Chapter 158: President Fairchild Is So Confident
"President Fairchild, you came to find me so late? Is something important going on?" Keith Coleman couldn’t help but ask.
Keith Coleman had just booked a private room and was ready to party, but then Evan Fairchild crashed the scene. All his friends had scattered, and he hadn’t even managed to hit on the cute girl he’d just spotted!
This was supposed to be a fun, relaxing place, but with Evan Fairchild here, it instantly felt like a boardroom.
Evan Fairchild sat up straight, shifting into a more comfortable position, his brow slightly furrowed the whole time.
Apparently, this matter was extremely important—so important that the great President Fairchild himself seemed a little indecisive.
Keith Coleman straightened his own clothes and waited with great solemnity for Evan Fairchild to speak.
Evan Fairchild’s lips moved, but no sound came out.
Keith Coleman remained tense, not daring to even breathe too loudly.
’What kind of major crisis is this? The atmosphere is so tense!’
"Why would one person feel such intense fear toward another?" Evan Fairchild’s voice finally broke the silence.
"Is one person Mrs. Fairchild, and the other person you, President Fairchild?"
The title "Mrs. Fairchild" greatly pleased Evan Fairchild. His perpetually furrowed brow relaxed, and under Keith Coleman’s questioning gaze, he gave a slight nod.
Tommy: ’How did Keith figure that out?! How could he possibly know?’
"President Fairchild, this would be impossible for anyone else, but for you, it’s completely normal! I mean, come on, who isn’t afraid of you?"
"How do I make her not afraid?"
"Have you shown her that you like her?"
"Yes," Evan Fairchild replied with certainty.
Tommy: ’???? Has he?’
Keith: ’President Fairchild is so confident!’
In his eyes, Evan Fairchild was the epitome of a man who was single purely because of his own cluelessness.
"President Fairchild, is it possible you haven’t been obvious enough?"
"How can I be more obvious?"
Keith Coleman suddenly stood up and walked over to a baffled Tommy. "Tommy, I just realized something. The name of the person I like is the same as a movie title."
Tommy grew even more confused. "What name?"
"Your Name."
Tommy was speechless.
Evan Fairchild glanced at Keith Coleman. "Is that how you got so many girlfriends?"
"Of course, I’ve got more! I can use different lines for different people!" Keith Coleman suddenly grabbed Tommy by the shoulders and pinned him against the wall.
"Tommy, someone as amazing as you has one fatal flaw. Do you know what it is?"
"What?"
"You’re missing me!"
Evan Fairchild stood up, buttoned his suit jacket, and left.
"President Fairchild, don’t be in such a hurry to leave! I’ve got tons of other pickup lines and tricks! I guarantee they’ll work. President Fairchild! President Fairchild! Pres—"
Evan Fairchild walked out of the club and started his car.
It wasn’t until his car passed through the gates of the villa community that he realized he had returned to this place automatically.
A place he had only been to three times.
「...」
Melody Monroe didn’t know what time she’d fallen asleep, but she knew she hadn’t gotten any deep sleep all night. She kept waking up, falling back asleep, and then waking up all over again.
She pulled out her phone to check the time and shot bolt upright, wide awake!
"Oh my god! It’s already past eight!" She immediately threw off the covers, got out of bed, and ran toward the bathroom.
After washing up, Melody Monroe hurried to leave, only to suddenly see a figure standing in the doorway.
"Ah!" she shrieked uncontrollably.
Evan Fairchild took a step forward and covered her mouth. He pressed her against the edge of the sink, and she stared at him, stunned and too scared to move.
"Don’t scream so loud."
Melody was speechless.
Evan Fairchild slowly removed his hand, his gaze lingering on her...
