Chapter 74
“Why are you leaving so early? Let’s go for a midnight snack.”
“It’s too late. It’s time to head home to sleep.”
How was it late? It was just after nine!
Rafael was not at all reassured by Flors and Connor being together, He ignored Flora’s waming and turned to Connor. “Hey, are you coming or not??
Connor didn’t say anything. His slender fingers casually tapped on the steering wheel.
They ignored him, but Rafael didn’t feel awkward. He opened the car door, got out of the passenger seat, and tried to open the back door of Connor’s car.
It didn’t open
The two inside the car were unfazed.
“If I don’t get in the car now, I’ll be on the headlines once the fans catch up.” Rafael played the pity card. “Flora, do you have the heart?”
A hint of helplessness flashed in Flora’s eyes. She knew Rafael was worried about her.
She gave
Connor a look. Upon receiving her signal, Connor opened the back door Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Rafael immediately squeezed in, complaining. “This car is too cramped. I can’t even stretch my legs. How about we go to my car Instead?”
“If you don’t like it, get out. Don’t follow us
Knowing Flora’s character, Rafael didn’t continue on this topic but rather said with a chuckle, “Flora, I didn’t embarrass you just now, did
“You missed the beat in the ninth measure
Rafael grimaced; well, he still thought he danced pretty well.
Flora was indeed a bit hungry and casually chose a diner.
From the car to the diner, Rafael kept a watchful eye. If Connor made any overstepping move, he would leap out to break Connor’s hand! But throughout, Connor simply held Flon’s hand and was extremely considerate the entire way.
Given Rafael’s public profile, Flora chose the most secluded booth to avoid being recognized.
Flora ordered the food, choosing mostly dishes with mild flavors.
Rafael frowned upon hearing this “Flore, I thought you loved spicy food? Why go for something so bland?”
“My fiancé doesn’t eat spicy food”
The food arrived quickly. Flora had ordered shrimp, and Connor proactively put on gloves to peel them for her. Rafael watched the two interact so skillfully and affectionately and felt like he was force to watch live PDA.
After dinner, Flora went to the restroom.
Rafael finally found the opportunity to be alone with Connor. He leaned in, his voice deep and forceful. “I don’t know who you are, and I don’t know why you’re with Flora, but she’s not the kind of
woman you can just play around with.”
“If you’re just looking to have fun, better leave her now
Rafael’s eyes narrowed, losing a bit of the wildness and frivolity he had on stage. His gaze became serious and solemn.
Connor leaned back in his chair, his dark eyes fixed on him, his tone equally steady and forceful. “My intentions for Flora are serious. Considering you’re Flora’s friend, I let this go, but there won’t be a next time.”
Rafael felt an inexplicable sense of unease
Just then, Rafael’s phone rang. It was his agent, Devin
“I’m not going to that reality show, no way! I don’t care. You deal with it. I’m not going!”
The show’s director and Devin were sophewhat close and had been trying to invite Rafael as a guest. Rafael had politely refused several times, but the director kept insisting, And he was getting annoyed.
After heanng this, Connor casually picked up his phone and sent a message to Moss. Make sure Rafael attends the reality show. Whether it’s by financial means or pressure, figure it out.]
Moss: [What?]
