Madelyn had never thought the famous Kieran would ask to borrow only twenty from her.

Although she found it odd, she still granted Kieran’s request.

After rummaging through her branded handbag, she couldn’t find twenty. There were only bills of a hundred.

She froze as the room went silent for a few seconds.

An awkward smile surfaced on Madelyn’s countenance as Kieran gazed at her. “Please wait for a moment, Mr. Kieran.”

Kieran kept it in his pocket and said politely, “Thank you.”

Without delay, he left the residence and arrived at Yucca Delight as soon as possible.

How can I reasonably chase her fiancé away without making the situation awkward for everyone and then have a one-to-one conversation with her?

Thus, he decided to ask Treyton for advice again.

However, when he patted his empty pocket, he recalled not bringing his phone to make himself seem more pitiful. Great, now I can’t even call for help. Guess I’m on my own.
