Feeling embarrassed, Kamilia couldn't let it go. She knew Jesse had a wandering eye, and there she was, showing off their affection in front of Eranthe, only to find her man asking for another woman's number.
"Sorry, is that enough?" Kamilia said, clearly dissatisfied.
Jesse quickly tried to smooth things over, "I'll cover all of Miss. Taylor's expenses today as an apology."
Kamilia widened her eyes. After begging him for so long just to buy her mom a bag, he was now offering to cover Eranthe's expenses? What if Eranthe decided to pick the most expensive items?
"You don't need to," Frank spoke.
Today, he wore a khaki-colored trench coat, giving him a well-defined and structured look. When he walked in, Kamilia found it hard to look away.
He was taller and more imposing than Jesse, the comparison made her realize that her so-called golden son-in-law in ASSYRIA was nothing.
Faced with the people around Eranthe, he had to nod and bow.
Eranthe actually wanted to break free, but Ines pulled her, saying, "Exactly, Frank is going to give it to you anyway. You have so many things, and you can't carry them back. Why not find someone to help carry them?"Eranthe was speechless. She didn't even want those things at all.The diamond shop was right downstairs. They went down from the elevator, and Matthew was already sitting inside, examining the diamond set.There's a delicate snuff bottle inside."If you like it, you can pick it."She was looking at the jade fan on the shelf when a deep and rich male voice sounded from behind.Eranthe turned her head, and Matthew had already averted his gaze. "Colin took a jade hairpin from here before. He said it's for you. Originally, there was also a set of matching jade bracelets and earrings. Want to take a look?"Eranthe was about to decline since she didn't plan to accept the jade hairpin either, but the saleswoman had already taken
If the anklet were on her ankle, it would undoubtedly be delicate and suitable for admiring. Colin's eyes deepened. Morris immediately understood, "I get it. I'll contact the organizers and reserve it for you, so it won't be taken away early." Colin glanced at him with a salty expression, and Morris closed his mouth. Colin retrieved his phone, "Go ask Ines what she wants. Send a gift to the Torres family, consider it my thank-you gift to her." "Okay, Mr. Rodriguez." Seeing Morris had more to say, Colin asked directly, "What is it?" Morris hesitated, "Well, I want to take a leave at the end of the month." "Approved. By the way, I overheard your phone call earlier. Does your nephew want to transfer schools?" Morris was surprised, "I don't want to trouble Mr. Rodriguez with that." Being Colin's assistant was prestigious everywhere, but Morris was a person with discretion and didn't dare to ask for too much. Colin liked people who knew their boundaries, "It's just a small matte
"Eat! Why not? I've finally secured a reservation for the tomahawk steak. Let him foot the bill; Mr. Wilson shouldn't have an issue with that amount of money," Oriel whispered.Frank slightly opened one eye, "Hmm, I happen to not know what to eat tonight, thanks.""Eat, eat, eat, eat yourself to death!" Oriel muttered quietly, turned around and got into the car from the other side, slamming the door loudly.Eranthe got into the back seat.Frank saw a message from Ines saying that Eranthe hadn't taken her shopping bags, the ones they had presented her.Frank sent her a message, "Have someone package it and discreetly deliver it to Ashly Group.""Understood!"Eranthe originally wanted to ask Oriel where she had been during this time, why there was no news. But she noticed that the atmosphere was a bit tense...Especially the way Oriel was driving, it seemed like she was about to kill someone.Frank also didn't know why he
"The little puppy is escorting your little sister home. I can't just barge in, right? Brother, good luck to you."Colin received the message, and his mood instantly shifted from clear to partly cloudy.Meanwhile, Morris was happily anticipating a good year-end bonus, only for Colin to drop the bombshell, "This year's year-end bonus will be deducted by a quarter."Morris was petrified. How could this happen? What on earth happened?Colin was displeased; it seems Jayden still isn't busy enough.He took advantage of every opportunity to approach Eranthe.Now, his business trip really wasn't the best timing. If only he had known not to keep her so busy, so busy that there wasn't even time for him.Eranthe remained oblivious to the impending storm until Frank stood behind her, watching Jayden, and said, "The steak is getting cold; better eat it quickly."While Jayden was being stared at by Frank, he, being a man, naturally sensed th
Eranthe, who was about to get into the passenger seat: ...What's going on? What is he up to today?Oriel took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to curse. Frank had already invited Eranthe into the car. The way he did it made it seem like Oriel was his driver, and he was the one with the car.Eranthe inexplicably got into the car and found herself being taken to Sharon No. 3 by Frank. Just as she was about to make plans with Oriel for the next time, Frank followed her out of the car."Let's go, I'll take you."Alarm bells were ringing in Oriel's head. If he wanted to bother her, fine, but he better not try to bother her sister!She decided to park the car in a nearby spot and stepped out, saying, "Together."Frank raised an eyebrow, a subtle hint of amusement in his eyes.As Eranthe walked ahead, Frank, a few steps behind, pulled Oriel, who was going to join Eranthe, aside. "Already starting to control me so soon?"Ori
Colin picked up Elsa and found a cat carrier in the corner of the living room. He put Elsa inside and then turned to the wardrobe, selecting a long coat.Lifting Eranthe's blanket, he draped the coat over her.Feeling a sudden coolness, Eranthe opened her eyes to see a figure standing in front of her. She was so scared that her heart nearly stopped, and she screamed, and Colin, bending down, picked her up."Save some energy, will you?"Eranthe struggled to get up in terror, her hands waving towards Colin, "Colin!? Are you Colin? How... how are you here?"With three consecutive questions, as they walked into the light of the living room, she confirmed his identity by seeing the hurried look on the man's face.Of course, Colin had received the message from Frank and couldn't wait to rush back, firmly keeping his Eranthe in his grip.In the quiet of the night, he used his werewolf superpowers to transcend space and time, arriving by Eran
She said, "Don't think this will work. I won't forgive you for kidnapping me in the middle of the night!"Angry, she sat up from his lap. "I'm telling you; I'm officially starting a cold war with you.""For how long?""What?""Oh, it doesn't seem like it's been long. As far as I know, a cold war is a state of complete disregard for each other, leading to the other person apologizing and satisfying the comfort of the heart. However, I ask you, and you still answer properly."Colin glanced at his watch, "Not even a second, or should I say, your cold war is so short-lived?"Eranthe blinked, hardly believing what she had just heard."Are you provoking me?" She was already in a bad mood from waking up, and now this dog man was making her laugh. She faced him with a cold expression, saying, "Just wait and see."Seeing that she got out of bed barefoot without going to the wardrobe in front, Colin found she directly grabbed the trench
"Leave the anklet, arrange the rest," Colin replied casually.Eranthe followed from behind and noticed several cars parked near the runway. Colin's security team and the entourage were already there, bowing respectfully as he approached.It dawned on Eranthe that she was now in a realm she had never ventured into – the domain of this stubborn man. Yet, she stood by his side, walking beside him.The accompanying team in Japan, four men and two women, didn't include Amanda, whom Eranthe knew. Nevertheless, they were well aware of Eranthe's identity, given the special attention Colin showered upon her, even if unintentional.Everyone knew that this woman was the sweetheart brought back by Colin overnight, and their attitudes became even more respectful.Although Colin's original intention was not such, fortunately, other people's eyes were not blind. Such obvious special treatment and favoritism could be seen by anyone with eyes.Once ins
