Love After One-Night Stand With CEO Chapter 42

Chapter 42: How Shameless

One hour later.

“Grace, are you sure we are eating here?” Rosa frowned and looked around. She felt that it wasn’t so appropriate.

Today, Grace dyed her hair black and dressed conservatively, which was quite unusual. She looked much more innocent compared to her usual self. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“I just want to thank you! Rosa, thank you for introducing me to such an amazing job!” Grace was trembling in excitement.

“We don’t have to be so extra. One portion of steak here costs 128 dollars, with that amount of money we can already eat three meals at the place in Phoenix Road…” Rosa hurriedly continued, “Grace, money is the only thing we need right now, you shouldn’t be wasting it like this!”

“Aw, Rosa, I know you’re worried about me. It’s okay, I’ll be extravagant just this once. I won’t do this again in the future,” Grace said with a smile.

“Then you can just order one portion. I’m not hungry, really!” Rosa said sincerely.

Grace was moved. “Rosa, I know you care for me. I promise I won’t be so extravagant next time!”

Hearing this, Rosa didn’t know what to say.

Soon, the waiter served them two sets of steak.

“Rosa, have a try.” Grace said enthusiastically.

Rosa forced a smile, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

She thought that Grace should’ve known better not to be so wasteful since she was in such a big debt.

But since she had already ordered it, it wouldn’t be nice of her to still pull a long face.

“Rosa, you know, I was so excited when you told me about it today,” Grace said excitedly while cutting the steak.

“Grace, you need to do your job well. I know you can find another job with the same salary, but this job is more relaxing. Besides, you need a stable job!”

“Yeah, I like this job a lot. Heavens, not even in my dreams would I thought that I’d be able to work at uncle’s house!”

“Uncle?” Rosa frowned.

“Yeah, don’t you call him uncle? I can’t call him that?” Grace was confused.

“No, nothing.” Rosa was a little embarrassed.

“Rosa, don’t worry. I’ll pay back the two million dollars in no time!” Grace said firmly.

Rosa was puzzled. “‘In no time’? What are you planning to do?”

“Do you still remember what I told you?” Grace smirked cunningly.

Rosa remembered and widened her eyes in an instant. “You… you mean, you want to…”

“That’s right, I must get close to him. At that time, let alone two million dollars, he’ll even be willing to let me spend twenty million dollars!” Grace was excited at the thought of being a step closer to getting rich.

“Grace, please don’t have any ideas, I introduced this job to you so that you could have a stable income, not for you to…”

“Oh, I know. Don’t worry about it. Eat up!” Grace said hurriedly.

Rosa’s mouth opened as she wanted to advise her, but seeing that she wasn’t going to listen to her, she could only keep quiet.

At this moment, she didn’t know whether she had helped or harmed her.

“Hey, isn’t that the uncle Henry?” Grace suddenly exclaimed.

Hearing this, Rosa quickly followed her gaze.

In the 60-inch television in front of the counter, Henry was surrounded by countless reporters.

No, that was not the point.

The point was that he was holding a woman in his arms.

This woman…

She vaguely recalled a figure in her mind.

Rosa immediately connected the dots. “Isn’t that the woman she saw last time at the penthouse?”

In the TV, the journalists kept asking questions.

“Mr. Lewis, are you getting engaged to Miss Baker?”

“Mr. Lewis, I heard that Mr. Baker wanted you to marry his daughter and that he will hand over Baker Enterprise to you as your wedding gift. Is it true?”

Henry only smiled elegantly at everyone’s questions.

Seeing that he remain silent, the reporters immediately pointed their microphones at Paige.

“Miss Baker, I heard that you are getting engaged, is that right?” The reporter asked hurriedly.

Paige showed them a ‘wealthy daughter’ smile. “I’m sorry. It hasn’t been decided yet. The decision is yet to be made by my boyfriend.”

Henry smiled and walked inside with the petite woman in his arms.

Countless reporters tried to rush in but were stopped by the security guards.

“F*ck, how shameless!” Grace furiously stabbed her fork into the steak.

Rosa agreed with her. “Indeed, how shameless!”

Sure enough, this man was a monster in the body of a human!

He had a girlfriend, yet he still messed with her!

“I can tell at a glance that this woman is a scheming b*tch!” Grace snorted.

Rosa was stunned and looked at her in dismay. “Who are you talking about?”

“Of course it’s that Paige girl. F*ck, she thinks she’s so great just because she’s rich. Did you see that? Her looked so eager to be engaged to uncle just now. Ha, uncle is so cool, he didn’t agree to it!” As soon as she said this, she smirked and said, “Uncle is mine!”

The corners of Rosa’s mouth twitched, and she was speechless.

It seemed like they both had completely different ideas.

After the meal, Grace bid farewell to her.

“Rosa, I have to go first. I need to pack up my stuff.”

“Are you sure you want to live there? Luke said that you didn’t have to, right?” Rosa frowned.

“How do you think I’m supposed to get close to him?”

“But doesn’t grandma need someone to take care of her at night?” This was what she cared about the most.

Grace was stunned and immediately said, “Grandma can take care of herself. Don’t worry, I won’t be away from her for too long. The faster I make uncle mine, grandma would be able to enjoy life at the mansion.”

Hearing this, Rosa felt that she was exaggerating.

Therefore, she wanted to advise her, “Grace, you…”

“Okay, I have to go now.” Grace’s mind was already in Lewis Mansion. She definitely had no means to listen to what she has to say.

Seeing this, Rosa sighed helplessly.

She turned around and walked home.

—

On a summer night.

It only became dark after 7 p.m.

However, Lewis Mansion was still completely bright even though it was dark at night.

At this moment, the maids had already finished their work in the garden.

Grace was astonished at the scene of countless servants moving around the luxurious residence.

Was this what it feels like to be rich?

Her heart was beating uncontrollably.

She wanted to be the owner of this mansion!

At this moment, a silver Lamborghini showed up.

Grace was a little stunned. Who was this?

The car came to a stop and a chauffeur hurriedly went over.

The chauffeur was in charge of parking the car in the garage.

The driver bowed down and opened the door respectfully.

The tall figure of a man appeared right in front of her.

It was him!

Uncle Henry!

Oh God, didn’t he drive a Hummer last time?

How was there another Lamborghini?

Or could it be that did he owned more than one luxury car?

Grace frantically rushed forward.

Although the maids had mentioned that they should behave well when the master returns home.

But she still couldn’t stop herself from running over.

She felt that she was different from the other maids!

“Uncle Henry, you’re back!” She bowed and smiled.

The man narrowed his eyes at her. His noble and powerful aura made Grace feel pressured.

“Why are you here?”

Grace hurriedly lowered her head and grinned. “I, I applied to be a maid here. Well, I was introduced by Rosa…”

“Ha!” Henry laughed in a low voice.

That “kitten” was already busy enough, yet she kept thinking about others!

“Uncle, rest assured, I will do my best here.” Grace couldn’t read his thoughts, she didn’t dare to change the topic.

The man gazed at her indifferently. “Uncle?”

Grace bit her lips and said embarrassedly. “Well, I’m Miranda’s friend. Rosa and Miranda call you uncle, so I call you uncle too…”

The man looked up, expressionless. “Not anyone is qualified to call me uncle!”

That simple sentence vividly conveyed his contempt.

Grace was so embarrassed that she froze on the spot.

The man strode into the house and left.

—

“Good night.” Rosa said good night to her brother and closed the door.

After that, she returned to her room.

Sitting in front of the small desk, she started doing the questions that Mr. Wright gave her last time.

At that time, her cell phone suddenly rang.

It was an unknown number.

Who could it be?

“Hello, hello!”

“I feel bad not being able to see you.” A soft chuckle came from the other side of the call.

Rosa’s hands trembled and she almost dropped the phone.

“You, you, you… How did you get my number?” Rosa was stunned.

“Why? You don’t even address me anymore?”

Biting her lips, Rosa cursed in her mind, “Shameless jerk!”

“Not talking? Are you secretly cursing at me?” As if he knew everything about her, he guessed her actions accurately.

Rosa’s lips twitched and she hurriedly explained, “No, how could I curse at you, un… uncle!”

She raised her middle finger as she spoke.

That’s right, she despised the pervert on the other end of the phone!

A smile could be heard from the voice on the other side of the call. “Lying makes you a bad girl.”

Rosa frowned. Her being good or bad has nothing to do with him. She was not his child!

Afterwards, she said coldly, “How can I help you? Is it about young master?”

“What? I can’t call you if it’s not related to young master?”

“I’m sorry. If it’s nothing related to his studies, I have no need to answer you! Goodbye!”

“Hang up if you dare!”

Rosa was about to hang up, but his words made her froze in place.

“You… what on earth are you trying to do?”

“What do you think?” He smirked as he dragged out his sentence playfully.

Rosa was stunned. Then she immediately rebuked, “You pervert!”

The man chuckled and could picture her blushing, shy and annoyed face.

“I didn’t say anything just now!” He chuckled, “What, what were you thinking?”

Rosa was stunned and her face flushed, but she was unable to refute.

There wasn’t any sound from the phone.

“Ha!”

The laughter from the other side made her even more annoyed.

“You… Shame on you!” Rosa could not win against him, so she furiously hung up the phone directly.

“D*mn, what a shameless b*stard!” she thought.

“Knock! Knock! Knock!” Someone knocked on the door.

Rosa was startled and dropped her phone.

Heavens…

Could it be… that b*stard?!
