A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love
Chapter 2141-2150
Chapter 2141 “Good morning, Miss Thomas,” Tina greeted with practiced ease.
“I'm Mr. Steve's secretary, Tina Adams.” Laura raised a curious brow.
Edwin had used ‘Nelson Steve’ as an alternate name, and Tina had been instructed to call him that only in Laura's presence.
The reason? It remained a mystery.
Laura looked stunning, draped in a loose-fitting man’s shirt. Her lean calves were accentuated against the fabric.
Tina's eyes kept drifting back to her.
Edwin, sensing Tina's lingering attention, said with a touch of irritation, “Go wait in the car.” Once the door closed behind Tina, Edwin's gaze settled on Laura, taking in her apparent discomfort.
Softening, he asked, “Did last night's birthday surprise sit well with you?” Her cheeks flushed in response.
Spotting her bare feet, he quickly fetched a pair of slippers.
“No more wandering shoeless,” he admonished gently.
“I've got a meeting about an acquisition. We'll spend some quality time later tonight.” Laura's silent response was a prolonged, intense gaze.
A childhood accident had left her with aphasia; and even after receiving treatment overseas, words seldom escaped her lips. Aside from her parents, she was mostly ensconced in her own world. That was until Nelson entered her life.
Their relationship had spanned a year, with Nelson introducing her to this apartment three months back.
She'd essentially moved in, with her studio relocated here, immersing herself in work. Nelson didn't always stay the night due to his demanding job.
The fondness in Laura's eyes as she looked at Edwin was palpable.
He was about to depart, but seeing the longing in her gaze, he couldn't resist pulling her into a tender embrace.
EE oT TR SE i Koos “I've got some new recipes planned for tonight.” Laura nestled closer, nodding her understanding.
Edwin's gaze settled on Laura.
Chapter 2142 Though she was a year his senior, she was so sheltered, thanks to Peter and Lina's overprotective parenting. Laura wasn't acquainted with the nuances of household chores, nor was she keen on mingling in social circles.
She exuded an innocent naivete he rarely encountered, reminding him of someone he couldn't quite place.
Smoothing out his suit, Edwin made his exit.
Once inside the car, Tina shot him a knowing look, noticing the tousled state of his hair.
It was obvious they had a quick session before he left.
Tina remarked, “Miss Thomas is truly captivating. She's not at all how I pictured her.” Diving into the acquisition details, Edwin's attention momentarily wavered as he questioned, “How did you picture her, then?” Wearing a knowing smile, Tina responded, “Given Miss Thomas’ intricate and I her as modern and vintage-styled designs, pegged edgy. But in person, she’s delicate; reminds me of a gentle creature that just tugs at your heart.” Edwin gave a half-laugh, signaling Tina to tread lightly with her words.
Being the perceptive woman she was, she swiftly shifted gears, diving into work chatter.
As the clock struck eleven, Edwin's latest achievement became the talk of the town. At 26, he had risen to the top, becoming the primary shareholder of the Lewis Group.
A massive 12 billion dollar asset shuffle put him in the spotlight.
Over the next couple of years, he had big plans to revamp the Lewis Group and reintroduce it to the market.
That evening, the Lewis Group threw a grand party in honor of this significant milestone.
Edwin, with his newfound status, was the center of attention.
High-profile celebrities and socialites gravitated towards him, but he maintained his distance, always having an eye for the finer things.
‘When Edwin's phone buzzed, Mark's name flashed on the screen.
Edwin greeted him with a grin.
After exchanging a few words, he shared some of his ambitious plans.
Mark, usually hard to impress, genuinely admired Edwin's assertive tactics.
“It's only chapter one,” Edwin remarked, an air of nonchalance in his voice.
Once the call ended, Tina approached with an update.
“Mr. Evans, your appointments for the day are wrapped up. You deserve some rest after today’s whirlwind.” Feeling the weight of the day on his shoulders, Edwin handed Tina his drink and loosened his tie.
Chapter 2143 “I can feel the fatigue. Let the former executives of the Lewis Group know we're meeting at nine tomorrow,” he instructed, already making his way out.
A sleek black Rolls-Royce awaited him outside. Chris Shelton, ever the punctual chauffeur, held the door open for him.
Chris caught sight of Edwin and promptly opened the car door, a gesture of respect.
Edwin slipped inside gracefully.
As he settled, Tina leaned closer, her voice gentle yet professional, “Good night, Mr. Evans.” Edwin simply nodded, his thoughts already drifting elsewhere.
A memory flickered-his promise to Laura about a homemade meal. He glanced at the time and sighed, realizing it was far too late.
The rich aroma of perfume encircled him.
Swiftly, he handed over his jacket to Tina, instructing, “Send this to dry-cleaning.” For amoment, Tina looked taken aback.
But before she could process, the limo's door clicked shut and the vehicle glided away.
ANGELA'sLIBRARY Edwin's voice broke the silence after a while.
“Pull over at the next corner; pick up some wontons at that restaurant.” Chris, well-acquainted with the routines and preferences in Edwin's life, grinned.
“Ah, Miss Thomas’ favorite?” Receiving no response, Chris focused on the road while Edwin sank into deep contemplation.
Memories flooded back; the chance encounter with Laura overseas and his deliberate efforts to win her heart.
