Evil MC's NTR Harem - Chapter 359

Chapter 359: Chapter 359 Notebook
Emma went home that night with a card containing 100 million dollars.

“If I’d known it was this easy to get money, should I have spread my legs sooner?” Emma joked to herself privately, then shook her head in dismissal.

She just got lucky that Ross kept his word.

More than that, she was shocked by what Ross had told her. He had no plans to play in any NBA game until the play-in tournament.

He knew his team wasn’t great, but that didn’t bother him. He was confident they would make it through the play-ins this coming April.

He didn’t care how they got there because he was certain he’d end up as the champion anyway.

That confidence struck Emma as both inspiring and a little reckless. She couldn’t help but admire Ross’s determination, even if it came off as arrogance.

She wondered what it must feel like to be so sure of your own success, to carry that level of self-assurance.

Emma just hoped that Ross was really going to pull it off.

A week later, Hazel finally returned to Ross’s house. Ross was thrilled to see her and dedicated a lot of time to training her again.

Their nights were far from dull, always filled with passion and endless intimacy.

But it wasn’t just physical; there was a deeper connection forming between them.

They talked about their dreams, their fears, and the future they envisioned.

Another week passed, and final exams took place. While everyone struggled, Ross’s tutoring had made even the toughest lessons manageable.

Unsurprisingly, the entire group passed with flying colors.

“So, where should we spend our Christmas vacation, Ross?” one of his wives asked after the exams.

“Do we stay here in the city with family? Or maybe a big reunion?” another suggested.

“Or explore a new city?”

Ross thought for a moment before replying, “Nah, I want to go home and see my parents. I’d also love to celebrate my birthday there.”

“Oh? You’re planning to celebrate your birthday at home?” one asked curiously.

“Yeah, it’s the perfect way to end 2024,” Ross said with a smile.

With the plan decided, everyone began packing.

Althea’s pregnancy was becoming more obvious, though Mari’s wasn’t showing yet.

Ross had already decided to marry Mari in a couple of months but has not told anyone yet about it.

That too will come later.

Ross couldn’t help but laugh at the negativity he received online.

The criticism didn’t bother him—he knew it stemmed from envy.

While others wasted time talking behind keyboards, he had almost two dozen stunning women by his side. Their opinions didn’t matter to him.

Ross had everything he wanted, and that was the end of the story for his detractors.

Three days later, the group arrived in Mirfield Town, instantly becoming the center of attention.

“Wow! So it’s true!”

“Ross really managed to snag all those beautiful women!”

“How? He’s not that handsome!”

“I’m better-looking than him.”

“Yeah? But are you rich? That’s the real question.”

“You can’t even afford new shoes, smh.”

The townsfolk buzzed with gossip, their curiosity fueled further by the media, who trailed Ross and his entourage relentlessly.

However, with hundreds of bodyguards ensuring their security, not even a mosquito could get close.

“Where are they staying? Ross’s old house isn’t big enough for all of them.”

“They’ve booked the hotel in the center of town.”

“Good. I’ll sneak a peek at them later.”

The arrival of Ross and his group had become the hottest topic in Mirfield, and the townspeople couldn’t stop talking about it.

This Christmas brought some unexpected visitors to Ross’s home.

“Are you really happy with him, Mom?” Ryan asked, his voice heavy with emotion.

“I am,” Jade replied firmly. She loved her son dearly, but he was an adult now, and she had chosen to prioritize her own happiness.

There was still a lingering sadness over her breakup with Henry, but Jade had embraced this new path and was prepared to live with the consequences of her decisions.

“And Natalie? Is she happy here?” Ryan asked again, his heart aching as memories of their failed relationship resurfaced.

“She’s here. Why don’t you ask her yourself?” Jade suggested.

“…” Ryan could only manage a sad smile as he shook his head in silent resignation.

Iris’s daughters, Madeline and Alicia, had also joined the gathering, their emotions a mix of confusion and disbelief.

“I can’t believe Dad agreed to this madness, Mom!” Madeline exclaimed, pacing back and forth.

“Seriously! He’d sooner drop a missile on your head than let you be with another man!” Alicia added, crossing her arms in frustration.

Their father, Karl Davies, had always been a proud and stubborn man.

For him to accept such a monumental change in their family dynamic was unthinkable.

Yet, as the sisters had observed, their father had drowned himself in work, avoiding all conversations about Iris. His silence spoke volumes.

“It’s not easy for any of us,” Iris admitted with a sigh.

“But your father and I have already talked this through. What’s done is done.” Iris’s voice wavered slightly, betraying the sadness she felt.

Madeline shook her head. “It just doesn’t feel real. Dad acts like you don’t even exist anymore.”

“It’s his way of coping,” Iris replied gently, though the weight of her words lingered. She quickly changed the subject.

“Anyway, let’s not dwell on the past. How are you two doing? Tell me everything.”

The shift in topic was deliberate, and though Madeline and Alicia still had questions, they relented.

The tension eased slightly as the conversation moved to lighter subjects.

Meanwhile, the festive atmosphere in town buzzed with reunions and excitement.

However, amidst the celebrations, something unexpected and significant was about to unfold.

Outside the hotel, a thin, malnourished young man approached one of Ross’s bodyguards.

The guards were an imposing presence, dressed uniformly in black suits and dark sunglasses, their towering builds making them unmistakable.

“Is Ross inside?” the boy asked, his voice small but steady.

The guard, towering over the boy, looked him over briefly before replying. “Yes, he is.”

“Can you tell him his best friend Alvin is here to see him?” the young man said, his tone hopeful yet tinged with nervousness.

The bodyguard paused, tilting his head slightly as if listening to an unseen communication through his earpiece.

After a moment, he nodded.

“You may enter. Please follow me,” the guard said firmly, stepping aside and gesturing for Alvin to follow.

Alvin’s eyes lit up with a mixture of relief and anticipation as he followed the towering guard through the hotel doors.

He had come with a purpose, one that might just change everything in his life.
