Chapter 1143: Chapter 1143: The Condition is to Make a Day’s Appointment With Her Chapter 1143: Chapter 1143: The Condition is to Make a Day’s Appointment With Her She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. Once she was sure her emotions were under control, she continued looking into the man’s eyes and said, “Are you really planning to compete with Baron Lawrence for someone?”

What was he thinking?

Was it worth it?

“That’s my business,” Lyle Westbrook turned away his eyes, avoiding her questioning gaze, and said indifferently.

Emilia Goldsmith felt wounded by his ‘my business’ as if she were bleeding profusely. It took all her strength to restrain herself, her lips bitter as she forced a smile, “Why should I help you? I like you, but you like someone else. Now you’re asking for my help with the very person who could be considered my rival – why should I do it?”

Why should she?

Why should she offer help?

Lyle Westbrook seemed to anticipate her response, his peach blossom eyes undisturbed as he uttered a sound of agreement, his rose-colored lips parted to say, “I told you that I only want your help if you’re willing to give it after hearing me out. If you’re not, then forget it.”

Emilia had the feeling like she was punching cotton, her heart so uncomfortable it was as if she had a terminal illness. Suddenly, she spoke out, “I can help you, but I have a condition.”

“What condition?”

She took another deep breath, “Date me.”

“…” Lyle Westbrook frowned slightly.

Emilia Goldsmith looked at him as if to challenge him, “Starting now, after we finish this cup of coffee, we’ll go on a date, just for today. If you satisfy this wish of mine, I’ll help her. I won’t go back on my word! How about it?”

Emilia Goldsmith knew how to love and how to lose.

If she didn’t like someone, she would openly show her disinterest and wouldn’t engage in underhanded tactics behind their back.

So, as long as he fulfilled her wish, she would help! She wasn’t the type to verbally agree but then deliberately delay the help; she meant to truly assist.

Lyle Westbrook gazed at her deeply and agreed, “Okay.”

Despite his agreement, Emilia Goldsmith felt an indescribable bitterness in her heart.

Just then, the waiter brought over the cappuccino. Emilia Goldsmith took a few sips before putting the coffee cup down, “Let’s go, I want to go shopping.”

Lyle Westbrook didn’t like crowded places but still stood up.

Emilia Goldsmith picked up her purse and walked ahead, while he maintained a step behind.

Just as they were about to leave the café, Emilia Goldsmith, walking slightly ahead, suddenly stopped. She waited for him to catch up and looped her arm through his. Before he could speak, she preempted him, “For today, you’re my boyfriend. It’s not excessive to walk arm in arm with my own boyfriend, right?”

Lyle Westbrook’s brow tightened a bit, but in the end, he said nothing and let her lead him out the door.

The café staff watched them leave before gathering to gossip, “Quinn, didn’t you just say they’re not boyfriend and girlfriend? They’re arm in arm, clearly a couple. You must be confused because the handsome guy gave you a glass of lemon water and started babbling nonsense.”

The questioned waitress blushed in her defense, “I didn’t! It’s true, I heard the beautiful woman questioning the handsome guy if he liked someone else. If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t have spilled the coffee and burned my own hand. Everything I said was true.”

“Alright, we believe you. But it’s strange, if they’re not a couple, why so intimate?”

“The world of the wealthy is hard to understand. The more you see, the more you get used to it. Who cares, anyway.”

“True that. At least we got to lay eyes on a handsome guy.”
