A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband
Chapter 208

Chapter 208

“Hooray for Mr. Anderson! Here’s to his longevity!”

“Dang! Vincent is so picky! I want to join ACE membership!”

“I’d like to extend my membership for another two years! Mr. Anderson is dependable!”

The guests were deeply touched and thrilled.

Yoona got a text right away from the sales department informing her that tonight’s turnover was the highest since the store. opened!

Although Vincent was wealthy and affluent, he was not a mindless rich second-generation.

He invited all the guests tonight, seemingly being a spendthrift, but in reality, he gained a wave of favorability, boosting ACE’s popularity and stimulating customer consumption.

It’s like achieving three goals with one shot!

“Too, too wasteful…” Annie lowered her long eyelashes and puckered her lips in embarrassment.

“What? You feel sorry for spending my money?” Vincent raised his eyebrows playfully.

Tonight was a tiring night for the people, all for her sake.

He was happy in it, and hadn’t been so happy for a long time.

He couldn’t decide whether he was attempting to please or gratify himself by being kind to the girl.

Annie blinked her eyes, which were filled with tears, and nodded softly.

“Tsk, interesting. I, Vincent, have so many women who are all eager for me to spend money on them. You actually feel sorry for me.”

Vincent leaned against the railing and turned to glance at her flushed face. His sexy, thin lips revealed a deep and charming smile. “What, you still want to help me with finances in the future? Little one?”

He was drunk right now, and his speech was a bit more muddled.

They stood side-by-side, close together.

Annie didn’t quite comprehend the significance of his words, yet she could unmistakably feel it. The man’s warm breath on the tips of her red ears was both comforting and ticklish, causing her heart to flutter involuntarily and her body to shyly shrug.

“I’m not a bank. I don’t want to be involved in managing your money.”

“It’s not only the bank that can assist me in managing the money sis of vegetable flower.”

Vincent’s thin lips parted, and his chest rose and fell steadily. Reaching out, he tenderly lifted her silky long hair, feeling a deep love for it that he could not bear to part with.

“Why didn’t you put your hair up again? I thought your hairstyle was really nice.”

Annie’s heart was pierced with a stab of pain, and she averted her gaze, her eyes reddening.

“I’m not a fan of vegetables.”

The man was taken aback. “You don’t like it?”

As his fingers ran through her hair like water, his heart felt a sudden emptiness.

“I may not be fond of veggies and blooms, but you can consider me the ‘sis of vegetable flower’. You came to my rescue and aided me in replaceing the bear tonight, so…”

“I am thankful to you,” Annie said, her beautiful face raised and her bright eyes fixed on him. “You may do anything you

want to me.”

Anything… anything?

Vincent’s heart surged with a dark fire for no apparent reason, and his breathing grew shallow.

Had it been any other woman, he would have thought this to be a blatant indication of lust.

When Annie spoke, it was like a clear spring trickle that flowed clean and pure into his heart.

“Mr. Anderson.”

At that moment, a waiter entered from outside, carrying a tray with a bottle of freshly uncorked red wine and two glasses. “This is a fine vintage that Young Master Fawn brought back from France. Please, do enjoy it with the lady.”

Vincent nodded, and the waiter placed the wine on the table before departing, shutting the door firmly behind him.

Upon seeing the wine, Annie licked her lips and her eyes sparkled with delight!

“Do you want to drink together?” Vincent perceived her musings and inquired with a grin.

“Can I?” Annie’s eyes were wide and filled with despair.

“It’s obvious that you enjoy imbibing; otherwise, the last time…”]

Vincent attempted to say something, but then recalled the events of that night in the bushes. He swallowed hard, trying to suppress the warmth that was rising within him.

Consequently, his voice had not yet diminished.

Annie had already picked up the decanter and poured the wine into the expensive glass. She picked it up and first sniffed it with her small nose, looking like a young cultivator.

Then, she swayed the glass and carefully observed the color of the wine. She was focused like a professional Wine Master.

Finally, she took a sip and savored the wine patiently, feeling the nuances of the wine in her mouth.

“It’s White Jade Wine House’s year 1998 MerLOT. It’s a White House specialty. The color is a deep purple. The texture is pure, concentrated, and full. The fragrance contains the complicated taste of black fruits, caramel, Mocha and vanilla. A single sip left a trace of sourness…”

Vincent was dumbfounded to replace that this sister of vegetable flower not only knew how to draw, but also had a knack for tasting wine!

He had been driving nightclub for many years. In France and Italy, he had his own private winery, and his taste level was far inferior to Annie.

Sis of the vegetable flower, was very introverted.

Zoey and Skyler had lost interest in playing; instead, they wanted to break into Vincent’s private room and give Annie, that little bitch, a good beating.

“Wu… Zoey, take a look at my words!”

Skyler hid in the bathroom, sobbing with mucus and tears, and half of her false eyelashes had come off. “Annie is seeing your brother!”

“You just witnessed it! He rallied so many people just to locate a teddy bear for her! When has your brother ever been so devoted and attentive to a woman?”

“He obviously has a sister like you, but he still wants to be good to other people’s sisters… Zoey, I don’t know what you are thinking. I can’t bear it if you want me! It’s too sullen!”

She feigned misery to stir up Zoey’s emotions.

However, she did not realise that she need not have stoked the fire any further. Zoey’s anger was more intense than a blazing mountain. “How can my elder brother be like this? He has never treated me with such disregard since we were children!”

In the

past, whenever she would throw her expensive toys around, she would cry and complain that she couldn’t replace them, yet Vincent would always buy her a new one, even more expensive and better than the last, without a word.

She had initially believed that her brother had bestowed upon her a special favor from Vincent.

In comparison to the favor Annie had been given, it was like the difference between heaven and earth!

Vincent, being so lazy and troublesome, was willing to go to great lengths to replace a broken toy for Annie, even if it meant subverting the entire ACE!

Thinking about it breaks my heart; I can’t even bring myself to contemplate it.

“At home, my younger brother also looks out for that little girl. Now, Mr. Anderson has taken a liking to her and is doting on her… If this continues, not only will I be forgotten, but my position will be taken away too!”

“You want to challenge me? Have you considered the two pieces of garbage on her body?”

Zoey’s anger was so intense that her eyes were almost popping out of her head. Unable to take it any longer, he finally stormed out of the door.

No sooner had she left than Skyler’s tears ceased and her eyes glinted with cold mockery.

She hummed a tune and looked at the mirror, putting back her fake eyelashes.

Annie and Vincent had already imbibed three rounds.

They were both inebriated.

Usually Annie was like a blockhead, but after drinking the wine, it seemed as if her meridians had opened up. Her two red lips, moistened by the wine, kept opening and closing, and the words flowed so quickly and densely that it was like a barrage.

Vincent, however, enjoyed listening to her nonsensical chatter, which had a calming effect on him for a prolonged period.

“Did you know? Women are naturally inclined to be passionate!”

Annie blushed and took two more sips. “There’s an X chromosome that can heighten color perception and whiteness. Since women have more X chromosomes than men, they’re especially sensitive to color!”

“Oh? Really?”

Vincent smiled at her, his gaze lingering on her slightly pouting pink lips before shifting to her smooth, charming feet, which had been concealed beneath her simple sports shoes.

His eyes thickened even more, prompting him to rub them.

“Furthermore, it’s said that women are composed of water. In fact, the amount of water in a man’s body is 60 percent of his weight! A woman’s body weight is even greater than that!”

As Annie spoke, her excitement grew. It had been a while since she had conversed with people in this way.

Suddenly, the lights in the room went out.

“Eh?”

“Brother Anderson,” Annie asked in a daze, “is there a power outage in your shop?”

Oh!

The strong scent of hormones enveloped her soft body, causing her to lose her breath. All the blood in her body rushed to her heart, which began to beat rapidly.

Vincent knelt down, hooking his finger around her chin, and kissed her passionately.

The scent of alcohol burning their nostrils, their lips and teeth entwined in a passionate embrace.

The ethereal music started.

A brilliant flash of light illuminated the man’s half-closed phoenix eyes, which shone like stars as they closed in on Annie.

It was charming and dangerous.
