His words irritated Edward and he lifted his collar hard. Minnie had always been a frail scholar. It was the first time that he had the courage to fight with someone. When he saw that he was irritated, he was not afraid at all, but felt very relieved.
Noticing the complacent smile on his face, Edward was so angry that he pushed him to the ground. When he was about to punch him, he said, "if you want to take her away, shouldn't you save some strength?"
With his cousin, Chuck's character, if he wanted to get that woman, he must try every means to sleep with her first. It was understandable if Chuck really liked her, but he knew very well that the reason why he approached Angela was that she had been with Edward.
Although he was also anxious, he didn't have the courage to strive. Now, only the man in front of her could save Angela.
Hearing this, Edward's clenched fists stopped in front of him.
There were only two streets in total in the H Administrative Region. Because the area was small and expensive, the buildings were a little dense. Through the car window, she looked at the street lamps and retreated. It was a strange city and a strange state of mind.
Angela once thought that she had no feelings for Edward at all. But when she saw him holding another woman, she realized that the grief was no less than the despair of being abandoned by Minnie. What she was more afraid of was not the loss of Edward, but the fact that she had fallen in love with him...
She put her hands on her thighs tightly and couldn't help trembling.
"Is the air conditioner too cold?" Seeing this, Chuck asked.
"What? A little..." But in fact, it was not because she was cold, but because she lost control of her emotions.
Chuck turned up the air conditioner, but she still felt utterly cold in her heart.
Fifteen minutes later, outside the hotel, Angela felt a little embarrassed, but she still bit the bullet and said, "Mr. Chuck, can I borrow money from you to check in a room? I'll pay you back when I get my bank card and phone back!"
Hearing this, he turned around and stared at her. Chuck was always expressionless. Compared with Edward's indifference, he was as cold as if his coldness could through people's body. Angela couldn't guess any of his emotions because of his stare but felt fear.
He didn't respond. He led her to the reception, took out a card and handed it to the receptionist. "Book another room for me."
When she heard what Chuck said, she looked at him gratefully.
When the receptionist saw the card, she immediately became nervous. She carefully checked it in the computer, and then said in fear, "sorry, Mr. Chuck, the hotel is full. And you have already used the priority, so you can't get another room."
Chuck frowned. The receptionist was so scared that she couldn't help trembling. Hearing this, Angela's hope was extinguished again.
"Are there still five priority rooms left?
"All rooms are occupied."
He fumbled for his wallet in his pocket, took out a bank card and handed it to her. "Help me clean out a room."
"It's almost one o'clock now..." The receptionist was in a dilemma.
"What? You can't do it?" Chuck said in a cold tone. Even in summer, people would feel cold from head to foot.
The receptionist lowered her head and trembled violently. Seeing this, Angela held his arm although she was a little afraid of Chuck and said, "forget it, Mr. Chuck!"
The H Administrative Region was known as the "paradise for shopping". It was a world of luxury, and filled with people from all over the world every day. The hotel was full in the three hundred and sixty-five days of a year. He did it on purpose to make her willing to enter his room.
"Mr. Chuck, is there a sofa in your room?" She had been with Edward for a long time and knew that it was impossible for them to live in the economic room. And the high-star hotel rooms would be equipped with sofa. If there was, she would just stay there for one night.
"Yes!"
