“What should we do?” Juniper looked to Joaquin for answers, since he was more reliable.
“We’ll see what happens first.” Joaquin was a lot calmer after seeing multiple happenings of the same thing.
When Juniper heard that, she pouted. “And that Lake guy’s a jerk. I have a feeling Daddy’s not gonna be our daddy anymore.”
Joaquin kept quiet. Well, he did this to himself, and now he’s going to lose his wife.
Two days later, Selena was discharged since she suffered nothing else, except for overexertion. Niall came to see her the moment she was discharged. “This is your date for tomorrow, Miss Yard. Mr. Miller from Miller Multimedia. Eight in the evening at room 303, Crystal Palace.”
At that, she smiled. “Does he really want to marry me off to someone else that much?”
Niall was forcing himself to smile. It was the first time he knew his boss could pull off something insane like this. Love does turn you into a fool.
“Got it. Tell Pierre I’ll be there on time.” Hence, Selena dolled herself up that night and wore a red, low-cut fishtail dress. She had heavy makeup on, and her permed hair tumbled down her shoulder. Also, she was wearing black stilts, making her the center of attention when she appeared in Crystal Palace.
She even threw a look at a guy, and that guy bumped into a pillar. When Pierre saw her, his eyes widened as he trotted up to her and took her to the staircase.
“Let me go! What are you doing?” She flung his hand away and straightened her clothes and hair.
“You’re wearing that for the date?” Pierre stared at her cleavage, and he felt suffocated as his attention got drawn in.
“What? Do I look bad?”
No, you look too good. He gritted his teeth. “Don’t you care what they think of you if they see you in this?”
“I’m here for a date. Of course I have to doll up. I can’t just come here in a T-shirt and jeans. That’s insulting.” While she spoke, she looked at him with disdain. “I’m young and rich. This outfit is perfect for me.”
Pierre couldn’t come up with a good retort. Yeah, she’s on a date, so of course she has to doll up. “B-But this is plain seduction. A relationship you get through a method like this won’t last long.”
Selena dismissed it. “What’s that got to do with you?” Then, she pushed him away. “Don’t get in my way.” Immediately, she went straight to room 303, much to his chagrin.
Her date for the night was a man called Zachary Miller. He was a young, handsome man who was also the boss of Miller Multimedia. When she came in, he quickly stood up. “Hello, Miss Yard.” He was wearing a light blue suit and a white shirt inside, though he wasn’t wearing a necktie. The outfit made him look lively and energetic, but also elegant.
“Hello, Mr. Miller.” She shook his hand and sat down.
“I’ve heard about your great beauty, Miss Yard, but you’re prettier than what I’ve heard. You’re the president of JNS Corporation, I take it? Successful and gorgeous, I see.”
In response, Selena smiled sheepishly. “You flatter me. You’re different from the rumors too, Mr. Miller.”
“Is that so? I don’t really know what the public thinks about me.” He smiled humbly.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
