Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
Ordinary folks would have felt intimidated in this situation, but Julian was no ordinary man.
“I don’t think I’m lacking in the looks department, so I’ll give it a shot,” he said in a serious tone.
“Alright, then. You said it yourself that this place won’t do, so let’s go somewhere else,” Flossie replied brightly. She grabbed the man’s tie and started dragging him out of the room.
The man seemed very obedient, and there was a playful smirk on his face that suggested he might actually be enjoying himself.
Xavier, who happened to come to the club to look for someone, witnessed this very scene. His jaw dropped. He wanted to stop Flossie, but she had already dragged the unknown man into the elevator.
The scene was so shocking that he stood there for a few minutes trying to process it. Once he regained his senses, he immediately called Halston. “Halston, do you know who I just saw?”
“Get to the point.”
“Your wife is going to book a hotel room with another man!”
To make matters worse, Xavier added on bluntly, “That man looked just like you too!”
Flossie hailed a taxi, and she and Julian got in together, Flossie then told the driver where they wanted to go. Within twenty minutes, they’d arrived at their destination.
“We’re here. Let’s go!” Flossie led the man out of the car by his tie
Before them stood dome-shaped houses with bright exteriors. They glowed dimly under the pale moonlight, making them look like little stars. The atmosphere was rather romantic.
“It’s a big place, and it’s pretty. What do you think?” Flossie turned around and looked at Julian proudly. “This is my secret base, and it’s where I come when I feel stressed. Not many know about this place.”
“Secret base?” Julian looked at the houses, and raised his brows in silent appreciation. ”
Interesting.”
An attendant greeted them warmly when they entered. “Ms. Ellsworth, will you be using Room No.3 as usual? We’ve already prepared everything you need.”
“Thank you.” Rence smiled at the attendant. It looked as if she was a frequent customer here.
Room No. 3 was the most secluded room, but it had the best environment. It was also the quietest room, so nobody would disturb them there.
Flossie knew her way to Room No. 3. She entered the passcode and opened the door. “Please come in, my playmate for the evening.”
Julian was just wondering how love hotels were decorated these days, but when he walked into the room, he was speechless. “What… What is this place?”
“What do you think?”
Flossie eagerly walked in, reaching out to touch a top-of-the-line mechanical keyboard. Her eyes were glowing with excitement. “Millions of gamers have been waiting for this XF keyboard. It has a first-class feel to it, and is equipped with a third generation optical axis and a high level of sensitivity. This, coupled with a high-end console and display, would make it impossible for us to lose any game!”
It took Julian five minutes to process what Rence had just said. “So, this isn’t a love hotel, but a … cyber cafe?”
“Love hotel?” Rence’s eyes widened.
Flossie smacked Julian’s head. “You’re young and handsome, but you have such a dirty mind! Of course, this is a cyber cafe. Many professional gamers train here. Gamers who don’t have a high status in the esports industry can’t even get in!”
“So, just to clarify… Did you actually mean playing games when you said we’d have fun?”
“What else would it be?” Flossie let out a long sigh. “I wanted to ask you guys to form a team with me. I mean, you’re all so handsome; it would have been nice to look at some eye candy after getting tired from playing games. I wasn’t expecting your teammates to be such cowards, though. They ran for their lives when they heard Halston’s name. What a shame!”
Julian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He finally saw for himself how prim and proper Mrs. Guajardo was. He shook his head slightly in amusement.
”
“Well, you’ve come to the right person.” Julian crossed his fingers eagerly and smiled a little. Aside from tinkering with electronics, I also love playing games. What do you want to play?”
“Hmm…We don’t have enough people for online games, so let’s play a ivi solo game.”
“Sure. Which one?”
“Contra!” Flossie replied eagerly.
Julian nearly choked. “That game came out ages ago! You really like vintage stuff, don’t you?”
“Hah! A classic game never goes out of style.” Flossie switched on the hands together. “Less talk, more action!”
game and rubbed her
Although Julian wasn’t fond of the idea, he still played the game with her.
He thought Flossie was an amateur, but she defeated him several times. After a while, he began to doubt his abilities. The battle was indeed intense…
Meanwhile, in the president’s office of H Group.
After ending the call with Xavier, Halston continued working as if nothing happened.
They were divorced, after all. He had nothing to do with his ex-wife’s affairs, and he wouldn’t be affected by them.
However, the document he was looking at was starting to feel like Morse code. He couldn’t focus enough to read a single word, and he kept recalling how Xavier said his wife was booking a hotel room with another man.
“Damn it!”
Halston closed the document and dialed Flossie’s number. After that, something shocking happened…
Halston heard a mechanical voice in his ear: “Sorry, the number you have dialed is not in service.
Not in service?!
Halston tried to control his rage. Maybe Flossie had changed her phone number, and she wasn’t trying to avoid him.
He clicked on Flossie’s contact, opened up the messaging application, and sent her a question mark. The message didn’t go through. Clearly, he had been blocked.
“Damn it!” Halston cursed under his breath, his expression dark.
That woman had cut him off completely. She really was merciless!
They’d only been divorced for a week, but she’d already pried away H Group’s major clients, and was now spending her evenings in nightclubs with different men. Her life seemed to be full of fun and excitement, didn’t it?
Her ex–husband’s reputation was practically ruined!
Halston massaged his temples and gritted his teeth in frustration. After pondering for a moment, he dialed Elijah’s number.
