Perfect CEO

Felicia immediately shook her head. “Why would I? I know this is just a contract, and I will get the extra allowance from our deal to buy more bags.”

She suddenly came to realize that a man like Patrick would only ask her to pretend to be his girlfriend because he needed to deceive his family members.

Knowing he was not a man of commitment, she figured she should make him think she was in this for money instead of attempting to win his heart.

If he eliminated his ominous feeling toward her, he would likely let her continue to be his fake girlfriend.

Being his girlfriend was enough for her to boast around.

There would be plenty of benefits that come along with that title. Her family would also see her in a new light.

Patrick smiled faintly at her and took out a check before writing ten million on it. Then, he asked, “Is this enough?”

Felicia took over the check and pretended to be ecstatic. “Yes, it is. Thanks!”

In fact, money was not that important to her. The Ashton family was not short of cash either.

However, she had to make it seem like she was short of money, which was why she acted so excited in front of him.

After saying that, she got up and was about to leave, but she was suddenly reminded of something else. “Patrick, will we still get to work together in the future?”

Patrick stared at Felicia. Although Gwendolyn did not like her, Felicia was still kind of useful to him right now.

After all, Hector was not in excellent health, and Patrick needed Felicia to help him complete this act. “Of course. The contract is a year, and I'm yet to terminate the contract.”

He could not agree to proceed with an engagement with her, but he could still let her become his fake girlfriend to deceive Hector.

Felicia smiled. “All right. Patrick, I look forward to working with you!” She waved at him and added, “I have to go now. There's a new bag coming in today, and I have to get it.”

She hurriedly left the office, making it seem like she was rushing to get her hands on the new bag.

As Patrick watched her leave, his expression suddenly turned cold.

He took his phone and texted someone: Keep an eye on Felicia and tell me where she is going.

Arriving downstairs, Felicia got out of the elevator and saw two elegant-looking ladies seated on the couch. They were wearing the trendiest coats of the season.

Both were scrolling through Twitter on their phones, and they only raised their heads when they heard Felicia's high heels clicking on the floor.

“Fel, did he give you an explanation?”

Felicia waved the check to them and said, “Patrick told me he doesn't feel like being tied down by marriage, but he did tell me his love for me is genuine. So he gave me this ten million check to make it up to me.”

Adeline took over the check and saw Patrick's signature on it.

Denise also took over the check and exclaimed, “Wow! It must feel amazing to have such a great boyfriend! This is ten million! I wish I could find someone like him.”

Felicia snatched over the check and stuffed it inside her purse. “He is mine, so the both of you can dream about having him as your boyfriend.”
