Young Master Firth, an unexpected player at the pool table!
Upon seeing him, Nancy, like a bunny, hopped out from behind Luna and Director Grant, rushing to his side with joy. "Honey."
She wrapped her arm around Charlie's, her amber eyes sparkling with excitement. The onlookers couldn't help but radiate envy.
The women envied her for having such a powerful and influential husband as Charlie, while the men envied Charlie for having such a talented and beautiful wife.
The couple, handsomely matched in talent and looks, were a sight to behold, captivating everyone present.
Luna was happy. From Charlie's attitude towards Nancy, she knew he was fond of her. And she could tell from the way Nancy looked at Charlie that the affection was mutual.
They love each other, that is the best thing for Luna.
And who was Vivian? She was no match for others in terms of talent or beauty and even fell short when it came to winning a man's heart.
Yet she always thought of herself as the best, a delusion that made her no better than trash in Luna's eyes.
Charlie pulled Nancy closer, his deep eyes coldly piercing through the crowd. "What's so commendable about bullying a woman? I challenge you. Name your terms."
Samuel didn't recognize Charlie, but judging by the reactions of others, Charlie was no ordinary man And anyone called "honey" by Vivian could hardly be a simpleton...
Charlie's assertiveness extinguished the fire in Samuel's heart. He put down his pool cue, "Fine since you're not professional, it would seem like I am bullying you if we play."
Charlie sneered, "Just admit you're scared. Stop making excuses like you're some professional."
