Baby Cupid: Could You Be My New Mommy (or Miss, My Father loves you)

Chapter 8 The Woman He Was Obsessed With

The party that Jackson hosted was held in one of the Boss Club's private rooms. The dim lights made the place mysterious and inviting. This, along with the lively beat of the music, gave people a sense of rush and excitement.

The room was filled with scantily-clad women. Every woman tried their best to impress the director.

Everyone except Daryl.

Five years of married life made Daryl conservative and introverted. She had been struggling with her selfesteem for as long as she could remember. She was too shy to wear halter tops and short skirts. Besides, she wasn't too keen on showing off the marks that the strange man had left on her body that night.

She picked for herself a long, white dress partnered with high heels. She hadn't worn high heels for five years. She tried her hardest to relax. Jackson had seen countless women. He might not even remember her. She kept reminding herself that no matter what Jackson did to her, she would endure it.

In the private room,

Jackson, with a flattering smile on his face, sat at the table. There were countless of pictures of beauties laid down on it. He gazed at the pictures and rubbed his chin. "Mr. Ji, what did you think of these women? Is there anyone to your liking?"

A man was resting in the middle of the sofa. Anyone who looked at him would immediately know that he was of great stature. He didn't open his mouth, but the pressure he gave off was palpable. Jackson wasn't discouraged by the lack of response. He continued in a flattering voice, "There's still one person left. I swear she is a beauty. Would you like to have her interviewed in person, Mr. Ji?" Jackson's eyes lit up when he saw the last photo. He swallowed unconsciously.

Emily Gu was 25 years old a little older compared to the other girls, but she possessed grace and charm that was undeniable despite her age.

She had a delicate face alongside her perfect figure. Her skin must be as white as ivory under all those clothes. If she took them off, people would be enchanted.

How sweet would it be if he managed to get his hands on her?

However, the more Jackson looked at Emily Gu, the more he felt a nagging sense of familiarity.

Daryl pushed the door open and entered the room. What she saw had left her stunned. Under the neon light, she saw a familiar face.
