"Hum! Thank you!" Victoria extended her hand to receive it while Maxim covered the piano after seeing her drink a few mouthfuls of water. He suddenly asked with interest, "Can I play a song with you?"
Victoria faced her idol's request. How could she refuse? Moreover, she was also interested. She nodded and said, "Sure!"
The two of them played together perfectly. A staff member who was fiddling with his equipment not too far away, and he immediately took out his phone and secretly recorded the scene of them dual playing. The two of them were very close, playing the piano, and their eyes met affectionately.
Anyone who didn't understand would feel that they were a couple, and this staff member planned to sell the video to the media after the concert ended. At that time, he would definitely be able to make a windfall.
After the song, Maxim admired Victoria even more. He originally had nothing to do, so he just sat beside her and chatted with her about matters
"Wow! I'm coming in, hurry up, let's go find a seat, it's about to start."Donald shook his head. There was nothing he could do about this impatient little sister of his. But Roderick thought her was adorable, because he had doted on his sister since she was young. Instead, he didn't care about his little brother at all.The big hall was already packed with fans, almost filling up the seats.At the backstage, the staff was also working hard on their heartstrings. Victoria first had the accompaniment of a song, and at this moment, she had already put on makeup on stage. She wore a long, white dress that dragged the floor, and her long hair was naturally scattered behind her head.Because they would interact on the stage this time, Victoria's piano wasn't located in the corner, but in the middle. As a result, she had to be exposed in the middle of the camera, and Victoria had practiced the piano since she was young, so her stage experience was quite good.
Donald looked directly at his big brother. He looked at him with the eyes of a man and smiled. "It might be possible."Cassie immediately nodded happily.After the first song ended, as Mina and the fans interacted, Victoria's piano began to spin down. Victoria politely bowed in the direction of the fans, thanked them, and then disappeared from the stage.Victoria, who had just gotten off the elevator, was immediately brought a bunch of flowers from Maxim who knows where to get and give them to her. Then, before she could react, he reached out and hugged her. Victoria was shocked, then she smiled and said “ thanks “."Great." Maxim really couldn't bear to let go of her.Coincidentally, the staff member with a goal was recording the scene.Next, Victoria needed to change into a set of hot red evening clothes. This was a slightly sexy set, and a player like her really didn't need to care too much. As long as she didn't be erotic too
Below the stage, Kaylin was so angry that she was about to go crazy. She also felt that what Victoria dressed like this was to attract Austin's attention. As expected, her half-sister was maliciously wanting to steal Austin from her side! Yet she pretended to be so innocent on the surface. Deep in her heart, she really wanted to snatch Austin away.After the hot love song ended, when Victoria was thanking on the stage, she still clutched her chest with both hands and gracefully retreated from the stage with a bow.After Victoria arrived backstage, she could have a good rest. In order to prevent her from being too tired, Mina had arranged the songs that she needed to play in advance. She could now have a good rest for twenty minutes and put on makeup to prepare for her last accompaniment tonight.Coincidentally, her last accompaniment was a song which Mina and Maxim were singing together. Maxim accompanied her in the dressing room, and the makeup artist didn't ne
After the two of them had sung together in deep love, Maxim walked over to Victoria, who was playing the piano, singing in a deep and enchanting voice. At the same time, Maxim also looked at her with a kind of benevolent smile, and Maxim placed the flowers on the shelf next to Victoria's piano, passing the flowers to her.Naturally, the photographer wouldn't miss such a good show. He captured all of the affectionate gazes of Maxim staring at Victoria perfectly. At the same time, when she received the flowers, the gentle look of laughter in Victoria's eyes also caught.In that instant, everyone below the stage clearly saw one thing, Maxim was giving his love to this goddess who played the piano.However, even though the fans were heartbroken, they all knew that tonight's Victoria was so beautiful, so celestial, and so enchanting.The fans also hoped for their idol to get a happy relationship, as if this girl really was worthy of him.However, there
Seeing that she was truly drinking the water, Roderick didn't let go of her hand. He put the cup down and continued to talk with her. "Was that man interested in you just now?" he asked.When Victoria heard this, she knew what his words were meant to. She frowned and muttered angrily, "Does it have anything to do with you?"Hearing her answer, Roderick snorted coldly. "You already have a baby. Tell me, do you think it have anything to do with me?"Victoria was about to faint. She bit her lips and said, "I do have a son, but I'm not your wife. Why do you care so much?"Roderick's aura of scorching heat sprinkled over her ears. "I just want to interfere. What do you think?"Victoria was in so much pain that her eyebrows furrowed tightly. She bit her lips and wanted to take her hand away from his hand, but she had no choice. The man held her too hard, so she had no choice but to endure the pain.However, Roderick didn't continue to pinch her. V
With a stuffy groan, his handsome body stiffened. Meanwhile, Victoria acted as if he were a blanket, tightly pressing her soft body into the man's embrace, as if she was actively trying to let him feel her warmth.The man lowered his head and looked at the girl in his embrace. Half of his clean face had a faint blush on it.Roderick couldn't help but twitch his eyebrows. The corners of his mouth lifted into a wicked smile as he felt the woman's enthusiasm.Beside him, the little guy had been sleeping obediently. His little face was flushed with sweat.Probably because he had the little fellow by his side! Even though this woman was so close to him, Roderick did his best to suppress his wild thoughts about her.However, if he wanted to sleep, then so be it. He didn't know how he was going to extinguish the fire in his body.If this woman continued to hug him like this, he would not be able to sleep until daybreak.Early morning.
It was better to spend Saturday with him, and she was nervous for a while in preparation for the concert, so they could take a walk togetherVictoria blew her waist-length hair dry before she received a call from Betty, who couldn't stop praising her. Then Betty told her the good news that she would be back on Wednesday.After conversing with her for a while, Victoria changed into a new set of sports clothes and entered Roderick's house.Pushing open the door to his room, she walked in. Sure enough, the little guy was already awake."Mommy, you're up, dad and I are going out to eat breakfast." The little guy ran to her side and wrapped his short arms around her waist."Hum!" That's what I thought too. Let's go!" Victoria stroked his small head.Roderick had already changed into a set of clothes. He wore a dark shirt with well-cut trousers, and his posture was elegant and domineering. Thinking back to last night and his awkwardness, Victoria
"Okay! I just came back from accompanying my son. I'll come over after I change the clothes. "Victoria replied with a smile."Hum! I'm waiting for you!" Mina hung up the phone after she finished speaking.To Victoria, Mina was already an amiable big sister, so she really liked being close to her.Victoria immediately returned to her room. She first went to the bathroom to take a shower and dry her hair. After that, she put on a bit of light makeup. There was a fashionable air around her clear face.Victoria was wearing a bath towel and was choosing clothes in the wardrobe. Tonight, it was a celebratory feast. If she wore it too casually, it would seem that she didn't care about Mina at all.Victoria found a slightly sexy gray sequined dress. Previously, she had bought it because it was too beautiful, but because she was with her son every day, she didn't have the chance to wear it.Tonight, it was obviously going to be useful.After V
"Test him? Why?" Victoria did not understand.Roderick also understood that she was a small fry in the business world. He patted her shoulder and said, "I'll tell you about it when we get into the car."After getting into Roderick's car, with the windows tightly closed, Roderick turned to Victoria, who was still waiting for his reply."I suspect that the testament in Yves's hands, you do not get fifty percent of the Marquez Group's shares!" Roderick said directly.Victoria couldn't help but gasp, "Why?""I think that when your father was alive, he did not have any last will, but instead the testament was made after his death. And it was the last will that Grace and Yves formed together. If I'm not wrong, you can't even get any share of the Marquez Group!" Roderick had to give her some preventive measures to prepare her heart.Victoria's face immediately turned pale. If the testament were made by her father after his death, wouldn't the Marquez Group have fallen into Grace's hands? Cou
The morning light was exceptionally bright, as if it was a huge golden crack that split the sky, tearing through the gray sky bit by bit, illuminating the land.Victoria opened her eyes. A ray of sunlight had just pierced into her eyes, causing her to quickly close her eyes, and for the past few days, she had been crying too much, causing her eyes to be dry and sensitive. At this time, a large palm covered her eyelashes in an extremely considerate manner, preventing the sunlight from shining into her eyes again.On Roderick's warm palm, he could feel her long eyelashes blink, and lightly brush the skin on his palm as if it were made of feathers. This made the corner of his sexy mouth hooked up.He pulled up a thin layer of curtains, blocking out the sun and leaving the room in a warm room.Victoria gently blinked her eyes, and after two more blinks, her eyes became clear and bright, as though they were twinkling in stars. Roderick really loved her eyes, when she cried, it made people'
Bryson looked at her and sneered, "It's only now that you know to guard against me, don't you think it's too late?"Betty stared at him, and before long, her pretty face turned pale, "You can't do this, bastard!""Why? Don't you like a bastard?" Bryson continued to refute."You ... To me, I would never like a bastard. I like a gentleman." Betty retorted in an even worse tone.Bryson squinted, in the dark carriage, his eyes were still as sharp as ever, "So, you have a man you like?"Theobald's face appeared in Betty's mind, she thought, "I don't like him, I just admire him! Because he really fits her bill."When she raised her eyebrows she immediately blurted out, "Yes!"Bryson's face looked especially tense and unsightly under the dim blue light. He never thought that this woman would actually have a man he liked."Who is he?""There's no need to tell you!" Betty smirked.Bryson suddenly stepped on the brakes, causing Betty's body to fiercely lean forward. She immediately turned her h
Roderick station is in mourning hall who get attention greatly, have a few come to the business circles personage, come over at once and he dozen a greeting.There were a few business people who came to greet him as a form of courtesy to the CEO of the Arnold Group. Roderick bowed in return, and he stood there, just to accompany Victoria.Austin and his father had arrived at the very last moment, and Austin felt sorry for her.She had Roderick, who never left her side, accompanying her father.Grace sobbed uncontrollably under the condolences of some business partners several times. This caused Victoria to feel extremely disgusted, as her father did not need her to cry like this.After releasing a string of firecrackers in the afternoon, Kaylin took Desmond's portrait and carried his ashes to a black carriage to be buried. Victoria had not been by Desmond's side for many years already, so she did not even know where the tomb he bought was.Roderick sat on the car with Bryson.When the
In the evening, Roderick and Victoria returned together. Roderick did not tell Victoria about the lawyer because she had borne enough pain now.That night, Victoria did not let Betty come over again to take care of her because Betty was also tired last night.That night, after Roderick finished showering, he came to her room wearing a set of casual pajamas. At this time, Victoria did not refuse to accompany him at all.Lightly caressed her brows and eyes a few times, wanting to help her calm down. He also lightly patted her shoulders to coax her to enter an even deeper sleep.Early in the morning, when Betty was still sleeping, a phone call woke her up. She picked it up to see that it was again Lola, and her head was spinning. She really wasn't in the mood to go."Hello, Sister Lola, didn't I say I wanted you to help me put it off?""There's no need to push it now. You can rest for a few more days. The official announcement just now said that this episode would be delayed for another
"Then why did he go to the hospital that day? Did he faint in his office?""No, when we went to the hospital that day, it was your father who decided to go. He probably wanted to know how bad his condition was as well! That afternoon, he signed too many documents, sat for too long, and he was a little dizzy when he stood up. Only then did he get a little worried, and said that he was going to the hospital for an examination.""In other words, before my father went to the hospital, his condition was still considered stable!" Victoria asked carefully."No! There have been signs of a rebound in the company's performance recently. Mr. Marquez was even relieved and didn't get any work stimulation. I have always been by his side.""Then there's nothing wrong with his medicine, right?""The medicine is fine, every time I pour it for him, it's always those pills the doctor gave him.""It's those pills that Doctor Clare prescribed.""And then? Did you see my father faint that afternoon?""No!
Inside the master bedroom, Roderick was also not asleep. He sat in front of the French window, and looked up at the stars in the night sky. His handsome face had been shrouded in a layer of mysterious shadow.He agreed with Victoria that Desmond must have been doing his best to say something before he died. As he pointed his hand to Grace, it was sure that Grace was related to Desmond's death.If he wanted to resolve the knot in Victoria's heart, he must investigate this matter clearly as soon as possible and give Desmond justice.He called Carson. Although it was early in the morning, Carson quickly picked it up. "Hello, Mr. Arnold, did something happen?""Tomorrow morning, contact the law firm of the Marquez Group for me. Tell them that I want to cooperate with them." Roderick ordered.Carson did not waste much time, he directly answered, "Okay! I'll ask the person in charge to come and see you tomorrow morning."After hanging up the phone, the corner of Roderick's mouth curled up i
An hour later, Roderick went upstairs and gently knocked on Victoria's room. The sadness on Victoria's face was still very obvious, but it seemed that her emotions had stabilized. Betty looked at her with eyes filled with sadness and grievance."Come down!" Roderick said to them."Alright, we'll be right down." Betty replied.Victoria's eyes were red and swollen from crying, she only raised them slightly, not looking at Roderick as Roderick gently closed the door.Betty got up and went into the bathroom, bringing a warm towel out. She gently lifted Victoria's face, and used a towel to wipe the tears off her face. Victoria closed her eyes, her eyes were red and swollen, her face was pale, and she looked extremely haggard."Victoria, we can secretly investigate your father's death, but now, you have to think about your own body! Franklin needs you." Betty explained to her.Victoria and Betty had chatted for an hour, she had vented her sorrow. She hated Grace, and she felt unworthy for h
Along the way back to Roderick's villa, Victoria continued to be silent, and it was unknown what she was thinking. When they arrived, the first thing Roderick wanted to do was to contact his good friend Bryson, and then ask him to contact Betty, so that she could console and comfort Victoria.As a close friend, she definitely knew how to let Victoria vent the grief in her heart.Roderick stood outside the courtyard and called Bryson."Hey! Roderick, you've returned back?" Bryson asked directly.He would have known that Roderick was abroad, but it was not because Roderick disclosed it to him, but because he got it from his brother Lennon. Because his brother was concerned about his female student, Cassie."Yes! We returned home. Today Victoria's father passed away, and do you have Betty's number? Take her over to comfort Victoria. She's very sad right now." Roderick's voice was somewhat heavy and hoarse.Bryson's tone became more serious, "I have her number, I'll contact her right now
