Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
Flossie got up, turned off the computer, took a long, comfortable stretch, and went to the Red House Restaurant.
“Flossie, over here!”
Mandy was at the restaurant entrance, waving at Flossie from afar.
She managed to achieve financial freedom from one single live stream, so she decided to splurge this time and booked the entire Red House Restaurant for an evening. It could not have been cheap because it was one of the top restaurants in Beach City.
Flossie parked her car and got out.
Today, her curly hair was casually moved to one side and pinned down by a delicate diamond hairpin. She wore a Klein blue chiffon top paired with a pair of white wide leg pants and a pair of silver high heels. She looked tall and confident, exuding endless charm.
“Wow, Flossie, you look so beautiful today. I thought I’m seeing a Victoria’s Secret model! You’re such an eye-candy!”
Mandy did not even dare get close to Flossie due to the powerful aura Flossie was exuding.
“Haha, you brat, you’re such a smooth talker.”
Flossie grabbed Mandy’s arm and asked, “How long has Halston Guajardo been here? Do you think there’s any conspiracy behind his actions?”
“Mr. Guajardo?”
Mandy looked puzzled and shook her head, saying, “The person who came is not Mr. Guajardo.”
“It’s not him?”
‘Yup, it’s not him. It’s a guy who’s every bit as handsome as Mr. Guajardo, and he’s a lot more approachable. However… he feels a bit wild and unruly, so he doesn’t feel very reliable.”
Mandy gave her serious evaluation.
At her age, she had no resistance to good-looking guys.
Among the handsome guys who caught her eye so far, Halston was ranked first, and he had always been first. That had never changed.
That was, until she saw the handsome guy today. She started to waver.
However, Mandy remained rational. She rubbed her chin and carefully analyzed, “I think this guy would make a fun boyfriend, but if we’re talking about marriage, Mr. Guajardo is much more reliable!”
’If you put as much effort into studying as you do analyzing men, your father would be ecstatic.”
Flossie chuckled and pinched Mandy’s chubby face.
After finding out that the person who came was not Halston, her mood was not affected much, but she was even more curious who it was.
The reason why the Red House Restaurant was famous was because it was located at the highest point of Beach City, at the top of the 336 TV Tower. One had to ride in an elevator for 15 minutes to reach the restaurant that was 520 meters above the ground.
Due to its height of 520 meters, it was also known as the “Tower of True Love”. According to legends, only a man and a woman who truly loved each other and understood each other would run into each other here.
The two girls stepped into the panoramic elevator that had a 360 degree transparent glass design. They could get a nice view of the entire city from the elevator.
“Flossie, do you know that this place is called the Tower of True Love? If you miss someone really, really badly, you’ll definitely run into them here. Isn’t it romantic?”
Mandy leaned against the elevator wall and said dreamily while taking in the bustling and gorgeous nighttime scenery.
Flossie naturally did not believe in these legends that were meant to fool children. She said with a smile, “So if I miss a founding father really, really badly, would I encounter an elevator filled with cash?”
“C’mon, Flossie. You’re not romantic at all. If you don’t look forward to a sweet encounter, how would you meet your true love?”
“Let me teach you a life lesson as an older woman, Mandy. To live a good life, true love wouldn’t help much. Money is way more important.
Something like true love will only become a weapon for others to hurt you with.”
Flossie told Mandy seriously. She did not look like she was joking at all.
Although these words sounded too cruel for an 18 year old girl who had just started to develop romantic feelings, the earlier she understood this fact, the less she would get hurt.
Mandy shook her head and said, “Flossie, I don’t agree with what you said. True love is a good medicine for curing pain. Why would it cause pain?
You’re just scared of love now because you were hurt by it once. You look brave and carefree, but you’re actually timid and cowardly because you dare not love again.”
“Uhh…”
Flossie was speechless.
‘Do all the kids nowadays mature this early?’ she thought.
The elevator finally reached the top floor.
The restaurant was decorated elegantly with fresh flowers everywhere. A person was playing the violin. The atmosphere was beautiful and romantic.
“Flossie, the top donor is waiting for you. This candlelight dinner is for the two of you, so I won’t stay to be the third wheel. I’m going home.”
After saying that, Mandy took the elevator down and left the restaurant.
“Welcome, our only female guest for the evening. This way, please.”
The waiter bowed 90 degrees and led Flossie into the restaurant.
The man standing in front of the French window had a tall, straight figure. He was dressed in an elegant black casual suit that had good cutting, complementing his excellent figure nicely. His regal temperament gave him the air of a king that came out of a medieval castle.
Anyone would be captivated by his height and his aura. No wonder Mandy nearly fell for him.
Flossie subconsciously quickened her pace. She walked over to stand behind the man and said, ’Hi.”
The man slowly turned around. His perfect, handsome face could only be described as a masterpiece of nature. There was currently a mischievous grin on it. “Long time no see, my goddess.”
“Ugh!”
Flossie almost fell down.
In those short few steps, she had made countless guesses about the man’s identity – she had even guessed that he might be Xavier – but she would never have guessed that it was him!
‘Why do I feel like you look a bit disappointed, Bonnie?”
Haze chuckled and joked calmly.
For four years, he had tried every method possible to trace Flossie’s whereabouts, but his efforts were in vain.
He kept decrypting the protection she set up, and she kept using more sophisticated techniques to set up a new protection. It was like a game of cat and mouse. Every attack made his blood boil with excitement.
So when he learned that Flossie was back, he got really excited. He immediately got into a bidding war with Halston during the live stream and ultimately scammed Halston of 4 million dollars while he himself reaped the benefits.
“Haze, what have you been through the last few years? You look so different now.”
Flossie was still in shock.
