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
"Blue Rose seems skeptical," Tullia put her phone down, "It seems we need more convincing evidence. I'll contact her again later." "Alright." Poly was not pleased. A newcomer with no apparent significance was causing unnecessary trouble. If not for her apparent talent in design, Poly wouldn't bother with her. .... After preparing herself in the room, Diana was about to head downstairs when she felt a warm flow in her nose. She wiped it and found her hand stained with bright red blood. A nosebleed? Diana was surprised; she had been in good health for years and hadn't experienced a nosebleed in a long time. She dismissed it and cleaned up the blood, waiting until there were no signs of further bleeding before opening the door. Outside, Jackson was already waiting in the car. Diana got in, ready to visit Grandpa Matthews at the Matthews' residence. Today had a feeling of meeting the parents, so she presented herself as a r
"This pair is a perfect match, truly a match made in heaven!" "Mr. Matthews is so lucky. When will he have a great-grandchild?" "Not married yet, but it seems not far off. Haha, I'm looking forward to the wedding celebration—" Listening to the praises around her, Ana stood in place, staring somewhat dazed at the couple in front of her. She observed John's hand on Diana's waist and felt a profound shock within. In her impression, this man was unattainable and unmatched. He was the perennial ice, the coldest snow at the top of the mountain. She couldn't fathom him allowing anyone to stand beside him. But now... "By the way, this is Mrs. Swift's granddaughter, Ana. You've met a few times before, remember?" Grandpa Matthews suddenly spoke, smiling as he made the introduction. John turned his head, his gaze sweeping over. Ana instantly became nervous. She widened her eyes, fingers slig
Diana picked up John's photo, slowly put it in her bag, and continued, "He's my man. I hope you can understand that." Ana's chest rose and fell slightly, provoked by Diana's nonchalant possessiveness. Watching Diana walk away, Ana muttered, "You're not even worthy of Matthews." Diana turned, "Huh?" What nonsense was she talking about? She and John were a perfect match in looks and intelligence. How could this girl, who appeared out of nowhere, dare to oppose? Ana bit her lip, meeting Diana's displeased gaze. Undeterred, she continued, "Apart from your beauty, you have nothing. You don't even know how to appreciate Mr. Matthews. A woman like you, Mr. Matthews probably doesn't even like you for anything..." "Who said that? Besides beauty, I have a perfect figure! Well, at least John has certified that through our experiences together..." Diana said, trailing off with a cough. Ana almost thought she had misheard. "Diana, d
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
