Chapter 488: Love Rivals Chris stood by and watched the whole thing, wishing that the overconfident woman would just drag these two men away. That way, Mr. Foley would have fewer love rivals! The mother and daughter who had been retorted were dumbfounded, while the overconfident woman was so angry that she pouted her lips and stomped her feet like a spoiled child. "Mom, is he insultingfor being plain- looking?" The middle-aged woman hesitated for a moment before nodding in anger. She comforted her daughter by patting her shoulder.
"Good girl, don't be angry. He's nearsighted and has no taste at all. You're gorgeous." After listening to her mother's comforting words, the overconfident woman finally laughed.
"Mom, I don't like this man in white clothes because of his harsh attitude towards me. Let's go for the one in black; he looks handstoo." Omari wiped off sweat from his forehead with relief on his face. "Great! She actually thinks she can choose." Iker's face beceven darker; he pushed aside the overconfident woman standing in front of him without any pity. "Get out of my way." However, the overconfident woman didn't give up yet; she extended her chubby hand to hold onto Iker's arm. "Honey. Don't be shy now! How much dowry do you want before agreeing to marry into my family? One million enough? My family has plenty of money!" Iker, who couldn't bear it anymore, kicked the overconfident woman. Ordinary people would have felt pain and stepped back, but this woman stood still with a smile.
A glint flashed across his eyes as he wondered if she actually knew smartial arts.

If one hundred million isn't enough, then how about two hundred million? Our first child will take my surnwhile second can take yours. Besides, I'll also send you a sports car!” The men watching the scene gasped in shock, thinking to themselves, "What is there to hesitate about? Say yes!" With a dowry of two million and a sports car worth tens of millions, who wouldn't take this opportunity? Omari couldn't resist teasing and added, “Miss, you made the right choice. He has two brothers; He isn't the only one that can sustain his family bloodline." As expected, both mother and daughter were thrilled upon hearing this.
Iker glared at Omari and said through gritted teeth, "Mr. Lara! Don't forget why we're here..." At the mention of business matters, Omari quickly becserious again. He helped Iker push aside the mother- daughter duo.
The noise outside finally woke up Cheyenne and Kelvin from their nap. Cheyenne was the first to wake up. She elegantly yawned while rubbing her sleepy eyes and preparing to get up. Kelvin held onto her finger tightly; if she didn't know any better, she would have thought he was pretending to be asleep.
"Let go, Kelvin." She called out softly several times but Kelvin still did not respond so she had no choice but to pry open his fingers one by one.
Finally Cheyenne picked up a small toy doll next to him and placed it in his hand for him to hold onto before walking towards the door.
Upon opening it, she found Master Iker and Mr. Lara standing outside, arguing with the mother and daughter. "Do you need something from me?" Cheyenne's clear sweet voice sounded like birdsong in springtime.
Even the middle-aged woman looked over curiously with her head down... Cheyenne blocked most of their view when she closed the door shut.
After being obstructed by Cheyenne's body, the middle-aged woman smiled awkwardly, turned around tugged on her daughter's shirt, whispering into her ear, "It's Kelvin. Let's go." The brief eye contact between them was noticed by Iker, who quickly signaled Tanner to follow them.
Cheyenne stared at them and said, "Let's talk somewhere else; we might disturb the patient here." "Okay." As Omari left, he glanced at the room, only seeing darkness without any trace of Kelvin. He was hesitant about asking Cheyenne why she chere or what she did during all this time? Chris took a step forward, but the words stuck in his throat and he let out a low sigh as he watched the three figures walk away.
Cheyenne had just left when Kelvin woke up, muttering her nwith dry lips. "Water... Cheyenne... I want to drink water..." "Mr. Foley, you're awake!" Chris exclaimed happily as he rushed to get him swater and handed it over.

Kelvin's eyes slowly opened to bright lights that made him squint and shield his eyes with one hand while e taking a sipor water with the other. His parched throat felt much better now, but memories of his dream about Cheyenne lingered on. He remembered seeing her kiss him in what seemed like a fairytale story that he didn't want to wake up from until the noisy sounds outside shattered it all.
Kelvin's expression turned grim. "What about her? Is she okay now?" "Her?" Chris realized that Mr. Foley was referring to Miss Lawrence. He chuckled and scratched the back of his head before replying, "Mr. Foley, Miss Lawrence just left. She was taking care of you all afternoon."
This time, it was Kelvin's turn to be surprised. His deep-set eyes squinted as he looked out at the lush greenery outside the window, his voice carrying a hint of invisible delight.
"What did you say? She... she was taking care of me?" It wasn't a dream! Cheyenne had really cto see him.
That kiss was real too.
"Yeah, Miss Lawrence took care of you all afternoon, until she left just now... uh, she had something to! e tom attend to Chris intended to say she left with Mr. Lara, but then he thought better of it considering Mr. Foley's current state.
