Bogus Billionaire
Cadline turned to look at him. âWhat?
âDidnât you promise Grandpa that youâd take care of me?â Eddy stared at her with anxious eyes Donât tell me youâre breaking your promise Caroline didnât feel like entertaining him. She simply walked out of the room to ask the bodyguards where the kitchen was One of them led her straight to the kitchen, which was full of a variety of vegetables, poultry, and meat Everything had been rinsed and cleaned beforehand. All Caroline had to do was cook.
Before this, sheâd been in charge of all three of Eddyâs meals every day. Naturally, she knew his preferences. Now, though, she didnât want to cook based on that anymore. Sheâd be cooking whatever she wanted!
After half an hour, the bodyguard brought two dishes into Eddyâs room. Both of them were steamed asparagus Eddyâs face contorted in disgust at the sight of them. âWhat else did you cook?
âNothing Picking up her plate of asparagus, Caroline sat at the table and started eating the food slowly She hadnât had lunch and had lost her appetite, so sheâd resorted to cooking this plain and simple dish Eddy was so pissed that he wanted to throw the cutlery onto the ground. âYouâre asking me to eat this even though Iâm sick?â In the past, Caroline would never do something like this to him!
âDonât eat it if you donât want to,â she replied, not even raising her head to look at him.
Eddy was totally dumbstruck.
At Kirkâs apartment, Sean was perched on the edge of his seat. He tried his best to keep a serious look on his face, but his efforts were all in vain. It didnât even last for a second before he started laughing out loud.
âYou actually told her that you two are partners in bed-â He continued laughing his head off, which made Kirkâs already gloomy face darken dangerously.
He didnât understand what was so funny about it. Based on their deal, he and Caroline shouldnât fall for each other So, what was wrong with calling themselves âpartners in bedâ? Wasnât it just The perfect term to describe their relationship?
After all, physical touch was way better than a piece of contract paper.
As Kukâs best friend, Sean clearly understood what was on his mind. After some time, he finally managed to suppress his laughter. He cleared his throat and said, âIt seems to me that I have to teach you some tricks to pursue your girl.â
âIâm hot pursuing her â
âOkay!â Sean rose from his seat. âSorry for bothering you. Goodbye.â
He reached the door and was about to leave when Kirk closed his eyes and said in exasperation, Come back hereâ
It wasnât every day that Sean got to see this side of Kirk. Gleeful, he turned to look at Kirk and said, âCoaxing her is actually pretty simple.â He took a few steps in Kirkâs direction. âWhen did you get married? You didnât give her a ring, right?â
âThatâs not even worth anything-â
Kirk started but was curtly interrupted by Sean, who yelled, âStop!â
Sean gestured and told him, âKeep this in mind. To a woman, it doesnât matter if itâs priceless or not as long as youâre romantic. Gold is worth something, but sheâll find it vulgar if you give her a pound of it âA diamond ring is a different matter altogether. A single diamond ring is sufficient to melt the heart of any woman. Sheâll forget all about getting mad at you by then.â
Kirkâs fingers tapped lightly on the surface of the table. In the next instant, he pulled out his phone and called Charles. âSend me the latest diamond ring designs from all the major jewelry stores Sean smiled in satisfaction as he patted Kirk on the shoulder. Confidently, he said, âAs long as you follow my advice, I promise you that sheâll come back to you in less than a month.â
Kirk then turned sideways to glance at Seanâs hand that rested on his shoulder. The latter instantly felt a sense of foreboding and pulled his hand away immediately.
