“Hey, Hey, Brandon has finally arrived. Let's get him a drink!"“That’s right, that’s right, those who are late should have a drink!”In a luxury room at a luxury hotel, a table is placed in the center. The ceiling is decorated by a sophisticated ceiling lamp with simple and splendid motifs.More than five people were sitting at the table, including young and old, men and women. On the table, countless dishes were smoking, and the fragrant scent wafted through the room. They laughed and talked non-stop, the laughter was extremely refreshing, but none of them felt really happy.On the four sides of the room were large men in black suits standing guard, their faces cold. At first glance, they looked like stone statues, neither moving nor blinking.Even when Brandon entered, the men in black suits didn't even glance at him, their eyes fixed on the table in the center of the room.Brandon tugged his tie lightly around his neck. Usually, he dresses comfortably, and the buttons are not butt
However, because Harold's family background and corporate wealth were the largest among the corporations here, so Brandon's position was also the highest among the people here. Therefore, most people present in this room must behave based on Brandon's attitude.In the luxurious room that should have been filled with laughter and everyone's voices, now under Brandon's influence, no one dared to say anything. Even Henry, always confident in his position, had to give in.However, people give in to Brandon just not only because he was the son of the oil king Harold, but also because of his smart mind in terms of business. The story that when Brandon was fourteen years old, he saved a large corporation by glancing at the money statistics has been widely circulated. Even Brandon's hater, Henry, had heard about this story, which made him even more jealous of Brandon.…“Sera, how much longer do we have to wait?” Anna looked at the clock on her phone screen, she had been waiting in this room
Jimmy sat in front of the desk, even though he had given himself an explanation for Anna's actions just now, in his mind, her smile was still constantly appearing in his mind.Jimmy feels that something is not right here.'What's wrong?' Jimmy turned the pen in his hand, thinking slowly. He has no shift today, so Jimmy has been at home since the afternoon, after preparing dinner for his parents, he has been sitting at the desk until now.Whenever Anna had an overtime shift or was busy with something and couldn't prepare dinner for the family, Jimmy would do it for her. If nothing unexpected happened, then Anna and her brother would take turns cooking dinner. For example, Anna today, so Jimmy in the next, and the next more, Anna.Party?It wasn't like Anna's usual style, which was why he was suspicious of Anna' actions today.In this time, the doorbell rang from outside. Jimmy thought maybe Anna was back, so he hurried to open the door.But after walking for a bit, Jimmy was bewildered
In a noisy karaoke bar, countless people kept going in and out, the scene was chaotic and bustling.This karaoke bar has been built for a long time, its owner is a man having a lot of influence, so very few people dare to come here to destroy it.The karaoke bar is divided into a fairly simple layout, including regular rooms and VIP rooms. Normal rooms are usually smaller, utilities are also less, but the price is quite cheap.The VIP room is bigger, the furniture is more luxuriously decorated, and there are services to help customers relax more.Brandon sat in VIP room number three for more than half an hour, saying he came here to relieve stress but Henry and the others were all talking about business.He sighed dejectedly, even though he regretted agreeing to come here. 'Why do you torture yourself just because of some silly premonition?'Seeing the girls dancing in front of the screen made Brandon dislike this place even more. Their smiles are really fake.“Henry, I heard you jus
Between the noisy space and dulcet sounds of music songs in this room, two couples of eyes faced. Brandon lowered his eyes to Anna and wasn't blinking.Why does she come here?For a while, Brandon could not think of anything. His brain seemed to stop.On the opposite side, Anna absolutely can not believe her eyes. Although there was a lack of light in Brandon's seat, she still clearly saw his face.Why does he come here?Two same questions are given, but nobody can answer them.Without thinking, Anna constantly blinked her eyes at Brandon. In her mind, she really hopes he can understand the sign. Anna did not want to lose the money, her mother was still in a hospital. When Brandon saw this girl's actions, he sighed. This girl is surely Anna.Seeming to know what Anna means, Brandon actually became furious. He thought Anna completely did not know what she was doing now.Brandon had sneered at Anna. She will regret it!Feeling Brandon's disappointment, Anna kept her head down. She coul
"First, it's a high-paying job but you just need to work for several hours."Anna loves this info and it's the main reason she chose this job."Second, almost working time is at night." Sera stopped for a while, "Do you agree?"Anna thought for a moment and slowly nodded. Her parents and younger brother always take early rest so she can do it."And the third? Does the third condition exist?" Anna asked Sera after she did not hear anything more from Sera."You may sacrifice some of your rights." Sera sighed, then said slowly."Such as?" Anna looked at Sera and waited for the next sentence."Such as you can be touched by others in some embarrassing locations. Like your waist, your shoulder, your hands, and your lips sometimes." Sera told the truth, she did not like to lie to someone at risk because she used to such as in Anna's position. Sera was cheated on and lost her future life.She hoped Anna knew what Anna is doing now.Sera respected Anna's decision but after Anna chose to start
"I don't want Vivia to think I'm a money-hungry." Anna whispered, her voice exuding a rare loneliness. Brandon had never seen this look on her face before. Currently, she looks extremely docile, and gentle, different from the fierce look he usually sees.“I don't want her to look at me differently… like everyone else.” Anna spoke softly, Brandon seemed to see her crying in front of him.Brandon was silent, then he said nothing more. Anna was like him, both of them were like two stone statues, completely motionless.After a moment of silence, Brandon seemed to remember something. He frowned and lifted Anna's chin so she could look him in the eye."Does Sera know you're sixteen?" Brandon's eyes looked dark as he said this.Anna heard his question, she shook her head and spoke softly. “No, I lied that I was eighteen years old.”"Does she believe it?" Anna could see the anger in his voice. The force Brandon put on the finger that was gripping her chin made Anna feel a little pain.“She d
“No, the kiss between the two of them is completely normal.” Brandon leaned down, biting Anna's earlobe.'Oh, this is so soft!' Brandon's eyes grew deep, fire burning deep in his eyes.“If you have never seen this scene, then why do you dare to come here? You are too brave!” Brandon snorted coldly, mocking Anna.Anna's cheeks became hotter than ever. She whispered."I thought…"When Anna and Brandon were still talking to each other, Larry and Sera were still passionately kissing, surrounded by fiery glances at Larry."Didn't expect Director Larry to be so good!" Sarina laughed. Beside her was Lily, the girl who had led Anna to Sera in the luxury hotel.Sarina put her arm around Lily's neck, Sarina's hand was as pervert as Larry's. Sometimes Sarina even licked Lily's lips, her eyes full of passion. It seems like Sarina hasn't been this comfortable for a long time. Lily not only ignored Sarina but also responded to Sarina enthusiastically.Although the issue of Sarina liking girls has n
Clatter!Ring… ring… ring.Anna closed the door, and as soon as she took her seat, the class bell rang. Anna wiped the sweat from her forehead, letting out a sigh of relief.Luckily, there’s still time!In addition to the condition that students receive scholarships, to receive allowance from the school, Anna must be present for attendance on time. In a month, do not let go late three times. If more than three times, then there will be no allowance in the first week of the following month.Therefore, every day Anna tries to go to school on time. Not to mention receiving allowance, but coming to school on time is the duty and responsibility of students.“Anna, why are you so late today?” Vivia sat next to Anna, while the teacher hadn’t arrived. She leaned closer to Anna, asking questions.‘Didn’t she say she was going to Vivia’s house? Why would Vivia ask that? Could it be that Anna didn’t come to Vivia’s house last night?’ Brandon, as usual, was still asleep on the table. But as soon
The place wasn’t very big, so Anna had to curl up to sit inside.A sleepless night taking care of Brandon, plus being in the rain for a long time, made Anna’s face look tired. Even working overtime rarely made her so tired.…Pipes, pipes.In the deep blue sky, the sun is rising, the warm sunlight shines through everything.In a small park, a girl slept under a slide for one night, her whole body hunched over, looking pitiful.Anna felt the sun shining in her eyes. She woke up dreamily.‘Oh, where is this?’ Anna was bewildered. Everything that happened last night flashed through her mind. ‘I didn't come home yesterday, that's right.’Suddenly remembering something, Anna hurriedly searched for her phone in her bag. Today is not a weekend, so she has to go to class in the morning.7:30 A.MAnna sees the number in the middle of the phone screen.After seeing this number, she quickly put on her bag and ran to school. Less than half an hour left, Medrano High School will officially start t
Brandon summarized the story he encountered today for Anna. But Anna assessed, compared to when talking with Ms. Bunny, Brandon seems to use less emotion in her sentences.‘As expected of men, they only like attractive people.’ The bunny suit that Anna wore while serving in the bar was quite sexy, and Brandon liked Ms. Bunny like that, so Anna guessed Brandon was quite fond of sexy girls.“Huh.” Brandon didn’t say anything. He just glanced at Anna, completely quieting her down. Okay, he’s a patient. Give him a moment, Anna told herself.“So, what do you want?” In the middle of a space with the only sound coming from the TV, the content Brandon suddenly said startled Anna.“What?” Anna still did not quite understand what Brandon meant. She felt that she never seemed to fully understand the sentences Brandon said.“I ask you again, what do you want?” Brandon repeated, his expression still as calm as ever.“Sorry, but I still don’t quite understand what you’re saying?” To put it bluntly,
In the kitchen, the heat radiated, Anna quickly stirred the pot of meat porridge, then added a little seasoning, and finally added little chopped scallions into the pot.It’s one o’clock in the morning, and Anna has texted her parents, informing them she will stay at Vivia’s house for the night. Vivia has been to her house a few times, so Anna’s parents know their daughter has a new best friend at school, and they welcome Vivia.Later, Anna also sent Vivia a message, instructing Vivia that, if Anna’s parents call, just say she is with Vivia.Clack!Anna put the lid on the pot after turning off the stove. The porridge is cooked. As long as Brandon wakes up, he can eat porridge.Recalling Brandon’s expression tonight, Anna noticed that he had two faces when he was with everyone.With close people, Brandon creates a feeling of friendliness and warmth. He can smile in front of them and can show his weak face without hesitation.With strangers, or just stopping at basic communication, such
“Hey, who cares about you? Bullshit!” Anna nodded after hearing the first sentence, but when she heard the second sentence, she glared. For some reason, Brandon found Ann at that moment so cute.Brandon smiled, then the two walked silently to the house Brandon had described earlier.Although it was pitch black, under the gentle light of the street lamps, Anna could still glimpse the house with dark orange tiles, the four walls covered with moss, and the moss-like vines, constantly crawling to different positions. The house seemed to be quite old and must have existed here for a long time.Not far from the house was a large mulberry tree, vines winding around its trunk. Some foliage points up to the sky, and some fall back down, looking very lively. Sometimes there is wind, and the leaves sway like scared something.“It’s an old house, isn’t it?” Anna stood in the distance, squinting at the front. “It looks like the house was built in the twentieth century, around 1485 onwards, right?
“The price is fourteen dollars and fifty-nine cents.” A quick voice said, “Here’s your change. Have a nice day. Thank you for visiting our store.”Anna saw off the last customer in the convenience store, then twisted the ‘close’ face of the open-close sign board hanging in front of the glass door. She let out a long breath after wiping the sweat off her forehead. Finished the shift today!Anna’s shift today didn’t end so late. As usual, she could go home at 9 am, but the person on duty reported that she can't come today, so Anna tried to work until eleven o’clock at night.Her parents and younger brother were asleep now.Family members have been doing this for many years. Anna is the only one who comes home late from work, leading to her rest time being later than everyone else.Today is also a late day for Anna.It is past eleven-thirty in the evening. Almost no one walking like Anna could be found on the road. She wandered the streets, following the path back home.Oh?!Anna looked
After drinking a wake up soup, Brandon gradually regained consciousness. He rubbed his head, and tiredly lay on the bed, reminiscing about the whole day.Suddenly remembering the pink piece of paper that had been returned, Brandon jumped, opened his backpack, and took out a very wrinkled pink piece of paper.‘Maybe she have solved that problem?’ Brandon speculated.But before long, the entire detailed solution of the Olympic problem that gave Brandon a headache was written on the back of the piece of paper.‘Really?’ Brandon still couldn’t believe this fact.“Hmm…”Brandon mused, if that’s the case, then this means he has to fulfill his promise to do something for Anna.Really? Does he have to do something for her?The joy of meeting Ms. Bunny disappeared in an instant, Brandon thought for a long time. In his mind was the image of Anna with a malicious expression asking him to do shameful things.Although Brandon had anticipated this, the thought of doing something for Anna still made
“You know, Peter is my closest friend. I felt very ashamed when I saw my mother hurt him.” Brandon sighed in a voice filled with sadness. “I know he won’t notice, but I hate my mother. She is authoritarian.”Brandon was in a bad mood that day, and finally, Anna understood why.“Is your friend getting better?” Anna asked.Brandon nodded. “He wasn’t badly hurt. His face and hands were hurt, but most of the debris went to the outside of his jacket.”“Maybe Peter will go to school soon.” Brandon thought, then added.Anna listened. She sympathized with Brandon and understood why he ignored the note she had sent him this morning.However, Anna must be very careful, in case Brandon knows Bunny is Anna, his classmate.Not that Anna couldn’t tell Brandon who she was, but she didn’t want too many people to know she worked here, especially as Brandon was also her classmate.Brandon and Anna had been here for two hours. It was now past nine o’clock in the evening. The bar has become more crowded.
"Wait? Wait until when? You've said this almost ten times already!" Jessica will bite her lip, her beautiful face is fierce. This afternoon, after lunch, Jessica saw Brandon, Anna, and a few others gathered together. Looks like they're discussing something. Maybe it's a new plan! But for what purpose, Jessica completely did not know. Although she was curious about what they were discussing, Jessica couldn't hear anything. This made her extremely angry. Because she was upset, Jessica hired someone to observe the actions of Anna and the others. The person Jessica hired was the same person who locked Anna in the toilet last time. "You have to understand me. They're very quiet, so I couldn't hear them directly. I can only track their movements, then report back to you!” On the other end of the line, the familiar voice spoke again, her tone looking flattered. After thinking for a while, Jessica agreed Ok so after you follow me they're total remember to report everything to me I mus
