Chapter 461 Tension Under the Table

A red handprint appeared on Zachary's thigh. He looked at it and commented, "Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed today."Turning on the bed was all it took to look at Zachary, but Joey did not want to look at him. Therefore, she turned her back on him.Melvin asked the staff members on the cruise ship to move the dining table, chairs, and some decorations outdoors.Zachary went to help out, too. Joey could hear him talking to Melvin. She was curious about their conversation but couldn't hear a thing. The loud sea breeze drowned out their voices.Once everything was set up, Zachary called Joey over."Come and look at the menu."Joey got up slowly. When she thought that Zachary might have been the one who bought the dress, it felt iffy.She sat down by the dining table and leafed through the menu. When she saw the five-digit price on the menu, she almost thought she was hallucinating.She counted again. Indeed, everything on the menu cost five figures.Joey lost her appet

Chapter 462 Quid Pro Quo

Zachary continued, "300 million dollars at least. Not 300 million dollars at most."Melvin looked at Joey glumly, "I only have 50 million dollars. That's all my savings, ma'am."Joey hated Zachary's fearmongering. She glared at him and said, "Can you stop scaring people?""I'm serious. Pixie is a ten-year-old brand, and it used to be famous. Without that much money, you can't acquire it." Zachary then took a sip of his wine.Joey frowned and said nothing."Must you acquire Pixie?" Melvin inquired meekly.If he gave all his money to Joey, he'd be penniless. While he could still feed himself, he wouldn't have any money left to spend on his games.He loved to whale on his games. If he no longer had the funds to sustain his hobby, his friends would mock him."Yes. Emmen needs its own brand, but releasing one is tough. Pixie is well-known among consumers. If we can acquire it under the current circumstances, it'd be a very advantageous move," explained Joey.Pixie had close to no n

Chapter 463 Crush

"Of course. I bought many of them and gave them to my friends. Don't worry. I earned a lot from the dividends." Melvin was like a rich but simple-minded man.Joey patted his shoulder. "Thank you for your contribution."That said, she wasn't sure how much she earned from the game. She rarely checked the account records. It was mostly handled by Selena."No need to thank me. Now do you see why I spend so much on games?" said Melvin smugly.Joey did not know what to say. It seemed like the rich's hobby was to spend their money.She lay down and decided to take a nap while listening to the sound of the waves.Melvin leaned back against the sunbed and continued, "Why don't you play with me? I can top up some money for you. It'll be cool. Other players will idolize you."Joey grunted, "I don't have time for it.""I'll run your account for you. You're a famous figure. If you stream, you might earn a lot of money, or even attract sponsorships. I know a streamer who…"As he chirped ent

Chapter 464 Hard to Impress

The chatroom's content infuriated him. "Hey! I'm not a simp. Don't call me a simp."The comments didn't stop."Pfft, from the way you buzz around them like a busy bee, you're a simp alright.""Mhm. You were their background noise. We donated money to your stream just so that you can become their simps. LOL."Melvin scowled. "I told you that's not true. Besides, Zachary and Joey are not dating. There's nothing on the news. Mind your words now.""Many celebrities are dating in secret, too," said Zachary nonchalantly on the side.Melvin took a deep breath. "I'll stream later, guys. Bye.""Look at him. He's having a meltdown. Why don't you fight Zachary over Joey?"Melvin went offline, unable to deal with the live chat anymore.Fighting Zachary over Joey? Zachary could very well raze his garage to the ground. Moreover, he wasn't into Joey, anyway.Melvin told his teammates that he was going offline before glaring at Zachary."Are you sure she won't be mad that you said that? The

Chapter 465 Plans Within Plans

When Joey returned to her office, she was surprised to find Selena there. Her brows raised in amusement as she sneaked toward her friend.Selena was busy working before her computer. She heard someone come in but had assumed that it was Stacy.She was startled when Joey appeared brusquely on her desk. "Jesus! You freaked me out. Did you only travel for two days?""Because I have things to do tomorrow." Joey stared at her friend, intrigued, and switched the topic. "What have you done with Hanson when I was gone?""Just sex. Reproduction. Baby-making," answered Selena frankly.Joey almost choked on her saliva. "Did you use protection?""I took pills. Don't worry." Selena grinned. "He was a late bloomer.""Spare me the details. That said, isn't it too risky to do that? What if you can't get rid of him when you want to break up?"Joey was traumatized by her experience with Zachary. Had she not stood her ground firmly, Zachary's love-bombing would have swept her off her feet."Hmm…

Chapter 466 Not Her Fault

Joey made no response. She'd know more details once she met with Pixie tomorrow with Zachary.Noticing Joey's silence, Selena uttered, "Let's wait until we get the precise figures. Aren't we supposed to have dinner at your place? Don't talk about work."Hanson smirked. "Okay, no work talk."As the group drove and stopped before a traffic light, Joey suddenly said, "I told Selena to install cameras in Yvonne's room. I thought about it and realized it isn't right."Hanson was stunned by the sudden reveal.Selena looked at Joey incredulously. She couldn't believe that her friend would take the blame for her. Biting her lips, she shot Joey a quizzical look.Hanson fell silent. When the light turned green, he asked Joey, "Have you always held prejudices against Yvonne?""If she hadn't done all those things to get on my bad side, I wouldn't have held any grudges against her. Can you remove the cameras in her room?"Also, I won't join you guys for dinner. Just drop me off somewhere,"

Chapter 467 Seasoned Businessman

Hanson's lips tucked into a smirk. "I'm that good in your eyes, huh?""But of course. You're my boyfriend, after all, and I have high standards," replied Selena with a smile."Who do you like more, Harrison or me?"The fact that she had dated Harrison still bothered him.The intimate moment was ruined by Hanson's untimely question.Selena shoved him away and protested, "You aren't supposed to mention exes during the honeymoon period.""I don't have any exes. You are and will be my only one," said Hanson glumly.Selena glanced at him. "Why? Do you think I did you wrong?""No. I merely think Harrison is not a good fit for you, and it bothers me that you were with him before," added Hanson.Selena licked her lips and whispered into his ears. "He's young, handsome, and virile."Hanson blushed as he tilted his head to look at Selena.She raised her brows and continued, "I'm very open when it comes to my sex life. If it bothers you, there's nothing much I can do.""I'm fine with

Chapter 468 Emergency

Alas, life was often treacherous. Right when Joey was busy typing the proposal to convince Harrison in the meeting tomorrow, Zachary texted her and told her to go online to look at the news.Joey went on her social media and found several topics trending.#SelenaBuggedYvonnesRoom #YvonnesRoomFootageLeakedJoey clicked on the link.In the footage, Yvonne was sleeping in her room. Her sleeping gown slowly receded as she tossed and turned, revealing her thighs.If Yvonne had done this on purpose, it meant she was hellbent on destroying Emmen.Before she could finish watching the video, Zachary called. Joey picked up right away."Will the news affect our plans tomorrow?" Joey cut to the chase.Zachary knew it served no purpose to lambast Selena's reckless action.Sternly, he uttered, "The Fulhams asked Pixie to decide tonight. Selena committed a crime, and they are not going to let her go unpunished. Emmen's reputation will be affected, too.""I know. Everything is in the footage

Chapter 469 Waiting for You Downstairs

Once they left Pixie, Zachary asked Joey, "How much money have you prepared?""200 million dollars," answered Joey.Zachary nodded. "Once the precise sum is out, we'll see if we need more.""Thank you so much for today."Joey had doubted him yesterday, but today, she felt she owed him a heartfelt thank you. She was simply too inexperienced in the playing field."It's too early to thank me. As for Selena's problem, you'll have to wait and see how Yvonne reacts to it." Zachary then looked at his watch. "It's getting late. Go back and rest up. We have work to do tomorrow at 5:00 am.""Okay." Joey was utterly in the passive role. Dismayed, she had to acknowledge that Zachary was way more competent than her.Zachary could guess what she was thinking and comforted, "If Selena had not done what she did, your plan would have gone smoothly."Joey glanced at him. "You don't have to say that. I'm not as shrewd as you. It's the truth."But she would work harder. When similar things happen

Chapter 470 Miracle Maker

A prestigious family was trying to destroy Emmen. Caught in the crossfire, Pixie was destined to be cannon fodder. Only a few major shareholders still clung to the pipedream of a possible comeback.A lot of money had been spent on Pixie in past years. Most shareholders were at their wit's end."I'll sell it," exclaimed a white-haired shareholder. He then turned to his peers. "We get the money and move on from Pixie."Everyone agreed, so Joey gave Harrison the contract. "Take a look. If you're fine with everything, you can sign it."Harrison accepted the document and studied it. Several other shareholders stood next to him and read through it, too. Once they were done, Harrison went to make a copy of the contract."Ms. Linton, do you think there's still hope for Pixie?" The white-haired shareholder seized the momentary pause and posed a question."I believe so, and I will work for it," said Joey confidently.The shareholders had been nurturing the brand for a decade. Suffice to s
