The atmosphere in the study was distinctly different; it was a strictly formal place that felt suffocating.
Though Justin Kingston was young, his aura of authority exceeded that of an eighty-year-old man.
He sat at the desk, his gaze deep as he looked at her.
Mia Lane walked towards him.
He handed over a contract, "Take a look at this."
Mia paused and reached out to take it. The content was simple and clear. She looked through it from start to finish.
"If you don’t have any issues, you can sign it. Ten billion without a cent less," Justin’s voice was deep and magnetic.
Mia was not surprised, as the renowned potion master Cora Yates was worth that price.
This ten billion was enough to signify his trust in her.
"Give the pen!" she extended her hand.
Justin handed over the fountain pen.
Mia took it and signed her na next to Justin’s personal seal, making the contract official.
"My mother doesn’t like you," he asked bluntly, "How do you plan to approach her?"
"Of course, I have my ways."
Justin asked no more, choosing to trust her.
Mia watched him get up and leave the study, feeling heavy-hearted, not wanting to disappoint him, yet knowing this matter was not easy.
Justin entered the bathroom to shower.
He thought about Anton Miller breaking into the entertainnt industry. His presence was everywhere in the news, and Justin’s breath turned cold, intrigued to see what tricks this guy could pull!
Clearwater Bay.
Tonight’s dinner was extraordinarily sumptuous. Kristina Kingston did not ask the children what they wanted to eat but directly arranged for the top chefs to prepare the most exquisite and delicious dishes.
Mary, looking at the table full of delicacies, was both delighted and surprised. It had been a long ti since the villa had such a grand event.
Foie gras, abalone, erald lobsters, lion’s head atballs, Dongpo pork, mushroom soup...
Wasn’t this table of food worth at least a million?
Madam really adored these twin siblings!
The children were eating happily, chatting as they ate, faces full of smiles and mouths greasy with food.
Mary noticed that Madam’s face was serene and not the least bit displeased. Typically, at the Kingston family als, not a single sound was allowed.
Today, Madam even sat across from them, serving them dishes personally, "If you like it, eat more. Don’t hold back, treat this as your ho."
"Thank you, Grandma!"
"Grandma, you should eat too!"
The children’s lodic voices were like the sound of silver bells, making the scene exceptionally warm.
Mary, too, displayed a heartfelt smile; it had been a long ti since she saw Madam so happy!
Night.
A well-known bar.
Pulsating music, constantly changing lights, aromatic wine, and in the middle of the dance floor, young girls performing pole dancing...
The noisy atmosphere proclaid the start of nightlife.
Anton Miller was hosting tonight, inviting all forr club mbers, about thirty people were partying here.
"Boss, you’re a hit!" Team mber A put his arm around his shoulder, swaying his wine glass while twisting to the music, "You’ll dominate the entertainnt industry in no ti! Becoming a top male star is just around the corner!"
"Stop it! What are you saying? Our boss already enjoys A-list treatnt! Haven’t you seen the Weibo followers? They’re increasing by the billions! All that traffic equals money!"
"Boss, the promotional posters weren’t photoshopped at all, you’re handsoly real! I’ve stared at them countless tis!"
"Boss, I think you and Grace make a great pair, interested in winning her over?"
"If our boss wants soone, there’s no woman he can’t get! Haha! Right?"
Anton Miller sat at the bar, listening to these brutally honest words. He smirked mischievously, directly pouring wine down his throat with a bottle, "Drink up tonight, it’s on ! No need to hold back."
"Boss, look who ca over there?" soone whispered to him.
Anton Miller turned to look. A blonde girl in a crop top was standing there, looking aggrieved.
