Looks like there'd be quite a show soon.
Ethan nodded, finding her rationale sound.
Unexpectedly, Diana turned to him.
"You're too slow, step on it."
Puzzled, Ethan asked, "Ms. Thompson, is there something urgent?"
"Yeah... indeed, very urgent."
She glanced at the handsome man beside her, a faintly suggestive smile playing on her lips.
She was eager to be with her ice-cold man.
Wasn't that urgent?
Pressured by Diana, Ethan increased the speed.
The car raced onwards, swiftly reaching John's private residence.
After escorting the two inside, Ethan promptly drove away.
Diana, draped in John's suit, walked into the mansion with John.
She ascended the spiral staircase, taking the lead.
Neither of them spoke.
In the vast and quiet space, only the faint echoes of their footsteps remained.
Halfway up, Diana abruptly halted.
Turning, she glanced back at John
"This is your room. Who would see us?" Andrew's eyes behind his glasses flickered, a hint of scrutiny in them. "Tony, you're still avoiding me." Andrew extended slender fingers, tilting Tony's chin up. Their eyes met. Tony's jet-black pupils flickered with a glint of wary coldness. Was he guarding himself? On Andrew's handsome and refined face, a slight furrow formed on his brow, a probing glint in his eyes. Releasing his grip, a touch of tenderness surfaced in Andrew's eyes. "Let's talk this out properly this time, shall we?" Meeting those warm eyes, Tony quickly looked away. He reminded himself to stay composed. This guy was a scoundrel! A hypocritical scoundrel! He couldn't let himself be deceived by Andrew's false façade again! "Talk about what?" Tony steadied himself, wearing an indifferent expression. "Tony, stay with me," Andrew spoke frankly.
Andrew suddenly opened his eyes, then holding Tony's waist, pushed him onto the nearby bed. Standing by the bed, he systematically removed his suit, then his tie. One leg knelt between Tony's legs, placing the tie in Tony's hand. Tony glared, "Wanna play again?" Andrew sometimes behaved roughly in bed, often using ties to bind him. A refined brute! But the man just smiled faintly. Bending down, he whispered in Tony's ear, "Didn't I say tonight is for you to play? So, the tie is for you to use." Tony squinted his pretty eyes. Didn't expect that. Andrew could be so seductive? Tony grabbed the tie, swiftly flipped over, attempting to bind Andrew's hands. But he wasn't adept at this. After all, he had always been the one being tied up. After fumbling for a while, he managed to loosely secure it. Tony narrowed his eyes, carefully studying the man in front of him.
With a gentle smile, he turned and left. Leaving Stella utterly puzzled. What was going on? Andrew seemed off today? Puzzled, Tony opened the door and appeared. Stella squinted. "What's going on? Last time, you said the intimate relationship between you two was over?" "Yeah, it's over." Tony shrugged. "So now... we're probably in a romantic relationship." Stella: ... "What are you doing? You said Andrew wasn't serious about you at all. Did you ever think about that? Have you gone crazy?!" "Maybe." Tony took out a cigarette from his pocket, his eyes briefly softened. "Maybe I am crazy to believe his nonsense." But Andrew's words were too tempting. Spending a lifetime with him... He'd gamble one last time. ... When Diana woke up, it was nearly noon. She sat up in bed, her hair a disheveled mess, feeling disoriented for a few seconds. "Did I ov
The men swiftly shifted their demeanor, showering Mr. Lin with flattery, their faces flushed with excitement. Mr. Lin remained composed. "You can head back now, let's catch up another day." The men bid their polite goodbyes. Left outside, Diana's feelings were hard to articulate. Gotta admit, these old gentlemen's acting skills are better than Anthony's. Once everyone left, Mr. Lin straightened his Tang suit and sat up straight. Assuming a profound and serious expression, he looked at Diana and coughed lightly. "Ms. Thompson, how did you arrive so quickly?" As per his calculations, even if Diana had immediately set off, given the traffic conditions, she wouldn't have arrived for at least another half-hour, enough time for him to pack up and put on a show. So, how did she suddenly appear? Caught off guard. Completely disrupting his plan. Diana approached, "I rode my motorcycle." "M
"Tired." He said. Forget it. No matter how much he showed off, he felt like he couldn't surprise her. "Since you're into art, I bet you've got a good eye for aesthetics. Looking at it now, you've got the knack for design, aesthetics, and hands-on skills. Now... what you need is practice," Mr. Lin remarked. Mr. Lin shifted his gaze. "Little girl, I do value you, but to become my apprentice, you need to pass a test." He spun the laptop on the table, displaying a website. "This is the briefing for the New Talent Design Competition. Every year, numerous budding designers participate in this competition, specifically in the fields of jewelry and fashion design. If you can secure an outstanding award, I'll acknowledge you." A competition... Diana narrowed her eyes, a hint of determination glinting within. As expected. Becoming Mr. Lin's apprentice wasn't going to be easy. However... She enjoyed
A few bouncers gathered their courage and lunged at Diana once again. Yet, she remained unfazed, calmly blocking their attacks. Despite her slender arms and legs, her punches packed an unexpected force. In a blink, only one bouncer remained standing. "Don't... Don't come any closer!" the man was drenched in sweat. What in the world was this woman? Next to him, Godber exclaimed, "Wow! I never knew you were this skilled!" Hearing this, the bouncer abruptly turned his head. He was close to Godber. Since this man and Diana were accomplices, then... His eyes narrowed, swiftly turning to grab Godber, a knife against his neck. "Don't come any closer, or I'll kill him!" Wide-eyed, Godber showed fear in his eyes. "What are you doing? Murder is against the law..." Diana's gaze turned icy. "Let him go. This has nothing to do with him." Seeing Diana compromised, Scarlett showe
"This time, I'll see where you run," Kirin stepped forward, just as a blade "whooshed" past him. Mitbahl dashed forward, blocking Kirin's path. Godber quickly followed from behind. With Kirin by their side, they launched an attack against Mitbahl. Despite his best efforts, Mitbahl struggled against the two. He was overpowered, sent flying meters away, crashing into a massive rock at the roadside. The impact shattered the rock into pieces. "D*mn it!" Mitbahl cried out in agony. Godber and Kirin didn't allow him a moment's respite, charging forward again. Mitbahl roared, "Misoup, if you don't show up now, I'm done for!" As his words echoed, a petite figure emerged from the nearby bushes. Misoup aimed a machine gun at them. Rapid gunfire erupted, flames and debris scattering in chaos. In the midst of the confusion, Mitbahl's cries rang out. "Damn it, Misoup, are you t
He composed himself, but the next moment, there were urgent knocks on the door. Before he could respond, Jacob barged in. "John, urgent matter." Jacob's tone was serious. "About Ms. Thompson." Hearing the mention of her name, John's eyes flickered. He muttered something to his clients and closed his laptop. "Speak." Jacob's voice lowered, "Ms. Thompson has been kidnapped by the Nelsons. Mitbahl just sent the message; three secret guards from the Nelsons appeared and took Ms. Thompson away with a helicopter..." Jacob stopped midway because he sensed the atmosphere in the room had shifted drastically. At the mention of Diana being kidnapped, John's originally indifferent expression turned frosty. The room's atmosphere dropped to freezing point, suffocating with pressure. He looked at Jacob. The icy, distant gaze seemed bottomless, shrouded in darkness and danger. Jacob lowered his head, fee
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
