In the cafe opposite...
Richard ordered tea for Amanda and helped her sit down.
Mandy looked at her coldly feeling uncomfortable.
Just then Richard's phone rung. He took it out to look at the caller. He gave Mandy a warning gaze before he excused himself to answer the call.
Mandy did not notice that gaze as she was busy seizing up Amanda.
"Did you know that Richard and I are engaged?" Mandy asked Amanda the moment Richard left.
Amanda looked at her puzzled.
When was her business to know what people Richard is engaged to. They are not even together so she definitely knows nothing about him.
"It seems like he does trust you enough. Maybe you are just a plaything for him to pass time." Mandy smacked sarcastically.
"I want you to name your price and stay away from Richard from now onwards." Mandy said.
"I don't understand what miss is talking about." Amanda feigned ignorance.
This woman was now getting on her nerve.
"Don't play dumb with me woman. I know you are only after Richard's money. With your status, his father will never allow you to marry into the Howell family."
Amanda hooked her lips. Which eyes of this woman saw that she was together with Richard only wanted to squander his money.
"Excuse me miss. Which eyes of you saw that I'm together with Richard?" Amanda asked.
She was long fed up with this woman. She has been treating her politely because of Richard but now she was getting on her nerve.
"Are you not together. Then why is he treating you so gently. I have never seen Richard treat anyone with such gentleness." Mandy said. Not at all believing Amanda.
"I told you there is nothing between me and Richard. If you want to believe whatever you think is right, then go ahead and entertain yourself." Amanda said. She was done playing polite.
"Does Richard know that you don't have any manners and you can just talk to people whoever you want?" Mandy asked.
"That is none of your concern."
"Tell me miss, whatever your name is. You said that Richard is your fiancee right?" Amanda asked.
"You don't even know my name and dare to mess with me?" Mandy asked angrily. Who did not know her name and status in city A. No wonder this girl was daring enough to hook up with Richard.
"Do I have to know you? Who are you anyway? Are you the mayor or the president of United States?" Amanda asked sarcastically.
"You...." Mandy was mad that her face turned red.
"Now can you answer my question?" Amanda continued.
"What question?" Before Mandy answered, Richard interjected with a deep voice.
Amanda smiled at him lightly.
"This lady here is saying that she is your fiancee I just wanted some clarification. After all she thinks that I'm your girlfriend and she even wants to pay me so that I can stay away from you." Amanda said, without hiding anything.
Mandy looked at her with astonishment. Was there something wrong with her brains.
"Is that so...?" Richard looked at Mandy coldly.
"I....." Mandy tried to explain herself but was cut off by Richard.
"I thought that I was clear before. But since you seem to have forgotten I don't mind repeating it once more."
