Chapter 9 Got on his love pirate ship
After this incident, my mom kept urging me to find a boyfriend. She said that working alone outside, having a boyfriend to protect me would put her at ease.
My younger brother went even further and directly gave Roan the door lock code of my house. He also asked Roan to ensure my safety and to rush to my house directly in case of any emergency.
I thought since Roan now has a girlfriend, it’s not right to keep bothering him. So, just to reassure my family, I had to honestly meet the blind date they introduced to me.
This time, I arranged to meet at a restaurant near the office. The lunch break is short, and the restaurant is bustling with people. I tried to stay in a corner, afraid of being seen by colleagues.
“Miss Greer, Miss Greer?” The man across from me reached out and waved in front of my face. I lowered the menu from my face and gave him an awkward smile.
“Miss Greer is indeed more beautiful than in the photos.” The man in front of me put on a smile, squinted his eyes, looked me from head to toe, rubbed his hands, rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, revealing the Rolex gold watch on his wrist.
However, his taste was truly unique. Although the clothes and accessories he wore were not cheap, the colorful and flamboyant colors were quite inappropriate for his nearly two hundred pounds of body. I silently criticized my mom’s judgment, but I didn’t want to waste each other’s time, so I spoke the truth.
“Um… Mr. Bow, I’m sorry, but I have another meeting shortly. I’ve been quite busy lately, so I’ll be straightforward-we’re not a good fit.”
Unexpectedly, Mr. Bow on the other side suddenly changed his expression. His mouth downturned, instantly showing a different side.
“No time? So why call me if you have no time? You’re busier than me? I earn a five-figure income every minute. You think you’re busier than me?”
The restaurant was crowded, and I held back from speaking. I didn’t want to waste words with him. I started packing my things to leave, but he wouldn’t let it go.
“Relying on a bit of looks, thinking you’re a goddess descended to earth? How much do you make in a month with all that work? After getting married, you’ll still have to stay at home and take care of the family. Let me tell you, the older you get, the less valuable you become!”
“Smack!”
I grabbed the water glass on the table and splashed it at him, then slammed the glass heavily on the table.
He got wet, looking at me in disbelief.
“Fiona! Are you insane?!”
“Don’t call me by my name; it disgusts me.”
Smiling, I lifted my bag and stood up, looking down at him.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Also, next time, don’t walk around in fake goods, it’s embarrassing!”
I leaned down, mockingly finishing my sentence, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Roan standing at the restaurant entrance, staring straight at me.
But I couldn’t afford to think much. Mr. Bow was already on the verge of rage. I quickly grabbed my coat and ran.
“Excuse me!”
I swiftly passed by Roan, completely ignoring his current expression.
