Rylee puffed out her cheeks, “You’re eight years older than me, and that makes you an elder!”
“Only eight years older is not considered an elder.”
“It is!”
Timothy said forcefully, “Anyway, I’m not your elder.”
Rylee was speechless.
She couldn’t imagine that a triad leader could be so capricious.
Wait a minute; it seemed she was straying from the topic. She should pursue his rude behaviour!
Armand sat in front, biting his lips and hardly managed to hold his laughter back.
The boss had such a side!
After years of following the boss, he never smiled nor said anything, not to mention joking and so on. He didn’t expect that the boss would reveal such a rare side in front of Rylee.
The boss had such a lovely side also.
Timothy suddenly asked, “That Joseph…”
“Oh? What’s wrong with Joseph?” Rylee thought that Joseph’s infatuation had moved Timothy and was ready to take Joseph as his disciple.
Rylee turned her face to look at Timothy, who was beside her.
Timothy looked down on the little girl and asked, “Is Joseph your boyfriend?”
“What? No way!” Rylee subconsciously exclaimed, “How can that idiot be my boyfriend? Come on, if I must have a boyfriend, I’ll find one that is more reliable. As for Joseph, it’s lucky not to be pissed off by him.”
…
Timothy looked into Rylee’s eyes, “He is so close to you. How come he is not your boyfriend?”
Rylee didn’t even notice the envious tone of Mr. Wheeler’s words.
“Everybody has friends! Why can’t I have a best friend then? Joseph is just my best friend. That’s all! Don’t give me any nonsense. He’s a playboy and if his girlfriends hear you say that, they’ll probably rip me off.”
Timothy smiled faintly, reached out to pinch Rylee’s chin in a very ambiguous manner, “That’s good.”
Rylee moved her face to the side in disgust and glared at Timothy, “What do you mean? Could it be that you like me?”
Rylee had an arrogant look.
Timothy turned his eyes away and said coldly, “Do you think that’s possible?”
Rylee thought about it carefully and nodded knowingly, “No, there won’t be such thing. Mr. Wheeler, I knew you’d make fun of me. Are you trying to make me sick so that I can’t eat at lunch?”
Timothy didn’t say anything, just looked out of the window at the scenery.
This was her debtor!
She owed him a debt of four hundred thousand dollars!
It seemed silly not to butter him up.
So, Rylee leaned over, with her hand unconsciously resting on Timothy’s lap, looking out of the window too, “What are you looking at? What’s so beautiful? I want to have a look too.”
Timothy narrowed his eyes and looked down slightly to survey her hand on his lap.
“Huh? What’s vibrating?” Rylee’s palm moved back and forth across Timothy’s leg.
It felt like something had been vibrating here just now.
Timothy suddenly changed his face, took a deep breath and grabbed her little hand, “Don’t move around…”
What the hell! What was she doing just now? Her hand just rubbed back and forth on his leg like that…
“Mr. Wheeler, what’s vibrating here? Is it a phone?”
Timothy let out a sigh and pulled out his mobile phone. Rylee widened her eyes to look at it and exclaimed, “Gosh, you have forty-three missed calls!”
Timothy frowned slightly, pushed Rylee’s face a little further away and tapped on the phone to see.
It was true that wealthy triad leaders were not that easy to please. He was already disgusted with her, giving her the cold shoulder.
They arrived at a very upscale restaurant. The environment was secluded and sparsely populated.
Rylee thought secretly, ‘Good for the rich, even the place where they come to eat is so different.’
‘Had they reserved the whole place? Why isn’t there other guests around?’
“Huh? Is this bird a starling?” Upon entering, Rylee saw a bird, and she happily moved the cage to tease the bird inside, “Hey, what’s your name? Do you speak human? Say hello to me!”
Timothy stood behind Rylee and chuckled.
However, the starling was bullish and only gave Rylee a lazy look without saying a word.
“Hey, so you’re a mute bird and can’t even speak. What for keeping you inside the cage. Stupid bird.”
Armand was puzzled and wanted to stop Rylee several times but was halted by Timothy’s gaze.
Apparently, Timothy didn’t want to bother Rylee.
The bird in the cage got a bit angry, glaring at Rylee but still not squealing.
…
Rylee swung the birdcage back and forth, “Say something! Say something to me! Hurry up!”
The poor starling could barely stand up in the cage, fluttering its wings and looking pathetically at Timothy behind Rylee.
Timothy just ignored it and let the girl make a scourge.
Eventually, the starling had no choice but to open its mouth and say, “Hello! Hello!”
Only then did Rylee smile and stop shaking the cage, “That’s good. Only good birds get millet to eat.”
Rylee pouted and walked away while the bird was cowering in fear by the nest.
The hotel manager said to Armand behind him with wide eyes, “Armand! Who’s that having the guts to bully the boss’s bird?”
This was a bird raised by Timothy, who was usually so aggressive that it would not be happy if the bird keeper gave it a bad meal. The last time an unlucky person accidentally touched the cage slightly, the boss was angry and had someone beat up that guy.
Today… the bird was being bullied, and the boss was just stood by.
Perhaps that spoiled bird was crying in its nest now.
Armand laughed, “Remember this girl, be careful and don’t offend her.”
