Chapter 1426 - 1422: So This Kid Had His Eyes on His Woman All Along
The dinner gathering in the evening was again hosted by Constantine Stewart, in a hotel he had booked entirely.
Chloe Winston took out a long dress from the bottom of her chest. Since she planned to expose her relationship with Charles Taylor in this episode, she had the need to appear on camera, so Kyla Zamora forced her to bring a long dress. Fortunately, it was a conservative design with long sleeves, which was very appropriate.
Chloe Winston changed her clothes and sent a WeChat message to Charles Taylor, saying they would meet in the evening.
Charles Taylor replied with a "good".
Chloe Winston’s impression of Charles Taylor always stayed at the image of the big brother from the Lincoln Family. Thinking that the other party was a long-time famous movie emperor, and considering that she would also continue to develop her career in the entertainment industry, she always felt like she had scored a big bargain.
Arriving at the hotel’s banquet hall, almost everyone had already arrived.
Desmond Wood, with his sharp eyes, waved from afar when he saw Chloe Winston. When she approached, she saw that Daniel had somehow squeezed into this table. Charles Taylor pulled out a seat next to him, smiling warmly, as she sat down and saw Constantine Stewart opposite her.
The man had gone back to change his clothes. The white shirt she had messed up was now replaced with an entirely new set, still looking well-dressed and gentle. Chloe Winston sneered; he probably even took a cold shower just now since his hair still looked damp.
Seeing her look over, Constantine Stewart’s deep, unfathomable gaze turned to her, and he said in a low voice, "Aren’t you hot wearing so much, Chloé?"
Desmond Wood was wearing a sleeveless jersey, and Wendy Starling was also wearing a sleeveless little cocktail dress, yet only she was in a long-sleeve dress that covered her ankles.
"A calm heart keeps cool," Chloe Winston replied indifferently, turning her small face away.
Since she just took a bath, her not-too-short hair was all tucked behind her ears. Without the veil of hair, her delicate and defined features were strikingly beautiful, with pale and translucent skin.
Constantine Stewart’s gaze swept over her face, then to her tightly wrapped body. The long dress hugged her figure perfectly, accentuating her curves. He lowered his gaze with a slight smile, with a glimmer of something in his eyes.
"When will the food be served? I’m starving. After dinner, I still need to go back to grind the game," Desmond Wood complained bitterly at Constantine Stewart, noting that now Chloe had also arrived, it was time to serve the dishes.
Constantine Stewart nodded at his assistant, and Jack Thompson went to urge the hotel to serve the food.
"Didn’t you have enough of the game during the day? Playing again tonight?" Wendy Starling now had a shadow phobia of games.
"I’ve recently gotten hooked on PC games, you know Illusion World, right? It’s a super popular 3.5D game lately. Everyone around me is recommending it to me. Chloe Winston plays it too; she got famous by streaming gameplays," Desmond Wood said eagerly, trying to flatter, "Chloe, are you taking apprentices? Illusion World has already opened a mentoring system. Please take me as your apprentice."
"You’re too dumb, no thanks," Chloe Winston smilingly refused.
"Chloe, you’ve turned bad," Desmond Wood complained tearfully.
"Stop bothering Chloe. She needs to return to school after finishing the show, and soon will be busy acting in films, so she doesn’t have time for games. If you want to play, I can take you," Charles Taylor laughed.
"You play too?" Everyone’s eyes turned sharply towards him.
"Chloe and I have teamed up in the game before," Charles Taylor smiled, giving a fleeting glance at Constantine Stewart.
Constantine Stewart sneered internally. Chloe’s gaming skills were honed under his guidance. Charles Taylor showing off in front of him? Is he out of his mind? He had just embraced and cherished Chloe on the bed earlier; ha! Showing off in front of him?
Chloe Winston looked at Charles Taylor in surprise. In Illusion World, she only ever teamed up with one person, who had a rather vulgar username, "Panties Falling Upstairs", could it be Charles Taylor?
"I’m the one who reminded you about game streaming," Charles Taylor added, confirming his identity.
Chloe Winston gasped, covering her mouth, her eyes shining, "Why didn’t you ever tell me? If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have streamed games, wouldn’t have become popular, and wouldn’t have been invited to this show."
"Wow, the ties between you two are really deep!" Wendy Starling marveled.
For a moment, everyone’s attention was focused on the two of them, while Constantine Stewart’s face turned pale, so was Charles Taylor the second-ranked tipper with that very perverted account?
Constantine Stewart had watched the streaming too, so he naturally knew about the 50-level account that teamed up with Chloe Winston.
So this guy had set his sights on his woman long ago!
"After the program began recording, everyone stopped gaming, so I hadn’t mentioned it," Charles Taylor smiled.
Chloe Winston remembered their accounts being banned, feeling both grateful and guilty towards Charles Taylor, and became even angrier at Constantine Stewart. She suddenly lifted her eyes at him and asked coldly, "Were you the one who banned both our game accounts?"
"Yes, I just did it as a matter of course," Constantine Stewart replied leisurely, with a smile that was somewhat chilly at the corners of his lips. Looks like he shouldn’t have let her go just now; after taking a half-hour cold shower, this ungrateful wolf comes questioning him over another man, huh?
Everyone was all ears. It seemed there was a story?
"Since the old accounts are blocked, let’s just create new ones and not stream, then it should be fine," Charles Taylor didn’t want to anger Constantine Stewart just yet; he only wanted a chance to cultivate feelings with Chloe Winston.
Old Jim warned him that Constantine Stewart is usually very genteel but quite unpredictable. If he flips the table, he doesn’t care about face at all.
Such a person, when mad, is very troublesome and not to be trifled with.
"Illusion World is developed by Constantine Stewart; he can see all the players’ details. If we open small accounts, he will definitely keep banning them," Chloe Winston felt aggravated inside.
"Hahaha, Chloe, you’re usually so smart; how can you be so dumb about the game? Isn’t it easy to borrow IDs? I could lend you a hundred or eighty; let’s see if Constantine Stewart can track them down," Desmond Wood finally got a bout of cleverness and laughed heartily.
Chloe: "..."
Constantine Stewart’s face turned cold, and his gaze at Desmond Wood was as piercing as a knife, making Desmond immediately fall silent, staring down with his nose and his heart.
"Chloe, how did you know Mr. Stewart developed Illusion World?" Wendy Starling hadn’t played the game and quickly did some research on the game’s official site; it didn’t say the game company belonged to Constantine Stewart.
"I developed it myself, and I’ve been playing with Chloe for a year," Constantine Stewart squinted, speaking in a way that astonished everyone.
The man looked as elegant as jade, his smile as warm as spring.
Everyone was dumbfounded; Daniel’s mouth was so wide open it could almost fit an egg.
Whoa, he knew there was something between Mr. Stewart and little Chloe, and indeed there was! It turns out Mr. Stewart had his sights on little Chloe from the very beginning!
No wonder Starshine Media kept investing endlessly, and even when Iris Rob couldn’t record this variety show, Mr. Stewart continued lavishing money on it. He even personally attended filming. Turns out he had ulterior motives all along!
Explosive news, ahhhh.
Chloe Winston’s big black eyes filled with anger as she glared at him, then her wrist was gently pulled by Charles Taylor on one side.
Constantine Stewart perceived their intimate little interaction and immediately his handsome face darkened.
