The Priceless Bride: A Tycoon’s Obsession

Jim Cowper , his assistant, finished reporting his work with his head down, but did not receive a response for a long time.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

He looked up at the man beside him in confusion. Callum ‘s cigarette had burned to the end, but he had no intention of putting it out. His deep eyes fell on the screen. Jim followed his gaze and found that the person currently running first in the live broadcast of the marathon was a girl.

Wearing a green T-shirt and sneakers sponsored by ZL Group, she ran at a steady pace. Because of the intense exercise, she was sweating profusely and her face was as red as an apple. That “apple” made people want to… pinch it.

“Report to me what happened just now again!” Callum withdrew his gaze without knowing when, opened the document and immersed himself in work.

One hour and ten minutes later, Aurelia successfully surpassed the former marathon runner-up and rushed to the first place again! Because of her speed, the atmosphere around her was instantly lifted.

Many people from the School of Economics and Management started shouting, ” Aurelia , good job! Come on, come on!” When the students who couldn’t see heard that Aurelia was currently in first place, they also started shouting. The cheers were deafening.

After one hour and twenty minutes, when they were about to reach the third-to-last level, they heard a lot of exclamations from behind, and she also heard someone calling Larry ‘s name again.

Aurelia turned back panting. Briar and the others had already given up halfway. Only Larry , who was originally in sixth place , fell down somehow and tried to stand up several times but failed.

Aurelia swallowed and hesitated for a moment before turning around and rushing back amid everyone’s exclamations.

At the same time, the former marathon runner-up surpassed her and came in first place.

“Aurelia… Sheridan Buddy … don’t…” Never mind me. Before Larry could finish the last two words, Aurelia had already come in front of him and stretched out her hand to him.

Aurelia had already walked over, so Larry had to hold her hand and use her strength to stand up from the ground.

However, he seemed to have fallen quite badly. As soon as he stood up, the pain in his legs almost made Larry fall to his knees.

” Sheridan Buddy , listen to me… my legs… whoosh… I can’t run anymore, just run and leave me alone!”

Aurelia glanced at his bruised knee and said, ” Larry , it’s just a bruise… Keep it up!”

She and Larry have known each other for several years. He is a top student and often protects her in front of the teacher. How could she leave him alone at such a critical moment?

At Aurelia ‘s insistence, Larry gritted his teeth and started running.

The students who were cheering for them to cheer on now screamed, “Class monitor, Sheridan Buddy , you guys are awesome!”

” Aurelia , I love you!” What made everyone laugh was that this confession was shouted by a girl.

Aurelia pulled Larry and gradually overtook the people in front, and finally got third place, with Larry in fourth place.

Actor No. 961 gave up the first place for her classmates. Aurelia also became popular in the marathon.

The entire scene from beginning to end was seen by the man in the VIP room.

At this moment, the girl who got third place was dragged up by a dozen boys, thrown into the air, and then dropped down to be caught.

Callum’s lips curled up in a sneer, she was indeed not a serious woman, she was so good at seducing those naive men.

The award ceremony was held at the closing ceremony of the half marathon. I heard that the award was presented by Callum , the president of ZL Group .

In the dormitory

Aurelia had just laid down to rest for a while when she heard the name. She almost jumped out of bed. How could such a thing involve Callum ???

Cathy gave her a sympathetic look. “I have to say, you and Mr. Finnegan really, really have a connection! Aurelia, I’m really worried about you. You two might clash at the awards ceremony.”

Aurelia let out a sigh. They were destined to be together. After all, they were a couple tied together by a marriage certificate. “I won’t have a conflict with him. If I had known that he would be the one presenting the award, I wouldn’t have won first place. I would have given up the third place.” Anyway, as long as she didn’t win first place, she would have lost.

Liana blew on her nails. ” Aurelia , I’m actually quite envious of you. I envy that you and Mr. Finnegan have such a good relationship. But when I think about how you and Mr. Finnegan always confront each other, this kind of bad fate… I’m not envious anymore.” Aurelia is the only one who dares to confront Mr. Finnegan and is not afraid of being killed by him.

Could it be that the person behind Aurelia is more powerful than Callum ?

No… Liana quickly rejected the idea. Looking around, no one in Evercrest dared to challenge Callum !

Cathy lazily hugged the pillow, very confused, ” Sheridan Buddy , Mr. Finnegan is so handsome, shouldn’t you admire him every time you see him ? How come you don’t like each other?”

Aurelia ‘s smile froze for a moment. Wasn’t she obsessed with Callum ‘s looks at first? But her temper couldn’t stand his insinuation. Wasn’t it just a kiss? Women are the ones who suffer in such things, okay? She couldn’t understand how a grown man could be so stingy!

So… they just disliked each other.

“No, I just don’t understand, why is Callum everywhere , even at a marathon awards ceremony? Doesn’t he want his company anymore? Isn’t he a multinational CEO? Are all multinational CEOs so idle?” Aurelia couldn’t help but complain.

Cathy had to explain to her, ” Aurelia , the clothes, sports shoes, and prizes for the marathon we are participating in this time are basically provided by the ZL Group. Mr. Finnegan , the largest sponsor , must be present.”

“Also, the zl Group is very supportive of this kind of sports competitions. It is said that it has sponsored many sports events! For large-scale events like marathons, of course the zl Group cannot be absent.” Liana added.

As long as it’s about Callum , they usually pay attention to him! Who can blame him for being Evercrest’s most valuable bachelor, Felix ?

At the award ceremony, Aurelia stood calmly on the third place podium, and soon saw the man who made everyone scream.

Dressed in a dark suit and brand new black leather shoes, he walked onto the stage with steady steps, facing the golden rays of autumn light.

The domineering temperament exuded from his body, and his every move was also noble! Not to mention the crazy screams of the women in the audience, even Aurelia accidentally lost her mind.

Callum like this , without any tit-for-tat, he’s really super handsome! No wonder so many women are crazy about him…

The beautiful host couldn’t help but sparkle with her eyes, and shouted excitedly, “Now, please invite Mr. Finnegan to present the award to our champion first!”

When it was the third place’s turn, Callum and the etiquette lady walked towards Aurelia . Aurelia , who had been keeping her head down , had to raise her head to face the indifferent man. She finally pulled the corners of her lips with a fake smile.
