Chapter 41: Moved on

“We still need to get it over with, right?”

Julie thinks Alice is right, which is why she didn’t stop her from meeting Randall Collins.

Her skin is as clear as white jades. Gentle, yet clear eyes of hers made this meeting extraordinary, even if they are just sitting there.

“Mr…Mr Collins…”

“Yes?”

Alice raises her bright eyes and holds tight to her nervous hands under the table, “I’m sorry Mr. Collins, there might be some misunderstandings…”

“It’s the 1998 Chateau Lafite. Try it, it tastes great.”

Randall Collins reaches out to the red wine bottle next to him with his long and fair fingers. He then pours a glass of red wine for Alice. His movements are so gentle as if he never heard what Alice said earlier.

Such attitude pisses Alice off. She knows Randall Collins doesn’t want to hear what she wants to tell him and that he has a will on his own. Flowery words have got no use on him, it is best to be straightforward.

Although Randall Collins tries to be as gentle as possible his emotions turn bad at the end of the dinner, and Alice’s rejections are the cause of his bad mood.

“Let me send you home,” Randall Collins looks into Alice’s eyes.

“It’s okay. Thank you for the dinner tonight, Mr. Collins. I have to say, you are very charming but I’m sorry. I feel bothered by your actions. Please don’t ever come and look for me anymore. Goodbye.”

Alice turns and leaves the scene immediately after she finishes her words, and she never cares to glance back.

Randall Collins’s face turns cold after hearing what Alice said. There is a striking coldness in his dark eyes but his lips curve upwards. This game is getting more and more interesting…
