Chapter 38 – A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love

Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love

Halston did not even care about her, so how could he remember the death anniversary of her parents and bother to send flowers to pay respects?

It was a love me, love my dog kind of thing. What was she expecting?

She looked out the car window, hoping to get home as soon as possible.

However, she immediately discovered that the route he took was not right.

“This was not the way back to Sunup Residence. Where are you going?”

Halston did not answer. His eyes were focused in front. “You’ll know when you get there.”

She furrowed her brows and said, “Stop the car. I’m getting off.”

If it were not for the difficulty of getting a cab in that area and he so happened to live in the same neighborhood as her, she would not have considered getting into the car!

But now, the road was unfamiliar and she did not dare to get into a stranger’s car.

“Sit tight!”

He pressed the lock button and stepped on the gas pedal harder, and the car picked up speed immediately, overtaking several cars in a row.

“What are you doing? Don’t drag me with you if you want to die. Slow down!”

Flossie was so scared that her back was pressed against the seat and her fingers were gripping the armrest.

It was not that she was a coward. She had learned car racing back then and experienced a higher speed than this. It was just that she was worried about the babies in her belly being scared.

“We are almost there. Don’t worry. I’m not going to sell you!”

Halston’s handsome face was expressionless when he continued to speed up.

It took about ten minutes for the car to pull up at Paris La Nuit Club.

Flossie knew about this club. It was very high class and had a strict membership system. Those who were members were either the rich or the aristocrats of Beach City.

This was weird. Why would this man bring her to such a place all of a sudden?

“Get out of the car.”

Halston parked the car and unlocked the passenger door.

Flossie, seeing that she was free, hurriedly opened the door to run away.

But Halston grabbed her wrist with his big palm and said in an absolutely assertive tone, “You have to accompany me to this meeting today.”

“We are in the middle of a divorce. Why should I play along with you? What’s in it for me?”

Flossie, who was no longer her past self who was at his beck and call, said proudly, “My appearance fee is very high, you know?”

“One hundred thousand per minute.”

“Deal!”

She replied immediately with a bright smile, “You are indeed generous, Mr. Guajardo!”

Thinking about her past self, she really found that she was very silly to be willing to be his puppet who was ready to accompany him to any occasion at any time without getting anything in compensation.

Even reckoning made long friends, what’s more with husbands and wives!

The two were led by the waiter to the room on the highest floor of the club called the “Night

Banquet.”

This room was the classiest in the entire club and was only used to receive their most

Sunguished members.

Flossie heard cheerful voices and laughter from afar.

The moment Halston entered the room, he suddenly pressed the pause button, and all the voices stopped awkwardly.

A tall, handsome man rushed over, his eyes widening. “Holy sh*t, Halston, am I dreaming? Are you really here?”

The one speaking was a childhood friend of Halston’s, called Xavier.

When Xavier saw Flossie who was standing next to him, he let out an even more exaggerated yell. “Oh my god, come and see this. Not only did Halston come, but he also brought his wife with him. Will wonders never cease? What a rare occasion!”

Halston’s attractive face remained unfazed as he strode into the room and said in a meaningful tone, “Since I received the invitation, I naturally had to come.”

Flossie was still confused about the situation, so she acted like a good and dignified wife and followed the man obediently. Since she had received a fee of a hundred thousand dollars per minute, she naturally had to play her role as his puppet well.

The interior of the room was extravagantly luxurious. It was spacious and lavish, with lights glimmering and glinting, as if they had entered a palace.

A few couples were seated on the couch. She could tell from their appearances that they were children of the rich. The ones who stood out the most were the couple sitting in the middle.

The man was charming, with rimless glasses resting on his high nose bridge. He looked genteel and elegant, but his pair of narrow, deep eyes seemed to be able to control everything.

Such aura must come from a family with a rich and powerful background.

For instance, the silver watch on his wrist was a limited edition Rolex. It was the only one in the world, worth more than ten million!

The woman who was intimately next to him also looked unique. Her near-perfect face was not only beautiful but sophisticated. She had a look that was rare even among the ladies of the high society.

In short, they were clearly a couple and were a good match for each other when sitting together.

They were equally stunned when Halston came in.

“Halston, you…”

The woman stood up directly. Her eyes were wide open, flowing with love as if she had a lot of things to say.

the contrary, the man was calmer and more relaxed. He said gently, “You are finally not angry and are willing to come.”

Halston put his hands into his pockets and looked at the two condescendingly. His deep voice was mixed with a hint of helplessness as he smiled faintly and said, “Why else would it be?”

Flossie’s eyes shuttled back and forth between them, and then she immediately came to a conclusion, “The relationship of these three is not simple. There must be something fishy going on here!’

The atmosphere within the room was inexplicably awkward. Everyone was tensed and cautious, no one dared to say a word.

Xavier took two glasses of wine and walked airily to Halston and the man on the sofa to give them each a glass of wine, and said cheerfully, “Let’s not talk about it. It’s been four years and now that the golden trio is finally reunited, so we must drink till we drop! I am the youngest here and I was worried for the two of you so much, my bros, so I shall be the one who gives the first toast!”

The man on the couch stood up and clinked Halston’s and Xavier’s glasses with his wine glass, and sighed rather emotionally, “Indeed, it’s been four years, and we are finally reunited!” And he tilted his head and emptied his glass.

Then, his attention fell on Flossie beside Halston and he said gently, “So, you are the girl that Halston was forced to marry four years ago, and you are… Flossie?”

“Yes, I am. Nice to meet you.”

Flossie said gently, and smiled without showing her teeth.

It was what she had to do for the sake of the money she would make per minute, so she had to set up the best stage for the high and mighty Mr. Guajardo.

“Hello, I am Christopher Jacobs. I’m very sorry for not attending your wedding four years ago. As an apology, I’ll drink three shots later.”

“It’s okay, Christopher. Halston has been telling me about you for the past few years, saying that you’re great and that he misses you and has wanted to get together with you for a long time.”

Halston was dumbfounded.

‘Can you not overdo it? When did I ever mention Christopher in front of you?’
