"Mr. Lu, you're finally here," Kitty said in a mincing voice as she approached Charles in a pretentious manner. Kitty actually came here today to take all the opportunities to seduce Charles.
She stood beside Charles and put her arm around him. However, Charles avoided her touch in an unemotional way.
Staring at her arm hung in the air, Kitty felt upset. But she had to pretend to be not affected at all. So she said to Charles in an artificially sweet voice, "I have been waiting for you the whole afternoon."
"Oh, really?" Charles replied sarcastically. Charles cast a glance at Kitty and asked expressionlessly, "Why are you waiting for me?"
Kitty wasn't able to answer Charles' question for a little while. She was dazed. She couldn't believe that Charles would really be so uninterested in her. All the while she believed that she was pretty and she was confident that she would be able to get him.
Well, anyone could agree that Kitty was prettier than the other models. The sexy swimsuit she was wearing today had even accentuated her curvy figure. Even Sheryl was impressed when she saw Kitty's figure. However, Charles didn't have any reactions at all.
Kitty felt more frustrated and couldn't help looking down at her figure. Was the swimsuit not fit to her?
After thinking twice, she realized that the problem was not the swimsuit.
She was wearing a black swimsuit with two shoulder straps crossed at the back and tied around her neck. It actually gave her a very attractive sex appeal.
Additionally, her wavy chestnut hair was tied in a ponytail. Her long and slim legs came under the hem. All these made her more attractive and sexy. Even the waiters couldn't help but glance at her every time they passed by. How could Charles not even cast a single glance at her?
"The truth is," Kitty started to explain after she was able to appease herself, "we have prepared some games for the party and we wished to invite you to play with us."
"Okay," Charles crisply accepted her invitation. He could already see through Kitty's scheme. The reason why he decided to agree was so he could get a chance to fail her plan and embarrass her in the end.
Then Charles turned to Sheryl and said, "Let's eat something." Charles took a bunch of roast meat and handed it to Sheryl, "Taste it."
Sheryl hadn't eaten anything until now because she was busy taking care of Shirley. So when she was given the roast meat in Charles' hand, she couldn't help but suddenly notice her hungriness. She was extremely grateful to Charles' thoughtfulness.
Charles was fully aware how busy Sheryl had been earlier and he knew that she hadn't eaten yet. So he went toward the barbecue grill, rolled up his sleeves, and roasted some meats for her. After he handed the roasted meats to her, he said, "I roasted these meats myself. Do they look delicious?"
"You did? Really?" Sheryl then gave him a suspicious look. A disbelief was reflected on her face. She could still remember that unknown disgusting thing Charles had cooked the last time so she couldn't help but doubt if these meats roasted by him could truly be eaten.
Anyway, they looked slightly delicious.
Sheryl took a bite to taste it and then nodded to Charles. "It is delicious!"
When Charles heard her compliment, he laughed happily like a child who was rewarded by a teacher.
Kitty who was still standing beside Charles witnessed all their sweet interactions. She was overly fuming inside. When she couldn't take it anymore, she faced Charles. She put on a big smile to hide her fury and said, "Mr. Lu, can we start the game now?"
"Sure," Charles replied in agreement. Then he turned to Sheryl, "Sheryl will play with me."
"No, I will not," Sheryl slightly shook her head. She was not interested in any of the games prepared by Kitty at all. She was also aware that Kitty wouldn't want her to play with them. So if she chose to agree with Charles, Kitty would definitely hate her more.
