"No, it's not solely mine. This company was established together with my friend!" Culver said with a smile. Culver walked to the elevator, reached out his hand to press on the button. Then, the elevator door opened slowly. Chloe followed Culver into the elevator, and the door closed back swiftly. "Culver, why are your employees still working so late in the hour?" Chloe noticed the employees were bustling about in the lobby as she entered the building. Culver smiled and rubbed her head, "Well, it's nearing the month's end so they have a deadline to close the company's accounts, which is why they are still working now." Chloe lifted her head, looked at Culver, and asked with a smile, "Culver, if I lost my job one day, do leave an opening for me in your company, okay?" Staring at Chloe's ingenuous and trusting eyes, Culver lost himself in it... "Sure, the door will always be open and waiting for you," Culver said affectionately. Culver lik
Having been caught by his employee, Culver coughed awkwardly. Realizing that he had gotten distracted by Chloe, Culver immediately composed himself and spoke to the executives that had entered into his office, "This report is good. I'll take a look at it in detail again and hand it to the CEO. You can all clock off work now." The executives nodded in compliance. As they walked out of the office, they instinctively glanced at the woman who was sauntering across Culver's office, hypothesizing their relationship status in their hearts. After his workers left, Chloe turned to Culver and said, "Culver, your office is unexpectedly big, and looking at the night view with this tower window is just breathtaking." Culver spun the pen in his hand while his gaze lingered on Chloe. Gently, he said, "If you like it, you can come anytime you want to." "Ha ha...," Chloe chuckled. Chloe walked towards a chair at a corner and sat down. Looking at Culver, she waved her
Ethan arrived shortly after. He quickly got down from the car and asked, "Adeline, what's wrong?" Seeing Ethan, Adeline said in a hurry, "Ethan, come over here and have a look at him." "Help me to get him into the car. I'll quickly check on him inside," Ethan urged. Adeline lifted Alan up. As his entire body was leaning on Adeline, she used her whole energy to support him into the car. She grunted as she helped him to the car, "Why did you stuff yourself with food when you can't even eat that much?" Positioning him nicely into the car seat, Adeline leaned by the car and huffed. She then mumbled again, "Oh my gosh, I'm so tired. Why is he so heavy?" Ethan said to Adeline, "Why don't you go towards the side while I check on him?" Adeline hesitated for a moment before moving to the side. After all, she was a married woman, it was better to stay away from seeing what she shouldn't be seeing. After ensuring that Adeline was a distance away from the
"Ha ha..." "Culver, we just sealed the deal that you won't bully me anymore, remember?" Chloe said outrageously, ignoring Culver's ashen face. "Wow, Chloe, you're a really good actress. I fell hard for your acting skills," Culver said as he clenched his jaws. "Thank you for your compliment, Culver. I also do think the same way about my acting skills. It seems to be getting better," Chloe said with a smile. Culver rubbed the space between his brows and wondered why he even asked Chloe to tag along with him to the office in the first place. "I really did not expect you to have such great acting skills. Do you want me to recommend some film production companies to you?" Culver asked and chuckled. Chloe was slightly taken aback by Culver's kind suggestion, "Are you trying to fool me again?" Chloe was skeptical. "Why would I? I just felt that it would be a pity and a loss if you make acting as your career," Culver replied. An idea suddenly
Adeline blinked open her eyes and took in the familiar surrounding of her room. Her sleek snow-white hands were draped out across the silk duvet comfortably. Adeline felt a little unsettled and guilty that Alan had a stomachache because of the meal that she picked and treated him the night before. Her intention was to see Alan being embarrassed and made a fool out of himself, but she had never expected him to get so sick. As she sat up, Adeline realized that no one came to assault her the previous night. "Was it because things were hectic recently that God had finally taken pity on her?" Adeline wondered. Adeline cheerfully got out of bed. That day would be a great and wonderful day, as she would not need to meet or see Alan anymore in the future. Thinking about it, a smile appeared on Adeline's face. ...... Chloe was awakened by the sounds of the car honks outside. As she opened her eyes, she saw Culver looking down intently on her, with one hand support
Chloe immediately understood the meaning behind Adeline's words. She then smiled and told Adrian, "Adrian, you can always find Lydia as your dance partner. I'm pretty sure she'll be more than willing." As soon as Chloe spoke, Adeline smiled and told Adrian, "We are going out to choose a gown. You can take your time and find a dance partner for yourself!" Picking up the bag on the table, Adeline pulled Chloe along and headed out of the set. As they walked out, Adrian decided to run after them. The corner of his lips curved a little upwards. "Adele, let me tag along. I might be able to give some really good advice or comments on the gowns that both of you are choosing?" Adrian hurriedly walked to his car and opened the doors for them. Seeing Adrian's attitude, Seth wondered if Adrian woke up at the wrong side of his bed today. Although he knew that Adrian liked Adeline, how could he change completely when he saw her? He was essentially a great actor a
Marvin gave a light nod of acknowledgement to Alan as a greeting. "Marvin, will you be going to the afterparty later?" Adrian asked while looking at him. Marvin gave him a glance and replied, "We'll see how time plays out. I'll leave first." Adrian then walked over and sat down on the sofa. Picking up the cup of coffee, he began sipping on it leisurely. "Adeline, what do you think of this dress?" Chloe asked, holding a short dress before her. Adeline took a few dresses and passed them to Chloe as well. She then said, "Why don't you try these out?" "Is there a need to try on so many?" Chloe asked as she took the dresses from Adeline's hand. Adeline chuckled at her and whispered something into her ear. Chloe's face then stiffened a little, "I don't think that's a good idea." "What's there to worry about? Just hurry and try these on!" Adeline pushed Chloe into the fitting room. Adeline turned and saw the three men sitting down at the
"Miss Simpson, she's Cynthia Fisher, a renowned actress and was voted as the best actress of the year last year." Neil said as he pushed up the eyeglasses that were resting at his nose bridge. "Cynthia Fisher..." "Is she, by chance, Lydia's sister?" Adeline asked. Adeline couldn't think of anyone whom she had offended in the entertainment industry. Thus, she assumed that the only way that could possibly explain Cynthia's curt attitude to her was if Cynthia was, in any way, related to Lydia. Neil scratched his head and answered, "I don't know if they're sisters. I just know that they're really close." "I see, thanks!" Adeline responded. Adeline walked over to where Chloe was and sat down next to her. Then, she saw Chloe's face was flushed red. "Chloe, are you drunk?" Adeline frowned and looked at her. Chloe's face would immediately flush red whenever she drank alcohol. After drinking the punch, though Chloe was still very much sober,
