Chapter 344: Chapter 344: My Honey
Alistair Forrest let out a long sigh and said, "Iāve been looking at stones every single day. Iām getting completely burned out. Itās rare to see a beauty like her, so how could I not be smitten?"
His two bodyguards, familiar with his personality, chose to remain silent. Their young master was smitten by any beauty he saw, let alone one with such a strong personality.
The corners of Alistair Forrestās mouth curved upward. "I want to pursue her. And just like that, itās decided!"
The two bodyguards shook their heads in unison but didnāt try to talk him out of it. After all, while their young master was extremely shrewd in businessāeven known for being as cunning as a foxāhe had an extraordinary fixation on beautiful things. It was about time he hit a wall.
Alistair Forrest stroked his chin and asked his bodyguards, "Tell me, what should I do to get my Honey to notice me?"p>
Since Vera Xavier hadnāt told him her name, he gave her one. He didnāt know why, but even though she hadnāt seemed the least bit gentleāin fact, she was quite fierceāhe just felt she was a "Honey."
One of the bodyguards couldnāt help but ask, "What about that Miss Susan who was arguing with her? She looked pretty good too. Why arenāt you thinking about pursuing her, Young Master?"
Alistair Forrest replied with a look of disdain, "That girl is worlds apart from my Honey. Sheās passable, I guess, but that arrogant attitude, acting like sheās the greatest in the world, is a complete turn-off."
"Also, her looks arenāt even in the same league as Honeyās, okay? Honey is high-class and aloof, a beauty with a kind heart. That other one is just cold and nauseating, an ugly person with a wicked heart. If you ever compare that woman to my sweet Honey again, Iāll fire you!"
The two bodyguards shivered in unison. āYoung Master, your taste is fine, but arenāt you exaggerating just a little?ā
Susan Caldwell wore a cold expression the entire way back. She didnāt look much like Rona Langdon when she smiled, but at this moment, with that grim and vicious look on her face, she bore an uncanny resemblance to her.
Skylar Crowe was crying the entire time. "Susan, why didnāt you stand up for me today?"
The hotel they were staying at was just across the road, not far from Vera Xavierās. The only reason Skylar Crowe had run into Vera today was that sheād heard some flowers were in bloom nearby and had come to see the excitement.
Susan Caldwell felt that Vera Xavier had humiliated her today, and it was all because of Skylar Crowe.
She was incredibly irritated at the moment and had no intention of comforting Skylar Crowe. She said coldly, "Shut up! Youāre the one who started trouble and made a mess, and you even dragged me into it and humiliated me. You have the nerve to blame me?!"
Skylar Crowe froze, stunned. In her mind, Susan Caldwell had always been so good-natured. She couldnāt quite process being spoken to like this.
She couldnāt help but ask, "Susan, why are you being so harsh with me?"
Hearing this, Susan Caldwell took a deep breath. Skylar Crowe was still useful to her; it wasnāt the right time for a complete falling out. Suppressing her temper, she said, "Itās not that I didnāt want to help you. You saw the situation. That woman is obviously not someone to be trifled with, and she had backup. We only had Leo Wright with us. Thereās no way we could have won in a straight-up fight."
"I guess youāre right," Skylar Crowe said with a pout. "That woman is just so arrogant. We have to find a way to teach her a lesson, otherwise sheāll think weāre just a couple of pushovers!"
