The eight dashing, handsome men—four adults and four small boys, participating in the fun activities caused a massive stir at the kindergarten. After one of the teachers uploaded a video of them playing with each other on the Internet, the number of followers on her social media account grew at an astounding rate.

Netizens all over the city sent private messages to the teacher asking her to upload more videos of the four little boys from the Huo family.

Some ambitious agent even made the mistake of asking Matthew whether he would allow his sons to make a public appearance at a dinner party.

It only took one cold glance from Matthew's eyes for the agent to make himself scarce almost immediately.

Just as Matthew had promised, after the autumn sports meeting of the four boys, he took Erica to M Country for a few days so she could take as many photos of the aurora as her heart desired.

After returning from a refreshing vacation at M Country, Erica went straight to work with her camera.

At the studio, Erica kept pressing the shutter, fingers dressed in a pair of white gloves. "Move a little to the right...move...move..."

"Erica Li!" The subject of Erica's photography, a ravishing beauty, called out to her angrily.

Erica pulled her face away from the camera and replied, "Miss Xia, you are so impatient! I feel bad for all the photographers that have had to work with you in the past!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Noreen glared at her angrily.

If it weren't for the fact that Dylan's previous group of photos had caused a sensation, Noreen wouldn't have been forced to ask her agent to contact EM.

However, it wasn't actually EM that Noreen had a problem with. She was just mad because no one had told her before that the best photographer in the industry right now was Erica.

"Do you want your photos taken or not? I don't have time to waste on you. There are still many people who are waiting for me to take photos of them!" Erica sneered. The contempt in her words clearly indicated that she did not even want to be in the same room as Noreen as the two of them were rivals in love. However, Erica couldn't let Matthew lose his face to Noreen for her sake.

Erica realized it would be better to rely on herself and figure things out on her own.

With an air of arrogance around her, Noreen rolled her eyes at Erica and said, "I'm thirsty. I need to take a break. Somebody, please get me a bottle of water."

The male assistant who was on standby next to her immediately brought a bottle of water

, Erica was already waiting for her. When she saw the woman coming in, Erica said angrily, "Where have you been? I'm giving you another chance. If you don't want to continue, I'll leave!"

Noreen's eyes swept over her face. Soon, Erica felt guilty as soon as Noreen took a few glances at her. She covered her guilt with impatience. "What are you looking at? Don't you hear what I said?"

An awkward silence permeated the air in the studio. This was the first time anyone who worked with Noreen watched someone else treat her like that. In fact, they had to admit that they felt great when Erica treated Noreen like that.

Although Noreen's agent was furious at Erica's attitude, it didn't matter. Since Noreen herself didn't want to fight back, her agent decided to avoid more problems.

This time, Noreen didn't argue with Erica. She returned to the front of the camera and continued to shoot with Erica.

After an hour and half, an exhausted Erica put down her camera and waved at Noreen's agent. "I'll go back to edit these photos on Photoshop. I'll give them to you in a week."

As she started to pack her equipment in her bag, a bodyguard quickly came over to help carry the camera bag and walked out of the studio.

The driver opened the car door for Erica. Just as she was about to get in, she was stopped. "Erica Li!" someone called out. Erica could tell that it was Noreen without turning back.

Erica turned around and looked at Noreen in confusion. "Isn't the shooting over? What is it now?"

With an unreadable smile on her face, Noreen walked towards her and said, "There's a coffee shop next door. Why don't we go there? I'd like to invite you to a cup of coffee, Mrs. Huo."
