Reborn Second Chance With The Scheming Tycoon novel Chapter 24

Chapter 24 Six-pack

“How’s the taste?” Liam Taylor asked Amelia Johnson.

Amelia took another bite of the steak. “Way better than the takeout I usually get.”

Liam grinned. “Of course. I brought it from a friend’s restaurant.”

Damien Taylor glanced at her and said, “If you like it, we can just eat at the place next time.”

“Sure.” Amelia smiled. She still owed him a meal anyway.

After finishing up, she turned to Damien. “I’m heading next door to change clothes.”

“I’ll go with you,” Damien said, standing up.

“No need. I feel much better now.” The medicine was surprisingly effective, no wonder it was called a miracle drug.

But Damien didn’t seem to hear her-he just picked her up.

Amelia was startled. “Hey! I can totally walk on my own!”

He didn’t put her down. “This saves time.”

Even though it was just next door, there was still a bit of a walk between the two buildings.

Neither of them said anything at first. Amelia felt the awkward silence and decided to break it with some small talk.

“Am I heavy?”

“Not at all. Easy enough to lift with one hand.”

“Guess you’ve got a six-pack then?”

“Never really counted.”

“Seriously? Who needs to count? Are you bad at math?”

“My math was good in school.”

“Looks like it’s gone downhill then.”

Damien gave her a glance. He almost said, Why don’t you count them for me sometime?

Amelia panicked, thinking he was annoyed. “I was just joking!”

“You scared of me?” Damien raised an eyebrow.

She swallowed nervously. “I mean, who isn’t in the capital?”

“Why’s that?”

“Well, people say you’re… kind of hard to deal with.” She actually meant scary.

That’s not inue.” Damien never thought he was that difficult.

“Yeah, I agree, totally not true, haha. Amelia laughed nervously.
