Chapter 728 You Can't Judge a Book by Its Cover
Blinking, Chloe asked, "A man's lover? You mean the kind I'm thinking of?"
"Yes. A man," Noah replied calmly.
Her lips twitched, and she seemed puzzled. "Seriously? He doesn't strikeas that kind of person. How could
he..."
She had read sreports about Michael. He cfrom a wealthy family, and his journey to fwas
inspirational. It was hard to believe that he would compromise himself like that.
Sensing Chloe's doubt, Noah continued, "Speople are like that. You can't judge a book by its cover."
"Maybe you're right." Chloe shrugged. "Xavia’s that way too."
She did not hold much attachment to Michael and was simply curious about it. He was just Exotic Star's
cooperative partner. If things did not work out with him, they could replace him.

Noah watched Chloe return to her bedroom before heading to the bathroom to freshen up. The large mirror
reflected a sophisticated and gentle young man with impeccable features and a warm, amiable demeanor. But
upon closer scrutiny, the smile on his face appeared somewhat forced and lacked genuine warmth.

Early the next morning, Chloe went to work as usual. Shortly after the morning meeting, Michael showed up. She
was surprised and had her secretary bring two cups of coffee.
"I watched the live stream yesterday. Why didn't you letappear on camera? Did | do something wrong?"
Michael humbly inquired.
Chloe recalled what Noah said last night and felt a little embarrassed to look into Michael's eyes. "After some
discussion, Exotic Star decided to use our in-house livestreamer. Suddenly changing hosts might not sit well with
the audience. So, we've decided to stick with our in-house livestreamer."
"| see. Well then, if there's a chance, I'd like to give it a try. After all, I've been a livestreamer before and | won't
charge any fees," Michael said, not willing to give up on the girl he had grown fond of. He hoped to build a
relationship with her through work. Besides, there were two other high-quality men around her, so he had to
seize every opportunity he could.
Feeling the sincerity in his words, Chloe found it difficult to reject him outright. After all, he was a well-known
celebrity who was humble and easy to work with. If it were not for Noah's instructions, she might have agreed.
But in the end, she found a reason to turn down his kind offer.
Michael did not continue to pester her, but he did sense a change in how she treated him. As soon as he stepped
out of her office, he called his agent to ask if he had left a bad impression on anyone at Exotic Star.
From a corner, Noah was chatting with a designer when he looked up and saw Michael walking out of Chloe's
office. He narrowed his eyes and raised his hand to interrupt the designer. "Wait here for a moment."
"You have plenty of other commercial performances scheduled, if Exotic Star doesn't work out, we can switch to
another agency. It's not like we can't earn money elsewhere,” Michael's agent said.
"You don't understand. It's not about money," Michael replied.
"What do you mean?"
"There's a girl at Exotic Star that | quite like. My family is pressuring me, and | would like to get married."

"Who is she? | have to assess her. | can't let you be with someone with a complicated background."
"You don't have to worry about that. I'll make my own decisions regarding my private life."
After hanging up the phone, Michael felt a sudden chill behind him. He turned around to look, but there was
nothing there. Assuming that he was overthinking things, he went to his car.

At 6 in the afternoon, after a long hard day of work, office workers turned to their phones to watch some
entertainment videos. Suddenly, a pop-up about Michael being the secret lover of a wealthy businessman
appeared on their screens. There were also a few blurry photos attached at the end of the article, and it instantly
becthe most trendy topic of the day.
Chloe also saw the pop-up. She enlarged the photos and stared at them but could not clearly identify whether
the person in them was Michael. However, several netizens analyzed the photos extensively and sclaimed
to have witnessed Michael staying at a hotel with an overweight man.
She felt something was amiss. Noah had mentioned this just last night, and today, it was suddenly exposed so
quickly. It all seemed too coincidental.
