Chapter 197
Plop. Annalise fell. Her posture was painfully awkward. She looked like she was eating dirt. The two photographers had just been taking a beautiful video of the couple skiing from afar. But the footage of Annalise falling had also been recorded.
The two photographers discussed with each other. “Should we send this to Simon later?” “Of course, why not? Let me tell you, this will draw even more attention. It’s just like how people make movies. The behind-the-scenes highlights are the best.”
“Will Mrs. Parks blame us if she sees such ugly photos of her on Twitter?” “Oh, yeah. That’s a problem. Let’s show it to her later and ask her.” “Okay.” Meanwhile… When Julian saw that Annalise had fallen, his heart suddenly ached. He immediately slid over and sat before Annalise, reaching out to help her.
Annalise was kneeling. Her head was buried in the snow. Julian became even more anxious. “Annie, how are you? Does it hurt? Where does it hurt? Let me see if it’s serious.” Annalise still did not speak. Julian became even more anxious and raised his voice slightly. “Annalise, how is it? Don’t scare me.”
Annalise suddenly raised her head and made a cheeky face at Julian. Then, she chuckled. “Haha!” When Julian heard Annalise’s laughter, his heart relaxed. His nervousness from before immediately vanished. But he was still afraid she had hurt herself from the fall. “Do you feel any pain or discomfort anywhere?” he asked her.
“Don’t worry. I’m fine. It doesn’t hurt anywhere.” Annalise wanted to get up. Julian immediately said, “Wait a minute. Let me take a closer look.” He patiently reached out and pinched Annalise’s leg. As he pinched, he asked, “Does it hurt?” “Haha. It doesn’t. It doesn’t hurt…” Julian pinched her leg until it felt ticklish. She wanted to laugh.
“Really?” “Really,” Annalise said. “Okay. That’s good. Let’s stop skiing and rest over there,” Julian said. “No… Let’s keep skiing,” Annalise said. “I don’t want you to get tired. Let’s rest for a while.”
“I’m not tired. I just warmed up. Let’s go.” Annalise got up from the ground. Julian immediately propped her up. They prepared to continue skiing. Then, one of the photographers shouted, “Mrs. Parks.” Annalise looked at the photographer with a smile. “What’s the matter?”
The photographers ran over and handed the camera to Annalise. They told Annalise that they had just captured her falling, and her posture looked awkward. They asked if they should send it to the assistant Simon. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
They had yet to mention the behind-the-scenes idea. Annalise had already seen the photo of her falling into the snow. She burst out laughing. “This has to be uploaded. People love authentic things.” “Alright,” the two photographers replied immediately, glad to hear Annlise’s approval.
Julian and Annalise continued skiing. Simon received another set of photos and videos. Seeing Annalise fall to the ground in the snow, Simon burst into laughter. He had wanted to ask Annalise if such an unflattering photo could be posted. But the photographer told him that they had already asked Mrs. Parks. Simon should post it. Simon was relieved. Immediately, he uploaded the photos and short videos.
Afterward, he saw that the number of followers on their Twitter account had increased even more. The comment section was also going off the rails. “Pfft. Hahaha. Anna is so cute. Isn’t she?” “Of course! How could she look so silly and cute at the same time? Haha.” “I can’t take it anymore. I like her so much. How can she be so cute?”
“Julian is so handsome and affectionate. Oh, god. I want to fall in love, too. The way he checks Anna’s legs is so full of love.” “Most importantly, he’s so cold to any other women, but he’s so warm toward her. That’s the best kind of man. He only has eyes for her.” “Haha. There’s no surprise there. Who told her to be so distracted, looking at a handsome man?” “Haha. I’m dying of laughter.”
“Oh, no. I’m itching to go shopping again. Every time I see them being lovey-dovey, I can’t help but want to buy a couple’s outfit. I’m single, but I love buying those outfits. Is there something wrong with me?”
“Don’t worry. I’m the same as you. I’m also single, but I like buying couples’ outfits that look like theirs. I specially chose the Number 180. I know that someday I’ll find a husband that looks like Julian.” “Come on, babe. Let’s place an order and make a wish together. Let’s keep looking and fall in love soon.” “Let’s buy!” Simon could not finish scrolling through the comments at all.
Before he finished reading the comments, he noticed a seemingly endless number of new orders had arrived. They were restocking more and more frequently. He ordered 5,000 units every time, but it would sell out in less than 20 minutes. Many also complained that they could not buy those clothes in time. They had to rely on the speed of their fingers to make a purchase. It was not friendly at all.
At that moment, Timothy was drinking coffee at Jadeborough cafe with the person he met at his villa that day Even for coffee, he still covered himself tightly. He wore a cap, a scarf, and sunglasses. If he were not having coffee, he would not have taken off his mask.
“Our sales have finally increased these few days,” Timothy said with a smile. He used to be so anxious that he could not sleep. Now that he had invested in a large number of shops, sales had indeed increased rapidly.
The mysterious person did not say anything. He picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip. He scrolled through his phone and looked at the latest updates on Julian and Annalise. He saw that the number of orders on their Twitter account was increasing crazily, so he put his phone in front of Timothy. Timothy immediately looked at his phone.
When Timothy saw that Annalise’s Twitter account had attracted even more followers, he frowned and said, “Annalise is so lucky. Everything good comes to her. She has no family background, but she
married into my
family. She has never attended school, but she can write well. She doesn’t have any presentable gifts, but she was lucky enough to obtain a bottle of Energizing Pill and gifted it away. She doesn’t have any medical skills, but she has someone like Jonathan protecting her.”
The mysterious person’s voice rose slightly. “Tell me. Is it possible that all of us have underestimated her? Everything you’ve mentioned could have come to pass because she is capable.”
“That’s impossible. How can the Energizing Pill be hers? Didn’t you see it this morning? She said that she was the one who performed the surgery, but Jonathan entered the operating theater with her. Besides, she came. out a few minutes earlier than Gwen. How is that possible? Gwen is a real medical doctor Moreover, Gwen is an internationally renowned surgeon. If Jonathan didn’t perform the surgery, how could she be faster than Gwen?”
“Let’s wait and see.” The mysterious person took another sip of coffee and said, “Whether Annalise is the real deal or not, time will tell. When the traditional and modern medicine symposium is over, we’ll know whether she’s truly capable.”
