Love After One-night Stand with CEO novel Chapter 96

The waiter served her coffee.

The air in the room was still for a moment.

"Then, I heard you gave up on him. Is it because Mrs. Wright didn't allow it, or did you... find a better sugar daddy?"

Rosa bit her lips and her face turned livid.

"What's wrong? Are you embarrassed?" Paige said mockingly. "I remember we first met at Empire International Club. In order to make money, you became a bunny girl. The money there wasn't enough for you, was it? This was worth more money. Look, now you're living in Silver Beach, and your brother's medical expenses are covered, how nice!"

Rosa bit her lips and clenched her fists tightly.

After a while, her eyelashes twitched, and then she said expressionless, "Your investigation is very thorough!"

Paige snorted and took out a check from her bag.

She placed it on the table and pushed it towards her.

"Here's five million dollars. It should be enough for you and your brother to live a lifetime. Take the money and leave him!"

Paige's words were full of sarcasm. She was here to get rid of her husband's mistress.

Seeing this, Rosa's expression was cold and had a doll-like smile on her face.

"Miss Baker is really generous!"

"What's wrong? You think it's not enough? Ha, little girl, I advise you to accept when you have the chance, otherwise money wouldn't be the only thing you lose from this. That would be shameful of you!"

Paige picked up her coffee and took a sip gracefully.

Her eyes were full of contempt.

She lifted her chin slightly and smiled coldly. "Miss Baker, you're not wrong. Nobody dislikes money, but I know better what money can and cannot be taken."

"Oh, you're acting high and above all now? Do you really think that he will like you? Men, it's normal for them to fool around. As for you, you are indeed a little pretty, but... how long do you think your appearance can keep him? A month, or a year? You have no background, no identity, and no status. You and him don't belong in the same world. Do you even understand his moral values? His business?"

Rosa didn't say anything. Indeed, she didn't understand.

"You don't understand anything about him. What made you think you can stand beside him? Ha, you should know that he gets tired of rich women easily, let alone a lowly poor girl like you who could be seen everywhere!"

Hearing this, Rosa's expression changed in an instant.

These words cut deep.

She was nobody.

She was indeed poor.

And it was true that she had no background or status.

But, so what?

She never felt that she lived a worse life than others.

Then, she raised her head and stared at her coldly.

"So what if I'm poor? And so what if you're rich? Right now, you're the one who came to find a lowly poor girl like me to leave that man. So, is being rich really that great?"

Paige was stunned.

"If you're really all that, why don't you try to confront your man rather than getting rid of his mistress? Don't forget that I'm not the only woman in this world. If you can't keep your own husband in check, you won't be able to handle all the women out there!"

She stood up as soon as she finished her words.

"What do you mean?" Paige was slightly angry.

She smiled slightly and said, "You are wasting your time on me. Why don't you try your best to control your man? You should know that your man has power and wealth. I have nothing. I'm poor and I have no power. Did you think I could refuse him if I wanted to?"

"Ha!" Paige started laughing. Her laugh was filled with ridicule.

"Miss Lopez, I didn't expect you to be so shameless. Are you saying that my fiance is pestering you?"

"Miss Baker, the media portrays you as someone well-educated and well-mannered. Now that I've met you today, you're just... a jealous woman!"

Paige was stunned. She watched as Rosa smiled at her mockingly and left expressionless.

It took her a while before coming back to her senses.

"D*mn it! How dare she say that to me?"

As soon as they left the second floor, Rosa's defence mechanism finally cooled down.

She was in pain.

Sadness washed over her.

And she was incredibly ashamed.

If Miss Baker had said everything nicely today, she wouldn't have retaliated like this.

However, she was mocking her.

So she defended herself.

However, she learned one thing from this.

She could never accept that man!

Although she let our her anger just now, she couldn't deny the fact that...

She was... a mistress!

For a moment, sadness dwelled in her eyes. Yet, her heart was in more pain...

"Hmph, why didn't you call me when you're free?"

"Aren't I here with you right now?"

She recognised the voice.

Rosa was stunned.

She stood at the top of the stairs and stared blankly at the people walking towards her.

The two of them hugged each other and walked up with a smile.

They looked upwards and their gazes met.

The air was still for a few seconds.

"Grace..." Rosa frowned and called. Then she looked at the man who was holding her in disbelief. "Uncle... Geoffrey..."

Grace immediately distanced herself from Geoffrey.
