NovelEnglish"Like I said, he's just a broke, lowly bodyguard! How could he be the CEO of Barrett Group? No one will believe you no matter how you put it! "Mia, there's still tto regret this. I'll consider sparing the Lanes as long as you servewell tonight," Lewis said, his tone dripping with lust.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMia clenched her fists instantly. She itched to punch Lewis in his face, and she was on the verge of cursing him to his end. Seeing how the Bowens mocked her, Timothy immediately snarled, "I'll call Caleb and have him chere right away." Timothy had no interest in intimidating others to assert himself. In Bern City, he didn't have to stoop so low to prove his identity. Yet, little did he expect people to mistake him as a poor bodyguard when he hid his identity in Nord City. All he wanted was to get close to Mia and his child by keeping a low profile.
He took his phone out and called Caleb promptly. His call was answered in a heartbeat.
"What's up, Tim? How did things go?" Caleb offered to spend twith Ginger upstairs so Timothy could talk to Mia in private.
"Cdownstairs now," Timothy said calmly. Without any further explanation, he hung up swiftly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLewis sneered. "Are you trying to deceive us by saying that you've just called Caleb?" "Yeah," Timothy replied nonchalantly.
"His schedule is confidential, and not everyone has access to his personal contact. Even I can only reach him through his work number, and his secretary is in charge of handling his phone. Who would believe you if you claim that Mr. Gomez answered your call?" "Yeah, even Lewis could only contact him through his work number. What makes you think that you can reach his personal number?" Connie chimed in.
"I was indeed talking to him earlier," Timothy snapped.
Mia raised an eyebrow. "Just because you're incapable of doing it doesn't mean that others can't." "Con, Mia. Considering his convincing act, I admit that he's a pretty good actor. Didn't yo@start a film company recently? Why don't you make him an actor instead? He might even make it big in the industry. Why pretend to be the CEO of Barrett Group?" Lewis mocked. Bursting into a fit of laughter, Connie added, "How hilarious! He claimed that he'd just called Mr. Gomez, acting like he'd just asked him to cdown immediately. A truly convincing act, indeed! "Mr. Gomez is the second powerhouse in Bern City, having his wealth spread all around the globe. He's not even inferior to the Lanes. How could your bodyguard just order him around?" Lewis stared at Mia. "You're pretty, but you're also divorced with kids. Sure, you might've met Mr. Gomez and talked to him a few times before, but do you really think he'll do you a favor? Stop daydreaming, Mia." Mia met his eyes and said, "The truth will be unveiled once Caleb comes down. You'll find out whether it's an act and whether I'm daydreaming or not." "Alright, I'm looking forward to it. Will Mr. Gomez really show up later? However, shouldn't you pay a price if your bodyguard is lying?" Lewis peered at her lecherously.
"You'll find out who should pay a price once Caleb is here," Mia replied.
