Once the phone connected, a soft and tender voice came through it. “Mommy, where are you? I can’t find you, mommy…”The person on the other end seemed to have just woken up, as the voice sounded dopey and childlike.Mommy? Weston was shocked. This woman actually has a child?Was she already married with kids?It was unlikely, though. If she were married, she would not visit sleazy places like this at night, would she? She would also not let herself be booked for a night of fun by a mobster for a few thousand dollars.Ridiculous!“Mommy? Mommy, are you there?” The silence made the kid scared, and his voice hinted to it.“Mommy, are you there? Please answer me.”He grimaced. Glancing at the woman soundly asleep in the bed, he replied coolly, “Your mommy is with me.”His deep and frigid voice sounded mature and regal, yet it still terrified Youyou.The little fellow questioned in a guarded voice, “Who are you?!”An alert mind was the child’s special trait.Weston prodded his chin and pond
It was already two o’clock in the afternoon when Yuna’s eyes flew open.She opened her sleepy and fatigued eyes and saw the lavishly decorated suite. She dazedly tried to recall what she was doing there, but her mind was a blank.She remained perplexed and could not recognize the sight of the previous night’s debauchery before her.The side effects of the drug wiped her recollection of last night’s events. She could only vaguely remember being forced to drink half a glass of liquor and falling unconscious.She could not recall anything after that.Her body was tired and dehydrated, yet she failed to draw a logical guess about last night’s events from that.Why was she lying naked in bed here?She was filled with deep fear and shock!She was so beaten up after last night’s ferocious lovemaking.She was unaware of this, though. She moved to get up and felt an ache between her legs.Sharp pain coursed through her.Her heart went boom ; this feeling was not new to her.This was obviously a
The man smiled ever so slightly and forced her to peer deeper into his eyes by holding her chin.His slender fingers roughly caressed her pale lips.Yuna yelped out in pain and he grinned, his thin lips sketching out into a sexy arc.He wore a stylish black shirt and long pants. The top shirt’s button was undone, providing a glimpse of his seductive form.His tall and broad frame made the spacious car look small.His innate noble aura subdued the atmosphere in the car.She carefully checked him out, and what she saw made her breath catch.Was he… really her employer six years ago?She was blindfolded at that time, so she did not have any impression of him. Being able to see him now, he was unexpectedly younger, more handsome, and more elegant than what she had imagined him to be!Nonetheless, his devilish look and seductive yet ponderous smile made her uneasy!Weston was interested by the colorful emotions she displayed one after another— the unease, fear, and surprise on her face.Sh
“200 million? Are you worth that much?”“You asked me how much I want and said you can afford it, yet you hesitate when I asked for 200 million.”She tore the check before his eyes.His face darkened.With a burst of courage, she grabbed his chiseled chin, stared into his arrogantly handsome face, and snorted. “Men are cheap. Instead of their own, they splurge on other women. Director, don’t you know that you can’t buy love with money?”“How much does your love cost?” he snapped back, “Is it worth 200 million?” She was truly an interesting woman to him.She threw pieces of the torn check to his face.“True love is priceless,” she answered. Pausing for a bit, she pointed a finger resolutely to his chest. “If you really want it… then use this to exchange for it!”He was stunned for a moment. She took this chance to push him away, open the car door, and jump off the speeding extended Bentley!Fortunately, the extended Bentley was close to a traffic light and was not moving fast.She got
He lowered his eyes to look at the hand clutching him. His lips frowned and his thick lashes drooped, perfectly hiding any playfulness in his eyes.“Grandpa, is this how you’ve trained your staff?” Youyou coldly regarded the chauffeur in his peripheral view and asked indifferently, “Ordering your staff to trouble a child, aren’t you afraid of losing your dignity?”The elderly man gazed profoundly at him for a while before spinning his head around and waved his hand at the chauffeur. “Hai, don’t be disrespectful!”The chauffeur realized his intention with that gesture and promptly retracted his hand.Youyou tidied up his sleeve, which got crumpled by the chauffeur’s hold just then, and turned to leave.The elderly man watched the child’s departing figure in a trance. He knitted his brows and pursed his lips.“Sir…”“Hai, do whatever you can to find out about that child’s identity and background!” The elderly man ordered w
Nasi received the much coveted invitation letter in the afternoon.At the same time, she received a warning call from Li qiang.He sounded furious when she picked up his call.“Nasi , you are such a b*tch! Do you know who the hell you’ve messed with? You got me in a big trouble!”She was baffled. “Brother Qiang, what do you mean?”“Your sister may be young and harmless, but she’s got the backing of someone powerful! I didn’t get to touch her, yet I almost lost an arm. In the end, I got blacklisted by the most powerful man in the capital and almost lost my life…”She could not make sense of what he was saying. “Brother Qiang, what do you mean? I don’t understand!”“You don’t get it?!” He boiled and exclaimed, “Let me explain again; your sister has a powerful man backing her. As for the identity of this powerful man, it is not for someone lowly like you to know!”She was baffled but quickly broke into a smile. “Br
Youyou crossed him arm and sulked as they took a taxi home. Yuna saw her son’s sullen face and gave both of his rosy cheeks a pinch.“Youyou, what happened? Why do you look so sad?”He gave a snort. “Mommy, they are bullying you. I dislike them! I dislike grandma!”She knew that Youyou could not bear to see her suffer.Although this child appeared gentle and sweet before her, she knew deep down that he was different from other children. Besides being a smart kid, his tough childhood made him have the maturity not fit for his young age. He was an obedient and understanding child.She caressed his head lovingly. “Don’t mind them.”His small hands reached up and cupped his mother’s face. Youyou looked at her with loving tenderness. “As long as mommy is happy, I am willing to do anything.”Once they reached home, the manager called and instructed her to attend an event at Crowne Hotel.She hurried over. The hotel was grand and luxurious.She was originally intending to take a nap at home
What time should I report for work tomorrow?” she smilingly asked as she followed behind him.“You… You really want to be my assistant?” Guy was amused. “It’s a tough job. My assistant has to handle my PR affairs, needs to fend off the paparazzi, and, even worse, has to deal with difficult situations like today. Can you manage?”Only then did she realize how difficult a celebrity assistant’s job was.“But you asked me if I’m willing to be your assistant…”“I did that to save you,” he replied matter-of-factly.“Miss Yuna, I’ve come to pick you up,” Mr.Hanlin said.“Who are you?”Li Hanlin’s smile did not falter. He came closer to her and whispered, “Master Yun is currently waiting in the car for you.”Master Yun… Youyou?!Her facial expression looked panicky and she quickly looked in the direction of the Bentley. Seeing Youyou leaning on the car window ledge, she broke into a sweet smile and waved her ha
