Their Villain, The Mogul's Beloved

Chapter 350

After dinner, Maisie had her driver take Zinnia home, and she casually sent Yannis a message to let him know Zinnia had been safely delivered.

The next second, Maisie received a text message: [Payment received, 300 thousand dollars.] Delighted, she sent Yannis two kneeling thank–you stickers. She thought, Yannis may be scary, but when it comes to money. he delivers.

When Zinnia got back, Yannis hadn’t returned. Every light in the house was on as always. Ever since her first visit, she’d never seen the place dark, day or night.

Zinnia messaged Yannis to let him know she was home.

Yannis replied right away: [I’ll be back very late tonight. Lock the doors and windows, and message me if you need anything.]

Zinnia replied: [Okay.]

Zinnia entered her room and carefully put away what she had brought back from the Lynn residence. She thought she should find time to check the house her Master had prepared for her.

Looking around the redecorated room, she thought, ‘I won’t be staying here long anyway. All this is

unnecessary.

Pushing aside her thoughts, Zinnia went to wash up. The lingering smell of chili con carne was still on her. By the time she finished, it was nearly nine o’clock, and Yannis still wasn’t back.

Zinnia sat at her vanity and picked up her phone. She was ready to send the photo she took earlier that day to Jackson.

But when she pressed the power button, she found her phone was dead. Not being much of a phone person, she hadn’t even noticed. With a sigh, she put it on the charger.

Bored, Zinnia dug out her homework. Since she had other plans for the next day, she figured she might as well get her homework done now.

As time ticked by, Zinnia felt a little thirsty. She left her room to get some water. But just as she stepped out, she heard the front door open. Curious, Zinnia headed toward the entrance.

Yannis as they came in, Zinnia hurried over, calling out,
