That night fell.


Jack Hughes and Lone Wolf rushed to the agreed place of Ivy Hughes.


The private restaurant was of a very high class and luxurious.


The music is melodious sounding and the lighting is soft and comfortable.


The atmosphere is amazing.


But the restaurant was silent, only the music echoed, there were no customers.


"Mr Hughes, please follow me."


A servant greeted him.


"You know me?" Jack dumbfounded.


The waiter smiled gently and said, "Tonight, the entire restaurant has been booked by Miss Hughes, so only Mr. Hughes can enter the restaurant."


Meanwhile, he looked at Lone Wolf and said, "Sorry, Master. Miss Hughes just invited Mr. Hughes so please wait outside."


Lone Wolf nodded and turned around then sat down on the chair near the entrance.


He's here just to protect Jack and it doesn't matter if he can get in or not.


"Please prepare dinner for my friend and the password is six 6."


Jack gave the waiter a credit card and walked into the restaurant.


The center of the restaurant is covered by lighting.


Ivy, who was wearing a red evening gown, was sitting in front of the table and her back showed a perfect S curved line.


He looks very elegant.


It was as if he was a graceful peacock.


His slender fingers gently shifted the edge of the red wine glass.


Under the lighting and music, the scene was like a beautiful painting.


Even Jack could not help but feel awe at his first glance.


Even without the huge support of the Hughes family, Ivy could still be a shining star in the entertainment industry due to her good looks.


"Hump up."


Ivy raised his eyebrows and smiled at Jack when Jack arrived.


The gloomy eyes became cheerful for a moment.


He behaves like a little girl.


But to Jack, he was different, he sneered in his heart.


He walked towards the table nonchalantly and sat down then said, "Why did you invite me to dinner today?"


"yeah? I'm coming to your place and inviting you to dinner. Do I really need a reason for that?"


Ivy smiled and pointed towards the wine glass in front of her. He said, "This is a collection-level red wine and I've already poured it. Now is the best time to drink it and I hope you will love it."


Jack looked at the red wine in the glass and he didn't touch it.


"Fear of poisoning?"


Ivy understood what Jack was thinking, so he picked up Jack's wine glass with a smile and drank it all at once.


After which, he picked up his own glass and drank the red wine at once.


He put the two glasses of wine upside down in the air and blinked his eyes then asked, "Will you trust me now?"


Jack said nothing and looked at the bottle of red wine.


"You're very suspicious."


Ivy let out a helpless sigh and directly picked up the wine bottle then poured a mouthful of wine into her mouth.


Obviously, it was impolite to drink red wine in such a manner.


But, when Ivy did that, she showed a different feeling.


After putting the wine bottle down, drops of red wine flowed in the corner of his white mouth. With the stimulation of the red wine, he could not help but frown and give others a miserable feeling.


"It's okay now."


Jack took over the bottle calmly and poured red wine into his glass. He shuffled the glass skillfully and then drank it all at once.


After tasting the red wine for a few seconds, he slowly said, "It's good."


"of course. This is the collection level and I specifically brought it from the Hughes family wine cellar."


Ivy behaves like a child who made a mistake and approaches Jack discreetly. He whispered, "This bottle of wine costs hundreds of thousands. If my grandmother knew, I would definitely be scolded by her."


Jack sneered and asked, "Can we talk business?"


Ivy squinted at Jack and poured himself a glass of red wine then cut the steak and started eating.


Did the woman really just invite him to dinner?


Jack frowned and did not continue asking but drank wine as well as ate steak.


In restaurant.


The melodious music echoed.


At the dining table, it was completely silent.


Only the sound of knives and forks rubbing against dinner plates and the sound of glasses colliding with each other occasionally.


Immediately, Ivy's face flushed red as she was slightly drunk.


"Jack, I think you're very handsome." With a drunken feeling, he started to say something.


Holding his chin with his hand, he looked at Jack with a smile and his eyes were bent into two crescent moons.


"So, do you have feelings for me?" Jack replied nonchalantly.


Ivy sneered and poured her own glass of red wine and then drank it all at once. He said, "You understand."


Clink!


Jack put down the knife and fork while looking at Ivy who was in front of him with furrowed brows.


Even with his experience and temperament, he really did not understand Ivy at the moment.


This woman is unexpected!


He's even smarter than George Hughes and Killian Hughes!


Ivy enjoyed herself in drinking wine and shuffling the wine glass as if she was drunk and kept muttering.


"Actually, even though I am the heir to the Hughes family, I am a girl and I am pretty sure that I have no chance of becoming the head of the family. For the reason of having an identity as an heir, I guess it was the result of grandmother's devotion."


"In fact, I feel my qualifications as heir are not as good as yours... I'm sorry for my rudeness but even though you're considered a bastard by the Hughes family, I'm not as good as you."


Jack frowned and looked ominous.


He doesn't care about the word "bastard".


It was because he was called that way from a young age.


But, the words Ivy spoke made him a little uncomfortable.


Ivy seemed oblivious to Jack's displeasure and kept talking to herself.


"In my life, my greatest desire is to become a superstar in the entertainment industry. It's good to attract people."


"And, I'm also of the opinion that Jack didn't qualify as heir when I heard them call you, but I changed my mind when I saw you."


Meanwhile, Ivy's right hand falls randomly but falls on Jack's back.


His fingers rubbed Jack's hands and he said softly, "I think the so-called heirs in the family are not as good as Jack's, regardless of their abilities and appearance. Even though we're from the Hughes family, we don't have much blood relation, so it doesn't affect my devotion to Jack, does it?"


The slap!


Jack brushed Ivy's hand off.


He suddenly stood up and said angrily, "I've warned you. If you don't want to be my enemy, then stay away from me."


As he said, Jack turned around and was about to leave.


But when he moved his body, dizziness suddenly struck his head.


He shook his body and he supported himself by holding the chair with his right hand. He looked at Ivy angrily and said, "Wine ..."


Ivy smiled charmingly and pointed towards the wine glass then said, "I won't spoil the collection-level red wine but my lipstick ..."


While saying, he stood up slowly and walked over to Jack's side. He blew Jack's ear and said, "Jack, I'm sorry. I like you so much and I want to be with you tonight."


"Not shameless!"


Jack gritted his teeth and scolded.


He wanted to leave but the dizziness became more and more unstoppable..


What made him even more frightened was a heat wave rising in his stomach.


At that moment, he felt the world spinning. The light rays reflected in the restaurant made her look even more charming.


Ivy who stood before her was more beautiful and attractive, making her interested and addicted to him.


"Let's stay."


Ivy smiled and stretched out her hand to gently hug Jack's waist and pulled him gently.


Jack loses his balance instantly and falls into Ivy's arms. His sight slowly blurred...
