Making 21
Gilmore took out Earl Grey Tea from a ceramic canister and put it into a Brown Betty teapot. He
added water, poured away the water, and then added the water again. After that, he filtered it into
another small teapot and poured out two cups of fresh and mellow Earl Grey Tea.
The entire process was done in an unhurried and methodical manner.
Gilmore’s calmness impressed David.
If it were anyone else, such as billionaire bosses and experienced people in the business world
would be nervous and uneasy in front of the chairman of Evergreen Group, not to mention someone
in their early twenties like Gilmore.
Before David arrived, he had already asked Gerald to inform Gilmore.
Therefore, it was impossible for Gilmore not to know David’s identity.
However, Gilmore was still able to remain calm in front of him. This meant that -Gilmore was no
ordinary individual.
As a result, he didn’t seem to mind his daughter choosing Gilmore as her “boyfriend” to cope with
him and his wife.
Although David thought so, deep in his heart, he still thought that Gilmore could not bepared to
Marco.
Because he knew Marco very well. He knew that the Chapmans and the Fosters were both rich and
powerful families. He also knew that Marco really liked his daughter.
Gilmore put a cup of tea on the tea table in front of David and said, “David, please enjoy the tea.
David hummed, picked up the teacup, took a sip, tasted it carefully, and praised, “This is the newly
picked Earl Grey tea this year. It’s sweet and fragrant, with a lingering fragrance and endless
aftertaste.”
Gilmore also picked up the teacup and tasted it. As David said, the tea was sweet and fragrant, with
lingering fragrance in the lips and teeth.
The tea was good.
However, Gilmore was just presenting Buddha with borrowed flowers.
That was because the Earl Grey tea was left by Christine when Gilmore
vi.
Of course, Gilmore also knew that as the chairman of a giantpany, David did note to visit
him specifically to taste tea.
In fact, he had already asked Christine on WhatsApp when he learned from Gerald that David was
coming to see him.
Christine also told him that her parents had known about the invitation.
Moreover, Christine had specially instructed that no matter what her father asked, Gilmore could not
reveal that he had a fake rtionship with her.
Gilmore agreed readily.
He was still waiting for the fake boyfriend–girl rtionship to be real!
He would never tell his future father–inw that he was a fake boyfriend of Christine.
Putting down the teacup, David calmly looked at Gilmore with great dignity. This was the bearing of
a real business tycoon.
“You’re not really in love with Christine. I know that. I won’t force her to be with Marco. anymore,
and you don’t have to cooperate with her.
Gilmore was surprised to hear that. “So David knows everything?” he thought.
But then he understood. David was a business giant, and he had seen all kinds of people. It was not
surprising that he could see through Christine’s trick.
However, although David had seen through it, Gilmore could not admit it.
It was not only because he was trustworthy and had a spirit of the contract, but also because he
didn’t want to lose such a beautiful girlfriend and even his future wife.
Therefore, Gilmore resolutely replied, “David, you may have misunderstood. Christine and I are truly
in love”
“My daughter gave you this vi, which is worth more than 20 million dors, and she also gave you
a Mercedes Benz that is worth millions. This is the price she asked pretend to be her boyfriend!”
David still looked at Gilmore calmly, but his momentum was stronger as if a mountain was pressing
down on Gilmore.
you to
After a pause, he asked Gilmore, “Do you still want to say that you and Christine are really in love?
21
David had such a powerful aura, and he pressed on step by step. Moreover, he even stated clearly
the truth that Christine used the luxury car and vi as the price for having Gilmore as her fake
boyfriend.
Ordinary people would be so scared that they would kneel directly and tell the truth, and then David
wouldpletely sweep them away from Christine.
But Gilmore was not an ordinary person.
David’s imposing manner had no effect on Gilmore, who had a vast amount of mana.
Even if David knew that Christine had used the vi as a price for Gilmore to pretend to be her
boyfriend, Gilmore would not care.
If he agreed with David who asked him to leave Christine, then he really had to leave.
If he didn’t leave, David wouldn’t be able to control him smoothly, and he would take the initiative to
change the situation.
After figuring out the thing, Gilmore was not in a hurry at all. He added tea to David’s teacup and
said slowly, “David, you’re right. Christine did give me a vi and a luxury
car
He continued, “However, that’s because Christine saw that my family is too poor, so she wants me
to live a good life.”
David smiled and said, “Do you think I’ll believe you?
Gilmore said, “Okay, even if what you said is right, Christine gave me a vi and a luxury car, and I
cooperated with her to act in front of you. But now things have changed. From now on, I am serious
about this rtionship. I really like her. We will be real lovers:
David frowned and stared at Gilmore like a tiger staring at its prey. “Do you mean that you and
Christine were fake lovers in the past, but lovers?”
now you are going to be real
Gilmore picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, “That’s right. From now on, I’m going to truly
date your daughter.
David red at him, and his anger was instantly ignited. “Impudent!”
He mmed his broad palm on the table with a bang!
In an instant, the tea set was overturned and smashed to pieces on the ground. Everything was in a
mess.

The anger on his face gradually receded as he quickly regained his calm. He took out a checkbook

Then, he scribbled something on the checkbook.
After that, David tore off a check, put it in front of Gilmore, and said, “The vi and luxury car thas
