"Four... four days?"
John's eyebrows furrowed slightly. "Is there a problem?"
The designer hesitated and replied, "...No problem."
What could be the problem?
Isn't it just working overtime to get it done?
With tears in his eyes, he left the room.
Four days later, Max Matthews was hosting a grand banquet at his old mansion.
All the prominent figures and celebrities were expected to attend.
John made preparations to accompany Diana to the event.
Frank, who was sitting nearby, had long grown accustomed to John's reckless ways.
He slouched in his chair and said, "Bro, this party is going to be quite lavish. Don't you think you should inform big sis in advance?"
"No need. She always conducts herself with grace, so there's nothing to worry about."
Graceful? Frank's mouth twitched.
Bro, can you honestly say that?
He cleared his throat, shifting the topic.
"Bro, why don't
This situation made it seem as if Diana was bullying them, a helpless mother and son! Mrs. Reynolds clutched her wrist, her face contorting with anger. "Outrageous! Absolutely outrageous... It's lawless!" "Expulsion! Students like you deserve nothing less than expulsion!" The head of the school's academic affairs department stepped forward, offering tea and apologies. "Mrs. Reynolds, my apologies, please have some tea to calm down. Diana was indeed in the wrong!" He then turned his head, looking at her with great displeasure. "Diana! Are you disrespecting me as the head of the academic affairs department?" "Well, I'd like to ask you, have you figured out what really happened?" Diana glanced at him dismissively. "You come up here and apologize without even understanding the situation, is that how the head of academic affairs acts?" "What else is there to understand?" The head of academic affairs became even angrier. "Mrs. Reynolds has already e
A hint of unease flickered across President Smith's face.He turned slightly to look at Mrs. Reynolds and said in a stern tone, "Mrs. Reynolds, this university isn't under your control, is it?""What do you mean by that?!""My point is that your son, Ryan, is now being expelled from the university!"His words hung in the office, and there was a moment of silence.Then, everyone was stunned.Andrew couldn't hold it in and burst into laughter.Mrs. Reynolds regained her senses, shocked. "Expel... expel my son?""Are you crazy? Are you out of your mind? Diana should be the one getting expelled!"The dean also stepped forward and whispered, "President, this may not be appropriate. I think...""Inappropriate?!" President Smith glared at him. "If you have so many objections, maybe I should appoint you as the president instead?!""No, that's not what I meant..."The dean's face turned embarrassed.Mr
"Ahh! So handsome! I've been drooling all night! Why is my screen so dirty?" "Fly, this look is killing me! Fly, I'm waiting for you in bed!" "To the person above, thanks to your comment, Fly has been teasing me for half an hour now." ... A slight smile crept upon Diana's lips. But the thought of Ben's fate in the previous life instantly sobered her expression. This time, she must protect Ben at all costs and prevent the tragedy from the previous life from happening again! Lost in her thoughts, the car suddenly came to a screeching halt. Due to the inertia, Diana's phone nearly fell down. "What's happening, driver?" "There's an accident up ahead!" The driver spoke with a shocked tone, "Oh my... such a huge smoke, an explosion?" Diana unconsciously tilted her head and glanced ahead. There, at the crossroads not far away, two cars had collided fiercely, their fronts emitting flames,
Diana met his intense gaze and slightly lowered her face, revealing a slightly pitiful expression. "I'm hungry..." she murmured. John narrowed his eyes, reached out, and gently pinched her adorable nose. "Let's eat." "Great!" Diana beamed and hopped off him, taking a seat beside him. She picked up the nearest pastry and stuffed it into her mouth, reveling in the thrill of teasing John and then satisfying her appetite. Watching the young woman next to him delight in her meal, John's gaze softened as he couldn't take his eyes off her. Even when she eats, she's adorable. Cough cough... Because she was eating so eagerly, a small piece of cake got stuck in her throat. Diana rolled her eyes and thumped her chest a couple of times to dislodge it. John handed her a glass of water. She took a few sips, finally managing to swallow the cake. As John's intense gaze fell upon her face, Diana felt a bi
"You are so charming and well-loved by everyone, and you seem defenseless. If you were to encounter any thugs, they might harm the beautiful flower." Mitbahl patted his chest, "Rest assured, Madam. Even though I tend to talk a lot, I am quite powerful!" "Oh?" Diana became interested, "More powerful than Xavier and Misoup?" "No, they are both more powerful than me." Diana: ... "Then you must be the smartest among them?" He didn't look like it. Mitbahl shook his head with a serious expression, "In terms of strength, intelligence, and emotional intelligence... I am not better than them." "Then what's your use?" Mitbahl looked proud, "I can take a beating!" Diana: ... Was he some sort of fool? Diana looked down with a puzzled expression and quietly opened Jacob's social media account. His posts were all about financial tips and data news, without a single personal photo. It seemed highly formulaic, just like his personality—polite, meticulous, and never making mistakes. Touch
"You damn piece of shit, using my beloved Bone to threaten me?!" Mitbahl's fist slammed into the car door beside him, leaving a noticeable dent. "You can mess with anyone, but you can't touch my Bone!" "Ten seconds, I want to hear the sound of money hitting my account, or else..." Misoup remained unfazed. Even starting a countdown: "Ten, nine..." "Ah, you little devil! How can I live without Bone?!" Mitbahl pounded his chest, filled with anguish. "Eight..." "No! I won't give in this time, no matter what you say!" "Seven, six..." "Wait! Let's talk it over first, Misoup! Sister, the most adorable sister in the world..." Misoup paused. Mitbahl felt hopeful, thinking he had convinced her, "Great, my precious sister, I knew you are a..." "Five, four..." "You bastard! You goddamn bastard!" Mitbahl gritted his teeth and swiftly navigated to the transfer page on his phone, then hurriedly sent the money. "Cha-ching," the sound of money being received rang out. As that sound f
"You played well. You're the first one who could keep up with my speed," Leah said after they finished. She playfully brushed her long curly hair and smiled. Looking at her stunning profile, Diana squinted slightly, feeling a warm affection in her heart. For once, she refrained from retorting at Leah and simply replied with a faint smile, "Thank you." Leah turned her head awkwardly, saying, "Enough with the sweet talk. I'd rather you call me a jerk." "You have that fetish too?" "I have many fetishes, and the biggest one is trying out some bondage play with Colin." Diana: ... "Pervert." As they exchanged banter, footsteps suddenly approached from outside the window. Then, a familiar figure appeared at the door. Scarlett stood by the door, wearing a light pink coat, her hair flowing loosely over her shoulders, and holding a sheet of music as she scanned the room. When she spotted Diana and Leah sit
"What are you doing here?" "Stay away!" Scarlett suddenly snapped in anger, startling the young man. He froze in his tracks, unsure of what to do next. "What... what's wrong?" The boy sniffed the air, realizing that there was an unpleasant smell in the room. He wondered why there was such an odor in the music room. Oddly, the source of the smell seemed to be coming from Scarlett's direction. As he focused his gaze, he was shocked to notice that Scarlett's pants appeared to be wet and dripping with some kind of liquid. "What happened to your pants?" His words drew everyone's attention towards her. For a moment, they all stood stunned, until someone whispered softly, "Um, is she... peeing?" In an instant, a variety of sharp gazes locked onto Scarlett. It felt like a barrage of cutting knives, stripping away her dignity and pride, leaving her utterly exposed. And at this moment, the
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
