Chapter 1000
The man said a lot of words in one breath, and he was still jumping along with the music's rhythm, so he was panting as he spoke.
I didnโt really feel that great either. After not exercising for a long time, suddenly jumping around is really tiring. After a while, my back was all wet from sweating.
The man looked at me with a determined gaze, as if he was determined to become friends with me. I smiled politely at him and was about to say, โI was already married,โ when Vonnie suddenly bumped my arm and looked toward the bar counter, saying to me, โHey hey, your man seems to have arrived.โ
I was startled and followed her gaze, and sure enough, I saw Reynaldo. He was leisurely leaning back on the sofa, gently swaying a glass of wine in his hand. A pair of unpredictable eyes looked straight at me.
Itโs strange, why hasnโt Johnathan come? Reynaldo came running to catch me, and Johnathan didnโt even come to look for Vonnie? This is not scientific, is it?!
I asked Vonnie, โHas Johnathan come?โ
Vonnie shook her head, โIt seems like he didnโt come, probably waiting for me to go back and coax him.โ
I thought it was unlikely. Reynaldo came, and Johnathan didnโt seem like someone who could keep calm.
At that moment, the man who had just struck up a conversation with me looked Vonnie up and down. When he saw Vonnie wearing hot pants, exposing her white legs, he frowned and a hint of disgust flashed across his face.
Vonnie also noticed his gaze. She put her arm around my shoulder and said to the man, โDo you want to pursue my sister?โ
The man still smiled politely, even though he looked down on Vonnie for not being a proper girl. Faced with Vonnieโs question, he neither admitted nor denied.
Vonnie chuckled and said, โYou canโt flirt like this; my sister is really naive. If you donโt make it clear to her, she will really think you just want to be ordinary friends with similar interests.โ
When Vonnie said that, the man suddenly looked at me again, and there was a burst of gaze in his eyes, as if he was looking at prey, which made me quite uncomfortable. I pulled Vonnie off the dance floor.
Vonnie seemed to want to tease the man a little more. She hooked my shoulder and giggled at the man, asking, โCome on, do you want to pursue my sister?โ
โYes, this young lady looks like a well-behaved type, exactly the kind I like.โ
The man admitted without hesitation this time and then said to me, โI am a senior white-collar worker of a listed company, with considerable income. If you can marry me, I can add your name to the property deed after marriage. After getting married, you donโt have to do anything. You just need to take care of my parents, do the housework, cook for the family, and then work hard to give birth to a few chubby boys for me. And I promise to give you a monthly living allowance of five thousand; you just need to stay at home and enjoy yourself every day. I will support you.โ
Upon hearing this, Vonnieโs eyebrows visibly furrowed. She hugged me and asked with a smile, โRalda, what was the lowest salary for a housekeeper in Freybourne?โ
As soon as I saw Vonnieโs expression, I knew she was about to start mocking people. I laughed and said, โTen thousand, it seems to be the going rate. Our family servant was paid eighty thousand years ago.โ
