Billionaire Fall in Love with Me after ONS

Suzanne panicked and hurriedly took a step back. She seemed to have forgotten that she was wearing a pair of high-heeled shoes. She staggered to the side and her petite body was about to fall.

Edwiin stretched out his long arm and held her waist tightly with his big hand.

“Thank you,” Suzanne said softly. Pushing him away with both hands, she tried her best to stand firm with an awkward expression on her face.

After taking a deep look at her, Edwiin turned to Miss Duncan and asked lightly, “Aren’t you working with a jewelry brand called Portsmouth? Can you get in touch with their design director?”

“Yes. However, the Portsmouth branch only has one branch in Cherry City. It’s not anywhere else.”

Miss Duncan said apologetically, “Mr. Morrison, it’s very difficult to get the design director here. Why don’t you go to Cherry City and have a look when you have time?”

Edwiin frowned unhappily.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

The dinner party was in three days, so he had to get everything ready before that. But he was so busy these days that he couldn’t go there to choose the jewelry in person.

“It’s all right.” Suzanne broke the awkward atmosphere in time. She smiled at Edwiin and said in a nervous voice, “Edwiin, it’s all right. I still have a few sets of jewelry with me.”

She felt uncomfortable just by wearing this advanced customization evening gown, as if she would be robbed at any time. If she put on a set of jewelry worth millions of dollars, it would make her even more flustered.

“Your requirements are just that low.” Edwiin gave her a deep look.

Those who could attend such international dinner parties were all rich and powerful people. Debutantes wished they could wear the most luxurious things on their bodies and take the opportunity to attract the attention of those rich young masters and other guests. She was different from them. She didn’t want anything.

Suzanne smiled awkwardly.

She had never been interested in that kind of banquet. If it weren’t for the fact that Afra Morrison had asked her to go, she wouldn’t have been willing to go. Standing in high heels for a few hours was so tiring.

Later, she went to the dressing room to change into the evening gown. When she put on the comfortable flat shoes, she felt that she was much shorter. This contrast made her very depressed.

Edwiin had already paid the full payment of this advanced customization evening gown, so when he came to fetch it today, he only needed to sign his name on the counter before leaving with Suzanne.

On the way home, Edwiin didn’t speak, and so was Suzanne.

However, the atmosphere in the car was so oppressive that Suzanne wasn’t used to it. After a moment of hesitation, she said in a low voice, “Edwiin, did Vito go to your company in the afternoon?”

Edwiin narrowed his eyes and said, “What’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing,” Suzanne said as she lowered her head.

It turned out that it was Vito. What was he doing at Morrison’s Group?

“Do you want to know why he came to me?” Edwiin asked.

Suzanne was shocked and thought to herself in bewilderment. Was she obvious? How could he see through me in such a short time?

“He has a project and he wants to work with me.”

Edwiin’s voice sounded indifferent, and his face was expressionless. “My company can’t take over this project, but I helped him find another company that can cooperate with him.”

Suzanne was a little embarrassed. She didn’t believe that he, who had always followed the principle of “I’ll do anything for the benefit” to do business, would give such a good thing to others.

When Edwiin saw her expression, he sneered. “You don’t believe me at all.”

“No.” Suzanne waved her hand and looked embarrassed. She didn’t know how to explain.

“Don’t worry. I’m not that heartless,” Edwiin said. “Although he cheated on you, he has been taking care of you for four years. I can only help him this once.”

“Really?” Suzanne was surprised.

She knew that he was the kind of person who would not give up until he completely achieved his purpose, so she was very afraid. Vito and she used to be lovers. She still had affection for Vito and didn’t want Edwiin to hate Vito deeply.

Hearing this, she heaved a sigh of relief.

At 6:30, they returned home.

Afra had already prepared the dishes. When she saw them return, she asked them to wash their hands, and then she went to the kitchen to bring the dishes out. The whole family sat at the table.

Knowing that Edwiin had bought Suzanne’s evening gown, Afra smiled and praised him repeatedly. She was very satisfied. “You’ve done something satisfactory as an elder brother.”

“It’s such a grand dinner party. Others will look down on her if she doesn’t dress well.” Edwiin took a bite of the rice and said indifferently, “How can Morrison’s family be looked down on?”

“I agree.” Afra nodded. Then she pushed Frederic Morrison beside her with some dissatisfaction and glared at him. “Did you buy me a dress?”

Frederic’s face was full of helplessness. How did the topic change to him?

“I’m too busy, aren’t I?” Although the corporation was handed over to Edwiin, Frederic was in charge of the small companies with some connections, for fear that Edwiin would be too busy to manage them.

“When I’m done with work, I’ll promote a few people and let them take over,” Edwiin said in a soft tone. Obviously, he didn’t want his father to be so tired. “It’s time for you to retire.”

“It doesn’t matter.” Frederic chuckled and said, “If you really care about me, please find a capable wife. Your wife and you can manage the company together, and then I can retire with peace of mind.”

Suzanne lowered her head and bit her chopsticks. She found that as soon as Frederic finished speaking, the man opposite her became colder. He didn’t seem to like this topic.

Afra was also shocked. She pinched Frederic’s waist with her hand, warning her husband with her eyes.

Edwiin didn’t like them talking about this topic. He didn’t go home for a month because of this topic, and now Frederic was bringing it up again. Was he trying to drive his son away?

Frederic felt pain from being pinched. It was not until he received Afra’s warning that he understood.

“Well, it doesn’t matter if there is nothing you like,” Frederic quickly said, fearing that his wife would vent anger. “Don’t worry, I can work hard for a few years.”

“Dad, don’t talk about this anymore,” Edwiin said flatly, and he was not very angry this time.

He wiped his mouth with a napkin next to him to show that he was full and went straight upstairs.

Afra was angry. After Edwiin went upstairs, she patted Frederic hard and said, “Why are you talking about this? If he is not back home because of anger, I will not forgive you!”

“I’m doing this out of kindness.” Frederic felt a little wronged. “Look, others were married for someone of his age, but he doesn’t even have a girlfriend. As his father, it’s not wrong for me to care about him.”

“I’m not in a hurry. What are you doing?” Afra glared at him. “With our generous offer, Edwiin can find a girlfriend even at the age of 30. Are you afraid that no girl will marry him?”

“Okay, okay, I’m not in a hurry.” Frederic quickly apologized.

Suzanne watched from the side as they played and couldn’t help laughing secretly. She felt warm in her heart, feeling that it was better to go home often. It was so warm.

After dinner, she chatted with Afra for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, she was ready to leave.

“Aren’t you staying here for the night?” Afra asked unhappily, “Didn’t Edwiin ask you to rest for a few days? Are you going back to sort out the materials again?”
