Chapter 20 In a little while, I’ll make you cry
“Reeva, admit defeat! Mr. Ward and I can step aside for now,” Caelan said, giving his granddaughter a deep look before putting on his mask and walking out.
It wasn’t just for himself – he was willing to sell even his own granddaughter. It was because Reeva had made a bet with Lachlan, and one’s word should be their bond. Besides, Lachlan seemed interested in Reeva – wasn’t that a good thing?
“Mr. Willis seems like quite the ladies’ man,” Erik said suggestively as he followed Caelan out.
But in reality, Erik was calculating which of the eligible girls from the Ward family were pretty enough to introduce to Lachlan.
Lachlan had an eye for beauty? Well then!
When people wanted to get close to someone, it was most frightening when they had no desires or expectations.
As Caelan and Erik left one after another, Reeva stood there at a loss for what to do next.
The next second she glared at Lachlan with eyes that could eat him alive.
“You’re already married with child! How shameless can you be?” she gritted her teeth and cursed him out.
“Men are young until they die, don’t you know that?” Lachlan smirked.
“You…” Reeva’s face turned red. After taking a deep breath, she showed a determined look.
The next second, she closed her eyes and looked as if she was about to make a brave sacrifice.
“Fine! I’ll admit defeat. Let’s just say I am watched by a dog!” She said as she began to undo her clothes to fulfill the bet.
However, at that moment, a warm hand grabbed her wrist and stopped her actions.
“What do you mean? Do you still want to humiliate me?” Reeva asked angrily after being stunned for a moment.
Lachlan chuckled. “Forget it. Actually, I didn’t win either. The bet was that I could cure your grandfather completely but he’s not fully cured yet so let’s call it even.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Reeva exclaimed in surprise, “What?”
Just when she started having slightly better thoughts about this guy in her heart, Lachlan’s next words almost made her explode with anger.
“Besides… I’m not interested in seeing all of your thick body hair.” Lachlan sneered.
“What did you say?” Reeva stared at Lachlan with a look that could kill, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
“Am I not right? Miss Bates, do you practice martial arts all year round? However, the techniques you practice are too masculine and completely unsuitable for you.”
“Is your menstruation less and less often? They come monthly, but you’re almost on a yearly basis, right?”
“Moreover, the body hair is becoming more and more abundant!”
“If you continue like this, sooner or later, you will become a big man with a full beard!” said Lachlan.
Upon hearing this, Reeva widened her eyes and covered her cheeks as if she had already grown a beard there.
“How do you know? How do you know everything?”
A girl, having her embarrassing secret exposed by someone, one can imagine how ashamed and angry Reeva must be feeling now.
She wished she could kill Lachlan to silence him first, and then dig a hole herself to crawl into!
“I am a doctor, and observation, listening, questioning and pulse diagnosis are the basic techniques of traditional medicine. In fact, I was staring at you from the beginning because I noticed your problem!” Lachlan said naturally.
“Oh, I see! It seems that I misunderstood you? You are still a gentleman, aren’t you?” Reeva’s pretty face turned red and she stared at Lachlan, asking.
She was so ashamed and angry that she could barely speak, but after taking a deep breath, she gritted her teeth and asked, “Can you cure it?”
Although it was embarrassing to have such a shameful secret revealed by someone of the opposite sex who was about her age, Reeva still asked with suppressed anger after seeing the effect of Lachlan’s treatment on her grandfather.
“You don’t need to be cured. Just stop practicing for a year or two and you’ll naturally recover!” Lachlan laughed.
“But I like kung fu. Is there no other way?” Reeva’s eyes dimmed.
“Well, I have a martial art that is suitable for girls. I’ll write it down for you when I get back!” Lachlan thought for a moment and said.
In his memory, besides Dragon Soul Immortal Technique, Dragon Emperor’s Canon and Dragon Gaze Heavenward Technique, there were also some miscellaneous things that were suitable for women’s cultivation techniques.
“Really?” Reeva’s beautiful eyes lit up as soon as she heard this.
Lachlan nodded. “Alright, I’ll trust you this time! If you dare to deceive me, I’ll kill you!”
“Give me your phone number!” Reeva said, biting her lip and trying to sound fierce.
…
When Lachlan left the Ward family’s house, it was already 8 pm.
Erik insisted on having dinner with him and Nora before sending Rowan to take Lachlan and his daughter home. Unfortunately, Lachlan had searched the Ward family’s medicine room but didn’t find any Dragon Marrow Herb. However, Nora was feeling much better now and wasn’t in a rush.
Two more days passed! During these two days, he mainly helped Nora enroll in school with the help of the Ward family’s connections. She would be attending the same kindergarten as Chloe.
The two kids had a great time playing together that day when they found out that they would be going to school soon and could play with other children.
The next morning after Lachlan dropped off Nora at school, he called Miranda to let her know he could start working today. She told him to come directly to the company. When he arrived by taxi at the company entrance though, security stopped him.
“Hold on there! Who are you?” A security guard gave Lachlan a once-over and asked, “Who are you?”
“I’m the new assistant to Ms. Lowe,” Lachlan replied.
“I’ve never heard of an assistant for Ms. Lowe. Do you have any identification? If not, get lost!” the guard said rudely.
Lachlan frowned at his words. Miranda had told him that he was her exclusive driver and assistant from now on, but she hadn’t given him any identification to prove it.
Just as he was about to call Miranda to ask her to talk to the guard, a beautiful figure caught his eye.
It was Shelly Parry, Miranda’s secretary!
Miranda had told him before coming here that he should find someone named Shelly Parry and she would arrange an office for him.
So when Lachlan saw Shelly’s name tag approaching, his eyes lit up with recognition.
“Are you Shelly Parry?” he called out excitedly. “I’m Ms. Lowe’s new assistant and this guard doesn’t know me. Can you explain who I am?”
As someone close to Miranda, Lachlan thought that Shelly must know why he was there.
But after giving him a quick glance over her shoulder, Shelly asked in a sarcastic tone, “Oh really? Who are you? I don’t remember seeing you before.”
Lachlan felt anger boiling up inside of him at her mocking expression.
He knew that she was deliberately making things difficult for him.
“I am Ms. Lowe’s husband, she just called me to come to the company. As her secretary, don’t you know?” Lachlan asked coldly.
“Ms. Lowe’s husband? That’s hilarious! You really think you’re her husband? You’re just a dog, a tool for Ms. Lowe! Don’t think that just because she called you back, you’re someone important! Trash!” Shelly said contemptuously, mercilessly humiliating Lachlan.
As Miranda’s personal secretary, of course she knew that Miranda had found herself an “fiancé”.
Shelly also knew what kind of person this “fiancé” was like and looked down on Lachlan even more in her heart.
Lachlan glared at her and suddenly his eyes flashed as he stared at the beautiful secretary’s chest with a cold smile on his lips!
This woman had big problems!
Humiliating him and making things difficult for him huh?NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
In a little while, he’ll make you cry!
“Asshole! What are you looking at?”
“I never thought that a worthless dog like you would be so disgusting!”
Shelly felt Lachlan’s gaze and her face immediately changed. She covered her collar and cursed.
