Chapter 982: Zuo Hong Takes the Initiative
Milo Field is such a smart guy; as soon as he heard her, he knew she was jealous.He immediately got up, walked up the stairs, stood on the step below her, and supported her, saying, "We were talking about you. I’m really curious about your childhood, everything about you. So, I asked your cousin to tell me some of your stories. I was so engrossed that I forgot all about the pain in my back."
Zoe Lewis listened with admiration. He could really lie with his eyes wide open. Clearly, he was asking if she had a boyfriend, obviously flirting with her!
She now somewhat understood why Isabella Weaver was deceived by Milo Field in the past.
Not only is Milo Field handsome, but he’s also gentle and considerate to everyone. His sweet-talking skills come effortlessly. If it’s an inexperienced, innocent girl, the chances of being duped are almost a hundred percent.
Zoe Lewis, holding her face in her hands, watched Milo Field gazing up at Cherry Lewis, embracing her waist and gently whispering to her. She gave Milo a very fair evaluation in her mind: a central-air-conditioner-type playboy!
She suddenly thought of Young Master Hunter, who couldn’t care less about anyone, and found him more pleasing to the eye.
Although she couldn’t conquer Young Master Hunter, no one else could either, which could somewhat console her wounded heart.
Just as Zoe was pondering, she suddenly received a text message on her phone.
When she opened it, it was from Young Master Hunter.
"I’ll pick you up after work tonight, and you can have dinner at my place."
Zoe was so shocked she almost dropped her phone!
This is huge!
Does the sun rise in the west now?!
Young Master Hunter actually took the initiative to invite her to his place for dinner!
Zoe was overjoyed and was about to reply with "Okay," but then she decided to play it cool: "No, I have plans tonight."
She waited a long time, until Milo Field had already coaxed Cherry and the two of them went to Cherry’s bedroom embracing each other, only then did she finally receive Young Master Hunter’s reply.
His message couldn’t be shorter: "Okay."
Zoe was so angry she jumped off the sofa!
What’s so okay about it!
What on earth is so okay?!
Couldn’t he re-invite her after she refused?
Couldn’t he see she was being coy?!
And why did he take so long to reply?
She replied in seconds, but his reply took ages!
Had she known, she wouldn’t have come to S City to find him; she should have let him dig coal and work himself to death!
Zoe grumbled about Young Master Hunter in her mind, but still, against her better judgment, she texted him: "Even though I have plans, since you’ve invited me, I’ve decided to drop everything else and give you face by coming over for dinner!"
Far away, in the Star Region Group building, Young Master Hunter received the message and had a faint smile on his lips.
He knew that her refusal was just an act; she was dying to come over and dig for his secrets.
His long fingers quickly typed on the phone screen: "You don’t have to give me face."
"No, no, no, you’re Young Master Hunter’s secretary, you must be given face! What time will you pick me up?"
"Around 5:30."
"Great! I’ll wait for you! If you dare not come, I’ll go to your company and make a scene, got it?"
Young Master Hunter looked at the message, and he could almost imagine her gritted-teeth expression at that moment.
He chuckled softly, put away his phone, and continued working on his computer.
After sending the message, Zoe waited and waited but never got Young Master Hunter’s final response.
She was extremely annoyed, and finally, unable to take it any longer, she disregarded all pretense and directly messaged him: "Why aren’t you replying? Say something!"
