Chapter 13
In the Rolls-Joyce.
"Mister Daddy, your performance was great. It looks like people in your industry know a thing or two about service."
Naomi changed into a comfortable position and lazily leaned back. She nodded approvingly at Jack.
Due to his perfect performance a moment ago, Naomi did not bother to pursue the matter of him not responding to her text.
"Service?"
Jack raised his eyebrows and swept Naomi a cold glance with his deep eyes.
Who did she think he was?
Sean, who was driving, was scared half to death while sweating profusely. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
Has this girl gone mad?
Naomi instinctively cowered a little. Why did the temperature in the car seem to go down?
She looked around in the luxurious car and felt as if something was not quite right.
The next second, she suddenly came to her senses and looked at Jack in a disapproving way.
"You just received a million dollars, yet you have already bought such a luxury car. Aren't you a little too reckless?"
The limited-edition Rolls-Joyce was at least 10 million. She has not given him that much money in such a short time.
Sean could no longer take it. He opened his mouth and said flatly in a stiff expression, "Miss Green, this is a worldwide limited-edition Rolls-Joyce. Only people of the highest social status can afford to buy it.
One million dollars. Are you joking?"
Sean emphasized the words people of the highest social status.
"What?" Naomi sized Jack up in surprise. She said without thinking, "I thought that you're a stri…"
"What?" Jack raised his eyebrows and gave her a judgmental glare. The car was suddenly filled with a murderous aura! As if Naomi said one more wrong word, her life would end right there.
"No, no, no, nothing! I thought you must be str-stressed out! A white-collar genius who was relaxing at the bar. Haha…" Her instincts to survive kicked in and Naomi forcefully said something else.
"So, who are you?" Naomi hoped that she did not offend any big boss. A sense of worry overwhelmed Naomi. She should not have gotten in the car so recklessly!
"Miss Green, don't you know who he is? He is the head of one of the four most influential families in Gin City, the heir to the Houghs, Gin City's wealthiest person!"
Sean explained while observing Naomi through the rearview mirror.
Did this girl not know or was she faking it?
"Of course, I don't know who he is. If I knew, I wouldn't have…" Naomi's mind blanked. She was bewildered. No wonder the sense of doom was looming over her! She could not afford to hire the wealthiest person of Gin City to put on an act of a fake marriage!
At that thought, Naomi smiled pretentiously at Jack.
"Mister Daddy, ah, no. I mean, Mister Hough. This marriage is an accident. To prevent any further trouble, I think we should just get a divorce, right?"
Jack snickered but his laughter did not reach his eyes.
Naomi relaxed a little due to Jack's reaction, but she immediately tensed up even more.
"So, you think you can just come and go in this marriage whenever you want?" Jack said in a dangerous tone.
Naomi instinctively cowered. She gritted and said, "This marriage does not profit you in any way, right?"
Coincidentally, right at that moment, the car stopped at a luxurious salon. Sean politely opened the car door.
"Sir, we're here."
Jack got out of the car first. He looked at Naomi with his dark eyes without any expression.
"We each get something out of it."
"G-Get…something out of it?" Naomi was confused.
Ten minutes later, they were in the most luxurious makeup studio in Gin City.
Naomi looked at the thick stack of the marriage contract. She finally understood what Jack meant when he said that they each got something out of it.
"So, you too need someone to fake a marriage and put up an act to deal with your family?"
"As long as you agree to the clauses in the contract, we can make changes to the conditions." Sean looked at Jack and said politely on his behalf.
In fact, the contract was an extremely good deal. There was no requirement for physical contact. Jack even gave a few hundred million in cash, a house, and a car!
"I do indeed have one condition." Naomi glanced through the contract and looked at Jack seriously.
Sean's expressions darkened. She finally showed her true colors! The evil, greedy woman! Money was not enough to satisfy her! Sure enough, she was coveting the position as the Lady of the Hough family!
Jack's eyes darkened a little. He looked at Naomi in scrutiny.
"Tell me."
"I initially hired someone to put on an act with me, so I’ll need that. You have to play along with me unconditionally."
Naomi felt that the contract should be on equal standing. Of course, they had to help each other out.
However, in Jack's ears, it sounded like she had insatiable greed.
"Okay, I'll agree to it." A few seconds later, Jack smiled meaningfully and slowly said.
Naomi felt strange, but she could not explain it. Thus, she swiftly signed the papers.
"Okay, I'll help you deal with your grandfather first."
Then, she followed the staff to the dressing room next door.
Once she left, Sean immediately said anxiously, "Sir, you agreed to her unconditional playing along, this girl clearly has other intentions!"
Jack narrowed his eyes with a murderous gaze. At that moment, the most crucial thing was to deal with his grandfather.
If Naomi was truly up to something, Jack would show no mercy!
An hour later, just as Jack was about to lose his patience, the door was pushed open from the outside.
"Is this alright?" A clear voice rang out. Jack subconsciously looked up.
Their eyes met. His long emotionless eyes finally had a ripple of emotion in them…
