Armand thought Boyce would reprimand him, but he was the one who got gossipy.
“You think Cormac has ever gotten away with it?” Armand leaned towards Boyce.
Boyce glanced at Armand, smiled expressively, “Probably not as fast as you and Theresa Gordon.”
Armand was speechless.
They were talking about Cormac, why was he pulled to the conversation?
“Boyce Shawn!” Armand pretended to be mad, grabbed his neck, and put him in a chokehold, “Tell me, you don’t dare to do it again/”
“Are you sure that you are not letting me go?” This wasn’t a threat; it’s a simple statement.
Boyce’s skills were for real, and Armand was not really on his level.
Although Armand was recalcitrant, he knew that his small physique wasn’t a match for him, so he let go.
Bathroom.
Loredana was so embarrassed that she wanted to hide somewhere.
“You, are you fine?” Although she was concerned, her eyes weren’t looking at Cormac.
“Lift me up.” Cormac raised his hand.
Loredana looked away, and reached out her hand to help him. She was not sure if it was because Cormac was too heavy; she realized that she could not lift him up.
After several tries to lift him up, she looked at him.
At the same time, Cormac was staring at her. He smiled, and effortlessly pushed with his hands.
Loredana fell down again, and when she was getting up, Cormac held her down and didn’t let her move.
Loredana muttered, “What are you doing?”
She couldn’t speak loudly as she didn’t know what Armand and Boyce could be thinking about. They probably got the wrong idea.
Cormac kept on smiling, grabbed her hand, and pressed on the chest, seriously talking rubbish, “If I really can’t do it anymore, what happens to your ‘Sexual Happiness’ for the rest of your life?”
Loredana was speechless.
Cormac pressed her hand, and rubbed it on the chest, “I want to give you ‘Sexual Happiness’, what should I do?”
Loredana instantly blushed. This person, could he be serious for a while?
“Stop it.” Loredana tried to resist.
Cormac didn’t let go, and continued to press her hand.
Loredana glared at him, “If you don’t stop, I am getting angry?”
Cormac was speechless.
Sometimes, this person was like that. When you politely acted, he would push his luck. When you got mad, he would then get serious.
Bitch, this term was probably made for this kind of person.
Loredana put his arm on her shoulder, and held him.
No matter, she was the one who made him fall. It was only right for her to help him up.
Cormac looked at her. He could actually get up by himself, but he just liked the feeling of how close she was to him.
He moved his body towards her.
Loredana pulled open the bathroom door. Armand and Boyce were drinking tea on the sofa, and she was relieved after not seeing them “gossiping”. Afraid that the mood would be embarrassing, she purposely asked something, “What is going on? How did Lacey have a child before?”
Even though when she was a minor?
Boyce put down the tea cup, “The rumor of the villagers is that Lacey was reckless and fooled around in school. The Ward family condemned her and did not want to raise, so…”
“That’s how it is?” Loredana thought Lacey wasn’t the type of person who didn’t know the seriousness of things. 16 years old. The mind wasn’t mature enough, but at least some common sense. How can she have a relationship with others and gave birth to a child?
“Of course, I think there is more to it. It happened a long time ago already and the Ward family seems to conceal the matter. I’m afraid we can’t know more about it.” Boyce used his experience to provide a perspective to this matter. He felt that things were not as simple as it was, and where did Lacey’s hostility to Loredana come from?
For her to open up her scars, and make a story about abusing a child to scare her?
Loredana most likely knew why Lace hated her, “She probably likes Charles, and thinks that I am close with him?”
She helped Cormac sit on the sofa, and sat as well, “Although there is no evidence for now, she is indeed suspicious. She clearly has been to the hotel, but she denies it.”
“How did you know?” Boyce asked.
“She said it herself. In order to prove that Lacey was not the one who scared me, Charles brought Lacey and confronted with me. She said that she had never been to the hotel.”
Armand became interested, “What is her relationship with Charles that he would protect her like that?”
“She and Charles were orphaned together when they were still young. So, they have a good relationship,” Loredana said flatly.
Armand smiled as he glanced at Cormac. He leaned forward a little and asked, “Loredana, how do you know? Did Charles tell you?”
Loredana didn’t realize the trap in Armand’s words, and she answered honestly, “Yes.”
Furthermore, how would she know if Charles didn’t tell her? She was short of hand to look into this.
“He told you his own life story and trusted you so much. Doesn’t he have a thing for you?”
Loredana was speechless.
Cormac’s face became gloomy, and his chest tightened. He could tell that Charles had a crush on Loredana.
Cormac’s frostiness was palpable to Loredana.
She didn’t even have to look at Cormac to notice that he was wearing a glum expression now.
Loredana squinted at Armand, “Why don’t I have any feeling? Are you able to read his mind? You can even figure out what he is thinking?”
Armand was speechless.
Boyce said with a smile, “Exactly. Perhaps he is a type of insect which can read people’s mind.”
Armand stared at Boyce, “How could you not stand firm on your position? We are friends!”
He pronounced the word “friends” with a heavier tone, as if to remind Boyce who he was with.
Boyce went and stood behind Loredana, outstretched his hands, “I must be with Loredana. You don’t have any money. What is the benefit of being with you?”
Armand, “…”
Loredana turned her head over and stared at Boyce speechlessly, “I don’t have money either.”
“You don’t, but Cormac does. Cormac’s is now yours. Even if it isn’t yours, it’s your son’s. In any case, you must be richer than Armand. I will definitely have a good time if I follow you.”
Cormac now had only one child, Samuel. Wasn’t it true that the Mendelsohn family’s property would be passed down to his son in the future?
Eh, that was not right. Armand sat beside Loredana and smiled fawningly, “Loredana, I will also follow you in the future.”
He wasn’t stupid. He wanted to follow Loredana because even Cormac now wanted to follow her.
