Can't Resist the Billionaire novel Chapter 69

Duke could also hear that, although Vincent sounded very polite, it was obvious that he didn't want him to get in touch with his grandfather. So he smiled awkwardly, saying: "That's fine. Isn't your grandfather's 70th birthday next month? I'll visit him then!"

Duke kept mentioning that he wanted to see Vincent's grandfather, which made me very curious. What kind of big shot was Vincent's grandfather? Why was Duke Murphy, such a rich man, was so eager to see him? And he still didn't want to give up after what Vincent had said

Confused, I turned to look at Vincent and saw that he was a little annoyed by Duke's repeated mention of his grandfather. Then I tried to smooth things over, "Well, why aren't the dishes we want still here?"

Probably because the atmosphere in the room was a little gloomy, Duke hastened to say. "Yes, I'll ask the waiter!"

Then, he rang the bell next to him. Then Vincent said to Duke, "I want to buy the villa under Jasmine's name. Is it okay?"

Hearing this, Duke was slightly taken aback. He looked at Vincent as if he didn't believed what he just said. Seeing that Vincent was determined, he asked him with slight hesitation, "Have you made up your mind?"

"Yes, since long ago. Let's do it in the afternoon. You don't need to worry about the money. Once the formalities are done, the money will be transferred to your account immediately!"

Suddenly, Duke looked up into my face and said in a strange tone, "Did your father give you the money?"

Hearing his question, Vincent became a bit displeased. He replied wryly, "I got it legally anyway. Don't worry about anything else. Just help me complete the formalities!"

"Alright then. We will do it after lunch. Since you have already thought it through, I won't say anything more!" Duke laughed freely and light-heartedly. His gaze returned to me and seemed filled with admiration. Looking me up and down, he sighed, "Jasmine is indeed charming. I've never seen Vincent care about a woman so much!"

His words were mixed with praise and criticism, which made me feel strange. Vincent probably felt the same as I did, so he said unhappily, "It's not because she has charm, it's just that I want to settle down and have a family!"

Duke was shocked at his words. He looked at Vincent for a full minute before asking, "Have you decided to marry her?"

I thought the reason why Duke was so shocked was that he knew the background of Vincent's family too well. He knows that his family would never accept a divorced woman.

However, Vincent's answer was exceptional confirm. "Yes, I will marry her, but I'll need her consent first!"

After that, he suddenly turned his head and looked at me, smiling: "But now Jasmine hasn't trusted me that me, so I'll should try harder!"

Feeling a little embarrassed by what he said, I said, "Well, I need to go to the bathroom."
