My Super Sassy Dad: Stop Running Away, Mrs. Quinn!-Chapter 267: You Can Play Whatever You Like
"So Jared actually brought a woman to keep him company?" The men looked knowingly across the table. Their movements just now were quite suggestive, adjusting ties and belts.
"Compared to Jared, we seem to be rather restrained. Looks like we should call a few to keep us company too."
"Up to you," Jared appeared somewhat indifferent.
The partnership with these people had lasted two to three years, and they all knew he didn’t like women, so they wouldn’t call women during discussions. But this time, he brought a woman.
The men across the table instantly started to embrace women on both sides.
"Come, come, this watch is for you," a man teased the woman beside him. The woman saw the valuable watch and quickly accepted it, snuggling up to the man coquettishly. Melody Thorne turned her head and pinched Jared’s waist, "When exactly are we leaving?"
She didn’t like places like this. The smell of smoke, perfume, decadence—all kinds of unpleasant scents were mixed together.
Jared tilted his gaze and pulled her closer, "Stay a while longer."
The women across the table occasionally glanced in Jared’s direction. A handsome, cold, and wealthy man could easily catch a woman’s eye, but they all knew he was beyond their reach.
Still... 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
One of the women’s gazes landed on Jared, sweeping over his tie, shirt...and belt...
Then she noticed the belt’s brand... The women wondered if they were mistaken. This brand...
It didn’t seem like a big brand, something any common wealthy merchants could afford...
Melody reached for the cherries on the table, wanting to eat them, but she wore a mask, which made it inconvenient. Seeing those women’s eyes fixed on Jared’s belt, she smiled,
and sassily spoke up, "Stop looking, you’re definitely not mistaken, it’s not a big brand."
She was short on cash before, so when buying things for Jared, she couldn’t afford anything expensive and settled for what she could afford.
"You... You..." Timothy Lockwood finally saw the belt on Jared’s waist, practically dropping his jaw. What kind of person was Jared? If he stomped his foot in Stellaria, it would surely cause a tremor. How could he wear something like that?
Didn’t he care about his reputation? It was completely out of line with his status and position.
"Where did you buy it from?" Timothy’s eye twitched, key being Troy was wearing it, and seeming completely unfazed.
"Probably from the mall on Eastgate..." Melody replied casually.
Timothy "..."
The women in the room stared at Melody in disbelief.
"No matter," Jared casually wrapped his arm around Melody, "just buy whatever you like next time."
It was his first time wearing something bought by someone else; previously, everything had been tailor-made by top designers and sent to the Quinn Family.
"No time."
Timothy "... Sister-in-law, that’s a bit too much."
Timothy should have kept quiet. When he spoke up, Melody’s eyes immediately locked onto him. This bastard dared to rat her out!!!
"Want to play cards?" Jared suggested, afraid she’d get bored.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, come on, let me accompany you for a few rounds," Timothy eagerly sat down upon hearing this.
The other men joined in too. There was already a heap of cards on the table from a previous game, and plenty of cash.
"No, the winner doesn’t get any good rewards anyway," Melody said sulkily.
Jared lowered his eyes to look at her mischievous gaze, and a slight smile tugged at his lips as he said lightly, "You can play whatever you want."
