Chapter 232

In the world of film, investment is always welcomed.

To strengthen his bond with Susan, Eason discreetly approached Mr. Witt to make an additional investment.

The director, surprised and delighted to find someone other than Susan willing to believe in his vision, happily accepted.

Seizing the opportunity, Eason suggested participating in the film’s kick–off ceremony, to which Mr. Witt readily agreed.

On the day of the ceremony, Eason woke up early and began grooming himself meticulously.

First, he donned a suit, but upon looking in the mirror, he wondered if it was too formal. Might it intimidate Susan?

Switching to casual attire, he then grappled with whether it appeared too informal.

Was their

After all, if Susan really was his sister, this first formal meeting, and he couldn’t afford to take it lightly.

He wanted to make a great impression.

Eason tried on outfit after outfit, even consulting several professional stylists for their opinions.

Running out of time, he finally settled on a smart–casual sult.

“Mr. Nicholas, the car is ready,” his driver announced respectfully.

Just as Eason was about to leave, he remembered something and hurried back to grab a bottle of men’s cologne, spraying it generously over himself.

After a quick revisit to the bathroom for a toothbrushing and a spritz of mouth freshener, he ensured he smelled pleasant from head to toe before heading out.

Eason finally relaxed, telling himself, “This time, it should be perfect!”

He took a deep breath, stood tall, and walked out with confidence.

His last encounter with Susan at the amusement park had been too casual, without any careful preparation, and he had met her unexpectedly.

He wondered what impression he had left on Susan.

Fortunately, time was on his side, and he had plenty of opportunities to slowly build a connection with her.

In the car, the driver, curious about Tang’s constant mirror–checking, couldn’t resist asking, “Mr. Nicholas, are you

going to meet your love?”

“My love? It’s much more important than that,” Tang replied, his gaze softening.

He had searched for many who he thought might be his sister, but most of the time, he knew right away they weren’t her.

Although there were some physical resemblances, something always told him they weren’t his sister.

That’s why he didn’t rush to meet Susan initially.

He feared the disappointment.

However, their unexpected meeting a few days ago had left Eason feeling not only hopeful but extremely eager.

Even without a blood test, something deep inside him insisted. “It’s her; it must be her.“”

“Calm down. Stay calm.” Eason silently urged himself, taking deep breaths to settle his nerves.

An hour later, his car arrived at the filming location, set in a secluded area in the mountains.

Eason arrived two hours earlier than the appointed time.

When he got there, apart from the crew, no one else had arrived yet.
