Billionaire ’s Unforgettable First Love novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19 Do You Like It? 

The passionate scene brought a hot blush to her cheeks. 

Estella Anderson nudged her arm with an elbow. "Be cool. A smart guy like Mr. Edison must have put up his guard. Try to hide your intentions a little bit." 

That reminded her that she was on cloud nine. 

Taking a deep breath and composing herself, she took the two glasses of cocktails from the bartender's hand and carefully put the powder into one. 

The bartender saw what she did and gave her a knowing smile. The two glasses looked the same, and he put a small green olive with tongs in the clean one to help Nancy tell them apart. 

Nancy winked at him and said, "Darling, I love you so much!" 

Edison Yates hated olives so much he would never pick the one with an olive. 

The bartender was one of her few male friends. He worked in the first-floor bar of the Nightcharm Club, where they had met and befriended. 

And of her, he was much aware. 

He had known her for a while and always kept his mouth shut about her, never telling anyone about her affairs. 

Thus, she had faith in him and trusted him with the birthday party, a lucrative deal. He could also back her up. 

She walked to Edison Yates and Gwenyth Lovelace, with the two glasses of cocktails in her hands. 

As the two sat down, those who had been in the seats around stood up and got away from Edison consciously. 

Seeing Nancy coming, Reina O'flagen hurried to vacate the spot next to Edison for her. 

Trying to act casual, Nancy handed the cocktails to Edison and Gwenyth. 

Gwenyth took the one with an olive but put it on the table instead of drinking it up. 

Edison leaned against the sofa in a lazy position with a careless look on his face. He had his arm around Gwenyth's shoulder and never moved it since they walked into the bar. 

He didn't take the cocktail from Nancy as if he didn't even see her come. 

All the attention from other tables brought a hot blush to Nancy's cheeks, and she placed the glass in front of Edison and sat in the seat opposite to him, not the one next to him. 

"Eddie, today's my birthday. Did you prepare any gift for me?" 

With his look unchanged, he replied in a flat tone, "I came here. It's the best gift" 

"Eddie, I've already known about the agreement." 

"Then, what?" 

"You don't need to push me like this." 

Edison chuckled and fueled his arm around Gwenyth's shoulders, pulling her closer into his embrace, and their bodies were in a clinch. 

She smelt sweet, her fragrance filling his nostrils, better than Nancy with her perfume. 

He buried his face in Gwenyth's neck. 

"Eddie, too bad you're not an actor." 

"The agreement is none of your business." 

He coldly said, "That's just a piece of paper, and I can dispose of it whenever I want." 

"I know you have mental cleanliness so you can't really get intimate with her." 

With confidence on her face, Nancy took a glass of wine from the tray a waiter was holding and toasted to Edison and Gwenyth, "Thank you for attending my birthday party! I'll chug it to say my appreciation!" 

She raised her head and emptied the glass, then returned it to the tray. After that, she went upstairs to find Reina O'flagen. She seemed indifferent but kept peeking at Edison from time to time. 

He did not yet touch the glass on the table. 

That set her kind of distraught. 

Edison had already noticed she was peeking at him, and having a glance at the two glasses, one having an olive in it that he hated, triggered his sneer. 

Nancy was too dumb at this. 

Did she think she could fool him? 

He looked down at Gwenyth in his arms, who was staying still there to cooperate with him. She was clinging to him, filling his nose with sweetness as he breathed, thus soothing his nerves in a subtle way. 

His arms went slowly down to put around her waist. 

Her tender and soft skin were comfortable to caress. 

"Let's have a drink." 

His proposal gained her attention, and after he mentioned the two glasses on the table, she sat up and reached for the cocktails. 

He didn't take the one that Nancy arranged for him but the one with an olive in it that Gwenyth took. 

"Why switch it since they are the same?"
