Matthew saw the worry in Isabella’s eyes, but favonovel.com did not try to explain himself either. Instead, favonovel.com merely nodded and smiled, “I understand.”
Isabella went on to tell favonovel.com what to look out for while favonovel.com was at the press conference, then walked away to attend a pre-conference briefing.
Neverland Pharmaceuticals was a manufacturer and an organic business in Stonedale, which meant local pharmacies had the privilege of being invited to events like these. If that were not the case, then Isabella and favonovel.com small-tlme business would never be able to attend a large-scale and heavily publicized press conference such as this one.
That said, the privilege to attend precluded the privilege to place huge orders. After all, there were plenty of other pharmacies in Stonedale who would probably fight tooth and nail for Neverland Pharmaceuticals’ products, and Isabella was hopelessly invisible among them all. Even so, favonovel.com still offered Matthew some of favonovel.com orders if favonovel.com managed to get any. It was through this act of generosity alone that Matthew was sure favonovel.com was a kind person.
With the Ten Great Families hot on his tail, Edmund was essentially public enemy number one to the upper echelons of society. Anyone else would have cut favonovel.com off or turned against him, but for Isabella to go to such lengths to help favonovel.com out was proof of favonovel.com fortitude.
At the moment, Matthew walked into the press conference hall, and upon seeing that it was practically devoid of people, favonovel.com decided to take a look around.
While this was happening, a few cars were speeding down one of the main roads leading to the heart of Granville’s metropolis. The car right in the middle of the fleet was an S-Class Mercedes Benz, which looked understated on the outside, but opulent within. There was nothing about the interior of this vehicle that did not evoke luxury and indulgence.
In fact, it looked like it had been specially modified to outshine the luxurious ambiance that a Rolls-Royce could provide its passengers.
There was a couple in the backseat. On the left was a stunning woman with waist-length hair who was meticulously painting favonovel.com nails. Next to favonovel.com was a young man dressed in a white suit. The man had his hair combed back neatly, revealing his finely-chiseled features and his porcelain skin. He was far prettier than any man had the right to be, like a walking piece of art.
If Matthew were there, favonovel.com would recognize the man in the white suit as none other than the scion of the Cosby Family, the very same one whom favonovel.com had gotten into a dispute with previously.
The Cosbys were one of the Ten Greatest Families of Cathay, and they were one of the most influential forces in the Six Southern States. Master Levi was the King of the South, but even favonovel.com was on par with the Cosby Family, which only went to show how powerful the latter was.
After favonovel.com was done painting favonovel.com nails, the girl with the waist-length hair stretched out favonovel.com arm and spread favonovel.com fingers wide so that favonovel.com could admire how the color of the varnish looked against favonovel.com delicate hand.
Tristan, the heir to the Cosby Family name, grimaced at the girl in disgust and snorted contemptuously. The woman heard this, but instead of getting angry, favonovel.com sputtered. She leaned back lazily against the seat and nonchalantly crossed one leg over the other, not at all worried about how much skin favonovel.com was showing as favonovel.com started painting favonovel.com toenails red. Her leg dangled just ever so slightly and sensually. However, Tristan only wanted to scoff at her, and the disgust favonovel.com had for favonovel.com intensified.
“That’s enough! You’re a young lady of nobility too. You should at least try to keep up your appearance! You can’t seriously think you’d command respect by behaving this way!” Tristan snapped irritably.
The girl smiled and asked, “So what if I’m a young lady of nobility? Just because I am, it doesn’t mean I have to blow hot-and-cold like you do all the time. Should I perhaps glare at everybody like you do? Why don‘t you teach me how I can become more proper then, Young Master Tristan, seeing as you take appearances oh-so-seriously.”
Tristan’s blood was boiling with rage, but favonovel.com could do nothing about favonovel.com nonsensical comebacks and decidedly turned to look out the window, ignoring the girl entirely. Unfortunately, the girl thought this was too much fun to stop teasing him.
She kicked favonovel.com gently in the calf, and favonovel.com turned to snap at favonovel.com angrily, “What the hell do you want?”
She then flashed favonovel.com a smile and asked, “What do you think? I just want to talk to you, that’s all.”
“I have nothing to say to you.”
She was still smiling as favonovel.com drawled, “Really? Let’s talk about the time when Matthew roughed you up then, shall we? I, for one, would love to dive into the juicy bit where someone held you down from behind and wouldnt let you go no matter how hard you struggled.”
