Love After One-Night Stand With CEO Chapter 96

Chapter 96 You… Hit Me?

The waiter served her coffee.

The air in the room was still for a moment.

“Then, I heard you gave up on him. Is it because Mrs. Wright didn’t allow it, or did you… find a better sugar daddy?”

Rosa bit her lips and her face turned livid.

“What’s wrong? Are you embarrassed?” Paige said mockingly. “I remember we first met at Empire International Club. In order to make money, you became a bunny girl. The money there wasn’t enough for you, was it? This was worth more money. Look, now you’re living in Silver Beach, and your brother’s medical expenses are covered, how nice!”

Rosa bit her lips and clenched her fists tightly.

After a while, her eyelashes twitched, and then she said expressionless, “Your investigation is very thorough!”

Paige snorted and took out a check from her bag.

She placed it on the table and pushed it towards her.

“Here’s five million dollars. It should be enough for you and your brother to live a lifetime. Take the money and leave him!”

Paige’s words were full of sarcasm. She was here to get rid of her husband’s mistress.

Seeing this, Rosa’s expression was cold and had a doll-like smile on her face.

“Miss Baker is really generous!”

“What’s wrong? You think it’s not enough? Ha, little girl, I advise you to accept when you have the chance, otherwise money wouldn’t be the only thing you lose from this. That would be shameful of you!”

Paige picked up her coffee and took a sip gracefully.

Her eyes were full of contempt.

She lifted her chin slightly and smiled coldly. “Miss Baker, you’re not wrong. Nobody dislikes money, but I know better what money can and cannot be taken.”

“Oh, you’re acting high and above all now? Do you really think that he will like you? Men, it’s normal for them to fool around. As for you, you are indeed a little pretty, but… how long do you think your appearance can keep him? A month, or a year? You have no background, no identity, and no status. You and him don’t belong in the same world. Do you even understand his moral values? His business?”

Rosa didn’t say anything. Indeed, she didn’t understand.

“You don’t understand anything about him. What made you think you can stand beside him? Ha, you should know that he gets tired of rich women easily, let alone a lowly poor girl like you who could be seen everywhere!”

Hearing this, Rosa’s expression changed in an instant.

These words cut deep.

She was nobody.

She was indeed poor.

And it was true that she had no background or status.

But, so what?

She never felt that she lived a worse life than others.

Then, she raised her head and stared at her coldly.

“So what if I’m poor? And so what if you’re rich? Right now, you’re the one who came to find a lowly poor girl like me to leave that man. So, is being rich really that great?”

Paige was stunned.

“If you’re really all that, why don’t you try to confront your man rather than getting rid of his mistress? Don’t forget that I’m not the only woman in this world. If you can’t keep your own husband in check, you won’t be able to handle all the women out there!”

She stood up as soon as she finished her words.

“What do you mean?” Paige was slightly angry. She smiled slightly and said, “You are wasting your time on me. Why don’t you try your best to control your man? You should know that your man has power and wealth. I have nothing. I’m poor and I have no power. Did you think I could refuse him if I wanted to?” “Ha!” Paige started laughing. Her laugh was filled with ridicule. “Miss Lopez, I didn’t expect you to be so shameless. Are you saying that my fiance is pestering you?”

“Miss Baker, the media portrays you as someone well-educated and well-mannered. Now that I’ve met you today, you’re just… a jealous woman!” Paige was stunned. She watched as Rosa smiled at her mockingly and left expressionless. It took her a while before coming back to her senses “D*mn it! How dare she say that to me?” As soon as they left the second floor, Rosa’s defence mechanism finally

cooled down. She was in pain. Sadness washed over her. And she was incredibly ashamed. If Miss Baker had said everything nicely today, she wouldn’t have retaliated like this. However, she was mocking her. So she defended herself.

However, she learned one thing from this. She could never accept that man! Although she let our her anger just now, she couldn’t deny the fact that… She was… a mistress! For a moment, sadness dwelled in her eyes. Yet, her heart was in more pain… “Hmph, why didn’t you call me when you’re free?” “Aren’t I here with you right now?” She recognised the voice.

Rosa was stunned.

She stood at the top of the stairs and stared blankly at the people walking towards her. The two of them hugged each other and walked up with a smile. They looked upwards and their gazes met. The air was still for a few seconds. “Grace…” Rosa frowned and called. Then she looked at the man who was holding her in disbelief. “Uncle… Geoffrey…” Grace immediately distanced herself from Geoffrey. She froze in place.

Geoffrey was extremely awkward.

Ten minutes later…

Rosa and Grace stood outside the building.

Both of them were silent.

“Rosa…” After a while, Grace called out in a weak voice.

Rosa looked up at her, her eyes full of astonishment. “How could you be with him?”

“I… I… I just…”

“Could it be that the mistress Miranda mentioned was you?” Rosa narrowed her eyes and stared at Grace.

Grace was stunned.

“Rosa, I… I…” She tightened her grip on the branded bag on her shoulder awkwardly. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

She was at a loss, feeling as if she’d been stripped naked.

“Why are you doing this? Why are you his mistress? He is Miranda’s father!” Rosa was extremely agitated. How could she do this?

Weren’t they friends?

Why would she even consider a friend’s father…

Grace looked at her. Her originally timid look immediately disappeared and said furiously, “What do you mean mistress? Geoffrey and I really love each other!”

Rosa frowned and looked at her in disbelief.

“I love him, and he loves me. He said that he doesn’t love that woman. That woman only cares about business. I am the woman he loves. Only I could stay beside him!”

“Smack” A slap landed on her face.

Grace was stunned. She covered her face and looked at her in shock. “You… hit me?”

“Are you crazy? You’re destroying someone else’s family. That’s Miranda’s father. You promised me that you wouldn’t be a mistress!” Rosa was very disappointed.

Grace’s eyes were red. She tried her best to hold back the tears.

“Why can’t I be a mistress? I’m living a good life now. I have a car, and I have money. I can have everything I want. Isn’t it great? Yes, you’re righteous. You look down on mistresses, and you look down on those with loose morals. But can I compare with you? You have good looks, a great figure, and you’re very smart. I didn’t even graduate from middle school, and I’m an orphan. If I don’t take advantage of my beauty and make money for myself now, how do you expect me to live when I get old?”

“How… how could you turn like this?” Rosa couldn’t believe it. How could she say such a thing?

“I’m doing this to survive. I did nothing wrong!” Grace roared.

Rosa frowned and moved backwards step by step.

This was not the Grace she knew. Absolutely not! “I don’t believe that you wouldn’t take it if you had such an opportunity.” Grace sneered. Rosa stopped in her tracks and asked, “What do you mean?” “If someone rich keeps you as his sugar baby, you’d refuse? Don’t be so arrogant. I absolutely don’t believe it!” “If I wanted to, I could get more than you have now when I was a freshman, but I chose not to!” Rosa did have the ability to do so. When she was a freshman, there were many rich men pursuing her.

If she had an ulterior motive, she would have accepted. She could have chosen any of them and would definitely have a better life compared to what she had. Chappell didn’t like her decisions. Why couldn’t she find herself a rich man when she was studying in a school for the rich and nobles? “Ha, that’s because they’re not rich enough for you. If there’s a man who has money, power, and looks, you wouldn’t accept him?” She sneered and continued, “That’s right, for example, Miranda’s uncle. He’s handsome enough. If he likes you, won’t you agree to be his mistress?” Rosa was ashamed.

Mistress! Lover! These words stabbed into her heart like a knife. It was also because of this that she was humiliated just now. Seeing that she didn’t speak, Grace thought she was right. She sneered and said, “See, if a man like Miranda’s uncle is looking for you, you’d refuse him? What kind of nonsensical joke are you making?” A moment of silence later… She bit her lip hard, and a cold smile appeared on her face. “Don’t worry, I will never be his lover!” She originally wanted to accept his feelings for her. But at this moment, that was thought completely destroyed. She could never possibly be with him. Grace didn’t say anything and just looked at her. Obviously, she didn’t believe it! “So, please stop ruining Miranda’s family!”

Grace came to her senses and grabbed her hand. “Rosa, you won’t tell Miranda, will you?” Rosa withdrew her hand and frowned. “How long do you want to stay with him?” “I… I… I swear that I will stay low. I will never destroy her family. Don’t tell Miranda, okay?” Grace knew very well that if Miranda found out about it… Then, she would be finished. Rosa didn’t say anything and just stared at her blankly.

“Rosa, I beg you. It’s not easy for me to live my life until now. I don’t want to give it up! Rosa, please don’t tell Miranda, okay? Please!” She showed a painful look, clutching her wrist tightly and begging. Rosa, however, was unusually calm. “Do you not want to give up on him, or do you not want to give up this extravagant life?” Grace’s hand suddenly froze. “I’ll give you three days. You must cut off all ties with him. Otherwise, I’ll tell Miranda!”
