"We were just taking a stroll with John here, didn't expect to run into you guys," Diana turned and gave John a subtle nod.
He played along, saying, "Yeah, what a coincidence."
"Colin, you two carry on. We won't disturb you," Diana said hurriedly, pulling John along and making a quick exit.
Watching their retreating figures, Colin's eyes flickered with a hint of resignation.
After Colin finished his date with Leah, he dropped her off and then returned to the Thompson's house.
As soon as he stepped into the living room, he spotted Diana sitting cross-legged, sipping on a glass of milk.
She looked at him with a knowing smile. "Colin, done with your date?"
"Yeah," Colin replied nonchalantly.
Well, surprise, surprise! He admitted it without batting an eyelid!
Diana's eyes sparkled with curiosity.
Colin walked over and said, "If you have any questions, feel free to ask."
Upon hearing this, Diana immed
He supported his slightly dizzy head with one hand and reached for his phone. There were several missed calls inside, along with a message from Andrew. Seeing his name, Tony's beautiful eyes softened. In truth, if Rathbone exposed his dark past and ruined his chances of becoming a star, Tony didn't care all that much. What he was truly worried about was if Andrew found out about his sordid past... Tony clutched the phone in his hand, his grip tightening ever so slightly. Andrew was the one thing he didn't want to lose. Tony retrieved his phone and dialed Andrew's number. It didn't take long for Andrew to answer on the other end. "Andrew, I had to meet with a client just now, sorry I missed your call," Tony said, feigning casualness. Andrew's voice came through, sounding like he was driving, "Oh, are you on your way back now?" "Yep, on my way back. What's up?" Andrew fell silent for a moment and t
"But..." "Would I harm you? Today's events, forget them. Otherwise, it'll bring trouble, do you understand?" Maddie reluctantly nodded her head. Serena wore an exceedingly serious expression on her face. Maddie's thoughts were in disarray. Seeing this, she could only nod silently. But in her eyes, a hint of unwillingness continued to flicker. Christopher had no feelings for them? She couldn't believe it! If that were true, then why had Christopher arranged for them to stay in such a good hospital and sent them abroad? Christopher was her father; he must care for her. It had to be that Lora couldn't stand their presence. She absolutely couldn't let it end like this! Time passed quickly, and a week went by. FOT and Tony had finished shooting their new music video. Promotional messages were all over Twitter, receiving tremendous attention. Diana received an invitation from Ben, saying he couldn't wa
Seeing the provocation in her eyes, Yosef narrowed his long, narrow eyes. Very well. Wanna play, huh? He'd play along. "You seem to have misunderstood," Yosef said, one hand in his pocket, a faint smile on his face. Then he continued slowly, "My wife and I had a little disagreement today, and she's throwing a fit. My apologies for the scene, everyone." Wife?! "Who the hell is your wife!?" Diana felt like she might spit blood on his face. Not only her, but Patrick and Kirin were also shocked. On the other hand, the security guard and the onlookers suddenly realized. It made sense; this man was exceptionally handsome, and his demeanor was aristocratic. He didn't seem like a thug at all. The woman with him was incredibly beautiful too. They looked like a couple. The security guard hesitated for a moment. "Young lady, are you really his wife?" "Otherwise?" Yosef approached Diana, pinching her cheek and a dangerous glint in his eyes. "What do you say we prove to everyone the n
Charlotte had put a lot of thought into this "chance encounter" today. She was determined to make Yosef fall for her! Patrick furrowed his brow, preparing to politely decline when suddenly a chilly voice cut through the air. "Get lost!" He turned his head and saw Yosef standing nearby, his extraordinarily handsome face tinged with impatience. Charlotte froze. She couldn't believe her ears as she stammered, "Mr. Nelson, are you..." "I said, get lost! Are you deaf?" He sharply turned his head, his brooding eyes emanating a dangerous aura. Charlotte paled, too frightened to say another word. Yosef turned his gaze away, then pivoted and walked towards the exit of the mall. A few people hurriedly followed him. Outside by the Maybach, Patrick was about to open the car door for him when he suddenly heard a chilling voice, "Are you very familiar with that Charlotte?" Patrick: ...
"Angel, in the music video, who do you think had the most handsome appearance?" Anthony eagerly leaned in, practically begging for a "I'm the most handsome" stamped on his face. Diana thought for a moment, then replied, "Ben." Ben couldn't hide his smugness. Anthony asked, "Besides Ben?" "Tony." "And besides Tony?" Anthony clenched his small fists, placing them against his chest, looking nervous. Darn it! If he couldn't outdo Ben and Tony, he had to at least surpass Leo. They were his rivals! Diana looked at him and uttered two words, "Leo." Anthony: !!! He clutched his chest, rolled onto the couch, looking like he was on the verge of giving up on life. Leo casually kicked him. "What are you whimpering about?" "Leave me alone! I'm done! I'm not going to be an artist anymore; I'm going back to inherit the family estate!" In the eyes of an angel, he was the ugliest?!!
"Looking for the Matthews family?!" Charlotte was shocked. "Dad, are you out of your mind? Do you really think John will come to your rescue?" Christopher replied, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend, and that applies to John as well. With such a golden opportunity in front of us, I refuse to believe he would let it slip through his fingers." Christopher clenched his fists. He was determined to settle this score with Yosef. Diana walked out with her phone and, as soon as the call connected, she transformed into her sweet, loving wife persona. "John, what's up?" On the other end of the line, John's icy demeanor softened slightly. He seemed unaffected by today's events based on her tone. He slowly asked, "Where are you?" "I'm at Ben's place, getting ready to have dinner." Diana replied sweetly. She had a feeling that John probably knew about her encounter with Yosef earlier today. "Alright, I know," John's
"Tony, is there something going on? I overheard your phone conversation earlier. It sounded like someone was threatening you or something. Money troubles?" How could a big star like Tony possibly have money problems? "Work's been a bit hectic lately, but nothing major," Tony said calmly. Diana remained silent, realizing that prying further would be futile. "Let's go inside for dinner," Tony said, patting her head like an elder would. He then proceeded to enter the private dining room. As Diana watched him walk away, memories flooded her mind. In her previous life, Tony had suddenly announced his retirement from the entertainment industry and hadn't spoken a word despite the media's relentless inquiries. A brilliant star had faded into obscurity. What a waste. Now, it seemed there was more to that story. Diana adjusted her demeanor and followed suit, joining them inside. Once the food arrived, they became quite animated, but Tony remain
A man was seated inside, wearing a black suit and sitting with his legs crossed. His face wasn't visible from this angle, but his imposing presence was unmistakable. Anthony bent slightly, intrigued about the newcomer's identity. Then, the man inside the car got out of the rear seat. In the dimly lit night, he was dressed in a perfectly tailored suit, revealing an astonishingly handsome face. Anthony gasped. Damn! Handsome! Incredibly handsome! "Wow, this guy is incredibly handsome. If I weren't so composed, I might have swooned over him..." Anthony leaned closer to Leo, filled with envy and admiration. It was the first time in his life that he admitted someone was more attractive than him. Leo furrowed his brow. "I have a feeling this guy isn't just an ordinary person. Do you know him?" "As soon as you mention it, he does look a bit familiar..." Anthony replied, puzzled. Just as
