To their astonishment, Lillian was being embraced by a stocky elderly man, who was getting handsy with her.Shirley and Tina exchanged looks.Lillian's taste seemed to have taken a nosedive pretty quickly.Keith's looks were difficult to surpass, so it wasn't surprising that Lillian had shifted her attention to him. Who could resist Keith's wealth, power, status, and good looks?Later, she got involved with Albert, which was somewhat understandable.Despite being a bit of a playboy, Albert had inherited good looks and physique from the Nelson family, so he was at least somewhat handsome.But how to explain this balding old man with an ugly look?With a little nudging from the man, Lillian found herself in his arms, coquettishly calling, "Mr. Flores, don't be in such a hurry! This is the dressing room! Someone will come! Wait until tonight..."As Lillian's words drifted out in fits and starts, Shirley and Tina blinked, and Tina decided not to miss this opportunity, pulling out her phon
Upon hearing Lillian was coming, Shirley instinctively leaned towards Keith, scanning the surroundings for Lillian.Shirley didn't notice that Keith hadn't even bothered to look for Lillian but was instead gazing at her, his eyes filled with a mesmerizing gleam, fixated on her cheek.Despite searching for a while, Shirley didn't spot Lillian's figure.When she inadvertently looked up, her gaze instantly locked with those captivating eyes, rendering her unable to move.Shirley's eyelashes fluttered rapidly.She wanted to look away, but it was so difficult.Her body seemed frozen in place, as if under a spell, unable to move.She could only watch as that familiar and handsome face inched closer bit by bit.Shirley couldn't help but swallow nervously, realizing that even swallowing saliva was a challenging task in the presence of Keith."You... you..." Shirley couldn't even get the words out. Keith's handsome face descended even closer.Shirley wanted to step back, but her body seemed to
Feeling the slight vibration of the car, Shirley slowly opened her eyes in a daze.Opening her eyes, Shirley saw the pitch-black night."Awake?" Keith drove slowly to catch up with Lillian's car and whispered to Shirley, "Lillian has appeared."Upon hearing that Lillian had arrived, Shirley instantly perked up, sitting up straight and adjusting her seat before noticing the blanket on her body.Feeling the intricately crafted blanket in her hands, Shirley naturally knew who had covered her.However, now wasn't the time to be sentimental with him, as Shirley had already spotted Lillian's car in front of them.It was indeed Lillian's car, as Shirley could see it was the one she used on set."Where is she going?" Shirley couldn't help but ask."Hmm, take a guess?" Keith seemed to be in a good mood.Shirley glanced at Keith and cooperatively said, "Is she going to meet Mr. Flores?""Lillian isn't that foolish," Keith replied nonchalantly. "And Mr. Flores isn't that careless either.""What
Lillian seemed to have anticipated Mr. Flores would ask this, and she answered in a coquettish tone, "Mr. Flores, could I ask to buy your stocks if I didn't have money? You know, I've always wanted to do something serious; acting is just a hobby of mine. I eventually plan to do something legitimate. My parents were good friends with the elders of the Nelson family, and even though my parents' business failed, they left me some money. I don't want to squander that money, so I want to do something meaningful."Of course, Mr. Flores wasn't easily fooled by Lillian; he retorted, "With so many publicly traded companies, why did you specifically target the Nelson Family Group? Even if your parents have good relations with the Nelson Family Group, is that enough reason for you to urgently acquire Nelson Family Group's stocks?"Lillian replied with a twinkle in her eye, "Mr. Flores, why would I have any ill intentions? While there are many companies out there, none can match the strength of t
Keith came back to the study, and Tony hooked up the signal to the study.After Keith and Shirley left, a lot of interesting things happened as expected.Mr. Flores's eyes flickered a hint of light and said, "How about this, since you also like me, I will buy you a house outside, give you one million every month, and you just need to be happy. Making money is hard work, let me do it."Lillian heard Mr. Flores talking nonsense, got anxious, sat up from the bed, and turned to look at Mr. Flores."Mr. Flores, what do you mean? Didn't we agree that you will sell me the shares under your name as long as I'm here to accompany you? Besides, I'm buying, not asking." Lillian was too anxious and her tone became unfriendly.She was running out of time and couldn't afford any more changes.Mr. Flores's eyes shimmered, remembered the person who warned him, and seeing Lillian's expression, he understood instantly.Mr. Flores's face darkened, he stood up from the bed, put on a yukata, signed a check
Mr. Flores suddenly looked up at the person handing him the pen. When he saw the face clearly, his fingers trembled, almost throwing the pen away!This was...one of Keith's assistants.Keith had many assistants—some were public, like Tony and Jim. Of course, there were also some who worked discreetly, like the current assistant in front of him.As a member of the board of directors, Mr. Flores had seen this assistant a few times.This assistant was a formidable figure with blood on his hands. Did his presence mean that Keith already knew everything?Mr. Flores felt like a fish in hot oil, suffering repeatedly.Mr. Flores had an unprecedented sense of regret.He had always thought he was watertight, but little did he know that Keith had long grasped his weaknesses.The assistant gestured for Mr. Flores to look at the document in his hands.His gaze fell, and when he understood the contents, his eyes became increasingly sinister!The assignee of this document was not Lillian, but Keith!
Following Evan's gaze, Shirley turned around and saw Lillian in a white fur coat, wearing a red form-fitting dress underneath.Lillian walked in with a man in his forties on her arm."Lillian changes her man every time she appears," Tina remarked, crossing her arms. "Evan, did you invite her?"Hearing Tina's disdainful tone, Evan quickly replied, "Come on, why would I invite her? She's just a minor character, and doesn't have the qualifications. But the man next to her might be a potential investor tonight. Shirley, do you remember him?"Shirley looked puzzled at Evan, "Why should I remember him?"Evan smirked mischievously, "Because he's Director Alice's ex-husband!""Pfft..." Shirley and Tina both sprayed out the juice in their mouths!Shirley looked incredulous, "No way? Is Director Alice coming tonight as well?"Evan laughed more maliciously, "Yep, Director Alice will be here too! I wonder what it would be like for her to see her ex-husband attending this party with her actresses.
Lillian's words caused the expressions of those around her to subtly change towards Albert.Many people present knew of Albert's background.Despite various disdain towards Mr. Albert, he was still connected to the Nelson family, an entity not to be crossed.Even if Lillian did not like Albert, she dared not openly confront him.Evan, grinning, approached Shirley, "Oh oh, your second brother was hit, as his sister-in-law, are you really going to remain indifferent?""Let's put aside the question of whether I am his sister-in-law, as the host of today's banquet, are you truly going to stay indifferent in the face of such a drama?" Shirley countered Evan.As Evan hesitated about whether to help, a commotion erupted at the entrance.Shirley followed the crowd's gaze. At the villa's entrance, a Rolls-Royce spun elegantly and parked perfectly.A group of well-trained bodyguards formed two rows, the car door opened, and an impeccably dressed figure leisurely got out.Shirley was speechless
