Rebirth: Clinging to My Possessive Magnate-Chapter 699: Save Me

Finally managing to appease someone, Sophie Wilson planned to go back to her room to surf the web before heading to bed.

She was only halfway there when Kai Bright mysteriously called her over, leading her into his room, asking, "Bro, are you doing something shady?"

He shut the door, even looking around cautiously before doing so, as if afraid of being seen.

Sophie deeply suspected, with Kai Bright’s flaky personality, could he really handle missions without issues?

"How am I doing something shady?" Kai huffed, rolling his eyes at Sophie, clearly using his eyes to accuse her of being a little ingrate, "I just found out what James Reed bought for Old Mr. Seymour."

"A painting?" Sophie scratched her head, asking, "Is it worth a lot?"

"The price is definitely not low, but more importantly, Old Mr. Seymour has always loved that artist’s work and has collected quite a few pieces at home," Kai explained, "This is really catering to his liking."

"Old Mr. Seymour has always liked collecting antiques and jade," Kai sighed, "I have to say, James has put a lot of effort into this." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"That painting of his was specially requested; he had to ask someone to part with it."

Sophie frowned, muttering, "This guy just wants to outshine my Mr. Seymour."

"No way, no way, no way!" Sophie grabbed her silky long hair and turned it into a mess, "I have to find a way to stop him."

"Bro, tell me, what can overshadow James Reed?" Sophie asked Kai anxiously, damn it, how could she allow her Mr. Seymour to be overshadowed by James?

"How about you buy ’Miss’?" Kai joked, only to receive a look from Sophie as if he were an idiot, prompting him to quickly raise his hands in surrender, smiling apologetically, "I was wrong, I was wrong, pretend I didn’t say anything."

"In terms of antique paintings, Old Mr. Seymour really does favor that; James Reed truly hit the mark. As for jade pieces... well, standout ones are quite rare. Maybe we should consider a surprise approach?" Kai patted his head, struggling to think of a good idea.

The key is, he’s never really put this much effort into gifting anyone.

"Let’s think it over, we still have time," Kai consoled, seemingly seeing Sophie so troubled for the first time, as she genuinely cared about matters concerning Charles Seymour.

"Yeah, yeah." Sophie nodded, contemplating heading back to her room, while Kai immediately dialed a number, and as soon as it connected, he began to wail, "Lucy, save me..."

Lucy Wells was startled, anxiously asking, "What happened? What’s wrong with you?"

Kai, upon hearing Lucy’s concern, was delighted to the point where his tail almost curled up, yet his voice remained listless, "I’m fine, but Sophie has a bit of a problem..."

The first step to pursuing a girlfriend is to create shared topics.

With shared topics, you can communicate more, interact more, and over time... wouldn’t you become familiar?

So, Kai relayed Sophie’s gift-buying trouble, consulting with Lucy about what gifts would be suitable, and with this single question, he and Lucy engaged in a heated discussion.

The discussion expanded from this question to topics like what Lucy likes to eat, her usual interests, and her dreams and hobbies for the future.

Meanwhile, Kai shared some interesting anecdotes from his experiences across different places.

By the time they hung up, an hour and a half had passed.
