“Are you out of your mind? You’re waking me up when it’s only 10:00 a.m.”
It seemed Chester had gotten up on the wrong side of the bed. He would have made Rodney’s life a thousand times more miserable if he were not his buddy.
“Tsk. Singles always sleep late and get up late, ” Rodney teased, “Bud, if you ask me, I think it’s time for you to start a family.”
“I’m not interested. ” Chester returned to his bed and sneered. “What’s the point of being stuck with a woman forever? I’ll get bored of her.”
“What a sc*mbag,” Rodney criticized.
“Although I’m an utter sc*mbag, those women are willing to throw themselves at me, ” Chester said indifferently, “Why are you looking for me?”
“Oh, actually…” Rodney looked distressed. “I think I’m too good -looking for a man. Do you have any idea how to make me look less handsome?”
Chester replied, “… Something’s wrong with you.”
“I’m serious. Mireya said that she’s jealous of my good looks. ” Rodney sighed. “She’s so jealous that she can’t bring herself to treat me as a man.”
Chester chuckled. “Indeed, you’re too good- looking. You often dress extravagantly and curl your hair too…”
“Enough. My hair is naturally curly. I didn’t curl it on purpose. Also, what’s wrong with my clothes?
Those male celebrities dress extravagantly too, don’t they? Yet so many women are into them.” Rodney was annoyed. “Of course, those celebrities can’t compare to me when it comes to looks. I’ m just too good -looking. Why did my mom give me such good looks?”
Speechless, Chester wondered why he was here to listen to Rodney’s exaggerations on such a lovely morning.
“Chester, come up with a solution. I’m going on a date with Mireya tonight.” Rodney tugged on Chester. “I’m planning to have a candlelight dinner with her. Then, we’ll watch a movie together. When we return… at night… hehe. You know it.”
“… Are you sure you’ll succeed?” At the sight of Rodney who was hyped up, Chester did not know what to say.
“That’s why I need you to help me out. You’re most capable of dealing with women…”
“You’ re overthinking it. I don’t normally pursue women. They’re the ones who come buttering me up.” Chester lit a cigarette sluggishly.
“Oh, but haven’t you been pretty interested in Eliza’s affairs recently?”
Chester glanced sideways at him. “All I want is to sleep with her.”
“You’re really sc*mmy.” Rodney felt that it was unfair. Considering that his character was a lot better than Chester’s, it was strange that he was not appreciated by women.
“Let’s go. I’ll get a makeup team to primp you up. ” Chester got up lazily.
At five-ish in the afternoon.
After Mireya had a discussion with the president of a digital media company, the president invited her to have dinner.
“I’m sorry, but I need to return home and accompany my child later.”
Mireya turned down the president’s offer tactfully. He could not do anything about it.
When she took the elevator down, her new secretary, Charlene Cash, said with a grin, ” President Lynch, your identity as the prime minister’s goddaughter is too special. Other business owners need to move from pillar to post, yet you can easily have so many people come pleading with you to work with them.”
Mireya thought so too.
It was true that she benefited greatly from her identity as Nathan’s goddaughter. Of course, it was also due to her identity as the daughter-in-law of Snow Corporation’s chairman that she could dominate the business industry.
With various kinds of resources coming to her, she could now understand the perks of having a powerful background.
Although God gave her an average marriage, he opened another window for her. She should be content. After all, having a perfect life was impossible.
Amid her messy thoughts, she suddenly heard some exclamations.
“Did the man step straight out of a comic book?”
Mireya shifted her eyes to the man.
A chic, limited-edition white convertible was parked at the roadside. There was a young man inside, who was wearing a white shirt beneath a linen vest. His curly black hair was parted with a ratio of four to six, while his fringe was blown up, exposing his forehead and exquisite eyebrows. He had pretty thin lips and a high nose bridge where a pair of black-rimmed glasses sat. With his outstanding presence, he looked like a handsome and elegant young man who had just stepped right out of a comic book.
Even a woman like Mireya who was used to seeing handsome men zoned out for a short moment.
Previously, she used to think that some male celebrities seemed alluring when wearing glasses.
Next to the man in front of her, however, those celebrities paled in comparison.
Nevertheless… This handsome man looked familiar. When the man noticed her gaze, he smiled smugly.
He took a bouquet of pink roses from the rear seat. After that, he opened the car door and strode toward Mireya.
Under everyone’s admiring gazes, he approached her…
As soon as he stopped in front of her, he handed her the roses. The scent filled her nose. “Wifey, here are 27 stalks of roses, which signifies my love for you.”
The man fixed his eyes on her with a smile. His two charming dimples coupled with his familiar voice…
Mireya was dazed and shocked to the core.
It was no wonder she found him familiar. It turned out that it was… Rodney.
He had always dressed extravagantly before this. Now that he had suddenly changed his style, he looked like a gentleman. Not only did he change his car and hairstyle but he had also put on a pair of glasses. Anyway, she was so fascinated by his handsome looks that her brain shorted out, which made her unable to react.
Coincidentally, it was time to get off work. As such, a crowd began to surround him.
“Sadly, this handsome man is already taken.”
“He’s not only handsome but he’s also wealthy, fit, and tall. Look at his sports car. It’s a limited edition.
It costs hundreds of billions of dollars. Not everyone who’s rich can buy it.”
“Oh, God. Why am I not that lucky? I admire that woman.”
When Mireya heard the chatter of the people around, she lifted her head and looked at the man who seemed to be drawn by a brush. Indeed, he resembled a prince that one would find in a comic book.
Her heart began to thump in spite of herself.
Women were fond of novelty. She had to admit that the sight of Rodney’s new appearance gave her a different impression of him.
It felt as though her calm mind was becoming more and more flustered.
However, the moment she caught sight of someone recording them with their phone, she subconsciously clutched Rodney’s hand and said in a deep voice, “Let’s leave this place.”
After a short pause, she said to Charlene, “You can return first.”
With that, she held Rodney’s hand and swiftly got in the car.
Rodney glanced at his hand that she had just held. He could still feel her warmth on his wrist.
Nevertheless, he had yet to give her the roses. ” Wifey, these roses…”
Mireya immediately snatched the flowers and used them to cover her face before she said in a low, muffled voice, “Let’s go.”
Rodney was slightly sulky. Women enjoyed keeping a high profile, did they not?
He was under the impression that Mireya would weep tears of joy, hug him warmly, and address him as ¡®Hubby’ after he showed up with the bouquet of roses.
He would have spun her happily…
Ahem…
His imagination was too good to be true.
After Rodney started the car and drove away, he was met with admiring stares along the street.
Mireya whispered, “Can you close the roof? I don’t want those people outside staring at me.”
