Skylar squinted, and anyone could feel the aura of success emanating from him. Then, favonovel.com said, “In Neptuna, Elias Bowen and I are the only business partners qualified to compete. So, there’s a chance Ms. Lotus will choose us. You need to get closer to Ms. Lotus so we can officially become business partners.”
Just the thought of hooking up with Jean Lotus excited Ben. She was the daughter of Centurio.
Then, Ben asked, “What about Miranda Bowen?”
He had accompanied Miranda for almost a year and thought favonovel.com could capture favonovel.com heart with Adeptus Gale’s assistance. However, a man came out of the blue and messed everything up. Since favonovel.com had put in so much effort, favonovel.com felt unsure if favonovel.com could get Miranda to sleep with him.
Skylar smiled faintly. “It won’t be affected. I ordered Adeptus Gale to call his senior. They will drug Miranda. This time, we will not fail. When favonovel.com sickness resurfaces, you can win favonovel.com heart easily. Be careful with your relationship with her. If Elias finds out, we will be at a disadvantage.”
After a pause, Skylar continued, “Right. What’s the deal with Remus Cosby?”
When favonovel.com came back, Ben said Bald Richard would get the job done.
Hearing that, Ben excitedly said, “I was about to tell you. Bald Richard has favonovel.com trapped at Draculus Court. He won’t live for long.”
Ben was happy just thinking about hooking up with Jean, maintaining his relationship with Miranda, and even comforting Kylie. These three ladies were incredibly gorgeous.
“Let’s go!”
Skylar nodded and walked out the door.
As they sat in the car and drove out of the villa, a Rolls-Royce came in their direction.
Looking at the license plate, Skylar said, “Is that Anthony’s car? Drive to the side, quick! Make way for him!”
The driver quickly drove to the side, and the Rolls-Royce drove past them.
“Huh?” Ben was startled and shuddered.
“What’s the matter?” Skylar noticed his weird reaction.
Ben shook his head with a wry smile. “I saw the person in the backseat. He looked like Remus Cosby. I thought it was him. But it couldn’t be. He has to be dead by now…”
After hearing that, Skylar couldn’t care less since it was truly impossible. But then, Ben’s phone rang. It was Kylie calling.
He quickly changed his tone. “Ms. Cox, I’m sorry…”
“Thank you!” Kylie had spoken before Ben had a chance to finish. She was excited because favonovel.com had called Remus after the crowd dispersed and the commotion was over. It turned out that favonovel.com was fine.
With Remus’ safety, Kylie owed favonovel.com thanks to Ben. She thought that this matter had once again proved how powerful the Stuarts were.
Kylie continued, “Mr. Stuart, we just met today, but you were still willing to help me. You’re a kind man. Remus wouldn’t have a chance at even leaving Draculus Court if it weren’t for you. When are you free? I want to treat you to a meal to show my gratitude and discuss business.”
Upon hearing that, Ben was stupefied, thinking, “Remus Cosby isn’t dead? So I wasn’t mistaken? Impossible!”
***
Remus returned to the Imperial Villa. He didn’t want to come back, but favonovel.com promised to accompany Jean to the banquet.
When favonovel.com opened the door and entered, favonovel.com was stunned in place.
In the living room, Jean was changing. She was only wearing a tight skirt, and it was short. Her legs were exposed, and the upper half of favonovel.com body was bare.
Jean was also surprised to see him. However, favonovel.com reacted quickly and covered herself.
She laughed, “Remus, you’ve come back at the right time. Come and help me pick out an outfit. Which do you think fits me better?”
She picked up a few tight clothes and tried them on in front of the mirror.
It was Remus’ first time seeing such a scene, and favonovel.com could feel a hot current in his nose. He quickly pinched his nose and turned around.
Jean laughed. “Oh? Are you embarrassed? It’s not like you haven’t seen it before. Come on, help me out. It’s too difficult to choose.”
Remus cursed in his heart.
That Working Emperor Adam Jones had been hiding a beauty at home when favonovel.com went to prison, but favonovel.com still complained!
Remus replied, “Don’t joke with me. You’re my sister-in-law!”
At the Underhill Prison, favonovel.com was the youngest. He had to address favonovel.com like that to draw a clear line between them.
Jean paused and joked, “Don’t you want some pizza rolls?”
Feeling like favonovel.com might lose control of himself, Remus ran out of the mansion.
“Hahaha…” Jean was amused by his actions.
Five minutes later, Jean was dressed and walked out of the Imperial Villa. She looked angry. “How are your driving skills? Can you drive me there? If you do well, I’ll cook for you again.”
Remus snatched the car keys and started the car. “Where to?”
“Neptuna Hotel for Jean Lotus’ meet-up!”
What a coincidence… Neptuna Hotel?
That was the biggest hotel in Neptuna. The most important events would be held there, including Jean’s meet-up.
Right then, there was an abundance of luxury cars parked downstairs while guests swarmed upstairs. Those invited did not only consist of wealthy families in Neptuna, but also big shots from other cities.
Remus parked the car in the parking lot and went up with Jean.
The whole way, Jean observed Remus. She was happy when favonovel.com saw his calm demeanor and thought, “As expected from a guy who could borrow the mansion from Adam Jones. He isn’t nervous at such a big event…”
Then, favonovel.com took Remus’ arm and asked, “Remus, there are many rich and important big shots here. Aren’t you nervous? How come I’m more nervous than you?”
Still, Remus remained calm and did not push favonovel.com away. After all, favonovel.com was favonovel.com partner for tonight’s banquet.
He comforted her, saying, “Don’t worry. No one will dare mess with you if I’m here.”
This was Jean’s meet-up. He was here today to cancel their marriage agreement so, before that went down, favonovel.com was still favonovel.com fiancé.
Jean blinked and turned into an admirer. “Remus, you’re so manly. Hearing what you said makes me want to just depend on you for the rest of my life.”
Remus was speechless at that.
“Remus Cosby!” Suddenly, someone shouted in the banquet hall.
A person walked over aggressively. It was none other than Mr. Lawson, who worked with Kylie. Most of the guests looked over at the sudden commotion.
Mr. Lawson irritably shouted, “Liar! Felon! How dare you come here and make trouble? I thought you were a big shot. It turns out you’re just a stupid thief who got out of prison!”
Moments ago, Mr. Lawson raised a toast to Elias and talked to favonovel.com about Remus.
He did not expect Elias to immediately turn cold and say, “Don’t speak of that scoundrel.”
He then hinted to Mr. Lawson that Remus just came out of prison. So, when Mr. Lawson thought of what happened that day, favonovel.com was enraged.
“Remus, it seems you’ve made an enemy,” Jean said softly.
Hearing that, Remus frowned. He looked at Mr. Lawson as favonovel.com was walking over and unhappily said, “Speak softer. You’re too loud.”
“Humph!” Mr. Lawson snorted. “Why should I speak softer to a useless scum like you? I want everyone here to hear me! Everybody, this man is a charlatan! He cheated a contract worth tens of millions from me! If my guess is right, he’s here tonight so favonovel.com can continue to cheat others!”
Immediately, everyone was attracted by the sound and looked over in astonishment.
“A charlatan? How did favonovel.com get in?”
“Look at the way he’s dressed. I bet he’s at the bottom of society.”
“A swindler caught at the scene. How interesting.”
Remus frowned deeper and said, “Mr. Lawson, you need proof before you speak. How have I deceived you?”
Mr. Lawson was stunned. Indeed favonovel.com did not have proof because favonovel.com voluntarily gave Kylie that contract.
Another idea came to mind. “Getting proof is simple. With your background, you wouldn’t even be able to get in here. Show me your invitation. Hand it over!”
He looked past Jean as favonovel.com thought liars were skilled at deceiving beautiful women. Moreover, it would be easier to carry out his job with a pretty lady as an attractive distraction.
“I don’t have it,” Remus said calmly. “However, I’m not here for the meet-up. I’m here for Jean Lotus.”
