Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 775

Grant flipped through the jewelry design catalog, raising an eyebrow. "Did she really ask you?"

"Yep, just now."

Edgar shook his head, puzzled. "But you never accepted my confession. Why would you lie to her? Lying isn’t right."

Clutching his chest dramatically, Edgar groaned, "Now, every time I see her, I'll be drowning in guilt."

Grant's tone was nonchalant. "Well, if you accept it now, technically, it won't be a lie later, right?"

Edgar's eyes widened in shock. He jumped up and moved closer to Grant, "Wait, are you serious?"

He'd hoped Grant had a change of heart, but the icy look Grant shot his way quickly shattered that hope.

Edgar caught on fast. "So, you want us to pretend to be a couple?"

A hint of admiration flickered in Grant's eyes. "Smart."

"Why though?"

Grant shrugged, "It's my business, and I don't have to explain it to you."

Edgar flopped back onto the couch, crossing his arms. He admired his freshly manicured nails with a haughty air. "How is this not my business? You think I’m just your pawn? I’m not into these deceitful games you guys play."

Grant raised the stakes, "I'll throw in an extra two percent of QUEEN's shares."

Edgar's interest was piqued, but he feigned reluctance. "Still, no. Chloe is my bestie, my confidante."

Grant's gaze was unwavering. "Fine. Five percent."
