“I know, right?” Lucy looked delighted too. “Ms. Vanderbilt has high standards when it comes to looking for a design. Apart from the refinement of the workpiece, she looks for creativity too. She also insists that all creations must have their own souls.”“Soul?” Naomi stared at her.Lucy explained, “Although I don’t know what the soul of a workpiece is, the motto of Soul Jewelry is to instill souls in all its products. Ms. Vanderbilt said even though a jewelry piece is an inanimate object, its designer must give a meaning to its existence when it’s being designed.”Naomi arrived at a lightbulb moment all of a sudden.Lucy turned to look at her. “Ms. Vanderbilt has high hopes for you.”Naomi was stunned for a split second. “Me?”“Yes.” Lucy nodded as her gaze was fixed on the jewelry in the cabinet. “Ms. Vanderbilt said that you’ll also become a successful jewelry designer in the future.”Naomi’s eyelashes drooped as she did not know what to think.However, at this time, Lucy s
Seeing that Nolan and Maisie had come, Nicholas was slightly flustered. “Why are you here?”“We’ve come to see Grandpa.” Nolan glanced into the ward. “What happened to him?”Nicholas snorted. “What else could have happened? He’s still as stubborn as a mule at such an old age. He wouldn’t even come to the hospital even though he already felt not too well since long ago.”As soon as Nicholas finished explaining to Nolan, Titus’ dissatisfied voice sounded from inside the ward. “B*stard! Isn’t it just hypertension? My body is still as tough as it could ever be.”Nicholas glanced at Nolan with a speechless expression. “You see?”The doctor said that Titus suffered from hypertension. Since he was very old, the sudden hypertension wasn’t good news for the elderly.Nicholas seconded the doctor and said to Nolan after the doctor left, “Go in and persuade your grandfather.”Nolan adjusted his suit’s jacket and walked into the ward.Titus was leaning on the bed for an infusion. He lifted
‘But what can we say? He’s the tycoon of Yaramoor. He’s wealthy enough to wage war on a country without any hesitation. Not to mention that his family is closely connected to Yaramoor’s nobility. So, why would he take a fancy to a woman from our circle?‘Frankly speaking, marrying a princess might not even be on his to-do list.’Yorrick apologized to them, walked toward Anthony with a wine glass, and proposed a toast.Anthony was flattered and said with a smile, “Mr. Hathaway, I should be the one who’s proposing a toast here.”Yorrick responded solemnly, “You’re an elder, and I’m the one who wants to collaborate with you, so it’s only natural for me to show you some respect.”Anthony did not say anything more. Since the other party did not care about such trivial matters, he went with the flow and casually accepted his toast.The director standing beside Anthony asked with a smile, “Mr. Topaz, why didn’t your daughter come with you?”Anthony replied, “My daughter isn’t very used
“Mr. Hathaway, is this how you make a fool out of the women that you’ve approached before this? I really took what you said very seriously.” Jodie looked very disappointed.Unfortunately, this trick did not work on him either. “Are you serious? So did you play hard-to-get with me the other day?”She came up with an excuse instantly. “I... I just needed some time to think about it at that time. I wasn’t playing hard-to-get.”Yorrick smiled. “Then are you telling me that you’ve thought about it thoroughly now?”“Yes.” Jodie approached him boldly, pulled his hand, and pressed it against her chest with all her strength. “I’m deadly serious and sincere this time around, Mr. Hathaway. I can be yours tonight as long as you’re willing to accept me.”The door of the next room just happened to be pushed open at that exact moment. Xyla, who had taken off her makeup, showered, and had not dried her hair, came out to the corridor in a bathrobe to pick up a call from a takeaway delivery man.T
The place they were standing was a huge balcony in front of the room with a sea view, as if it was connected to the sea. The Milky Way was splitting the night sky in two.Nolan hugged her. “Do you like this?”“Yes!” She put her hand out as though she could touch the stars.Nolan put out his hand and placed it on top of hers, and the two rings shone as they intertwined their fingers.Maisie turned to look at him, tip-toed, and kissed his chin. Nolan paused with smiling eyes. “Is that enough?”She put her head on his shoulder. “Don’t be greedy.”Nolan kissed her lips until she was out of breath before letting her go. He ran his finger across her lips. Maisie batted her lashes, put her hands behind his neck, and kissed him again. “Nolan, what does it feel like to be under the stars?”Nolan raised his brows. “Do you want to find out?”Maisie took off his tie, pushed him against the window, and entangled together passionately. It was like the waves rushing into shore, and it was als
Yorrick took a few looks at her. She hadn’t blown her hair out properly the night before, so it was a mess. She hadn’t had makeup on and had just been wearing a robe, so he didn’t recognize her the night before. However, as he took a closer look, she looked great now that she was dressed up. Her figure was pretty close to the women he had met overseas. But her actions… probably were from the entertainment world.Yorrick looked down and smiled because he thought it was funny, “I’m sorry, I really didn’t recognize you.”Xyla’s smile froze, and she naturally put the pen away. If she didn’t feel embarrassed, the other person would. When the elevator door opened, a couple who was waiting outside was deep in a kiss and didn’t notice that the doors were open. When the assistant saw who the man was, she was startled. “Nathan!?”Nathan stopped what he was doing, and his expression froze when he looked into the elevator. He then pushed the woman away. “Xyla, I can explain!”Nathan woul
Xyla turned to look outside the window. The only man that she had given her heart to was Louis. After it ended, even when she dated other men, she never felt the same passion. As for Nathan, she was going to give him a chance, but he didn’t take it. As such, there was no need for that.She looked through her contacts and blocked his number.Xyla got on set, and Nathan stood in front of her car when she was taking a break, waiting. When he saw Xyla and her assistant walking over, he suddenly got on his knees with a bouquet of roses. “Xyla, I’m sorry! Can you give me another chance?”The assistant sniggered. “Nathan, you were just kissing a woman so passionately a while ago, and now you’re asking Xyla for a chance? Who do you think Xyla is?”Nathan looked at Xyla and tried to explain. “I… She kissed me. I was stunned, so I didn’t push her away. Xyla, I really like you.”The crew on set all looked over because they knew that they were dating. When they saw him on his knees, they
So what if she was the princess of the entertainment industry? She was just going to be played by men.Nathan left the set with an angry face.A Lincoln Limo was parked not far away. The bodyguard got out and opened the door for Yorrick, who then put his long leg out, stood up, and buttoned up his shirt.The man who got out of the car with him was an investor in the show who said something to Yorrick and led him into the set. The director and assistant director got a call and immediately went to welcome him. When they saw how friendly their investor was to Yorrick, they smiled and asked, “And this is?”The man smiled and answered, “This is Mr. Hathaway, our new investor. He’s very interested in your show ‘The Clouds’ and plans to invest $12,000,000 into it. $12,000,000 was a huge amount. He was pretty much the biggest investor, so the director was very friendly. He immediately got the crew to bring him some tea. Yorrick looked at the actors who were taking a break. The direct
