Love After One-night Stand with CEO novel Chapter 99

After her afternoon nap, Rosa went to the market to buy a lot of ingredients.

Their new home was very close to the supermarket which was really convenient.

She didn't have to go to school these few days.

So she bought more than usual.

The landlord also left them a small refrigerator, which was enough for them to use.

Cecil was feeling better. He went on his computer to pick up where he left off.

Only then did he realise that there were a lot of comments on his novel.

They were all asking why he had stopped updating.

There were even editors who tried getting in touch with him, telling him that his work was worth publishing.

Cecil was over the moon, and so he got in contact with the editor.

Rosa did not disturb him and prepared their meal.

When Cecil came out of the room again, he was smiling from ear to ear.

He told Rosa about the good news.

Hearing this, Rosa opened a can of beer to celebrate.

Cecil couldn't drink alcohol, so he got some other beverage.

"Sister, why did you buy beer?" Cecil asked as he watched her take a sip, finding it odd.

Rosa was stunned and hurriedly replied, "There was a special offer at the supermarket today. Spend 50 dollars and you get a free can of beer!"

"Don't drink too much!"

Rosa chuckled and said, "How could I get drunk from such a small can?"

Seeing the size of the can that was smaller than Coca-Cola, he agreed with her words.

It should be fine to drink once in a while.

After all, today was indeed worth celebrating.

After the meal, Rosa felt a little dizzy.

But she didn't pass out drunk and insisted on doing the dishes.

"Cecil, help me with the dishes first... I'll lie down for a while..."

She seemed to be stammering her words.

"Alright!" Cecil answered.

After he was done with the dishes, he went to her room to check on her and noticed she had fallen asleep.

Her face was completely flushed.

Cecil was speechless. She was obviously drunk.

"Oh well, she should have a good rest!" He thought.

Cecil covered her with a blanket and noticed the phone beside her.

She had been using this phone for years, and it was still the older models.

Sometimes it would lose signal, and sometimes it wouldn't stop ringing after someone called. 

In order to let her rest well...

Cecil turned off her phone.

Then, he returned to his room to rest.

At the nightclub in R City...

"Look, Mr. Lewis, aren't you here to have fun? Are you... not satisfied with them?"

In their largest private room, there were more than 20 young women standing in the room.

There were pure-looking, sexy, feisty, and innocent ones.

In short, no matter what kind of women one was interested in...

They would be able to find her here.

Henry sat on the sofa and never looked at the row of women.

It was as if those women were mere decor.

Although he thought so...

But those girls had a different idea in mind.

The guests here were all people of high society.

Seduce any one of them and they would have more than enough wealth and glory.

Moreover, the man who came here today was gorgeous.

All the women were already attracted to him who was sitting silently without him saying a word.

"Mr. Lewis, are you not satisfied with them? That's alright. I can find better ones!" Mr. Richmond said with an apologetic smile.

This time, his partner was a major shareholder.

The chairman said that he must do his best to meet his requirements.

He didn't dare to offend this giant prize.

So he specially booked such a large room and invited more than 20 of the best women.

But he never expected this man to not even spare a glance at them since they entered the room.

The man's eyebrows had been furrowed all the while.

He stared at his phone. He had sent three text messages in a row.

Why hadn't she reply him?

"Mr. Lewis..."

Mr. Richmond called carefully.

Henry was a little depressed. He couldn't help but pick up his phone and made a call.

When Mr. Richmond saw him on his phone, he immediately lowered the volume of the music to the lowest level.

It was so quiet that they were able to hear the women breathing.

"The number you dialed has been turned off!"

Turned off?

"That girl turned off her phone?"

Henry's face suddenly darkened.

Mr. Richmond broke out in cold sweat after seeing his expression.

What happened?

Even the best women had failed him?

"Uh... Mr. Lewis, most of these women are still in school, they aren't as experienced..."

"Is Mr. Pearce certain that he can arrive at morning tomorrow?"

The man interrupted him and asked while frowning.

Mr. Richmond was stunned. He smiled apologetically and said, "Yes, the chairman said that he would definitely return before lunch tomorrow morning. The chairman is already over 50 years old. His mother's illness is quite severe so he was quite worried about her. This was why he had you wait for a long time. Otherwise, how would he not escort you personally?"

"Tell your chairman that if he doesn't return before 10, the contract will be canceled!"

He stood up as soon as he finished speaking.

"Mr. Lewis, are you..."

"Time is of the essence. Mr. Richmond should know this better than I do!" Henry suddenly became upset.

Mr. Richmond nodded and said, "Yes, yes, Mr. Lewis, don't worry. I will definitely inform Mr. Pearce."

Then, Henry walked outside.
