Chapter 2523

Shirley settled into a cozy booth with the heating on, feeling the warmth her coat provided. She

unfastened her belt and slipped out of her coat, revealing a captivating blue dress that radiated her

charming and elegant beauty.

Tony had just ordered a set meal from the waiter. When he turned around, he saw her sitting on the red

couch. Her alluring blue sweater dress was sensual and captivating, making her look like a wild and

untamed cat.

Yet, beneath the allure, there was a palpable danger emanating from her. Shirley’s presence quickly

drew the attention of those around her, particularly the men. They were like predators, captivated by her

uniqueness and irresistibly drawn to her. Their gazes remained fixed on her, reflecting an eagerness to

embark on an adventure with her.

Sensing the attention of the men around her, she locked eyes with them, her cool gaze communicating a

sense of conquest. This girl embodied a wild, captivating beauty that was worth the risk despite her

initially aloof demeanor.

The men had grown tired of the ordinary, docile girls and found her wild, untamed charm all the more

captivating. However, their assessment was somewhat off the mark. She was not a mere wildcat; she

was a dangerous wild. leopard.

Soon, their meal arrived. It featured a fruit platter and a variety of beverages, with a wide selection that

would undoubtedly satisfy anyone looking to drink and unwind.

Squinting her eyes, Shirley selected a bottle and poured herself half a glass. Tony quickly followed suit,

raising his glass. “Goddess, for now, forget everything else and just enjoy the moment. Here’s to you.”

She clinked glasses with him and took a sip. The fiery liquor stung her throat, but she welcomed the

sensation, seeking excitement to elevate her mood.

Shirley pondered whether getting drunk could offer solace, help her come to terms with her situation, or

perhaps uplift her spirits. After downing half a glass, she ventured to sample another type of alcohol. It

was precisely at this moment that some of Tony’s friends approached. Among them was a wealthy heir

who showed a keen interest in her.

Accompanied by two girls, the trio of young men appeared. Two of them already had their arms wrapped

around the girls, which left the wealthy young man without a companion. His earlier female companion

had been dismissed to make room for his interest in getting to know Shirley.

“Tony, you didn’t invite us. What? Do you think you’re too good for us?”

Tony chuckled and responded, “Come on, guys! I just made plans with a friend.”

“Hey, where did you make this friend? We haven’t seen her before.” Derek Gaines, the wealthy young

man, approached Tony and, while casually draping an arm around his shoulder, fixed his gaze on

Shirley, scrutinizing her. In his eyes, Shirley exuded an undeniable allure, and he was convinced that his

wealth and influence could effortlessly win her over.

“What’s your name, Miss?” Derek asked with a direct smile.

“I’m not interested in getting to know you,” Shirley replied coldly. Sensing an intrusion on their peaceful

evening, Tony swiftly intervened, saying, “My friend prefers a quiet environment. Why don’t you all leave

for now?”

“Oh! This kind of personality is what I like!” Derek not only didn’t leave but also started showing off his

authority.

Shirley frowned, frustrated that her desire to enjoy her drink was disrupted. She urged Tony, “Tony,

please ask them to leave.”

Tony turned to Derek, reaffirming her wishes, “Did you hear that? My friend wants you to leave.”

Derek raised an eyebrow and countered, “Tony, your friend is our friend.” He extended his hand toward

Shirley and introduced himself, “Let me introduce myself. I’m the Vice President of Starlight Group, and

my dad is the President. Let’s be friends.”

Uninterested, she didn’t even bother to look at Derek. At that moment, Tony felt the urge to use the

restroom and told her, “Goddess, I need to use the restroom.”

“Go ahead! I’ll take good care of your friend.” Derek seized the opportunity to keep Tony away for a

while, hoping to get closer to Shirley.

As Tony left, Derek promptly shifted over and sat down closer to Shirley. She was wearing a tight skirt,

and her long, slender legs caught his attention. He immediately swallowed hard while appreciating the

beauty of her legs.
