Chapter 234


    Estelle sat opposite him, opening the wine she brought and filling his ss, “I’m not afraid of you bullyin


    g me, I’m just afraid of getting tricked by you again.”

    Manleyughed, “What else would I trick you with? I can’t have two birthdays a year!”


    Estelle retorted, “Are you saying you can’t pull that off?”


    Manley gulped down the wine she poured, his ck earring shimmering with a seductive luster. Heu


    ghed, “Next time, I’ll say it’s my mom’s birthday.”


    Estelle replied coldly, “No matter whose birthday it is, I won’t help you send a cake again!”


    “Pffft!” Manley spurted out the wine and quickly wiped it with a tissue,ughing uncontrobly at Estelle.


    Manley coughed twice, his eyes shining withughter, “Stop being you cute! Or else, I might think you’r


    e trying to seduce me!”


    Estelle red at him with anger, her gaze warning him.


    Manley justughed, “I’m done teasing you. Let’s talk about something else, what are you doing here?”


    Estelle said indifferently, “Working. Can’t you tell?”


    “I mean, why are you working here?” Manley wanted tough again. Somehow, he always wanted to


    ugh when talking with Estelle. Even if she ignored him, he found her hrious.


    If he could get her mad, he’d be even happier!


    Estelle didn’t know what Manley wasughing at and thought


    he was a bit neurotic, “It’s a summer part–time job, do I need any other reasons?”


    “Aren’t you with Jonathan?” Manley asked curiously, “Is the money he gives you not enough? Or are yo


    u guys ying some role–ying game?”


    Estelle said, “I’ll say it one more time, I’m working here, and


    my rtionship with Jonathan has nothing to do with money.”


    Manley’s eyes widened, showing shock, “Then what are you with him for, letting him sleep with you for f


    ree?”


    Estelle’s face darkened, and she remained silent.


    Manley leaned forward, gazing at Estelle through the dim light, and flirted jokingly. “Come with me inste


    ad. I’m more generous than Jonathan and I can treat you better. I won’t bear to


    let you work. I can let you live in a vi, drive a luxury car, wear


    luxury jewelry, carry designer bags, and have ten servants to serve you every


    day. Whatever you want, I’ll buy for you. Wherever you want to go, I’ll apany you. You can spend


    my money as you please, what do you say?”


    Estelle frowned, “Are you looking for someone to help you spend your money?”


    Manley gently nodded, “I just need you


    to help me spend my money. As long as it’s you, even if my money runs out, I won’t feel heartache!”


    Estelle sighed with clear eyes, “Then you’re really pathetic!”


    Manley smiled even more softly, “why am I pathetic?”


    “Your brain is so messed up, but you’re still living so optimistically and strong!”


    Manley choked.


    He gritted his teeth but couldn’t get mad. He chuckled, “I’m not joking with you, I’m serious. If you dump


    Jonathan and follow me, I promise to fulfill everything I just said.”


    Estelle looked at him calmly, “How serious? As serious as thest time you had me send a cake to the


    girl you were pursuing?”


    Manley, “…”


    He showed a helpless expression, “I made a mistakest time, and I apologize to you. Can we forget a


    bout that?”


    Estelle was also generous, nodding, “You helped me out with Lucille Hammer’s issue once, so let’s call


    it even for the cake thing. Thanks for standing up for me today, too! This bottle of wine is my gift to you!


    ”


    Manley said cheerfully, “That’s my girl Estelle! I’ll drink to you! But I’m paying for the


    wine, don’t refuse me!”
