Chapter 200 Run Naked
“Then there’s no need to place a bet.”
“You’re scared,”
“What?”
“You dare not bet because you fear that once our product hits the market, it will pose a significant threat to your company,” Emrys said provocatively,
After a moment of pause, Huxley scoffed. “I don’t know what’s gotten into you, but if you’re so keen on bringing humiliation upon yourself, I’ll take you up on your bet. If you lose, you’ll have to strip n*ked and run a lap around Honeybeauty Group’s building.”
“No problem.”
After leaving Huxley’s private cocktail party, Cordelia walked swiftly while wearing a cold expression.
Emrys trailed behind her, forcing a smile as he said, “Delia, why are you walking so fast? Are you angry with me?”
Cordelia paid him no attention.
Emrys continued, “You have to believe me. I’m not messing around. I won’t do something I’m not confident about.”
Cordelia still ignored him.
Emrys remarked, “Delia, your buttocks look good, especially in these slacks. They perfectly showcase the curves of your hips, and they look attractive whenever you move your waist.”
Cordelia was at a loss for words.
She finally lost it and turned around, pinching Emrys‘ ear as she demanded, “Why would you engage in such a pointless bet with Huxley? Don’t you realize it’s a losing game? Run n*ked? Why don’t you try doing it now?”
Emrys shielded his ear and said, “Why do you have such little faith in me?”
“Tell me how do you plan on winning, then!”
“Fine, I suppose I should tell you the truth.”
Suddenly, Emrys leaned over and whispered into Cordelia’s ear, “Actually, the formula that Huxley got was a fake.”
“A fake?”
“This is all an illusion. Just give it a few more days, and the flaws of ‘Pretty Face‘ will be completely exposed,” Emrys said, smiling.
