“Can’t you say something nice, kiddo? Don’t you know men have their pride?” Joseph threw Rylee’s
bag into the car. He ran over to open the car door for Rylee, then stroked Rylee’s hair. Joseph smiled
and waved at the Carroll sisters, who stood by the French window when he turned around.
The smile and the action made Andrea’s heart racing. Andrea was blushing, and she started panting.
Joseph hopped into the car and sized Rylee up. He sighed, “Bro, didn’t we agree yesterday that you’re
going to wear skirts today? I’ve told my friends that I’m going to introduce them to a beautiful lady.”
“Do you think I’m an antique item that needed to be exhibited? Don’t use me as a gimmick for your
team.”
Joseph poked Rylee’s forehead and said fiercely, “You’re petty.”
As Joseph drove away, Andrea felt like her heart went away with Joseph too. Andrea felt extremely sad
for some reason. She even wondered why hadn’t Rylee die yet?
Joseph would be hers if Rylee was dead.
Andrea slammed the table, “I wanted to get a killer to murder Rylee.”
Daphne was startled by Andrea’s idea.
However, Caroline sneered, “Don’t worry. Someone’s going to deal with her soon. A wild child trying to
share the inheritance with us? Somebody would eventually get rid of her for us.”
Daphne looked at Caroline in curiosity, “Caroline, who are you talking about?”
Caroline smiled and said, “I don’t think father told Rylee about Deborah Shawn. Behold for a good
show on Saturday.”
…
Joseph stopped the car in front of the luxurious restaurant he used to go to and wanted to pull Rylee
into it. However, two men in a black suit stood by the entrance stopped them, “The restaurant is closed
for today. Go someplace else.”
“What? Closed? I didn’t see any signs.”
Joseph looked around at the exterior and the display cabinet of the restaurant.
Rylee pulled Joseph’s shirt and said indifferently, “I’ve told you not to come to places like this. It’s just
breakfast. We can have breakfast anywhere. The stall in front of our school is good enough. Let’s go.”
At the same time, the earphone of one of the men in a black suit rang. He listened carefully and replied
lowly, “Yes, sir.”
The man in a black suit then turned and smiled at Joseph and Rylee, “You two are allowed to dine in
here. Please.”
“What?” Joseph was confused.
…
What was the matter? The man just said the restaurant was closed, and now they were allowed to go
in?
Rylee didn’t want to go inside, “Hey, Joseph. Let’s not eat here. Let’s go and grab something from the
stall.”
Joseph hesitated. The men in a black suit opened and door and invited them in. Joseph was a lazy
person. He didn’t feel like going to other places anymore. So, Joseph waved at Rylee, then walked into
the restaurant first.
“They ARE closed. Nobody’s here,” Joseph talked to Rylee while looking around at the surrounding.
“Did your eyes grow on your back? Did you say nobody? Didn’t you see a person sitting there?”
Rylee glanced at the corner and got startled.
Two men in a black suit stood behind a man in a far end corner. The handsome man in front was
elegantly enjoying his food.
The man looked so handsome as if he just came out of a painting. It was impossible to ignore his
presence.
That man…was the dangerous Mr. Wheeler!
Mr. Wheeler, whose Bugatti got destroyed by Rylee.
Rylee gasped.
“Damn you, Joseph. I’m going to die someday following you around. You can choose to eat in any
place, but instead, you came here? It was like sending myself into a trap!” Ryle thought.
Rylee rolled her eyes and secretly turned around. Then, she tried to sneak away like a thief.
“Hey, kiddo. What do you want to eat?” Joseph grasped Rylee’s collar and pulled her back.
“What do I want to eat? All I want is to curse you right now!” Rylee scolded Joseph in her heart.
Rylee had missed the best chance of sneaking out. Thanks to Joseph.
Rylee was still trying to cover her face with her collar while peeking in Timothy’s direction.
“Hey hey, kiddo. I thought you said you were starving. Why haven’t you order anything yet? What do
you want to eat?”
Joseph kept talking loudly. Rylee wanted to stuff a piece of cloth into Joseph’s mouth and keep his
mouth shut so much.
“I want this, this and this,” Rylee ordered a bunch of foods from the menu. Forget it. It didn’t matter if
Timothy saw Rylee or not. It didn’t matter what Timothy could probably do to Rylee as well. All Rylee
wanted was to fill her tummy. She was starving.
Then, Rylee became relieved a little. She sat down with her legs crossed and waited for the food to
serve.
Suddenly, Joseph slammed Rylee’s leg, “How many times I’ve told you? You’re a girl, not a guy. Stop
acting so rudely. This is only for guys. Got it?”
Rylee gritted her teeth and acted like she was going to dig Joseph’s eye out, “Don’t be such a sissy.
Leave me alone.”
Rylee was rebellious. She immediately crossed another leg and shook her legs.
Joseph rolled his eyes and muttered, “I don’t think you’ll have any chance of getting married. Why can’t
you act like a lady?”
Rylee stared at the food served in front of them. She wasn’t in the mood of arguing with Joseph at all.
She was starving.
Rylee ate rapidly, and you could feel the tastiness of the food from the way she ate.
On the other hand, Joseph was slowly enjoying his food elegantly.
The picture looked like there was a tender Persian cat and a greedy piglet eating next to each other.
…
Timothy, who sat at the far end corner, can’t help but chuckle. The way Rylee ate was adorable.
Timothy had seen so many girls living under a mask. They even eat like a bird. Timothy had never met
any women who chowed down their food like Rylee.
Armand, who stood behind Timothy, was surprised.
Mr. Wheeler smiled! What a strange phenomenon.
It was more difficult to see Mr. Wheeler’s smile than to see a lunar eclipse.
It seemed like Timothy was looking at his laptop, but he was actually peeking in Rylee’s direction.
Armand didn’t understand how an eighteen years old college girl caught Mr. Wheeler’s attention. Even
Timothy didn’t know why he was attracted to Rylee.
Why did Timothy care so much about Rylee?
Finally, Rylee was full. She ate four times more than Joseph.
Joseph frowned and questioned Rylee harshly out of a sudden, “Tell me honestly. Did you eat last
night?”
Rylee was stunned. Then, she acted normally, “Of course, I did. I’m not an idiot.”
Joseph grasped Rylee’s hand and wouldn’t let go, “Tell me the truth. You have nothing to hide from me.
Did you eat last night? Did the Carroll sisters forbid you from eating? Say something!”
Rylee shook off Joseph’s hand, “I did. I did. You’re long-winded.”
“Why are you starving today if you ate last night? Did you forget that your gallbladder needed extra
care now because you didn’t get to eat properly when you were little? You made me worried…”
Rylee stood up, “Are we going or not? We’re going to be late.”
Before Joseph stood up, two women ran past them rapidly and headed towards Timothy’s direction.
Then, another bunch of people who wore tight suits and held daggers came out of nowhere headed in
Timothy’s direction as well.
It happened in only a few seconds.
Rylee was startled, and she looked over. However, it seemed like Timothy didn’t realize what
happened. He was sitting elegantly and was looking at his laptop.
Damn. Was Mr. Wheeler posing?
“Mr. Wheeler, bad guys are incoming. Be careful!” Rylee shouted in panic.
However, little did Rylee knew, Mr. Wheeler wasn’t exactly a good person for some people.
Joseph pulled Rylee away and hid behind a table.
Armand took the first move. He kicked the nearest hitman away.
Timothy was still sitting on the chair elegantly. All he did was raised his head and glance.
There were only three people on Timothy’s side, but there were seventeen to eighteen hitmen.
Timothy was outnumbered.
Rylee suddenly became worried for Timothy for no reason.
Wouldn’t it be a waste if a handsome man like Timothy got injured and scarred all over?
Four hitmen cornered Armand, and three other hitmen cornered another bodyguard. Then, the rest of
the hitmen rushed and attacked Timothy.
Oh, dear. The handsome Mr. Wheeler who drove a Bugatti was going to die. So many people attacked
him. It’d be lucky if there were anything left of him.
…
Rylee was being compassionate again. She drew a cross on her chest and mumbled, “Bless him to still
have all his body parts intact after this.”
Joseph was terrified. He used his hands to cover Rylee’s eyes so that she wasn’t startled. However,
Rylee kept pushing his hands away and tried to peek.
Timothy was sitting on a chair, but somehow he managed to kick some hitmen away. He looked so
relaxed.
Timothy stood up slowly. He was so tall that he became the eye-catcher of the place.
Then, a surprising scene happened.
Rylee saw Timothy attacked the hitmen rapidly and on spot. Punching, slamming, kicking, and side-
kicking. It was way exciting than an action movie.
After a while, all the hitmen lay on the ground and were disarmed.
However, Timothy was sneering. His shirt looked clean and tidy, and even his shoes looked as shiny as
before.
Was what Rylee saw real?
Rylee widened her eyes.
Mr. Wheeler, who drove a Bugatti, was a horrifying person!
