Forced to Marry a Female Billionaire CEO-Chapter 37 - Heartache

Beside Cara, a pretty white-collar worker dressed in an OL suit was holding an umbrella for her.

Behind her, two men in Armani suits chased Cara with two documents, shouting, “Miss Williams, this…”

As for the employees who saw Cara Williams come out, some of them stopped and stared at her with admiration in their eyes; some of them called out to Miss Williams, and some even bowed.

Cara Williams turned a deaf ear to all of them and walked out.

The white-collar worker holding the umbrella for her frowned and said, “Miss Williams has to rest at noon. We can talk about it in the afternoon.”

Then…

The white-collar worker turned to Cara and said, “Miss Williams, the car has already come out of the parking lot. Please wait a moment.”

“It’s okay.”

Cara waved her hand.

Seeing this scene, Cole Stone was stunned…

In her red dress, Cara just stood in the crowd. She did not do anything else, yet she had already become the most eye-catching person.

Like a dazzling pearl!

Her beauty was incomparable.

Cole bitterly smiled. He was not even as rich as these people, let alone Cara Williams, the most dazzling pearl in Sky City.

How could any man not feel inferior at this moment?

She was as bright as a pearl.

And he was as dark as dust.

Just then…

Cara’s gaze swept over him.

Cole’s heart tightened. Although he knew that it was impossible, he still instinctively looked forward to that…

He hoped that Cara Williams would respond to him with her eyes at this moment.

However, Cara glanced over.

As if there was nothing…

He looked away! f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

Cole’s heart ached.

The sun was hot, but his heart was cold.

He knew that an insurmountable gap separated the two of them.

The scene of them having dinner together last night seemed to have given Cole a fantasy.

But at this moment.

His fantasies had been wiped out.

Cole mocked himself. Isn’t this what I wanted?

Cara soon disappeared from his sight.

He sighed.

“As expected, they all said that the president of the Williams Corporation is gorgeous. Now that I look at it, she really lives up to her reputation.”

“She’s much prettier in person than in photos.”

“I wonder which bastard is so lucky to be with Cara Williams.”

These were all chatter from the delivery men.

Cole was in no mood to listen anymore. He was in a daze.

Just then…

His phone vibrated.

Cole suddenly perked up. Could it be Cara?

His anticipation came out of nowhere.

However, it was as if the person who had fallen into the water was trying to grab onto the last straw.

When he opened the phone, Cole’s expression darkened again.

It was an unknown number.

But Cole could tell who it was.

“Mr. Stone, please go to the corner at your eleven o’clock and bring me what you want to give to Miss.”

It was Hugh Williams.

Cole Stone sighed. What was I expecting?

Carrying the lunchbox, he walked toward his eleven o’clock.

In a corner where no one was paying attention…

“Uncle Hugh, sorry to trouble you!”

Cole handed Hugh his lunchbox.

“Okay!”

Hugh smiled.

“By the way, Uncle Hugh, did you make the call about what happened in the parking lot just now?”

Cole asked another question.

If it were not Cara Williams who had called, it could only be Hugh Williams.

After all, in the entire Williams Corporation, only Cara and Hugh knew Cole. When Hugh Williams heard this, he smiled. “It was me. Miss happened to let me follow Chris down.”

Hearing this, Cole suddenly understood.

That was the only possibility.

No matter how capable Cara was, it was impossible for her to detect him immediately when Chris was targeting him.

“Alright, Uncle Hugh! I’ll go back first. Sorry to trouble you!” After getting his answer, Cole said goodbye.

His gaze was downcast.

At that moment, Cole felt an indescribable pain in his heart.

Seeing this, Hugh realized something, but he did not say it out loud. Instead, he nodded. “Okay, see you next time.”

“Okay.”

Cole turned to leave.

Looking at Cole’s back, Hugh took out his phone and smiled.

Cole was in a daze on the way back.

His mind was filled with Cara’s gaze that had swept past him but treated him like air.

There were no unnecessary emotions.

It was as if he did not exist in her eyes.

Cole sighed at the thought.

“Don’t think too much.”

He shook his head.

Wasn’t this what he wanted?

Cara did not care about him. She would be able to get rid of him later.

Naturally, there was no need to consider getting engaged. However, he could not help but feel frustrated.

Just then…

His phone suddenly vibrated again.

A message arrived.

Cole picked up the phone and opened the message.

“Cole, I’ll wait for you at Phoenix River Restaurant. If you don’t come, I’ll go to your house and cause trouble every day.”

It was an unfamiliar number.

However, Cole was very familiar with this tone.

It was Flint Smith.

Even after Cole had blocked his number, Flint had changed his phone number and called him.

Cole’s face darkened.

His originally frustrated mood immediately became worse.

***

Phoenix River Restaurant was a teahouse.

It wasn’t far from his neighborhood.

This might be a place Flint especially found after asking Jane.

Cole thought about it.

He then denied this guess. How could it be that Flint had chosen a teahouse close by just because he lived there?

In his opinion, Flint must have gone to his neighborhood and waited there. After he couldn’t find Cole, he decided that he might as well wait for him at the teahouse.

Ding!

The train had arrived at the subway.

Cole stood up and walked out of the subway station.

Outside the subway station, Phoenix River Restaurant was not far away.

***

Phoenix River Restaurant’s business was average.

It was a little cold.

Therefore, the moment he walked into the restaurant, Cole could see Flint Smith and Susan Collins in the corner.

He walked over to them and did not even sit down. He said coldly,

“What do you want?”

Flint’s and Susan’s faces darkened when they saw Cole.

Susan exploded because of Cole’s attitude. “What’s with your expression? I’m your elder. Don’t you know how to greet me?”

“You want me to chase you out with a broom again?”

Cole glared at her.

Susan was shocked.

Flint sinisterly smiled. “This is Phoenix River Restaurant, not your house. Don’t f*cking show off.”

“Hehe.”

Cole sneered.” Flint Smith, spit it out. I don’t have time to waste with you.”

“Okay.”

Flint glared at him. “I’ll cut to the chase. Give me back my ten thousand dollars.”

“Ten thousand?”

Cole immediately thought of the ten thousand dollars that Jane had transferred to him.

So it was to take Jane’s money back.

“If you want the money, tell Jane to come and get it herself.”

Cole sneered.

Not to mention that the money was his to begin with, it was impossible for him to return it.

Moreover, even if someone wanted to get back the ten thousand dollars, Jane would be the one to take it. What did it have to do with Flint?

In a way, Cole hated Flint more than Jane.
