Filed to story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
Halston pried his eyes away and walked back into the room. He said coldly, “If she falls for him that easily, it only proves that our love isn’t strong enough.”
Jovan finally managed to persuade Flossie to return to the car.
He closed the windows and turned on the air-heating system.
“Here you go. Dry your hair first.”
He pulled out a towel from the driver’s seat and gave it to Flossie who was sitting in the back row. He then found another towel for himself which he used to wipe his wet hair and clothes.
Flossie’s dress was very thin. Now that she was wet, it stuck to her skin and outlined her seductive curves. She looked very sexy.
When she was wiping her body, she felt a bit awkward. She was too embarrassed to lift her clothes and wipe inside.
“Don’t worry, I can’t see anything. I’m blind.”
While saying that, Jovan flicked the interior rearview mirror close and raised his hands.
Seeing the man’s back facing her and the interior rearview mirror closed, Flossie’s finally felt less awkward. She started to wipe her body more carefully.
Meanwhile, Jovan had no such concern. He took off his shirt and threw it onto the passenger seat, generously showing Flossie his muscular body.
To be honest, his body was just as impressive as Halston’s!
*Ahem!*
Flossie quickly removed her gaze and chastised herself for looking.
“Haha, Flossie, you’re already the mother of two children. Why are you still so shy? Looks like sex with Halston must have been very conservative!”
“Shut up!”
Flossie gave the man a sharp punch on the back and warned him, “Just because I got into your car doesn’t mean you can make lewd jokes with me. If you keep being so rude, get out of the car!”
“My bad. As you’re well aware, my mouth is all I have. I’ll try to control myself.”
Getting hit by Flossie made Jovan very happy. He cherished this moment alone with Flossie. He did not want it to end that quickly.
The air inside the car was very warm. The two of them were no longer damp. They gradually relaxed.
Jovan turned on the car stereo, filling the interior of the car with lively music. It happened to be a soft rock song, which was a genre that they both liked. The song was Michael Bolton’s “How Am I Supposed To Live Without You”.
? Tell me how am I supposed to live without you~ Now that I’ve been lovin’ you so long… ?
The song’s rhythm complemented the raindrops outside the window. As a former lead singer of a band, Flossie was still quite sensitive to music. She immediately nodded along to the dense guitar and drum beats.
Jovan smiled unconsciously. “Now that’s the Flossie Ellsworth I know. Carefree and unrestrained. There’s no need to bawl your eyes out for an unfaithful man.”
Flossie glared at him. “Stop spreading rumors. I would never bawl my eyes out for any man.”
“Then who was the person who ran amok and cried like a baby in the rain and even beat up an innocent passerby just now?”
“I didn’t cry. The rain got into my eyes.”
“Fine, fine, you didn’t cry. My beloved lead singer is the coolest woman in the world…”
Jovan agreed with whatever Flossie said.
“But I’m curious. Is that all you’re gonna do?”
Jovan asked curiously, “You said just now you would make my arrogant cousin pay. What’s your plan?”
“I haven’t thought about it.”
Flossie sighed. Her face was filled with sadness. “There’s no right and wrong in love. You get together if you like each other and you break up if you don’t like each other anymore. I can blame no one but myself for being stupid. It’s not like I can actually do anything to make him pay. Do you want me to break his leg or something?”
It was only a marriage. If she was betrayed, then she could just get a divorce. There was no need to make a big fuss. That was what she believed.
But if she let him off just like that, she could not appease the anger in her heart.
“I have an idea. You can pay him back without causing him bodily harm.”
“I’m all ears.”
Jovan turned back on his seat and gestured to Flossie to move closer. “Move your ear closer. I’ll tell you.”
Flossie was too innocent. She leaned forward curiously. The strap of her summer dress slid off her shoulder due to the slightly large neckline, revealing her snow-white skin.
Jovan caught a quick glance and gulped unconsciously. His voice was a bit hoarse as he said, “Marry me and snatch the H Group away from him!”
“? ? ?”
Flossie was so mad that she was close to fainting. Her head was almost spewing fire.
“You damn brat, do you want another beating? How dare you trick me again!”
Seeing Flossie pull back her fist to give him another punch, Jovan quickly raised his hands and begged for mercy. “My good sister-in-law, hear me out. Let me finish…”
“What else is there to say? As if anything good could result from this!”
“I’m not asking you to marry me for real. It’s just an opportunity for you to vent your anger…”
Jovan said seriously, “Think about it. Halston betrayed you in order to make peace with the Murphy family so that he can protect the H Group. If, in the end, the H Group ended up in your hands and you even obtained a handsome, obedient husband like me, surely it would be like a slap to his face!”
“Obtain the H Group?”
This actually piqued Flossie’s interest.
Her Azure Group was poised to take off. If she could truly obtain the industry’s leading corporation, the H Group, then not only would the Azure Group have a bright future, even the fallen Ellsworth family could regain their former glory.
Before this, she cared about Halston’s feelings, so she never thought about doing something like this, but now… why not?
Jovan had been observing her expression. He smiled triumphantly, “How about it? Wanna join hands with me and give it a shot?”
Seeing how eager Jovan was, Flossie scoffed, “You’re still so ambitious even after what happened the last time. Have you forgotten how you got kicked down like a dog after you failed to usurp the throne? It hasn’t even been that long since then and you’re already planning something new. Aren’t you afraid that Halston will end you once and for all?”
“Even if the sky collapses, you’ll be there to hold it up. Why should I be afraid?”
“Besides, all I want is to defeat him. I want to see him fall off the altar and be deserted by the people close to him. I don’t really care who ends up with the H Group.”
After listening to his plan, Flossie had a thoughtful expression.
‘Tsk tsk, this guy is really crazy!’
“You’re so obsessed with Halston. You’ve been fighting against him your whole life. Could you have any special feelings for him that you haven’t noticed yourself?”
