She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 145

Chapter 145: This Is What Normal People Do

Cheyenne tapped his head with her hand. "Stop thinking about food all day and do something productive for me."

Reece shrugged and threw the banana peel into the trash can before leaning in. "What do you need?"

"You know a lot of people in the entertainment industry, right? Look at this bead. I found it at the place where Eddie had an incident."

Cheyenne handed him the bead.

"This is just an ordinary bead," Reece said as he examined it closely and even sniffed it. "Wait, there's a faint scent on it."

It smelled like natural vegetation mixed with a woman's subtle perfume.

He was familiar with that fragrance but couldn't remember where he had smelled it before.

"I must have smelled this before; yes, definitely, but I can't recall when."

Cheyenne was getting impatient listening to him mutter to himself. "Then think harder or find out where this came from."

Her words gave Reece an idea as he stood up abruptly and headed towards the door.

"You're right! I'll go ask around at various jewelry stores now," he said confidently.

However, Cheyenne stopped him suddenly by calling out to him. "Hey... wait!"

"What's wrong?" Reece turned around as she pointed at his clothes while looking disgustedly at him. "Look at your dark circles and scary makeup... You'll be mistaken for a monster!"

Reece was speechless as he quickly glanced down at himself.

"You're right; my handsome face is well-known in showbiz; I can't ruin that image like this! Let me change first, then go inquire about this matter... Don't worry too much!"

"I'm not worried. Take a rest first. I'm afraid if you drop dead, your billion-dollar estate will all be mine."

As soon as Cheyenne finished speaking, Reece turned and smiled, the white makeup on his face eerily intact. If it weren't broad daylight, Cheyenne might have been genuinely frightened by him.

He replied reassuringly while turning back to smile mischievously revealing his white makeup which looked eerie enough to scare anyone if not for daylight conditions...

"I knew you were harsh on the outside but soft inside; you care about me so much yet say such things! You're so naughty." He dragged out his words playfully making Cheyenne shudder involuntarily.

"Ha-ha! You are such a flirt!"

"Thank you for the compliment."

"Now get lost!"

Staying here was really too much to bear!

Poor little Reece, who was once again rejected by his friend, left with a heavy heart, not forgetting to snatch the unopened bag of meat floss bread from her table on the way out.

Cheyenne: "That's... my lunch."

Is this something a normal person would do?

...

At the Foley mansion, the magnificent Swarovski crystal chandelier emitted bright and dazzling light, casting shattered spots of light on the black and white floor.

On the sofa, old Mr. Foley wore a black casual shirt over a loose-fitting suit of the same color. He looked solemnly at his newspaper.
