Chapter 23 He Is My Boyfriend
“You only asked me out for lunch, Ms. Zimmerman?”
At noon, Bernice phoned Finnegan and invited him to a mid-scale restaurant.
“Are you saying that I can’t ask you out if there’s nothing important?” Bernice countered.
Her voice carried a trace of pique and mild resentment.
If an ordinary woman were to act so coquettishly, Finnegan would have remained unmoved. But considering the fact that she was a devastating beauty, he found it difficult to resist her allure. “That’s not what I meant. It’s just that today is Monday, and I think you’re likely swamped with work. You shouldn’t waste time treating me to a meal.”
Smiling, Bernice a*sured, “If it’s you, I don’t find it a waste of time no matter what we do.”
At that, Finnegan fell silent.
The corners of his l*ps twitched, and he subconsciously asked, “Are you flirting with me, Ms. Zimmerman?”
No sooner had that question escaped his l*ps that he regretted it.
However, Bernice had already heard it. Flushing bright red, she lowered her head and muttered, “Let’s eat first. Later, I’ll bring you to a place.”
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Despite sharing the same table, they did not interact as they ate.
“What a coincidence, Bernie!”
Just when the meal was on the verge of ending in silence, a man who practically had branded items covered all over him appeared beside them. He was dressed in an Armani suit with at gold Rolex watch on his wrist. “I was just planning to visit you in a few days after hearing that you’ve regained consciousness.”
Whipping out ten bills in the denomination of a hundred, he tossed them down before Finnegan. “Scram! How dare you share the same table with my Bernie when you’re a nob*dy!”
Finnegan eyed the bills in front of him before lifting his head to stare at the man.
“Well, if you want to humiliate me, you’ve got to offer more money!”
Bernice, who had gone into a bad mood at the sight of the man, was momentarily stunned.
