His Wicked Obsession (Archer and Virginia) novel Chapter 247

Three days later. Capital City Arena.

As night fell, the arena roared with life, the crowd transforming into a massive, glowing sea of blue light sticks.

Virginia wore a simple, elegant white French blouse paired with black wide-leg trousers, her long hair pulled up into a sleek, high ponytail.

With a touch of light makeup, she radiated a cool, untouchable grace.

Following the seat number on her ticket, she found her spot right in the dead center of the front row. The seat next to her was empty, but she paid it no mind.

Her mind was entirely consumed by imagining how brilliantly her brother was going to shine on that stage.

The arena lights gradually dimmed, and a massive countdown flashed across the screens.

Just then, a tall, wildly imposing figure strode out from the VIP tunnel and sat down gracefully in the empty seat right beside her.

Virginia instinctively turned her head, curious to see what kind of demographic made up her brother's fanbase.

When she turned, she locked eyes with a face she knew intimately—Archer.

He was wearing a bespoke light gray shirt with the top two buttons undone. His pale, striking complexion and the ebony beads on his wrist caught the shifting hues of the stage lights.

He didn't do a single thing, simply sitting there with his gaze fixed forward, yet his very presence radiated an aura of elite, untouchable authority that clashed wildly with the frenzied, chaotic energy of the crowd.

Feeling her gaze, the man turned his head.

When their eyes met, there wasn't a single trace of surprise in his.

Virginia snapped back to reality, her breath hitching slightly.

She didn't ask him why he was there. If he was here with a VIP ticket, her brother had obviously invited him. And judging by his absolute calm, he already knew she would be sitting here.

Archer didn't speak. He just watched her quietly, a deeply complex, indecipherable emotion swirling in his dark eyes.

Bang!

Fireworks erupted across the stage, and the music blasted through the speakers.

Miles launched up from the stage elevator, his sequined jacket blindingly bright under the spotlights.
