A middle-aged woman selling seafood nearby smiled at the couple.
"Hey, newlyweds, right?"
Newlyweds?
Hearing this, Diana was momentarily stunned, then she flashed a radiant smile.
Extending her hand, she wrapped her arm around John's.
"Yes~ Newlyweds indeed. Tonight, we're planning a candlelit dinner." She lifted her head, playfully winking at John. "Right, dear?"
The term "dear" made John's heart skip a beat. A tingling sensation spread from the heart to his limbs.
Indescribable contentment.
"Yes," he responded.
The woman beside them had her mouth wide open.
"You two are a perfect match! Young lady, you're incredibly beautiful, and your husband, honestly, I've never seen such a handsome man. Hold on tight to him!"
The woman continued talking endlessly.
After packing the crabs they bought, the woman stated the price.
John reached into his pocket and placed several bills that were
Watching the interaction unfold beneath her post, Diana felt something was off. Strange. Why did Jacob's tone of mocking defiance feel oddly familiar? It had a resemblance to that iron-rooster 'X.' But considering Jacob's usual mild and humble demeanor, Diana instantly dismissed the thought. Impossible. Just as Mitbahl settled down, Diana's chat group with her three brothers erupted. [Ben: Diana, are you at the ice-cold John's mansion?! Ahh! It's so late; why would you willingly enter the thief's den alone!] Diana: ... [Diana: Ben, John and I are engaged. This might be our future home; it's not some thief's den.] [Ben: Waaah~ I used to be happy, why do you have to say this...] Diana: ...Doesn't Ben know his precious little sister has fallen into the clutches of ice-cold John? Is he just in denial? [Andrew: John doesn't seem like someone who can cook. Unusual things must have a reason. Maybe he's
John was surprised at the strength of this petite girl. "Don't go..." Diana grabbed his shirt, her eyes shining like stars. Because of the recent kiss, her eyes were misted with a layer of vapor, emanating a scorching warmth. John unconsciously lowered his voice, "The floor is cold." "Who says so? The floor is covered in flowers, isn't it beautiful?" Diana, like a little ruffian, sprayed alcohol breath while patting his handsome face. "Of course, you're even more beautiful, boy~" With that, she pouted, pecking him. Unsatisfied, she deepened the kiss. Lying on the floor, John tried to push her away. "Behave, let's go upstairs." "No..." Twisting in his arms, the girl not only refused to leave his body but also let her fingers roam freely. Unable to resist her teasing, John's sanity finally crumbled. He reached for her slender waist, pressing her back onto the floor. "Hope you won't regret this tomorrow whe
As she began to pack up, footsteps echoed outside the office, followed by a knock on her door. "Who's there?" The office door creaked open, revealing the tall figure of Simmons, whom Liora hadn't seen for a few days. Liora's piercing gaze swept over him. "What brings you here?" "Liora, I messed up." Simmons stood at the doorway, silent for a moment, then suddenly began to apologize. His handsome face carried a hint of melancholy. Liora remained silent. After their argument at the hospital, Simmons hadn't visited for several days. Busy with work, she hadn't spared him a thought. She found his forceful interference in her affairs quite off-putting. She had thought the playboy had probably given up on her, but here he was. Liora, not one to yield to pressure, softened her expression. "Stop meddling in my affairs. Let's be ordinary friends." "Liora, I really like you. How can you expect me to t
John looked up, "Don't I get a reward?" Diana: "This was an easy task for you." John: "I ordered Tom to do it." Diana: ... Her bad guy was becoming increasingly hard to treat. "Your reward was given to you yesterday... isn't that enough?" Diana muttered quietly. Looking at her somewhat gloomy face, a faint curve appeared on John's lips involuntarily. Last night... It was indeed good. One had to admit, she had a different charm after having some drinks. After having breakfast, John headed straight to the company. Diana, on the other hand, drove directly to the newly taken over styling studio. Upon arriving, she found that she wasn't the only one there; Frank and Jenny were also present. Jenny's facial injuries had subsided after a visit to the hospital, concealed by makeup with only faint traces visible. Frank, however, was a surprising sight for Diana. Leaning on c
Christopher approached her, reaching out to shake Lora's hand. "Why did you let Scarlett out again? If someone sees her, it'll become a public spectacle." "Scarlett has been cooped up in her room all day. I thought she needed some fresh air, so I let her out." "With her current state, it's better for her to stay indoors and not cause more trouble." Lora glared at him. "What kind of talk is that? Scarlett is our daughter, and despite her current condition, she's still young..." "I feel for her too. I was just upset by her recent behavior. Alright, don't be sad," Christopher consoled her, patting her back in a somewhat dismissive manner. Lora bit her lip, a hint of anger in her eyes. "Have you found out who harmed Scarlett?" "Not yet. The forces behind this are powerful, and Scarlett seems to have attracted some unknown enemy." "Mom, don't cry. Grandfather's birthday is coming up in a few days. Relax a bit, and maybe at the banqu
Colin: "What is it?" "Just give me a kiss~" After saying that, Leah pouted her pink lips and leaned towards Colin's handsome face. Right before she was about to kiss him, he suddenly reached out, pinching her cheek. "Your message just now, what does it mean?" Leah: "Huh?" Colin released her, "Are you going to act a drama?" "Yeah, I am." Leah nodded, "Do you know Lawrence Wood? He seems to be a quite famous producer. He has noticed me to play the female lead in a drama." "Oh." Leah: ... This man is really infuriatingly indifferent. Leah said slowly, "It's an idol drama, with romantic scenes. There might even be kissing scenes..." "Okay." Colin replied. Leah was completely defeated. She couldn't resist saying, "Kissing scenes are child's play. There might even be those more explicit ones, you know, like wet scenes. You understand..." Colin remained silent. Ju
"Well, it just happened naturally." Diana put on a casual expression. Leah showed a disappointed expression, clearly dissatisfied with Diana's vague response. Crossing her arms, Leah smirked, "So who's the one on top?" Diana: ...D*mn it, can you say such things with that captivating face of yours? Jackson, who was driving, originally planned to ignore their conversation, but when the topic suddenly turned to this, he couldn't help but perk up his ears. Can't blame him for being curious. The boss, who was so cold and arrogant in public, but in private with Diana... the contrast was too intriguing! "It just fell into place." Diana made it seem natural. Leah narrowed her eyes, revealing a playful smile, "Alright, you don't have to say it. I can guess, too obvious." With that, she gave Diana a meaningful and knowing look. Leaving Jackson utterly confused. Obvious? This...
Amelia was taken aback, "You're not here for an audition? Then why are you here?" Leah, sitting with crossed legs, displayed an elegant smile, "Of course, to accompany me for the audition." Amelia paused for a moment, then shifted her gaze to Leah next to Diana. Confronted with Leah's calm and composed expression, Amelia's displeasure deepened. This girl was exceptionally beautiful, with gentle features that surpassed Amelia's own beauty. Amelia couldn't help feeling more irked. Who was this random person who suddenly appeared? "Don't think you can become an actress just because you have some looks. You look unfamiliar; you probably got here through some connections." She glanced at Diana and sneered, "Birds of a feather flock together!" Amelia seethed with anger, but Leah remained unperturbed. She sat there, smiling serenely, without uttering a word. Yet, the coldness in her eyes gradually inten
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
