Chapter: 4871
Initially, Luis thought to let it go, but then he felt he should offer some kind of compensation to Elva. After all, he was the one who had been unfaithful, so he grabbed his car keys, planning to buy her some jewelry and have Cassidy deliver it personally.
Just as he got into the car, Holley called.
In fact, she just clocked in for her shift.
In her sweet voice, Holley said, “Luis, I might not get off work until midnight today."
“Well, you must be worn out by then!" Luis responded nonchalantly.
There was a brief pause before Holley softly asked, “Wouldn't you like to join me for a bite after my shift's over?"
After thinking it over, Luis replied, "No, thanks. I never eat late at night! Elva also..."
He caught himself mid-sentence, realizing he was about to mention Elva's eating habits to stay fit... He abruptly stopped talking when he realized what he was about to say. He hadn't intended to draw any comparisons between Holley and his ex-girlfriend.
However, Holley, perceptive as she was, sensed what he was about to say.
She quickly recovered and suggested cheerily, “How about breakfast together tomorrow morning?"
Her suggestion reminded Luis of the modest food they had “enjoyed” that morning, so he replied, “Let's take a rain check on that! I'll cook breakfast for you whenever I'm free!"
Holley was thrilled by his promise, unaware that Luis had never stepped foot in the kitchen to cook, let alone get up early to prepare breakfast for anyone.
With over ten servants in his household, he had never needed to bother with such details.
Yet, no woman could resist such charming promises.
Satisfied, Holley ended the call and headed off to work in a good mood.
Just before she disconnected, Luis overheard her colleagues teasing Holley by calling her Mrs. Mendez.
He scowled at that. Although he had plans to marry Holley, he hadn't proposed yet. Moreover, he disliked it when others made Light of such a serious topic!
But for now, he was willing to overlook it because of his feelings for Holley.
After that, he stepped on the gas and headed for the shopping mall.
Unexpectedly, he spotted Elva there with a man... They appeared quite close to each other.
