Chapter 150 Slowly Falling Into the Trap
Stanley didn’t feel defeated since he already had his fill of kisses. With the lingering warmth of Melinda’s lips and her sweetness, he confidently walked up to Taylor’s room and cast a childish disdainful glance at it! Only then did he strut back to his room. It was often claimed that women were fools for love, but ment were not much different, were they?
After Stanley returned to his bedroom, he still yearned for more of that kiss. A gentle smile appeared on his handsome face when his phone suddenly chimed as he received a notification. He took out his phone and saw that Monica had sent him a text message via WhatsApp. Edward had called, informing them of a change in schedule and advancing the meeting time. Edward also invited both Stanley and her to attend. his daughter’s 18th birthday and coming-of-age ceremony. Stanley read the message three times before dialing Monica’s number.
On the other hand, Monica was taken aback when the phone that she was holding suddenly rang! She stared at the incoming call and took a deep breath before answering, “Hello, are you still awake?” Her voice was particularly tender.
“What’s going on? Wasn’t it scheduled for next month?” Stanley asked. “Did he tell you that?”
“Yes,” Monica replied in frustration. “Mr. Edward just called. He hopes that we can attend his daughter’s 18th birthday banquet. He feels sorry because he is scheduled for his fifth leg surgery next month, and the doctor changed the timing. Since it will clash with your schedule, he wants to discuss the collaboration with you on his daughter’s birthday instead.”
Stanley didn’t doubt the authenticity of this matter since it made sense. “When is his daughter’s birthda
“It’s on the 15th of this month, which is the day after tomorrow. However, we’ll need to arrive on the 14
“Are you going too?” Stanley asked again.
“Yes,” Monica replied calmly. “He invited both of us over and said he neednovelxo.com fast updateed our help.”
Hearing that, Stanley’s expression remained calm as his deep eyes gazed into the night sky. “Got it.”
“You should rest early, then. Goodnight,” she said and ended the call. Monica didn’t give him a chance to refuse. After all, it was Edward, and Stanley would carefully consider the invitation.
On her phone’s web browser, the Google page of Edward’s daughter appeared, her birthday prominently highlighted. Monica was determined to make Stanley leave Repulse Bay! He couldn’t stay there any longer, or he would be ensnared by Chloe! She would use her intelligence and tactics to win over Stanley!
Meanwhile, at Repulse Bay, Stanley didn’t ponder whether to go or not. Instead, he sent a WhatsApp message to the girl next door that read, “Have you finished bathing?”
With that, Melinda replied with a single word, ‘No!
Are you still using your phone while bathing? Also, why did you respond so quickly? He smiled and responded.
There wasn’t any response from the other end following that, which made Stanley somewhat uneasy. What is she doing?
After a while, she replied, I’m going to bed now.
‘Goodnight.”
Slowly Falling Into the Trap
‘Goodnight. Stanley felt quite happy after bidding each other goodnight.
He lay on the bed and thought of Edward. The man had done a great favor for the Fox Group, so Stanley had to attend his daughter’s coming-of-age ceremony.
The next morning, when Taylor opened his bedroom door, he was surprised to find Stanley standing in the doorway, “Good morning.” Taylor said while releasing the door handle. “Please come in.” He wondered how long Stanley had been standing there.
With that, Stanley entered the room and gently closed the door. “Tll be leaving on a business trip to Arunia tomorrow. I just want to remind you to not cross the line with your mentor.”
Taylor was lost for words. “Mr. Fox, you sure are…”
“I’m serious,” Stanley said earnestly, his hands in his pockets. “You need to keep your distance from her and not harbor any inappropriate thoughts.”
“I don’t have any!” Taylor became equally serious. I’ve said before that I will only wish you both well if you treat her well.”
Hearing that, Stanley nodded and placed a hand on Taylor’s shoulder. His tone was solemn as he said, “Take care of her for me these few days. My mother has a bad temper.”
“You can surely count on me.” Taylor answered with a nod.
