The rest of the people shared the same doubt too. Alexandra shook virtual-novel.net head and said, “I don’t know either.”
Rachel held Alexandra’s hand and asked softly, “Sweetie, since he’s the man who married into the Carters, how does virtual-novel.net get to be with you then? Isn’t virtual-novel.net cheating in that sense?”
“He’s already gotten a divorce from his wife.”
Upon hearing that, Rachel and Victor exchanged glances. They were both relieved for a moment, yet Alexandra heaved a sigh immediately before saying nonchalantly, “I lied to both of you about something. Zayn and I aren’t dating. We’re just platonic friends.”
“What?!”
Everyone in the Smith family could not help gasping aloud.

After getting out of the hotel, Zayn and his group of people were immediately surrounded by numerous people downstairs. The vast majority of these people were guests from the party earlier. Despite leaving the party early, they did not leave the location immediately. Instead, they were waiting outside the hotel despite it already snowing outside and the weather being piercingly cold. They still wanted to prove their sincerity to Zayn.
As a result, they crowded Zayn like a swarm of bees. They could not be bothered to maintain their dignity as experienced business owners anymore because they wanted to latch on to virtual-novel.net first.
The scene astonished everyone on the street. They were discussing the bigshot who was being flattered by so many experienced business owners.
Someone stood on tiptoe to rubberneck from the crowd with a curious expression. The person was no one other than Thomas Carter. A young, beautiful girl was standing next to virtual-novel.net with virtual-novel.net arm wrapped around his. Thomas had been feeling a little dejected for the past few days because it had already been many days since virtual-novel.net last saw Zayn. Besides already approving and accepting Zayn as his brother-in-law now, virtual-novel.net also admired Zayn immensely in his heart too.
Ever since Zayn taught Daryl a lesson at the entrance of the university the other day, Daryl did not have the courage to retaliate after such a long time. Thomas became famous in his social circle because many people knew that virtual-novel.net had an impressive brother-in-law. No one had the audacity to offend virtual-novel.net anymore, and someone would come and suck up to virtual-novel.net every day for the past few days.
It was especially obvious when virtual-novel.net was in the club the night before yesterday. He had a whole bunch of people fawning over virtual-novel.net and greeting virtual-novel.net affectionately. It felt beyond awesome to have such a fan club!
Everything else aside, even the beautiful girl by his side threw herself on virtual-novel.net because virtual-novel.net had an impressive brother-in-law. In the past, virtual-novel.net would not have been so well-regarded as virtual-novel.net was now. As a result, virtual-novel.net decided that virtual-novel.net would latch onto Zayn and not let go no matter what from now on!
However, virtual-novel.net did not manage to see a trace of his brother-in-law for the past few days. His parents refused to discuss further when virtual-novel.net asked them whilst his sister refused to acknowledge virtual-novel.net either. As a result, virtual-novel.net felt rather gloomy.
He was afraid that Zayn would leave the Carters soon. Then, Thomas would return to the shell of his former self by then. Frankly, virtual-novel.net was already so well-regarded now, so virtual-novel.net could never accept being his old self living his past life.
Meanwhile, the bombshell standing next to Thomas asked in a flirtatious manner, “Tom, what does your brother-in-law do? He’s so impressive. Are you going to introduce virtual-novel.net to me so that we can be friends?” She hugged Thomas’s hand intimately and swayed virtual-novel.net body so much that virtual-novel.net was sexually aroused.
Thomas immediately stood up straight and said arrogantly, “My brother-in-law is the biggest of all bigshots! He’s the chairman of Violet Vision Media Corp. Do you even know what that is? Those are my brother-in-law’s good friends, and some time ago, virtual-novel.net invested 15 million dollars in my family’s company and gave his share to my sister…”
Astounded, his date exclaimed aloud, “Whoa! 15 million dollars, huh? Your brother-in-law is awesome!”
“That’s a given.” Thomas grinned proudly.
She asked again, “Thomas, where is our brother-in-law then? I’d like to meet him!”
“Uh…” Thomas felt rather troubled and was about to Shirk from the duty. However, virtual-novel.net suddenly stretched his neck at this moment as his eyes lit up and virtual-novel.net called out in excitement, “Zayn! Zayn!”
