Swoosh!Claire, clad in a bikini, dived into the pool like a mermaid, her jade-white legs alternately kicking the water. It was exceptionally accurate. Alex stood by the door, watching her for half a minute with an indifferent look on his face. When it was confirmed she wasn’t going to leave the water any time soon, he quietly retreated.In a flash, he entered the room that Claire had chosen. On the spacious Simmons mattress were some of Clare’s clothes, thrown randomly on it.His sharp eyes glanced around lightning fast, searching for the pearl necklace. He finally found it under a pair of black undergarments.Naturally, he was looking for the necklace to study the secrets the pale, golden pearl held.If those complicated blood-runic scriptures had indeed been laid down by William, then it could be inferred that his father was by no means the ordinary person he had portrayed himself to be, and a mere car accident wouldn’t have been enough to kill him.Then, the culprit r
Alex gave his mother, Brittany a call.After some trivial chats about daily lives, Alex asked, “Mom, do you still remember the pearl necklace that Dad gave me as a greeting gift when I went to Assex Villa to meet Dorothy’s mother for the first time?”Brittany said, “Of course I do. Your father also strung a precious golden pearl in it. The whole necklace is worth at least eight million dollars.”Having said that, she got angry. “Our family has treated your mother-in-law so well, but I couldn’t believe that she’s such a snob! Son, if you’re being mistreated at Assex Villa, then you should really, just divorce! It’s better to just get the pain over with, rather than prolong the agony!”“Don’t worry, Mom. She’s much better now after that incident… Besides, you think she could really do anything to me with my capabilities? If she were to really irritate me, I’ll just give her a big tight slap.”“Tsk, who would believe you!”“Why not? I had beaten her up last time, and Dorothy didn’t
Alex was stunned.From the way Zendaya and himself had met eyes earlier, it was clear that she had been waiting for him. She couldn’t help frowning subtly at the appearance of the young man, but she still put on a smile and said, “Don’t misunderstand, Alan. This is my friend.”The young man named Alan pursed his lips with a disdainful glint in his eyes. He said, “Zendaya, today is an important time for us to duet our performance. Some unimportant individuals shouldn’t just come over and bother you, right? Get him to leave first!”Alan was almost 5.74 feet tall, and his appearance was quite charming and handsome.Alex could tell that Alan had an unusual sort of feelings toward Zendaya, given how different his gaze was when he looked at her. There was nothing wrong with handsome men who loved beautiful women.The main point here was that Alex was over 5.9 feet tall, his facial features and skin quality were far superior than his. Especially, Alex had a peculiar temperament on hi
Bunty was in charge of Zendaya’s endorsement contracts. Since she said so, even Zendaya was helpless.She pulled Alex aside and said, “Alex, I’ll discuss this with Bunty after this.”Alex shook his head. “Forget about it, it’s fine. Since you’re in a tight spot, I can find another artist to try it out… Since you’re busy, I’ll take my leave first. I won’t disturb you guys' preparation for the concert.”“Wait!”Zendaya held him back again.Alan was very upset with the fact that she had held Alex twice now, and he almost let a string of curses slip out.When did Zendaya ever take the initiative to pull on a man before?Besides, this man was already married.“Since you’ve already come, Alex, why don’t you just sit and have a cup of tea while listening to my new song? You can also help me check if there’s anything wrong.”Alan finally couldn’t hold himself back. “Does he even understand music?”“My songs are made for my fans. Music is understood by everyone, so naturally he could
Alex’s calm reply made Alan frown wildly. The failures of over a dozen times had already made him very irritable. And, now this random guy actually stood up to challenge his piano skills? How unfathomable!Slam!After pressing both his hands hard on the keys of the valuable piano, he stood up violently. “Fine, come on then. I want to see if you can really play piano!”Bunty instantly frowned. “Mr. Rockefeller, can you not stir up trouble? Alan is the most distinguished piano master in Hong Kong. If he can’t even play it, others would definitely not be able to do so.” Alex walked over. “Either way, he isn’t in good shape right now. He should just take a break and have a change of pace to change his mood.”Zendaya’s eyes moved lightly, with a bright smile on her face. “You can also play piano, Alex?”Alex smiled and said, “When I was young, my mother forced me to learn piano until I was tenth grade. I haven’t touched it for many years now, so I might be rusty. I’ll try it first!
“Monochrome reincarnation, three lives, three world…”Alex’s mental power became more prominent when Zendaya’s singing started, and his fingers moved with the rhythm, naturally and unforced.He closed his eyes, and Zendaya also closed hers. The singing accompanied by the piano sounds were like two lively jumping spirits that were holding hands as they danced.Hum!Their mental powers resonated, and their very souls trembled.With their eyes closed, they seemed to still see each other, just like the interpretation of the song. Searching in the ten miles of peach blossoms in the three lives and three worlds after reincarnation; looking at each other across the galaxy, reunion after a long time, like a moth drawn to a fire. Even though they knew that the future was uncertain, they didn’t hesitate to jump right into the sea of flames, like a phoenix nirvana, waiting for the reincarnation of next life.The sound of Alex’s piano playing seemed to break through many layers of shackles
Alex didn’t really want to show his face so publicly if possible. However, for the sake of the endorsement of Lush Comestics’s products and to help his mother, he finally nodded.There were some other reasons among them.Facing Zendaya’s eager gaze, he couldn’t bear to refuse her, as if he seemed to not want to see her unhappy at all. It was exactly the same as the obsession feeling between the hero and heroine over three lives in the background story of the song.***After leaving Zendaya’s villa, Alex gave a call to his mother immediately to report the good news. When Brittany heard this, she jumped up happily. “Really? That’s great, Son! I didn’t expect you to have such a wide network of contacts now, and you’re even acquainted with Zendaya. With her joining us, I believe our Lush Cosmetics will definitely become ultra-popular.”After a pause, she then asked, “By the way, how much does Zendaya’s endorsement fee cost? It should be quite expensive, right? We have about twenty m
The initial strong scent of medicine in the air had also disappeared completely. “Is it done?” Waltz asked. “Almost.”Alex picked up a bowl of concoction that had been prepared earlier. It was one that he had prepared and boiled at Ganoderma today.Using a brush, he gently brushed on the off white medicinal clay.Three minutes later, Alex prodded Michelle in her acupoint to wake her up.Michelle held her head. “Who knocked me out just now?”Waltz giggled. “You still care about who knocked you out? Or would you rather hurry and wash your face to see if that nasty thing is still on your face?”“Huh?”After being reminded by Waltz, Michelle immediately reached up to touch her face. She could only feel a layer of hard mud on her face.However, the pain that she had felt before had completely vanished.“Hurry, go to the bathroom and wash it off!” Alex said.“Alright.”Michelle rushed into the bathroom, washing her face hurriedly. Then, she raised her head and looked at hersel
