Chapter 1264 – Mix Between Holy And Sinful
Iris snapped out of her momentary daze and rolled her eyes at her husband. "I'm just admiring a beauty. What's wrong with that?"
Jin Liwei's dark expression turned grim. "So you like him?"
She released an exasperated sigh. "How could I like him when I don't even know anything about him? I just think that he has a beautiful face, that's all. I'm also like this when I see a beautiful cat or dog, or better yet an excellent computer, so stop feeling jealous, okay?"
He felt a little better after her explanation but his stance became much more protective over his wife as René Alejandro and the beautiful, blue-eyed foreign man made their way to them.
"I think he's the one called Boss Emil," Iris whispered to him.
It was the name that she heard the other foreigner whispered to René Alejandro before they excused themselves in a hurry earlier.
Jin Liwei hadn't been interested before, but now that he saw this attractive man presumably called Boss Emil with his own eyes, he instantly became wary.
It was very rare for his wife to become stunned upon seeing an attractive man. He had seen what her brother, Nikolai Vetrov, looked like in a photo. His brother-in-law's appearance in his past life was no joke. Even a man like Jin Liwei had to admit that Nikolai Vetrov was a gorgeous man. Being around an attractive man like her brother had made Iris, no, Evelina immune to other good-looking men.
If not for Jin Liwei's relentless pursuit of his wife, he knew that Iris wouldn't fall for him based on his looks alone. He was aware that he was a handsome man but knew that he couldn't compare to his brother-in-law's past life's appearance.
Even another good-looking man like René Alejandro didn't move his wife. Maybe this was why Jin Liwei didn't feel as wary towards the Spaniard as he was now feeling with the arrival of this extremely beautiful man.
Jin Liwei didn't care if other people were stunned by the new arrival but it was a different story when it involved his wife. Her unusual reaction was enough to raise Jin Liwei's inner alarm bells.
"My, ooooooh my!!!" Wei Lan clutched her chest, unable to stop herself from ogling the beautiful, blue-eyed foreigner. "René, my dear, why don't you introduuuuuuuce us to your friend heeeeeeeeeeere?"
Like her, Randy looked like he had just seen a mouth-watering piece of prime meat that he couldn't wait to gobble up. It wasn't only them who were reacting this way. The surrounding guests—ladies and even a few men—couldn't conceal their lecherous gazes.
René Alejandro began introducing the beautiful man.
"Everyone, please meet my…uh, older brother. His name is Emilio Miguel. Like me and many of my brothers, he's also an orphan that Papá sponsored and sent to school to be educated."
"But René Alejandro is the only one who was lucky enough to be legally adopted by the vizconde," the beautiful man commented before smoothly saying, "A pleasure to meet all of you. Emilio Miguel at your service."
If René Alejandro's smile was charmingly criminal, then Emilio Miguel's smile was instant murder. It was deadly.
Many felt their minds go blank as if they had just died and gone to heaven.
What kind of smile was that?
It felt a little sacrilegious to even look directly at him. His appearance was so angelic that he didn't seem real at all.
"Mother, pull yourself together," Iris murmured to Wei Lan who was on the verge of passing out after Emilio Miguel's smile.
Fortunately, Randy hadn't completely lost all of his reasoning yet and was able to catch Wei Lan and support her before she could embarrass herself. Iris was relieved.
Although Iris didn't feel close to Wei Lan, she wouldn't want her body's recognized biological mother to be the subject of blatant humiliation from others. No matter how unpleasant Wei Lan could be most of the time, it was a fact that she doted on Little Jun, encouraged Jiang Ying Yue to be more confident, and was now a rather competent ambassador for Iris of Hope. For these alone, Iris was willing to tolerate the woman.
This was why she didn't want Wei Lan to be seen swooning at a young, attractive man when she had been working hard in presenting a new image of herself as a dedicated and loving wife to her new husband, especially since the younger man was apparently a close brother of her step-son.
It took Wei Lan some time to recover. Iris, however, was no longer affected by Emilio Miguel's face. It was only during the first time earlier that she had fallen prey to the man's otherworldly angelic beauty.
She was reluctant but could only admit that Emilio Miguel was the best-looking person that she had ever seen in both of her lives so far. Even her older brother, the gorgeous Nikolai Vetrov, hadn't been as stunning as this person.
Emilio Miguel faced Iris and Jin Liwei. His smile was a mix between holy and sinful.
After some more polite greetings, Emilio Miguel joined their table. Unlike René Alejandro who engaged Jin Liwei in conversations more while ensuring to maintain appropriate distance from Iris, Emilio Miguel was the opposite. He was clearly more interested in Iris. This caused Jin Liwei's expression to turn grimmer by the second.
When the auction finally started, René Alejandro kicked Emilio Miguel's foot under the table. They communicated via taps in their arms using their organization's own code.
"What the hell are you doing?! Stop trying to seduce Iris and angering Liam! If you cause me to fail my mission, your punishment will not be lighter than mine, no?!"
"Relax, my brother." Emilio Miguel silently communicated with his angelic smile. "I just now understand why Liam rejected the business elite Rose Young in favour of this starlet Iris Long. This woman looks delicious. I wonder if she's a better fuck than Rose Young. I'm curious about how she'll taste. Maybe…."
René Alejandro shot him a brief glare that lasted for less than a second. "Don't even think about it."
The extremely beautiful man shrugged his shoulders.. His face was heavenly but his attitude was devil-may-care.
