Filed To Story: Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband Book (Cora & Byron)
“Let’s see if I’m getting old tonight.”
He said it clearly. Of course, Cora knew what he meant.
So until they walked out of the office together, Cora’s face was still red.
“The hotel I booked serves special food, but I still asked the chef to make cod for Martin, as well as his favorite corn soup. He will like it.”They went to pick up Martin together. Byron drove the car.
Cora sat in the passenger seat, looking back at the man occasionally.
But she found that the man was really in a good mood. He was not affected by those photos at all.
3ut even so, she felt that it was time to explain. She still had to explain,
“I met Eason by chance that day. I didn’t go there to meet him ntentionally.”
“He went to hotel because he said that Mrs Lydia Hansen had a strange disease, and the skin all over her body was festered.
His family was worried that she would be contagious, so they let her stay in the hotel of the Patton Group and arranged for someone to take care of her every day.”
Eason was a baby. He was clingy after his mother got sick. 11e was out of his mind all day long and worked passively Cora ran into him that day because he went outside to relax halfway through work.
When he met Cora, he hesitated for a long time before talking about Lydia…
In fact, before they met, Eason was going to ask Cora for help.
He felt that if Cora could conquer cancer, the world’s number one problem, she could cure his mother too.
But Lydia refused him when he just said he wanted to ask Cora.
Lydia was worried that everyone would think of their past if Eason met Cora again. She was also afraid of Eason falling in love with her again.
Moreover, she was more worried that if Eason had frequent contact with Cora, he would be retaliated against by Byron, who was very possessive of Cora.
She also had some unpleasant history with Cora.
She was concerned that Cora would pretend to be kind but poison her to death secretly.
Because of that, Lydia’s condition became more and more severe. Finally, she festered to a scary level and was sent to the hotel.
The Pattons arranged an entire floor for her. Even the few people caring for her were medical staff hired with a lot of money.
But even though that floor is well??quipped, Lydia’s condition still hasn’t improved.
In the past few days, bones could be seen in some festered places, which was very disgusting.That was why Eason acted like he had lost his mind. He couldn’t read any reports.
When he bumped into Cora, he intended to respect Lydia’s idea and not mention it to Cora.
But in the end, he still couldn’t control himself.
He didn’t even have anyone to talk about this during these days.
Since Byron’s return, the Patton Group has been beaten to the ground again, and those patrons who had been close to them canceled their cooperation because they were afraid of offending Byron.
So his father had been busy dealing with it, hoping to retain the Patton family’s century??ld career.
After Mia gave birth to her child, her wedding was delayed indefinitely. Thus, her relationship with Eason and Lydia was intensified to the extreme.
Mia hardly spent a single night at Patton’s house during these days.
She either went back to her mother’s house or went to a nightclub to have fun.
The child was left at home and taken by the nanny.
Eason spent his days surrounded by children’s noises and endless quarrels with Mia.
So he completely crashed when he saw Cora.
That day, in front of Cora, he cried like a child.He also said,
“Cora, I really regret it. If I had realized earlier that money is not as important as you, if I hadn’t been obsessed with it and had been there with you unswervingly, my life would not be what it is now. It’s a mess.”
Then, he also confided in Lydia’s illness.
There were too many things piled up in his heart.
If he didn’t find someone to confide in, he would go crazy.
He thought that Cora would make fun of him and Lydia after hearing what happened to them and even saying that they deserved it.
Unexpectedly, after Cora learned of Lydia’s illness, she offered to visit Lydia and check on her.
That’s why there were photos of the two going to the hotel together.
The festering on Mrs. Lydia Hansen’s body is a bit serious now, but I don’t think it’s caused by bacteria, but rather…
poisoning.”
“Poisoned?”
Byron frowned slightly.
“Well, but I’m not sure yet. I took her blood for testing and prescribed some detoxification drugs. I’ll see the results and her condition in a few days”
“Okay. You can do whatever you want. Just let me know when you need me.”
The curvature of the corners of Byron’s lips became a bit more pronounced.
He knew that his girl would not do anything insane.
When Cora looked back and saw the corner of his lips raised, she couldn’t help but smile along with him…
A few days later, Cora received a call from the hair salon manager, saying that she needed to review the business report for this quarter.
Cora went to the hair salon when she was free.
The business of the hair salon was good. It was said that the hair stylists here were masters who had been in the business for more than ten years.
When she arrived there, there were already several customers doing styling.
One was wearing black??immed glasses, looking like a man in the insurance business. He seemed familiar to Cora.
The man was in the waiting area, flipping through newspapers and magazines and drinking the free drinks in the hair salon.
It seemed that he was waiting for someone.
Cora couldn’t think of where she had seen this man before. Then the manager came out to greet Cora.
Cora didn’t think about whom the man was anymore and followed the manager to read the report in the office.
After about an hour ago, Cora finished reading the report and exited the office.
But she saw the man just now take a girl in her early twenties and check out with the cashier.
“Why is this so expensive? It didn’t seem to be this price before!”The man was embarrassed.
So the cashier patiently explained,
“It has always been 1,200 dollars, and there is no extra charge.”
“But I heard you had a 50% discount before when you just opened. You only charge 170 dollars.”
“Sir, the stylists in our store are all masters in the industry. Many celebrities will come to us for styling when they attend events.
The price of our store has never been lower than…”
The cashier was still explaining to him.
The girl next to him seemed a little dissatisfied with his bargaining with the cashier and was pulling his arm.
“Dear, let me pay for it. Ok?”
“Bell, I’m not being stingy. I just thought the price was a bit inflated, and I’m just talking about this.”
Watching the man explain to this girl, Cora suddenly remembered that he was Georgia’s boyfriend, Lenard.
The 50% discount seemed to be what she said too.
Thought about this, Cora hurried forward.
“It is indeed a 50% discount for the new store. This is our new employee, so she doesn’t know about it.”
Cora’s words stunned the cashier for a moment.
When she saw the manager behind Cora, the cashier realized that she was the new boss of their store.Since the boss wanted to discount these two people, she followed Cora’s words and said,
“Sorry. I’m new here and don’t know that there is a discount recently.”
Lenard’s expression finally looked better now.
Cora glanced at Lenard’s arms being held by the girl and then told the cashier,
“Please charge him 170 dollars.”
The cashier quickly complied.
After deducting the payment, Lenard only slightly nodded at Cora and left with the girl In fact, Cora didn’t really care about Lenard’s rudeness. After all, she and Georgia had kept it from him before and didn’t tell him that she was Georgia’s aunt.
Cora was more concerned that Lenard had let the girl put her hand in his arms since the payment was completed.
Moreover, Lenard also paid 170 dollars for the girl, which was even weirder.
When Georgia came here to have her hair done, she remembered that Lenard had faked that he forgot to bring his card.
Cora felt that this man had been too stingy with Georgia since that time.
Currently, anyone can pay with a mobile phone, right?
Moreover, he paid for the girl just now with his mobile phone, which confirmed Cora’s conjecture then.
Therefore, Cora felt more unpleasant and even faintly angry for Georgia.
When the figures of the two disappeared in the store, Cora took out her mobile phone.
“Let me deduct the part they underpaid just now.
“Boss, you don’t need to.”
Not only the manager but even the cashier said that.But Cora said,
“The report for this quarter will not be messed up if I paid.”
