Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson)

Chapter 160

I took a deep breath and replied, “Mr. Walker!”

“So, you finally decided to take my call.” Eric’s voice sounded like he was grinding his teeth.

“Mr. Walker, I’m afraid you’ve misunderstood me. My apologies; he didn’t want to miss his calls. My

phone ran out of battery, sir.” I explained in a soft-spoken manner.

“Did your phone run out of battery? What a convenient excuse.” He made it clear that he doesn’t

believe

my

words.

Still, I didn’t care if he believed me or not. “I’m sorry, Mr. Walker. How may I help you, sir?”

“Can’t you speak straight?” He looked pretty pissed off.

“I apologize, Mr. Walker. May I know what I did to upset you?”

“Get rid of that disgustingly formal way of speaking!”

“Of course, Mr. Walker. What do you want from me?” I changed the way I spoke and stopped calling

him ‘sir’ in every other

sentence.

Still, Eric wasn’t satisfied and acted a little irrationally by retorting, “Can’t I call you for no reason?”

What’s with his temper? I think someone else has upset him and he’s using me to vent his anger. The

world is really going to shit. The longer I live, the further downhill I go. I can’t believe I became

someone else’s punching bag. If only I didn’t need him in my schemes… Who does he think he is?

Controlling my temper, I gripped the phone tightly without saying anything. So he asked me over the

phone again, “Why aren’t you saying anything?”

“I do not know what to say. I don’t want to say the wrong things.”

“You sure know what to say to piss me off.” After that, Eric hung up angrily on me.

I don’t know why he lost his temper, but I should be the one angry!

Looking at the name ‘Rick’ on my phone screen I found it extremely irritating. So I changed his name

from ‘Rick’ to Eycho Client.

Isabella soon called me back and said that Dylan was willing to meet me. So I was very happy. After

work, I called Carson to let him know I was accompanying Jessica on a blind date.

When Carson heard the news, he was pretty unhappy about it. However, he didn’t say anything and

simply told me to take care of my health, not eat junk food and come home early.

Later, I accompanied Jessica and we went clothes shopping, then we hurried to the Western restaurant

Dylan had booked. When we arrived, Dylan was already there. When he saw Jessica and I arriving, he

politely rose to greet us. So I gave you a simple introduction. After that, we sat in our respective seats

and started ordering.

It seemed that Jessica had a good impression on Dylan. She actively chatted, bringing up various

topics. On the other hand, Dylan was smiling the entire time and seemed to like Jessica too. Seeing

that they were getting along very well, I decided to make an excuse and run away after dinner.

To my surprise, Dylan suggested going to the First Royal Court after dinner. In addition, he invited

Isabella and her husband, as well as several other friends. The First Royal Court was the largest, most

luxurious and most expensive clubhouse in Riverdale. It was a haven for the rich, and a certain amount

of prestige was needed just to join the club. I had no interest in places like that. However, Jessica was

different – she really wanted to try it and refused to let me leave. Thus, I was dragged to the First Royal

Court.

Dylan booked a large room at the club and invited many of his friends. Although Jessica wasn’t close to

any of them,

she was an adaptable woman. Soon, she met the people there and was dragged by one of Dylan’s

friends to sing along. Meanwhile, Isabella had gone to enjoy herself too. Since it was too awkward for Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Dylan and me to sit together, I made an excuse to leave the room for some fresh air.

I walked down the hall towards the porch to get some fresh air. Then, unexpectedly, I ran into Camille

in the hall.
