Chapter 18 Failed Trick

Yusuf's ears pricked up when he heard those words.He could never resist meeting women.He said excitedly, "Tell me about her! Something tells me this lady is very beautiful.You have good taste, so I'd love to meet her."

Edmund's face darkened once he heard this.He wished he could slap Yusuf through the phone.

"Well...The lady in question is Chelsea.What do you think of her?" Ethan asked tentatively.

A loud bang came from the other end of the line all of a sudden.It was followed by Yusuf's pitiful cry.

"Ouch! I almost burned myself to death!"

It took about a minute before Yusuf got over the pain and spoke again.

"I'm sorry, Mr.Nelson.I knocked over my cup of coffee.Where were we? Aha! You said something, but I didn't hear it clearly.Can you repeat that?"

"I said that I'd like to introduce Chelsea to you," Ethan said impatiently.

"Oh, what a coincidence! I actually started dating someone recently.I love her so much.It's bad to date two women at the same time, so I intend to stay faithful to my girlfriend."

Ethan was speechless.

What was wrong with Yusuf? Didn't he just say that he would be glad to meet the beautiful woman in question? "Thank you for caring about my love life, Mr.Nelson.I'll make sure to visit you someday.I have to attend to something, so I'll hang up now.Bye!"
