Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
“If you’re really short of money, I can get you a job once the ownership of the law firm is transferred to me.”
She rolled up the window and sped off without waiting for his answer, leaving Elon with exhaust fumes and cursing at the distant shadow of her car.
“What the hell?! You’re just an abandoned woman! Get off your high horse!”
‘But the Guajardos shouldn’t be so stingy that they didn’t give her a single dime, right?’
Rubbing his chin, Elon had an idea…
Flossie returned home after leaving the graveyard. Just as she entered the door, she received a phone call from an unknown number.
It was Jessanna.
However, her tome was extremely polite and gentle, unlike her usual domineering tone when facing Flossie.
“I am sorry to disturb you, Miss Ellsworth. I’ve been cleaning the room recently and found some of your personal belongings. Do you have time to come and get them tonight?”
‘Was Jessanna always so kind?’ Flossie thought, obviously skeptical about it.
What was she up to this time?
Despite that, Flossie did not hesitate and replied calmly, “Sure, I’ll drop by and get them later.”
She left in haste last time, leaving some important belongings behind. Even if Jessanna did not call her, she would still find time to return to the villa to pick them up.
At around eight in the evening, Flossie got a cab and went straight to the Guajardos’ villa. The servants were somewhat distant because the previous mistress was visiting. They did not even bother to greet her.
What snobs!
It did not matter to Flossie. She simply walked into the villa through the big door. The place where she had been staying for four years was still the same as when she left. It was just a pity that the people had changed, and her heart inevitably felt sorrow.
‘Bah! How unlucky I was to have wasted four years of youth in this damn place!’
The luxurious parlor was extraordinarily lively. Not only that the new mistress of this villa, Jessanna, was here, but Charlotte and her boyfriend, Micah, were also there.
As soon as she saw Flossie, Jessanna immediately took on the role of the hostess and went forward to greet her warmly.
“Miss Ellsworth, you came. We were just talking about you!”
Flossie asked with an indifferent look, “Where are my things?”
Flossie was here to retrieve her things, so she would leave as soon as she got them. She had no time to be playing around with her.
“They’re in your old room. I’ve asked the servants to pack them up so you can take them away whenever you want.”
“Thanks.”
When Flossie headed to the revolving staircase, Jessanna took her arm and said warmly, “Since you are already here, why don’t you stay for dinner?”
“Dinner?”
Flossie turned her bright eyes on Jessanna, and they suddenly unveiled a hint of playfulness. “I am rather curious. When did my relationship with you become so close, Miss Ximenez?”
Her gaze was so sharp that Jessanna felt intimidated and instinctively avoided it.
Charlotte came forward and sneered. “How petty of you to chicken out of a meal. It’s no wonder my cousin doesn’t want you!”
Flossie raised her eyebrows, amused. She found these two interesting, one playing nice and another nasty. What were they trying to achieve by acting so hard?
“Okay. It just so happens that I’m a little hungry.”
She decided to go along with them. She wanted to see what they could come up with.
A feast was served, and there was even a bottle of Lafite ’82 on the table.
Flossie’s cheeks started to burn after she drank the wine Jessanna poured for her. With one hand propping her forehead and her eyes turning hazy and watery, she was unmistakably drunk.
“I feel so dizzy, and why is it so hot…”
Jessanna and Charlotte’s eyes lit up when they heard this, and they exchanged glances. (1)
Charlotte hurriedly said to Micah, “She’s done eating. Take her upstairs and help her carry her things down…”
At the sight of the drunken Flossie, Micah swallowed heavily and helped her up. “Don’t worry. I will take good care of her!”
“It’s your doomsday today, bitch! After taking that stuff, even a saint will become a slut. She won’t be able to escape this time, not even if she has wings!”
Eyes glittering with a malicious light, Charlotte urged Jessanna excitedly, “Jess, call my cousin. Doesn’t this slut like to seduce men? Let’s show him her true colors!”
Putting on the mask of concern, Jessanna said, “Isn’t that a bad idea? She’s still your cousin’s wife, after all.”
Charlotte took Jessanna’s arm and persuaded her righteously, “Jess, you’re just too kind-hearted. Think about how this woman trampled you at the charity banquet. Don’t you want to give her some payback? Didn’t you see how lustful she was acting just now? I’m so generous that I even lent her my boyfriend to help her out! She’ll have to thank me later! Don’t worry. I’ll take care of it if anything happens! It won’t be your fault!”
“You’re so kind to me, Charlotte!”
Though Jessanna looked touched, she was laughing inwardly at Charlotte’s stupidity. The stupid girl didn’t even know she was being used, yet she was still working herself to the bone for Jessanna!
A short while later, Halston returned to the villa. A chilling aura exuded from his tall figure, and he asked sternly,” Where is she?”
Not seeing Flossie after surveying the spacious parlor, his brows knitted tightly together.
”
Jessanna approached him with an innocent look and stammered, “Halston, Miss Ellsworth is… she’s with Micah…’ Charlotte gave him an aggrieved look and lamented, “Halston, your demure and virtuous wife took advantage of our absence to seduce my boyfriend and get him into her bed!”
Right after that, she hurriedly led Halston upstairs. Halston didn’t say a word, his lips pursed and his gaze cold.
They arrived at Flossie’s old bedroom, only to find that the door was tightly closed, and sultry sounds were coming from inside.
Jessanna tried to open the door but found that it was locked.
“Halston, it’s locked. I can’t open it…”
Halston’s face turned red as the simmering rage under his skin finally ignited into a burning fire.
“Get out of the way!”
The next second, he kicked the door open with a loud bang, but the scene inside made them freeze.
They saw that Micah, whose gaze was unfocused, was lying on the floor, hugging a life-size teddy bear and acting lewdly. (1
“Hey, hottie…”
On the other hand, Flossie was sitting leisurely on the couch with her legs crossed. She was casually holding her phone with one hand, filming the whole thing, and eating popcorn with her other hand. She didn’t seem to be drunk like how she acted just now!
“Hey, you came. Come on here quick! Watch this live performance. It’s so entertaining!” Flossie said as she beckoned. the three at the door enthusiastically.
“W-what’s going on here?”
Jessanna’s face turned gloomy. This was not what she wanted at all!
Flossie was definitely more difficult to deal with than what others had said!
On the other hand, Charlotte exploded and rushed toward Flossie fiercely, trying to grab the cell phone in her hand as she screamed, “What have you done to my boyfriend, you bitch?! Why is he like this?!”
Flossie dodged her easily, and Charlotte took a bad tumble, making herself look somewhat awkward.
“Shouldn’t you know better why he’s like this?” Flossie replied, casting a condescending look at Charlotte. The former’s gaze was disdainful as if looking at an insignificant ant.
‘Hah, I thought these people would devise some great tricks to deal with her… And this is it? Just the drug?’
