Their Villain, The Mogul's Beloved

Chapter 452

Without realizing it, Zinnia found Yannis’s bewitchingly beautiful face surfacing in her mind.

65 vouchers.

She had been with Yannis for several months now. During that twhen she couldn’t move, he stayed by her

side night after night. He had held her, fed her, braided her hair, and whispered sweet nothings to comfort

her.

Her dazed gaze gradually focused, only to find his face suddenly so close-enlarged before her eyes. His long,

mesmerizing eyes locked with hers as his warm, slightly damp breath gently caressed her soft cheek.

For a split second, Zinnia felt her heart speed up.

While she was lost in thought, Zinnia heard Yannis speak.

“Is it me?”

His voice was soft and measured, laced with anticipation.

Zinnia felt her heart pounding against her chest. She frowned, thinking, ‘This tmy emotions are really out of

control.

‘It used to just feel like little ants crawling around, but now my heart's actually jumping. It's not beating that fast,

but I can clearly feel it going quicker than usual.

Zinnia couldn't quite put a nto what she was feeling. Almost without thinking, she pressed her hand to her

chest, frowning slightly as she gently rubbed the spot, hoping the strange flutter in her heart would calm down

soon.

“Zinnia.” Yannis’s voice, deep and crystal-clear, murmured in her ear.

Zinnia snapped out of her daze. “Huh? What's up?”

“Zinnia, why are you staring atlike you're lost in thought?” Yannis’s lips curled into a playful smile, his eyes

crinkling at the corners as they held her reflection.

Zinnia thought he was about to say something important. She reached out and pushed his head away.

“Seriously, you're the one who shoved your face in front of me,” she complained, her tone dripping with

annoyance.

She was just trying to think, and he had to stick his big head right in her face.

“Alright, my bad. So, have you made up your mind yet?” Yannis obediently moved his head away as she pushed,

but the moment her hand left, he cright back close to her.

“Thought about what?” Zinnia feigned ignorance.

“Who's the second person in your heart? Is it me?” Yannis smiled, his eyes never leaving hers, as if he was trying

to peer straight into her soul for the answer he so desperately wanted.

“No,” Zinnia snapped irritably. She was just trying to figure it out when he suddenly shoved his face right in front

of hers. Now she couldn't even tell if it was him.

“No?” Yannis’s face visibly fell, the light in his eyes fading like ripples on a still pond, leaving behind an

undisguised melancholy.

“It's your fault for suddenly shoving your face in front of me,” Zinnia muttered under her breath. “If you hadn't

interruptedlike that, | might've figured out whether it was you or not.”

“So... what you mean is-if | hadn't cover, you would've picked me?” Yannis, ever quick to pick up on cues,

couldn't hide his delight as his face visibly lit up.

“I don’t know,” Zinnia muttered. Yannis was seriously way too good at twisting her words and way too full of

himself. Truth be told, even she wasn’t sure if it was him.

“So when you say ‘I don’t know, it means I'm one of your options. You just haven't decided yet,” Yannis said,

quick to twist her words. He just wanted her to admit he had a place in her heart; only then could his anxious

heart find speace.

Zinnia fell silent. ‘Well... he’s not wrong, she thought. Before she even noticed Yannis leaning in, his face had

already surfaced in her mind, almost instinctively.

But when she snapped back to reality and found his face right in front of hers, she suddenly couldn't tell whether

the person she'd been thinking about was actually him.

“Ugh, you're so annoying. You messed up my train of thought,” Zinnia grumbled, tugging at Yannis’s hair in

frustration. “If you hadn't cover here, | could've figured it out myself!”

Yannis indulged her, letting Zinnia tug at his hair. When she struggled to get a good grip, he even leaned his

head in closer. It was her habit. Whenever she threw a little tantrum, she’d always go for his hair.

The last tZinnia had a fever, Yannis tried to cool her forehead with a towel. She wouldn't cooperate,

mumbling and grumbling, maybe even cursing him for waking her up. Suddenly, she grabbed his hair and kept

tugging at it, until she finally settled down.

Sometimes, when Yannis wasn’t looking, Zinnia would twirl his hair around her fingers until it ended up in little

knots. When he caught her, she’d just give him a sheepish little grin.

Yannis once asked her why she only tugged at his hair. She replied, “I can’t bear to pull my own. My hair is so

silky. I'd hate to lose even a single strand.” Whenever she pulled his hair, she always ended up pulling out a few.

Yannis let out an exasperated laugh.

Realizing how that sounded, Zinnia added with an awkward chuckle, “But your hair is really nice.”

Yannis simply humored her mixed signals of annoyance and affection. Thank goodness | have thick hair, he

thought wryly, ‘or it wouldn't survive her constant tugging.

“You're the one who's wrong. Why do you keep bombardingwith questions? Don’t you know | only have one

brain? First this, then that. Are you skind of question machine?” Zinnia huffed.

She could only process one thing at a time, but today Yannis had thrown so many questions at her that her brain

had turned to complete mush.

“Alright, one last question then.” Yannis humored her, his eyes dancing with unconcealed mirth.

Without warning, Zinnia found herself so close to Yannis that she froze, caught completely off-guard. Her fingers

tightened around her cup, her breath hitching slightly.

Staring at the magnified version of his strikingly handsface, with flawless bone structure, she was

overwhelmed by the intense visual impact.

Yannis was honestly handsome. And his voice was almost hypnotic, pulling people right into everything he said.

‘Is there anyone else besides him?‘ Zinnia’s mind went completely blank. No, there wasn’t. When it cto who

mattered most, it was only Yannis. No other possibilities even crossed her mind.

Over these past few months, Yannis had woven himself into every corner of Zinnia's life. Whenever she thought

about anything, his face was always the first to pop into her mind.

“No,” Zinnia said. The moment the words left her lips, she saw Yannis’s beautiful eyes lit up, sparkling with pure,

unrestrained joy.
