nTea lounge
nHunter took off his jacket and threw it on the sofa, yelling furiously. “There isn’t even 300 million dollars in my card?! Are you kidding me?!”
nMr. Hopkins reminded him politely. “Did you forget? Last time you talked back to your father, he froze your funds in a fit of anger.”
n“I talked back to him?” Hunter was so angry that his chest was heaving violently. “I just asked him to call me Big Brother. Was that too much?!”
nYou asked your father to call you Big Brother.
nWasn’t that too much?
nRemembering what had happened just now, Hunter frowned and said coldly, “Why did the little thing come to the banquet dressed like that?”
nMr. Hopkins nodded in agreement. “It was not quite appropriate.”
n“Is this the point?!” Hunter gave Mr. Hopkins a sideways glance. “The point is that the Smiths are not even willing to prepare a dress for her! Even Cinderella has a pair of crystal shoes, and the little thing is more miserable than Cinderella!”
nMr. Hopkins pursed his mouth to stifle a laugh.

nLate at night, Adam sent Claire back to the Smiths’ mansion.
nPhoebe stood in front of the studio’s window, staring at Claire downstairs. Putting her cell phone against her ear, she tentatively asked her. “Ann, you didn’t do anything to her, right?”
nOn the other end of the line, Ann spluttered. “I had planned to teach her a lesson, but it was ruined by Hunter Johnson!”
nPhoebe frowned. “Was he there too?”
n“Yeah! It’s said that he has a brain disease, and it is true! He actually offered to buy my necklace for three hundred million dollars. Was he out of his mind? By the way… you’re engaged to him, aren’t you?”
nThe Smiths hadn’t told others that they planned to make Claire marry Hunter in Phoebe’s place.
n“Hmm…” Phoebe replied perfunctorily.
n“You haven’t met Hunter, have you?”
n“No.” After a pause, Phoebe asked. “Is he good-looking?”
nAnn smiled shyly. “Yes… super handsome!”
nUpon hearing this, Phoebe felt a little uncomfortable.
nBut then she thought that even Ann said that he was out of his mind, so Claire would suffer if she married him.
nLance Middle School.
nJust after the morning class, the classroom was full of yawning mouths.
nThe gossip king suddenly stuck his head from outside the window. “The latest news, there is a new English teacher in our class. He is super hot!”
nHis words instantly caused an uproar.
n“How handsome is he?”
nThe gossip king was shy. “So handsome that even I want to marry him. The charm of a mature man… Help… I simply can’t resist that charm!”
nAll the students laughed out loud.
nThe English class representative raised his hand and said excitedly, “I can prove what he said is true! I saw it with my own eyes when I passed by the principal’s office today. He is tall and handsome and has just returned from abroad. He is 28 years old. And most importantly… he’s single!”
n“Wow!”
nThe girls cheered excitedly.
nThe class bell rang, and everyone looked at the door.
nUnder the expectant stares, a tall and slender figure walked into the classroom.
nThe students stared at the man dumbstruck, and after a second of silence, screams filled the room.
nThe man on the podium, wearing a white shirt with cuffs rolled up, revealed his muscular arm.
nHis hair was jet black, his features were chiseled, and there was a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose.
nGentle, elegant and attractive, he was the kind of man that every girl dreamed of.
nHe picked up the chalk with his long, slender fingers and turned to write on the blackboard. Under the sunshine, through his thin clothes, his sexy body was looming.
nHis back was straight, his waist was narrow and his legs were long.
nHe wrote his name on the blackboard — James Walker.
nLooking at the students, he slightly raised the corners of his lips and cracked a gentle smile.
nThis man was literally every girl’s dream.
