NovelEnglishChapter 142 Chapter 142 Back home, Clyde was on my case, thinking I was planning to leave without saying goodbye. Truth be told, it was clear to everyone that Lisa had her sights set on him.
She just hadn't found the right moment yet, and my leaving was her golden opportunity.
Clyde, still fuming, droveto the airport.
"You better not chat up Vinson, don't you dare hang out with him alone, don't you " "Chill! I'm going for work, not sfancy holiday. If it makes you feel better, I'll flirt with Lisa." I rolled my eyes at him, but that just made him laugh.

With a ton of work waiting for him, he droppedoff and hurried back to the office.
I thought Lisa would take her tto make a move, but as soon as my plane landed, there she was, already cozying up in Clyde's office.
The moment she arrived, Clyde fired up a video chat with me.
Lisa was dressed to kill today, in a silk dress that looked like it might slip off at any moment.
Clyde pretended to work at his computer while Lisa played the doting visitor, now bringing him coffee, now offering fruits.
After a bit of small talk, Clyde got straight to the point.
"Lisa, don't you think this is inappropriate?" He finally snapped when Lisa tried to feed him a slice of peach.
Lisa paused, then ate the peach herself.
"There's nothing inappropriate about it. You've seen it, I'm into you." She sat directly across from him, gazing deeply into his eyes.

"It was love at first sight, you know? The moment I saw you, I knew you were the one." I quietly started recording the screen, not wanting to miss the juicy details.
Clyde coughed awkwardly, "I'm married, Melanie's your cousin." "You didn't marry her for love." Lisa confidently said, "She went abroad with srich man. Would she have married you if you weren't loaded? Clyde, I know why you married her. We're both Crawfords; 1 switching sides isn't really a big deal, is it?"
She fixed her bangs, a look I hadn't seen since my sophomore yearm Clyde had always said Bangs hid my true beauty and had since banned them.
It seemed the Lairds hadn't lost interest in my family over the years of no contact. Perhaps they thought I posed no threat, which is why they ignored me.
She was so sure of herself, but Clyde flatly rejected her proposal.
"Yeah, I married her for revenge, but marry you? What's in it for me? Ta mess around is one thing, but I don't Er marry just anyone." The moment he mentioned "messing around," Lisa's face fell.
