Liora slightly extended her arms, "I can't move well, carry me upstairs."
"Sure..."
As if waking from a dream, Ben quickly reached out, delicately lifting Liora from the passenger seat.
As an entertainer, he had regular workout sessions to maintain his physique, so carrying Liora wasn't much of a strain.
Yet, Ben's legs felt a bit weak.
Excited.
She was so close to him.
Leaning her head on his chest, her slender fingers curled around his neck. A faint fragrance surrounded him, and he felt like he was in a dream.
Suppressing the excitement within, Ben carried the beauty and brought her into the apartment.
As he placed her on the bed, with his hands now empty, Ben suddenly felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.
He didn't want to let go...
Liora furrowed her brows, leaning against the edge of the bed with her chest heaving, an expression that appeared rather unusual.
Ben felt a sense of con
A kiss! He had kissed Liora yesterday! The soft touch still seemed to linger, and Ben absentmindedly reached out, gently touching his lips. With a "whoosh," the bathroom door swung open. Ben instinctively turned his head and saw Liora wrapped in a towel, walking out of the bathroom. With wet hair falling on her shoulders, revealing a snowy neck and sexy collarbone, and two long, straight legs, he couldn't help but stare. "Awake?" Liora's tone was calm. Panicking, Ben turned away, rubbing his hands together, unable to make direct eye contact. In a daze, he suddenly felt something was off. He lifted the blanket covering him and looked down. Oh no. Where are his pants?! Now, he was left with only a pair of boxers clinging to his body. No wonder he felt a bit chilly down there. The problem was... He remembered stopping in time yesterday; nothing happened, right?!
"Is that so? Then you better come back and tell me all about it." Ben blinked, "What's going on? Why do I feel like I heard Ramingo's voice?" "Because I'm right here. I had Anthony put it on speaker!" Ramingo's voice echoed faintly, "Ben, after the last lesson, I thought you had changed your ways, but it seems you're still out there chasing women?!" "No, no, it's not like that!" Ben was startled, "This time it's serious. She's a doctor!" Ramingo fell silent for a moment. Then he sneered, "Well, you sure play around." Ben: ??? Ramingo spoke sternly over the phone, "You've got half an hour. Hurry up and get back here!" Over forty minutes later, Ben pushed open the door to Ramingo's office, panting heavily. Upon entering, he saw Leo and Anthony sitting on the couch, their legs tightly crossed, wearing expressions of misery. Clearly, they had just been reprimanded. Feeling uneasy, Ben immediately fla
After a brief conversation with Leah, Colin pocketed his phone and descended the stairs.He bent down, sitting beside Diana."Diana, you accompanied Leah to the interview last time, right?""Yeah.""Is that film crew reliable?""Very much so. Brand is the director, quite famous. And the male lead is the current idol, Wesley, really handsome in person."Diana sighed and, noticing Colin's expression, became a bit serious.At that moment, James walked in.Seeing Colin's displeased expression, he was puzzled. "Why that look, Colin? Did you just break up?"Diana slowly spoke, "Colin just talked to Leah on the phone."James instantly understood, "She called to break up?"He slapped his thigh."I knew it! A beautiful girl like her would only be interested in you if she was sick, and as soon as she recovers, she's gone!"Diana: ... Dad, that's a bit too much!Colin lifted his head slowly, "No,
Hawkesworth approached Ben, whispering urgently, "Ben, let's go. Confronting him like this will only lead to trouble if we're identified." Ben remained unmoved, "If he wants to leave, let him. I'm not backing down now." Hawkesworth ran to Wesley, anxious, "Wesley, come on! We're public figures; if this gets worse, none of us will benefit. Can't we just let it go?" Wesley sneered, "Let it go? They apologize and compensate, then I might consider dropping it." Hawkesworth turned back, "Ben, the concert is just after the New Year. If something goes wrong now, Ramingo won't just ruin you, but he'll ruin me too!" Ben stood firm, "I won't back down after throwing those words. Whoever gives in first is the coward. I can't surrender now." Hawkesworth was on the verge of tears, "Fine, I'm the coward. I'm the coward, okay? Please, just get in the car!" Ben stood his ground, outwardly calm but inwardly anxious. 'Why did I agree to
Diana chuckled, "Don't worry, Ben. I'll be there to support you. Just make sure to give me an extra ticket for Leah." Colin chimed in, "Take me with you." "Diana, brother loves you~" Ben eagerly looked at Diana, his beautiful eyes filled with gratitude. Indeed, his precious little sister was always the best to him! Diana, resting her chin on her hand, turned to Andrew, sensing something unusual. Today, Andrew seemed unusually quiet. She leaned in, whispering, "Andrew, are you feeling down?" Andrew, with a calm expression, said, "Dad is planning another arranged date for me. He says I'm twenty-nine after the New Year, getting too old." Behind his golden-rimmed glasses, a glint of light flashed in his eyes. "If it doesn't work out, I'll have to be honest with him about my sexual orientation." Diana hesitated, "Given Dad's temper, it might not be easy for him to accept... but I can't be sure. Last t
Andrew revved the engine, and the car slowly pulled away. As they passed by John, Andrew greeted, "Mr. Matthews, long time no see." John looked at him without moving. Andrew didn't mind, drove away slowly. Once he left, Diana hurriedly ran towards John. She buried herself in the warmth of his broad embrace, smelling his familiar scent. Her heart skipped a beat, a familiar sense of security surged within. John held her waist, lowered his head, and affectionately kissed her in her long hair. Then he asked, "Did Andrew experience something traumatic?" Diana looked up, her dark eyes fixed on him. "What did he say to you?" "He just said, 'long time no see.'" "...That's a bit unusual, but it's progress, I suppose." At least there's no hostility towards John as before. Diana embraced his lean waist, rubbing against his chest, "I missed you." "I missed you too," John whispered. Ve
Kevin, wearing green dinosaur pajamas, stood at his doorway, tilting his little face, eyes eagerly looking at him. Yosef narrowed his eyes, "Why aren't you sleeping so late? What's up?" "Bro, I had a scary dream, and I got a bit scared, so I came to find you." Kevin hugged his big thigh, blinking his big eyes up at him, "Didn't expect the light in your room to be on; I thought maybe you weren't sleeping either." Yosef lifted him inside and closed the door. He walked to the sofa, casually taking a seat. "You're a man, it's just a dream. What's there to be scared of?" "It's terrifying," Kevin said seriously, looking at him. "I had a terrifying dream." "What did you dream about?" "I dreamt that you died." Yosef: ... Kevin looked at him. "So, I wanted to come and check on you." "Check if I'm really dead?" Kevin hesitated and nodded. Luckily. His brother sat there, seem
Andrew asked, "Dad, aren't you jealous?" "What do I have to be jealous of? Am I as immature as you guys?" James said with a serious face, then flashed a triumphant smile, "Diana gave me a New Year's gift early in the morning. What do I have to be jealous of?" The three brothers: ... .... With the chime of the New Year, the Thompson family gathered for a joyous reunion dinner. James had an exceptionally pleasant New Year this year. His beloved daughter and John had finally gotten engaged. Colin, the wooden-headed one, had also found a girlfriend, and even the least sensible Ben had started pursuing women. Only Andrew remained a perennial bachelor. Thinking about this, James hesitated several times before speaking. He quietly asked Diana, "Diana, over the years, I've tried to find the right match for your eldest brother, but nothing seems to suit him. Have you ever figured out what type he likes? Has he ever confi
