Although she was already feeling hesitant in her heart, she still nodded and said, "Fine."
As soon as that man had offered 50 million dollars, Aria Rowlett had guessed that his identity must be extraordinary, definitely a big shot who was either rich or powerful.
But when she followed Charlie through one garden and then two courtyards, she was still shocked by the absurdly extravagant mansion.
It hardly seemed like a residential area for people.
It was more like a large forest park.
If it weren’t for Charlie leading her, she would have definitely gotten lost.
She knew that the man had money.
But she had never thought that he could be this wealthy.
It was beyond her understanding.
After following Charlie for almost ten minutes, finally, he stopped in front of a white building.
"Ms. Aria, Mr. Brandon is waiting for you inside."
As soon as Charlie finished speaking, a person walked out of the White Castle.
Aria Rowlett heard Charlie politely say "Luke," she furrowed her brows and raised her head.
Upon seeing the person she detested, she frowned even more, her expression becoming a bit unpleasant.
Similarly, when Luke saw her, he also frowned, his face not looking very pleased.
Neither of them gave each other a good look, both showing disdain and annoyance in their expressions.
"Charlie, thank you for your hard work. There’s nothing for you here, you can go about your business."
After Charlie left, Luke snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "Ms. Aria is truly capable. In just one night, our boss can’t stop thinking about you."
"I’ve underestimated you, Ms. Aria."
Aria Rowlett had heard him talking before.
She could tell that Luke didn’t like her and thought she was scheming, trying to seduce his boss intentionally.
From the first time they met, he had never given her a good look.
As for such a person, Aria Rowlett would undeniably not put up with his temper.
She sneered, "Luke, I know you’re jealous and envious, feeling bitter inside. You think I stole the man you’re interested in. So you can’t help but say these sour words to me. However, no matter how bitter or jealous you are, it’s useless. Judging from your boss’s behavior that night, he’s not interested in men."
"I suggest you give up early. Falling in love with someone you shouldn’t love is bound to end in tragedy."
At first, Luke didn’t react, but after a few seconds, his eyes widened, trembling with anger: "You, what nonsense are you talking about! Are you crazy? You actually said I have...those feelings for our boss! You are a lunatic, spouting nonsense!"
Aria Rowlett looked at him and snickered, "Isn’t it the truth? Luke’s hostility toward me must be because you have that kind of feeling for your boss? You feel I’m your love rival, so you dislike me, hate me. I can understand all that."
"So, I can’t be bothered to bicker with you."
"But still, I want to advise you, falling in love with a straight man is bound to end in tragedy. It’s better to let go sooner rather than later. It’s better to suffer a brief pain than prolonged agony."
Watching Luke, who was about to jump up in anger, Aria Rowlett felt secretly delighted.
She had long been fed up with him.
Every time he looked at her, he wore a face that suggested she owed him at least one hundred million dollars.
