“Mr. Yates, um... I’m not coming with you.”

Shannon always felt that they looked extremely incongruous when she stood beside Ethan.

Ethan put on his coat and walked out of the lounge, “I don’t want anyone to upset my decision. Of course, once I decide something, nobody can change it.”

Shannon had to follow Ethan to have dinner in the restaurant downstairs.

The restaurant was inside the stadium. Fortunately, the music company of Ethan blocked it, so there were no irrelevant people except the staff who participated in the concert.

Despite this, Shannon and Ethan still attracted everyone’s attention when they appeared in the restaurant.

Everyone looked at Shannon beside Ethan with doubts and jealousy.

Ethan was like the sun. He looked glorious wherever he was. When an ordinary woman like Shannon stood beside him, she would naturally be sheltered by his glory and become extraordinary.

“Mr. Yates, are you going to the private room?” The waiter smiled and took a look at Shannon, asking the thing that everyone was most concerned.

Everyone wanted to know if this girl would be a new love of Ethan?

They would definitely go to a private room if they were intimate.

“No.” He pulled two chairs in the drawing room and sat down at will.

The waiter was embarrassed. He handed the menu to him in a respectful manner.

“Is there any Bellview’s food here?” Ethan asked the waiter.

“Sorry, Mr. Yates. There is none.”

“Well, is there any food materials?” Ethan asked.

His voice was gentle but redoubtable.

“Yes, we have all kinds of food materials here.”

Ethan took the pen from Shannon’s hand and wrote a few lines on a piece of paper.

“Just cook as I wrote.”

The waiter took the menu that he wrote and left.

Sitting on the opposite side of Ethan, Shannon drank water silently, wondering the food pairing that he wrote.

When the waiter served food, Shannon found that they were all her favorite food.

All the dishes that Ethan ordered were her favorite. Was it unintentional or coincidental?

Shannon was distracted to see the dishes.

“Keep your mind clear and enjoy the dinner.” Ethan handed her a pair of chopsticks. She took them after a pause.

“Thank you.”

Ethan seemed to have forgotten the unpleasant history of her previous “selling photos to the media”. He was still gentle to her as ever.

Shannon was touched.

“After dinner, have a rest on the sixth floor. If there is something, I will call you.”

“How about I come here tomorrow?”

“It would be troublesome for the safeguard to pick you up. It is also a waste of car oil.” Ethan sipped the orange juice.

“Oh.” Shannon had to stay here.

After they had dinner, Shannon went to the sixth floor, but she forgot to ask Ethan about the exact room number. So, she went down the elevator to find him, but she failed.

The stadium was so large and Ethan was very busy. Shannon didn’t want to disturb him, so she leaned against the corridor wall on the sixth floor and read the design book.

“I know, I have approached the two people, and I know that they bought the front seats... Rest assured, I will also put Snow in his cup...”

Shannon suddenly stopped turning over the book.

Snow?

Whose cup would he put Snow in?

Shannon instantly hid in the dark, trying to listen to what he would say next. But she heard nothing after a long time.

Shannon quietly looked toward that direction and found a man of medium height in a suit. He walked into the elevator with a mobile phone in his hand.

At this time, the man found her, so she immediately lowered her head and took a book to read, pretending that she was just passing through there. However, the man was not deceived. He put away his phone, instantly pressed the elevator switch and blocked Shannon in a rush.

The man smiled sullenly and asked her, “Who are you? Why haven’t I seen you before?”

Shannon said calmly, “I am a staff here.”

“Really? Where do you work? I find you sneaking like a thief! I have to take you to the police station!” As the man said that, he grabbed Shannon’s arm and dragged her into the elevator.

“I am not a thief! I am a staff member participating in the concert.”

Shannon knew that the wicked man was trying to seize the initiative. She could tell from his previous conversation that there must be an unspeakable conspiracy. He was afraid that his plot would be leaked, so he wanted to drive her away.

“I haven’t seen you before. You must be a tabloid reporter who wants to dig out Mr. Yates’s privacy. Paparazzi like you are the most hateful. You know, Mr. Yates hates paparazzi the most!” As the man said that, he forcibly dragged her into the elevator.

Shannon grabbed the elevator door and contended with the man.

Suddenly, she was dragged by a strong force, and then fell into a broad chest, which made her feel at ease. Her waist was also circled by an arm.

“Eth, Mr. Yates...” The man suddenly changed his previously arrogant attitude, bowing with a face of respect.

“Zachary, she is my costume designer.”

The man was called Zachary Steele, the assistant assigned by the brokerage company to handle concert affairs.

Zachary acted like he was very guilty and apologized to Shannon, “Sorry, it’s my fault, I was worried that there might be tabloid reporters coming in.”

“Well.” Ethan sheltered Shannon, holding her hand and turning away from the elevator.

The moment her hand was touched, Shannon wanted to pull back, but she could not get rid of him.

“What happened?” Ethan didn’t let her go until he took her into a quiet and simple bedroom.

Shannon could not help telling him what she had heard just now, and told him about her doubts, “Snow is the code name of those prohibited items. I think Zachary must have a conspiracy, and you ought to be careful.”

Ethan pondered for a moment and nodded. Then he reminded her seriously, “You’d better guard against the strangers from possible attacks in the future.” Thinking of she twisted her enchanting body with those unknown men in Mood for Love, Ethan said sourly, “This is not Mood for Love where you can chat up with anyone.”

Shannon’s heart feel.

It seemed that he knew what she did there.

“So, Mr. Yates, I once served men for living, and this upscale place is really not suitable for someone like me to stay.” Shannon sneered with self-deprecation.

“I don’t care about it. I am more concerned about when the costumes will be completed.”

Ethan’s face fell. He poured two cups of water. One was placed next to him and the other was held by himself.

Shannon was about to speak, but said nothing. Finally she just kept silent.

At this time, Ethan’s phone rang and he stood up to answer it.

“Well, I’m coming.” He glanced at Shannon and handed a phone card to her, “Put it in your phone for easy contact.”

He knew that her phone number was destroyed in Mood for Love. So, he specially bought a new one for her.

Shannon wanted to refuse, but Ethan slammed the door and left.

Looking at his back, she was somewhat absent-minded.

When Ethan went out of the bedroom, Zachary immediately hid in the dark with his camera.

After he went away, Zachary dialed a telephone number, “Video News media? I have a big news for you...”

In the room, Shannon pressed the phone card into her phone card slot. She restarted the phone and found there were two numbers on it, one was the phone number of her card, and the other was a stranger number.

Clicking on the number, she found a name below it, Ethan.

Shannon was a little moved.

Shannon observed the bedroom. It was simple but elegant. And there was a living room and a bedroom. The afternoon sunshine shined from the balcony, which was very warm.

She placed the design drawings on the table and began to study fashion design.

At five o’clock, her phone rang.

“Come to the lounge.”

Ethan’s voice was a little bit harsh.

“Oh.” Shannon hung up the phone, took a cloth ruler and a pen, and then went to the lounge on the first floor.

When Shannon arrived at the lounge, she saw a lot of staff inside.

Ethan sat among them with a serious face.

Shannon also saw Zachary among these people. Sitting on the left side of Ethan, he frowned heavily.

Shannon was invited by the safeguards who were standing outside the door. As soon as she entered, everyone stared at her. She had a feeling of being the target of public criticism.

Ethan saw her and said slowly, “Prepare to record the news conference. We are doing it here.”

The staff followed his orders as he finished.

The cameraman pushed the camera in the lounge, and the makeup artist began to set up lights for Ethan. He looked at Shannon, “Shannon, come here.”

Shannon walked over and stood next to the lighting engineer and the makeup artist.

“Mr. Yates asked you to stand next to him, didn’t you hear it?” The makeup artist Aka whispered to remind Shannon.

Shannon moved slowly until she walked next to Ethan.

“Mr. Yates, can we start?”

Ethan nodded, “Let’s get started.”

“Look at the camera.” Ethan said to Shannon.

Shannon did as he said.

Shannon didn’t understand why she was asked to stand next to him to attend the conference. Of course, she did not ask more but had to cooperate.

“Good afternoon, I am Ethan. Today I hold this conference to clarify some false reports of Video News. The one standing next to me is my designer, Shannon. I went to her room to discuss the design of the costume. The photos are true, but the news reports not. Please don’t make use of a photo and make a story out of it. I hope this is the end. If there are still false statements which would cause serious influence on me, I will sue the media.”

Ethan said that with a gentle tone, but it was still uncompromising.

Shannon listened to his words and seemed to know a little about the conference.

It seemed that the photo got Ethan into trouble again.

Shannon felt a little uneasy. Was it taken by Sienna again? The one who had already taken photos in secret and sold them to the media for money...

But it sounded like she was also involved the photo…

Thinking of this, Shannon got more and more perturbed.

In a short time, the clarification conference ended.

Ethan did not like to make his news conference large and grand. He preferred to record it either at home or at the workplace casually.

The cameraman, lighting engineer and other staff began to pick up the equipment and left the place. The makeup artist Aka was also tidying up her own stuffs.

Shannon felt that she had nothing to do, so she was ready to leave.

But Aka stopped her.
