Lie Flat, Sugar Daddy novel Chapter 29

"Are you threatening me?" Jensen said coldly, sending a chill down Lola’s spine.

"It's not a threat. I just want to protect my family, and I promised you before. You are the one who betrays the faith, and I don't have to keep my promise." Lola straightened up her neck, fear growing in her heart. It was going to end badly if she tried to negotiate with Jensen, but her bargaining chip is the secret related to Rae. So she also believed that Jensen dare not take actions to take revenge on her.

No matter how strong a man was, he was still a person with weakness.

"I just say it once. I didn’t do it," Jensen said impatiently.

"Since you claimed that you didn't do it, it would be easy to find out who is behind it with your personal connection. I beg you to help me find out who is undermining Barnes Food Company. " Lola clearly did not believe what Jensen said. After all, no one had ever been hostile to Barnes except Jensen, and they must paid a large amount of money to destroy the contract they made with Barnes Food Company. Needless to say, the man behind the suppliers must pay for the damages.

Seeing that Jensen did not speak, Lola could feel his impatience from his frowned eyebrows. Lola raised his head and added, "I certainly will not let you help me with no benefit. As long as you do me the favor, I promise to treat Rae as my own daughter and make her happy." Lola was disgusted by her words. But it was better to pretend a loving mother in front of Rae than to watch Barnes collapse.

Jensen originally wanted to throw Lola out. But when hearing the exchange conditions, he instantly remembered the grievance that Rae showed him last time. She was deeply hurt by her mother. He was heartbroken to see her like this. Jensen only thought about half a second and said, "I hope you can do as you promised."

"I will. Thank you. " Lola turned around and was about to leave.

At this time, Jensen’s voice came in the back.

"Don't think there is a way to control me because I care about Rae. I want her to be happy and that will not be my weakness. Lola, if you dare to take this matter as a bargaining chip and negotiate again with me, you'd better learn how to live a life without legs." As Jensen finished, he took up a coffee cup and drank it.

Lola froze for a while and left.

It was horrible.

When Lola left, Jensen got a phone call from his grandma and he picked up it.

Matriarch's voice came from the phone, "Jensen, are you free in the afternoon. Go to the exhibition center with me."

...

"How long will you take, Rae!"

Darcy stood in Rae office, checking the watch from time to time.

"Wait a minute. Damn, I don't know which one to match. I’ll just take the original one." Rae tried to match her clothes with a white SLR, and finally she decided to bring the original one. After she made her choice, she got up and picked up her bag, and went out with Darcy. She complained, "Why are you in such a hurry. It’s just an exhibition."

"The ticket was sent to me by a rich man. He’s bad-tempered. I am afraid he will leave if we’re late too long. Darcy took Rae’s arm and went downstairs with her. She had a sense of dependence on her somehow. Darcy said, "It is so hard to get the ticket. I have spent a long time hanging out with the rich man before he say ‘yes’. 2 scalped, and super expensive tickets. It’ll be a pity if I miss it."

"Indeed, many tweets recently love to portray you as eye candy, and I don't know who wants to slander you. Seize this opportunity to take some photos about the exhibition and tweets them to public, maybe you can thwart their attempt." Rae said as she walked. Suddenly she thought of something and said, "Are pictures allowed to be taken in this kind of exhibition?"

"I don't know. Anyway, if it is prohibited, we won't do it. But we can take selfies at the door with tickets and tweet it out." Darcy said.

Rae found her car at the underground parking, and then they set out.

Darcy rarely had the chance to take a ride in Rae's car. This time, she was curious as she touched it and exclaimed, "Holy shit, Rae, you really earned much in marketing huh? The car must cost over 100 thousand I guess. Why do you choose Land Rover but not girl’s favorite?"

Rae ignored Darcy's first question. This car was a gift from Jensen, or else how could she afford it? At first he asked what she wanted, but she hesitated for a long time. She dreamed to travel around the world someday and she had studied and tried many cars, but she was still uncertain. However, when she saw this car in the shop at the first sight, she was so excited and then she told Jensen she wanted it! Although she was still far away from her dream, it was cool to have one at once.

"If I'm rich some day, I promise to take you to travel. Like drag racing on savanna" Rae changed the subject.

"Well, but remember not to scare my child then," Darcy said as she stroke her belly.

..."Rae held the steering wheel tightly and asked," You want to give birth to him?"

"Well, Rae, you are going to be a godmother!" Darcy smiled.

"Holy shit!" Rae said angrily. She was so anxious that she wanted to kick her ass! As Rae drove the car, she said with indignation, "Do you know what happened when Louisa got the accident? The investors were wrestle to change her roles! Do you know how hard I worked to persuade the investors to give you a try? Do you know you're going to get popular soon?! You know I'll loss a lot if you do this!"

Rae couldn’t bear to lose money. Although her marketing company was profitable, it took much money. It was not easy to support marketing accounts. And now she had a bunch of people here to be raised. Originally she thought about things would be better if Darcy get popular and made money. But the money and energy she had invested would be wasted because Darcy was about to be a mother. How is it possible?!!

Rae had a headache from anger. She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. She asked, "Why do you change your mind suddenly? You are like a child. Are you ready to be a mother? Ridiculous!”

"I don't know whether it's because I am pregnant, I started to notice a lot of things that I didn't notice before. Now I see many children and they are very cute. I wonder if my child is cute. " Darcy said gently as she touched her belly. Then she lowered her head and said to her unborn baby, "Don't be afraid, baby. Although your godmother’s words are mean, she’s so righteous. You must listen to her later."

"You..." Rae got furious. But she thought for a while before saying, "OK, I will take you to a place and break your unrealistic fantasy! Oh, cute little boy? Screw you.” Rae scolded in anger. Although she wanted to have children, she knew clearly the hardness of having a child. The point was that she knew her baby would be taken care by Jensen, and she didn’t need to do anything. Even if she left, she would not worry about money.

But Darcy, a single mother, could not be able to support herself, which was a bit unrealistic for her.

Besides, she was shortsighted. Rae was afraid that she would find that everything was not so good after the child was born and she would abandon the baby, which Rae believed she would do it!

Abandoned by mother.

Rae thought of herself, and she was more and more determined to stop it from happening.

Without speaking, Darcy stroke her belly and enjoy the joy of being a mother.

When they arrived at the Convention and Exhibition Center, Rae parked her car and got off. She saw Darcy running towards a car like a light butterfly. After that, Darcy lay on the car window, took the ticket in the car and kissed the man's face. They looked very close. Rae couldn’t believe that she wanted to be a mother. She was exactly not ready for it, Rae thought, and she turned her face away.

Darcy came back with two tickets in her hand and walked to the ground with Rae. "Rae, he said you were beautiful and he wants your phone number."

"You gave it?"Rae asked, raising her eyebrows.

"No, I won’t do it until I get tired of him." Darcy giggled.

"Tired for what, his money or his sperm?" Rae joked, and they came into the elevator together. It doesn’t matter about what to say with Darcy. After all, they were the same kind of person. But it was different when she was with Isabella, whom she had known for years. She had to pay attention to her words when she spoke to her. When one could not speak freely in front of a friend, it meant there must be problems.

Unfortunately, Joe didn't realize it earlier.

"You’re so filthy!" Darcy teased.

They didn't know that Karina helped Matriarch walk out of the corner when the elevator door was just closed.

Matriarch's face was full of anger, and she said hatefully, "Shame on her! What a ill-bred woman!”

"Grandma, don't get angry." Karina appeased the old man, and felt that the girl’s voice was familiar, but she didn't see her. She couldn't remember where to hear it. Seeing Matriarch was still unpleasant, she said, "Granny, if you are not happy, Jensen will think I get you angry. Cheer up. He is waiting us now."

Matriarch nodded, "You’re educated and knowledgeable. You are the best girl to marry Jensen."

"Granny." Karina smiled shyly.
