Jacob couldn't help but wonder how Joshua changed so quickly. Zoe was good, yet he could forget her that easily.Jacob didn't particularly like women like Sylvia, who wore a happy smile on the outside but had ulterior motives. He found that such people were quite fake. She was like the Evil Queen from ‘Snow White’, where she was being nice to everyone and pleasing to the eye, but no one could see her true intentions. It was like she was wearing a mask. Jacob preferred women like Diana, who were true to their nature. At least he wouldn't feel exhausted being around such people.Compared to Sylvia, Zoe was much better. He was quite sympathetic to her.However, Sylvia was still Joshua's wife, and it was not up to him to judge. If Joshua liked her, then it was fine. She wasn't his wife, and he would divorce her in minutes if his wife were like that.The next day, on his way back to the company, Jacob suddenly remembered that Natasha had mentioned the start of filming for ‘Bangkok Story
"So troublesome," Jacob muttered to himself.He didn't mean to disrespect the client, but Hugh's demands were a bit nitpicky and quite tormenting. If it were Jacob, he would have quit such a job long ago. He needed to figure out how to phrase his response to make the bodyguard accept it. It seemed like finding an assistant to convey his message would have to be prioritised.He had been wanting to find a vice president for a while now.Seeing Natasha looking at him with surprise, he glared and asked, "What are you looking at?"He looked quite fierce, almost scaring her.However, this time, Natasha didn't pay him any attention and didn't argue with him.Jacob still responded to Hugh's words, stating that he would share the bodyguard's opinions. Of course, due to security needs, the bodyguard had to do what was necessary.Natasha translated again.Hugh helplessly shrugged his shoulders.When Jacob was about to leave, he looked up and down at Natasha, then jokingly said, "You tran
Sure enough, Jacob's phone started ringing after Queta left. It was from Sylvia."Jacob, did Queta come to find you?" she asked."She's here. I've already arranged an office for her," he replied."Let me tell you, Jacob , Queta is a talented graduate from Genovia Foreign Language University. She comes from a good family and is in the textile business. She scored first in her major, Level 8, in the entire school. I'm introducing her to you. Not bad, right?" Sylvia said, somewhat pleased with herself.He couldn't stand Sylvia's ‘showing off’ tone. He didn't know when he started to dislike her so much. It accumulated from various things in life. It might also be because Sylvia defeated Zoe and became Joshua's wife. He thought Zoe had a good character and wasn't superficial. She had a touch of purity. It could also be because Sylvia constantly relied on Joshua's favor and did whatever she wanted. In the end, everything was blamed on Joshua, which annoyed Jacob. It could also be because
Jacob went to see Zoe, but they had no prior arrangements. Even if they were to meet, she might not even acknowledge him. So he couldn't say too much in advance, as it would be embarrassing and humiliating if things didn't go well.When they arrived at the ‘Bangkok Story’ set, Jacob and Queta stood by the perimeter, blending in with a group of students and observing the people in the centre of the set.Jacob saw Natasha standing in the centre, holding a script and discussing the scene with Zoe, who nodded frequently.Natasha's appearance seemed to be of a different type compared to Zoe's. Zoe had a delicate and fair complexion, while Natasha had beautiful facial features, exuding a youthful and girlish charm. Her skin was firm and slightly tanned. She wore sunglasses, and her short hair wasn't the typical style; it had a unique touch that accentuated her beauty. She wore a white camisole with a black and white checkered shirt.They hadn't noticed Jacob and Queta yet.Queta turned
Jacob glanced at Natasha, then shifted his gaze to Zoe and Hugh.Now, what Hugh said doesn't matter anymore because at this moment, he had his arm around Zoe's shoulder. Sparks were flying between them, and everyone held their breath, knowing exactly what they were waiting for.Sure enough, they kissed next.“Damn it!” Jacob curses angrily in his mind. “Is a female celebrity's kiss so worthless? Just kissing casually?” he wondered.He was furious and wanted to kick something to vent his anger...They kiss passionately, and the kiss lasts a long time...Seeing this, he is even more infuriated.Meanwhile, Queta on the side clapped happily like an idiot, thrilled that her favorite actors had finally kissed on screen.On the other side, Natasha hurries over.Queta waved to her earlier but didn't know if it was for her. Besides, they were filming the most dramatic scene just now, so she couldn't be distracted. Now that this scene is almost finished, she has already instructed the
Queta, with her hands clasped together, looked like an avid fan and said, "It's an unbelievable day. I never thought I could meet my idol, Zoe."Jacob dismissed her and saw Zoe walking towards them."Long time no see," she greeted him.He nodded slightly."You guys know each other? So, Boss, you came to see Miss Zoe?" Queta says.Jacob furrowed his brow and cursed inside his heart, “why does she talk so much?”"Let's go, I'll take you to a nice place. We can eat, sing, and play cards," Queta says.Jacob looked around himself."Three women and me, a man?" he said discontentedly. "I'll go first.""Why? We need one more person," Zoe blushes and says, "Without you, we'll be short of one. Let's go."Natasha has been silently observing the whole time and said nothing.The four of them get into Jacob's car and head to the place Queta mentioned. The driver had already left, so Jacob took over the wheels.He had no interest in socializing with three women over dinner and drinks.In
"This Phantom Club, is it yours?" Zoe asked Queta as they walked towards the private room."Yeah. Today, my distinguished guests have come, so I naturally want to show them my utmost sincerity," Queta said excitedly.After entering the lobby, she told Zoe, "Idol, you don't have any schedule this afternoon, right? If not, let's have some drinks. We can eat, sing, and play cards. We'll have a great time.""No schedule," Zoe glanced at Natasha, hoping for her confirmation. Natasha nodded."Shall we start with pizza?" Queta suggested happily. Then she turned to Natasha and said, "My dad specifically called me and told me to take good care of you, cousin. Enjoy the food and drinks."Natasha nodded.Jacob came to have dinner with three women, and his mood wasn't that great. If it weren't for Zoe being there, he would have left long ago. Although the room was spacious, the room suddenly felt crowded when a few waiters came in to serve them hot pot and dishes. The steam from the hot pot
Natasha didn't sing; she hid in the corner and watched them sing.Jacob's singing was quite pleasant; his voice was magnetic and his pitch was good. It was comparable to a professional singer, and Natasha enjoyed it. Zoe's singing was even better; she had sung the theme songs for several TV dramas.Jacob and Zoe even sang a love song together.Seeing their seamless collaboration, Natasha felt a tinge of bitterness in her heart. She felt like an ugly duckling, sitting there alone.After some time, Zoe also let loose, her face flushed.Afterward, Jacob and Zoe sat on the sofa, one drank mineral water and the other drank beer.Now, Jacob was in a good mood. He drank and shared his thoughts with her as they spoke and laughed together.Next, it was Queta's turn to sing. She held the microphone and faced Natasha, saying, "Cousin, would you like to sing a song?""I won't sing. I don't know how," Natasha waved her hand and declined.Jacob guessed that she couldn't sing, probably tone-
Benjamin walked to her side and suddenly hugged her. It was as if there were thousands of words that could not be said. Jacey did not refute. It was as if the two of them had known each other for a long time. It was as if they had known each other for a long time."Your mother did a good job with this exhibition," Jacey said."It's good. After all, you're an expert in this field," Benjamin said. "Or if you have any requests when you get married, tell my mother and let her customize the most beautiful jewelry for you.""Married?" Jacey didn't understand.She had never thought about marriage. Why did she feel so close to her when Benjamin mentioned it?She still felt quite confused."I'll treat you to a meal later?" Benjamin said. "What do you want to eat?"Jacey's eyes lit up. "Hotpot? How about a hotpot?"Benjamin smiled and said, "I thought you had a profound hobby. This is it."Jacey smiled again.Jacey didn't like the feeling of being surrounded by people, so she chose the
Kenny smoked as he spoke. He had the look of a veteran in society. It was hard not to believe that he was a nouveau riche who did not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of his subordinates to save money."Sir, you've found the right person. Come and take a look." The workshop owner said. Then, he whispered a few words into Kenny's ear and asked, "Can you accept it?""What's so unacceptable about that? I'm definitely showing it to Party A. These people grew up in the countryside. What kind of milk have they drunk? I can't tell if it's true or not," Kenny said."Alright, alright," the workshop owner said with a smile."Just don't make it obvious. I'll go take a look at the manufacturing workshop." Kenny said.The owner of the workshop was initially quite shy, but Kenny said that he had ordered a lot, so the other party agreed.As soon as he entered the workshop, Jacey secretly turned on the pinhole camera when the workshop owner was not paying attention and filmed the production proce
Jacey felt that under Kenny's serious and unsmiling appearance, there was a soft and warm heart.This note looked like it had been around for a long time. It was unknown how long Kenny searched last night before he found it and gave it to Jacey so easily.Jacey left.However, she did not expect that something would happen on her first day there.She brought a vacuum camera and made her clothes look like rural women's. After finding the milk production point, she said that she wanted to order milk in large quantities because she heard that the milk here was very cheap.The people in the workshop looked at each other and said, "I'm not selling!"The people in the workshop were very smart and vigilant. Their workshop had a fixed delivery channel. This woman was alone and was unlikely to be here to order. They found an excuse and sent Jacey away.No matter how much Jacey dawdled, the other party refused to let her in.For a moment, Jacey didn't know what to do. She was quite depres
Jacey was a little stunned. She really didn't know much about what the parents were talking about.Moreover, she hadn't interacted with Benjamin for a few days. Moreover, when Ashlyn came to visit this time, she didn't say a word about him. It made her feel very uneasy. She even wondered if he didn't mean that at all. It was all her own wishful thinking…For the past few days, Benjamin had not come to look for Jacey. She had not contacted him either.However, a few days later, Jacey received a Whatsapp message from Benjamin. There were many photos. It was a rather high-class living room. There were boxes in the living room. The living room was simple and noble, like a top-notch courtyard house.[This is the showroom and display cabinet for my mother's medieval jewelry. How about letting your mother take a look?] Benjamin said.[Where is this place? This place is so beautiful.][My mother's dowry. The courtyard house in Genovia.] Benjamin said.Jacey thought to herself, "As expec
Today, Benjamin had already returned home."How is it? How's your first time meeting your in-laws alone?" Calvin teased Ashlyn."It's quite good. I'm preparing to hold a medieval jewelry exhibition and then let my employees learn medieval video skills. I said that I wanted to use their jewelry as an exhibition, but they didn't even want the deposit. How generous," Ashlyn said lazily as she leaned against the sofa."It's… it's over?" Calvin looked at Ashlyn and said in surprise.Benjamin sat there and smiled."What else?" Ashlyn asked."What are you going to do this time? Aren't you going to look for your daughter-in-law? Did you see what she looked like?" Calvin poured a cup of tea for Ashlyn.After so many years, Ashlyn still hadn't changed from her usual macho self. In fact, she was even more macho than before. Perhaps Calvin had been the one to deal with everything after marriage, developing Ashlyn's habit of not using her brain.Of course, it only meant that she didn't use
For some reason, Ashlyn felt like crying when she saw this. In the past, these jewelry had traveled to another country. Now, these jewelry were all back with stories.She thought about how the person who owned these jewelry had brought them overseas and brought them back…She felt that the Irving family was worthy of admiration.Linda had gone out at some point. Seeing that Ashlyn was looking at her very seriously, she didn't disturb her.When she came in again, she was carrying a cup of coffee. The fragrant Americano she'd just ordered from the coffee machine on the first floor. It was made from good coffee beans.She handed the coffee to Ashlyn."Have a cup of coffee when you're tired. Anyway, these jewelry don't have long legs. They won't run away on their own," Linda said. "You can come and take a look whenever you want. I've always been here."Only then did Ashlyn feel that she had been watching for an hour or two, but she had always been like a pious primary school student
On Saturday afternoon, Ashlyn drove to Jacey's house, a very simple villa.Ashlyn knew that writers liked to live in such a quiet place because they had inspiration in such a place.Jacey's mother, Linda, was already standing on her steps to welcome her.Linda was dressed in a Chinese-style robe. She looked very ancient, but because she was slender, she looked especially good. She looked like a fairy.Ashlyn was dressed in a very fashionable modern outfit. She was wearing a knee-length skirt, pearl earrings, and earrings. She looked especially round and beautiful. One look and one could tell that she was the kind of person who had never experienced the blow of life."I'm Jacey's mother. Nice to meet you, Mrs. Conrad." Linda reached out and held Isobel's hand. "Jacey said that you're coming to our house to take a look. I am so happy. I specially brought all the jewelry from the other houses here and packed them up. If these jewelry can be displayed in the exhibition and let everyon
"Excuse me, how did you know about me?" Jacey asked."Oh, Benjamin's phone was on the table that day. He went to the washroom and I happened to see the photo album he was looking through. I picked it up and saw these few pieces of jewelry. You know it too. As jewelry makers, we won't let go of those rare jewelry no matter what. I asked Benjamin where these pieces of jewelry came from and he told me about you," Ashlyn said neither servile nor overbearing.She understood a girl's mentality very well. She knew that if the woman found out that the man had taken the initiative to leak her news to her parents, she would be very disgusted and feel passive. Therefore, she did not say that. Instead, she said that she had seen it herself. She even said that Benjamin was looking at these photos at that time.Jacey's heart would probably feel warm. After all, a man was looking at her photo behind her back. She should have a good impression of this man.Jacey really thought so. When she heard A
After Benjamin returned home, he showed Ashlyn the jewelry he had taken for Jacey.Ashlyn was very knowledgeable. One look at this jewelry and she knew that it was priceless.Moreover, the girl wearing the jewelry also had extremely good skin and was extremely delicate.Calvin, who was sitting at the side, also watched.However, Ashlyn didn't just look at the jewelry. She said, "You only bought jewelry. Who is this person wearing jewelry behind you?"Ashlyn asked Benjamin gossipily."Don't ask," Benjamin said.Ashlyn smiled. "You said that you only took photos of the jewelry but didn't take photos of her. Aren't you trying to arouse my curiosity? Now that I'm curious, you're not making a move. However, I've been working on researching National Jewelry recently, so I'm lacking samples in this area. When are you going to ask this girl out? Let me take a closer look. From her appearance, I think she's dressed very well. Moreover, I can see her face from her bone structure. I think
