He was furious. "Lucas, you hit someone!"Lucas had been holding it in for the sake of the entire production team, but that fat pig was pushing his luck. He really couldn't take it anymore."President Zhang, do you know whether I hit you or you're shameless? Even if you like that taste, it has to be consensual. I'm not interested in that. I hope you can find someone else!" Lucas said coldly."Aren't you afraid that I'll withdraw my investment? When the time comes, the entire production team will blame you!" President Zhang said fiercely.Lucas smiled coldly. Just as he was about to answer, he suddenly heard a clear voice. "Eh, President Zhang, are you withdrawing your investment? That's great. I was thinking of investing. I can fill in your gap!"Lucas looked over and saw Yves Yates standing not far away.His face immediately turned red. He did not know when she had arrived. Did she see his sorry state?Seeing Lucas looking at her, Yves smiled at him and said in an intimate tone
Yves didn't stay in the private room for long before she bade farewell and left. When she left, the director hurriedly called out to Lucas, "Lucas, quick, help us send President Yates off!"Lucas did not want to stay and continue socializing, so he agreed and accompanied Yves out."Are you having a gathering with friends today?" Lucas asked Yves.She must have had a social engagement to show up at the hotel."I'm an old friend over there. It doesn't matter if I go back or not. Coincidentally, I've had a little too much to drink. I'll go home and rest."Yves rubbed her temples as she spoke. She did look a little tired.Lucas thought about how he had always wanted to thank her but had never had the chance. Now was the perfect time to bring it up. "Then why don't I treat you to a coffee, take a break, and sober up?"Yves smiled. "Previously, you asked me out a few times, but I was so busy that I didn't have time. I was still feeling embarrassed but not anymore. It's just as well. L
Lucas was embarrassed and didn't know what to say."Don't misunderstand. I'm not saying that I want to sleep with you. I'm saying that if everyone thinks you have anything to do with me, they can use my reputation to help you block some bad romantic relationships."Take tonight for example. After President Zhang discovered that we're friends, he didn't dare to have any designs on you. The others in the private room didn't dare either."I, Yves Yates, have been in the business world for so many years. I have some face. Even if some people wanted to touch you, they would have to think twice when they think about me.""But this will damage your reputation…" Lucas said with his eyes lowered.Yves smiled. "My reputation? My reputation comes from my financial strength and has nothing to do with anything else. As long as I have my strength, my reputation will always be good.""Of course, if you think that everyone's misunderstanding has troubled you, we can also make a statement at the
"Oh…" Yves turned around and looked around. "Is there a bar nearby—""Go to my room to drink. I don't want others to see me drinking casually," Lucas interrupted her.Yves fell silent for a moment before replying, "Alright."Half an hour later, Lucas and Yves sat on the carpet in the room, a pile of beer beside them.Lucas opened a can of beer for Yves and handed it to her. Then, he opened another can for himself and gulped it down."Drink slowly. There's no one else here," Yves hurriedly advised.Lucas acted as if he didn't hear her. He only looked at Yves after he finished the entire can of beer.He wiped the beer at the corner of his mouth and smiled at Yves. "I'm fine. Actually, my alcohol tolerance is not bad. Sometimes, I can't get drunk even if I want to.""Being drunk isn't a good thing. You still want to get drunk?" Yves raised her head and took a sip of beer before replying with a smile."You can forget the pain when you're drunk." Lucas looked at her faintly, his ey
All these years, although he had been in the entertainment industry, he had always been clean. He always wanted to give his virginity to the person he loved the most.However, Sonnet and Lindy, the two women he had once loved, did not belong to him. In the end, his purity was given to Yves Yates.However, he did not regret it at all now. It was good that he had given it to Yves. This woman was very outstanding. Other than having the attraction of the opposite sex, she also had a hint of motherly love. This was what he needed.In her arms, he could do whatever he wanted, even if it meant crying like a three-year-old child!Lucas lay down again and recalled everything that happened last night. The more he recalled, the more his heart longed. He began to look forward to the next time they met.He called Yves, who picked up quickly. "Are you awake?""Why didn't you wake me up when you left?" he asked."I saw that you were very tired, so I couldn't bear to wake you up," Yves said wit
"Of course I can't!" Lucas said without thinking.Yves smiled. "That's why we should just do it quietly. Besides, it's quite interesting to do it quietly.""But I miss you every day that I don't see you."Yves tapped the tip of his nose. "Me too. Let's meet when we're free. As the saying goes, distance produces beauty. I'm also afraid that if the two of us stick together every day, we'll quickly get tired of each other."Lucas was convinced by her. It should be said that as long as it was what she wanted, he would listen willingly.Sometimes, he even found it unbelievable that he was so bewitched by Yves that he would even be mindlessly obedient to her."Although I'm very happy that you don't want to be separated from me, I still have to remind you. Darling, don't waste your career. I don't like men wasting their careers for women," Yves added.Lucas's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly felt a little ashamed.Recently, all he could think about was how to hang out with Yves.
Brooklyn nodded. "I'm here to report this matter to you! I've investigated Johnson Yates' background carefully. There don't seem to be any problems at the moment. He's an orphan who grew up in a welfare institute. Later on, he went to the United States with outstanding results after getting into university. In the United States, he displayed outstanding ability and planned a few financing projects. After returning to the country, he met Zachary Strombold and applied to be the vice president of Paragon Education Group.""On the surface, there's nothing wrong with his resume. His interaction with Sonnet was more than six years ago when he returned to the country. He accidentally got drunk and had sex with Sonnet at a small wealthy club. After that, he went overseas. Sonnet didn't remember who that man was, which was why Sonnet raised the two children alone."Later on, something happened to Maxwell, and Sonnet moved to Paradise Residential Area. Coincidentally, Johnson lived above her h
"Help me pay close attention to the movements over there. If there are any abnormalities, let me know immediately," Maxwell said to Marcus.Marcus patted his chest. "Don't worry, I'll keep an eye out for you!"Maxwell nodded and walked out of Marcus's office with a frown.Who was investigating Sonnet's background? Was this person investigating Sonnet purely because he was interested in Sonnet, or was he suspecting something?Something flashed across his mind. When he returned to his office, he immediately called Carter. "Keep an eye out for Qin Shi and the children's backgrounds. If there is, investigate immediately and see who's investigating."Carter agreed and said to Maxwell, "By the way, CEO Maxwell, the investigation you asked me to check on the car accident last time has concluded.""How so?""That person was indeed instigated by someone. He pretended to be poor on the surface, but he secretly found a lover and spent a lot of money on that lover. I found out from his love
