Chapter 141 Snow, are you being wishful thinking?
The scumbag in front of her was clearly used to taking advantage of others, and Grace didn't like him at all.
But if she had to choose between Charles and Mr. Director, she would still choose Charles.
If you were stick between two evils, you would chose the lesser one.
Even if she had to be taken advantage of, she would choose someone who was at least a good looking man.
Actually, looking at it from another angle, Charles was quite outstanding, rich, handsome, and generous.
He could be the Prince Charming of many girls' hearts.
'But why does his character have to be so despicable? Can't he use another way to pursue girls? Why does he have to say such unpleasant things? Mistress? What an awful word. If you hadn't said such unpleasant things from the start, maybe I would have been moved by you by now!' Grace thought.
Charles didn't care about Grace's opinion.
Charles had to make things clear first.
Otherwise, if trouble arose later, he wouldn't be able to explain.
It was wise to clearly express your intentions from the start to avoid all uncertainties.
If money could solve the problem, he wouldn't use emotions to do so.
Otherwise, he would be very busy!
He was focused on spending the Special Funds.
"Alright, let's leave it at that for today. I have something to do, so I'm leaving. If you need money, just let me know anytime. Goodbye!" Charles said before he left. He had been in the room for less than half an hour in total.
First, he had given her a luxury car, then he had given her fifteen million dollars.
Although his gaze was frivolous, he hadn't done anything to her, even though they had been alone in a room
And with a premise of some kind of transaction, Charles hadn't made any physical advances.
When Charles left, Grace breathed a sigh of relief, her originally vigilant mood suddenly relaxed.
She realized that this scumbag didn't seem to be particularly bad. It seemed like he had some principles and a bottom line.
[Grace: Favorability +10
Grace: Favorability +10
Current favorability: -5 points.]
After Charles left Waterfront International Villas, he realized that Grace's favorability toward him had increased.
But it hadn't increased much, and the favorability was still negative.
It seemed that celebrities were different.
Even though he had spent eighteen million dollars, the favorability was still low. If he dated Grace, he would be able to spend a lot of money.
'Why don't I just transfer fifteen million dollars to her every day? Let's see how long she can hold out,' he thought.
Half an hour later, Matthew, a young man in his early twenties with a middle-part hairstyle and dressed very fashionably, hurriedly rushed home.
"Sis, whose Ferrari LaFerrari is downstairs? Damn, it's parked in my spot. What's so great about driving a LaFerrari? Damn! By the way, sis, Mr. Smoke should be arriving soon. I need to get ready to welcome Mr. Smoke!" Matthew said and hurriedly took out the expensive tea leaves from home, looking flustered.
He knew Mr. Smoke was coming to see the house, and it was a great opportunity to meet an ultra-rich patron, so he had driven back from Sun Fransisco in about forty minutes without hesitation.
But he didn't know that it had only taken Charles fifteen minutes to drive to his house, including ten minutes of walking to get the car.
"Mr. Smoke has already been here. The Ferrari LaFerrari you mentioned is the luxury car he gave me, and he also transferred fifteen million dollars to me!"
As soon as Grace finished speaking, Matthew was dumbfounded, feeling that things were developing too fast and that it was a bit unreal.
At this moment, he noticed the Ferrari car key on the coffee table, with a surprised look in his eyes.
"Sis, is this really the luxury car Mr. Smoke gave you? A three-million-dollar supercar?" he asked.
"Yes!"
"And he transferred fifteen million dollars to you?" he added.
"Yes!"
"Mr. Smoke is very efficient. Did he really get you in his pocket so quickly?"
"Matthew, you little brat. Do you know what kind of excessive conditions Mr. Smoke proposed to me? He wants me to be his mistress!" Grace said angrily.
"What's so bad about being a mistress? You can have a sports car and have endless money. If I were a girl, I'd do it too. Besides, I heard Mr. Smoke doesn't even have a proper girlfriend right now. There are just some rumors about him and John's sister. You might even have a chance to become his official girlfriend!"
The first half of Matthew's sentence almost drove Grace mad, but the latter half made Grace pause.
Some strange thoughts inexplicably appeared in her mind. 'Isn't John's sister, Alice? I have met that girl twice, she's also very beautiful and elegant. I heard that the Mitchellng Family was originally going bankrupt but have suddenly revived. Could Mr. Smoke be supporting them behind the scenes? Did Alice also become Mr. Smoke's mistress? That man's power is truly astonishing!'
"Sis, can I borrow this sports car for a bit? I want to show off!" Matthew said.
"No way, I haven't agreed to Mr. Smoke yet. If you take someone else's car and something happens, I will lose my temper!"
"Fine, you don't have to lend it to me then!" Matthew said, looking displeased, but he started to hatch a sneaky plan in his mind.
He had long wanted to show off in front of his buddies.
There was a party tomorrow night, and if he showed up in a multi-million-dollar luxury car, it would definitely shock everyone!
Just thinking about it made him feel very respected.
Meanwhile, Jessica and Snow were discussing Charles's performance on the basketball court that morning.
In Jessica's eyes, she had seen Charles's dazzling and heroic performance on the basketball court. Charles was talented, far beyond her imagination. Whether in music, sports, or money, he was impeccable.
But Snow saw Charles being a douchebag, since he seemed to have relationships with many girls.
"Jessica, you saw what happened on the basketball court this morning, right? Charles was surrounded by flirtatious women!" Snow said.
"I know, Lisa is his ex-girlfriend, but they've broken up now and have no relationship. Charles is firm about it; Lisa is just clinging on. As for Pamela, she has a bad reputation at school, and there are rumors about her and many men. I don't care about her; Charles wouldn't like her. And Emily was Leo's girlfriend before. She just thinks Charles is better than Leo and is being fickle. I believe Charles will make his own judgment!" Jessica showed her confident side as she said that.
Indeed, none of the three girls were better than her!
"Jessica, I didn't want to say it, but I'm really worried about you. You should stay away from that douchebag Charles!" Snow advised.
"Snow, if you keep talking like this, I'll really get mad. Charles hasn't done anything to you, so why are you always targeting him?" Jessica said angrily.
"Jessica, do you know that on the night of your birthday party, Charles took me home in a sports car? He even deliberately got a group of people to harass me, then showed up at the critical moment to help me. Alfonso used this trick on me before. It's boring and disgusting, and I hate it. He fought six people alone? If he is going to hire people to act, he should at least get some professionals. Do you know what his intentions are? Jessica, I'm not saying this to show off, I just want you to see Charles's true colors!"
Snow had thought about it for several days, and decided to be honest with Jessica, thinking that after hearing this, Jessica would be shocked, disappointed, and wake up to see Charles's true colors.
But to her surprise, Jessica's expression didn't change at all.
"Snow, could you be mistaken? Charles is really good at fighting. Haven't you seen the video of him fighting twenty people alone? And I didn't even tell Charles you were coming on my birthday. He wouldn't have had time to arrange anything in advance. Snow, isn't this just t wishful thinking? Why don't I find that video and show it to you?" After saying that, Jessica started looking for the video on her phone.
Soon, she found the video and said, "Snow, look, this is the video!"
