Black Rose: Revenge Of The Callous Heiress novel Chapter 74

"What a beautiful and cute young girl she is.” Christopher couldn't help but remark in admiration after Rose closed the door. The moment he saw Rose, was the same moment he liked her and wanted to dote on a beautiful young girl like her. She was the little sister he never got the chance to have.

"You should see how scheming and cunning she is.” Alex suddenly remarks, recalling his two recent encounters with her at the jewelry shop and at the boutique.

However, his remark suddenly made his three friends turn towards him with a questioning gaze. “What do you mean by that, Alex?" Nicholas asked.

“Have you met her before? Do you know her?" Edward also added.

“I won't say we knew each other. After all, she was my girlfriend for five minutes." Alex calmly replied.

“What?! Have you lost your mind completely? How can you choose a beautiful and innocent young girl like her as your girlfriend?.....wait! Did I hear correctly just now?!" Christopher, who was ready to lash out at Alex, suddenly stopped after his brain processed the word over and over again.

“You had a girlfriend for five minutes? How is that possible?" He added as he looked at Alex like he was seeing a different creature of Alex.

Alex just glared dangerously at him. However oblivious to his friend's deadly glare, Christopher went ahead and said his mind.

“We all thought you were gay since you have no interest in any woman. I mean, you're always a block wall when it comes to women and today, I must say, was the first time you relaxed around a woman. I'm starting to think that you aren't a gay just like the rumors……" Christopher blurted out with a smirk while wiggling his eyebrows up and down. He trailed off with his speech as his gaze landed on Alex.

As soon as Edward realized the direction of Christopher’s thoughts, he raised his hand and smacked him at the back of his head.

Smack!

"Aw! Hey! What was that for?" Christopher cried out in an aggrieved tone, while turning to look at Edward who was obviously the one that smacked him.

He couldn't help but rub the back of his head. 'Damn! That hurts!'

"Because of what you are saying.” Edward calmly replied.

" So, what did I say? Is that why you have to smack me like that?” Christopher glared at him back.

"Then would you rather him do it?” Edward plainly stated, as he gestured to Alex with the side of his eyes.

Knowing who the 'he' in Edward's statement was, Christopher turned towards him to check him. He was greeted with the scowling expression on Alex's face, meaning he heard him.
