“Thanks, Gabriella ut I’m fine with whatever you lider for me.” Austin wanted to elicit specific response, being sure he deliberately curated his words.

And to his satisfaction, it worked as intended.

Underneath the serene expression on Westley’s manly face, underlying displeasure and contempt for Austin potently emanated from his person.

“Austin, Westley suddenly began, taking a sip of his drink. “I’ve heard about the troubles plaguing the Toster Group recently. How is Foster Group handling them? You Seem… relaxed,” Though Westley looked genuinely concemed, Austin knew better than to believe his cousin’s act,

Westley didn’t care about the Foster Group. Never had, never would. All he wanted to do at that moment was remind Austin that he could make Foster Group suffer again, not just ot, but many times.

Westley shook his head, lifting the comers of his lips.

Westley, however, seemed to be oblivious of this. A small chuckle left his mouth, making Austin more furious. “You know what? You’re right, Austin, What does the Foster Group have to do with me?”

Throughout their mocking conversation, Gabrielle kept on mustering up the courage to interrupt them. But before the tension could have escalated further between the two men, fortunately, a waiter came and served the food.

Showing how reasonable he was. Westley kept the angry expressions at bay from showing to Austin. Even if they were a fake couple, they were at least a legal one. ‘Who the hell allowed him to question our private affairs?!’ Austin pursed his lips, running of taunts.
