Chapter 140 – A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love

Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love

‘Damn it!’ Flossie was so mad that she wished she could slam the cake into the man’s face.

‘He needs to shut it if he has nothing good to say! He’s so annoying!’

However, her current self would not easily back down after feeling offended.

‘ Oh? Well, I guess it’s fair coming from you, Mr. Guajardo, since you have no excess fat around your waist. But I do wonder if you’ve done any’ adjustments’ to achieve those fake-looking muscles.” Flossie spoke in a sarcastic tone.

‘Shouldn’t you know if they’re real or not?” Halston remained expressionless. “Especially when you’ve had so many chances to feel me up.”

Flossie’s face immediately turned as red as a rose, feeling slightly embarrassed. ‘I’ll have to admit, I did get to touch his abs lots of times! It… felt pretty good, and I know for sure… that they’re real!’

‘Hold on!” Xavier turned to look at Halston, then towards Flossie. His gut was telling him that something was up, so he asked, “How would you know what your stomachs look like? Could something have happened last nigh…”

‘No!” The two denied at the very same time.

This made their thoughts wander off even more, which made Christopher grin. He pondered for a brief moment, ‘Looks like last night was quite… interesting for them. Halston finally did something good this time round.’

With that, the guilt in his heart was once again lifted.

“Alright, let’s not dawdle any longer. We should go!” Christopher said to everyone.

Xavier quickly agreed. “Mhm, mhm! The main characters are Chris and Cecy today! You two can show your love story sometime later! We’re going to be late if we keep staying here!”

Scanning everyone, Christopher pointed towards the expensive wedding car and made arrangements on his own. “Let’s ride in the same car. Xavier, you’re driving.”

“C’mon… Don’t we have a chauffeur? Why should I dri…” Xavier whined but stopped as soon as he understood Christopher’s intentions.

Nodding, he replied. ‘Alright, I’m great at driving! So count on me, y’all!”

Thus, Christopher and Xavier quickly sat down in the front, forcing Flossie and Halston into the backseat.

Flossie took a cupcake from the tray while speaking awkwardly. “I don’t think I should go. I’m not that close with you guys anyway.”

Putting that aside, all she really wanted was to try every dessert available since the bakers Christopher hired were extraordinarily skilled.

She’d rather happily enjoy these delicacies at the seaside than pick up the bride with these men, forcing herself to endure the awkwardness between them.

“It’s fine. You might not be close with us, but you’re close with Halston. That’s enough for us to bring you along!”

Christopher continued showing enthusiasm in inviting the woman.

Flossie thought to herself. ‘It is his big day. It’d be rude of me to kill his joy.’

Hence, she decided to agree. “Alright then!”

At the same time, she turned to look at the lovely desserts lined on delicate tin trays. She gulped as she thought. ‘Goodbye, my delicious desserts. I’ll come back to you for sure! I promise!’

Halston noticed this, making the corner of his thin lips curve slightly.

‘Wait.” Halston turned to Xavier, who was starting up the car.

‘What’s up, Halston? Don’t tell me you’re not close with your ex-wife now, of all people?”

‘I’m just a little hungry. Let me get something to eat.” The man responded coldly and strode towards the dessert section in the garden.

After a short moment, Halston brought a tray full of different desserts. There were milkshakes, cream puffs, mousse cakes, strawberry pudding, and more.

Christopher and Xavier looked utterly shocked, their eyes widening and their mouths agape.

Xavier teased the man with a sly grin. “Hey Halston, don’t you hate desserts? When did your tastes change, huh? You took so many desserts!”

Halston shot Xavier a dirty glare, ordering. “Focus on driving.”

After that, he acted aloof while speaking to Flossie, who was sitting next to him. “Take some if you want any.”

Flossie was practically drooling at the sight of the tray of desserts already, nodding profusely. “Thanks, Mr. Guajardo! Don’t mind if I do!”

After that, she took one of the puffs and bit down on it gleefully. The soft and crispy texture on the outside, with sweet greek yogurt wrapped inside, the flavors were just bursting in her mouth!

The woman actually intended to eat politely at first, but the desserts were just so delicious that she didn’t care about her image any longer. She started scarfing down everything on the tray, with cream all over her mouth.

All three dashing men in the car were absolutely stunned, especially Xavier. He had always viewed Flossie as a gentle, elegant woman. Despite her beauty, he found her rather boring in the past.

However, ever since she got a divorce from Halston, all her actions made him see her in a completely new light.

‘I didn’t think you were a foodie! Looks like we have another thing in common, apart from gaming!” Xavier couldn’t help but giggle, slowly warming up to Flossie.

As a foodie himself, he knew that foodies were usually simple-minded, so they wouldn’t be much of a bad person in the first place.

Halston expressed disdain. “How is that something in common? Any young person would love gaming and food!’

Xavier somehow didn’t notice Halston’s jealousy and started debating with him instead. “That’s not right, though! You don’t like gaming, and you’re not a foodie, Halston! Does that mean you’re an old man now?”

Halston’s expression darkened as he took a cream puff and handed it to Christopher. “Shove it in his mouth. He’s being too noisy.”

Flossie was still fixated on the desserts, acting as if this had nothing to do with her. She mumbled to herself. “Dang, this cream puff is so good! I must take some for Margaret when we return to the church!”

Now that she was pregnant, her appetite as a foodie only grew. Every time she had desserts, it was as if she could hear the little ones in her womb cheering with joy.

Suddenly, Halston blurted out. “Are those better than my lips?”

Hearing this, the entire car was quickly engulfed by an awkward atmosphere.
