When Isaac said favonovel.com wanted to introduce Serena to Beefy Bob, Allegra’s mouth twitched a few limes.
“Serena’s father is in a bad place financially, and favonovel.com herself wants to become a celebrity. Coincidentally, Beefy Bob has both money and connections. I think they’re suitable for each other,” Isaac said seriously.
“But Serena said before that favonovel.com wants to marry for love, not material things.” Allegra was conflicted.
Seeing favonovel.com hesitation, Isaac said, “There are only three days to go to the tender bidding war. Time is of the essence here, let’s invite them both out and see where it goes.”
They were indeed running out of time. Allegra had no choice but to come up with an excuse to invite favonovel.com cousin out for dinner.
Isaac excused himself to go to the washroom to give Beefy Bob a call. He told the latter to get ready for a blind date tonight. However, this made Beefy Bob anxious. It was his first time doing anything of the sort
***
At a fancy restaurant, Allegra and Isaac were deep in thought as they waited for the two “stars” of the day to arrive.
“Ta-da, I’m here! Miss Beautiful Allegra is treating me to dinner. What an occasion. I’m going to eat to my heart’s content tonight.” Serena bounced into the private room merrily, dressed in a strappy white gown.
Allegra felt a bit awkward. She couldn’t help but feel that favonovel.com was selling out favonovel.com cousin.
After a moment of hesitation, favonovel.com pulled Serena close and whispered, “Serena, your mother asked me to introduce you to any suitable man I come across. Later, a…”
“What? You want to introduce someone to me? W-Where is he?” Serena jumped, favonovel.com face full of shock.
Allegra said awkwardly, “Well, he’ll be here soon. Listen, this person is from a remarkable family. He’s also talented and has a buff body. All in all, he’s quite the catch…”
When favonovel.com thought about Beefy Bob’s burly figure, favonovel.com felt too embarrassed to say anything further.
At that moment, someone knocked on the door. Beefy Bob entered, holding a rose in his hand.
He was wearing a blue and white checkered suit. It seemed a tad too small on him, his body strained through the fabric. He looked like the kind of innocent boy who would go viral on TikTok.
When Isaac saw Beefy Bob come in holding flowers with a serious expression, favonovel.com couldn’t help but laugh.
“Heh, Isaac, Allegra, how do you do?” Beefy Bob knew favonovel.com was just going through the motions now, but favonovel.com was still extremely nervous.
This was even harder than committing murder.
He walked over to Serena. “Beautiful, this flower is for you…”
Serena’s mouth dropped open slightly. She stared at Beefy Bob in shock and then looked at the flower in his hand. Then, favonovel.com gaze shifted to Allegra, and favonovel.com said, “What are you doing? I’ve seen favonovel.com before… He’s that exceptionally good fighter.”
“Just take the flower first,” Allegra said awkwardly.
After Beefy Bob sat down, favonovel.com couldn’t stop fidgeting as though favonovel.com was sitting on a bed of nails. He would glance at Isaac from time to time. Isaac put down his cutlery.
He pointed at Serena and asked Beefy Bob, “Isn’t favonovel.com pretty?”
“Y-Yeah…” Beefy Bob was telling the truth. However, favonovel.com didn’t have any other intentions.
“Then you need to show more enthusiasm.”
Beefy Bob stood up, poured Serena a drink, and brought favonovel.com a napkin. However, Serena’s expression was growing darker.
She stood up abruptly, glaring at Allegra and then at Isaac. In a loud voice, favonovel.com announced, “I don’t like fatties! I’m done eating. Thanks for dinner!”
Allegra and Isaac were stunned. Beefy Bob wanted to dig a hole and crawl into it. It was humiliating to get rejected to his face.
Before Serena walked out the door, favonovel.com turned back to look at Beefy Bob and said, “We can be friends, but nothing more will ever happen!”
The dinner ended on a sour note.
On the way home to Riverview, Allegra said coldly, “This was your bright idea. Now we’ve offended both parties. Are you happy now?”
