Mr. Poker Face’s Sweetheart By Lee Dubois
Chapter 20

Chapter 20

Giselle guessed that Drago didn’t dare to continue the war because he didn’t know how rich Xeno was

Xeno had spent so much money in just a few minutes. Giselle even thought she would make enough money to buy a new house just tonight if Drago was

brave enough.

A house in a good area in Reywing cost at least one million dollars, and it would cost even more if Giselle bought a house in the downtown area.

Giselle knew she would never be able to afford a house in the downtown area. She would be satisfied if she could buy a house near the downtown area.

But she needed at least 300,000 dollars for the down payment, which was a reachless dream for most young people struggling for a living in Reywing.

But tonight, Giselle got much closer to the goal.

Xeno’s sentences were always brief. He texted some words before he disappeared. [Everyone must listen to Gill here. Those who wanna make trouble should win me first.]

Giselle wanted to pacify the atmosphere as soon as possible, so she didn’t talk about this matter anymore.

The room finally returned to peace.

After Giselle signed off at twelve o’clock at night, she sent Xeno a private message after hesitating for a long time.

It was the first message Giselle had ever sent to Xeno. [I think I should give you the money back. Please send me a bank account. I’ll return the money to you after the platform takes the share.]

Xeno didn’t reply to Giselle’s message. Perhaps he had fallen asleep.

Giselle sighed and had to talk to Xeno the next day.

She didn’t know who Xeno was, but she was scared that Xeno had spent money without hesitation.

Giselle couldn’t help thinking of Hymes sleeping downstairs when she thought of Xeno’s style of spending money.

Perhaps Hymes would be as prodigal as Xeno if Hymes also had a lot of money.

Giselle didn’t sleep well this night. As soon as she woke up the next morning, she checked her phone to see if there was a message from Xeno. However,

there wasn’t.

It seemed that she had to talk to Xeno tonight in the live stream room.

Hymes cooked breakfast as usual. When Giselle went downstairs, Hymes looked her up and down.

Hymes asked worriedly, “Didn’t you sleep well last night?”

Giselle answered, “No.”

“What happened?

“Nothing.”

It was hard to explain it, so Giselle had to keep it a secret.

Fortunately, Hymes didn’t ask more.

Giselle was in a complicated mood today. She put on a blue dress and tucked her hair up.

To cover the dark circles, Giselle put on heavy makeup, which made her look more attractive.

Chapter 20

Hymes tried so hard to withdraw his gaze. He said to Giselle after putting the plate on the table, “You should sleep earlier.”

“I get it. I will sleep earlier tonight.”

“Hymes, you…” When Giselle was hesitant about something, Hymes gazed at her.

Giselle swallowed her words and said, “Nothing. Do you have time tonight? One of my friends is back from a business trip. Would you like to have dinner

with us?”

There was a smile in Hymes‘ deep eyes. “Great.”

Hymes was happy to meet Giselle’s friends, because it meant that he would get closer to her world.

After breakfast, they were about to go out when Hymes suddenly fixed his eyes on Giselle’s fingers.

Giselle was confused. She asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Why don’t you put on the ring?”

“It’s so expensive. Forget it. What if I lose it?”

The ring was made by a worldwide famous brand with a huge diamond. It was eye–catching.

Of course, most people wouldn’t believe Giselle was wearing such an expensive ring. They would think it was fake.

In a hoarse and attractive voice, Hymes said, “You should put it on, since we have bought it. Don’t let it be covered with dust.”

“But…”

Giselle wanted to refuse, but she met Hymes‘ dangerous eyes as aggressive as a beast’s.

His eyes changed immediately, but Giselle still shivered in fear.

She thought she had an illusion.

“Put it on. You won’t lose it if you are careful enough. It’s not safe to leave it at home.”

Hymes said, “I bought it for you. If you don’t wear it, you’d better throw it away.”

Hymes‘ serious tone showed his bad mood.

Giselle realized that Hymes got angry because she had refused him many times.

To make peace with Hymes, Giselle had to agree, “Alright. I will wear it today. But if it troubles me in the company, I will leave it at home and put it on

when I have to, OK?”

Giselle blinked her eyes and tried to persuade Hymes in a soft voice.

Her efforts worked, and Hymes changed his mind.

Hymes sighed telplessly and finally gave in, “Alright. Have a try today.”

Giselle was sure that the expensive ring would trouble her in the workplace, so she would make an excuse tomorrow and leave it at home.

She went upstairs to take the ring and then put it on.

The ring made her slender and fair fingers more eye–catching-

When Giselle went downstairs, Hymes saw the bright ring on her fingers and smiled with satisfaction.

Looking at the smile on Hymes‘ face, Giselle decided to wear the ring today to make him happy.

Chapte? 20

After all… She had never expected that she would wear such an expensive ring one day.

When Giselle got to the company, she received a lot of praise again.

Even in the crowded elevator, a lot of men fixed their eyes on her.

Giselle liked wearing dresses. Her hot figure attracted a lot of people’s attention.

Many men used to be jealous of Mickey because Mickey could have such a beautiful girlfriend like Giselle.

Now the news about their breaking up had spread all over the building of Domino Media.

Almost all the men who had seen Giselle’s beautiful face thought Mickey was blind to break up with such a stunning woman. However, nobody had the courage to pursue Giselle.

Giselle was too beautiful. Most men would feel a sense of inferiority when they saw her. They didn’t think they deserved to be with such a gorgeous beauty.

What was more…

There was such a bright ring on Giselle’s finger, which made those men understand Giselle was already married.

It happened to be Friday. Mickey and Jenny told their colleagues in the office that they would hold a party after work in the Joyland Hotel which was the industry of Jenny’s family.

When Giselle came into the office, the colleagues were all talking about the party. Giselle’s appearance attracted everyone’s attention.

Jenny was jealous when she found that Mickey was also looking at Giselle. She invited Giselle with a fake smile, “Will you take your husband to join us?”
