Love Began with the First Meeting

Steve lay against on the sofa, saying calmly, "Everyone makes mistakes. It depends on whether you admit it!"

Both Addison and Charlie agreed.

Ignoring Charlie, Steve continued talking to Addison. He stood up after a while. "I will help you get it done... I will take her to Europe later and by the way, I'll get things done there." He paused for a bit before continuing, "Recently, you got the Dragon Empire Group into trouble with the laws."

Addison didn't respond; he only smiled.

"It's fine. Solving problems at one time is your style." Steve smiled, "I should go now. If I don't go, someone would dislike me more."

Charlie rolled his eyes. "Watch your step as you leave! Bye!"

"Don't worry!" Steve had a cold smile on his face, not just for Charlie but for everyone. But he spoke to Charlie directly, "Well. Your girlfriend is nice. Let's have dinner when we're all free."

Upon hearing this, Charlie got angry. "Forget about it! Don't talk or think about my Elsa or..."

"Snitching is a child's trick!" Steve cut him off. He shrugged and gave Charlie a smug smile, uncaring that the man didn't finish speaking. Finally, he turned to Addison. "Bye."

Addison nodded. It was after Steve left that he turned to his brother and opened his mouth to say, "Steve is the death of you. Nothing could frighten you since you were a kid and nobody could get you in trouble, but every time you see Steven he drives you crazy with anger."

Charlie also didn't understand why he couldn't keep calm any time Steve was around. 'Maybe, as you say, he is the death of me.'

"What about the plan?" Addison asked.

Charlie handed it to Addison. "I plan to start developing mobile games after leaving the Flight Media. It can't be a publicity stunt. I have to do something great."

"Have you made a market survey?" Addison asked him. He wasn't going to play favoritism just because this man was his own brother.

"I have." Charlie helped himself to some water. "I won't let any accident happen."

Addison began reading the plan. All things were well-detailed, not only on what the game needed in the former-part, but also on the publicity in the latter-part. As for the game's operating, the present group was so great that he didn't need to worry. "The capital may be not abundant after leaving the Flight Media," Addison looked up at Charlie and reminded him. "Are you sure you can employ Kay?"

"Kay will come because we're friends." A smile started to form on Charlie's face.

However, Addison frowned. "I don't care much about those stars of the Flight Media, but I have heard a lot about her. She loves money very much, so she won't go out of mere friendship."

"That's other people. Kay sees me differently. I am different. Why should she treat me the same as the others?" Charlie turned to his brother and continued naively. "First, I am a Long. She'll consider coming just for this reason. Second, I have sacrificed my reputation to have dinner with her. She'll pay me back."

Listening to his words, Addison just shook his head, unable to find words to say. Charlie would not do useless things while Kay wasn't lost in those who have good appearance. What's more, she was so popular that lots of men chased her, but she ignored them. It was not for the richer person but for her principle. She loved money, only money which belonged to her. She would not think about money which did not belong to her.

Therefore, she often appeared in the reporters of the Media Department of the Flight Media.

However, Addison did not want to know the reason that his brother had for bringing Kay along. Charlie always knew what he was doing. He would take care of Dragon because he had put his heart and soul into it.

Addison signed his name and handed it to Charlie. "Dad and Mom are in XK Intelligence Agency. They wanted me to ask you when you would plan to get engaged."

"They got news so quickly!" Charlie exclaimed.

Addison laughed. "Never doubt XK Intelligence Agency's ability." He stood up and went upstairs. "Are you staying here or going back to the hotel?"

"Of course, the hotel! Only you love to live here." Charlie shrugged and then walked outside.

Addison stopped and looked around, his smile growing bigger and bigger. 'How could Charlie understand my feeling for this place?' he thought. It was here that he knew what his father was, and that he learned that he had to work hard to get what he wanted in life. Here, Papa Brian showed him the direction in his life.

With a grin on his face, Addison made his way upstairs. Opening the first door, he saw the room where he lived when he was five years old. Every time he visited the villa, he would sleep in this room because he believed that the room was another reminder of the purpose that his life had; this room had influenced his whole life.

The next day, it was still very hot in T City.

The hustle and bustle made the Silver Beach busier than usual. There were many people in the early morning. It was decorated with some fancy things. Everyone would become happy listening to the sounds of the sea as they were walking to the banks and running errands all around city. The sounds of joy and laughter from the people would overwhelm the streets.

Rita was surrounded by her good friends; they were at the Silver Beach, where the party's theme colors were white and pink. Naturally, the girls were dressed gracefully and in white and pink in accordance to the theme. The men at the party were treated with a wonderful visual.

"Allen, you are so great," A man with a bear said and cast a glance at Rita. "As your old brother, I really looked down on you before."

"Don't joke about me," Allen said coldly as if he were talking to an enemy rather than a brother. "Compared to those rich girls who you slept with, I am just a child." That man did not get angry. He merely smiled. "But about living off a woman, you are better than me."

"Ross, how could you say that?" Another man's voice boomed. Allen turned in relief and smiled as his father walked over and inserted himself into the conversation. Ross just shrugged and leaned towards Allen. "Do you think you can stand stable in the Shen Family with the help of the Gu Family? Brother, you are so naive." "Am I naive? Let's see it!"

Ross straightened and smiled at Allen's response. Then he turned around to leave. Allen watched him leave, his eyes burning into Ross's back.

Many guests was at the party, and so was the media and the reporters. Because this is the alliance of marriage, lots of guests were celebrities in government and business. This party would blow up on the pages of every newspaper. "Ladies and gentlemen." The host stood in front of the crowd, glancing around at everyone with a smile, "Today is..."

He could not finish his sentence. Suddenly a lot of phones started ringing at the same time. They answered and ran away in a hurry at the same time with their cameras and equipment. Only four or five media were left behind.

This shocked everyone; they didn't know what happened and as they looked at each other to find answers, no one seemed to have any idea.

Sitting on the flower stage, Allen and Rita were confused. Then Rita said to Mia, "Go find out what happened."

Mia left in a hurry and returned in less than five minutes. "Miss," she said to Rita in a serious tone, "the daughter of the Long Family has announced her engagement to Ezra Zhou. That's why everyone went there. The reason for those who stayed here was that their companies sent other reporters to the Long Family."

"What?" Rita was surprised. 'There were two daughters of Long Family. The younger one was in high school now, so it must be Evelyn. What's more, with Ezra, it must be Evelyn.

She must have done this on purpose.'

There were more and more uproar from the guests. When Mia asked the reporters, people sitting in the latter rows heard and spread the news. Rita's and Allen's fathers were shocked at first and decided that this engagement should continue. It made no sense that the party should be cancelled because of the absence of the media.

The party had arranged lots of procedures. They invited the media to propagandize for their interests, so the price of their stocks would rise. However, they could not deal with the situation now.

Long Family was powerful on the Dragon Island. Since T City was just next to the Dragon Island, Long Family also well-reputed here. As a result, it attracted the media's attention.
