Chapter 743 An Opportunity


    Caroline''s assistant, Gray Pei, was already standing by the roadside, waving at Michelle as soon as


    she arrived. She quickly trotted over to him.


    Gray peered at his watch and said, "You''re just in time. Let''s go and finish this shoot quickly."


    "Alright." Michelle followed after him. "So what are we going to shoot? Oh, I almost forgot that


    Caroline will be shooting tonight. It''s for a popr magazine cover, right?"


    "Yes, but she''s almost done with that. So now, we need to shoot a female model who is Caroline''s


    friend. Caroline rmended you for the job. You should be d that Caroline is helping you.


    Don''t let this opportunity slip away," Gray said, sounding a bit envious.


    Since she came back from abroad, Michelle had been working at Caroline''s studio for half a month.


    Even though she had experience working with popr celebrities abroad, she still had no


    connections here.


    During that time, she had only been assigned with menial tasks. Each time she saw Caroline


    shooting, she could feel the tendrils of jealousy rising up within her.


    But now, here was her chance!


    There was fire in her wide eyes, showing just how happy and pleased she was.


    "Is this true?" she eximed.


    "Yes, it''s true. Caroline called you personally. So of course, it''s really happening," Gray said with a


    smile.


    "Oh my God! This is great news! Thank you very much!" Michelle couldn''t contain her excitement


    any longer. She grabbed Gray''s arm and urged, "Hurry up. Let''s go in."


    Gray was a tall man, but he was helpless against Michelle''s enthusiasm. Even though she was a


    petite girl, she was able to drag him into the room.


    Midway through, she suddenly stopped, remembering something. "Oh, I don''t have anything with


    me."


    "Don''t worry. Caroline has already prepared everything for you."


    Michelle smiled in relief. "Caroline is so kind!"


    "Indeed. So don''t let her down, okay? You better behave well today. This photo shoot might just be


    your big break. And if everything turns out great, you might get more projects in the future."


    "Noted!" Michelle let go of his arm. With a serious expression, she nodded. Her fists clenched tightly


    at her sides.


    The site was in a warehouse. Everything had already been set up a week ago. For now, it was quiet


    and almost empty. There was only the sound of the leaves as the wind blew.


    The streetmps were dimly lit, but Michelle could still see the street clearly. Her stomach growled


    loudly enough for Gray to hear. This made him ask if she had already eaten, but she didn''t seem to


    care about food at all.


    A group of people passed by Michelle and Gray. They seemed annoyed, talking rudely as they


    walked by.


    But nothing could faze her excitement. She didn''t care about food or the group of rude passers-by.


    They had made sure that the warehouse would be empty when they rented it. They didn''t


    understand why there were gangsters here.


    Gray had already seen this group of people back when he went to pick up Michelle. They were


    beating up a man at a corner. He didn''t want to get into trouble so he ignored them. When he saw


    them again, he couldn''t help but grumble, "What the hell?"


    One of the gangsters stopped upon hearing Gray muttering. He turned around and spat at Gray.


    "Mind your own business. You better shut your mouth if you don''t want trouble."


    Gray wasn''t expecting the group to hear him. He immediately shut up and quickened his pace,


    pretending as if nothing had happened.


    The leader of the group then turned around, spotting Michelle just as they were about to turn right.


    The streetmp seemed to reflect on her smiling face, making her shine like the moon.


    "Fuck!" Victor was awestruck.


    One of his followers leaned over and asked, "Do you know her? Is she your new girlfriend? But


    there''s a man walking beside her. Is he trying to steal your girl?"


    "Don''t talk nonsense and fuck off!" Victor red at his follower. He knew that Tim liked that woman.


    If Tim heard what the man just said, he would definitely beat him up.


    "She''s not my type."


    "Yes, that''s right. You prefer sexy women with big breasts and thin waist."


    "Sexy? Victor likes that tough woman who beat him upst time."


    Everyone elseughed.


    They continued to walk forward.


    But Victor was quick to kick their asses. "What are you talking about? No woman can control me. I


    can beat her to submission one day. Anyway, you should go ahead first. I have to call Mr. Shen."


    He stopped and took out his phone. Upon dialing Tim''s number, he sat down beneath a streetmp.


    "Are you done with your task?" Tim''s cold voice came through the phone.


    "We caught him and beat him up before he could get in his house. He promised to pay back the


    money this week. I was afraid that he would run away again so I went inside his house to talk to his


    wife and child. He would never dare attempt to escape again." Victor pulled out a cigarette, ced it


    between his lips, and lit it up with a lighter.


    "Don''t drag his wife and child into this," Tim said coldly.


    Taking a deep breath, Victor pulled the cigarette from his lips and let out a trail of smoke. "Don''t


    worry. I won''t.


    I didn''t even touch his wife and child. I just talked to them a bit. I asked his wife where she works


    and where the child studies. In fact, I was a very cordial guest. You should have seen the look on


    his face. It''s like he was going to eat shit."


    "Don''t say that! I''m eating at the moment," Tim shouted.


    Victorughed. He then nced at the ce where hest saw Michelle. "By the way, I just saw


    Michelle a while ago. She was walking with a man. Don''t worry. The man is not as handsome, tall,


    or even powerful as you. Do you want toe over? I''ll wait here and keep an eye on her for you."


    "Okay then. I''ll be there soon."


    Victor smiled. "You should bring your coat."


    "You are so annoying."


    Before Victor could say anything else, the other man had already hung up the phone. The


    monotonous beep was the only thing he could hear.


    Tim arrived within thirty minutes. He didn''t even bother driving inside the site. Instead, he just


    parked his car by the roadside.


    Victor ran towards the car as soon as he received Tim''s phone call. He leaned over the window and


    peered inside. Tim was only wearing a shirt and a vest.


    "You didn''t bring your coat with you." Victor opened the door and got inside.


    Tim snorted.


    "When I told you to bring your coat, I wasn''t worried that you''d get cold. I wanted to teach you how


    to pick up women. The evening wind is usually very cold. You can use that opportunity to put your


    coat around Michelle. This way, you will have an excuse to see her again." Victor seemed to be an


    expert when it came to flirting.


    Tim nced at him and said, "Go on."


    "That''s the reason why I asked you to bring your coat. You can lend it to Michelle. And then she''ll


    ask to meet up with you again to return it. And on your next meeting, you can leave something


    behind, so you''ll ask to meet up with her again. Rinse and repeat. Then, you''ll end up meeting again


    and again. Before you know it, the two of you will fall in love."

    Victor raised both his thumbs and pressed them together. It was like a couple kissing. He raised his


    eyebrows and grinned.


    Tim nodded in understanding. "Get out of the car."


    "What? What are you nning to do?" Victor was confused.


    "You''re going to buy me a coat. Hurry up," Tim said, throwing his wallet at Victor''sp.
