“A girl shouldn’t sleep on the sofa. Sleep on the bed instead, I can sleep on the sofa.”Rosemary’s eyes brightened up immediately. “Thank you so much, Seth. You’re so kind.”Suddenly, she walked up and tiptoed to peck Seth’s face lightly, then quickly ran away.Seth touched his face, which still had her lingering scent, and smiled.Then, they turned off the lights and went to sleep.Under the blanket, Rosemary’s heart was still beating rapidly.She took a crucial step and her mind was filled with various wild thoughts. ‘I’m living together with Seth now. Right?‘I didn’t expect us to progress so quickly. If he can’t hold back and come over in the middle of the night, should I agree to it?’Soon, she fell asleep in this state of confusion.When she woke up at dawn, she found herself alone in the bed.She touched her body and realized that her clothes were still completely intact. ‘Sigh.’ She sighed inwardly. ‘There’s still a long way to go before victory. You have to keep
Before they knew it, they arrived at the venue and the car stopped.The bodyguards took the lead in guarding the surroundings.Some even quickly occupied the higher ground. The security measures could be said to be extremely strict.Then Lily and the others got out of the car.Just as they got out of the car, they saw another convoy coming from a distance.Many bodyguards came out and surrounded a man with a very sinister appearance.Boreal glanced over Seth, Lily, and the others domineeringly.Especially when his gaze fell on Seth, his killing intent was unreserved.However, when his eyes landed on Lily, he had a smile on his face as he said, “Lil, it’s been a while, and you’ve become even more beautiful.”As they were outside, Lily resumed her cold demeanor and did not bother to say anything to Boreal, completely ignoring him.Boreal’s expression did not look too good and he said, “Lil, I’m talking to you. Hasn’t your family taught you any manners?”Seth replied calmly, “M
Mila wore a blue tight-fitting dress today that accentuated her figure, with a slit on the side that went up to her knees. Her hair was tied up, and her face had light makeup on it. She exuded an incredibly captivating charm.She was like a willow in the wind, graceful and charming.Every move she made was breathtakingly beautiful.Haven, on the other hand, wore a white long dress with many beautiful patterns embroidered on it.She looked like a classical lady from ancient times.While her looks were slightly inferior to Mila’s, her temperament was in no way inferior.It was hard to imagine that Haven, who looked like a debutante, was actually a woman who could smash through steel plates with her fists.As soon as the two women appeared, they immediately attracted the attention of all the men present.The sound of men gulping was continuous.Even Boreal and Walter, who had seen so many beautiful women, felt his blood rushing faster. When the two women walked over, all eyes
Not far away from them, Rosemary tugged on Seth’s sleeve and asked, “Should we go help?”Seth shook his head. “No need. Both of them are not ordinary women. They don’t need me to intervene.”He had no intention of playing the hero.He only had a working relationship with Mila, and would not go over to strike up a conversation or anything.“Hold it, what are you people doing?!”A voice full of strength rang out in the distance.All of the bodyguards stopped.When they turned their heads, they saw a strong-looking man in military uniform walking toward them.Lily immediately explained in a low voice, “That’s Lucian Waber, who’ll be responsible for bidding for our weapons supply later.”Walter and Boreal immediately signaled the bodyguards to stop.They greeted Lucian with their sincerest smiles, as they could not afford to offend him.Lucian walked over and scolded them without courtesy, “What are you doing? Don’t you people know where you are right now?!”The two quickly apo
“I can offer 6 billion!”Boreal’s voice was loud, and the moment he opened his mouth, it caused a sensation. This caused the expressions on Lily's and the others’ faces to change drastically.Lily had prepared over 4 billion this round.With Seth, Mila, and the others’ contributions, they only had around 4.8 billion.Before they could even say a word, they were completely crushed by Boreal’s offer.Seeing Lily’s expression, Seth realized something was amiss and cast her a questioning look. “What’s wrong? Is the money not enough?”Seth did not want people like the Lees, who used foul means to get what they wanted, to get involved with the authorities at all costs.If Lily did not have enough money to bid, he might have to use that organization’s money.That organization still had over 10 billion in emergency funds, which he would not use unless absolutely necessary.Lily shook her head, “Fortunately, I was prepared early on. I used some high-quality assets as collateral with
Boreal sneered repeatedly, leering at Seth with mockery on his face. “Does a country bumpkin like you even know what 8 billion means? Do you have that kind of money? You can’t just bid recklessly here!”Walter chimed in with agreement. “There’s no place for small fries like you to speak here. Just shut up!”Seth ignored these two lunatics and showed Lily the payment information on his phone.At first, Lily glanced at it without much interest, but then her eyes widened suddenly. She even leaned in closer to Seth’s phone screen.The string of zeros on it was unbelievable to her.After counting several times to confirm that she had not miscounted, her eyes were filled with countless stars as she looked at Seth. “Sethy, is this for real?”Seth smiled and nodded.In an instant, Lily was filled with energy, sitting up straight again and looking at Lucian. “8 billion!”Lucian glanced over at Seth. Could this young man really have such great capability?He did not say much and simpl
The atmosphere in the room became extremely tense. Boreal and Walter picked up tissues and kept wiping the sweat off their faces.“9.95 billion!”Boreal bid another number and then fixed his eyes on Lily.Lily, on the other hand, looked at Seth and gave him a questioning look.The money being used was all his, so it was up to him to decide whether to continue bidding.Seth nodded at her.Hence, Lily felt relieved and continued to raise the bid.“9.96 billion!”Boreal gritted his teeth and looked at Seth, wanting to tear him apart. ‘How much money did this b*stard give her?!’ They were supposed to have won long ago, but because of Seth, they were now in danger of losing.Only Seth remained calm in the hall.He was sipping tea and playing with his phone, looking extremely relaxed.His attitude made Boreal and Walter nervous, as they had no idea how much money he could still come up with.Seth was deliberately not putting on a show for them; he really was not in any hurry.
In any case, her cousin was also a Lewis.Lily had to tie him up first!When she grew up, either she would snatch Seth away from her cousin or they would share him.Anyway, this was not a big deal in Longford.This country did not implement a monogamous system. Any man with capability had many wives and mistresses.As soon as these words were spoken, Rosemary was first to become nervous.Mila and Haven had already cast their gazes over, and for some reason a little nervousness rose in their hearts, fearing that Seth would agree.Seth smiled and shook his head. “No need.”Lily was somewhat unwilling to let this go, but now was not the time to talk about these things. She would find a chance to call her cousin over and let Seth take a look at her. Perhaps he would change his mind.With the dust settled, there was no reason for Boreal and Walter to stick around.Lucian walked both of them out.Before leaving, they all looked at Seth with an extremely resentful gazes.It was
