Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 795:

After Connor posed his question, Burnet chuckled with an air of knowing amusement. He had already found out that Connor’s current wife was not Tiffany, as many presumed, and also deduced that Connor hadn’t won his wife’s heart yet.

Jamison, oblivious to the intricacies of Connor’s situation, looked at him quizzically. “Connor, isn’t your question a bit unnecessary? The line of women after you could stretch from one end of the city to the other. You don’t need to chase anyone. They come to you. Besides, aren’t you already married? And isn’t Tiffany famously smitten with you? It seems you wouldn’t need to lift a finger to win her over.”

Connor, unable to divulge the true nature of his marital situation, managed only an awkward cough in response. “I was just curious about how men typically pursue women,” he said, attempting to deflect.

Jamison laughed, believing him. “Why not ask Burnet? While I have my ways, I’ve never won the heart of someone as notable as the heiress to Minty Fragrances and Perfumes. Clearly, Burnet’s prowess in courtship surpasses mine.”

Proudly, Burnet smiled and raised his glass to Connor, basking in the acknowledgment of his romantic success.

However, Connor, already wrestling with envy and frustration, found Burnet’s smugness increasingly grating. With a dismissive snort, he retorted, “What Burnet did wasn’t romance. It was deception. Perhaps one day Miss Swain will realize this and leave him. I’m interested in genuine mutual love and commitment.”
