Other people in the chat were shocked by Anon12358 too. Messages popped up one after another.[Oh my god, this guy is a real whale. I didn't expect that.][He's spending so much money just to chase after some girl…][Could this guy be the CEO who's trying to coax his wife?]Renee stared at the top donor's profile picture. She became even more curious about the identity behind the anonymous ID.They thought the matter had come to an end.Mandy, filled with excitement, said loudly to the camera, "The contest will end in five minutes. Thank you to the top donor for helping me get on the dating show. I'll keep my promise. I'll prepare a romantic candlelight dinner for you and Renee...”But suddenly, another mysterious person started donating like crazy too. With 160,000 dollars worth of donation, he successfully wrestled the top donor spot away from Anon12358.Everyone became really excited. The number of viewers kept climbing until it reached 50 million.“W-Wow... thank you “Shad
”Stef, did you watch your little darling’s stream just now?”Xavier rushed up to Stefan with an excited look on his face and immediately asked, "Tell me honestly, are you the stupid top donor who fell for their trick?”Stefan appeared disinterested. While flipping through the documents in his hand, he said expressionlessly, "What stream?”“Stop pretending. There's no way you didn't know about something that big. Moreover... it's your little darling’s live stream! There's no way you would miss it!”Stefan didn't even look up. "I'm busy.”What he meant was: Shut the hell up!Xavier knew Stefan would not admit it. After all, the guy had always been proud.Therefore, he snatched the phone that Stefan had placed aside before Stefan could react.“Your phone is turned off. That's even more suspicious. I have to check it!”Xavier tried to turn on the phone.“Give it back!”Stefan looked up and gave Xavier a death stare.Xavier gulped and immediately changed his mind. He obediently
“Uhh... how would I know?”But Xavier quickly latched on to the key point and asked with a strange smile, "Stef, why are you only curious about who the second highest donor is and not the highest? Aren't you exposing yourself?”Based on normal logic, people would normally be curious about the first place. Who would care about the second place?!Stefan knew he could not deny it anymore, so he pursed his lips and said nothing. His cold, handsome face clearly read "Don't push it".Unfortunately, Xavier was a guy who had no fear. He continued teasing Stefan. "Stef, like the netizens said, you sure are willing to spend to make a woman happy. 4 million dollars for a dinner. That must be a Guinness World Record. You're... going tomorrow evening, right?”Stefan did not answer Xavier's question, but instead mocked him back, "In terms of spending money on women, how can I compare to you? In recent years... in order to make your girl famous, you must have spent more than 40 million dollars.
The two grown men fought over the phone like kids. After going at it for a while, Stefan said, "Stop meddling in my affair with that woman from now on, and this recording won't get to Shirley.”“Fine, you win. I won't gossip or meddle in your affair anymore.”Xavier was well and truly defeated this time.“Good boy!” Stefan nodded with satisfaction.Sure enough, when push came to shove, he had to use a lethal weapon like Shirley to keep the annoying and gossipy Xavier in check!Xavier fled after he was defeated, but before he left, he tried asking one last time, "You’ll go to the dinner tomorrow, right?”Seeing Stefan unlock his phone and act like he was going to send the recording, Xavier quickly gave up. "Never mind. Forget I even asked.”At the same time, he thought to himself, 'Keep pretending, Stefan. You're gonna regret it!'-Mandy was still in disbelief after turning off the stream.She checked her account's income with her mouth wide open the whole time.“Oh my god,
Anon12358's reply was: [I'll go if I feel like it.]They didn’t know what he looked like, but from just the reply, they could imagine his smug, cocky face.Mandy clicked on Anon12358's personal information page. It was completely empty.“This guy seems to be using a newly registered account. His profile picture is the default one and there's nothing in his personal information page. But the first thing he did was spend 4 million dollars... He obviously came for you, Ren.”She boldly speculated, "Maybe he's Mr. Hunt.”Looking at the default profile picture, Renee's red lips curled up into a faint smile. "Maybe. We'll find out tomorrow.”If she really wanted to know, she could investigate his IP address any time, but she did not do that. She was curious if he would go to the dinner tomorrow.Late that night, Renee returned to Leia Osborne's apartment.To her surprise, Liam was there too.“There you are, Boss. If you had come back any later, I would have called the police.”Liam
Renee looked like she was joking, but she was actually serious.Without the full and unconditional support of the Osborne family for the past four years, she would not have achieved success so quickly and would not have been able to return with so much confidence.She was not afraid of anyone now. The only thing she feared was disappointing Liam!“That's more like it.”Liam had been drowning in jealousy the whole night. Now, his handsome face finally brightened, like the blue sky after the rain.Ah, he used to have such a good life. Because he was cunning and clever, he was given the title of "Beach City's Little Demon King". Even the most cocky people in Beach City had to steer clear of him so that they wouldn't get bitten.But now, he had become Renee's obedient little brother.He lived an honest life, worked hard, stopped picking up women, stopped bullying the weak, and even helped old ladies cross the road when he had nothing better to do. He was as upright as a model elemen
Renee felt her exhaustion vanish the moment she saw her daughter. She felt all warm and fuzzy inside.“How are you today, Mommy? Abby missed you so much.”Abigail was a sweet girl, and her eyes were big and round.She was holding a homemade phone in her hand. She aimed one end of the phone at the screen and placed the other end at her ear. "Mommy, if you have any secrets, you can tell Abby. Margaret won't hear it.”Her innocence and cuteness made Renee smile. Renee played along and whispered, "Did you behave today? Did you wet your pants?”Abigail's face, which was as red as an apple, turned even redder as she blushed. "You're so bad, Mommy. I don't wet my pants anymore. Only Adie does now!”“Hahaha, that's right. Mommy forgot. You don't wet your pants anymore. You just like to dawdle in bed.”“Mommy, come home. If you come home, I won't dawdle in bed anymore. Both Adie and I miss you so much,” Abigail's puppy eyes drooped as she said pitifully.“Don't worry. Everything's going
“But I don't think you like my brother, do you? He's always been your underling. No boss marries their underling.”“Marriage is less about liking someone and more about whether the person is suitable.”Renee smiled self-deprecatingly. "Take me, for example. You know how much I loved a certain man in the past? And how did that work out?”“It's hard for me to become close with someone, especially men. Liam has been by my side all these years—helping me, supporting me, warming my heart. He makes me feel at ease. I don't think there's anyone in this world more suitable for me than him.”“The reason you would think he's suitable for you is because he suppresses his own nature to appeal to you... no, that's not entirely right.” Leia frowned as she searched for the right words. "It's like he's hiding his sharp edges to cater to you. In truth, my brother is extremely cocky. He has lots of ideas, lots of ambition, and he's very capable. Otherwise, he wouldn't be notoriously known as the “Su
