Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 36

Charles desperately stopped her, "No, that's not necessary. I will handle it."

At the same time, a layer of cold sweat washed over him.

He was the President of Platinum Corporation and Phoebe was Lily's best friend. How could you not know that? You sounded so mean when you spoke to him.

"Fine then, I won't interfere. Once your relationship with Lily is settled, don't forget to buy me dinner!" Phoebe kept her cellphone, bid farewell to Charles with a smile, turned around and left.

At that moment, Phoebe did not notice how awkward the smile was on Charles’ face.

"President Darby, about the contract..."

Charles smiled as he went back into the office.

Darryl said bluntly, “Sign it!" He added, "Before you sign this, there is one thing you need to understand. I don't care how Lily and you met, but you should know what to do in the future by heart."

Charles quickly said, "I understand, I understand. I promise, Lilybud and I..., no, no. Miss Lyndon and I will keep a distance."

Darryl agreed and said, "Alright, there’s nothing else then. Let me remind you, in the future, don't think too highly of yourself otherwise you will be easily embarrassed."

Charles agreed hastily, "Yes, yes!"

Reflecting on his own behavior earlier, Charles said sincerely, "President Darby wanted to get a car just now. To show my sincerity and to apologize, let me present President Darby with a car outside. How about that?" i

"Really? I will take it then."

It was a free car, so of course, he would take it.

Charles was trying to impress as he said, "You are most welcome, President Darby. We're partners now, s o what does one car cost? After the contract signing is done, please choose which model you would like."

In a moment, the contract signing was complete.

Darryl walked out of the office, followed by Charles. H e pointed to a white R8 in the middle of the showroom and said, "This model looks alright. I’ll get this one."

Charles’ stomach twisted at that moment.
