Rose with Thorns

Chapter 10

The WhatsApp text from Wilson read, “Don’t forget you still owe me a meal”

As Yvette read it, she couldn’t help picturing, Wikon flirtatiously and arrogantly smirking. She pursed her lips while typing a simple “okay” and sent it to him. At the same time, she changed his contact name to “Womanizer”

Wilson sat in the main seat at Royal Pavillion. His devilishly handsome face was devoid of emotion. He also radiated an overbearing presence, deterring others free dating to approach him.

The women around him dared not get too close, regardless of how infatuated they were with him.

“What’s this? Who’s angered our esteemed Mr. Quinn this time?” A sing–song voice rang out before a charming man entered the private

That man, Collin Steele, didn’t wait for Wilson to respond. Instead, he continued, “Don’t tell me you’re frustrated because your grandma is nagging at you to get married again.”

He knew that apart from Martha, those who could piss Wilson off in Jubilife City were already long buried in their graves.

Wilson’s otherwise beguiling eyes that could hook anyone in narrowed dangerously. Even his voice lost all warmth as he spoke. “Thane no fiancée Don’t ever let me hear that word from your lips again.”

Collin smirked at this. “Mr. and Mrs. Murray are renowned for being beautiful people in high society. Their genetics can’t be that bad. If you ask me, I bet their daughter will be just as attractive as they are. Are you sure you’ll cancel the marriage arrangements without even meeting the girl?”
