As he was thinking of something perverted, a lewd light flashed across his eyes.Sonnet felt like someone was watching her from behind, but she did not turn around to look.It was easy to imagine that Micah would not let it go easily, so she had to come up with a plan.“Which uncle’s son is he?” she asked Maxwell.One must always know the enemy in order to be victorious in all battles, so she must understand clearly whose son this Micah guy was.“Third Uncle, Uncle Welson.”“The one who came to our house last time and insisted on lifting the covers off the bed?”Maxwell nodded.Sonnet clicked her tongue. As expected, like father, like son. An apple never fell far from the tree.“We have to be careful these days and try not to be alone, lest he retaliates,” Sonnet said to Maxwell.Maxwell nodded and looked up to ask Sonnet, “Where are the kids?”“When you went to the bathroom, they said they wanted to try and go back by themselves, so I let Jaybie and Lune take Shay back firs
Sonnet nodded. “Yes, what’s wrong?”The man smiled. “I’m the lobby manager of Starry Sky Restaurant. Your table has been reserved. Please follow me inside!” He even made a ‘please’ gesture and walked ahead.Sonnet and Maxwell exchanged a glance and followed the manager inside with the children.As they walked, Sonnet wondered, ‘Could it be that Logan had helped them book the reservation?’However, how did he know they were going to Starry Sky Restaurant?The manager led them into a private room. Except for the side with the door, the other three sides were floor-to-ceiling glass, offering views of the mountains and the burning sunset in the sky.When they arrived earlier, Sonnet had noticed the restaurant’s layout. According to the room layout, this room with a view of the sunset and floor-to-ceiling glass should be the best room.It was unlikely that ordinary tourists could reserve the best room. Was it really Logan’s work?“What would you like to have this evening?” The manag
“Ah... No…” Jessie murmured. “I thought my sister was probably busy, so I didn’t invite her along.”“Since we’ve coincidentally met at dinner time, why don’t we all eat together? It’ll be more lively with more people around!” Hayden suggested.“No need.”“No need.”Sonnet and Jessie refused in unison.Hearing this, Hayden raised his eyebrows. “What’s wrong? Don’t you two sisters like eating together?”Sonnet was about to agree with him, but Jessie spoke up first, “No, no. That’s not it. How could it be? But my sister came with her husband and they’re having a family dinner, so it wouldn’t be appropriate for us to join in.”After she was done, she nervously looked at Sonnet, afraid that she might say something that would be unfavorable to her.How could Sonnet not understand her little scheme?Anyway, she did not want to have dinner with Jessie either, so she went along with it. “It doesn’t matter to us, but my younger sister is usually very busy with work and doesn’t even have
Lune hugged Jessie’s leg and looked up at her, saying, “You’re so nice, Aunt Jess!”The juice on her little hands was smeared onto Jessie’s skirt.Jessie almost hissed out in horror! This skirt was a limited edition that she had found after searching for it for a long time, and now this little brat had dirtied it! Ahh! How heartbreaking!She was convulsing inside, but she had to put on a generous front, so much so that her whole face twisted and her expression was extremely unnatural.Sonnet laughed inwardly and pulled Lune back. “Since we’re all here, come and sit.”The few of them then took their seats. Maxwell and Hayden sat next to each other with Sonnet and the three children on Maxwell’s right-hand side and Jessie on Hayden’s left-hand side. “This private room is the best one in Starry Sky Restaurant. Sonnet, you truly have it in you. Even my friend who’s the CEO of a pharmaceutical company couldn’t book the best room, but you did it so easily!”Hayden said with a smi
They were more like fire and water!“But I never see you visiting Myles at Westfield Hospital,” Hayden added.“Yeah, me neither. I haven’t seen Aunt Jess visit Grandpa at our house either. We just met her today!” Lune innocently chimed in.Jessie gritted her teeth, wishing she could just shut up this little brat.“Hehel, Auntie’s been really busy with work, and I haven’t had the time to visit Grandpa since he left the hospital. I go to Westfield Hospital often, but unfortunately, I’ve never run into Mr. Gunn there,” Jessie hastily explained.Sonnet sneered. “Yeah, you always seem to come at the wrong time.”Jessie stayed silent. She knew that if Sonnet did not badmouth her at this moment, she would already be considered lucky. She had to endure this kind of mockery.Everything was for the sake of giving Hayden a good impression in order to move forward with her plans.“The food is getting cold, let’s eat!” Maxwell suddenly exclaimed.Everyone focused their attention on the d
The effect of the designer bag was really good. In less than half an hour, Louise came back with the news. “He’s at Misty Fragrance Bar, drinking with a few bosses.”Jessie put down her powder compact upon hearing this. She had just redone her makeup with thick black mascara and seductive black eyeshadow, which made her look alluring and charming.She then took out a fishtail skirt and put it on with a backless suspender top. She finished off the outfit with a pink fur jacket, which made her look both seductive and wild. It was a far cry from her previous intellectual style.Louise widened her eyes and said, “Aren’t you afraid of ruining your image like this?”“Isn’t Hayden a two-faced person? He’s serious at work, but he turns into a wolf at night. A two-faced person will be attracted to another two-faced person. Let’s give it a try,” Jessie said.Upon hearing this, Louise adjusted her makeup a bit, and the two of them went to Misty Fragrance Bar.The bar was dimly lit inside, a
The fool who married Sonnet seemed to be the second young master of the Brooks family, and this one was the third young master…She scrutinized the newcomer and saw that he was quite handsome but dressed in a bit of a hip-hop style with a somewhat shady demeanor.Compared to Hayden, he was indeed a bit lacking in charisma, but he must be quite wealthy!With this thought in mind, Micah had already struck up a conversation with her.He was the type of person who would never let a beauty slip by. In the afternoon, he saw a beauty who turned out to be the fool’s wife. Now, he saw a wild beauty with Hayden.“Is this beautiful lady our Hay Hay’s girlfriend?” Micah asked tentatively.If not, he still had a chance.Jessie looked at Hayden, and Hayden replied, “No, just a friend.”Micah’s heart skipped a beat, and he squeezed forward. “Long time no see, Hay. You don’t mind us having a drink together, do you?”“Of course not,” Hayden said before instructing the bartender, “Make another
Upon seeing Hayden enter, Logan pushed the wooden table top that was floating on the surface of the water toward the edge of the pool.“Want one?" He invited, taking a puff of his cigar.Hayden slid into the hot spring along the poolside, letting out a sigh of relief as the warm water enveloped him.He pushed the table top back toward Logan and gave him a disdainful look. “Smoke less. Don’t you know it’s harmful to your health?”Logan blew out a smoke ring. “Stop being so pretentious. The harm caused by my smoking is nothing compared to the damage caused by your excessive indulgence!”Hayden muttered a curse under his breath, then slapped the water’s surface, causing droplets to fly up and splash Logan in the face.“You son of a b*tch!” Logan retaliated by splashing water at Hayden.In an instant, the two grown men were like children, playing and ‘fighting’ with each other, causing the pool to become chaotic.They were having a great time, but the people around them were suffer
