From her tone, Willy knew who she was referring to. He unconsciously frowned and said,

"Cloud, since when have you learned to keep others guessing? If you want to say it, then say it. If you don't want to say it, then forget it! I don't have the habit of inquiring about other people's secrets."

He was curious about it, but at the same time, he was repulsed by her behavior.

Seeing that he seemed like he was about to hang up the phone, Cloud still eagerly told him the whole story.

"Willy, don't be too serious about that woman. She doesn't take you seriously at all. I know it's not good for me to talk behind her back, but I heard it personally. I don't want you to get hurt. I also want to tell you the truth at the risk of making you feel disgusted. I swear what I said is the truth. There is no lie. If you don't believe me, I can take you to see it."

As soon as she said that, Cloud also suddenly realized that she seemed to have made a mistake. She should not have reported this to him, but directly take him to see the truth instead. The effect would've been very sensational.

Cloud slightly clenched her fists and closed her eyes. "D*mn it, she's in a hurry! Fortunately, she hasn't said the exact time and location!"

"I see! If there's nothing else, I'm hanging up!"

"You don't believe me?"

"No! You may have taken things out of context..."

How could he believe her? He didn't have to investigate the relationship between Tevye and the Luther family. He knew something about the dinner party that day. She said she sold him to Isla for a few hundred thousand. How could it be possible? The mansion she lived in cost way more than that. Besides, she didn't seem to be short of money!

What's more, unless he was brainless, only fools would sell a diamond in return for some rocks!

It didn't make sense.

Therefore, Willy simply thought that the two of them were talking about something else and that Cloud must have heard it wrongly.

After that, Willy no longer took anything Cloud was about to say subsequently seriously. Cloud tried hard to explain but she did not realize that Willy did not believe her because she had forgotten to mention that Lauren and Isla were actually betting on him. She wanted Willy to witness the two of them at the dinner table and sign the contract, to prove that what she said was true. However, she did not grasp the most crucial point of this matter. She did not mention that it was a bet. Therefore, she was hung up on in the end.

In the evening, Willy took Lauren out with him for a candlelit dinner together.

After the meal, he ordered a small cake for her. Willy even played with her soft hands for a while.

"I heard that you want to sell me? How much am I worth?"

Lauren paused with the fork in her mouth. Her first reaction was that she did not mishear him and she was worried that it was true. It was just that she did not expect that he would actually directly ask her. Seeing the smile in his eyes, she also raised her red lips. "Mr. Bowles, you are young and handsome, and you know how to make money. You're probably worth at least a few billion. If I wanted to sell you, then does that mean you are already mine? Even if I wanted to sell you, can anyone afford it?" Lauren giggled and looked straight into his eyes. "You heard? I don't know who you heard it from.

Does she want to buy you?"

Lauren moved her little face forward. Willy raised his hand and pinched her cheek. He said in a good mood, "Do you really want to sell me? You little fool! Well, I dare you! I dreamt about it. The man in my dream told me!" "Hee hee."

If he didn't say it, Lauren wouldn't say it out loud. She served a tiny bite of cake to his lips and fed him sweetly. At this moment, she still felt warm. But she didn't know why her heart couldn't control the faint pain when she looked at him with deep affection! That night, Willy held her in his arms for a long time before he reluctantly sent her home.

The relationship between them gradually stabilized, and the

wedding was on the agenda. Everything seemed to develop in the most perfect direction. In the next few days, Willy's heart was occupied by a faint uneasiness.

One day, after reading the document in his hand three times, his head was still empty and he couldn't write. Getting up, he went to the wine glass on the side. As he poured a glass of red wine, the office door was pushed open after a soft knock.

"Do you have something on your mind?"

Drinking in broad daylight?

"Do you want some?"

Willy took out another glass and shook his head. He went forward and Lexx took the glass from his hand and put it on the table.

"The marketing department will hold a meeting soon! Come back and drink later!"

If he went on like this, he'll scare the employees!

"It's just a regular meeting. You can attend on my behalf!" Willy raised his glass and drank it.

Lexx wanted to ask him what was on his mind, but Willy's phone rang. It was Cloud who called. This time, Willy did not pick up and hung up.

Then, the messages on the screen flashed away.

Although he didn't see the content clearly, he saw Willy's action of taking the wine. Lexx basically guessed it.

"You're stressing over a woman that you don't even care about?"

"It's not her!"

Willy glanced at his phone and took a deep breath.

"I don't know where she heard from, but recently, she's been saying bad things about Tevye. She said that she's using me and that she's not sincere. She's been calling and texting me. Sometimes we'd meet for a short while. She's always saying the same thing..."

He had already booked a hotel, a ring, and everything else. He even chose a date and wanted to propose to her. But these two days, he inexplicably began to get annoyed.

"So, there must be a reason behind all this. Otherwise, you wouldn't be so hesitant."

"I don't believe it! But as the days pass, I am more afraid. I am afraid that things will repeat themselves! I don't know if I am too nervous or too tired. I always feel that something will happen!" Would he still lose her?

No!

He wasn't certain about it!

Willy shook his head and did not know how to hide his annoyance.

Lexx went forward and held his shoulder. He patted it hard and said, "Willy, this time is different! At least this time, we have family and evidence to follow!"

Moreover, he would not lose too much face if there were not as many guests as before. However, he couldn't help but worry that if what he said was true, would he still be able to withstand it this time?

In the past few years, he ways just

getting through the days. All he knew was working overtime,

working overtime, and more working overtime. Other than that, he would drink and wallow in sadness. Seeing that he could abandon his work and bring Tutu to go to see a doctor in the rain, he knew how much he was nervous and cared about the past.

This Tevye was really mysterious. No matter who she was, at least her appearance made Willy feel alive again. He had not seen him smile for the past few years.
