She Became Rich After Divorce
Chapter 189: Call Me Honey
Tanner took the list of medicines from Cheyenne with great respect,
and his voice choked as he bowed to her. "Miss Lawrence, thank you
for your hard work."
Cheyenne shook her head with a cold expression. "It's nothing. It's
what I should do.â
"Why tomorrow?" Iker asked in confusion.
Cheyenne replied casually, âToday is Kate's birthday, and she invited
me to go clubbing. I promised her, so I'm not free tonight.â
Clubbing...
Iker was an extremely boring person; his life consisted of studying and
endless training after becoming an adult.
In his world, he had never relaxed for a day.
He could dance but only the kind of ballroom dancing that was taught
by his family.
Going to a chaotic place like a bar for clubbing wasn't suitable for him.
When he heard Cheyenne say she was going to a bar to dance like
that, his handsome face darkened instantly.
Complicatedly enough, he was in no position to stop her from going
there and forced a smile that seemed sarcastic as he said, "Miss
Lawrence, you really have a wide range of interests.â
For some reason, she felt there was sarcasm in this sentence.
Cheyenne touched her nose carelessly and replied, "But I'm only
twenty years old.â
Of course young people should play more often!
"But Master Iker," she continued teasingly while looking at him directly
in the eye, "aren't you tired of being so serious at such a young age? It
would be nice if you occasionally went clubbing or relaxed yourself."
"There are so many pretty girls at bars; maybe you can find one that
suits you,"
As Cheyenne spoke more recklessly about it all, Iker's face turned
dark, and without bothering about it anymore, he turned around, coldly
saying, "See you day after tomorrow. Don't be late or else money will
be deducted!â
She couldn't help muttering under her breath, "Penny-pincher.â
After leaving the Todd Mansion, Cheyenne parted ways with her
grandpa.
Eddie had initially promised to celebrate Kate's birthday with her, but
since he hadn't fully recovered and had a lot of work to deal with, he
had no time to accompany Kate on her birthday.
Thus, he sent her twenty thousand dollars as pocket money and bought
her a limited edition Venice teddy bear as a gift. Eddie also made a
special call to Cheyenne, asking her to spend the evening with Kate.
Cheyenne agreed to the request, and Kate's birthday party was
scheduled to start at eight in the evening. Cheyenne had some free
time and decided to pick a birthday gift for Kate.
Strangely, she ended up at a boutique near her school. She was a
regular visitor to this place, having spent time here when she skipped
classes. Even now, the owner remembered her well. It was hard to
forget such a beautiful and rebellious young lady.
The owner warmly greeted her when she walked in. "Hello Cheyenne,
it's been a while since you've been here."
The woman gave a faint smile and replied softly, âI'm not a student
anymore."
The owner didn't say anything else and poured her a glass of lemon
honey water as usual. The sunshine outside was warm and bright, and
there was someone familiar playing basketball on the court not far
away.
Cheyenne squinted her eyes as it felt too bright for her. The man took
off his black suit that wrapped him tightly before leaving only his white
shirt with black pants.
He freely sweated on the court with short chestnut-colored hair shining
like gold under the sun. His every move exuded masculinity.
It felt like going back many years ago when she skipped school wearing
uniforms just to sneak into his university's basketball court to watch him
play.
He was an accurate shooter, standing three meters away from the
hoop. He raised his hand and released the ball, and it went straight into
the basket without any error.
This open-air venue had other courts around Kelvin's area where he
sensed someone looking at him from afar. He turned around only to
meet eyes with Cheyenne sitting inside the bubble tea shop.
He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment; there was a faint
glimmer in his eyes that quickly disappeared after seeing what she
wore - anger written all over his face along with veins popping out of his
forehead revealing how bad he felt at that moment.
Cheyenne wore a white tank top paired with blue irregular denim skirt
covered by an eye-catching purple long shirt while still wearing those
sandals showing off her fair tender toes painted red color - reminding
Kelvin of how cool she looked when being one of those school
gangsters.
Kelvin's lips twitched slightly before putting away the basketball without
noticing another ball suddenly hit him on his shoulder until Cheyenne
reminded him, "Be careful.â
Kelvin quickly turned around, sidestepping the basketball's attack, and
at the same time, he skillfully caught the ball.
Moments later, one high school student ran over towards him, blushing
all over and apologizing, "Mister, I am sorry!" the teenager said before
hastily running off with his basketball.
As Kelvin turned to look back at the bubble tea shop, he noticed that
the girl sitting on the chair was no longer there. He felt inexplicably
annoyed by this.
There were many shops lining the long and somewhat old street, with
groups of students walking out of their school gates in twos or threes.
They wore their school uniforms and exuded youthfulness and energy.
Cheyenne held a cup of bubble tea in one hand while wearing flip flops
and casually strolling towards a nearby billiards room with her purse
tucked away in her pocket.
Dominic had mentioned that Sebastian's billiards room was located
somewhere around here, so she decided to check up on how her crazy
fan was doing there since she had arrived anyway.
In high school, Cheyenne's favorite sport was playing billiards. The
owner of this particular shop used to be someone else before
Sebastian took over due to poor business performance.
Unfortunately, Kate and Reece didn't come along today. Reece had a
scene to shoot later tonight while Kate couldn't play billiards at all; she
just watched aside every time they came here together.
Cheyenne walked into the shop where she saw a blue-haired young
man who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old playing billiards
while sporting an earring. His face wasn't bad-looking - quite handsome
actually - but when he caught sight of Cheyenne for the first time, his
eyes lit up as if struck by lightning.
âI'll play here," Cheyenne said in a voice that sounded refreshing yet
coolly aloof with hints of subtle charm.
She placed her bubble tea on top of a table, then went over to grab
herself a cue stick from one corner.
Her left leg was upright, while the right one bent, and she leaned
halfway onto the table. She held a cue stick in one hand and extended
her other hand, with her thumb and forefinger touching. Her posture
was elegant and precise, with slender, fair fingers contrasting
beautifully against the green table. She looked incredibly attractive.
