After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 994

Chapter 994 Silent Night

Besse picked out a set of clothes and headed to the bathroom with them. After showering, she put on the outfit and was surprised at how perfectly it fit her. Looking at herself in the mirror, she couldn't help but wonder if Oscar had any ulterior motives towards her. She even suspected that he might have done something to her because the accuracy was too precise.

Lost in thought, Besse's phone suddenly rang. It was Doyle.

"Where are you?" Doyle asked bluntly as soon as she answered.

Besse pursed her lips, unsure of whether or not to tell him that she was with Oscar. If she did, Doyle would come back immediately no matter what happened. But if she didn't tell him, it would weigh on her conscience for deceiving him.

Just as Besse struggled with what to say next, Doyle continued speaking casually, "Northfield is hyping up this whole thing."

It seemed like he wasn't particularly interested in where Besse was. After all, where else could she be besides a hotel?

"Northfield doesn't have any famous designers," he went on. "Now that they've finally caught a well-known designer plagiarizing their work, some people are bound to make a big deal out of it. And that's just how the fashion industry works, the more hype there is around something, the hotter it gets. That will increase their profits. I just saw the sales of the company where 'Phantom' is, it went through the roof, almost tenfold."

Everyone might think that Phantom's design might be a hit later on, and even some fans intended to support Phantom, so they bought clothes designed by Phantom.

"Just be careful when you go out." Doyle warned before continuing, "Avoid reporters at all costs and don't get hurt! Once I'm done handling things here at headquarters I'll come back right away."

"Don't worry about me," Besse assured him confidently.

"Do you know what? Sometimes I wish you weren't so independent." Doyle said softly before adding, "If you relied on me more often then we wouldn't be so far apart from each other."

"Okay okay," Besse urged impatiently," You should go handle your business now while I rest up for tomorrow's meeting with 'Phantom'. Gotta keep my energy levels high."

There were many emotional things that she didn't want to talk about too much. She felt like it would be a burden.

"Be careful tomorrow, call me before you go, and I'll find a way to have someone protect you and go with you," Doyle said.

"We'll see." Besse gave a runaround.

Doyle knew her personality. So he just gave a few more reminders before hanging up the phone.

Besse put down her phone and walked over to the big bed next to her, lying down on it. She wasn't tired, but she felt emotionally drained. Her mood couldn't improve in this situation.

She fell asleep without realizing it.

Besse didn't know what time it was when she woke up again. Looking out the window, it seemed like night had fallen completely over the yard outside. Everything was peaceful and quiet.

It was so peaceful that she liked this feeling and even wanted to immerse herself in it for a while. But she couldn't do so because this was Oscar's home. After finishing what needed doing here, she could come back home and rest properly.
