I Became His Sweetheart by Bright Eyes

Chapter 360 Annoying Couple

“What are you doing?”

For the first time in his life, William was dragged into the bathroom by a woman. He felt inexplicably

flustered.

The fact that this woman had publicly called him a dog made him even angrier.

“Hush!”

Annie, who was listening to the commotion outside by pressing her ear against the door, wasn’t aware

of

William’s embarrassment and irritation.

“Good thing she didn’t notice…”

“What’s fortunate, President Snow?”

William pulled away Annie’s hand from his clothes, and straightened out the wrinkles.

Annie looked up and saw William’s displeasure, and smiled apologetically.

“Well, I need to talk to you, so I had to resort to this. We might as well pretend to be a couple in front of

Melanie…”

“What?” William’s face contorted.

“Not exactly a couple, but a dating couple…” Annie clasped her hands together in a pleading gesture.

“President Snow! Are you willing to date a dog?” William refused to relent.

“Hey!” Annie, unwilling to give in, retorted, “It’s because your president asked me to do something. I

had no choice but to do this! Do you think I want to ship myself with you? If you don’t agree, I’ll go tell

Jeffrey that I’m

done working for him!” S

“Don’t!” William resisted for only three seconds, and had to give in. “I’ll cooperate.”

That was about right. Seeing William obediently cooperating, Annie smiled in satisfaction.

However, William wasn’t pleased. He turned to leave, but was pulled back by the woman behind him.

Feeling his collar being grabbed again by Annie like how his fate was, William didn’t want to experience

it for the third time. His lips twitched, and he asked, “What now?”

“Since we’re pretending to be dating, we need to follow each other on Instagram.”

William, helpless, pursed his lips, took out his phone, and showed her his handle. He waited patiently

for her to read it. Annie, feeling triumphant, took out her phone and swiftly searched for his name. Ding!

“I’ll go first.”

Without wasting a second, Annie turned around and opened the door, leaving William shaking his head

inside. He had no idea if he would get a bonus after accomplishing the task of helping the president

chase after his

wife…

Outside. Melanie was already sitting at the table, eating and teasing Annie. “Why did it take so long?”

“I touched up my makeup.”

“A woman’s charm is for her own enjoyment. I understand.” Melanie teased with a smile.

Annie, with a forced smile, changed the subject. “How’s the food? Is it delicious?”

“It’s quite to my liking because it’s light. However, you like heavy food. Mr. Moore miscalculated.”

Melanie

smiled.

“I’ve recently developed a liking for lighter flavors,” Annie said, picking up her cutlery and eating

heartily.

“Tsk, tsk.” Melanie shook her head. “Love is a magical thing. After more than twenty years, one’s taste

suddenly changes when in love.”

After finishing the meal, Melanie received a call from the International Perfume Blending Competition

Committee. There was a welcome banquet in the evening, hosted by the committee, inviting the first

batch of

contestants and judges to gather. It was a tradition for international competitions and akin to an

opening

ceremony in domestic events.

“Do I have to go?” Melanie asked.

The staff on the other end of the phone said, “Mr. Joseph, the president of the committee, specifically

mentioned you. If you don’t have urgent matters, it’s better to attend.”

“Okay,” Melanie agreed.

Joseph seemed to be taking extra care of her…

She had come to Medonia twice, and each time it seemed inevitable to avoid the Yorks. However, she

hadn’t

had the chance to get close to Joseph. She also wanted to find an opportunity to find out why Joseph

was so

considerate of her.

In the evening, Melanie arrived at the banquet venue on time. Because it was an industry banquet, she

only

wore a neat and stylish suit instead of an evening gown.

As soon as she entered the banquet hall, she saw Jeffrey standing right in front of her. He was wearing

a navy suit, finely tailored and fitting. The night sky blue tie was adorned with a diamond. Unexpectedly,

he had taken

the effort to dress up.

It seemed like he was waiting for her. He was purposefully standing in the most conspicuous place,

completely different from his usual style. Upon seeing her, he shifted his gaze to her and didn’t move it

away

after that.

Melanie didn’t intend to pay him any attention, but Jeffrey walked toward her and asked, “You’re not

feeling well, so you should be resting at the hotel.”

“Mr. Joseph asked me to come. President Morgan, please show some restraint.”

After saying that, she brushed past Jeffrey and coincidentally saw Gabriel not far away, waving to her.

So, she went straight over to find Gabriel.

Jeffrey turned around to look at her. She wasn’t wearing a formal gown, and her high heels weren’t

particularly high. Could it be that she already knew she was pregnant?

At this thought, he caught up with her, hovering within a radius of two and a half meters from her…

Although he was worried about her, he knew Joseph would pay extra attention to her tonight, so he

could only maintain his distance.

The atmosphere at the banquet was lively. The first half was a typical banquet, where people

exchanged greetings and conversations.

In the second half, the chief judge, Robert Locke, finally arrived. Upon his arrival, he suggested seeing

the extraordinary skills of the participants of the Perfume Blending Competition, which caused the

crowd to buzz. Robert, who was specially invited by the organizing committee to be a chief judge, was

highly esteemed in the international fragrance industry. Contestants wanted to perform well in front of

him to gain his attention, which would be beneficial for both the competition results and their future

development.

Several perfumers from different countries showcased their talents one after another. After the

performance, other judges curiously asked Robert, “Mr. Locke, are you satisfied with the contestants

this year? They are truly outstanding, aren’t they?”
