The richest actor in Hollywood.

Holding a signing pen, Matthew stepped out of the Mercedes-Benz Center in Rio de Janeiro, constantly signing posters for fans around him. South American fans were incredibly enthusiastic, even somewhat crazy. Brown Williams stood close by, vigilantly watching the fans, ready to act at any moment.

On Matthew's left, Adriana Lima, dressed in cool denim shorts that showcased her fashion sense, highlighted her long legs and curvy figure. She was also signing autographs for fans, and as a native Brazilian model, her popularity was no less than Matthew's. Adriana Lima was now one of Brazil's top three supermodels.

Although the "Pirates of the Caribbean" fan meet-and-greet had ended, numerous fans gathered at the main entrance of the Mercedes-Benz Center, unwilling to leave. Matthew signed over thirty autographs, but the number of fans only seemed to grow.

Brown Williams immediately reminded him in a low voice, "We should go now."

Without a word, Matthew handed his signing pen to a hot Latin girl who had just squeezed through, then turned and walked away. The girl, thrilled to receive a personal gift from Matthew, was just about to stash the pen when a nearby man snatched it from her.

"My pen!" the Latin girl exclaimed.

This wasn't an ordinary signing pen; it bore a special M&H engraving. The pen stayed in the man's hand for just two seconds before another mixed-race person snatched it, causing the scene to descend into chaos. The nearby police had to intervene quickly.

When a crowd gathers, chaos spreads like a plague. On the left, Adriana Lima was still signing autographs, oblivious to the deteriorating order around the Mercedes-Benz Center. 

Matthew pulled her arm, urging, "Let's go!"

Adriana Lima finally noticed the situation was not good. She wasn't a newcomer and knew that in such situations, it was best to leave quickly. 

The police quickly arrived but couldn't immediately control the scene. 

After Matthew's reminder, Adriana Lima turned to leave. Sensing her departure, a male fan reached out to grab her. Matthew, standing by her right, pulled her arm, drawing her to his side faster than the male fan could reach her.

"Let's go!"

Seeing the male fan and the spreading chaos, Adriana Lima grabbed Matthew's arm and followed him briskly towards a nearby Mercedes-Benz business car. She had only brought one female assistant, who had been sent to retrieve a handbag from the rest area. In this situation, sticking close to the tall and strong Matthew and his bodyguard was the wisest choice.

Disney's hired security personnel quickly gathered around Matthew. 

As someone who grew up in Brazil, Adriana Lima knew how to protect herself in chaotic situations. Before the chaos could spread, she clung tightly to Matthew's arm, following closely beside him as Brown Williams and several security personnel escorted them to a black Mercedes-Benz business car.

She glanced around, trying to spot her own car. 

Brown Williams opened the car door for Matthew, who, before getting in, pulled Adriana Lima and said, "Get in my car first; we'll talk later."

Now wasn't the time to hesitate. Without a second thought, Adriana Lima followed Matthew into the business car. Once Brown Williams took the front passenger seat, the car quickly started and left the area at the fastest possible speed before the chaos could reach them.

As the Mercedes-Benz Center faded into the distance, Matthew breathed a sigh of relief. The gathered crowd had been large, and if a major disturbance had occurred, the crazed fans wouldn't have cared if he was a Hollywood star.

He had heard long ago about Brazil's poor social order. The passionate and exuberant nature of Latinos could become a significant problem if misdirected. Of course, the passionate and exuberant Latin beauties were always a delight.

Matthew glanced at Adriana Lima sitting beside him. They had just attended an event together at the Mercedes-Benz Center. Adriana Lima, with her nearly 1.8-meter tall figure, unique blue-gray eyes, and beautiful appearance, had a very healthy body, unlike the traditionally skinny models.

The movie and fashion circles in Hollywood were closely linked. Many famous models often became hot topics in Hollywood, and Brazil's top three supermodels—Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima, and Gisele Bündchen—were representative figures.

Adriana Lima was famous for her sexy and bold style. 

"Thank you," Adriana Lima said, noticing Matthew's attention on her. She ran a hand through her dark brown, almost black hair. "I would have been in big trouble today without you."

Matthew turned to her, smiling. "You're welcome. You came to support me, so I had to get you out safely."

Adriana Lima was puzzled. "The order at the venue was fine. Why did it suddenly get chaotic?"

"It might be my fault," Matthew admitted awkwardly. "I gave my signing pen to a female fan, who had it snatched from her. The person who took it then had it taken by someone else, and things just spiraled from there."

"Because of your signing pen?" Adriana Lima was astonished, covering her forehead. "Chaos over a pen? Unbelievable!"

She glanced at Matthew again, noting his undeniable charm. Hollywood's top stars indeed had immense allure.

Matthew shrugged slightly. "I didn't expect it to turn out this way."

Adriana Lima gradually calmed down. "You underestimate your own charm." She shook her head and added, "I still need to thank you. If you hadn't pulled me, I'd be in trouble now."

Matthew joked, "This shows your irresistible charm."

Adriana Lima met his gaze, and they both laughed, filling the car with a pleasant atmosphere.

Among the current Victoria's Secret Angels, Adriana Lima was one of the few Matthew remembered. One reason was her bold style, the second was her breaking up the so-called alien Ronaldo's marriage, and the third was her self-declaration in interviews.

In an interview with "GQ" magazine in April, Adriana Lima publicly claimed she had never been intimate with any man. 

"GQ" magazine described her as "the world's sexiest virgin."

Matthew had never interacted with Adriana Lima before, and the rumors about her mostly came from Hollywood gossip.

Publicly declaring virginity wasn't unique to Adriana Lima. Since Matthew's relationship with Britney Spears was exposed, she also claimed to be a virgin for publicity, saying her first love didn't involve physical contact.

Matthew knew that Britney, who hadn't gone down a chaotic path, was no longer the somewhat naive and straightforward girl she was when they dated. Britney dared to make such claims knowing he wouldn't refute them or damage her reputation.

As for whether Adriana Lima truly had no intimate experiences, Matthew was curious to find out the truth. 

Among the top three Brazilian supermodels, Matthew didn't find Alessandra Ambrosio's masculine face and oddly long waist appealing, nor did he appreciate Gisele Bündchen's rugged facial features. Adriana Lima, on the other hand, fit his aesthetic preferences.

Fashion circles often had quirky tastes, and many famous models didn't conform to mainstream beauty standards. Adriana Lima's looks were what Matthew considered attractive and sexy for a model.

Adriana Lima's beauty and body were top-notch.

Matthew contemplated this as he refrained from asking Adriana Lima where she was headed. Whether due to being scared or for another reason, Adriana Lima hadn't mentioned her destination, only briefly contacting her assistant by phone.

"By the way, Lima."

As they chatted, Matthew asked, "Where is this year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show?"

"It's not decided yet," Adriana Lima replied. "Are you planning to attend?"

"Of course," Matthew said without hesitation. "You came to support me today, so I have to support you."

His words suggested they had a deep personal relationship.

Adriana Lima thought for a moment. "I'll let you know once it's decided?"

Matthew immediately took out his phone. "Your personal number? I'll call you..."

Before the Mercedes-Benz business car reached Matthew's hotel, they successfully exchanged phone numbers.

As the winter sun in Rio de Janeiro neared the horizon, the car stopped in front of the hotel. Matthew got out first and then extended his hand to help Adriana Lima out of the car.
