Destined by One Night: The CEO's Pursuit

Chapter 123

Ch. 123 / 281 Apr 07, 2026

He felt that his three bros didn't like him now. They were very unhappy to see him.

He didn't know how he had offended them.

He felt like he was about to be isolated!

He almost wanted to cry.

"Alright, alright. I didn't eat much at home, and Malcolm just had dinner." Julian shifted his seat to let the two of them sit down.

Malcolm gave the two a faint look, still silent. He continued his dinner. He did not eat much in the morning!

When he was in a bad mood, he wouldn't feel hungry!

Terence glanced at Malcolm, took out all the takeaway barbecue, and put them on the table. Malcolm shared with them without hesitation.

Julian got up and got each of them some beer from the fridge.

The four of them would be together on the weekend and chat.

Sergio raised his head and drank a mouthful of beer. Then he put the can on the table and looked at Malcolm casually.

He found that Malcolm seemed unhappy. So he smiled and said, "Malcolm, I met Marilyn at the mall yesterday. Mrs. Remington and Velma were bullying her."

Malcolm paused for a while and looked at him. "Yesterday?"

"Yes!" Sergio nodded.

Malcolm narrowed his eyes. No wonder he found that Lynn spent a long time in the restroom.

"For what?" His tone was low and cold, and his eyes were narrowed.

He thought, "Mrs. Remington, you gave up on Lynn first."

However, for the sake of Lynn's safety, he could not tell them the truth now!

Sergio recounted what had happened. After that, Julian smiled, "It seems that Marilyn is not someone to be bullied."

He glanced at Malcolm. If Mrs. Remington knew that she insulted her own daughter, would she regret it?

However, for the sake of Lynn's safety, they couldn't tell Debbie the truth.

Sergio smiled. "I have the honor of seeing the whole story. Marilyn is quite interesting."

Malcolm suddenly looked at him with his black eyes. Sergio rarely smiled, but he smiled so gently because of Lynn.

Julian asked in amusement, "Sergio, are you interested in Lynn?"

Malcolm's entire body tensed up as he listened intently.

Terence also joked, "Sergio, you're rarely interested in a girl. Marilyn not only has beauty. She leaves the impression that she is innocent and great."

Malcolm's face became more and more gloomy.

"Yeah, I'm quite interested." Sergio elegantly curved the corners of his lips and lowered his head to continue the food.

Julian's heart skipped a beat. When Sergio was interested in a girl, it meant that he had developed feelings for her.

He quickly glanced at Malcolm and pursed his lips in fear when seeing Malcolm's increasingly gloomy face.

With a blabbermouth like Terence here, who knew what shocking words he would say?

Julian felt the atmosphere become cold and dull.

But Terence did not feel anything wrong. He put on a strange smile and looked at Sergio's face. "Sergio, I've never heard of any girl you've been interested in since you were young. So it seems Marilyn is charming! You must work hard."

"I won't consider it now," Sergio responded casually and lowered his head to eat.

Terence had always been a carefree person. With a good family background, he enjoyed a good life without any worries. Being gossipy was his only shortcoming.

Julian found that they couldn't continue this topic when glancing at Malcolm's furious eyes. Otherwise, it would be a hard night for him tonight.

Terence would also be also finished.

He changed the topic and asked, "By the way, with that matter, the Lowe and Remington families are supposed to have a marriage. But why isn't there any news?"

This topic caught Terence's attention. He said with great interest, "How could Hugo like Velma? If the Lowe family doesn't mention it the Remington family would be embarrassed to say it. After all, they have a friendship of decades.

"My mother asked about it when she played mahjong with Mrs. Lowe yesterday. But Mrs. Lowe fooled her with a few words. She did not want her son to marry Velma."

Sergio's tone carried a bit of pity. Velma was also a beauty. It was just that she was ruined by Hugo because of her carelessness.

It was better to give up if one really couldn't get the things he wanted.

"You're more well-informed than anyone else. I hadn't even figured out what Yvonne had done. But now you've saved me a lot of time."

Julian narrowed his eyes slightly. She was planned against by Hugo when she tried to do it on Hugo. But how could she believe Yvonne's words? Velma was really stupid.

"Of course, my mother is well-informed, okay? In this circle, few things could be hidden from her. After playing mahjong, she can know almost the whole story." Terence was quite proud.

Julian smiled slyly and silently cursed in his heart. Terence was just like his gossipy mother.

Malcolm narrowed his eyes. "Pay more attention to Hugo's every move. They won't let go of what happened that night. If they do anything too far, release the video."

"Alright, I'll." Julian nodded. He must be careful in terms of this matter.

But Terence suddenly slammed the table.

The other three were all attracted by him.

Julian said angrily, "Are you mad? But you haven't finished your beer yet? What's wrong with you?"

Terence glared at him with dissatisfaction. "Julian, I am angry!"

Julian looked at him with a disgusted expression. Malcolm was the irritable one, okay? As an easygoing man, why didn't Terence suddenly throw a fit?

Sergio asked in a low tone, "You seldom throw a fit like this. Tell us, what happened?"

Terence heaved a sigh of relief and said excitedly, "Yvonne just wanted to make things difficult for Malcolm. Wasn't the Hamilton family destroyed by Malcolm?

"Yvonne went to find Mr. Hamilton personally and took the initiative to cooperate with the Hamilton family. Wasn't he trying to make things difficult for Malcolm?"

"Oh!" Julian was also quite surprised.

"Is Yvonne a man who would clean up the mess?" Sergio's tone was slightly cold.

Julian nodded and said, "That's right. He is not that brave but very foxy. Since he took the initiative to help the Hamilton family, we must be careful."

Malcolm glanced at the three of them and said coldly, "Don't worry. He won't bring anything big. Don't talk about work on the weekend. You all just deal with your own work. I'll deal with Yvonne sooner or later."

On Terence's handsome face, the corners of his eyes drooped slightly. He smiled mischievously and said, "Malcolm, are you in a bad mood?"

But why did he feel so happy in an instant when finding that Malcolm was not happy?
