"Married?"
Lawson Rivers froze for two seconds, his eyes narrowing slightly as he muttered hoarsely, "She's married, yet she dares to go out and play around with other men. Echo isn't just unique in her music; her personality is certainly something else."
"But..."
The assistant held out an iPad, using two fingers to zoom in on Echo's wedding photo.
More precisely, he zoomed in on the head of the man in the photo.
"Mr. Rivers, why do I get the feeling that that man looks awfully similar to Echo's husband?"
"?"
Lawson Rivers grabbed the iPad. Staring at the man in the photo, his mouth couldn't help but twitch violently.
Similar?
That man literally was Echo's husband!
So, just a moment ago, he had been trying to steal Echo away from her actual husband?
Lawson Rivers laughed helplessly. He had almost become the other man.

The two of them didn't go to any coffee shop.
Charlotte stumbled the whole way as Anthony dragged her straight back to his private villa.
By the time she finally registered what was happening, she had already been tossed onto the soft mattress.
The very next second.
The man hovered over her, his long, distinctly jointed fingers pinning her hands down. His pitch-black eyes stared at her intently, a thoroughly dangerous smirk hanging on his lips.
"Mrs. Blair is incredibly charming. If I hadn't shown up, I wonder how many other men would have lined up to confess their love."
"..."
Charlotte raised her eyebrows, eyeing him casually with a thoroughly unbothered expression. "Your acting skills are quite impressive yourself. You almost had me completely fooled."
Lying to her about being in Cabinda, only to show up in Apex and put on such a dramatic performance.
Hmph.
"Thank you for the compliment."
Anthony chuckled, lowering his head slightly so his nose brushed affectionately against the girl's. He asked in a husky whisper, "Did you miss me?"
"A little bit, I guess."
But he had genuinely exhausted himself lately.
If they went straight back, he would inevitably have to take care of the two chubby bunnies again.
Letting him relax for a bit wasn't a bad idea.
"Then let's play for two days."
Charlotte agreed. She checked the time and murmured, "I haven't even told Shirley and the others that I'm back here. You rest first; I'm going to make a call."
She had barely started to sit up when she was immediately yanked back down.
"Stay with me." Anthony lay down, pulling the girl securely into his arms and holding her tight. "I want to sleep holding you."
"..."
Charlotte licked her dry lips. In the end, she couldn't bear to push him away, nor could she be bothered to get up and grab her phone.
She figured she'd just tell them after he woke up.
Little did she know, they both ended up sleeping straight through the day.
By the time Kenneth and the others went looking for her, all they heard was: Echo went off to get coffee and get intimate with an Eastern man.
Kenneth's mind practically buzzed: Was the old fox being cheated on?
