Chapter2
What a joke.
That kind of line used to be something the Black Viper Syndicate said to others.
And now it was being thrown in my face?
I chuckled coldly and narrowed my eyes.
“You really think you’re somebody just because you’re hiding behind Charles Whitmore? I bet he wouldn’t say something
that stupid. So who the hell are you?”
“What the fuck?!”
“Yes, I mean you’re stupid.”
“You,bitch!”
She raised her hand to slap me, but I dodged, and she fell flat on the floor.
“Wow, Bianca. One harsh sentence and you go full performance mode with a faceplant? Thanks for the commitment.”
She scrambled up and pointed at me, seething. “You’ll regret this!”
I said flatly. “If you don’t clean that mouth, I might just help you do it.”
My dad had made sure I was trained by some of the best martial arts instructors in the country.
Women like Bianca? I could take three of her with one hand.
She faltered under my glare and fell quiet.
More and more people had gathered around to gawk.
I wasn’t interested in putting on a show for strangers.
I picked up my card from the ground, bought the bag, and turned to leave.
But Bianca blocked me again.
That was her last chance.
I raised my foot, fully intending to kick her out of my way.
“Stop!”
A deep male voice rang out behind me.
Bianca instantly put on a pitiful face and ran over.
“Mr. Whitmore, thank God you’re here. She’s been bullying me this whole time…”

I turned around,and yeah, okay. I understood why my dad said I’d like this guy.
Broad shoulders, long legs, sharp jawline.
He looked like a damn hunk.
Fine. I’d give him one more chance. For the face.
I offered him a pleasant smile. “Mr. Whitmore? I’m Evelyn Black,your arranged date today. I’m sure your father
mentioned me?”
Charles Whitmore’s dad used to be a nobody under my father’s command.
It was only because my dad saw potential in his business mind that the Whitmore family got where they are now.
Charles gave me a once–over, top to bottom, and sneered.
Twenty–eight and still a virgin? Sorry, not my type.”
His words hit like a slap.
So being twenty–eight automatically made me old?
I had standards, dignity, self–control.
And this was what I got?
“Did you eat shit before you came here? Or you’re born with a filthy mouth? What about your basic manners?”
