Lara Jean was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She glared at Chuck Cannon with disdain. "Then look all you want. But can you touch me? You can only look for the rest of your life."
Lara shot Chuck another glare and snorted. When she saw her cousin, Charlotte Yates, coming over, she walked over.
Chuck laughed. "I'm afraid you don't know that I'm your baller!" He thought.
I'll see what you’ll do tonight!
Charlotte came over and suggested that they could have a barbecue. It would be cheaper to eat as a group. Moreover, the plaza has some good barbecue restaurants. Chuck had no objections. He thought that he might as well pack a meal for Yvette Jordan. After all, it was already time for lunch.
However, when he looked up, he saw that Yvette had just come out of a restaurant alone. She was perspiring slightly. He guessed that Yvette must have eaten some spicy dishes for lunch.
After her meal, Yvette did not see Chuck but directly took the elevator to her office. She had been very busy recently, so she should be in a hurry to deal with the company's affairs. Chuck recently realized that Yvette was busy until late at night. He felt quite distressed that she was being overworked.
He sighed.
"I'm starving. Come on, stop dawdling and I am not asking you to pay for the meal anyway." Lara's unhappy voice came over.
Chuck walked over.
Charlotte put her hand on Lara, who was even more upset. "It's true, cousin. Let me tell you, this guy has cheated me of 6,000 dollars the last time!"
Charlotte was surprised. "Chuck is so rich, why would he want to cheat her for so little money?”
"What's going on?" Charlotte asked in a low voice. Lara curled her lip and explained. Charlotte rolled his eyes at her and said, "You think he’s stupid, don't you?"
"What? He agreed to let me bring a friend over. But in the end, he didn’t pay for it. I hate him so much." Lara said.
"Nonsense. It's your fault. 6000 is nothing for him." Charlotte really couldn't keep her cousin under control.
"What are you talking about? He's really poor. If you ask him to take out six thousand dollars now, he definitely won't have it," Lara said.
Charlotte was helpless. It would not be a problem for him to bring out tens of thousands of dollars. Unfortunately, Lara had no idea!
Chuck walked over. Charlotte hurriedly told Lara not to say anything more. She just wanted to have a good meal.
The three of them took the elevator upstairs and went to the fourth floor for lunch. They entered a hotpot restaurant and sat down. After ordering, the three of them began to eat.
In fact, there was a reason why Lara was in good shape. She liked meat, and there were all kinds of meat. Charlotte just ate more vegetables. No wonder she was so thin.
Chuck ate everything. The meal was not bad. The three of them ate for less than 200 dollars. Charlotte went to pay the bill.
"So this settles it," Lara said to Chuck
"What do you mean?"
"You bought dinner the last time, so we’re even now!”
Chuck was speechless. The last time, he spent more than 7,000 dollars, but this meal cost only 200. How could they compare? However, Chuck didn't think too much about it and just nodded.
"You still think it's a loss, don't you? My cousin and I have been peeped at by you for the whole morning, and we suffered a loss." Lara was not happy, and the more she thought about it, the more unhappy she felt. "Does this bastard really have the nerve to ask women to pay for him? No wonder he is single."
Chuck ignored her and drank up the rest of the drinks. He didn't want to waste them. Lara saw his behavior, which made her murmur disapprovingly.
"It seems that he has never had a drink before. Such a cheap person and my cousin says that he can fork out 6,000 dollars? Is it possible?"
But at this time, a surprised and unexpected voice came to Chuck's ears. "Chuck..."
As soon as Chuck turned around, he saw a few people coming out of the restaurant after finishing their meal. They were Zelda Maine, Manny Peters, and the other two ladies.
Manny was the one who called his name. She thought she was mistaken. After all, there was a young and pretty girl sitting opposite him.
In the morning, why hadn't Chuck come over? Zelda had said that Chuck was busy with work and she didn't think much about it. But if he was busy with work how could he be hanging out with a girl for lunch?
Manny was furious, and the other two women were quite conservative too. How could he? He was Zelda’s man.
How could he come out to have lunch with another girl?
