Meanwhile, the only person left that Annabelle could count on was Zayn.She was not a fool. She could tell from Peter’s dread towards Miles earlier as well as Miles’ unruly behavior that Miles was definitely a bigshot that she could not afford to offend!Despite being this famous celebrity with a superior status in the eyes of ordinary people, she knew very well that there were way too many people more formidable than her in society. She was just a toy worthless of a mention in the midst of these capitalists and bigshots. She had witnessed with her own eyes many celebrities in the entertainment industry flatter and fawn the owners of big businesses and bigshots without upholding the slightest hint of integrity with these people. Had she not been talented enough and kept a low profile, she would have already been toyed with by countless capitalists in view of her fame and beauty. She refused to live a life like that, not ever!She found that she could not accept the wretched and
Miles moved so swiftly and swung his leg very strongly, aiming straight at Zayn’s lower body. He was planning to kick Zayn’s balls so hard that the latter would be rendered infertile.Miles’ attack was ruthless. Zayn did not even offend him, yet he attacked him so mercilessly. One could imagine the evil deeds that he committed on usual days and how many people were defeated by him just thinking about it. Sombreness flashed past Zayn’s eyes for a moment, and he let out a heavy grunt. He did not plan to be very hostile to Miles initially and merely found Miles an eyesore at most. However, Miles’ actions turned his heart cold and ruthless. Amelia and the other female celebrities widened their eyes and screamed in astonishment when they witnessed Miles’s leg aiming for Zayn’s lower body. In their perception, Zayn would certainly be ruined from such a blow!The corner of Miles’ lips curled into a smirk. He felt especially elated in his heart because there was nothing more enjoyable
His lackeys followed his orders obediently and rushed towards Zayn immediately. A few of them frequently engaged in fights and were rather skilled in martial arts as well, thus they did not rush towards Zayn empty-handed. Instead, they conveniently grabbed a few beer bottles on the table as weapons. One had no choice but to acknowledge that it was a rather grand scene with at least 13 to 14 adult men charging towards Zayn menacingly. If another common person were in Zayn’s shoes, the person would have already been dumbstruck with fear. That was the truth. Other than Zayn, Annabelle and the others were screaming in trepidation upon witnessing the situation. They were utmost terrified. Albeit being famous celebrities, they were also ordinary humans who were physically weak. They mingled with educated, cultured people and barely engaged in quarrels with others, let alone being involved in such a huge conflict. Peter’s expression was flooded with unease as well. Panic-stricken, he re
Zayn’s expression was calm without much emotion in his expression. He did not have the slightest pride or excitement on his face as if he had just done something not worthy of a mention. He released Annabelle and said, “Ms. Laking, I’m sorry for acting rashly with you during the urgent situation earlier.”Annabelle moved away from Zayn’s grip and found that she was actually feeling a sense of loss!This made her blush, so she hastily shook her head and said, “I’m...I’m fine. I should be the one thanking you. Thank you for saving me.”Zayn smiled and said, “I hardly lifted a finger.”Amelia and the other few female celebrities were so envious upon witnessing the scene when they recovered from their surprise! They endlessly cursed Annabelle in their hearts for being such a cunning fox and taking their man. Indeed, they regarded Zayn as their man. He was rich, had a good figure, was skilled in combat, and was so polite. He was simply the legendary Prince Charming in the stories!As f
Zayn knew exactly when to stop without going too far. “I will beat you up every single time I see you bullying women from now on,” Zayn spoke as if he was a senior to Miles, “Do you hear me?”Miles was completely afraid of Zayn now. His neck shrunk for a moment upon hearing Zayn’s order. He felt the fear as if he was back in the principal's office after getting in trouble at school, so he hastily nodded and said, “I hear you, I hear you. I won’t do it again from now on!”Zayn turned around and declared to Peter and the others, “It’s over. Let’s go back to our dinner.”In the meantime, Peter and the others had yet to recover from their surprise. The incident earlier came as a shock to them, especially to Peter. He knew about Miles’ identity as the son of Everest Group’s owner, so he was not someone to be offended. Now that Zayn had beaten Miles up like that, his action was no different than slapping Kevan’s face. Given Kevan’s temperament, he certainly would never leave the matte
Upon hearing that, Peter’s eyes lit up. He was even more determined to pursue the idea of buttering up Zayn!Annabelle bit her lower lip and took the initiative to fill Zayn’s glass. She expressed her heartfelt gratitude by saying, “Mr. Larson, I was lucky to have your help in that incident earlier. Thank you! If there’s anything that you need from me from now on, just say as you please. I will certainly do my best to fulfill your requests, Mr. Larson!”Noticing Annabelle’s beautiful face that was visibly touched, Zayn suddenly felt mischievous and blurted out, “Will you fulfill any request of mine?”Annabelle was stunned for a moment. She immediately thought about something else upon noticing Zayn’s current expression, and in turn, her face blushed pink. She hesitated for a moment before nodding strenuously as if she had made an important decision and said, “Yes! Your wish is my command!”Zayn was only teasing her casually, so he did not expect her to actually take it seriously. H
Amelia and the others were frozen in shock!What the heck was going on? It was obvious that they were the ones who had taken the initiative to offer to send Zayn home, so why did Zayn still mention Annabelle by name?That was unfair. Could it be because Annabelle was the most beautiful of them all?F*ck!Amelia was the most reluctant of all. She had already made such an obvious display of herself, yet Zayn still chose Annabelle. Peter looked towards Annabelle with a flirtatious gaze. Moreover, he said meaningfully, “Oh, Annabelle, since Mr. Larson is asking for you to send him home, you must do well and not disappoint him, alright?”Annabelle’s heart was racing while her charming face blushed a vivid, scarlet tone. She nodded and said shyly, “Hmm, sure, I will…”Zayn was rendered extremely speechless upon witnessing the exchange of words. He questioned himself if he looked that perverted to warrant for this situation.In the end, Zayn and Annabelle left together under the envi
“Huh?”Annabelle was so startled that she immediately retreated. As a result, she knocked her head in a hurry. She was in so much pain that she teared up and a bump appeared on the back of her head. Zayn felt really speechless about Annabelle’s behavior. Why was she so clumsy in real life, completely mismatching her cold, proud online persona?“Are you alright?” he asked in concern. Annabelle felt immensely embarrassed and wished that she could bury her head. What was going on with her? She was such a klutz that she actually knocked the back of her head and made a fool of herself in front of Mr. Larson!“I’m… I’m fine…” Despite her words, the agony on her expression could not be concealed regardless. Zayn heaved a sigh and said helplessly, “Come here. Let me blow on it for you.”“Huh? I’m good. Thanks!” Annabelle was startled. Zayn disregarded her and shifted his body to her side instantly. He supported her head while he blew on her bruise gently. Annabelle could feel herse
