Chapter 13 Prince Charming. Couldn't Avoid the Enemy
The black Mercedes pulled up in front of Cecilia. Chloe Perez got out of the car and hugged Cecilia.Then, she looked at Sean with confused eyes and frowned, "Cecilia, is that your newly engagedhusband?"
"Yes."
Cecilia nodded.
After looking at Sean a few times, Chloe Perez could hardly conceal her contempt and disgust. Butin front of Cecilia, she laughed against her will, "He's a big, beefy man with a good build. I heard allabout the engagement party. He stood up for you and Phyllis. He's a man of courage andcommitment.”
"Thanks for the compliment.”
Sean took it in stride.
Chloe rolled her eyes, her disdain even more pronounced. She thought to herself, "I'm trying tocomfort Cecilia. Can't you hear me?" She looked away from Sean and explained, "I was supposed togo to your engagement party that morning. But Hudson asked me to have dinner with him, so I wasdelayed. You won't mind, will you?"
"Of course not."
Cecilia shook her head.
"Look, it was Hudson's gift to me. Isn't it beautiful?"
Chloe pointed to the Cartier pendant on her neck and said proudly, "I looked it up online, and it'sworth 150 grand.”
"So expensive?”
Cecilia was surprised. She looked closely at it and praised, "It's beautiful. It goes with your skin tone,and in that dress, you're like a fairy now."
"You have a good eye! Worthy of being my best friend!" Chloe was even more proud.
Sean shook his head.
Chloe's features were fine, but she was nothing compared to Cecilia. And she was heavily made upand was wearing a red dress with an open neckline. When talking to Cecilia, she deliberately movedher hips in a sexy but sultry way.
Fairy?
It was nice of Cecilia to say that kind of humbug.
She didn't deserve to be called a fairy.
"Chloe."
Suddenly, the driver's door was opened, and Hudson Scott, who had been sitting in the car talkingon the phone just now, came out and walked directly to Chloe and Cecilia. He held out his hand toCecilia in a gentlemanly way and smiled, "Nice to meet you, Miss Moore."
"Nice to meet you, too."
Cecilia politely shook his hand. Although Hudson Scott did a good job of hiding it, he looked atCecilia with a certain amount of awe and salivation in his eyes.
"Cecilia, let me introduce.”
Chloe did not notice that. She turned to Hudson Scott's arm, her breast against the arm of Hudson,showing an intimate with him, "My prince Charming, Hudson Scott, son of the Scott family south oftown. General manager of Brilliant Pictures, one of Hilshire's top 10 outstanding young men.Member of the Provincial Martial Arts Association and vice president of the City Martial ArtsAssociation..."
When talking about Hudson Scott, Chloe's chin rose slightly and she was in a state of ecstasy."That's really impressive.”
Even Cecilia had to admit that Hudson Scott was great, with her best wishes, "You're lucky that youfound such a great guy, and as your best friend, I'm really happy for you. I wish you both a long andhappy life."
"Well, yeah."
Chloe smirked, then turned around and said, "But Cecilia, don't be too sad. You are just engaged.Anyway, you didn't get married yet. Hudson has a lot of friends. If I have a chance in the future, I willintroduce you to them. Maybe one of them will be your Prince Charming."
Her voice was very loud, and she didn't want to hide it from Sean at all.
Hudson Scott didn't even look at Sean at all. He followed Chloe's words and said, "To tell you thetruth, our company is going to cooperate with the Moore Group on a recent project. In addition tohaving dinner with Chloe, I also want to accompany my father to discuss the details of ourcooperation with Mr. Moore. My dad would still be at the Moore Group..."
"Oh?"
Cecilia was stunned.
Hudson Scott laughed, "I heard that this engagement was your grandfather's idea, and if MissCecilia has some bad feelings and wants to break off the engagement, maybe I can help.”
"Yes. Yes."
Chloe nodded and said, "No matter how partial your grandfather is to your cousin, he will listen tothe Scott family. If Hudson could put in a good word for you, you'd probably win him over.”
"I'll introduce you to Hudson's friends and see who can bully you in the future!”
There was no denying that Chloe had Cecilia's best interests at heart.
But Cecilia looked over her shoulder at Sean, hesitated for a moment, and shook her head, "Forgetit. Every man has his destiny, and I'm not as blessed as you. As long as Phyllis is with me and she cangrow up carefree, I'll be happy.”
"But..."
"It's getting late. Let's go."
Chloe tried to persuade Cecilia again, but Cecilia didn't give her the chance. After all, it was cruel forSean to say that in front of him.
Sean, however, didn't take those words to heart.
In his position, it was normal to be disliked and despised. If Chloe set him up with Cecilia, she'd beinsane.
What he cared about was Hudson Scott's identity!
The son of the Scott family south of town?
The general manager of Brilliant Pictures?
What a coincidence!
One couldn't avoid his enemy.
Sean remembered going back to Hilshire with his mother five years ago. Due to the Mason family ofthe Capital City's reputation, many families in Hilshire welcomed them and hosted a banquet forhim and his mother in the attempt to establish a relationship with the Mason family of the CapitalCity.
Especially the ones on the south side.
His mother's family was on the South side of the city, so the south side families were the mostattentive.
On the night of Sean's accident, he was carried to a hotel room where he slept with Cecilia after afew too many drinks.
There were three heads of families at the banquet. They were the Miller family, the Taylor family, andthe Scott family.
And Connor Scott, head of the Scott Family, was Hudson Scott's father.
Today was the first time that Sean and Hudson Scott met. Originally, he didn't know Sean, and Seandidn't know him. But Connor Scott was the only wealthy Scott on the south side of town. N&PMedia, the predecessor of Brilliant Pictures, was owned by Sean's mother's family!
N&P represented Sean's mother, Nicola Wright, and his father, Parker Mason.
Sean was set up at a booze party and jailed! His mother Nicola Wright returned to the Capital City,knelt in front of the Mason family for three days and nights, and then died! What was once a Wrightfamily property was now a company owned by the Scott family!
Who would believe that the Scott family didn't collude with the Mason family?
"I don't know how grandma and grandpa are doing now. Mother died tragically, and the propertywas taken from them. They're old. It must have been a hard five years for them...”
Sean sat in the Mercedes and glanced at Hudson Scott, who was driving. A cold, piercing chill creptover him, "Looks like I'll have to get south of town as soon as possible. If the Scott family wereinvolved in this conspiracy, they would have to pay for it!"
Ricky Mall. The sixth floor.
Women go shopping for clothes, shoes, cosmetics. Cecilia and Chloe led the way, almost shop byshop. They did not replace anything suitable in the first five or six stores until Cecilia entered a women'sclothing store and saw a white dress hanging in the middle of the store.
"It's so beautiful..."
Cecilia put her hand on the white dress and touched it. Her eyes were shining and it was obviousthat she loved it.
She was talking to herself very quietly, but Sean heard her.
Sean followed and said with a smile, "Buy it if you like."
“No, I can't.”
Cecilia glared at Sean, pointed to the price tag, and shook her head, "You see, 28, 888. It's tooexpensive. I can't afford it right now."
Matthew Moore was disabled, Marcia retired, and Phyllis was still young. Cecilia was the sole bread-earner for her family of four. When she worked at the Moore Group, she didn't earn much. NowIsaac had kicked him out of the Moore Group and she was unemployed. Although she said shewould get another job, she was under great pressure.
She had to tighten her belt.
How could she possibly have spare money for all these fancy clothes?
"It's okay. I'll buy it for you."
Sean's heart twitched and he felt even more sorry for Cecilia. Chloe had already done a lot ofshopping. But Cecilia didn't buy anything, saying she "didn't like it."
He took out his bank card and was about to pay, but just at that moment, a salesgirl in the storesuddenly came over and patted away Cecilia's right hand, which was touching the white dress, andsaid coldly, "If you don't buy it, don't touch it. Can you afford to pay for it?"
