Filed To Story: Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband Book (Cora & Byron)

Cora shoved the thought away, she had bigger things to worry about today because it’s the last day to pay the bill.

It was Monday today. Cora rushed to the First Hospital.

Cora was a medical student and was currently working as an intern in the emergency room of the First

Hospital in New York, so her salary was pitifully low.

Sally Gray, also the intern this semester and the best friend of Cora, handed her a sandwich in a ziploc bag.

“Why are you so late today?”

“I erm…

didn’t hear my alarm.”

After putting on her white coat, Cora opened the sandwich bag and took a bite.

But after a few bites, Cora saw Sally smiling at her.

“But you look glowy this morning. Did you and your man finally…”

Even though Sally didn’t finish her sentence, Cora could guess what Sally was talking about.

“How could I?”

The image of Byron’s final thrusts before release came into her mind. It was so damn sexy that just thinking about it made her blush.

“Are you lying to me? From your look, I can tell you’ve slept with a man recently. Look at the kiss marks…”

Sally was an expert in this field.

Cora quickly pulled up the collar of her white coat.

“Fine, you caught me.”

“Oh my GOD you finally lost your V card? Spill! How’s Eason’s sex technique? It should be pretty good, right?”

Carol’s heart felt as if it had been pricked by needles when Sally mentioned the name of Eason.

She blurted out,

“Sally, it wasn’t him last night.”

Sally looked at her with shock etched on her face, then Sally looked around to make sure no one was listening,

“Girl I love you to death but cheating is risky business. If Easo finds you, your engagement is gonna be screwed.”

Sally was analyzing the consequences of this matter with Cora.

“Sally, even if I did have sex with him, we can never be together again.”

“What, why?”

Finally, Cora told Sally everything. After she was done, Sally was beyond furious.

“Cora, you dodged a effing bullet. Good thing you didn’t marry him, what a prick!”

“Yup, I am so much better off without him,”

Cora said, smiling.

“Now I just want to have fun, and try to live my life the best way I can.”

Sally nodded in agreement. As for who the man with Cora last night was, Sally didn’t care that much, as long as he could make Cora happy.

After encouraging Cora, the two returned to their busy work in the emergency room.

This kind of busyness continued until noon. Cora took advantage of the lunchtime break to call Carter

Pope.

From her first phone call till meeting Carter Pope, the entire process only took thirty minutes.

Carter showed up at First Hospital and met her at the hospital cafeteria’s coffee shop.

He wore a black suit and looked like a business elite. He didn’t talk much but he was very efficient.

“Just sign right here on the dotted line, and write down your bank account number. From now on, you’ll get a share in all the alcohol that is sold in Spire 73.”

Everything happened so fast that Cora was in a daze, it wasn’t until Sally popped over and asked her did she realize it really all happened.

“Cora, isn’t that eldest son of the super rich Pope family? What were you discussing with him?”

“It’s a long story,”

Cora said. How should I describe my relationship with Carter?

I’m sleeping with Carter’s boss? Cora thought.

While Cora was trying to find her words to describe her relationship with Carter, Sally took it the wrong way and immediately said.

“Okay, I understand. Just remember, protect yourself okay?”

Cora blinked a few times,

“Protect myself from what?”

Sally rolled her eyes.

“Contraception, duh!”

Cora covered her aching head and said,

“No, no no. It’s not like that. I just signed a contract with Carter to act as the agent for the alcohol he’s selling in Spire 73.”

“Right, and why would he help you for no reason…

?”

Cora stopped talking. After all, Sally was right. It’s just that the person in question was not Carter Pope, but Byron Hansen.

For some reason, Cora didn’t want to tell Sally about Byron. Maybe it’s because Byron is Eason’s uncle, or maybe it’s just because she wants to keep him to herself…

What Cora didn’t expect…

was for this misunderstanding to continue.

…

When Sally found out that Cora had just broken up, she was afraid that Cora would be in a bad mood, so she reserved a table for two in Cora’s favorite restaurant in advance and took her there after work.

“Did you make a reservation?”

Before they entered the restaurant, a waiter stopped them.

This restaurant was very high end, and the reservations were pretty hard to get.

“Yes, I made a reservation in advance.”

When Sally finished speaking and the waiter was about to let them in, a female voice rang out.

“Why do you allow nobodies like them in? Aren’t you afraid they can’t pay the bill?”

Cora and Sally turned around and saw Mia entering the restaurant with her personal shopper.

“Miss Donald!”

The waiter, who had been indifferent just now, immediately put on a warm smile when he saw Mia

Donald.

Even the GM rushed over after Mia came in.

Everyone in New York knew Mia Donald, the bratty daughter of the Donald family.

“Mia, did you not brush your teeth this morning? Your breath stinks.”

Since finding out Mia stole Cora’s fiance, Sally’s been meaning to go off on Mia.

Mia gritted her teeth and said,

“What are you talking about!”

“I guess even money can’t buy good dental hygiene”

Sally rolled her eyes and laughed.

Mia knew she wasn’t going to win in an argument so she turned to the manager of the restaurant.

“These two don’t deserve to eat with me here. Drive them out!”

The manager told Cora and Sally,

“Miss, we don’t welcome rude people like you in our restaurant.

Please find another place.”

Mia often came to their restaurant to eat and her parents hosted events here so she was a VIP client.

The manager didn’t want to offend Mia for two nobodies.

Cora was also annoyed.

“She was the one who accused us of not being able to pay, how is she not the rude one?”

“Miss Donald is probably just stating a fact. If you don’t leave now, you will be blacklisted by our restaurant chain. In the future, you can’t enter any restaurants our group owns.”

The manager was cunning. He knew that morality and principles were important, but he had to give in to the interests in his hands.

Sally was upset too. She brought Cora out for dinner to make her happy, but it proved annoying.

When Mia saw what the manager did, she became increasingly arrogant and ridiculed them.

“Bah! See? Two bitches with no money and no power, and you want to pick a fight with me?”

Sally flew into a rage on the spot.

“That’s right. You have money and power but evidently, NO CLASS.

No wonder you only get to have Cora’s sloppy seconds!”
