Oops My Toyboy Is A Hidden Tycoon

Chapter 144

Jonathan was wearing complete business attire today. His black shirt was perfectly tailored with smooth lines as if each crease was precisely calculated, and it was buttoned up to the top. His skin was smooth enough, yet he didn't have the delicate look of a Pretty Boy. His facial features were sharp like they were chiseled, especially his deep blue eyes that seemed bottomless, exuding a strong, commanding presence.

Just by standing there, he could attract numerous glances. That restrained yet powerful aura made people feel both intimidated and irresistibly drawn to him. It seemed like just being next to someone like him could elevate one's status,

Next to him was Nina. Today, she wore a pink dress with long, blond, and straight hair. And there was a string of pearls around her neck. Her makeup was immaculate, making her look like a Barbie doll on display in a glass showcase.

"Jonathan, everyone's here. Let's go." Nina was clearly happy, with a hint of excitement like a bird finally free from its cage Her voice was sweet and gentle, evoking a desire in others to care for her.

"Okay, let's go." Jonathan replied softly, even though he spoke just a few words.

(What's the deal here? Nina calls his name directly. Their relationship seems unusual.]

[Considering the deep connections among the four major families in Betrico, it's no surprise. They've been united by marriage for generations, so it's not strange at all that Nina calls his name directly]

Mr. Bennett was so gentle. That slight curl of his lips captivated me.]

Nina and Jonathan walked over to the group and greeted everyone. Ethan and Jonathan already knew each other, and they shook hands briefly. Jesse exchanged a few polite words in a rather cold and formal manner. After greeting, Alex's gaze casually lingered on Nina for a moment.

Abby squeezed in and looped her arm through Nina's. "Nina, its me, Abby, We went to that BS fashion gala together last time, remember?"

Nina didn't remember. There were hundreds of guests at that event, including a bunch of celebrities and influencers. However, since they'd be spending several days together, she nodded. "Abby, so nice to see you again. Of course, I remember

you."

Abby was thrilled and looked at Jonathan. "Nina and I are the same age. Can I call your name directly like she did?" Abby extended her hand to Jonathan. "Nice to meet you, Jonathan. I'm Abby."

Jonathan glanced at her coldly. "Who allowed you to call my name directly?"

Jonathan's voice was as sharp as a dagger, cutting through mercilessly. Abby was stunned. This was a live show, and she didn't expect Jonathan to be so blunt. "Mr. Bennett, I'm sorry."

[Hahaha, Abby is a sly one, trying to get close right from the start]

(A businessman is a businessman. You won't take advantage of them at all.]

II bet Abby wasn't that innocent. She needs a sugar daddy if you know what I mean.]

(Isn't it a bit much to talk about Abby like that? She's trying to be nice. That's all. Jonathan is so arrogant.]

Yeah, yeah, why does Abby call him Jonathan? Because she's trying to get close to him.]

Meanwhile, Jonathan's gaze swept across the room, finally landing on Cynthia and Preston

Actually, Jonathan was the only one among the guests who knew the guest list. So when Cynthia saw Jonathan and Nina were also on the show, she felt like a heavy stone was pressing down on her heart. She thought, "This wasn't a coincidence. Was her participation in this show planned, just like when she was sent to study at BCBT

Cynthia had already guessed that Freddie might be Whitney's mun. She wondered, 'Did Whitney find out about Nina and Jonathan joining the show and specifically place me here to ruin Nina and Jonathan's relationship? And what about Preston? Is he also part of her schemes?

Thinking this, Cynthia couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine. She tried everything to avoid stepping into the game Whitney set up, but unknowingly, she was already caught in it,

Preston was quite surprised. He didn't expect Jonathan and Ninato come over as well. Nina was his half-sister. But honestly, he had never really interacted with her before.

Although he hadn't changed his last name, it was because Gunther had promised him that as long as he kept the Sullivan name, he would inherit the whole property in the future. However, he grew up with the Bennett family and had hardly ever met Nina, his sister. When Preston looked at Nina, she was observing him too. However, there seemed to be a hint of fear in her eyes as she glanced at Preston. Instinctively, she hid slightly behind Jonathan

Nina was naturally afraid of Preston. After all, he was Whitney's biological son. From a young age, the name Whitney was like a nightmare, always gripping her throat every moment. If it weren't for Jonathan's constant protection, she had no idea how many times she would've died.

Jonathan started walking over and eventually stood in front of Preston and Cynthia. "Isn't Cynthia too busy to be doing variety shows? Is RNN not paying you enough?"

Jonathan's tone was neutral, but Cynthia caught the hidden meaning. She thought, Does he suspect she took money from Whitney to join the show and cause problems for him and his beloved?

Cynthia felt she could explain herself. But she didn't want to. Because she did not need to

So she replied in a neutral tone, "Mr. Bennett, look at this lovely pcean. It's just right for you to build a house here. You'd be perfect living by the sea."

Jonathan was speechless.

People who were watching became curious.

[What is she talking about?]

[Hahaha, this girl is brave. She means "It's none of your

business

[Yeah, that's hilarious]

[Looks like these two know each other, and there seems to be some drama between them]

Preston seemed to notice the awkward atmosphere. He knew Jonathan didn't like Cynthia. Jonathan always thought she had other motives for getting close to him.

Preston quickly explained to Cynthia, "The show's original guest couldn't come, so Cynthia stepped in at the last minute. It's part of her job."

Preston meant that Cynthia was here not for money or any hidden agenda, but because the TV station arranged it.

Jonathan's eyes deepered-He then looked at Preston and said in calm and steady voice, "And what about you?"

"... I came with Cynthia. Preston suddenly turned to Cynthia. "Cynthia, even though you didn't accept my confession, want to tell you, I'm a man, not a child. You have the right to reject me, and I have the right to pursue you. Cynthia, I like you."

Cynthia wished she could bury herself in the sand after Preston sudden confession. "Preston, you'd better knock it off, or Til hit you."

Preston put on an innocent puppy look, blinking at Cynthia with a pitiful expression. "Cynthia, could you bear to do that?"

Cynthia was speechless.

So was Jonathan.
