Trick Him Into Divorce, Then Flee With His Unknow Kid novel Chapter 93

Chapter 93: Chapter 93 The Suite Dispute

Ryan was still surrounded by a crowd of people.

Tall and elegant, he stood at the center of the group, fastening the button of his suit jacket with one hand. His gaze was steady and unflinching as he looked over.

The two buildings stood right next to each other.

The distance between them had never been great.

Especially with the open plaza separating them.

Jordan’s voice carried exceptionally clearly.

Rose hesitated for a moment, not expecting Ryan to have been meeting with the company across the street for so long.

And now, by sheer coincidence, they had run into this situation.

Seeing that Rose wasn’t responding, Jordan stepped closer, seemingly leaving her no room to refuse.

“Even if G.S. has contingency plans, it’ll take an entire cycle to rebuild investor confidence. As an employee of G.S., if you secure my investment, I can guarantee a smooth rise through the ranks.”

He paused before continuing. “Agree to my terms. It’s a deal where you stand to gain tenfold.”

Rose lifted her eyes.

She met Jordan’s determined gaze.

The corners of her lips twitched slightly.

Before she could answer—

A car pulled up not far away.

In the blink of an eye, Ryan’s gaze swept across her.

As though he had merely happened upon a stranger.

As casual and indifferent as a blossom drifting past in the wind.

He stepped directly into the car.

Not the slightest curiosity appeared on his face regarding the answer his soon-to-be ex-wife might give.

The car drove away.

Rose silently weighed the pros and cons.

Jordan stared at the pale pink flush on her cheeks.

“If you agree, come with me to L.A. for a vacation. I can sign the investment contract anytime.”

Rose could naturally see the desire for conquest hidden in Jordan’s eyes.

But she didn’t care whether his intentions were pure.

“Since you’re being so generous, Mr. Dutch, having dinner together isn’t a big deal.”

She looked at him calmly. “What time?”

Jordan immediately understood the implication.

Dinner only.

Nothing more.

If he couldn’t accept that condition, there was no point discussing it further.

Her attitude made him frown involuntarily.

Rose was proving far more difficult than he had anticipated.

But he didn’t mind.

What he wanted was to watch her pride crumble.

Women, in his view, weren’t complicated.

They simply fell into carefully prepared traps.

He wanted to see whether Rose could maintain her principles until the very end.

“See you tomorrow in L.A.”

“Alright.”

After settling the time, Rose turned and walked away.

She didn’t think much of it.

G.S. was facing a funding crisis because of Samantha.

There was no reason to reject the investment Jordan was offering.

Jordan, however, was somewhat surprised.

Rose had rejected him so many times before that he had fully expected another cold refusal.

For a moment, he simply stood there.

Then he looked at her retreating figure and raised an eyebrow.

Just as he had expected.

The fact that Rose had once fallen for Ryan despite his relationship with Samantha seemed, to him, proof that she admired status and power.

There was no way she could resist the conditions he was offering.

If money could move her, winning her over wouldn’t be difficult.

That evening, Rose discussed the matter with Caleb.

Caleb scoffed. “Considering men’s inherent flaws, why exactly would Jordan suddenly be interested in you?”

Hadn’t he looked down on Rose for years?

Rose lowered her gaze to the project report in her hands.

“As you said yourself, men—apart from having little interest in their own wives and girlfriends—seem to have designs on every attractive woman they meet.”

“...”

Caleb paused. “Can you at least exclude me from that statement?”

Rose nodded seriously. “You’re right. Caleb, you’re not even participating in the market.”

“A complete workaholic,” Caleb said with a laugh.

Then his expression softened. “But you don’t need to force yourself into doing something you don’t want to do just for G.S.’s funding. We’ll figure it out eventually.”

Rose smiled. “I’m going to L.A. because I also want to inspect their smart healthcare system. New technologies in the U.S. are usually piloted in places like L.A. before they’re rolled out in New York.”

“L.A. has the newest resources and the most complete infrastructure. I want to understand the market better before we officially launch the project.”

For her, the trip was less about dinner with Jordan and more about market research that happened to include an investment opportunity.

Caleb understood immediately.

Still, he said: “Then I’m going with you.”

“I won’t feel comfortable otherwise.”
