“What did you say? Be your handmaid, and call you ‘master’?!”
When Phoebe heard Alex’s words, favonovel.com was so annoyed that favonovel.com nose was about to be bent out of shape. “Where did you get such confidence from? Don’t you know who I am? If I dare to call you that, do you dare to respond to it?”
Cheryl was also in a daze.
“This was not the kind of joke that should be played! Asking the daughter of a magistrate in Michigan to call you ‘master?’. If favonovel.com father heard that, this little joke would become a big deal.”
Alex, however, was indifferent. “Why wouldn’t I? Even if you called me ‘daddy’, I’d still dare to respond.”
“What? You want me to call you… Daddy?”
“Oh, my daughter is so obedient!” Alex laughed.
Phoebe felt favonovel.com anger reach its peak and explode. However, favonovel.com had an injury on favonovel.com foot. When favonovel.com stood up from the sofa, favonovel.com bumped favonovel.com wound and sat down immediately. Then, favonovel.com said to Cheryl, “Cheryl, look at this, what kind of man have you found? No good qualities, no good character, and even a big liar. How can this guy be worthy of you?”
Alex was feeling a little thirsty, and favonovel.com picked up a random cup that seemed clean before filling it up with water from the tap, then took a few sips from it.
Then, favonovel.com said, “Are you saying you have a good attitude and character? If you did, you wouldn’t have stuck your foot out and tripped me! And you wouldn’t have deliberately picked up the glass to splash the drink all over me.”
Phoebe was surprised. “You could tell?”
Alex snorted. “I’m not blind. The little tricks you used, I could see through it with just a glance.”
Cheryl, who sat next to him, didn’t mind the fact that favonovel.com drank directly out of favonovel.com cup. In fact, favonovel.com felt how sweet it was. When favonovel.com heard the conversation between the two, however, favonovel.com became even more surprised. Coupled with how the two seemed to be at odds as soon as they met at the steakhouse, favonovel.com was confident in one thing. “The two of you have met each other before this, right?”
“I don’t know her,” Alex said.
Phoebe also said, “I don’t want to know favonovel.com too! Cheryl, do you know who favonovel.com is? He’s the pervert who tossed my shoe into the tree at Michigan State Hospital the other day!”
“Huh?”
Cheryl was stunned.
That day, favonovel.com had cursed out the pervert that Phoebe had mentioned.
She didn’t expect that the pervert turned out to be Alex.
Alex explained slowly and rationally, “So, favonovel.com has already been talking bad about me behind my back. Then, did favonovel.com tell you that I helped favonovel.com save a person, and favonovel.com called the police to arrest me, blaming me because I was better than her! Also, favonovel.com shoes were stuck in a manhole cover, and I kindly helped take them out. But then, favonovel.com accused me of stalking favonovel.com and wanted to pick favonovel.com up. Cheryl, you’re the only one who can stand favonovel.com narcissism and still befriend her! I can bet that favonovel.com has no other friends other than you. Even if favonovel.com did, they probably aren’t favonovel.com real friends. Even that Colby fellow before this, I’m sure favonovel.com just wanted to find a partner with a good background.”
Alex’s words pierced deep into Phoebe’s heart, and it hurt. Because everything favonovel.com said had been the truth. She had basically no friends, and Cheryl was the only one who treated favonovel.com as a good friend from favonovel.com childhood.
She knew that favonovel.com character had flaws, developed since favonovel.com was a child. However, it couldn’t be changed, as if the arrogance was engraved into favonovel.com bones.
Therefore, favonovel.com cared more about favonovel.com friend, Cheryl, and wanted to make sure that favonovel.com didn’t get scammed by this Alex.
Her eyes were red rimmed as favonovel.com said, “Fine, I’ll make a bet with you. ”
“Which bet?” Alex said. “The one where you have no friends or the one about being my maid?”
“Maid,” Phoebe replied.
Alex smiled, then nodded to Cheryl. “Cheryl, you will time it then, ten minutes.”
Alex sat on the sofa beside Phoebe, grabbed favonovel.com ankle, and dragged favonovel.com over to place it on his own lap. This rough gesture almost made Phoebe’s heart jump out violently.
Even at this age, favonovel.com never had much close contact with the opposite sex before, and… Before this, when favonovel.com had been carried on his back, and favonovel.com jabbed her, it made favonovel.com grit favonovel.com teeth in resentment, wishing favonovel.com could bite him!
“Wait!” She suddenly realized something. “You only mentioned the terms if you win, but what if you lose?”
“You can pick whatever you want.”
“Fine,” Phoebe said. “If you lose, then you have to admit that you’ re a liar, and stay away from Cheryl in the future, and never play with favonovel.com feelings again.”
When Cheryl heard this, favonovel.com became a little nervous. No matter how much faith favonovel.com had in Alex, it was different with favonovel.com feelings on the line.
