Chapter 137 Like a Widower
Cora left as Tyler followed behind, but Byron remained motionless with a stern
look.
Jane hurried forward. “Byron, you probably haven’t eaten anything after getting
off the plane, right? I just asked the kitchen to prepare oatmeal and pastries. You
can have some before going to the hot spring, or you might feel uncomfortable.”
Regardless of the relationship between Byron and Cora, Jane knew she had
screwed up hers today.
Therefore, Jane just wanted to take this opportunity to impress Byron with her
tenderness and consideration, wanting him to know who truly cared about him.
Probably because Byron was indeed starving, he did not refuse Jane’s
arrangement.
Soon, in a pavilion of this hot spring, several pastries and various special snacks
filled the entire table, which seemed very appetizing.
However, Byron didn’t eat much. On the contrary, Harry and his friends enjoyed
this feast pretty much.
Enter title…
“Byron, is there something wrong with the project you’re negotiating?” Some of
them were rather gossipy. Seeing that Byron had no appetite, they couldn’t help
asking.
“Byron’s project is going very well. It is said that this is the first time for a
domestic company to get a project at this price. Even my father urged me to
come over and learn from Byron!”
Harry bit a mffin while glancing at Byron, seeming to be teasing and helping him
out.
“Since it went so smoothly, why does Byron seem so unhappy?”
Knowing that Byron wouldn’t answer their question, almost everyone turned to
ask Harry.
“Unhappy? That’s not enough to describe his face. He looks like…”
Harry wanted to say that Byron looked like a widower.
However, he knew what he could say and what he couldn’t, so he didn’t blurt out.
“So, what happened to Byron?”
With more and more people asking for answers, Harry suddenly regretted what
he had done.
In fact, Harry had already seen through that Byron was upset because Cora and
Tyler went to the hot spring together.
But the problem was that he couldn’t tell the truth. Otherwise, Byron would be
annoyed, and so would Jane.
“Harry, just spill it! You and Byron are such good friends. I’m sure he won’t mind!”
“Harry, if you don’t tell us, I’ll have sufficient evidence to prove that you are
fooling us around!”
The longer Harry kept silent, the more curious the others became.
Harry almost went crazy, but since Byron and Jane were both present, he
couldn’t make up a story either.
In desperation, he pointed somewhere casually. “Look over there.”
Harry was referring to Cora, who had gone back to her room and changed into
her swimsuit.
That woman was the culprit of Byron’s unhappiness and the answer that all these
ignorant men were curious about.
But obviously, when these ignorant men saw Cora in the direction Harry pointed,
they were already all fascinated by her and completely forgot what they had
talked about just now, let alone realizing that this woman was Harry’s answer.
“Oh, geez. Her skin is so fair! How could it be possible? Her skin looks like a
freshly peeled egg.”
“Wow, I didn’t expect her figure to be so good. Why did she always wear that kind
of skirt that didn’t fit very well before? If I had her figure, I wouldn’t even close the
door when I take a shower.”
“I really don’t know why Tyler agreed to let her come out in her swimsuit. If I were
him, I would definitely lock her in the room and have fun with her for days and
nights!”
“How did you know that Tyler hadn’t done it? Maybe he had already had enough
fun with her before he came here!”
Almost every man present stared at Cora eagerly when she appeared charmingly
next to the hot spring in her swimsuit.
Byron was very annoyed, but he couldn’t help but glance at Cora out of the
corner of his eye when he heard the others’ comments.
However, this glance made the desirous flame in his eyes soar even more wildly
as if it could burn the whole world up in no time…
