Chapter 131

“Burp… You really are a little scroundell” Chloe blushed and smiled happily.

The man smiled coldly, his left arm still hooked around her slender waist. With his slender middle finger, he pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose.

This nickname was from long ago.

Even his father didn’t refer to him by that name. He hadn’t anticipated that Chloe was still as wild and untamed as a wild horse, just like when she was a child.

“In the blink of an eye, it’s been fifteen years since I last saw you. You’re still as gorgeous as ever.”

Chloe was so inebriated that her mind was a jumble. She couldn’t recall what she had said, let alone remember his name.

“My name is Jerome Xavier, but it doesn’t matter if you refer to me as a little scoundrel”.”

The man’s fan-shaped long eyelashes fluttered, and he whispered in her ear, his voice slightly hoarse and low. “But only you can call me that,” he murmured.

Unfortunately, the words that reached Chloe, in her drunken state, became a jumbled code that she couldn’t make out clearly.

Jerome gently laid her fragile frame on the sofa, taking care to make each movement as delicate as possible.

His phone rang at that moment, and the secretary was on the line.
