Addicted To You

Chapter 56

The malnourished woman rushed toward Yeri, she was just a couple steps away when she b.u.mped on what seemed like a steel wall, she stumbled backward and fell to her b.u.t.t.

"who-"

Everyone present stared at the tall guy with an astounded expression.

where did this guy came from?

why didn"t they notice him arrived?

The man who just appeared out of nowhere gaze at the malnourished woman murderously, she was now shaking in fear unable to stand.

Yeri retained her pa.s.sive expression but she was also surprised herself, as expected of Shin"s top bodyguards. If she remembered correctly the man"s codename is brain.

Another man appeared donning an all black-suit, he collected the shopping bags and bowed to Yeri as if waiting for her instructions.

Yeri stood up and turned towards the two shop a.s.sistants, "thank you." she then gestured to "eyes" who is holding her shopping bags that it"s ok to leave.

"your welcome ms. zhi! please come again" the shop a.s.sistant enthusiastically replied.

After Yeri left, the onlookers parted like there"s no commotion that just happened ignoring the odd couple.

But the scary guy didn"t mind at all, his gaze never left Yeri till she"s gone, for someone with bodyguards despite the malls strict entry only means she isn"t just another wealthy woman. A subtle smile plastered his lips but quickly faded when she heard the woman called his name.

"mr.miles..." the woman faintly called him.

Of course that isn"t his real name, the dumb woman ruined his plan, a cold murderous glint flashed in her eyes.

The man casually walked out ignoring the woman"s plead.

"mr.miles?" the malnourished woman looked troubled, what about her clothes? its still unpaid.

The shop a.s.sistant saw the man leaving and angrily carry the shopping bags, "tsk! what a waste of time! acting all high and mighty when you don"t even have a cent"

The malnourished woman glared at the a.s.sistant but seeing her benefactor leaving she have no choice but to follow.

Just when both the shop a.s.sistants thought it was all over, there manager terribly scolded them after hearing what happened, they couldn"t understand why the manager looked extremely agitated...who wouldn"t? customers with VIP accounts under undisclosed status is highly confidential that its only known to manager"s, whoever is the person behind the youngmiss, his certain it isn"t someone they can afford to offend but who would have thought out of all places, ms.zhi was insulted by someone unknown at there store?!

He can only hope, ms.zhi would not take it to heart considering she"s a fan of the clothing brand.

2 hours before the banquet

Calin w.a.n.g spend her day pampering herself and getting ready for tonight"s grand event.

Although the banquet is meant for the elder madam of Keir, she can"t helped feeling exhilarated, this is her night as well! she will finally be in the arms of her beloved.


She already played a lot of scenes that will transpired tonight, like a girl hopelessly dreaming for a fairytale love story.

will Shin hug her once they see each other? or go beyond that and kiss her?!

will he get down on his knees and propose to her?

them dancing together and hear each others sweet nothings...

Since Shin didn"t contact her at all, Calin can only a.s.sume he has prepared a surprise for her.

As the minutes quickly ticked by, Calin is now getting ready for her final touch.

There were at least 8 people present helping her for tonight "s preparation that anyone would think it"s her wedding day.

Calin is donning an off-shoulder mermaid white sequin lace dress with diamond beads all over, her hair is styled into a messy low-side bun with waves and a luminous dewy make-up giving her the image of a pure G.o.ddess.

She then decorated herself with large diamond jewelries hanging from her ears, a fringe diamond necklace and bracelet.

Calin looked so dazzling and sparkling she can even rival a chandelier, the only thing she didn"t have is a ring, antic.i.p.ating that Shin might give her one later.

At Helena Keir"s huge garden manor, servants were busy going back and forth in preparation for the banquet.

As the elder madam of the no.1 family in Sin city, such a big event is like a gathering of all the prominent families and outstanding figures in the society.

In spite of the high expectations and hopes to be a part of this celebration, Helena Keir is a private person and only invited those who were a family friend, the friends or celebrities related to her family friend, long time business partners and investors and favorable people for the Keir"s.

There have been a few media reporters and paparazzis who manage to enter palazzo archon however they can only stay outside the manors gate.

After an hour, luxurious vehicles from guests were starting to arrive.
