Lie Flat, Sugar Daddy

Chapter 12 You Are Not Qualified to Negotiate

“Jensen, I am begging you please, can you make him bankrupt please?” Rae begged. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Back then, her mother probably had a feeling that something was going to happen to the Jordan’s, that

was why she left, if the Barnes family also ended, then would her mother had come back? If anything

happened to the Barnes family, then Nia that bitch wouldn’t have made her any trouble anymore, Nia

made her life so hard, she wouldn’t make it easy on her either!”

Jensen felt a little burdened, especially since only he knew about some of the secrets, seeing

everything from a more general view, he couldn’t do that, “Are you sure? Mr. Barnes treats you quite

well.”

“He just feels guilty!” Rae suddenly yelled, “Before my father got into trouble, he already started flirting

with my mother, he wanted her to cheat on my father, even if he knelt down and licked my feet, I would

never forgive him!” She wouldn’t forget that this asshole destroyed her whole family, just because they

treated her bit better now.

Jensen thought that she didn’t watch her language, he wanted to blame her, but she was sobbing so

sadly, he didn’t bring that up, so he tried to tell her, “Rae, you are angry right now, wait till you calmed

down and then we can talk. If you want to pay Nia back, I will help you, but Mr. Barnes...”

Jensen stopped talking, there were some things he didn’t know how to explain to Rae.

“If you don’t help me, I will find someone else to do that!” Rae said, then she got up and ran out of the

room, and slammed the door. She was busy being furious, but she didn’t even notice anything strange

about Jensen, she didn’t notice that Jensen who always took revenge for her without her request, was

hesitating this time.

Jensen who was sitting on the sofa now, only sighed, he put down the things in his hands, and took his

phone to walk to the balcony, then he called a number.

On the balcony.

The night wind was hot, but Jensen felt cool.

The phone only rang twice before it was picked up, the person must have expected his call, because

she started the conversation with, “She told you?”

“Madam.” Jensen said, it sounded respectful, but it was actually cold and distant.

“I don’t know what she told you, but don’t think that what I did was over the line. Mr. Knight, you should

know, I have done what you told me, I have stepped back a lot.” Lola said, it sounded very cold and

light, but there was respect in it, she didn’t dare to talk to him rudely.

Jensen didn’t answer, just changed the topic, “Next month is her birthday.”

Lola saw that Jensen was still cooking up dreams for Rae, and was angry, “You know that I will never

love her, why would you try to make it hard on me? If you really want to give her the best, then you

should make her figure things out clearly, and not give her hope for no reason.”

“Lola, you should be aware that you have no right to talk about any conditions.” Jensen held his phone

in the left hand, with his right hand tapping on the railing in a rhythm. His voice was as calm as usual,

but the content was slowly rising up, “You know the Barnes Food Company is nothing in my eyes, I

haven’t touched it only because of Mr Barnes, but if you keep hurting her, then I will have my own ways

to make you all pay for that!”

“You...” Even through the phone, Lola could feel the coldness of the other side as if he was about to kill

her. Lola knew, Jensen who always backed off when it came to Rae, would never do the same for her!

“It’s Rae’s birthday next month, she’s got her eyes on a necklace, I will send it to you and you should...”

“Jensen, what are you doing? I am hungry!”

Rae stayed for a while in her room, but her stomach started rumbling, so she gave up and came out by

herself. As soon as she was out she saw Jensen taking a call on the balcony. Even though she didn’t

see his face, but she had the illusion that he was surrounded by coldness.

Jensen immediately hung up the phone. His tone turned to be normal without any hostility, and then he

turned to the living room, and looked at her, “Are you not angry anymore?”

Rae raised her hand and scratched her nose, even though she felt awkward, but she didn’t want to

show her weakness, “I am, but maybe after meal.”

Jensen was helpless, he rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen to prepare food for her.

Rae followed him into the kitchen, she looked around, her face looked as if she had a bad idea,

“Jensen, did you get the message I sent you?”

“Are there any women like you?” Jensen was so angry with her that he frowned. Every festival, she

would tell him what she wanted as a present, he only had to buy it. He didn’t mind about Christmas,

birthday or the Valentine’s Day, but she would even ask for gifts on every festivals and even

anniversaries, Jensen was speechless.

Her newest message was that she wanted the newest necklace from a designer brand for her birthday.

“What is wrong with me? I think I am quite helpful, I send you what I want, so that you don’t need to

think about what to send for me.In this way the gift will be my favorite, and you won’t waste the money.

Isn’t that a win-win strategy?” Rae argued, then, she added, “I mean, maybe you don’t need to send

me that necklace, Jensen.”

“Send me a baby.”

“Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem!”

As soon as Rae said that, Jensen started to cough, the knife in his hand moved so that he almost cut

off his own finger.

“Rae, out and wait!” Clearly, Jensen didn’t, catch the point and was not aware that her main topic was

that she wanted to have a baby with him. After he realized that, he regretted that he didn’t understand it

earlier.

“Hmm.” Rae looked at him, then turned to leave.

...

The next day in the afternoon, Rae had a shopping plan with Isabella after she finished some stuffs in

the office. She wanted to buy some awesome outfits for the class reunion. The two of them met at the

luxury store and when Isabella saw Rae, the first thing she asked was, “Where do you get the money

for shopping?”

Isabella knew that Rae had huge debts every month, and she had to pay Heath’s medical fees.

Clearly Jensen had a lot of money, and it would be easy for him to pay for this little money, but Isabella

didn’t know why Jensen paid in dribs and drabs, not all at once, as if he found this a excuse for Rae to

stay.

“After you left, Jensen wrote a check to me, he told me to buy some outfits for the reunion, I just

learned that that he eavesdropped my conversation.” Rae was complaining, but her dimples appeared

when she smiled.

Isabella heard that and also started smiling, but in her heart she was feeling bitter, “Haha, Jensen is so

good to you.”

“Not that much.” Rae waved her off, and didn’t take it to heart. Then the two of them started wandering

around the stores, the staff all noticed that Isabella was in brand names from up to down, so they were

all nice to her, Rae looked down on herself, she was too ordinary, no wonder they didn’t even look at

her. Actually Jensen also had a lot of designer clothes, but since she was thirsty for money, so she sold

all of them, and bought herself some cheaper ones. But Jensen got so angry that he never bought her

anything again since then. Rae was used to being poor, whenever she saw something she liked, the

first thing she would check was the price. After a few checks, she complained, “Why is everything so

expensive here?”

“It’s actually alright, ten thousand is not that much for these brands.” Isabella was looking at some

clothes, then she said, “I heard that Karina likes to wear haute couture. Just a normal dress may cost

tens of thousands.”

Karina.

Rae was actually in a good mood, but after hearing the name she felt as if a bucked of ice water was

poured on her, she looked at Isabella, why did she feel that she was always mentioning this name?

As Isabella noticed her confused eyes, she explained, “Sorry Rae, I just got to know her a while ago at

a cocktail party, she is a really good person, so I can’t... if you mind, I will not mention her again, okay?”

“It’s alright, we are not kids anymore, it’s up to you that who you decided to make friends with.” Rae

didn’t feel good since Karina was not only taking away her sponsor, but now she was going to take her

friend as well. Rae was pretending to be okay, so she waved her hands and said that she wouldn’t

mind. Her excitement about shopping was ruined with just one sentence, Rae felt that everything was

expensive, so she said, “I don’t want to buy anymore, it’s just about face, I will not be hurt by gossips.”

Isabella left.

Rae was standing in front of the mall waiting for Jensen’s assistant to pick her up, but before he came,

she saw an old classmate who she hadn’t seen in a long time.

“Oh, yeah, isn’t that the beauty queen of our high school?”

The pretentious voice of that person made Rae feel very uncomfortable, she laughed and said, “My

defeated opponent, it’s been a long time!”

When Belle heard that, her brows raised, she was about to get angry, but she saw the cheap clothes

Rae was wearing. What’s the use of the pretty face? If she wore no brands, she had nothing to be

proud of. And coming out of the mall empty handed, she thought that she couldn’t afford them. As Belle

thought about that, suddenly she started laughing, “So I guess our beauty queen is getting old, so you

aren’t as attracting as before? Why are you living like this now?”

“Don’t you get bored of it? You have been fighting for this tittle of beauty queen against me for so long,

don’t you think it’s naive?” Rae hated such hidden meanings.

“Rae, I am not only fighting against you about that, I just hate the way you have double faces! You said

that you wouldn’t take part in the competition, but why did you still join? After that you said you didn’t

care about it, but you asked everyone to vote for you, and you even convinced my voters. You make

me sick!” Belle was furious. Even though it passed for long, but she could still feel that hatred in her

heart, it was the same like someone kept saying all the time that they didn’t study before an exam, but

they would always get the highest score. She hated such a hypocrite!
