Chapter 327

作者: River Fish
Evan didn't want to turn into one of those guys. He pulled himself together before stepping out of the room.

Gideon was having a drink with Phoebe right by his side. The sight of that made the storm that Evan had just managed to calm stir up again. He couldn't look at them anymore and turned away.

As he did, his eyes landed on Aaron.

Aaron spotted him too and instinctively avoided him, but then thought better of it because it was too embarrassing. He shrugged and walked over to Evan. "I've got plenty of male fans, but I don't swing that way. Don't get any ideas."

Evan was already in a foul mood, and this idiot was making things worse. He actually laughed from sheer irritation. He raised a brow and asked, "Do your fans know you're this dumb?"

Aaron blinked in confusion. "What's that supposed to mean? Don't take it out on me just because you can't land the guy you want."

Evan had no words. He walked to the bar, picked up a glass, and stared at Phoebe through the crowd. He downed hi

  • Better Brother, Better Life   Chapter 350

    In just this short time together, all the headaches Connor had caused faded completely from Phoebe's mind. She was fully immersed in the simple happiness of the moment.She stepped in to smooth things over. "Alexandra, just take the food."Truth be told, watching Alexandra and Simon bicker actually made her pretty happy, even if she felt a little bad for Alexandra. It was a tiny twinge of guilt, at least.Simon chimed in, "Yeah, it's just some food. Don't fuss over it."He held the plate out to her and urged, "Come on, I washed my hands before dinner. Don't turn me down."Alexandra rolled her eyes but still took the plate. Naturally, it was only because Phoebe was watching.Phoebe was satisfied. Simon really had helped out that night, so she turned to him and said, "Sometimes you're kind of a handful, but other times you feel like the sun—warm, full of energy, and always so passionate."Even a stagnant life would ripple because of him.Her sudden compliment caught Simon complet

    Gideon narrowed his eyes. How could this be the same thing? The plate of food that was supposed to be his had been snatched away.Alexandra was equally pissed. Did she look happy about this? That plate of food was the one Phoebe had gotten for her!Simon picked up his untouched plate, piled food on it, and handed it to Alexandra. "There. This one's yours."She and Phoebe were both rendered speechless. At the same time, Phoebe felt like she'd just watched a skit. She also realized that Simon was a total drama queen.It was just food. Why did he have to make it so complicated?Alexandra was an expert at socializing, so she naturally knew how to read the room. Simon clearly wasn't thrilled that Phoebe had served her, so he'd gone out of his way to make sure that he could do it instead.Alexandra wasn't arrogant enough to assume Simon was interested in her, but his actions were pretty blatant. Even with the detour, his intentions were obvious.The night they'd unexpectedly slept tog

    Simon muttered, "How stingy."He was just messing around, of course. He wasn't actually mad, and he definitely wasn't about to haul the food back to his place. Still, he eyed the plate for a second, pulled out his phone, and snapped a quick photo. He quietly noted the brand.Phoebe pulled out all the chairs. "Come on, everyone. Let's sit down for the meal."Gideon naturally took the seat right next to her.Normally, Simon liked sitting beside him, but that night he chose the spot directly across from him.The table was a vintage round one. There were five of them, so Alexandra was left with only two options. Both meant sitting next to Simon, and neither sounded appealing.She shot Simon a look. He talked and acted like a total nuisance, but in all seriousness, he was really good-looking. In the candlelight, he had a decadent, player-like vibe that was ridiculously charming. It was unfortunate that he had a mouth on him. If he just kept quiet, his appeal would probably double.Of

    Simon wandered around the first-floor living room, poking into every corner as if he wanted to memorize the layout. Now and then, he would snap a photo, claiming that he was simply gathering home decor inspiration. He'd just moved into his new place, so it still didn't feel like a real home yet.Alexandra pulled out some scented candles she'd been saving for ages. She lit them and set them on the vintage dining table, then grabbed taper candles.She placed them in elegant holders in the center of the table and lit them. The flickering candlelight instantly made everything feel warm and cozy.Her house was full of fresh flowers and plants. She grabbed a pair of scissors and quickly arranged a gorgeous floral centerpiece, popping it into a sleek, modern vase and setting it in one corner of the table.Finally, she laid out five sets of cutlery and plates. Under each white napkin, she tucked a tiny sprig of greenery. The crisp white and green looked stunning together.With just those

    Simon turned back around and looked at Alexandra with eager eyes. "I didn't know you were so warm and welcoming, Ms. Cooper. I live right next door, so if I drop by unannounced, will you treat me as enthusiastically as you do Gideon?"Alexandra gnashed her teeth. She really wanted to smack him across the face, damn it. He had zero shame whatsoever!It was the first time Phoebe had seen Alexandra so completely stumped. She stared blankly at her and Simon for a second before stepping in and stopping him from taking things further."You're the one who loves parties and excitement. We're all together tonight, and Alexandra's breaking out the good wine. Why don't you grab some snacks or something?" She had to give him a task, or all that restless energy would just keep going into teasing Alexandra.Simon was amused to hear that. "Since when have you gotten into bossing me around, Phoebe?""We're all usually so busy and rarely get to hang out like this," she said. "I'm making good on wh

  • Better Brother, Better Life   Chapter 345

    Just then, Gideon's voice cut through. "Come on in."Alexandra thought she was hearing things. Her head snapped up, and her jaw dropped when she saw who it was."Holy crap! Why is the invincible, untouchable Gideon in my house?" she thought.She panicked a little. "Phoebe, why didn't you tell me sooner?"If she'd known, she wouldn't have lingered in the garden for so long. She would have rushed inside to play hostess!"I was just about to." Phoebe glanced at Gideon. Maybe because others were around, the memory of him hugging her and holding her hand suddenly flashed through her mind. She felt a little embarrassed.After all, she had invited Gideon to move in with her, but she hadn't prepared herself to explain it to Alexandra. She instinctively scooted closer to Alexandra, feeling diffident.Gideon's gaze drifted casually over their joined hands, then just as casually moved away. His face remained as cool and impassive as ever.Alexandra felt a chill from his presence for a sec
