Bellamy didn't mean to blame Adam, but his tone was sincere, "I know, your love for Rory was not deep since she had died after you got married for only three months... But the Hsu family is noble and has always enjoyed a good reputation in Ice city. The marriage between our two families is well-known, and our interests are closely related. Although Rory has passed away for more than two years, in the eyes of others, you are still the son-in-law of the Hsu family!"
Adam said in a low voice, "Yeah."
Just as Adam came out of the study, his cell phone in his trouser pocket vibrated.
He took out the phone, and when he saw the caller's name on the screen, his expression changed slightly.
Anthea's young and delicate face appeared in his mind, whose sparkling eyes were shining brightly. When she smiled, her two small dimples appeared on her face, which made her face so bright that it could drive away all annoyances.
When she called him, her voice was soft.
Like a feather, it flew over his heart, leaving ripples.
Adam thought about the night when they were in the small glass box on the Ferris Wheel. When he opened his eyes, he saw her face right before him as her sweet breath entangled with his...
Adam's chest heaved up and down, his eyes looking gloomy.
As soon as Wilson finished a meeting in the company, he came downstairs and saw Adam standing before Bellamy's study with his mobile phone in his hand.
Adam was looking at the screen but didn't have any intention to pick it up for a long while.
Wilson went over and asked in confusion, "Adam, who is calling? Why don't you answer it?"
Upon hearing the voice, Adam knew it was Wilson asking. At present, there were only two of them at home. Their youngest brother, Simon, was still abroad learning medicine.
After turning over his hand to cover the phone, he said lightly, "No one."
However, Wilson had keen eyes. He lifted his glasses, which were inlaid with platinum, and asked, "Is that your niece who you met recently?"
When Carter went to Chin's Mansion to deliver some documents, he told Wilson about Anthea.
"Go away," Adam glanced at Wilson and said.
Wilson raised his eyebrows and said, "I was only asking! She is your niece, not your girlfriend!"
Seeing that Adam looked unwilling to talk about this anymore, Wilson couldn't help changing the topic, "Adam, what did dad talk to you about?"
"It's about the affairs in the army," Adam answered.
As Adam's brother, Wilson noticed that his tone sounded strange, so he asked, "Is that all?"
Adam did not answer. He took out a cigarette box from his trouser pocket, picked out a cigarette, and put it in his mouth. After taking a puff of smoke, he asked in a low voice, "Wilson, do you think we can still do whatever we want?"
Wilson froze for a moment, laughed in a self-deprecating way, and said, "Adam, we all know the answer since the day we were born, don't we?"
Adam took a big puff of smoke. Drifting smoke blurred the expression on his face.
Seeing that Adam did not answer her call, Anthea bit her lips tightly.
The music in the KTV box had never stopped. Holly, who had just finished a song, pulled Anthea and said, "Anthea, you have been sitting here since you come. Come and sing a song! Which song do you want to sing? I'll order for you!"
They had made an appointment before to celebrate
Alexandra's birthday.
In the evening, the girls had changed their school uniforms into their own clothes. They didn't dare to go to bars again after what happened last time. Therefore, they simply changed into ordinary jeans and t-shirt before they left the school.

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
