Counterback of the Despised Luna by Diana West

Counterback of the Despised Luna Chapter 5 He's My Fiance Finished The rest of the photo shoot went smoothly, much to the disappointment of those gossipy hens.

None of the things they had hoped for cto pass.

Ryan complained about his clothes being ugly, but when I said they looked good, he didn't dare argue. Ryan couldn't resist nitpicking about the shoot, but one glance fromwas enough to make him fall silent. Even after three years, he was still so easily intimidated by me. And I'd never even laid a finger on him! What was supposed to be a five-hour shoot ended up taking just two hours, all thanks to Ryan's cooperation. Afterward, Ryan grabbed my hand and wouldn't let go. "Rosie! Let's go, I'm treating you to dinner!" "No, thank you. I haven't finished work yet," I politely declined.

There were still scompany employees nearby. It would be awkward to be so friendly with him, especially since he was such a big client.

"My Moon Goddess! Mr. Lindsay invited Rosaline to dinner and she actually turned him down!" one of them whispered.

"Wow, who is Rosaline actually? She's not only pretty but so impressive! Are you sure she's from the countryside?" "If Ryan invited me, I'd cat with him even if I had to strike!" The annoying whispers started to creep into my ears. I quickly asked Freya to reduce the amplification of my hearing. At last, it was peaceful again.

Ryan, looking a little crestfallen, pouted, "Rosie, why are you working at Eclipse Group? Did the Shadow Pack go bankrupt or something? If so, I'll support you!" I rolled my eyes at him. "You wouldn't understand my world." With that, I left him staring blankly, returning to the secretariat to finish my day.

At the end of the workday, Caden walked out of his office. When he sawsitting at my desk, he said, “Grandpa booked a table for us and wants us to have dinner together. Let's go." I looked at him, feeling puzzled. Caden sighed a hint of helplessness in his voice. 'Grandpa had a heart condition lately, and he's been recovering. He said that since you're here, he insists on having a welcdinner tonight. If not, he'll refuse to accept the treatment.” I chuckled. Richard certainly knew how to pressure his younger family members into doing what he wanted, just like my grandfather did.

At that moment, Ryan walked in.

"Rosie, you're off work now, right? Can we grab dinner now?" I was surprised that he had waited outside my office for five hours since the shoot ended.

Chapter 5 He's My Fiance "Caden?" he exclaimed.

"Rosie?" Caden looked at the two of us in confusion.

I sighed and looked at both of them. "Since we're all going to dinner, why don't you join us?" In the end, Ryan got into the car with us under Caden's questioning gaze.

Finished Ryan didn't stop talking the entire ride. I responded only occasionally to save him from being embarrassed. When we reached the restaurant, Ryan's enthusiasm kicked into full gear. He hurried to pull out my chair. refill my water, and servefood.

Caden's expression was one of surprise.

"By the way, Rosic, why did you cto Eclipse Group to work? And what's your relationship with Caden?" Ryan asked, eyeingand Caden back and forth with a look that said, "Something is going on between your two." I glanced at Caden before answering casually, "My Grandpa askedto come. Caden and I are engaged." Ryan, who had just taken a sip of water, spat it out.

"What?" he exclaimed, wiping his mouth with his sleeve. "Caden's fiancée from the countryside is you?" I nodded, not surprised by his reaction.

"You two?" Ryan looked atin disbelief. "You? Countryside?" I shot a subtle glare at him and he quickly shut his mouth.

Yes, I cfrom the countryside. But that countryside was hto a mansion worth billions, countless. luxury villas, and even a private airport.

"Grandpa said that the engagement will be called off after three months if we don't have any feelings for each other by then, I added, softening my gaze.

Ryan looked betweenand Caden, and in his blunt manner, he couldn't resist adding, "Well, that's good.

Caden doesn't deserve you. He's so cold and boring-he's not even as good as I am." Caden, who had been quietly eating, suddenly looked up. His expression darkened.

I had a feeling he wouldn't take that comment well. It was clear from his narcissistic nature that hearing Ryan say he wasn't good enough forwould annoy him. "Ryan, remember that car you wanted? Your brother askedto help buy it for you, but I think..." Caden began. "Wait, wait, wait, Caden! I didn't mean it like that!" Ryan chuckled awkwardly, sticking out his tongue, and finally stopped talking.

Neither of us dared to offend him, and the rest of the meal was much quieter, and more enjoyable without his chatter.

At the restaurant door, Ryan reluctantly bid farewell to me.

22:28 Thu, 13 Mar Chapter 5 He's My Flance.

"Goodbye, Rosie! I'll cfind you to hang out whenever I can." I patted his head with mock affection. "See you around, Ryan. Be careful on your way homet It felt like I was saying goodbye to one of my pets.

As I watched Ryan leave, Caden spoke up, his voice colder than usual, "So, you're sure you won't likebecause you already have someone you like, right?" €13 50 50
