True Love Waits

Chapter 22 Carlos Knew The Truth

Emitting arrogance, Carlos refused to grab the drink. Marvin Li, however, didn't dare to force him, feeling his menacing aura. He could only force an awkward smile and gave him the contract he had prepared. While Carlos was reading the contract, his brows furrowed. After a couple of minutes, he stood up and threw the contract on the table. "I won't sign the contract," he said coldly.

After hearing this, Marvin Li got anxious and argued in an instant, "Mr. Huo, as per our last conversation, you agreed to..."

However, even before he could continue, Carlos interrupted him in an icy tone, "Marvin Li, do you think I'm that stupid? The content of this contract is clear to me. Did you really think that I would fall into your trap?"

Surprised by Carlos' words, he started having cold sweat.

With a pale face, Marvin Li thought to himself, 'Did he find out the trap hidden in the clauses? How's that even possible?'

Without a word, Carlos walked towards the door. In an instant, Emmett pulled the door open for him.

Looking at Carlos' back as he took his leave, Marvin Li exclaimed, "Mr. Huo, please wait. This is only a misunderstanding!" He tried to follow behind Carlos in an attempt to make him stay. On the other hand, Carlos ignored his plea and left without looking back. He went to the underground park and stopped halfway as he heard an alluring sound. Immediately, he changed his direction and walked towards the entrance of the club.

Under a big tree, about several hundred meters away from the Orchid Private Club, a girl was seen singing a beautiful, sad song. "Just one last dance, before we say goodbye..." her song continued playing. When Emmett recognized the singer, he widened his eyes to plates, his jaw slack. 'Since when did Mrs. Huo start to make a living as a street singer?' he thought.

When Marvin Li noticed that Carlos seemed to be interested in the female singer, he thought he had a chance to fawn on him. He took out a thick wad of notes from his briefcase and threw it into the iron box in front of Debbie.

After seeing the amount of money he just threw, Debbie stopped singing, shocked by the impressive amount of thousands of dollars.

Everyone looked at Marvin Li, who put on a proud smile and demanded in an arrogant tone, "Sing a song for our Mr. Huo. If you can make him smile, I'll give you more money."

Hearing his words made her fuming mad. The fat man's words came as an insult for her.
