Larissa turned around abruptly. She squinted her eyes."If I hear one more word come out of that mouth, I swear I'll make the Husley family taste bankruptcy again."Rachel had targeted the Huxley family once, almost causing them to go fully bankrupt. If it weren't for Henry begging the Sawyer family for help, the Huxley family would have been done for.Larissa had never shown such ferocity before. Henry choked back his nerves. "I didn't mean that. I was just worried that you might get deceived since you're inexperienced."Henry softened his tone. "Larissa, I'm here to buy gemstones. Why don't you get that kid a plane ticket home and let his parents look after him? I'll take you to explore the gemstone marketplace. I heard that you like gemstone betting so you'll find it interesting," he added.Larissa raised an eyebrow, faking a smile. "You'll go with me?"Henry thought Larissa was moved by his invitation. "Larissa, the fact that we can meet here is fate. We should cheris

Larissa and Ambrose headed to the hotel lobby to check out. "Ross, wait for me here," Larissa instructed, gesturing to the lounge. She wanted him to keep an eye on their luggage while she handled the check-out process at the front desk.At this moment, Henry walked over. His eyes fell on Ambrose who was patiently waiting for Larissa. Ambrose tilted his head slightly, a pair of composed black eyes coldly fixated on Henry. It was a gaze not typical for a child his age.Henry held a stern expression as he walked towards Ambrose. The two engaged in a silent standoff. Henry was taken aback when he sensed a threatening aura from Ambrose.Ambrose stared at Henry silently. He didn't move a muscle. It was Henry who couldn't handle the pressure and started the conversation. "What's your relationship with Larissa?"Ambrose was devoid of the cute demeanor he showed Larissa. Instead, he exuded an air of dominance. "Family ties," he replied casually with an indifferent smile planted on

The host raised the microphone to the front of Cameron.He questioned loudly, "Mr. Cameron, who do you think will be the winner of this competition? Would it be your robot or Star's?" Cameron answered smoothly, "I'm more confident in the capabilities of my robot." Then, the host raised his microphone to the front of Finn."Star, as the dark horse of the robotics competition, what do you think will be the result of this competition?" Finn gave Cameron a scornful look. With determination, he answered, "I will be the winner!"The look on Cameron's face turned bad instantly. His expression was one of fury and disdain. The host pressed on, "How are you so confident?" Finn stared at MAVIS, which was on stage. He replied calmly, "Because Mavis is the perfect AI!"MAVIS received his command. It extended its mechanical arms and made a heart-shaped gesture at the audience. The audience began to shout and cheer."Hurry up and begin the competition!""Yes, yes, yes! Start the com

Out on the balcony, Finn yawned. He was still unaware of what had happened. He had curled up into a ball and was having a good night's sleep. Whatever he was dreaming about made him let out a silly smile on his face. He mumbled repeatedly, "Rissa … Rissa …""Idiot!" A low, manly voice could be heard coming from the room. Larissa was still dreaming. Subconsciously, she reached out. To her left, she dreamt that she was stroking Finn's head to comfort him. To her right, she was patting Ambrose who was in her arms. However, when she extended her arm, she came in contact with a firm and muscular chest. Habitually, she continued caressing downward and she felt some sturdy eight-pack abs. Larissa was bewildered. Her hand just felt something muscular. Her hand paused. Then, a warm and strong hand grabbed her hand tightly. By her ear, she heard the sound of someone's breath quickening. What was that firm thing? Larissa was trying to think while she was still dreaming in a blur. T

Ambrose buried his face in Larissa's neck. He looked very defeated. This made Larissa feel for him. "Mr. Huxley, you purchased this gemstone for 20 thousand dollars, and a blue fire opal was discovered within. How about I compensate you with double? I'll pay you 40 thousand dollars." How could he, Henry, take her money? He had followed her all the way because he wanted to court her. He was only here to catch her attention. The reason he chose to buy this gemstone was because he wanted to make her happy. He wanted to give it to her as a gift. Henry waved his hand helplessly. "Forget it. This was meant to be gifted to you in the first place anyway." "Since you do not wish to be compensated, let's move on from this incident then. It seems like you and Ross don't get along very well. He became unhappy after seeing you. I don't want to see him upset. Please don't follow us anymore!"Upon saying that, Larissa turned around resolutely to leave with Ambrose in tow. She didn't show a
