Becoming the Richest Man Alive

Chapter 18

Wh-wh-what does he mean?

Holding her phone anxiously, Giselle’s eyes glinted with mixed emotions. Casper’s words had caused her imagination to run wild.

Ever since she was young, she had heard similar compliments plenty of times. Logically speaking, she should have grown used to such remarks to the extent of being annoyed.

However, for some strange reason, she didn’t at all feel irritated by what Casper told her.

Instead, it felt exhilarating.

After all, she assumed that he didn’t know how she looked like. Or at the very least, he did not like her just because she was pretty.

Gigi: Stop talking nonsense.

After feeling uncertain for a long while, Giselle finally replied. Worried that he might misread the seriousness of her tone, she also included a pouting emoticon at the end of her sentence.

Casper responded: Nonsense? I’m not spouting nonsense at all. It certainly makes sense for me to like you since I’m a loyal fan of yours.

Casper smiled mischievously just as he replied her.

Could it be that you have misunderstood, my goddess?

Giselle was stunned having read the message along with a smiling emoticon at the end. A few seconds later, her cheeks were blushing red.

She wrote back: No, I didn’t! I’m going to bed.

Mr. Simpson: But it’s only eight o’clock!

Gigi: Can’t I already be sleepy?

Mr. Simpson: Okay, okay. (Sweating emoticon)

After replying to the last message, Casper chucked his phone aside. Lying on the bed with his hands outstretched, a wide grin emerged on his face.

“Ah! This is so embarrassing!”

Meanwhile, Giselle put her phone face down and buried her head in her pillow. After a long while, she cupped her chin with her hands while sprawling on the bed. Having stared blankly for more than ten minutes, she finally pick up her phone and made a call.

Ring… Ring…

The call quickly connected.

“Yo! If it isn’t Gigi the goddess! I wonder what she is calling me for?”

“Jane, it’s been a long while since I last saw you. Do you want to go out for a drink?” Giselle asked.

“What happened? Do you want to complain about Sawyer bugging you again?” Jane asked with resignation.

“It’s not him…”

Giselle wanted to explain further but changed her mind at the last moment.

“Fine. I’ll meet you at the usual place. I happen to be close by right now,” Jane quickly replied as if she could sense Giselle’s hesitation.

“Okay. See you in a bit.”

“See ya.”

As night fell, the Horington cityscape was illuminated by bright lights while its streets bustled with life.
