After finishing their meal, Diana tidied up the bowls and chopsticks. "I've eaten my fill, and I'm heading back to bed," she said.
"Little girl," John reached out and grabbed her wrist.
"What's up?" Diana turned back.
She had eaten, and now this obnoxious guy wanted more?
"If you're free next weekend, could you accompany me to the old Matthews estate?" John's deep gaze focused on her face. "Grandfather wants to see you."
"Mr. Harrison Matthews?" Diana fell into a momentary silence.
In her previous life, after causing a scene at the engagement banquet, Mr. Harrison Matthews ended up in the hospital due to her infuriating him. Her father had forced her to apologize at the old estate afterward, but her mind was troubled, and instead of apologizing, she had acted recklessly. Not only did she slap John's face, but she also shattered the image the Matthews family had of her.
Thinking about her past actions, Diana regretted them to th
Diana had undone a few buttons on her teddy bear pajamas, revealing her smooth and fair shoulders and a seductive collarbone. If he looked down, he could even catch a glimpse of tantalizing curves. A lump formed in John's throat. He recalled how she looked in that dress tonight. That was the moment he realized she was no longer the "little" girl he remembered. "You're done?" Diana lifted her head and glanced at him. "Yeah." John didn't say anything and walked over, sitting by her bedside. "What are you looking at?" "Comics." Diana put the book away and looked at his damp hair, suddenly smiling mischievously. "Your hair is still wet. Let me blow-dry it for you." "You're not angry anymore?" John's eyes flickered slightly, surprised. But then Diana hurriedly dashed to the bathroom, bringing out her own hairdryer and positioned herself in front of him. John: !!! What i
Reading comics? Are you kidding me? Leah rolled her eyes inwardly. "I love reading comics too. They're so romantic and fun. I—" As Lily leaned closer, she caught sight of a gory close-up panel. A woman with blood all over her face was holding an axe, dismembering someone, wearing a twisted smile. The smile froze on Lily's face. Wait a minute! Did she see it wrong? The cover looked all cute and innocent, but why was the content so gruesome?! No, the real question was, why was Leah reading this kind of stuff?! Shouldn't she be reading sweet and cute comics? "Bang!" A small white package dropped onto Lily's desk. Diana tilted her head, expressionless, glanced at Lily, and then turned to Leah. "Come over here, I need to talk to you." Diana?! It was that face again, the one that disgusted her the most. Lily sneered, "Diana, what gives you the right to sp
Diana turned her head and saw her own Colin desperately gripping the handlebar by the window, unintentionally leaning half of his body onto Leah. "Sorry!" Colin looked at the girl beneath him and quickly let go, readjusting his position. Leah lowered her gaze. "It's okay." Diana... she was willing to bet that this guy was definitely smirking! "Lynn, what happened? Why did you suddenly brake like that?" "Miss Thompson, there was a car blocking the road. I honked, thinking they would move," Lynn explained with a hint of difficulty. "Is it an empty car?" Curiosity piqued, Diana opened the car door and stepped outside, only to immediately retreat back into the vehicle upon seeing the familiar white Bentley. "What's going on?" Leah asked, perplexed. "The Big Boss has arrived!" As the words fell, a familiar figure slowly approached outside the car window. The man was dressed in a well-t
On the other side, Colin and Leah sat quietly in the car, as silent as two cats. Colin was not much of a talker to begin with, and being alone with a girl seemed to be a first for him. He had no clue what to say. Leah, on the other hand, sat poised by his side, appearing calm and composed. "Colin, besides astronomy, what else do you enjoy doing?" she asked. "I like reading," he replied. "Really?" Leah smiled slightly. "That's interesting because I also love reading!" With a hand supporting her chin, she continued, "Apart from books, I also enjoy reading comics." Colin asked, "What kind of comics?" "You know, the kind that young girls often read, sweet and romantic. Do you think I'm a bit childish?" "Not at all," Colin responded. A fleeting moment of contemplation crossed Colin's handsome face. She seemed just like any other young girl, nothing strange about her. Perhaps he had misundersto
"Not just that." Diana's smile disappeared, and she spoke slowly, "I implanted a tracking virus on Maddie's phone and discovered that she and Serena didn't actually leave Cloud City. They went to the Brown family.""The Brown family? William Brown's Brown family?""Yes."Diana leaned on her hand, her cute face showing a hint of confusion.This is strange.In the previous life, after Maddie became a popular star, she completely disregarded William, who had supported her all along.Moreover, the Browns are in the film and television business, while the Thompsons primarily focus on the restaurant industry. There's no connection between the two at all.The person behind Serena shouldn't be associated with the Browns logically.As she pondered, her phone, lying beside her, suddenly rang.She glanced at it and saw an unfamiliar number displayed on the screen.A prank call?Diana picked up the phone casually and a
"Compared to you? You're simply beneath me!" Scarlett sneered with disdain. Her gaze shifted back to Leah, who was on the ground, her eyes filled with mockery. "Look at you now, fallen to this state, hanging out with the notorious losers of Cloud City University. Leah, it seems you've finally realized your true self!" Leah weakly crawled up and grabbed Diana's sleeve. "Diana, don't argue with her." "Leah, don't worry, she won't lay a finger on you at the university." "That's right! Scarlett, stay away from our goddess, Leah!" The surrounding classmates were filled with righteous indignation. Their initial admiration for Scarlett, which kept a respectful distance, suddenly turned into deep dissatisfaction. Scarlett had initially intended to come and demonstrate her power, but unexpectedly became the target of everyone's criticism. She had never encountered such a situation before, and for a moment, her face turned pale, frozen in place. She looked at Leah, who seemed greatly wron
Meanwhile, Liam watched Diana's figure fade away and took out a cigarette, feeling lonely as he held it between his fingertips. He put on a pretense of depth and took a drag. Leah, standing beside him, waved away the drifting secondhand smoke. "It would be amusing if John saw your expression right now." Liam turned his head. "Forgot to ask, who are you?" Leah's lips twitched for a moment. How could he only notice such a stunning beauty beside him now? "I'm your Aunt Diana's sister-in-law. Who do you think I am?" Leah retorted. With that, she flicked her long hair and rolled her eyes at him before walking away with determined steps. Leaving Liam standing there, utterly bewildered. So, technically, this woman is also his aunt? ... On the other side. Diana rushed to the side, clearing her throat, and answered the call on her cellphone. "Hello?" "I'm at the entrance of the university." On the
The men around present felt a chill down their spines. They turned their heads and indeed, John's eyes were as icy as a winter storm, sending shivers down their spines! Don't twirl anymore! If she twirls a few more times, they'll lose their minds! "The back." John squeezed out two words. "The back?" Diana paused for a moment, then finally realized something. Is he criticizing me for revealing too much of my back?! This man and his damn possessiveness! Diana looked at herself in the mirror, pondered for a moment, and then a sweet smile appeared on her face. "No problem, I have a solution!" With that, she let down the curtain and changed out of the dress. After putting on her original clothes, Diana walked over to Samuel with the gown in her hands and extended her hand. "Do you have paper and pen?" "Right here!" Samuel took his design sketch and pen from the nearby table. "M
At another table, Frank sat staring at Liam in his smart suit, his brow slightly furrowed."Hey, been causing trouble lately?"Liam rolled his eyes, displeased. "No.""What's with the haircut then? Going for the military look?""My mom made me." Liam sipped his champagne. "She thought my old hairstyle looked too thug-like for Uncle John's wedding, so she took matters into her own hands.""No worries, I think this look suits you."Beside him, Rose tilted her head, looking at him with adoration."You know what? I think any look suits you, I just really like you.""Cough~"Liam choked a bit.He cleared his throat, "Don't say such things in front of everyone.""Sure, sorry~" Rose nodded obediently.Frank thought to himself, Damn. Even my bro's nephew is showing off in front of me? Can't let this slide!He turned to Jenny with a mischievous grin."Jenny, do you think my hairstyle looks good
Upon arriving, she put her hands on her hips, adopting an accusatory posture."Look at this, I left for just a moment, and you're already being targeted by women. How can I ever feel safe letting you go out?"John's deep gaze slightly lowered. "And you?"Diana looked down at the Red Rose in her hand, feeling a bit guilty."Uh..." She reached out and presented the rose to John: "It's for you."John remained silent.Instead, the little baby in his arms stretched out a hand, grabbed the Red Rose, and then happily held it in her arms.Diana chuckled, pinching the little baby's soft cheek."Oh, our Tiger likes flowers~"The little baby stretched out her short arms toward Kevin, earnestly offering him the flower.The little baby handed the flower to him!Diana was astonished."My goodness, Tiger, you can't even speak and you're already trying to win over little boys?!"Truly her daughter!Kev
Kevin pulled on his turtle shell bag strap, seriously said: "I really have to go now, remember, my name is Kevin Nelson."Saying that, he turned his head and was ready to leave."Wait a moment."Kevin stopped in his tracks, turned his head, looked at him with a complex gaze.What...Did his brother remember something, or was he reluctant to part with him?Yosef picked up a Red Rose beside him."This, take it."Kevin was somewhat surprised: "Give it to me? But I'm a man, why would you give me a rose?""It's not for you."Yosef handed the flower to him, glanced at the distant girl, and said: "It's for her."Kevin: "...I just told you, my sister has a husband and a child, are you still not giving up?"Kevin thought: Oh, no! My brother may falls again in the same place after losing his memory!"What are you talking about." Yosef interrupted his thoughts: "I didn't think about pursuing her."
Kevin let himself be led by Yosef's hand, and they both sat on the swing in front of the flower shop.Once seated, the little kid beside Yosef didn't make a sound.He wore a bowl cut hairstyle, carried a big turtle shell backpack, and lowered his head, lost in thought.Yosef occasionally glanced over at him.After a while, he couldn't remind silence any more."You..."Hearing his voice, Kevin immediately turned his head, his eyes sparkling as he looked at him.Full of anticipation.Yosef slowly opened his mouth: "This outfit... who bought it for you?""My brother, what about it?""To be honest, your brother's taste isn't great." Looking at the little one's green onesie, Yosef slightly frowned, "Ugly."Kevin: ……This outfit was something Kevin had insisted on buying for his fifth birthday.He also bought a larger size for Yosef, as matching brother outfits.Although Yosef never wore it,
Hearing this, Kevin covered his mouth: "You mean... my brother's mind is damaged?"Godber corrected: "This is called mental issues.""Isn't that the same thing?"Godber: ...It seems so.Diana frowned. "Yosef lost his memory? With so many enemies, your situation should be unfavorable now, right?"Godber: "Mr. Nelson had already anticipated this. Before completely losing his memory, he divided the remaining power of the Nelson family into three parts, assigning them to the other three members of the Nelson family to keep each other in check, while he decided to retire due to health reasons."Kirin nodded. "So, currently, apart from us and Patrick, no one else in the Nelson family knows Mr. Nelson has lost his memory, thinking he's stepping down due to health reasons."Kevin asked: "Then where is my brother now?"Kirin glanced at Diana and John beside him, hesitating whether to speak.But then he heard John calmly say: "Gri
John's voice had a lazy, sexy edge."Sleep a bit more.""...Okay."Diana turned over, adjusting to a comfortable position, leaning into his embrace.Just as she was about to drift off, she felt the hand on her waist start to move along her curves.Wherever it touched, it ignited sparks.Diana's eyes flew open, and she turned her head.Behind her, John still had his eyes closed, his expression as calm as if he were asleep.But the hand under the covers was very much awake.This beast.Diana turned around and bit his Adam's apple.John frowned slightly, then opened his eyes.His deep gaze locked onto the girl in his arms.As if capturing prey, with a wild possessiveness.Diana knew that look well.It was the same look he gave her last night.She squinted. "Again?"His response was another wave of kisses....Diana became an overnight sensation without an
Reeves turned back and glared at Morse.Wanting to say something to retort against this guy.But he found... There was nothing to say...He looked at the cold and noble man beside Diana and felt an extremely complex mix of emotions.From the moment this man appeared, he knew he had lost.Lost utterly.John slightly lifted his eyes and swept them over Reeves holding roses.Facing the man's icy and profound gaze, Reeves felt somewhat nervous.Just as he thought John would question him, he saw John casually withdraw his gaze and look at the girl beside him."Do you like it?"Reeves: ... This man actually completely ignored me!Being ignored hurt Reeves' pride even more than being questioned!It meant that this man simply didn't regard Reeves as a threat!Unable to help himself, Reeves said."Are you Miss Thompson's fiancé?"Hearing this, Morse behind him covered his eyes with his ha
Hearing this, Frank approached her and whispered, "Big sis, think it through. This guy doesn't seem too smart; having him around might lower our overall standard.""Don't worry, if you can work well in the studio, so can he."Frank: ???Reeves beamed with joy: "Then, Miss Thompson, please accept my flowers first. When I join the Blue Rose Studio, we can get to know each other better.""I welcome you to Blue Rose as a designer, but I can't accept your flowers or feelings.""Why?""Because I already have someone I love."Reeves: ......He opened his mouth slightly, then his expression fell."Who is it?"Reeves scanned the group behind Diana one by one.A bunch of top-notch handsome guys and beautiful girls almost blinded him.This...Each one was very likely!Reeves had a complex expression on his face: "May I ask impertinently, the person you like, is it a man or a woman?"Diana:
Faced with the relentless questions from the reporters, Diana remained calm.She nodded."The name Blue Rose does hold a special meaning for me. As for Reeves, I'm not familiar with him; I have nothing to say.""Miss Thompson, you're so young and accomplished; how about your love life? Do you have a boyfriend?"Hearing this, Ben immediately stepped forward."This is Diana's privacy; we refuse to answer!"The reporters were taken aback for a moment.Everyone stared at Ben wearing a hat; suddenly, excitement surged: "Isn’t this Big Star Fly? Why did he suddenly appear here?"Someone seemed to realize something."Could it be that Fly and Thompson are a couple?!""You're talking nonsense! Diana is my biological sister; stop spouting rubbish here! And this is my girlfriend!"Saying that, Ben pulled Liora over and tightly grasped her hand."This is my girlfriend; Diana is my sister, got it?!"Hearin
