My Billionaire Family 173 Chapter 173 Sensing the tension between Morris and Cherise, Leo glanced at Crow, who was casually munching on snacks. Then he pulled Crow out of the room and closed the door behind them.
"Hey, hey, letgo! We're both grown men-this looks weird with you dragginglike this," Crow protested, struggling to break free from Leo's grip.
Leo dragged Crow over to the bar on the first floor, ordered two glasses of juice from the server, and finally let go. Then he said. "Weird? Back at the Lewis Chemical Plant, you held my hand while we ran." Crow took the juice Leo handed him, looking embarrassed as he took a sip. Then he muttered, "I thought you were a woman at the time! I'm a gentleman-I always want to look out for a lady "If I had known you were a guy, there's no way I would've done that His voice grew softer and softer.

Leo nodded, and they clinked their glasses before downing their juice.
Then Crow pointed upstairs and said, "So, what's up with that? My boss's boyfriend looks familiar.
"Back at the chemical plant, I wanted to ask who he was. He is as good at fighting as my boss. What's his nagain? He looks so familiar.
"And why is he being called King all of a sudden, and my boss is acting like she doesn't even know?" Leo chuckled. "How could he not look familiar? You've probably seen him in finance magazines or on the economic news. That's Mr. Morris Chivers. Crow let out a loud yelp. "What? Morris Chivers? Wait-my boss's boyfriend is that Morris?!" Leo looked at the shocked Crow and nodded.
Meanwhile, in the VVIP room upstairs, Morris and Cherise were still standing there.
Morris moved closer to Cherise, trying to take her hand, but Cherise turned gracefully, creating space between them again.
Morris looked down at his now-empty hand, shaking his head with a helpless smile before slowly making his way toward Cherise.
This time, as Cherise was about to step back, Morris wrapped his arms tightly around her and said, "Babe, I didn't know; I'm sorry. Don't ignore me, okay?" Knowing she couldn't break free, Cherise let herself remain in his embrace.
Morris's warm breath filled the air as he said. "Right now, let's focus on fixing the aufile you need, alright? We can deal with everything else once we're home." Cherise knew her priorities. "Fine.

He thought, 'My girlfriend is truly exceptional, excelling in every field att she ventures into and always at the NO top of her game. I feel like I need to put in more effort to keep up with her."

Afterward, sendan account number, and I'll make sure payment is prompt." Cherise acted like any other girl in love with her boyfriend-occasionally throwing a playful little tantrum, slightly puffing her cheeks in mock frustration, looking utterly adorable. Morris couldn't help but chuckle, giving her a quick peck on the cheek before leaning toward the computer.
"You-!" Cherise started to say, but then she saw Morris's hands flying over the keyboard, too fast to follow.
In just a few seconds, Morris stopped. "All done. Take a look, honey. And don't worry about the payment family doesn't put a price on helping each other. That kiss just covered it." SEND GIFT
