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
Diana wondered what that "Hmm" meant. "I trust you," he finally added. Hearing this, Diana's face lit up with a smile. "I always knew you were the best!" Ethan, on the other hand, was in trouble. The boss was completely taken in. As the car continued down the road, they hit traffic. Diana sat in the car, glancing out the window. Across the street, she saw a familiar figure. Andrew?! He was wearing a light gray overcoat and, after parking his car, headed toward a hotel. Diana recognized it as a couples' hotel. Was Andrew here for a date? No wonder Stella didn't stay for dinner with them today; she must have been busy with this. Diana closed the window, deciding not to dwell on it too much. The car had been moving slowly for more than ten minutes when Diana suddenly received a voice call from Stella. She answered with a hint of confusion, "Stella?" "Ms. Thompson, I'm currently negot
Diana reached out and touched his fiery skin, igniting a fire within herself as they both surrendered to the moment. Inside the room, passion reigned. As they teetered on the edge of losing control, John suddenly sat up, freezing their movements. "What's wrong?" Diana asked softly. Her lips were half-parted, her eyes filled with desire after their intimate moment. His Adam's apple bobbed as he whispered, "I hear something outside." He got up and straightened his shirt. "It must be room service." Diana instantly understood his meaning. Someone must have ordered room service, and when they opened the door, she could finally see if it was Andrew or not. But... How could this man get distracted while he was with her? "I'll go check." Diana adjusted her clothing, feeling a bit disappointed. Walking up to the door, she cracked it open just a sliver and discreetly observed a hotel staff
"Understood~" Diana immediately made a 'got it' gesture, excitement evident on her face. Damn! When did they suddenly become such a perfect match?! After Diana left, Tony closed the door and revealed a faint smile. "Little Diana is just adorable." "She's my sister, of course she is." Andrew took off his glasses and sat down on the nearby sofa, rubbing his temples, seeming a bit uncomfortable. "Are you tired?" "The company has been quite busy lately." Tony furrowed his brow. "Have you been eating properly lately?" "Sort of..." At that, Tony went to his coat, pulled out a stomach pill from his pocket, and then poured a cup of hot water, handing them both to him. "No honey water, but this will do for now." Andrew hesitated for a moment, then chuckled. "You still have this habit?" Tony remained silent. Back when they were in school, Andrew had a tendenc
Diana had been obedient and well-behaved lately, so what had triggered her father's anger today? "Colin, move out of the way!" "Dad, calm down." Colin stepped between them, arms outstretched, blocking James. "If Diana did something wrong, I'll take her punishment, and you can hit me instead." "Fine, then I'll hit both of you!" James seethed, pacing around, seemingly searching for a tool to use. Seeing this, Diana pulled Colin aside, revealing a selfless expression. "Colin, step aside. I should face the consequences alone. I can't involve you in this!" "Is that you, Diana?" Colin hesitated for a moment. Since when did Diana become so responsible? In the midst of his confusion, Diana blinked at him. She gestured for him not to intervene. It seemed like she had counted on Dad not having the heart to scold her. Colin stepped aside. Seeing her reaction, James wa
