My Fair Stunner novel Chapter 59

Chapter 59 A Trick

Colin came straight to the point, but Faye just looked at him without saying a word.

She dared not answer him back, because she had no idea of what Colin knew about her secrets.

The sound of opening the door broke the awkward silence. Robert slid into the driver's seat.

"Mr. Farrell, are we going to Mr. Carter?" Colin looked away from Faye, and merely said, "Mmm."

Robert felt a certain tension in the air, though he didn't know what had happened in the car.

He glanced in the rearview mirror, and then rolled up the board between the front and rear seats, partitioning the inside into two sections.

As soon as the board was put up, Faye asked Colin, "What do you know?"

Colin fiddled with the cigarette case between his slender fingers, and then drew out a cigarette with his lips. "It's far more than you expected," he answered meaningfully.

"Colin," she called his name, stressing each syllable.

Colin tilted his head to Faye, and gave her a wee smile. "What?"

"What are you gonna do to me?" asked Faye.

Colin blew out a stream of smoke, and said, "I won't do anything to you. And not only that, I think I can help you with something."

As Colin had always been a complex man, Faye never ventured to be honest to him, though she had had sex with him.

She fixed her eyes on his face, trying to find a clue from his expression, but unsurprisingly she failed, because Colin was quite a master at dissembling.

Colin leaned back in the seat, idly smoking his cigarette under Faye's gaze.

Faye cast a wry glance at him. "I don't need your help."

Hearing that, Colin raised an eyebrow, and said after flipping the cigarette butt out of the window, "Don't be so sure. Come to me any time you need help."

Faye was speechless.

About 20 minutes later, they arrived at Abbot's clubhouse.

After getting off the car, Colin and Faye crossed the hall, and went straight to the top floor by elevator.

The room on the top floor was full of people. Some were playing cards, and some were drinking together.

Except Abbot, they all rose from their seats to greet Colin when he walked in.

After giving a smile in return, Colin strode over to Abbot who was playing cards absorbedly and gave him a kick on the shin.

Unsteady on his feet, Abbot fell backward, clutching at the table to steady himself in time. "Holy crap! Colin, are you trying to kill me?"

Colin took off his coat, and threw it over the arm. Then after taking a glance at Abbot's cards, he sniffed, "You're losing."

Faye teased, "Do you think you're in a position to question your boss?"

"Didn't you two get ma..." Abbot said in surprise.

Before he could finish the word "married", Colin threw his coat over Abbot's head.

Abbot shook his head under the coat, and took it off his head. He fixed his hair while cursing zxc, causing gales of laughter.

After the two of them had an amusing quarrel, someone offered his seat to Colin .

Faye was not into playing cards, so found a corner for herself with a chair, and looked at her cellphone.

Noticing that, Abbot gave Colin a kick under the table.

Colin lifted his eyelids, and looked at him.

"What happened?" Abbot whispered.
