True Love Waits

Chapter 185 I'd Rather Find A Boyfriend

Emmett told Kasie honestly, "I'm really fed up with blind dates. I can't stand them anymore. I'll send my father your pic and tell him we're dating. Then at some time in the future, I'll tell him we've broken up. Sounds good?"

"Get bent! You think I'm that desperate?"

Emmett stared at her, eyes wide. He really knew next to nothing about women. "But I'm not asking you to be my girlfriend. It's just... Ah screw it! Name your price," he offered, resignedly.

"Well, you buy me a bunch of roses, a handbag and some clothes. Do that, and you won't just get my pic, but we can take selfies together. Way more convincing. Okay?"

'What?! That's some serious time and money! This woman's gone too far! I'd rather find a boyfriend who can support me, ' Emmett cursed inwardly. But the more he thought about it, the better it sounded- Kasie's demands, not the boyfriend part. Maybe then his dad would get off his case. Despite his thoughts, he said through gritted teeth, "Deal! You're Mrs. Huo's friend, after all. I just need to make some arrangements and pay the bill here. Then we'll go to the mall."

He called the IT manager and assigned some tasks to him before leaving the cafe with Kasie.

After they arrived at Shining International Plaza, Kasie led Emmett to a store, picked up a handbag which she'd had her eye on for a long time, and put it in Emmett's hands. "Just buy this. I don't need roses or clothes."

The handbag stood out because of its strange shape. Emmett was a little shocked by Kasie's taste, but said nothing. He needed this, so he just went along with whatever she wanted. He took it to the cashier's desk, and much to his surprise, it only cost him around $200, 000. He had thought it would cost more than 1 million dollars.

Then he went back to Kasie and handed the well-packed handbag to her. She kissed the package cheerfully. 'He's not a bad guy at all. Even more generous than my dad,' she thought. "Hey, Mr. Zhong. If you buy me a handbag every month, I'll be your girlfriend," she offered.

"Really? A handbag a month is enough to buy you?" Emmett retorted, rolling his eyes. "I thought you loved Mr. Lewis Huo. What would he think? Do I look like a fool to you?"

With a serious look, Kasie explained, "Lewis? I broke up with him a long time ago. Besides, you do look like a fool to me..." If he wasn't a fool, then why would he buy such an expensive handbag for a woman he'd only met a handful of times?

It was the first time that Emmett had been called a fool, and he was hot with rage. He reached out his arm and put it around her neck as if he were going to strangle her. "Let's get a selfie together. My dad's already called a couple of times. I better send a pic to him."
