He had no clue what kind of man could be good enough for Allison.
“Daisy, feel free to hit me up anytime. You’re always welcome to dine at my place.” Brady said.
Daisy let out a chuckle, “With your place being so popular, I’m afraid I won’t find a seat when I drop by.”
“There’s always a spot for you, guaranteed.” Brady said.
Brady left. Daisy turned to Allison, “I think Brady is a decent guy. He busted his ass off to start his own business, and it’s thriving. It hurts to see you turn him down like that.”
Allison gave Daisy a glance, “If you feel sorry for him, you might as well wait for the eldest son of the Boswell family to kick the bucket and then go for Brady.”
Daisy laughed, “Maybe, but I’m afraid Brady won’t be into me.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Allison looked at Daisy a bit annoyed, “You’re really pushing it, Daisy. There’s a whole parade of guys after you, but none of them caught your eye.”
“Now I’m regretting not dating few more guys back in the day. Now I’m stuck marrying a sick guy. Even if the Boswell family’s eldest son bites the dust, I still have to wait three or four years before getting back in the game. Such a waste of my prime years.” Daisy complained while chowing down, “But, the Boswell family did promise me a 6% share, which is worth a few hundred million in cash.”
“Then you’ll be rolling in dough.” Allison jokingly said, “Don’t forget about me when you’re loaded.”
Daisy shot back, “I can bankroll a movie for you. You pick the genre, I’ll foot the bill, and you can be the leading lady.”
Allison chuckled, feeling a warm glow in her heart, “Well, thanks in advance.”
Daisy waved her hand dismissively, “No biggie.”
“By the way, why didn’t you pick up Lucian’s call earlier?” Daisy pointed at the phone and asked, “Did you two have a fight?”
Allison seemed helpless, “I merely told him I was dining here, and he started bragging about how upscale the food court invested by Lindberg Corporation was. I mentioned that the owner is my college friend who used to have a crush on me, and he started blowing up my phone.”
“You’re really living on the edge. Aren’t you afraid Lucian will come after you?” Daisy asked.
“He’s in Britain now.” Allison said.
Ten minutes later, Lucian called again. Daisy picked up, “I’m sorry, Mr. Lindberg, Allison hasn’t returned yet. You can wait for a few minutes, or I’ll put you through as soon as she’s back.”
Lucian was sitting on the couch, his assistant briefing him about the schedule for tomorrow. Seeing the grim look on his boss’s face, he stopped talking.
Lucian said, “I appreciate your help. You can go find Allison and give her the phone. I’ll make sure to thank you when I’m back.”
After hearing that, Daisy shot Allison a glance and mouthed, “He wants me to find you, and he said he’ll thank me.”
Knowing there was no way out, Allison nodded.
Daisy cleared her throat, “I see, I’m actually dining right now. But since Mr. Lindberg insisted, I wouldn’t say no. I know you’re in Britain. Britain is famous for its gems, especially amethyst. You should be in London, right? I heard there’s a gem auction happening in London tomorrow night.”
She stood up, walked a few steps away, and then came back a couple of times. Finally, she knocked on the table and handed the phone to Allison. After all, guys like Lucian were extremely suspicious.
