Wolf President Hooks Up

Chapter 27: Defeated by a Call

Presumably, anyone who has a 10 million debt on their heads would have difficulty sleeping at night and be so worried that their hair turned white. To continue eating and sleeping as usual, she would be looking on the bright side of things already.

Ms. Sophia was stunned by Elaine’s shameless question. Money? President Smith’s little lover still needed to worry about money when eating? So weird.

“Oh, the food here is not that expensive. For a business set meal, 40 or 50 dollars is enough, there’s drinks, vegetables, and side dishes available. Quite reasonable.”

“What!” Elaine shouted exaggeratedly, not ladylike at all, “So expensive! 40 or 50 dollars! It’s enough for my whole family meal for one day…” Her last sentence was mumbled to herself; hence Sophia didn’t hear it clearly, but her earlier words surprised her.

Weird, 40 to 50 dollars set meal and it’s too expensive? Was there really anyone that can live better than her?

Reaching the ground floor, Elaine straightaway waved goodbye to Sophia, “Ms. Sophia, you can go ahead and eat your curry rice. I’ll go and shop around the streets. I’ll see the small stalls if there’s food such as wontons or vermicelli. Bye-bye.”

Sophia’s eyes widened as big as a bell, waving her hand, wanted to shout loudly but felt that it would damage the image of a white-collar. “Hey~ Elaine, I’ll treat you, I’ll treat you to this meal…”

But Elaine used the speed of a rabbit and ran off without a shadow. “I’m now a poor person, extremely poor! I have to learn how to be frugal, save every single cent and payback that bad-bear Smith! No matter how you say it, bad-bear Smith is my biggest enemy, if he isn’t so evil, I wouldn’t be so miserable. Although our family doesn’t have much money, we have never been in debt before. Bad- bear Smith, we are irreconcilable!!!” Elaine was mumbling while walking on the streets.

“Ah-choo!” Emmett picked up the tissue and lowered his head slightly, blocking, and then sneezed elegantly.

“Emmett, do you have a cold? Haha, I have not seen you sick in so many years, is it some woman who has tired you out and hallowed you out?” Oliver grinned wickedly while tasting the wine.

No one could ever think that the two most famous bachelors would have dozens of dishes for a meal, but treated the dishes like flowers. Both of them are the kind that doesn’t eat much, as if they have lost interest in eating.

The waiter was struggling internally: What a fragrant dish, why don’t they touch it?

“What cold? I don’t know which bastard is scolding me behind my back.” After Emmett finished speaking, he suddenly froze. Who would scold him? The only one who has guts to scold him… Haha, most probably only that little thing. Thinking of Elaine, his lips couldn’t help but slightly smiled.

“Hey! Such an ambiguous expression, who did you think of? Knowing you for so many years, this is the first time I see such an affectionate expression on you! According to my observation, you’re definitely very attentive to this woman.”

Emmett raised his eyebrow. The gentleness from earlier disappeared. He has always been good at hiding emotions, “How is it as dramatic as you think? I’m not you, I’m an ordinary man while you’re Master Young, who lives in a fairy tale that’s all about love.” With ease, Emmett directed his sarcasm towards Oliver.

Oliver nearly spat his wine, “Hey, you brat, don’t use your business negotiation methods on me. If I get married to the babe I’m chasing, all of you don’t be too surprised! Humph~” He said with a smug face.

“Hahaha, married? Don’t scare people. Master Young, let me ask you, is your babe old enough to get married?”

It’s seemed not enough... Oliver smiled, “It doesn’t matter, we can get in the car first, and then buy a ticket later. We will earn money from you this group of wealthy people first!”

Emmett suddenly lowered his head and remembered that he forgot to ask the little white rabbit, Elaine, what she would have for lunch. Since she was so stupid, does she know to go down to eat? Emmett literally thought of Elaine as an idiot in life. Actually, on the contrary, maybe Elaine is a little foolish and stupid on the matters of feelings and scheming. But a child like her was, in fact, a good player in life.

She had looked after her father and younger sister since young, just like another woman of the house. She has never eating expensive and famous dishes, neither does she know how to cook it, but she was very good with making home-cooked food. It was difficult for a man to look after two children alone. If a girl is not independent, she would have to eat salted vegetables and noodles every day.

Emmett was a doer. He immediately took out his phone and called Elaine. Oliver was chewing on his food and examined the beautiful man opposite. Damn it, although he was considered handsome himself, but compared to Emmett, he could only admit he was in second place.

Emmett has a temperament that men nowadays don’t have, domineering! Between his brows, there’s always a portion of sharpness and surliness.

“Emmett, you can’t even eat without being uneasy, who are you thinking about?”

Emmett gave Oliver a glance, “Eat yourself!”

It rang for a while before it was connected, the noisy background could be heard. Emmett not only frowned, and he even held the phone further. Where was this girl, why was it so loud?

“Who is this?” Elaine’s sweet voice was heard.

Emmett’s heart shivered fiercely. This girl always had a sweet and greasy voice, even when she’s angry or yelling, it still had a rich lollipop taste.

“Me,” Emmett said like a hotshot. Oliver smirked wickedly towards him.

Elaine was standing on the street, looking for the food street, and impatiently said, “Aye, seriously, don’t you say who you are first when you call someone else? Who are you exactly? If it’s a mistake, I’ll hang up first.”

Elaine was already famished and was standing on the street, wasting time with a stranger like a fool. Her stomach was protesting long ago.

Elaine’s answer was something that Emmett didn’t expect. Oh! She actually couldn’t recognize his voice! In the past, whoever was on the phone with him, would first be startled when they see his super auspicious number, and which one didn’t answer his call respectfully? But this Elaine Jones… Actually, yelled at him! And yelled with annoyance!

At this moment, Oliver realized that a strange look appeared on Emmett’s face.

“I am Emmett Smith.”

“Hehe…” This time, Oliver couldn’t hold back and chuckled softly. It was as if seeing Emmett being defeated was the greatest joy in his life.

“Who? Please repeat! It’s very messy here, I didn’t hear clearly! What?”

Just nice a car screeched by, it was so noisy that Elaine couldn’t hear anything. Emmett had his jaw locked, keeping in his temper, and repeated again, “Em, meett, Smith!”

“...” Elaine was shocked and went silent for a while. Bad-bear Smith? Why is he calling at this time? Would it be he wanted this unlucky assistant to buy him food from somewhere? Or run errands for him? To earn that salary, you’ll have to do the job, if she didn’t go, she could forget about this 2,000 dollars a month assistant job.

After considering it, Elaine simply blew into the phone. She hit it twice, putting the phone a meter away and shouting, “Ah? What did you say? The signal is not good here! Hello? Hello?!” Then she ended the call, patting her chest, gasping.

Two seconds later, Elaine quacked with joy. “Hahaha, I’m so smart! Dismiss him so easily! Yay!” Then, just in case, Elaine quickly turned off her phone. Haha, this time, you can’t find trouble with me during my break time, right? Bad-bear Smith! Go and eat shit! Elaine kept her phone and bounced towards the food street.

“Shit!” Emmett didn’t hold back and scolded. He looked at the phone eerily and ignored Oliver. He dialed again, right, you dared to hang up on me. You have skills now, acting as if the signal is terrible, you must have watched too many movies, little thing!

This time… Emmett’s face wholly blackened.

“Dare to turn off the phone!!!” The angry voice spewed out directly.

Oliver was surprised, “Aye, incredible! Which heroine is this? Dare to turn off our Master Smith’s phone? Don’t be angry, don’t, Master Smith, you can send the brothers from ZH Clan to flatten her house! Then she’ll be obedient.”

Emmett glared at Oliver viciously, knowing that Oliver was deliberately teasing him, “Will you die if you say lesser? If you nag again, I’ll ask ZH Clan to flatten your house!”

Oliver stuck out his tongue, ginning with his head lowered, and eating. It seemed that this girl who hung up on Emmett’s call has some skills. She made Emmett, who was always calm in all situations, face crossed, hahaha. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Elaine finally found what she liked to eat, haha, mala* soup!

*Mala is the spicy and numbing flavor in Chinese cuisine, which is made from Sichuan peppercorn, chili pepper and various spices simmered with oil.
