Semua Bab Unveiling the True Match: Bab 711 - Bab 720

Yaslyn did not hesitate to turn down the Jentsch fortune. "Juggling the Lukesh Company is enough of a headache. Let Gary handle the Jentsch mess."She had not forgotten Gary's biting words. If she took over the Jentsch estate, Gary would never forgive her.Besides, Gary had already accepted her as his sister. How could she justify snatching the family legacy from him?Truth be told, she could not care less about the Jentsch empire. However, Yaslyn had not realized that Gary had changed a lot over the years.Quigley scoffed, "Him? All he does is moon over his love life. He's got no time for the family business."Silvestra and Gary... Were they an item?Yaslyn had been gone four years, and while the country's economy was stagnant, relationships had flourished.Suddenly, a gentle voice came from behind them."Grandpa!"A petite, soft, and chubby girl dashed toward them. Eyeing the two strangers, she nibbled on her lip."Grandpa, who are these people?"Though she looked a bit sh

In Jefferson City, Tyler lounged on his office's plush leather sofa, scanning the day's headlines with a frown.His assistant, no stranger to drama, watched with a mix of awe and anxiety."Should we pull this piece of news?"It was a bit of a scandal. The president's soon-to-be wife was on the front page for the thirty-eighth time that month!Last time, it was a kiss with a co-star that got blown out of proportion.Before that, a playful flirtation with a fresh-faced actor had sparked a fan frenzy.Before that...The words 'passionate kiss' emblazoned on the paper nearly knocked the assistant off his feet."We've pulled enough stories for her. She can handle this one," Tyler declared, massaging his temples to ease the headache."How come you're never angry about these incidents?" the assistant ventured to ask, noting the lack of expected rage."It's because they're all just her way of getting a rise out of me," he explained.Sweat trickled down the assistant's forehead. Some

Zyra stood there with a lump in her throat. The man before her had steered the conversation to a point of no return, and she was too mortified to object.With a heavy heart, she nodded in agreement. "Oh yes, Mrs. Stone, the sweet and sour grilled fish is really tasty..."She bit back her frustration.Shylah's face lit up with a warm smile as she took Zyra's hand. "I just knew you'd love that flavor. Tyler mentioned you have a sweet tooth. I figured being in the film industry would make you strict about desserts, but then I thought, what's the harm? A young woman should enjoy her food."Tears welled up in Zyra's eyes. Shylah had always treated her like her own, showering her with genuine affection. That was why Zyra could not say no to her, and why she found herself there with Tyler."Mrs. Stone, I'm not a kid anymore. I'm twenty-five," Zyra protested gently.Shylah rolled her eyes and gave her hand a reassuring pat. "Nonsense, you're still so young. At twenty-five, you're definit

There was no way Tyler would come to her rescue, not after the way she would lashed out at him. Anyone else would have been long gone by then.Zyra's heart sank, and she scrambled for another plan.The man's slimy hand was about to graze her cheek when Zyra, fighting back nausea, sank her teeth into his flesh."Ah! You little demon, biting me? I'm going to make you regret that!"He was livid, trying to rip her shirt open. However, before he could get any further, his hand was suddenly twisted behind him and he yelped in agony.The man raised his head, his eyes locking with Tyler's, who had just twisted his wrist with an iron grip.A flicker of fear crossed his mind. "Who are you, and why are you sticking your nose in where it doesn't belong?"Tyler's gaze shifted to Zyra, trembling in the corner, and a sharp pang hit his chest. His expression turned icy."You mess with my girl, and you're asking why I'm involved?"The man's pride was wounded, but he yelled anyway, "Your girl?!

Zyra gave a disinterested hum, not bothering to respond.Colt, reading her expression, figured she was not in any real trouble and let out a quiet sigh of relief."What made you think of coming to this matchmaking thing? Did you lose feelings for him?"The thought sparked a flicker of hope in Colt. However, the woman in front of him turned away, clearly not on the same page as him."You think I wanted to be here? If my parents hadn't been on my case, I wouldn't have bothered showing up. It's just for show, not like I'm here to actually get hitched."Colt looked disappointed. "Well, that works for me. I'm just here for show too. If there's nothing else, maybe we should get out of here."Zyra nodded. "Let's sneak out before they come back."Colt let out a dismissive snort, "Why the hurry? Can't stand another minute with me?""That's not it. Didn't you say we're just here for show? I thought you'd be eager to leave."Zyra got to her feet and, seeing him still sitting, tugged at h
