"In my suit pocket. Take it by yourself." A man's magnetic voice, unique to the bone, began.
This sentence made Betty overjoyed. Oh my god! She had finally found it. If she hadn't found it, then she would really die.
However, Betty did not know that her dress had been torn into the shape of a fishtail. Just now, when she had turned around, her dress had wrapped itself around the heel of her high shoe. Now, because she had lost the gem and her head was burning with the presence of this man, she did not know that her danger had already been planted.
As she turned to the sofa to get his suit.
"Ah..." Betty let out another ineffable scream of fear. Her legs were wrapped up, and her entire body was twisted into a twist as she fell down to the ground.
Upon seeing this, the man who was originally two meters behind her immediately took a step forward and stretched out his arm. Betty was so frightened that she shrieked twice, while her waist was completely
"Ms. Bates, what's the matter?""Well, I'd like to know the name of the guest who lives in Lounge 1034. Who is he?""Excuse us for not revealing it, sorry.""It really is very important to me. I lost something and it was picked up by him. I really need to know who he is. I beg you." Betty clasped her hands together and pleaded."Sorry, we have always kept our customer's identity a secret, so we can't help you." The manager was determined.Betty could only return to the hall. She looked a little dispirited, as she was exhausted tonight."Betty, how is it? Have you found out who that man is?"Betty shook her head, "The people here are all mysterious and unwilling to tell me, it seems like I can only compensate sponsors for their losses."As expected, the moment they got on the protective car, hearing that the biggest diamond was lost, the entire car's people were so shocked that their eyes fell off, and Lola was so angry that she
Roderick picked up his phone and immediately found his good friend Bryson's number, and dialed it."Hello, Roderick, it's so late. Is there anything you want to ask me?" Bryson's voice came over."Bryson, do me a favor and help me find out who the guest is who is staying at the International Faddish Center's room 1034 tonight.""Why are you asking about this?""It is said that some of my son's mother's best friend dropped something. It is said that it was picked up by the guest in this room. I would like to know who picked it up.""There's no need to check, I know who it is." Bryson said in a very confident voice."Oh! Who is it?""It's me!""What? Did you pick up the girl's things?""I've picked it up and I'm not going to return it.""Oh!" What happened?" Roderick understood Bryson. Bryson's personality was usually gentle, and he had done a good job with a charitable cause. How could he not return the favor?
Victoria bit her lips, "Can you change another method!?"Roderick smiled, and suddenly, his big body stood up from the sofa, he still held onto his arm, and walked towards Victoria step by step.This man was a dangerous being tonight, a monster that could eat humans at any time. Victoria was immediately scared and took two steps back, "You ... Speak properly when you speak, my ears are still ringing!"However, the corner of the man's mouth raised into a disturbing sneer, and took one step at a time, forcing her to the French window. Victoria saw that she could not retreat any further, so she anxiously reached out to stop him, "Roderick, if you have something to say, say it nicely, don't do this."Roderick's arms, which were wrapped around her, immediately supported her, trapping her between the glass window and his chest. He leaned in towards Victoria with a smile on his face, "You just said, there's another method?""Yes! Let's change it! For exam
Betty forced herself to sleep, and then at six in the morning, she would go to Bryson's doorstep and wait for him. This time, losing the money to buy jewelry could solve the problem, but, whoever leaked this matter would be a huge blow to her reputation.Who would write that she had stolen it again? The image that she had painstakingly created over the years was about to collapse. So, in order to solve her problem, she had to take the gem back. At most, she could compensate some repair costs.Betty lied on her bed, wishing that she could arrive soon tomorrow.Betty was unable to sleep at all until around three o'clock, and just as she was about to fall asleep at six o'clock, the alarm clock chimed and woke her up. She reached out to press the button on the clock, intending to turn her body and continue sleeping.She patted her forehead. Luckily, she didn't oversleep. Betty quickly got off the bed to wash up, put on a pair of casual jeans and a white T-shi
"Then... Then I shall take my leave, Mr. Mcintosh, see you later." Betty was too embarrassed to stay.Then, she suddenly thought of something and turned her head, "Mr. Mcintosh, do you need to leave me your phone number?" It's convenient to contact me?"The man took a sip of his coffee gracefully. "No need."Betty felt her ears heating up. Could it be that this man was mistaken about the method she used to get his contact number? She quickly said, "Oh! Alright! Then I'll leave first. Goodbye."After she finished speaking, Betty hurriedly escaped from the man's home. To her, this place was filled with an oppressive aura, so she did not want to stay here.Betty drove to her manager's company and told Lola about that she has found the gem. Her manager was relieved that the trouble with Betty had been solved.The consequence of this trouble was that she owed the man a meal. Betty began to wonder, when would he have time?Maybe he didn't e
Her two straight and slender legs were exceptionally eye-catching. Overall, Victoria's back was full marks.Roderick resisted the urge to hug her from the back. He thought that it would definitely feel good if he hugged her to his chest.Victoria turned around and washed her hands. She was suddenly startled by the man leaning on the door.The next second, she became angry, "Can you make a sound? Don't you know that people are scary and will scare people to death?""If you died, I'll be responsible for the funeral." Roderick teased her with a smile.Victoria almost threw the spatula in her hands at him, "Disappeared."Roderick's smile became even more enchanting. He suddenly thought of something and walked towards her piano. He flipped open the music table on top of her and started playing the piano.No matter what this man did, he was always outstanding. Even if Roderick was unfamiliar with the piano, he was able to quickly recover hi
"Okay, I said the wrong thing, okay? Mr. Arnold?" Victoria said with a helpless expression."Is that an apology? Forget it, just give me a kiss, then I'll leave." Roderick did not plan to leave without reaping any benefits.Victoria could only describe her feelings toward this man as extremely speechless. She had almost forgotten how she had offended him.Thinking about it carefully, she had already cooked a good meal for him, so how could she possibly have offended him?"Why should I kiss you?""If you don't want to kiss me, that's fine! I'll sleep on your bed tonight, and you can sleep on the sofa." Roderick's detestable threat."No, you can't stay in my house." And this man is dangerous."Why not? We've even done the most intimate things, including our son. Why are you still being so conservative? As long as you open your mouth, there's nothing I can't do for you." Roderick's hint was extremely strong.How could Victoria not
Roderick revealed his white teeth that were as neat as ice and said, "Yes."The next step was a fluent, but on the road, Victoria kept hearing magnetic male voices guiding her.They finally arrived at a rich man's villa. This place was filled with large villas, and the surrounding gardens were so spacious that they could be used as a garden. The wealth of the Arnold family was already known to the world.Just as the car drove in, they saw a beautiful girl carrying Franklin and running over. Victoria got off the car and looked at this cute and beautiful girl. She must be Roderick's sister."Mummy..." Franklin immediately embraced her waist, revealing a small face that was so small that even the teeth could not be seen.It had been two days since Victoria last saw her son, and she really missed him. She crouched down and hugged his son, while a clear female voice called out to her, "Sister-in-law."Victoria was immediately shocked, she laughed
When Victoria knocked on the door but to no avail, she decided to just stop. She had to take care of these photos anyway, it didn't matter who took care of them.Even if he wanted to, she would let him handle it!She didn't sleep well last night, so she decided to take a shower before going to bed.Victoria showered, washed and blew her hair. An hour passed just like that, and she was currently leaning on the balcony, enjoying the night scene.Suddenly, the sound of a door opening could be heard behind her. She was startled for a moment. She turned around and saw a man with a gloomy face walking towards her. She frowned slightly. "Who dares to provoke him again?""Have you dealt with the photos?" Victoria asked, if he did not deal with it, she could take it back and deal with them herself.When Roderick's slender body stepped onto the balcony, Victoria's nerves tensed up. In the next second, the man pulled her into her embrace, with one hand
The man on the other side cut his steak gracefully. Looking at how hard she was using her strength, he really didn't know what this woman was thinking all day.However, there was one thing that he was sure of. This woman definitely did not think of him all day long.After eating, Victoria saw that it was still early, so she turned to the man beside him and said, "You don't have to send me back, you can go back to your home! I can stop the taxi.""How can I let you go back so late? What happened to you that I could explain to my son?" As Roderick said this, he domineeringly grabbed her wrist and walked towards his car.Victoria thought, even if he was that happy to see her off, she would not be so unreasonable. She sat in his car, just in time, they were not far from her house, it only took twenty minutes to get there.Victoria got off the carriage and carried her chest from the back. Just as she was about to wave goodbye to the man with the Driver,
She no longer wanted to eat here. Grace always did these kinds of actions, making her feel depressed, and thus, she was not in the mood to eat.And she thought, Roderick definitely did not want to eat this meal, so she could only say to him, "Alright! Then let's find an excuse to leave!"Roderick heard her softening voice, just now, he was controlled by jealousy and had treated her roughly, but in his heart he was a little regretful, he pulled her and said towards the direction of the hall, "An excuse for me."In the hall, Austin was currently taking the painting that Desmond handed to him. He held the painting and stopped moving, and did not leave, as if he was waiting to see Victoria and leave.And at this time, outside the door, Victoria and Roderick's figures walked in at the same time. Roderick was still handing her with ten fingers tightly.Seated on the sofa, Kaylin looked at their intimate expressions, and felt so jealous that she was about
After waiting for a while, Grace scolded, "You clumsy oaf! What's wrong with you? I just told you to be careful. How could you pour them out? You can leave now. Go back to the kitchen!"The servant quickly left after hearing what Grace said, and the photos that were scattered on the table continued to spill all over. Desmond was also very vexed, he turned to Grace and said, "Hurry up and tell them to keep the photos.""Let me do it!" After Victoria finished speaking, she stood up and folded the photos. She did not want the photos to fall into Grace's hands again.As Victoria tidied up, Grace and Kaylin looked at each other, and noticed the undisguised jealousy in Roderick's eyes, as well as his expressionless face.After Victoria finished packing, she put the chest aside. When she left, she needed to take it with her.At this moment, the servant came over. "Madam, there's someone ringing the doorbell."Grace cast a sidelong glance at her, "T
After Kaylin finished pouring the tea, she raised her head, only to see Roderick's gaze on her, a look of jealousy and unwillingness sweeping across her heart. She had obviously dressed so beautifully tonight, yet Roderick's eyes did not land on her.She ran into the kitchen, Grace looked at her, Kaylin bit her lips, and her expression clearly showed her disappointment."Mom, what should we do? He didn't even look at me." Kaylin bit her lips and complained.A flash of ruthlessness appeared in Grace's eyes. Did Roderick really like Victoria that much? Did he know her past? In the past, when she was fell in love with Austin. She remembered the last time she cleaned up her room, she had even gotten some pictures of her, and they were all intimate photos of her with Austin.Looks like she ought to let Roderick admire it properly as well.She narrowed her eyes and thought for a while, then came up with an idea. She turned to the maid who was washing the
The Marquez Mansion was right in front of the high-end residential area, so Victoria's car was driving in and went straight to the direction of the huge villa. When she arrived at the gate of the Marquez Mansion, Victoria did not drive in, and stopped right beside.Roderick followed her out of the car, and went to the door and pressed the doorbell.Roderick frowned, did this woman not have any status in this family? There was no key or code.Actually, Victoria was too lazy to take it, because other than her father being at home, she would always come back. Normally, she wouldn't even want to return to this home.She never thought that the one who would open the door from the hall would shockingly be the sexy and fashionable Kaylin. Victoria secretly mocked, thinking that the clothes Kaylin wore today, was for the man beside her to see!"Sis, Mr. Arnold, you're here, come in!" Kaylin displayed warmth, and her smile was beautiful and charming.
Although the girl was rejected, she turned around and watched him leave with longing eyes, leaving behind regret in her heart.When Roderick walked out of the airport, he saw that in the long queue, there was a very eye-catching white car.Victoria also saw him. She pressed open the door, and Roderick opened the door and sat down.When Victoria saw the trace of tiredness between his brows, she couldn't help but ask out of concern, "Do you want me to send you back to rest?"Roderick looked at her sideways, and stubbornly said, "No, I want to go to your house!"Victoria did not speak anymore, the car went into the side drive and started running along the wide airport road. Roderick leaned his hands on his chest, his expression relaxed, and his mouth raised up involuntarily.The Marquez Mansion, around four thirty.Desmond called Grace, who was playing mahjong outside, to let her go home, saying that Victoria would come back to eat lunch
Morning, half past seven.Victoria's biological clock woke her up on time. Her first thought was to see if her son had woken up, but another thought immediately popped up in her mind. Didn't her son get sent abroad yesterday?She immediately relaxed her body and stretched, then continued to sleep on her palm. Without her son by her side, she was too lazy to be like a cat, how comfortable she was.Victoria had been watching Betty's fans fight from the start. When she saw it was 11: 30 in the afternoon, she only woke up when she was really hungry.First, she soaked a cup of milk and stood on the balcony, enjoying the distant scenery of the high-rise buildings. A cool breeze blew.Roderick's villa occupied an extremely rich and natural resource. Leaning against the mountain ridge, the air was fresh and the environment was elegant, causing people to definitely have a wonderful feeling of being able to enjoy it.Victoria casually made some food f
Betty returned to the hotel in a daze. After thinking about it, she could only think of one person, and that was Bryson.Why did this man want to help her? Where did he get the ability to get the chief designer to give her entire line of clothes? That was the latest major investment coveted by many celebrities!This fashion week would be maintained for a week, so it was still very lively here. There were different shows for each day, but for Betty's hotel reception, she received a week's worth of admission cards. She could go to the red carpet anytime, or attend any fashion show.At the same time, among the cards, there was a special invitation to a dinner party at the end of Fashion Week. It was a gathering of celebrities, a lavish feast that attracted the attention of the entire world.Half an hour after Betty received the card, Bryson called. He only said one sentence, "During that banquet, you will be my female companion and attend. When the time come
