NovelEnglishCharlie rubbed his nose awkwardly as he answered," Uhm... I'm your best friend's husband!" 7 Loreen replied in a somewhat indifferent tone, "I know. A fake husband and a fake marriage for four years. I wonder how much longer this make-believe gwill last." 9 Just when they were chatting, a limited edition Bentley drove up to the front of the villa and stopped beside them. The back seat window was wound down, and a luxuriously dressed woman poked her head ou of the window. The woman looked at Loreen and asked, "Loreen, why are you out here?" As soon as Loreen saw the woman, she hurriedly smiled and said, "Oh, auntie! Where is uncle?" The woman in the car answered, "He's busy with his work. He'll cat noon before the banquet starts." Loreen continued, "Where's cuz?" The woman sighed and replied, "I haven't seen him since last night. Argh, I'm so pissed. He is so stubborn! It wasn't long after his surgery that he started to stay out all night again. Talk to him, will you?" 6 Loreen managed a bitter smile and stated, "I don't dare to do so. You know how he is like. When I chide him, he growls at me..." 6 The woman sighed again. "That boy is getting more and more disobedient now..." Then, she looked at Charlie, who was beside Loreen, and asked with a smile, "Oh my, is this young man your boyfriend?" Loreen glanced at Charlie and blushed with a shy smile. "Not yet." 9 "Not yet?" The woman emphasized the word 'yet' with a teasing smile. "So when will you get to go from 'not yet' to 'yes'?" Loreen uttered shyly, "Ah, auntie, stop making fun of m e! Hurry up and head inside. Grandma can't wait to see you!" The woman laughed and added, "Do you wantto give both of you a ride?" Loreen quickly waved her hand to dismiss it. "Oh, no thanks. We'll just walk in. It's not that far." The woman nodded. "Okay. I'll head in first then." With that, the Bentley slowly drove into the gate of the compound.
Charlie grimaced rather helplessly and hurriedly said, "Don't ever introduceto other people that way again. What if they misunderstand me? What if Claire finds out? If anyone asks who I am again, just tell them I am your best friend's husband." 3 Loreen pouted. "I was just kidding. Why are you so serious?" 4 Charlie huffed and continued in a stern tone, "I have to be serious about this... It is a matter of principle." Loreen nodded. "Okay, fine. I'll stop talking about it then!" 4 She hastily changed the subject and urged, "It's getting late. Let's quickly go in!"
Initially, Charlie wanted to drop the gift with Loreen and leave. However, on second thought, Claire had m specifically reminded him that he should at least meet Loreen's grandmother in person and deliver the gif and message on her behalf in order to complete his task, s Hence, he kept quiet and followed Loreen into the compound.
As they were walking toward the house, a red Ferrari suddenly m whizzed by from behind. When Loreen saw the car, she hurriedly waved and shouted, "Cuz! Cuz!"
However, the driver couldn't hear her I at all as the sound of the car's engine was so loud, and he was driving at high-speed. In the end, the car passed by them with a whoosh. Charlie asked, "Is the one driving the car your cousin?" Like RICH WOMEN? X These women desperately want a mature men! JOIN NOW *Waming* these rich women will persue you.
