Chapter 76 A Battle Between Two Men
Chapter 76 A Battle Between Two Men
The next morning, they gathered outside the villa.
Rhys and Stefan came out. When Martha came, Hollie had just walked out of the other villa. There
were just the four of them.
"Let's go."
The manager looked at them and could not help but ask, "Mr. Williams, Mr. Harrison, it seems that one
lady has not come. Should we wait for her?"
"Joann? She is not feeling well and is resting in her room." Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Hollie said, with a calculating glint in her eye.
Joann didn't come because she had to get Joann to do something while everyone was gone.
"It doesn't matter whether she's here or not."
Rhys said lightly and looked languish.
In his opinion, there were too many third wheels coming on this trip.
Especially Stefan.
He looked sideways at Stefan and happened to meet his gaze.
The two looked at each other coldly and seemed to be in a silent battle again.
Standing in the middle of the two, Martha felt tensions growing between them, but she did not care.
She totally ignored them.
She looked at the manager and said, "It's getting late. Let's go to the development zone."
"But..."
The manager hesitated, and turned to look at the two men. Since they didn't give any orders, he didn't
know what to do.
Rhys seemed to make things difficult for him on purpose and said sullenly, "I am not in the mood to
work today."
Martha couldn't help frowning.
What did he want to do?
"Mr. Williams, Since you are not in the mood to work today, how about I show you around the nearby
scenic spot?"
The manager said this and didn't get any reply from Rhys, but he did not feel embarrassed at all and
said, "There are local residents on the island and there is a scenic spot right next to the residential
area. Should I show you around it, Mr. Williams?"
"Of course. Only by being familiar with the place can we develop it."
Rhys arched his eyebrow and seemed satisfied with today's arrangement.
He then winked at Martha, who grimaced in displeasure.
Rhys just made an excuse so that they could hang out together.
And he had found an excuse that she could not refuse.
Stefan and Hollie were still here, and yet Rhys was trying to make them think she have an affair with
him, and to make them believe she was here just to hang out with him?
The manager heard this and instantly laughed.
"Mr. Williams, you are right. Only with a comprehensive understanding can we better work on the
project."
Rhys cracked a smile, looked at Stefan, and asked, "Mr. Harrison, if you are not interested in it, you
can go back and Ms. Doyle and I can go alone."
Hearing this, Hollie started to think.
'Although Rhys doesn't show any respect to me and always embarrasses me, he seems to have a
crush on Martha.'
'It's an advantage for me to make use of.'
Thinking of this, Hollie smiled and grabbed Stefan's arm.
"In that case, Stefan, let's go back."
Stefan frowned, got ride of her hand and said in a cold voice, "It seems fun. We should go together."
He sounded really unhappy.
"But..." Hollie opened her mouth and had wanted to say something more when she was interrupted by
him, "If you are tired, go back to rest."
"No. Not at all," Hollie answered at once, obviously feeling unhappy.
She could see that Stefan cared about Martha, and he came here for Martha.
Why? Why had he changed so much in only four years?
He used to love her with all his heart.
But now... he only cared about Martha.
