Chapter 61

After escaping into the restroom, Mikayla patted her blushed checks in front of the mirror. She had been in a relationship once but felt like it was her first time when dating Carlos, which was embarrassing. "What Are men's sweet words making you this shy? Winona walked into the dressing room and smiled viciously.

Mikayla glanced at Winona with a half-smile. "Didn't Jaxon usually tell you those, did he? If not, I don't mind letting you hear ours"

The words seemed to have touched Winona's nerves. Apart from work, Jaxon would immediately go to the study once he got home and only went to bed just before going to sleep. Hence, he couldn't have sail sweet words to Winona, and the only time he did was during their intimate

moment.

However, Winona couldn't possibly show it and restrained her emotions. "Jaxon is a well-educated man, so how can he simply talk about love every time! Only a ruffian like Carlos would keep sweet-talking as if he hadn't seen women for a long time."

"If a man called well-educated for jumping on women whenever he sees one, then I better choose a ruffian Mikayla shrugged indifferently, ready To bypass Winona and leave. She had no interest in such a meaningless conversation with Winona.

"I don't care who you choose, but Jaxon is mine! I hope you stay away from him" Winona proudly asserted her sovereignty

Mikayla turned around and sailed takely. "Didn't you see everything that night? He was the one who hugged me, reluctant to leave me as his ex"

Winona clearly saw her at that time but didn't even try to hide, showing that she did it on purpose.

"When it comes to scheming, 1 do have it, and I told you before too. It's just that I don't need to use it Mikayla approached her slowly

"You-"Winona was forced to the sink, with no way out. For the first time, she felt Mikayla was truly terrifying

"Originally, I wanted to tell you one more thing, but I was worried you couldn't bear it, so let's forget it. We can talk about it next time" Mikayla looked down at Winona's belly, and her eyes softened. After all, there's a lovely life in your belly, isn't there?"

"What are you up to Winona glared at her.

"Nothing, Just don't be too pretentious sometimes. He a good model for your child." Mikayla didn't bother to tell her more.

Looking at Mikayla's slim back, Winona clenched her fat. "Mikayla you can't even get your loved one to stay, so what night do you have to fight

She took a deep breath and suppressed her anger, feeling a dull pain in her stomach but only for a moment. She stood up straight and looked at her beautiful face in the mirror, thinking that she was no worse than Mikayla

Meanwhile, Jason's mind had already drifted away, and after a while, he got up and headed toward the neighboring table, asking condescendingly. "Carlos, right!"

This was the second time he had seen Carlos. Last time, he didn't know who he was and was intimidated by his aura. However, he knew his identity this time and wanted to take revenge for the embarrassment from last time. Ahhough Hugo had warned him to stay away from Carlos, Jaxon didn't believe that Carlos, who had returned from a military base after staying there for several years, would be better than him

Carlos shook the half-full wine glass and slowly drank the wine. His sexy Adam's apple bobbed, and his lips pursed lightly as he raised his glass to Jason. The wine sparkled with charming colors under the light, but Carlos didn't utter a word.

To Jaxon, the action was a silent provocation. "Carlos, I don't care who you are, but don't think you can win Mikayla's heart just by saying a few sweet words. Let me tell you, Mikayla and I are childhood friends. We've been friends for more than 20 years-"

"So, everyone in the Lindstrom family has the same hobby, always greedy for more, huh?" Carlos voice sounded drunken as he interrupted Jaxon's unfinished word

Jaxon shouted, "Mikayla is mine in the first place!"

Carlos raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Are you drunk? Mikayla's name can only be on the marriage certificate with mine. It's none of your business,

*You think Mikayla will fall in love with you this quickly? She's just trying to make me angry!" Carlos' words truly infuriated Jaxon, but his manners were telling him that he shouldn't lose his temper at this time. "Are you sure you still have a place in her heart?" As if he was talking to himself while sipping his wine, Carlos didn't take jaxon's provocation seriously at all.

Jaxon naturally understood what that meant. He originally wanted Carlos to back down, but the latter wasn't worried at all. Being surrounded by Chapter 61

people admiring him since childhood, Jaxon felt like he was being trampled on now. "Here's a final warning, you can't afford to mess with my

womant

Carlos tilted his glass forward slightly, Jaxon looked in that direction and caught a glimpse of Mikayla coming over. After taking a deep look at Carlos arlos indifferent appearance, he sat back at his table.

Mikayla walked closer and naturally saw Jaxon standing at her table just now. She looked into Carlos gray eyes and asked, "What did he say to you?"

"Nothing important. Carlos raised his glass. "Have some wine. It's Kashton's private collection. The taste's not bad"

Mikayla looked down, not believing in him. However, she believed that he was more than capable of dealing with Jaxon

"If Kashton knows your evaluation, I'm not sure if he'll be luppy or sad Mikayla clinked glasses with Carlos and took a small sip, thinking that the wine tasted really nice. She wondered how Kashton would feel if he saw them drinking his wine

"Consider it as a wedding gift from him in advance," said Carlos, seemingly sounding quite aggrieved. Mikayla thought he was the one she couldn't see through instead.

Carlos wiped the wine stains on his mouth elegantly. "Have you done eating!"

"Yeah," Mikayla responded.

"Staff, the bill, please Carlos voice sounded mellow.

"The bill, please." Jason also uttered at the neighboring table. Include the bill of the next table too"

Mikayla frowned, wondering what Jaxon was up to. However, Carlos raised his eyebrows and blurted out indifferently and mockingly. "Staff, please also include this vintage wine in that gentleman's bill."

He hugged Mikayla and said seriously, "Mika, we've to save as much as we can, right? After all, this wine cost almost 160 thousand dollars. It's not easy to make money."

Mikayla smiled charmingly, "You're right. Thank you, gentleman at the next table, for paying our bill"

Looking at Carlos' scheming behavior, Mikayla really wanted to see Jaxon's gloomy face. At that moment, Jaxon indeed looked upset, feeling like he was shooting himself in the fool
