"Hello, hello, I'm Adrien, welcome to Nimbus Hotel." Adrien extended his two large palms, his eyes sparkling with mischief as he reached out to shake Emmeline's small hand. Her hand was soft and smooth, and Adrien felt a jolt of electricity run through his body as he held it.

His instincts kicked in, and he found himself leaning toward her.

"Adrien!" Abel and Lizbeth came over together, pulling Adrien away from Emmeline.

Abel wrapped his arm around Emmeline's shoulder and picked up the hand that Adrien had just held, blowing on it as if to brush away any lingering dust.

"Abel," Adrien's eyes sparkled mischievously, "are you sure you're not in love? Who is this beauty? Where did you replace him?"

Abel remained silent, unsure of how to respond.

"Adrien!" Lizbeth stamped her foot in frustration, "I can't believe you're like this. Are you gay or something?"

"What do you mean? How am I gay?" Adrien retorted, "Just look at this face. He's more pretty than you are, Lizbeth. To be honest, when I saw him, my heart skipped a beat!" Lizbeth was so angry that she stomped her foot again, twisted her waist, and stormed off in a huff.

"Adrien," Abel said, "enough joking around. Go after Lizbeth."

Adrien reluctantly tore his gaze away from Emmeline and went off to chase after Lizbeth.

Just then, Benjamin arrived on the scene.

When he saw "Emmett," Benjamin transformed into a full-fledged actor, with an exaggerated expression of awe.

"Oh my, who's this little guy? He's simply stunning!" Benjamin exclaimed.

Abel stepped back, still holding onto Emmeline, and warned Benjamin, "You can talk, but keep your distance."

But Benjamin ignored him and extended his large palm, saying, "Hello there, handsome. I'm Benjamin. It's an honor to meet you."

"Smack!" Abel swatted Benjamin's hand away. "No need to shake hands. I'll introduce you guys."

"I think I can handle it myself," Benjamin replied, smiling slyly at Emmeline. "My name is Benjamin. And what's your name, little brother?"

Emmeline hesitated for a moment before Abel spoke up for her. "He's called Emmett."

"Emmett?" Benjamin repeated. "The unparalleled and handsome young gentleman, Emmett, am I right?"

"You flatter me, Benjamin," Emmeline said, her voice dripping with sweetness.

In her heart, she thought, this guy has some acting skills. I should give him a bonus later.

Benjamin shuddered and said, "You're making me feel tingly. I didn't come here for nothing."

"Benjamin, be serious!" Abel frowned, "Emmett is just a kid. Don't scare him with your lecherous look."

"Come on, Mr. Abel, you're being stingy," Benjamin said, "I just appreciate how good-looking Emmett is. I haven't done anything else."

"Okay, okay," Abel waved his hand, "Let's go to the private room and eat while we talk."

"Sure, let's go to the private room," Benjamin pretended to come over and put his arm around "Emmett's" shoulder, only to be blocked by Abel. At that moment, Adrien had already comforted Lizbeth.

Seizing the opportunity to go to the restroom, Adrien made his way to the Golden Tier VIP room.

Luca and several bodyguards were standing at the entrance, along with Benjamin's security team. The two groups stood there with a solemn air. Feeling intimidated, Adrien didn't dare to approach and just waved at Luca from a distance.

Luca walked over to him. "Mr. Adrien, is there something you need?"

Adrien grabbed Luca by the arm and pulled him around the corner.

"I'm asking you, where did your boss Mr. Abel replace such a beautiful woman? He's making me so envious," Adrien said, rubbing his hands together.

Luca shook his head. He couldn't exactly tell Adrien that "Emmett" was a result of a car accident, could he?

"This kid is really handsome," Adrien continued, "except for that time I saw Emma dressed up like this, he's just as stunning. I've never seen such a beautiful man before, he's making me itch with envy." "Right?" Luca nodded with a silly grin on his face. "When I first saw Emmett, I thought the same thing."

Adrien's eyes suddenly lit up and he blurted out, "Could this kid be Emma? Otherwise, where else would we replace such a beautiful man in this world?"
