

Damian IV nodded before he told the hostess to leave the room. The hostess nodded before she excused herself. Damian IV decided to make the tea himself before serving it to Diana.

"Mistress, I miss you."

Diana watched as the great Damian IV kneeled on the floor, reaching for her leg before kissing it.

"Damian, you're a dignified man in front of others. Don't lower yourself for my sake."

Damian IV looks up to Diana with a flustered expression.

"How can I not? I am in the presence of a goddess."

Diana crossed her legs with a smile on her face.

"Damian, is there a reason for me to be here? If this is all, I might as well leave now."

Diana sniffed the aromatic scent of the tea before she took a few sips.

"Oh, yes. Is the last heir to the Larove exists?"

Diana contemplates if she should tell the man the truth. In the end, she nodded her head yes.
