All too late for his love

Chapter 280

lan thought it was perhaps fate. Fate seemed to have woven lan's and Willow's paths together and would be leading them through a journey of highs and lows. Indeed, he was ready to fall for her. As Eric closely watched lan, he had a good sense of what lan had decided.

With

a smile, Eric turned to lan and exclaimed, "Boss, that Influencer, Willow, she's incredible! Our Arena of Glory could really use someone like her as a brand ambassador Boss-"

"I'm not feeling well, Eric," lan interrupted.

His

unexpected words stunned Eric.

Eric stared at lan, who maintained his usual poise, and asked cautiously, "Boss, where do you feel unwell? Don't worry. I'll call the doctor right away!"

"My heart, Eric. It's pounding like never before," lan said, causing Eric to nearly choke on his own saliva as he rushed to dial the private doctor.

Eric hated to laugh in front of lan, who was more intimidating than the Grim Reaper, but he couldn't contain himself this time. He chuckled uncontrollably.

lan was undeniably sharp and skilled but too pure. Yet, it was unsurprising. Considering lan's strict boundary of never letting a woman get closer than six feet, his innocence in matters of the heart was only to be expected.

"Boss, um... you might be lovestruck," Eric said honestly.

lan shot him a sharp glance, causing Eric to backtrack hastily.

"No, no, Boss. You're just experiencing the first stirrings of love!"

lan eyed the empty stage suspiciously. First stirrings of love? For a woman? Unbelievable! This was too

peculiar and he needed time to process it.

Meanwhile, Zayn seethed as he watched Willow gracefully leave the stage with a downward gaze.

How dare she flaunt her flirtatious charms and hold the audience spellbound, all while barefoot once again. Zayn wondered if she was oblivious to the magnetic allure of her bare feet.

Zayn remained unmoved earlier as Skyler attempted to ooze seduction on stage. Yet, the mere thought that every man had beheld Willow's delicately fair feet, the graceful sway of her legs beneath her flowing skirt, and nurtured impure fantasies about her was just too much for him to bear.

His anger skyrocketed when the gaming company suddenly crowned Willow as the new brand ambassador of Arena of Glory.

Was she addicted to flaunting herself under the spotlight? Wasn't it enough to strut her stuff in front of a small crowd? Now she even almed to showcase herself in front of the entire nation.

Zayn spun around, determined to nab Willow for her brazen antics, when Wilhelmina's anxious voice

echoed through the hall.

"Matt, my bracelet is missing! Has anyone seen it? If any of you catch sight of it, could you please let me know? It's very important to me." The

Noticing tears threatened to spill from Wilhelmina's eyes, Matthew couldn't help but ask, "Willa, which bracelet are you talking about?"

"Matt, it's the one your grandmother gave me when we first met! She said every daughter-in-law in the Mayer family receives one. Grandma will be upset if I lose it!

"I really cherish it, Matt. Earlier, I switched from the emerald bracelet m to the silver one for the audition and carefully kept the emerald one in my bag. I never imagined it would just vanish."

Wilhelmina turned, her captivating face marked by sincere desperation.

"The one I've lost is an emerald bracelet. Could everyone please help me search for it?"
