After visiting the Friends of Finn organization, Arthur left a donation of 100,000 US dollars, and in order to thank Arthur for his generosity, Amanda was very happy to invite Arthur to dinner.

"...I treat you as a friend to tell the truth..." At the dinner table, Arthur said solemnly.

And Amanda, who has been amused by Arthur's various jokes and humor, has a smile on her face, her beautiful eyes are wide open, and she is very seriously waiting for Arthur's next words.

"I never found myself so handsome."

"Puff-chuck..."

Seeing the trembling Amanda smiling, Arthur also had a bright smile on his face. To be honest, he really didn't expect that Amanda's smile would be so easy to get.

You know, most of what he said tonight was British-style cold humor. Let's tell a joke, I didn't want to laugh, only the rhythm of embarrassment. . .

But fortunately, every time Amanda can get these cold and humorous jokes, he can make Amanda laugh endlessly.

A man's humor, like a woman's good figure, is a natural attraction to the opposite sex.

I have to say that Arthur's style and humor really made Amanda fall a bit, and her affection for Arthur is constantly rising. You know, when you are with a man with a sense of humor, life is full of comedies, and life is full of fun. Have a little luck and be full of happiness.

"I really had a good time today, Arthur, you are a humorous gentleman." After dinner, when Amanda and Arthur enjoyed the dessert together, they looked at Arthur with a smile and praised softly .

"Thank you, you didn't treat me as a rogue, but your beauty and charm made me unable to help myself, I couldn't control myself, I couldn't bear my excitement, I couldn't help but want to do something to leave you Next good impression." Arthur didn't hide his feelings, but spoke very frankly what was almost a confession.

Hearing Arthur's words, Amanda's beautiful eyes became extremely bright, and she looked at Arthur's gaze at her, two touches of red glow appeared on her fair cheeks, she suddenly smiled, and blinked like a flower blooming, Jiao smiled and said: "You are dishonest, you have a girlfriend, you shouldn't confess your love to another girl."

"Feel sorry,

I'm just telling the truth, I can't deceive my emotions, and I don't need to deceive, even if I close my mouth, joy will overflow from the corners of my eyes and brows, and I can't hide it. I have been entangled before, afraid that you know, afraid that you don't know, and even more afraid that you will pretend not to know. So, when we parted, I decided to confess. "Arthur said very brazenly that any woman would be touched.

Sure enough, upon hearing these love words, Amanda's playful and pretty face was also moved. After a long silence, Amanda smiled brightly and said to Arthur: "I'm a little tired..."

"I'll take you home." Arthur still kept smiling, and stood up to help Amanda move the chair. The distance between the two was less than one meter. Arthur smelled the charming fragrance of Amanda, and instinctively took a deep breath a bit.

Feeling the deep breath behind her, Amanda turned her head and gave Arthur a charming and coquettish look, but was not angry about it.

Aware of Amanda's tolerance for some small ambiguities, Arthur knew that the other party also had a good impression of him, so when the two left the restaurant together, Arthur naturally put his gentleman's hand on Amanda's. Waist, and Amanda just smiled and turned to look at him, said nothing, acquiesced to Arthur's intimacy.

Because the ambiguous atmosphere between the two became stronger and stronger, on the way back to Hearst Manor, the two of them looked at each other casually and smiled, but remained silent until the car drove into the manor, and Arthur said: "The next few days Man, I'm going to be busy with the New Jersey Nets draft, it's going to be very busy..."

"Work is important, we will see you when we are free." Amanda said with a smile, pursing her red lips.

"I'm afraid I'll miss you all the time, will you miss me?" Arthur boldly started to attack again.

"Heck, maybe I will think about it." Amanda smiled charmingly, then opened the car door, got out of the car, and said to Arthur who also got out of the car, "Good night."

"Good night." Arthur waved his hand with a smile. He had already launched Amanda's offensive. If he wanted to subdue this famous lady, he still had a long way to go. Drink a spoonful of consciousness.

Watching the red taillights of the car go away, Amanda, who was standing at the door of the mansion, raised the corners of her mouth and spat softly, "What a rascal!"

Early the next morning, Arthur looked at the gossip newspaper in his hand and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing. As expected, all the tabloids in New York published a photo of him and Amanda in the ground-up reports. All kinds of sensational headlines made people read It's dumbfounding.

What New York princess squeezed out the country queen, what real countess got New York, what British earl was a playboy. . .

As a result, while Arthur was eating breakfast, Taylor Swift in Tennessee made a questioning call. Well, listening to the angry and worried words in the microphone, Arthur pushed four, five, six, and firmly denied, And explained the whole thing in detail, and said a lot of tiresome words, and finally comforted Taylor.

"call--"

Hanging up the phone, Arthur shook his head and laughed. Coaxing a woman is a tiring job, but fortunately, it was comforted. Not only that, but also made the little country queen who felt threatened decide to fly to New York as soon as possible to meet Arthur, thinking of Taylor's pair of heaven-defying big white T, while eating a delicious breakfast, he couldn't help but smacking his mouth, with an endless aftertaste.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Miles went to the door, and drove to a luxury hotel next to Madison Square Garden with Arthur. Today is the day of the joint training before the NBA draft.

The Finals ended and the NBA entered the offseason, but the offseason is not a "grass period". During this relatively quiet period, there are still many major events happening, such as the annual NBA Draft. This is the first time Arthur participated in the draft stage, and it also marks the beginning of a new generation of basketball reshaping an era.

The NBA draft is a gamble. If you make the right bet, you are the winner. If you lose the bet, you can only blame your poor draft vision. So how important is the draft vision?

For many teams, if they are selected, they think that the team may win the championship next season, but if they are wrong, they may become a poor team for several years. However, some teams' draft vision is not flattering. They obviously selected superstars, but traded them away on draft night, and then they became superstars in NBA history, such as Nuo Tianwang and so on.

This is Arthur's first draft as the owner of the Nets. Although he is just a fake fan and not professional, he attaches great importance to the results of this draft because he doesn't want to just enter the Nets just because of the draft. Failure became a national joke.

When Arthur, led by Miles, walked into the hall, he saw Magic Johnson and the general manager of the Lakers chatting with acquaintances, and a group of people pretended not to notice that fans were taking selfies with them behind them. There is also a circle of people who are the agents of the players. Miles introduced the people on the field to Arthur in a low voice. Some reporters who were talking to the coach of the Clippers saw Arthur appearing and immediately dropped him. They flocked to Arthur, surrounded him, and began to ask questions.

Seeing the reporters being so crazy and enthusiastic, the other NBA bigwigs present couldn't help but smile at each other. They were also very curious about the Earl owner of the Nets. The hall became lively and noisy.

But upstairs, above the hustle and bustle of New York, the real action is happening.

Keep in mind that during the pre-draft combine, about 300 interviews were conducted over two days. Those conversations, perhaps more than balls played that week, gave teams a better understanding of their rookies and helped decision makers decide which players were worth millions of dollars to invest in Thursday's NBA draft.

When Arthur finally got rid of the entanglements and bombarding questions of the media reporters, he hid in the elevator under the guard of security, and he couldn't help but smiled wryly: "I didn't expect these sports reporters to be crazier than gossip paparazzi .”

"No way, they have been spoiled by the league. Even if we don't want to be interviewed, we must accept their questions according to the rules of the league. If we don't accept them, we will complain, and if we complain, we will be fined..." Miles laughed explained. "Actually, boss, there is absolutely no need for you to participate in this joint trial training, because it is really boring."

"Hehe, it's okay, after all, it's my first draft after taking over." Arthur smiled slightly.

I came to the interview room of the Nets. The furniture in the room included a bed, TV, and dresser. Two sofas and a table with eight chairs were cleared. The staff of the Nets team were ready. After Arthur and Miles sat down, someone asked if it would start. Miles looked at Arthur, and Arthur nodded.

"let's start--"

After a few nervous footsteps, a young soon-to-be professional athlete prepares to face the most unpredictable part of the NBA draft process.

"Relax, young man!" Miles smiled and said to the young player who walked in. Arthur learned from the information that the opponent was a player who participated in the draft in advance.

"We just want to get to know you."

Someone pours water and the chat begins.

A few people were taking handwritten notes, and no one was fiddling with their phones. An interview is more of a conversation than an interrogation. Typically in this order, staff from the five teams asked most of the questions, and each was given roughly equal time to play their respective roles.

"What will your family tell us about you?"

"How many cell phones do you have?"

"Is it just for money?"

He also asked the player what he thought of his teammates in college, how he treated teammates he didn't like, and how he reacted to criticism. Out of nowhere a question came up, very specific, about an offensive foul call this player was involved in in a game last season and how he reacted to the referee. It didn't go his way.

The player slid on the chair.

"How do you know?" he asked sheepishly.

Time flies, the interview is over, and within minutes the player arrives at another of the seven interviews scheduled for him. Everyone stands, handshakes are everywhere, and that's it, it's all over. The notebook closed and Miles walked to the door, patted him on the back twice, and said "you're doing great".

The kid walks into the hall, the door closes, and that's it.

"Every team interviews differently, but for the most part, the hotel room is cleared and there are five to 10 people in the room interviewing players for about 30 minutes at a time. At the end of the day, everyone is exhausted."

Returning to his seat, Miles smiled and explained to the young boss who sat there and didn't say a word during the entire interview process.

"It's all about business," Arthur said with a chuckle and nod.
