Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO’s Plaything - Chapter 756

Oh?

Did Greta just ask her to have lunch together?

Actually, Lisa was afraid to hear her invitation to have lunch together. Deep down inside, she knew the reason the demonic woman wanted to take her out to lunch.

She must want to make fun of her! Otherwise, why would Greta do that?

But if Lisa turned down Greta’s invitation to have lunch together today, Greta would have looked for another opportunity. Lisa had known the woman long enough to know that Greta wasn’t the type to give up easily.

Lisa frowned, “Okay.”

Hearing Greta’s invitation to have lunch together made her lose her appetite. She pushed the small plate of jam buns away from her.

“Come to The Hills at 3, I have business to attend to.” Greta replied coldly, “And don’t bring anyone, this time is just for the two of us.”

Without giving Lisa a chance to answer her words, Greta had already hung up on their call.

3 o’clock is not really a good time for lunch. Moreover, Lisa’s appetite just disappeared when she heard Greta’s signature voice. But what could she do? She had already agreed to the demonic woman’s invitation to have lunch together.

Actually, Lisa had an appointment to eat with Oscar. But since she agreed to meet Greta, Lisa had to cancel her promise with Oscar.

But of course she didn’t tell Oscar the real reason why she canceled her lunch appointment with him. If Oscar knew she was going to eat with Greta, the man would definitely ask to join them for lunch.

It’s not that she was afraid of ruining Oscar’s relationship with his mother further. Lisa believed that with the man present, the problem would only get bigger.

Lisa knew the reason why Greta took her to lunch with her. That demonic woman must be looking for opportunities to make fun of her.

How could Lisa allow Oscar to hear Greta’s humiliating words that she was about to throw at her later?

At first, when Lisa first met Oscar, she was afraid of the demonic woman. After all, Greta is his biological mother. So scared, she didn’t do anything though Greta’s scathing words hurt her heart. Lisa also foolishly let Greta destroy her relationship with Oscar before.

But now, she’s changed her way of thinking. Even though Greta is Oscar’s biological mother, that doesn’t mean she has the right to control their lives!

Lisa:

Uh sorry, I suddenly have a plan to eat with an important client. Let’s eat some other times, okay?

Oscar had not replied to Lisa’s text message even though the woman had sent it about 10 minutes ago. Maybe he was in a meeting or too busy to reply to her text right away.

Lisa waited for a few more minutes, and still didn’t receive a reply from the man either.

Since the lunch appointment with Greta is at 3 pm, Lisa decides to leave the office building at around 3:30 am. The place is in the city center, close to the Better Life office. it may only take 10 to 15 minutes for her to arrive safely at The Hills.

When Lisa’s feet stepped into the restaurant, her mood immediately fell apart. The minute her eyes saw the figure of Greta sitting facing the window of the restaurant, she regretted coming here to have lunch together.

“Good afternoon, have you made a reservation?” One of the restaurant employees greeted her.

Lisa averted her eyes and wanted to answer the man’s question. But before she could do that, she heard Greta’s signature voice.

“Lisa, come here!” Greta shouted quite loudly.

Hearing Greta’s voice made Lisa and the man turn their heads in unison. Lisa nodded her head and walked over to the table that Greta had ordered with her right hand tightly clenched.

Whatever happens later, Lisa must keep her emotions in check.

“Good afternoon, auntie.” Lisa greeted her, trying to sound and look fine.

Since Lisa and Oscar haven’t remarried, she couldn’t possibly call Greta ‘Mother’. What’s more, Lisa is sure that even though she and Oscar are married, Greta definitely doesn’t want her to call her ‘Mama’.

“Sit down.” Greta replied coldly. The woman’s eyes looked bored.

If Lisa forgot that the woman was Oscar’s biological mother, maybe she would think that she was dealing with a fierce lecturer. She will probably think that she was inviting her killer lecturer to have lunch together so she can help with her thesis.

Lisa immediately followed Greta’s orders and sat across from the woman. Of course she didn’t make jokes or other words that could offend her. If Lisa did that, she might end up getting humiliated in public!

The waiter brought them two menu books which Lisa and Greta immediately accepted.

Lisa looked at the menu from the first page to the end, trying to find a menu that wasn’t too heavy but could fill her empty stomach. Also she wasn’t sure who would pay for their lunch. If she chose an expensive meal and it turned out that Greta told her to pay for their lunch, she wouldn’t know what to do later!

Even though Greta also took the menu book, it didn’t mean her eyes were fixed on it. She focused on Lisa who was busy flipping through the pages of the menu book instead.

No matter how polite and generous Lisa is, Greta still doesn’t like that woman! She hated Lisa so much that her eyes and mind were filled with how to get rid of her.

After ordering lunch for each of them, the waiter left them alone. Actually, Lisa realized that the woman couldn’t stop watching her movements, but she didn’t do anything and pretended not to notice.

“So—” Lisa started, but before she could finish her sentence, her cell phone suddenly rang!

Lisa automatically looked down and took her cell phone out of her bag.

But before she could see who was calling her, she heard Greta’s voice.

“Five years ago…” Greta said as she coldly looked into Lisa’s eyes.

“Why did you marry Oscar? What was the reason?”
