Kate held her breath as Henry approached her, he stopped right in front of her. He had his devilishly handso smile pasted on his face, making every woman he t fall head over heels for him.
"You didn’t tell that your sister was here, Kate," Henry said. He shifted his gaze towards Erin, who was in a daze as she stared at the absurdly handso man before her.
"Why... why are you here?" Kate asked.
"Huh, we ca here for lunch, rember? I’ve been waiting for you by the corner. Don’t worry, I’ve ordered your favorite food already," Henry said as he returned his attention to Kate.
She didn’t know what Henry was up to. She had already told him to leave after dropping her off at the bank earlier.
It was either an improbable coincidence, or he had been tailing her the whole ti.
But that wasn’t the main issue right now.
Kate looked over her shoulder. As expected, Erin must’ve been smitten by Henry’s good looks and wealthy deanor. She knew that Erin was weak to a handso man, and Henry was the type of man that would make her crazy.
She was afraid Erin might do sothing extre to get Henry’s attention, just like what she did with Matt.
So Kate tried to push Henry away and said, "You need to leave now, Henry. people are staring."
"And what’s wrong with people staring at us?" Henry acted innocent as he looked Kate in the eyes. "Besides, I want to introduce myself to your sister."
Henry wrapped his arm around Kate’s waist while he extended his other hand over Kate’s body towards Erin. He smiled charmingly at Erin and introduced himself, "Good afternoon, my na is Henry Grant, I am Kate’s bo—"
"—BOSS! He is my boss!" Kate interrupted before Henry said sothing that would bring nothing but trouble to her. She grabbed his arm and dug her nails into his skin as a warning, "And my BOSS has sothing to do. You have a eting in ten minutes, Sir. You need to leave now."
Henry was confused by Kate’s reaction. Shouldn’t she be happy about his presence? He had been watching from his seat and knew that Erin was bullying Kate.
He didn’t know why a young woman like Erin could bully a usually strong and composed woman like Kate, but he tried to keep calm as he listened intently.
However, when he saw how Kate’s body visibly trembled when Erin whispered sothing in her ear, Henry couldn’t hold it anymore and got up to interfere.
He thought that Kate would be happy and played along as he wanted to claim that he was Kate’s boyfriend, and that he was ready to protect her in case Erin dared to hurt her.
Since he hadn’t co up with a good idea on how to kick Erin out of Kate’s life, intimidating her was the only option Henry had for now.
So he was visibly confused by Kate’s strong reaction against him.
"I don’t have any etings with anyone. We’re here for lunch, rember?" Henry recalled. "Besides, I really want to get to know your sister. I want to leave a... good impression on her."
He glanced at Erin, who was still in a daze. She was so star-struck by Henry that she was comically drooling, and when their eyes t, Erin showed that perverted grin as if she couldn’t wait to pounce on Henry.
Kate looked behind her to check on Erin, a feeling of dread ca over her as she saw that sa expression Erin had towards Matt.
What she feared the most had happened. Erin would probably pester her nonstop after this, trying to find a way to date Henry. Kate feared that her sister may take extre thods to get in contact with Henry.
Knowing that she was screwed, Kate dragged Henry out of the restaurant without saying anything to Erin.
Henry was confused as Kate dragged him out, but he followed her like an obedient dog when he saw that Kate’s eyes glazed with tears that threatened to fall for an unknown reason.
anwhile, Erin snapped out of her daze when Henry finally disappeared with her sister as they left the restaurant.
She wiped the drool off her lips and then clicked her tongue in awe, "I didn’t know that Kate has an absolute hunk of a boss. Why didn’t she tell sooner?" Erin wondered. "Hmm, could it be that they’re actually dating? Maybe that’s why she doesn’t seem the least bit bothered knowing that Matt cheated on her with . For a woman who has dedicated her life to Matt, my sis is surprisingly quick to move on.."
Erin considered the possibility for a while and then scoffed, "Okay, that’s just stupid. My sis is like—so basic and ugly. A young, handso, and rich guy, liking a plain jane that looks like she can be a background character? Hihi, that’s impossible!"
Erin giggled as she imagined Kate with that handso man standing side by side like a couple. That image was so funny because Kate was so ugly and shabby in Erin’s mind. She didn’t compare at all.
But then, she sighed as she replaced Kate’s position in the imagination. She stood side by side with that man, and he gently wrapped his hand around her waist, pulling her closer.
She still rembered everything about him: his striking blonde hair, green eyes that looked like a pair of eralds, perfectly tanned body with nice abs, and perfectly sculpted face that could turn everything blurry around him because he had the permanent spotlight around him.
"Ahh, I think I’m in love," Erin gasped. "That man is more handso than Matt. No, that guy is so much more compared to Matt in every way, I bet he’s actually a model or an upcoming actor. It’d be a waste to have that kind of face without showing it to everyone, right?"
"I think it’s ti for to find a better man than Matt," Erin thought. "Or~ he could stay in his apartnt as my side piece, while I’m having fun with this new man."
