Cherished By Seven Sisters Novel
Chapter 16

Lance’s face went as black as thunder. Before he lost his temper, a seductive voice drifted into the airout of the blue. “Why are you wearing such a dark look, Mr. Trump?” All the patrons looked over in thedirection of the voice and were immediately floored. A beautiful lady was slowly descending the stairsfrom the second floor of the bar, her slender waist swaying slightly, even as her shapely legs led theway ahead. She was dressed in a magnificent red gown, complemented by a pair of bright silver highheels. She looked like a lofty queen descending from her throne. In truth, she was Yelena Lynch, whowas dubbed Rose Queen, the mysterious owner of Nightrose Bar. Everyone had a besotted look intheir eyes. They had long since heard that the mysterious owner of Nightrose was a top-notch beautywho was S**y and enticing. Beholding her then, they found that the rumors were indeed true. A faintsmile played on Yelena’s lips, the bright red shade seemingly exuding a lethal allure. When shereached Cordelia, the crowd plunged into a trance for a moment. To their surprise, the two stellarbeauties were not the least inferior to each other when they stood side by side. The only difference wasCordelia was aloof while Yelena was charming, just like ice and fire. Their combination was downrightfatal. “Mr. Trump?” Lance had also gotten lost in Yelena’s appeal. Only when the latter called his namesoftly that he jolted back to reality. “Ms. Yelena, it’s not that I deliberately wanted to kick up a fuss atyour bar, but this despicable couple played me for a fool just now. I merely want to seek justice formyself.” “Really?” Yelena chuckled seductively. Without warning, she turned to Cordelia and said, “Hecalled you despicable, my dearest sister.” Sister? At once, Lance’s expression froze. At the same time,the crowd went into an uproar. Never had they expected the two rare and stunning beauties to besisters. Sure enough, birds of a feather flock together! Cordelia had drunk quite a lot of red wine, so hercheeks were flushed. Nonetheless, her voice remained cold as she replied, “Have him slap himself,then.” “Okay.” Whirling around, Yelena regarded Lance with a bright smile. “Mr. Trump, my sisterdoesn’t like your remark earlier. She asked that you slap yourself.” Lance did not need her repeating itas he heard Cordelia loud and clear. Even so, he was still a touch bewildered. Yelena continued, “If youcan’t bring yourself to do it, I can have someone else help you out. Or shall I talk to your father about itpersonally?” Despite the perpetual smile on her face, Lance felt as though she was a queen and her

words a royal decree. “N-No, it’s okay. I’ll do it myself.” Ultimately, he was defeated by her powerfulaura. He obediently slapped himself a few times before slinking away. It was only then that Yelenastudied Emrys closely. “Who’s this?” “Oh, he’s my boyfriend. His surname’s Lund,” Cordelia answeredbefore Emrys could say anything. She went according to her plan to give Yelena a surprise. Asexpected, a trace of surprise showed in Yelena’s lovely eyes. “Boyfriend?” She eyed Emryssuspiciously. Emrys nodded. Yelena’s expression shifted. Grabbing Cordelia’s hand, she dragged herto the side and whispered, “Is he really your boyfriend, Delia? Or are you joking with me?” “Don’t youthink he looks a lot like someone we know? On top of that, his surname is the same,” Cordelia said.Naturally, Yelena knew who she was referring to. “I know you miss Rys greatly. I miss him, too. But youcan’t simply offer yourself to this man just because he looks a lot like Rys!” Unfortunately, Cordeliaturned a deaf ear to the advice. Instead, she batted her eyelashes and said, “Let me ask yousomething, Lena. Do you still remember that we made a pact when we were young, vowing to marrythe same man when we grow up?” In response, Yelena bobbed her head. Of course, I remember that.It was just a joke during our childhood. “I’ve already decided to marry him, so I came over this time tointroduce him to you. That aside, I’ll be bringing him to meet the others.” Cordelia’s statement was soshocking that Yelena’s eyes instantly widened in fright. She hurriedly placed her delicate hand againstCordelia’s forehead. “You’re not running a fever, are you, Delia?” Verily, she could not believe Cordeliawould say such a thing when the latter had always been an exceedingly sensible person. Ignoring herastonished gaze, Cordelia continued, “I’ve already asked my boyfriend, and he doesn’t mind living withus all.” When Yelena heard that, her face darkened. Isn’t that to be expected? He’ll be more than gladto do so when we’re all beyond outstanding! How could he possibly mind it? And how could she fail tounderstand that? Could it be that love really makes one’s IQ drop? Oh God, she must have lost hermind! Since I’m not getting through to her, I’ve got no choice but to talk to her boyfriend. Unbeknownstto her, a sly smile suddenly bloomed on Cordelia’s face when her back was turned. Cordelia threwEmrys a look. It was as though she was saying that she had finished her part, and he was up next.Grasping her meaning, Emrys started arrogantly, “You’re Cordelia’s younger sister who ranks third,yes? Since Cordelia has told you everything, I’m not going to repeat it again. I hope you won’t be

unreasonable about it.” Yelena was utterly dumbfounded. Good Lord! What kind of person is he? Shegritted her teeth in frustration. He’s the typical kind of man who’s putting up a haughty act after gainingan advantage! What a sc*mbag! “I think we can go upstairs for a chat.” Although she was seethinginwardly, she still maintained her regal air, merely shooting him an icy glare. It went without saying thatEmrys would never turn that offer down. When they were heading upstairs, Emrys followed behindYelena, silently admiring her bewitching figure. Witnessing that, the crowd went green with envy. Theyhad no idea why Emrys was so lucky that he not only won over an aloof goddess but also received aninvitation to the VIP room alone from Rose Queen herself. Truly, comparisons would only render oneinferior. The elegant VIP room had excellent sound insulation. Once the door was closed, the noisesfrom outside were cut off completely. Emrys sensed a chill pervading the air. Yelena sat on the leathercouch with her legs crossed, her bright silver high heels seemingly emanating a frosty light. Her regalaura was fully unleashed. “Have a seat,” she ordered coldly. With a chuckle, Emrys went right over andplopped down beside her instead of sitting on the couch across from her. Immediately, Yelena frowned,and a trace of revulsion showed in her lovely eyes. Argh! This sc*mbag is simply insolent! If it weren’tfor Delia, I’d have definitely chopped him into pieces! She had a flashback to the past when Joseph,the playboy from the Chalker family in the North River District, had paid no mind to the law and ruinedcountless girls just because he had an influential background. In the end, she truly could not standwatching anymore and found an opportunity and castrated the man. If this man here steps out of linetoday, I don’t mind granting Jadeboroug
