Love Is Fair by Kerri novel Chapter 93

Ullapler 43 You Deserve it What a wonderful meal they had! They talked about the northern suburbs racecourse project and the details of the cooperation had basically been finalized. They decided to check how the project was going the day after tomorrow, since Owen would be discharged from hospital then. Hailey and Owen were about to leave after the meal. Looking at the bowls and plates in the scullery, Matthew shouted with his eyes widened, “Are you leaving? Leave all the bowls and plates to me?” How could they do this to him?

Turning back with a cold glance at Matthew, Hailey said, “Do you know how much a meal cooked by me will cost you? Matthew shook his head after a pause, “I don‘t know.” “Ten times the pay of Chef Clayton Are you okay with it?” Matthew sighed after thinking for a moment, “How expensive! But it makes sense. You deserve it.” Matthew was flattering Hailey with his thumbs up. Ignoring Matthew, Hailey continued, “I don‘t charge you for the meal you‘ve just had. Right?” “Nope.” Matthew shook his head. “That‘s it. So you‘re supposed to wash those bowls and plates, aren‘t you?” Hailey said. Matthew could say nothing to retort. What Hailey said seemed to make sense. Pointing at Owen, Matthew asked, “Why doesn‘t he need to wash the dishes?” Raising his eyebrows, Owen said, “I‘m badly injured. Do you think I can wash the dishes?” Matthew was totally speechless as he cast a glare at Chris and Jose. The two of them said immediately.

“We‘ll do it.”

Hailey stopped them and continued to ask Matthew, “They helped me when we were purchasing the food materials. Well, what did you do then?” “I...” “I just asked you to wash the dishes, but why do you keep complaining about it? If you don‘t wanna taste the food made by me in the future, feel free to say it out. And I‘ll ask the cleaner to take them away.” Hailey said impatiently. Hearing Hailey, Matthew relied at once, “Fine, fine. I‘ll wash them. I can do whatever you ask, including killing a chicken, as long as you‘re willing to cook for me later.” Was there anything to do with killing a chicken? Being puzzled, Hailey frowned. Owen explained it to her, “He‘s scared of chickens.” “You‘re scared of chickens?” Besides Hailey,

Chris and Jose were also so surprised at it as they even widened their eyes. Casting a glance at

Matthew synchronously, they said in one voice, “You‘re a special policeman, but you‘re scared of chickens?”

Matthew was teased by all of them and started to defend himself, “Why can‘t I? I‘m an ordinary person,

so why can‘t I be scared of anything? Have I broken law?” Owen added, “Besides chickens, he‘s also scared of ducks. I mean he‘s scared of any acutilingual animal.” Matthew shot a glare at Owen to let him shut up. “Well, he‘s right.” Hailey slightly pursed her lips with a twinkle in her eye. Looking at her, Matthew

skipped a heartbeat and felt like she was gonna set him up.

They went to the elevator after leaving the room. The elevator was open again as it was almost closed.

Looking up inadvertently, Hailey found a sexy lady with long hair stepping in the elevator. She wore a sun helmet low to cover her appearance, but it was still easy to recognize her beautiful face. She was Ashley Wilson, a super star. She was so popular now that her images could be found all over the city like on the screens and in the airport. So, almost all the people knew her. Ashley was surprised at seeing Owen in

the elevator, but she still greeted him with a smile, “Hello, Mr. Moore.” Owen didn‘t reply but turned to look at Hailey nervously. She had just got him wrong because of Ashley, so he didn‘t want it to happen again. Following Owen‘s gaze, Ashley also looked at Hailey. She suddenly paused and the smile on her face froze. “It‘s you.” Ashley‘s expression changed so fast, and her hostility towards Hailey was too obvious to ignore. Hailey was being indifferent with a frown, “Miss Wilson, do we know each other?” It was always easy for women to judge whether a person was a friend or an enemy from their vibe. However, Hailey couldn‘t tell whether Ashley was a friend or an enemy. Ashley seemed to have found herself overreacting. Pursing her lips, Ashley chilled herself out as she saw Owen subconsciously stand in front of Hailey with a cold glance at her. “You‘re so famous, Miss Newman. How could I not know you? But you aren‘t supposed to know me.” Hailey retorted in the same way as Ashley did, “You‘re so famous Miss Wilson. How could I not know you?” Hearing Hailey, Ashley shot a glance at her again with a complicated expression. Looking up and down at Hailey quietly, Ashley thought this Hailey didn‘t seem to be the one that guy mentioned to her. The elevator was going down quite fast. Chris and Jose were standing in silence while actually staring at Ashley with flushed faces. Ashley walked out of the elevator with a smile after its door was open. At this time, Hailey and Owen simultaneously reached out their hands and snapped their fingers in front of Chris and Jose respectively, “Stop staring at her. She has left.” Until then Chris and Jose could go back to themselves, but they were still excited. “Oh, my gosh. That was Ashley Wilson. I‘ve never thought I would see her in person and could take the same elevator with

her. It‘s like a dream.” Jose couldn‘t agree with Chris more and he kept nodding. “She looks even prettier than on TV. Right? I think she‘s the least photogenic among female stars.” “You‘re so right.” Chris totally agreed with Jose. “All the boys in my dorm downloaded a lot of her movies. She‘s like a goddess, a Miss Perfect. And she still looks that gorgeous after so many years.” “This is what a real goddess is supposed

to be. Time has made her even more feminine.” The two special assistants were talking about Ashley as they had already left their bosses behind. They didn‘t find anything wrong until they stopped at the car.

Looking back, they found Hailey and Owen staring at them seriously on the staircases with their arms

crossed. Hailey said in an indifferent tone, “I think I might find a new assistant.” Owen agreed with her, “Same

thing. Shall I recommend anyone to you?” “Yeah. I need a smart one, since the previous one is way too stupid.” “Mine is stupider. Shame on him.” Pursing their lips, both Chris and Jose lowered their heads and acted like humble. They invited Hailey and Owen to get on the car. When Hailey and Owen saw the same deferential look on the faces of Chris and Jose, the two of them couldn‘t help tilting their mouths. Hailey and Owen were both stunned when they found them share the same feeling, which they hadn‘t sensed earlier. They arrived at the hospital. Owen didn’t rush getting off the car when the door was open. Instead, he turned to Hailey and took out a ticket from his pocket. He officially made the invitation, “Hailey, the rose exhibition will be on three days later. Could you go with me?” Looking up to Owen after a glance at the red ticket, Hailey kinda skipped a heartbeat when seeing the twinkle and expectation in

Owen‘s eye.
