Forbidden Passion

Chapter 680 Owe Him a Lifetime!

Outside the restaurant, Theodore leaned against a pillar, messing around on his phone. Wesley stood next to him, sneaking glances every now and then.

Lately, Wesley had been at the company and knew Theodore was chasing after Phoebe, sending her flowers and snacks every day. He didn't expect the big-shot CEO to be so blunt and old-school about it. "Why are you still here?" Theodore's deep voice broke Wesley's thoughts.

Wesley scratched his head. "Waiting for Ms. Ziegler."

"You're not famous yet. No one's gonna recognize you on the street. Just call a cab and head home," Theodore said, sounding cold.

Wesley felt a sting from those words.

"I'll be famous soon. Then I'll be a big deal at Superstar Entertainment and make a ton of money for Ms. Ziegler," Wesley said, his face flushing.

Theodore gave him a cold look. "Do you like her?"

Wesley panicked, not wanting Theodore to see him as competition. He quickly shook his head. "Ms. Ziegler is beautiful. Everyone at the company likes her. I'm no different, but it's not the same as your feelings." The coldness in Theodore's eyes faded. "Call a cab and go. Stop playing dumb."

"Who's playing dumb?" Wesley's face turned red with embarrassment. He bit his lip. "I just wanted to say goodbye to Ms. Ziegler."

"I'll tell her," Theodore said indifferently.

Wesley was left speechless.

Seeing Theodore's growing impatience, Wesley turned and walked into the night.

He wasn't scared of Theodore; he just didn't want to cause trouble for Ms. Ziegler.
