“Let’s go.”
At this moment, Terrence Lentz suddenly spoke.
Adam asked, “Where are we going?”
“Looking for a cat,” Terrence said.
Adam: .
For a moment, he couldn’t tell if Terrence was joking or serious.
On Saturday, there were a lot of people in the mall.
Terrence’s 6 1 4″ tall frame towered above the crowd. Blessed with a handsome face and an imposing demeanor, he easily outshined the popular actors of his generation. As he walked, people turned their heads to stare at him.
Elizabeth Thompson was also at the mall with her friend Emma Cooper.
In the bustling crowd, Emma seemed to notice something and pointed to a figure in the crowd, “Emma, look there.” Elizabeth looked up and saw an elegant figure.
A prominent man.
Setting aside his own attributes, Terrence truly had a face that could make hearts race.
What a shame.
What good is just a face?
A person like Terrence will always be a good-for-nothing.
Elizabeth averted her gaze, frowning slightly, “Why did he follow me here?”
Emma said, “Such a person is like a toad wishing to eat swan meat! Emma, don’t bother with him, let’s go.”
“Okay,” Elizabeth nodded and followed Emma’s pace.
If she can’t fight him, she can at least avoid him.
When dealing with someone like Terrence, you must never give him even a glimmer of hope; otherwise, he’ll never let go.
A moment later Emma looked back, frowning, “Why is he still following us?”
Upon hearing this, Elizabeth looked back.
Indeed, Terrence was coming after them.
How could there be such a person in this world?
Even a good-for-nothing should know shame!
Emma also felt disgusted and turned to Elizabeth, “You stay here, I’ll go and make things clear with them.”
Elizabeth nodded.
Emma immediately walked up to Terrence, “Mr. Lentz.”
Terrence glanced at her.
Emma continued, “I’m Elizabeth’s best friend. My last name is Cooper.”
Sensing hostility, Adam stepped in front of Terrence, “What do you want?”
Emma looked Adam up and down, her eyes full of disdain, “Birds of a feather flock together.”
Although Adam was the eldest son of the Swantz Group, Matthew Swantz’s illegitimate son had always overshadowed him. Now Adam was hanging out with Terrence, a man destined to never achieve greatness.
After saying that, Emma continued, ‘E l !m here to warn Mr. Lentz, Elizabeth is the number one talent in River City, and not just anyone can dream of being with her! If we find him stalking Elizabeth again, we’ll report to the police!” Hearing this, Adam was furious and sneered:
“Go and tell that so-called number one talent of River City that even if she pays my brother to marry him, he won’t spare her a second glance! My future sister-in-law is a thousand times, no, ten thousand times more beautiful than her! Also, this mall is owned by the Lentz Clan, if anyone is stalking, it’s her stalking my brother! ”
Adam originally had a good impression of Elizabeth.
After all, she was the number one talent in River City.
Now, he just wanted to vomit.
Emma never expected that Adam would say such things. She stood there, speechless with anger.
After saying his piece, Adam turned and caught up with Terrence.
He had thought Terrence would be upset about this, but looking up, the man’s face hadn’t changed from beginning to end.
Unperturbed.
Curious, Adam asked, “Bro, aren’t you angry at all?”
There was no expression on Terrence’s face, and he opened his thin lips slightly, “Not worth it.”
Adam nodded, “That’s right, it’s not worth getting angry with such people.”
The two walked around, searching for the cat.
Seeing their figures approaching, Elizabeth frowned.
Their engagement had been canceled, and she had made her position clear. Why couldn’t Terrence just let go?
How long did he want to pester her? 𝑓𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝑚
Elizabeth took a deep breath. Just as she was preparing a firm speech, hoping to make Terrence back down, Terrence acted as if he didn’t see her and walked straight to the other side.
Something seemed off. Wasn’t Terrence coming after her?
As she watched Terrence walk away, Elizabeth suddenly understood something.
A moment later, she hooked the corner of her lips with a smile.This good-for-nothing is trying to play hard to get with her, isn’t he?
It’s utterly laughable.
Elizabeth Thompson averted her gaze, her face an intriguing expression.
On this side.
While they were walking, Adam Swantz suddenly spotted something and excitedly said, “Terrence, is that fat cat yours?”
Terrence Lentz looked up, his deep phoenix eyes slightly squinted, and slowly crouched down, “Mantou, come here.’
His voice was very low.
And with a hint of indulgence.
The big fat cat heard the sound, instantly ran over, and jumped into Terrence Lentz’s arms.
Terrence Lentz picked up the cat, stood up and said to Adam Swantz, “Take a picture. ”
“What picture?” Adam Swantz was stunned.
“A picture of me and my cat.”
Only then did Adam Swantz react. Although he was curious about why he was asked to take a picture, he immediately took out his phone.
Terrence Lentz had an incomparably stunning face. No matter from which angle you took the picture, it was flawless, as if it had been carefully Photoshopped.
In the photo, man and cat were extraordinarily affectionate.
“Send it to me.’
“Oh.” Adam Swantz nodded his head and sent the picture to Terrence Lentz.
Terrence Lentz handed the cat to Adam Swantz, “Hold him tight.”
Adam Swantz took the cat and felt his body sink suddenly.
Holy crap!
This cat was even heavier than he thought.
Indeed, not a single can of cat food was wasted.
Terrence Lentz sent the photo to Viola Thompson.
[Is this the cat? [Image.jpg]]
Viola Thompson didn’t expect that Terrence Lentz would actually find the cat and immediately replied: [Yes, that’s him. Where are you guys now? I’ll be right over.]
Terrence Lentz sent her the address, and then took the cat back from Adam Swantz.
Ten minutes later, Viola Thompson came running over.
“Mr. Lentz, thank you so much.”
Terrence Lentz handed the cat to Viola Thompson, and with his thin lips slightly parted, said, “You’re welcome. Actually, you don’t have to rush like this. I can wait a little longer.”
Adam Swantz: …
What a strange world!
The evil demon king could also become so considerate and thoughtful.
Viola Thompson took the cat, patted its head, “Mantou, you can’t do this again!”
Terrence Lentz looked down slightly, his low voice filled with surprise, “It’s called Mantou?”
“Yeah.’
Terrence Lentz’s mouth curved up slightly, “What a coincidence, our family used to have a cat named Mantou too. And, it looked a lot like this one.’ Adam Swantz raised his head and looked at Terrence Lentz. fr eenovelkiss.com
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would never believe that Terrence Lentz could say such nonsense with a straight face.
“Really?” Viola Thompson said.
Terrence Lentz nodded slightly.
Viola Thompson continued, “Thank you for helping me find the cat. I’m meeting some friends today, but I’ll treat you to dinner when I have time.”
“Then I’ll leave first.’
“Mmm.”
Terrence Lentz watched her leave.
Viola Thompson arrived at the place where she had arranged to meet Fiona Knight and Diana Hershey.
The two of them had already arrived, and there was also a short-haired girl standing beside them who Viola Thompson didn’t know.
When Fiona Knight saw Viola Thompson coming, she immediately waved her hand and called out, “Vio, over here!”
Viola Thompson walked over with the cat in her arms, “Fiona, Diana.”
Diana Hershey was also a cat lover. When she saw the fat cat in Viola Thompson’s arms, her eyes immediately lit up, “Oh my god! It’s so cute! Vio, is this your cat?”
Viola Thompson nodded slightly, “Yeah.”
Diana Hershey took the cat from Viola Thompson’s arms, inhaled deeply several times, and then pointed to the short-haired girl next to her, “Oh right, Vio, let me introduce you. This is my childhood friend. Her last name is Owen. Her name is very meaningful, from a poem, ‘Near the fence, chrysanthemums are planted, but no flowers bloom in autumn.’
Viola Thompson nodded slightly, “Indeed, it’s quite meaningful.”
Falling silent, she looked at the short-haired girl, “Hello, I’m Viola Thompson, Thompson as in Song Dynasty, and Viola as in the one from the poem ‘Lovely and elegant in the quiet solitude.’
The short-haired girl blushed and smiled, “I, I’m Daisy Owen..”
