When Jay came to Grand Asia, Grayson had already been waiting for a long time.He criticized in his heart that Mr. Ares seemed to be coming in for work slightly later than before!After Jay sat down, he immediately pulled out a piece of A4 paper, picked up a pen, and wrote a series of numbers on it.Grayson looked at the phone number and asked in astonishment, "Isn't this Rose's phone number?"Jay handed it over to Grayson. "Check it."Grayson put on a dignified expression. The president did not explain in detail what exactly he wanted him to check. Would he only be satisfied after he had dug up everything single information about Rose?Grayson held the piece of paper with the phone number written on it and walked out. He handed it to the cybersecurity department and ordered with great urgency, "Tap into the telecommunications network immediately and retrieve all information linked to this phone number."Grayson propped his hands up on the table and said in an exceedingly stern
Grayson was startled. “Oh.”‘Mr. Ares has always disliked attending all kinds of high-profiled banquets, mostly because he hates being surrounded by women.‘This time around, Mr. Ares barely thought to reject Sean Bell’s invitation. He must surely have a little ounce of respect for the heir of Bell Enterprise.’“You’ll need a dance partner, Mr. Ares!” Grayson brought it up carefully.“A dance partner?” An image of Rose flashed through Jay’s mind.She had waltzed with him on the night of Josephine’s birthday banquet, and he remembered them being well-coordinated with one another.“Prepare an evening gown for Rose Loyle.”Grayson was so stunned by his statement that his jaw dropped. ‘Mr. Ares gets nauseous whenever Rose Loyle’s name was mentioned in the past. Now, he’s taking the initiative to ask the latter to be his dance partner?’Perhaps this was the opposite of the saying that went, ‘familiarity breeds contempt’?“Yes.”“Does Mr. Ares have any requirements for the banquet’
It was Jay’s first time feeling threatened by the little thing. He stared at the little being provocatively with a cold gaze. “Baby Zetty, your Mommy wants to find a stepdad for you. Aren’t you afraid that your new dad is going to abuse you?”Baby Zetty stood up and placed her little hands on her back as she pouted. She walked toward Jay in an elderly-man pattern and looked up at him. She said in a serious tone, “My real dad doesn’t like me, and he doesn’t like my Mommy either. He beats her and scolds her often. Uncle Sean seems nice and looks like he has a good temper. If he treats my Mommy well, I’ll like him too.”Jay turned his head and looked at Rose. “Is she telling the truth?”Rose felt lost and hesitated… Then, she finally nodded.Jay frowned at her response. He never expected Rose’s second husband to have been such a scumbag.“Where’s he now?” Jay had a problem containing his anger.Rose was baffled as she looked at him, completely stupefied.He was the one Baby Zetty w
After the gown was delivered, Rose looked at the exquisitely crafted box and was suddenly dumbfounded.It was a limited edition Milan HY that would cost roughly ten grand.She would never be able to afford the damages if she accidentally soiled or damaged it.“I think it’s better to forget about it, Sir Ares. The gown is way too costly.”Jay stared at her with his eagle eyes. “How do you know it’s expensive?”Rose realized later that she had exposed something she should not have.“I guessed it,” she replied with a guilty conscience.The doubts in Jay’s eyes grew stronger, and the gaze he shot at Rose became somewhat more profound.“It’s not exorbitant. And it’s for you.”Rose looked at him in amazement.‘This fellow is willing to give me such an expensive gown? Perhaps the dress inside the crafted box isn't original?’Rose gently and cautiously opened the box. This gown’s gift box was ridiculously luxurious, even the pushbuttons were made of pure white gold.She was very fa
The Rolls-Royce was parked right by the door. When Rose stretched her hand out to open the door, Jay, who was rarely gallant, had extended his arms as well. Then, the two’s hands fell on the handlebar simultaneously.Rose immediately retracted her hand and looked at Jay as she trembled.‘Is he trying to open the door for me?’She denied the notion right after. This fellow was someone out of touch with reality and was a business tycoon. ‘Why would he open the car door for a nonentity?’Jay saw how defensive she got and felt somewhat frustrated.He had stood by the door for a long time, but Rose merely stared at him blankly. She was afraid to get inside the car without his permission.Jay’s hand was stuck on the handle for quite some time before he spat, “Get in.” His deep voice was blended with a hint of exasperation.Rose was dumbfounded once more.‘So he really wants to open the door for me? What’s up with the sudden sense of chivalry?’She scooted herself into the car, and J
The gown was dragged across the ground, sweeping it as she walked. Jay looked on as she left in pique and let out a smirk.Grayson felt distressed about the ten grand evening gown being hauled that way. ‘It was indeed destined to be laid to waste.’There was a smile in Jay’s eyes when he said, “Only a woman without vanity will trample on the good stuff I’ve given in such a way.”Grayson grew petrified as he froze.‘Is Mr. Ares boasting about Rose Loyle?’Why did it suddenly feel like the whole time he helped Mr. Ares out in mistreating Rose would turn out to be a self-inflicted sin and he would not live to survive it?He could merely hope that it was an illusion. Once Rose entered the banquet’s entrance, she immediately attracted everyone’s attention.Her beauty was extraordinarily exquisite, and the evening gown she wore helped her stand out from the crowd.Rose became the focal point of the whole venue without her realizing it. Her gaze merely scanned through the crowd for
Josephine’s gaze was fixed on Rose and Jay’s matching outfit. She quickly exclaimed, “You guys are wearing a couple's costumes. Are you Jay’s dancing partner today?”Rose was about to explain, but Jay extended his large pincers-like hands and grasped her wrist. He spun her to the side and strictly warned in a whisper, “The Bell and Ares are trying their best to make Josephine and Sean’s marriage happen. It’d be better if you don’t mention anything about being Sean’s dancing partner, Rose Loyle.”Rose had an embarrassing realization. If Josephine and Sean were a pair, it would be inappropriate to be Sean’s dance partner.When Jay noticed Rose’s awkward comprehension, the corners of his sexy and charming lips made a melodious arc.Josephine was still waiting for Rose’s reply, so Rose plucked up her courage to link arms with Jay. Then, she returned to Josephine’s with a smile. “Yeah.”Josephine immediately showed a beaming smile. “Big Bro, Sister-in-law, you guys look so good togethe
He initially had planned to change his outfit but could not get his hands on the key to the fitting room. Hence, he could only return without success.Josephine said somewhat enthusiastically, “I’m sorry, Sean. It seems like your dancing partner was taken away by my brother. To express my apologies, I can be your temporary dancing partner… If you don’t mind.”Sean gave it a thought and nodded. “Alright.”When Josephine and Sean walked toward the venue, they immediately collided with Jay and Rose. Jay took his undeserved gain for granted when he said, “Sean Bell, red really does suit you.”Sean had no choice but to suffer in silence. There was a bitter taste in his mouth.“Rose, don’t forget your agreement to dance with me.” Sean looked at Rose with a smile, his tone gentle.Jay watched as the two openly ‘flirted’ right in front of him, and there was a glimpse of an evil sneer in his eyes. ‘Don’t dream about it!’Sean picked up the red wine in his hand and raised a glass to Ros
