The Ceo’s Loser Wife - Chapter 144
The 60-inch wall-mounted television flashed with important news from various countries, as the husband and wife pair casually rested on the couch, munching their lavish breakfast.
The crystal coffee table held various platters of cut fruits, scrambled eggs, red bean buns, and two half-drunk glasses of warm creamy milk.
There was even an elegant glass vase containing freshly cut white lilies, giving a warm feeling to the cozy household.
And of course, next to the relaxing couple, the cuddly slightly fattened up little white yawned and nonchalantly munched on its special breakfast bowl.
The atmosphere was very harmonious as if the couple had been married for decades.
Amidst curiously watching the current telecasted news, the husband and wife pair chatted about different things ranging from mundane commercials to cold political wars.
Luther’s face was full of smiles. Never in his life had he experienced a morning like this. Married life was indeed too good!
He didn’t dare tease the wifey about the events of the previous night, lest she might be too embarrassed to take control and straddle him again.
But he couldn’t control his mind from wandering to those sweet delicious memories from time to time.
After finishing breakfast, Su Lin started getting ready to meet with Squirrel and Runyan, while Luther’s face immediately turned color. His wifey was deserting him!!
Even little white looked pitiful when it saw Su Lin near the door wearing her heels, a clear definite signal that she was leaving the furry creature behind.
Looking at the sulking duo, Su Lin shook her head helplessly and promised to bring both the pitiful souls a surprise when she returned.
In a while, Squirrel dropped by driving his car and picked up Su Lin. If it was not for this fellow, Luther would have definitely tagged along.
But since it was Squirrel, Luther had a pretty good idea of how this day was going to progress.
Both Su Lin and Squirrel will end up constantly mumbling and discussing this leaf or that stem.
Though his brilliant wifey did look extremely sėxy when she talked about her domain, still, it was not enough to make Luther tag along. He neither cared about nor understood any of her herbology mumbo jumbo.
Since it all went over his head, he might as well stay back and take care of some household chores like hiring new housekeepers or tending to the gardens.
He also needed to take a look at the restaurant space they had purchased.
Ever since Su Lin had curiously asked him about his passion and joy in life, Luther had been mulling over this thought.
In his new life without violence and bloodshed, he couldn’t help but want to pursue his culinary arts.
When his wifey was going to be a super amazing business woman, as her husband, he at least needed to do this much, in order to stand next to her and walk with her.
Besides, a wise person had once told him… Wait, it might have been from one of the fashion magazines… clinginess was not good in a relationship!
One needs to have one’s own interest to let the relationship and marriage flourish.
Luther chuckled and choogle searched for a local hiring company. And the cute little white followed him around, out of sheer boredom.
Inside the Mercedes, Runyan handed over two huge folders to Su Lin. One detailing the research she had done and another outlining the analysis Squirrel had worked upon.
Su Lin sipped the soothing herbal tea in her mug and carefully perused the pages one by one.
Today, the trio were going around the city and visiting some potential properties for setting up their headquarters.
Hangzhou city is a booming city with fully developed central areas at its heart. Every single property worth buying was already bought.
So it was almost impossible for new entrepreneurs to bag a property in the main lifeline of the city.
In this case, one of the old central government buildings had been auctioned off to help with the city’s development. The astute retail owner, who had paid an exorbitant price for the prime space had now built an enormous skyscraper.
And the man was currently making a killing by selling the 50-floor building, one floor at a time, at almost a hundred-fold profit!
Su Lin, Squirrel, and Runyan met with their property consultant at the building entrance and strolled around the space leisurely planning their various arrangements.
True to the saying “enemies meet on a narrow road”, a familiar figure walked past them when they stepped out of the elevator.
Angela Hissenger adjusted her golden curly locks as she brushed past Su Lin and the group, whilst completely ignoring their presence.
The woman’s sleek black skirt, with a silky loose white shirt, bounced off pride and superiority, as she gracefully stepped inside the now empty elevator.
A clear smirk was visible in her flawless angular face and dove-like eyes, that shone with untold mirth. She fished out her phone from her vintage Louis Vuitton purse and sent a text to her brother. “I am taking this one.”
She turned towards her ȧssistant, who had also hurriedly scrambled in with her and murmured something with a chuckle. Her head was tilted slightly sideways, with her eyes still lingering on Su Lin.
And as she was chatting with her ȧssistant, Angela particularly enunciated three small words. “Close the deal.”
Runyan and Squirrel both had worried expressions on their face. The property consultant as well looked at them awkwardly, unsure of how to navigate the situation.
They had all clearly heard the words. “Close the deal.”
They had already paid an advance for this property and only the signing of the contract was remaining, but now this woman had already purchased it before them?
