Chapter 253: My man just arrived

last update Last Updated: 2023-08-12 05:46:55

The backyard of the Matthews family estate.

Inside a room on the second floor.

The spacious room was filled with an invisible pressure, silencing the entire conference table.

Joel's expression had turned exceedingly grim.

However, he found it difficult to meet the gaze of the man seated at the head of the table, whose demeanor was as icy as frost.

The anger that had risen to his lips was forcefully suppressed.

"Uncle, do you really have nothing to say about John's fiancée?" Joel turned his head to look at Grandpa Matthews, seated at the other end.

A hint of authority flashed across Grandpa Matthews' aged face. "As long as John is happy, I have no objections."

If Grandpa Matthews said so, others found it even harder to voice their opinions.

For a moment, everyone exchanged glances, their expressions varied.

John lifted his hand to glance at his Cartier wristwatch.

"If the meeting's over, let's dis

    It infuriated Scarlett's beyond measure. "Apologize!" Christopher's tone grew firmer. Under Christopher's imposing presence, Scarlett reluctantly stepped forward, her voice flat as she said, "I apologize for the misunderstanding, Mr. Stone." Her attitude was anything but sincere. "Mr. Stone, you see, Scarlett has apologized. As an elder, please don't hold onto this matter with a younger person," Christopher calmly suggested. The casual demeanor of the Patel family didn't sit well with Mr. Stone. However, the Patels were no ordinary family; they held substantial influence. Besides, there were potential future dealings between them. He had no choice but to swallow his pride. "Hmph, young ones nowadays should be careful about their words," Mr. Stone retorted with a cold snort, begrudgingly accepting the apology. "Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, let's move on," Christopher turned and smiled at the onlooke

    So, Diana didn't actually have some sort of wealthy benefactor backing her all along! And that "old man" she had always thought of, was actually... John?! She had just slandered Diana for being kept by an old man right in front of John?! The more she thought, the more Scarlett felt suffocated, her whole being in turmoil. Christopher's expression also became unnaturally stiff. He forced a smile and said, "John, it was all a misunderstanding, and now it's cleared up. There's nothing to worry about." A faint chill flickered in John's eyes. "A misunderstanding? Mr. Patel, why don't you go ahead and explain what kind of misunderstanding?" A single sentence fell, and around was a silence akin to death. Observing this, Diana let out a light chuckle, then tiptoed and whispered a few words in his ear. John bent down, listened, and his icy gaze grew even colder. His gaze shifted, landing on Scarlett, who s

    At the time, no one held much hope for him, thinking the old man's move lacked consideration. However, John surprised everyone upon his return, displaying remarkable business acumen and an iron-fisted approach. Not only did he successfully stabilize the faltering Matthews Group, but he also stripped Max of his power, kicking him out of the Matthews Group and becoming the sole emperor of Cloud City himself. Over the years, under John's leadership, the Matthews Group continuously grew and prospered. Yet now, Max claimed that the Matthews Group was facing a crisis. Hearing Mike's words, a hint of anger flashed in Max's eyes. That brat! Among the three, Mike, despite being the youngest, appeared the most gentle and agreeable. However, he was also the most scheming one. "Your concerns are valid," Max spoke slowly. "But you should understand a simple truth. A thousand-mile dike can collapse due to an ant hole. While t

    Very much like a mad dog. Billy was taken aback and instinctively took two steps back. What's going on?! That look... That roguish demeanor... Why did it feel like in the next second, this guy would pull out a brick from somewhere and smack it against his head?! "Rose, are you sure... you're talking about him?" Well, this was definitely less flashy than Frank! "Yes, Dad, I'm sure he's the one for me!" Rose's eyes were filled with fervor. "No way! I don't agree!" Billy immediately protested. This seems to have a violent tendency, it's too dangerous! "Dad, you don't agree?" "Absolutely not." Upon hearing this, Rose fell silent for a moment, then lifted her head. "You don't have to agree, I'll fight you on this till the end!" With that, she looked at Diana. "Ms. Thompson, thank you. You've given me the courage." Diana: ...Please don't cue me. B

    John remained unfazed, but Frank beside them was growing restless. "Bro, why aren't you even a bit concerned?" Frank blurted out, his patience wearing thin. "Haven't you been eager to team up with Ms. Wang to crack open the Chinese market? This time, with Max and Christopher acting like this, it's as if they're trying to cut you off!" John remained composed. "I'm aware." Frank practically jumped. You're aware? What does that even mean? You've been fixated on Diana all day long. Aware of what, seriously? He scratched his head, a touch of resentment in his tone. "Honestly, if that thing hadn't happened before... you'd probably have already partnered with Ms. Wang, making Matthews Group even stronger. Sigh..." Diana was perplexed. "What thing?" Frank rolled his eyes. "This... actually has to do with you, big sis. Before..." A cold glance from John silenced him immediately. Frank shut his mouth quick

    "I'm doing fine. Dad, Andrew, Colin, why did you only show up now?" Diana inquired. "It's all because of Andrew. He kept fussing around in the room," James showed a hint of displeasure. "It's just a simple engagement, yet he acted so nervously. Who knows what he was worrying about." Colin, standing beside them, gave Andrew a silent glance. Nervous? He had, in fact, been attempting to escape through the second-floor window. He tried multiple times but ultimately gave up due to his fear of heights. Upon hearing the words, a hint of guilt flickered across Diana's face. "Uh, well, Dad, is Andrew's blind date Rose from the Walsh family?" Diana hesitated, her tone uncertain. "You've already met her?" James's serious expression softened with a touch of contentment. "Is she educated, poised, and gentle? I had to talk Billy into agreeing to have Andrew meet her. Tonight, you must make her my future daughter-in-law!" Saying this,

    Diana had to fight an eye-roll at that. So, basically, she was being called shallow? "Just say you don't know arts. Why try to argue your way out of it?" Joel retorted with displeasure. John cast a fleeting glance at him, a look filled with unmistakable threat. Joel's face stiffened, and though he was clearly displeased, he still closed his mouth. "I don't understand this painting either," John spoke up, breaking the tension. The banquet hall fell into an instant silence. Everyone exchanged looks, hesitant to speak up. A few seconds of silence followed. Then came a mocking voice. "Yeah, I don't get it either. It's like some kind of mystical symbol. Who knows what it's supposed to mean?" Frank, standing not far away, casually inserted a hand into his pink suit, projecting an air of nonchalance. Taking "superficial" to the extreme. Upon hearing his words, the crowd buzzed for a moment, and

    A frozen smile appeared on Charlotte's lips. Had she misheard? Diana, this seemingly useless person, had actually called her artwork so-so?! "Ms. Thompson is quite audacious, isn't she? Do you even understand this painting?" Joel couldn't help blurting out. The others nearby also turned their gaze towards Diana. Their expressions carried a mix of disbelief and astonishment. Lotus was equally displeased. "Ms. Thompson, young as you are, you should mind your words," she retorted. "Since Ms. Thompson said that, she must be capable of creating stunning artwork. I'm quite eager to see it," Joel chimed in, suppressing his annoyance. Charlotte managed to suppress her irritation and calmly said, "Ms. Thompson, please proceed." A new canvas was brought in and placed at the center of the room. Diana, without hesitation, rose lazily from her seat, stretching her arms a bit. Then, under the varied gazes of t

    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
