Chapter 13 Prince Charming. Couldn’t Avoid the Enemy
Chapter 13 Prince Charming. Couldn’t Avoid the Enemy
The black Mercedes pulled up in front of Cecilia. Chloe Perez got out of the car and hugged Cecilia.
Then, she looked at Sean with confused eyes and frowned, “Cecilia, is that your newly engaged
husband?”
“Yes.”
Cecilia nodded.
After looking at Sean a few times, Chloe Perez could hardly conceal her contempt and disgust. But in
front of Cecilia, she laughed against her will, “He’s a big, beefy man with a good build. I heard all about
the engagement party. He stood up for you and Phyllis. He’s a man of courage and commitment.”
“Thanks for the compliment.”
Sean took it in stride.
“…”
Chloe rolled her eyes, her disdain even more pronounced. She thought to herself, “I’m trying to comfort
Cecilia. Can’t you hear me?” She looked away from Sean and explained, “I was supposed to go to your
engagement party that morning. But Hudson asked me to have dinner with him, so I was delayed. You
won’t mind, will you?”
“Of course not.”
Cecilia shook her head.
“Look, it was Hudson’s gift to me. Isn’t it beautiful?”
Chloe pointed to the Cartier pendant on her neck and said proudly, “I looked it up online, and it’s worth
150 grand.”
“So expensive?”
Cecilia was surprised. She looked closely at it and praised, “It’s beautiful. It goes with your skin tone,
and in that dress, you’re like a fairy now.”
“You have a good eye! Worthy of being my best friend!” Chloe was even more proud.
Sean shook his head.
Chloe’s features were fine, but she was nothing compared to Cecilia. And she was heavily made up
and was wearing a red dress with an open neckline. When talking to Cecilia, she deliberately moved
her hips in a sexy but sultry way.
Fairy?
It was nice of Cecilia to say that kind of humbug.
She didn’t deserve to be called a fairy.
“Chloe.”
Suddenly, the driver’s door was opened, and Hudson Scott, who had been sitting in the car talking on
the phone just now, came out and walked directly to Chloe and Cecilia. He held out his hand to Cecilia
in a gentlemanly way and smiled, “Nice to meet you, Miss Moore.”
“Nice to meet you, too.”
Cecilia politely shook his hand. Although Hudson Scott did a good job of hiding it, he looked at Cecilia
with a certain amount of awe and salivation in his eyes.
“Cecilia, let me introduce.”
Chloe did not notice that. She turned to Hudson Scott’s arm, her breast against the arm of Hudson,
showing an intimate with him, “My prince Charming, Hudson Scott, son of the Scott family south of
town. General manager of Brilliant Pictures, one of Hilshire’s top 10 outstanding young men. Member
of the Provincial Martial Arts Association and vice president of the City Martial Arts Association…”
When talking about Hudson Scott, Chloe’s chin rose slightly and she was in a state of ecstasy.
“That’s really impressive.”
Even Cecilia had to admit that Hudson Scott was great, with her best wishes, “You’re lucky that you
found such a great guy, and as your best friend, I’m really happy for you. I wish you both a long and
happy life.”
“Well, yeah.”
Chloe smirked, then turned around and said, “But Cecilia, don’t be too sad. You are just engaged.
Anyway, you didn’t get married yet. Hudson has a lot of friends. If I have a chance in the future, I will
introduce you to them. Maybe one of them will be your Prince Charming.”
Her voice was very loud, and she didn’t want to hide it from Sean at all.
Hudson Scott didn’t even look at Sean at all. He followed Chloe’s words and said, “To tell you the truth,
our company is going to cooperate with the Moore Group on a recent project. In addition to having
dinner with Chloe, I also want to accompany my father to discuss the details of our cooperation with Mr.
Moore. My dad would still be at the Moore Group…”
“Oh?”
Cecilia was stunned.
Hudson Scott laughed, “I heard that this engagement was your grandfather’s idea, and if Miss Cecilia
has some bad feelings and wants to break off the engagement, maybe I can help.”
“Yes. Yes.”
Chloe nodded and said, “No matter how partial your grandfather is to your cousin, he will listen to the
Scott family. If Hudson could put in a good word for you, you’d probably win him over.” Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
“I’ll introduce you to Hudson’s friends and see who can bully you in the future!”
There was no denying that Chloe had Cecilia’s best interests at heart.
But Cecilia looked over her shoulder at Sean, hesitated for a moment, and shook her head, “Forget it.
Every man has his destiny, and I’m not as blessed as you. As long as Phyllis is with me and she can
grow up carefree, I’ll be happy.”
“But…”
“It’s getting late. Let’s go.”
Chloe tried to persuade Cecilia again, but Cecilia didn’t give her the chance. After all, it was cruel for
Sean to say that in front of him.
Sean, however, didn’t take those words to heart.
In his position, it was normal to be disliked and despised. If Chloe set him up with Cecilia, she’d be
insane.
What he cared about was Hudson Scott’s identity!
The son of the Scott family south of town?
The general manager of Brilliant Pictures?
What a coincidence!
One couldn’t avoid his enemy.
Sean remembered going back to Hilshire with his mother five years ago. Due to the Mason family of
the Capital City’s reputation, many families in Hilshire welcomed them and hosted a banquet for him
and his mother in the attempt to establish a relationship with the Mason family of the Capital City.
Especially the ones on the south side.
His mother’s family was on the South side of the city, so the south side families were the most
attentive.
On the night of Sean’s accident, he was carried to a hotel room where he slept with Cecilia after a few
too many drinks.
There were three heads of families at the banquet. They were the Miller family, the Taylor family, and
the Scott family.
And Connor Scott, head of the Scott Family, was Hudson Scott’s father.
Today was the first time that Sean and Hudson Scott met. Originally, he didn’t know Sean, and Sean
didn’t know him. But Connor Scott was the only wealthy Scott on the south side of town. N&P Media,
the predecessor of Brilliant Pictures, was owned by Sean’s mother’s family!
N&P represented Sean’s mother, Nicola Wright, and his father, Parker Mason.
Sean was set up at a booze party and jailed! His mother Nicola Wright returned to the Capital City,
knelt in front of the Mason family for three days and nights, and then died! What was once a Wright
family property was now a company owned by the Scott family!
Who would believe that the Scott family didn’t collude with the Mason family?
“I don’t know how grandma and grandpa are doing now. Mother died tragically, and the property was
taken from them. They’re old. It must have been a hard five years for them…”
Sean sat in the Mercedes and glanced at Hudson Scott, who was driving. A cold, piercing chill crept
over him, “Looks like I’ll have to get south of town as soon as possible. If the Scott family were involved
in this conspiracy, they would have to pay for it!”
Ricky Mall. The sixth floor.
Women go shopping for clothes, shoes, cosmetics. Cecilia and Chloe led the way, almost shop by
shop. They did not find anything suitable in the first five or six stores until Cecilia entered a women’s
clothing store and saw a white dress hanging in the middle of the store.
“It’s so beautiful…”
Cecilia put her hand on the white dress and touched it. Her eyes were shining and it was obvious that
she loved it.
She was talking to herself very quietly, but Sean heard her.
Sean followed and said with a smile, “Buy it if you like.”
“No, I can’t.”
Cecilia glared at Sean, pointed to the price tag, and shook her head, “You see, 28,888. It’s too
expensive. I can’t afford it right now.”
Matthew Moore was disabled, Marcia retired, and Phyllis was still young. Cecilia was the sole bread-
earner for her family of four. When she worked at the Moore Group, she didn’t earn much. Now Isaac
had kicked him out of the Moore Group and she was unemployed. Although she said she would get
another job, she was under great pressure.
She had to tighten her belt.
How could she possibly have spare money for all these fancy clothes?
“It’s okay. I’ll buy it for you.”
Sean’s heart twitched and he felt even more sorry for Cecilia. Chloe had already done a lot of
shopping. But Cecilia didn’t buy anything, saying she “didn’t like it.”
He took out his bank card and was about to pay, but just at that moment, a salesgirl in the store
suddenly came over and patted away Cecilia’s right hand, which was touching the white dress, and
said coldly, “If you don’t buy it, don’t touch it. Can you afford to pay for it?”
