Chapter 1810

[ 599 words ]

Don’t be fooled into thinking men don’t get jealous of better-looking guys. Julian was the epitome of average.

He came from a good background, his parents were attractive, and his older siblings had inherited great genes.

But somehow, the genetic lottery had completely bypassed him, blessing him with every single one of his parents’ physical flaws.

It was the greatest tragedy of his life.

He was determined to marry a beautiful woman to fix his family’s gene pool for the next generation.

That was exactly why he had locked his sights on Fannie.

But she stubbornly refused to take the bait. Tonight, he had finally used their business partners as an excuse to get her drunk, hoping to force her into a relationship.

Who knew some random guy would hijack his perfect plan halfway through?

This professor-he was undeniably a massive heartthrob.

The way Fannie looked at him, she practically wanted to eat him alive.

No wonder the stupid bitch had no interest in him. She was obsessed with pretty boys!

What a shallow, superficial slut!

Regardless of his internal rage, Julian kept a perfectly calm facade.

“Fannie, it’s getting late. Let me take you home.”

“Whatever business you have with your friend, you can discuss it another time.”

Julian reached for her again.

“I don’t need you to take me home. Norris and Claire can drop me off.”

Terrified of irritating Norris, Fannie leaned heavily toward Claire.

Norris stepped smoothly in front of Julian, blocking his path.

“You’re Julian Quincy, I presume?”

“Since she explicitly said she doesn’t want you taking her home, I suggest you leave.”

His tone carried a suffocating wave of pressure, forcing Julian to tilt his head up to look at him.

Yes, tilt his head up.

Claire stifled a laugh.

This Julian guy reeked of arrogant, sleazy boss energy.

He couldn’t be taller than five-foot-seven, meaning he genuinely had to look up to meet Norris’s eyes.

Yet, Julian puffed out his chest like a rooster, looking like he was about to jump up and punch Norris in the kneecap.

“I just don’t want to inconvenience you, Professor.”

Julian finally connected the dots. During the international math

Rumors had circulated that she had a massive crush on him.

Julian hadn’t believed it at the time.

Now, it looked like the rumors were dead on.

Look at this stupid woman-her eyes were practically glued to the guy.

What a shallow bitch, only caring about a pretty face!

This Norris guy was just a college professor. How much money could he possibly make to have her swooning like this?

Julian was seething with rage, but he couldn’t exactly tackle Norris to grab her, could he?

She was currently hiding behind that little brat.

Wait, was this young girl a student?

She was actually even prettier than Fannie.

Julian suddenly stared at Claire with

She was looking at the grease

trap of a deep fryer.

She frowned in disgust. Just as she opened her mouth to speak, Honoria stepped forward and beat her to it.

“Norris, this gentleman and the journalist are likely in a relationship.”

“It’s getting late. You should just let him take his girlfriend home.”

“Otherwise, people might worry.”

The moment Honoria opened her mouth, she forcibly labeled them a couple.

Julian was thrilled, but Fannie definitely was not!

“He is my boss, not my boyfriend.”

Fannie didn’t even look at Honoria

when she said it. She looked straight

at Norris, desperately trying to explain herself to him. .net

Norris wanted to say that this had absolutely nothing to do with him.

But for once, he kept his mouth shut.

Honoria’s smile froze.

She had deliberately tried to pair them off to get rid of the competition.

Who knew Fannie would still prioritize explaining herself to Norris in a moment like this?

Wasn’t she terrified of offending her boss?
