"Then don't try to argue!" James shouted, "It's truly unfortunate for the family. I thought you were just a bit foolish, but I never imagined you'd also like men..."
Ben was very anxious, "Dad, it's not what you think. Wait, what do you mean by 'also like men'?"
James hesitated, then raised his voice, "Don't change the subject. Last time, you told me you liked girls, and now you hit me with this 'surprise'!"
"Dad, let me explain..."
Ben hurriedly explained the situation to James, then said, somewhat helplessly, "Dad, why do you always suspect that I like men? If I were really gay, my two teammates would have gotten together with me a long time ago."
Leo: "???"
Anthony: "???"
Ben explained vigorously, and finally, James reluctantly believed him.
He muttered, "Fine, I get it. If you're just genuinely foolish, then I can relax."
Ben: "..."
Doesn't this sound like he's still insulting him?
...
<Diana slouched against the door, waiting for over half an hour. Feeling like she was about to fall asleep, she finally heard some movement outside. She jolted awake and quickly got up, glancing outside. Bernard and Kismet stood up, exchanged a few words with John, and prepared to leave. Diana sighed in relief. Finally, they were leaving. John also stood up, personally escorting them out. When they reached the elevator, Kismet linked her arm with Bernard's, smiling dignifiedly at John. "I'm quite curious about your fiancée. I wonder what kind of person she is?" John's expression softened, a rare hint of tenderness in his eyes. "She's peerlessly beautiful, unmatched in the world." Kismet was taken aback. "Hearing Mr. Matthews say that, I'm really looking forward to meeting this Ms. Thompson." "There will be a chance." After seeing them off in the elevator, John turned back and retur
"I trust my grandfather's judgment. If he thinks we're a good match, I thought it wouldn't hurt to get to know you better," Charlotte said, raising her wine glass. "Relationships take time to develop, don't they, Sanders?" Albert raised his glass and clinked it with hers. He couldn't shake the feeling that Charlotte wasn't being entirely truthful. Once the dishes arrived, the two started eating and chatting. Throughout, Albert's attitude remained lukewarm, much to Charlotte's discontent. In the past, if Albert had shown this kind of attitude, she wouldn't have given him a second glance. But the Patel family's situation had changed drastically. She had to consider the bigger picture. "The temperature in the private room is quite high," Charlotte suddenly remarked. She reached out and took off her coat, revealing a form-fitting cashmere sweater that accentuated her figure. Paired with her beautiful face, s
Ben nodded and hurriedly walked towards Liora's office with the thermal lunchbox in hand. Entering Liora's office, Ben placed the lunchbox down and nervously waited. Surprisingly, Wesley turned out to be Liora's younger brother. He had played a prank on her own brother. This was getting messier; he hadn't even caught up to Liora, and he had already offended her brother. How was he going to explain when Liora arrived? Rubbing his hands anxiously, Ben began rehearsing his lines. "Dr. Jephson, I was just joking with Wesley last time, but he took it seriously." No, too fake. He had been cursing Wesley just the other day, calling him all sorts of names. "Although Wesley and I don't get along, if he's your brother, I'll tolerate him." That didn't sound right either. It made it seem like all the faults were on Wesley, and he was being magnanimous. Too hypocritical. "I actually like Wesley; it's just that due to our pos
"Wesley, I didn't say Ben; I clearly said bun..." "You keep talking about 'Ben'! Can't you just shut up!?" Wesley erupted. The assistant, feeling wronged, obediently closed his mouth. It was a music festival, and Wesley was driven mad by Fly(Ben). After returning, he locked himself in his room all night, emerging agitated and hypersensitive, uncertain if today's shoot would proceed smoothly. Wesley sat on the chair, glaring at the makeup artist. "What are you standing there for? Start doing my makeup." "Right away." The makeup artist silently prayed, closed his mouth, and began working on Wesley's look. The entire makeup room fell into an eerie silence again. Just then, the door swung open, and Leah entered. This was the lead actors' shared dressing room. Upon entering and seeing Wesley on the chair, Leah hesitated for a moment, then sat down beside him. Leah's stylist immediately approached, sta
"Yes, director!" Amelia was in a great mood. She couldn't help but turn around, running towards Wesley who was standing on the side, asking, "Wesley, how's my look?" Wesley lifted his gaze, glanced over her, then nodded, "Hmm, not bad." "Really?" Amelia's face lit up in surprise. After all, Wesley had always been critical; she had never heard him praise anyone before! Him saying "not bad" was already a high compliment! Amelia felt a bit smug. With her current appearance, she was sure to outshine Leah! She couldn't wait to see Leah's defeated expression~ She asked, "Where's Leah Phillips? Why hasn't she come out yet? Isn't her makeup simpler than mine?" Someone replied, "She's still in the dressing room, but she should be coming out soon." Just as they finished speaking, they heard a call. "She's here, Leah's here!" The sound was heard, and the people on set instinc
Wesley threw out these words, then turned around and left in a huff. Watching his departing figure, Leah turned her head in speechless exasperation. Definitely a menopause. ... After being lectured by Director Brand, Amelia returned to the set with a serious face and resumed filming with Leah. This time, Leah gave her some space, slowly guiding her into the scene and helping her get into character. After several NGs, they finally got it right. It was also time to wrap up. Leah hadn't even had time to eat; she got into her car and headed straight for the address Colin had given her. It was a themed hotel right next to the film set. A hotel... Such a ambiguous place? Leah propped up her cheek, unable to resist starting to fantasize. Could it be that Colin was already waiting for her all cleaned up? If that were the case, should she go straight for it or pretend to be reserve
"Leah, didn't you say you were going out to buy fruits? Why haven't you come back yet? Producer Wood is looking for you right now!" "Well, I just took a bite, and you're already calling me..." Leah glanced at Colin beside her, meeting his scrutinizing gaze. She shifted her eyes away, feeling a bit guilty. "Why is Producer Wood looking for me? Is there something wrong?" "Pay attention to the news!" Emily sighed, "You're getting roasted online, and you seem completely oblivious!" "So what?" Leah asked. "There have been negative rumors about you since yesterday, but they didn't make much impact. However, today it suddenly exploded, and your Twitter is in chaos!" Leah got excited, "Really? So my followers must have increased a lot now?" Emily: ... "Your focus is a bit off, isn't it?" Emily's voice sounded disappointed, "Anyway, hurry back. Producer Wood says the negative publicity is getting too big, and we
Leah smiled slightly, "I just said that casually. Don't be so pessimistic; maybe the PR this time will have a good effect." Emily: ...I'm pessimistic because of what you just said! ... The New Talent Design Competition finals were approaching. Diana finally received the official competition notification. She thought for a moment and shared the news with Mr. Lin. After sending the message at night, there was no reply until the next noon when Diana received a call from Mr. Lin. His voice sounded a bit weak. "Diana, congratulations, you made it to the finals. Now, consider this part of your test passed." "Mr. Lin, are you sick?" Diana expressed concern. "Ah, getting old, can't avoid it." He coughed a few times. Diana was about to offer some comforting words when she heard him say, "Played mahjong with those young guys all night yesterday. Even after sleeping in the morning, still not
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
