    Chapter 221 Enduring The Misapprehension


    Hearing Abbot''s questioning, Reba stared into his eyes and blinked, wanting him to know that she


    kept silent because she was speechless with shock.


    She was trying to tell him the truth through bodynguage.


    But Abbot hadpletely misunderstood her bodynguage.


    Seeing her blink, he thought she was flirting with him, so he said with a frown, "Colin and Faye are still


    there! Can you stop being so skittish?"


    Reba widened her eyes in shock.


    After Reba bit the bullet and admitted to having a crush on Abbot, the farce finally ended.


    Outside the hotel, when Colin and Faye went to drive the car over, Abbot and Reba waited on the


    steps together.


    Abbot asked, "When did your cousin begin to cheat on me?"


    Reba rolled her eyes, looked at the sky, and said, "It''s been a long time."


    Abbot asked in a deep voice, "She has never fallen in love with me, right? She just likes my money?"


    Hearing this, Reba turned to look at him. Seeing him distressed and disappointed in love, she


    suddenly thought of a love novel she had read a while ago, so she looked straight at him and said, "Are


    you sure you want to know the truth?"


    Abbot nodded, "Yes."


    Reba took a deep look at him, lowered her eyes to pretend to be dejected, and said, "My cousin


    has always liked snatching my things since childhood. As long as I take a fancy on something, she will


    try to snatch it over."


    Abbot asked with a straight face, "What do you mean?"


    Reba looked up at him with her eyes full of "guilt" and said, "It was all my fault. She doesn''t like you


    at all, and she dated you to make me upset."


    Abbot pursed his lips silently, not knowing what to say.


    He thought that he was miserable because he had been made use of by Reba''s cousin to hurt her.


    But he also felt sorry for Reba. She loved himself so much, but he had fallen in love with her


    nemesis.


    When Abbot was thinking about their love triangle, Colin stopped the car in front of him and honked the


    horn.


    When Abbot came back to his senses, Reba had already gone downstairs.


    After she bent over and got into the car, she looked at Colin in the rearview mirror, forced a smile, and


    said, "Mr. Farrell, thank you!"


    Colin replied calmly, "Don''t mention it. After all, we''re friends."


    Reba smiled wryly, "You can rest assured. I will put in a good word for you with Faye."


    Colin said casually, "Good! We will help each other."


    Hearing him say so with such a serious expression, Reba doubted herself for a second, suspecting


    that she had misunderstood him.


    Maybe he had said those words to Abbot because he wanted to help her?


    When Reba was deep in thought, Abbot opened the door on the other side and got into the car.


    Seeing him, she immediately denied her previous spection.


    No, Colin did not want to help her.


    He was afraid his stupid friend would die alone without getting married, so he wanted to fix them up!


    The car ran slowly and finally stopped outside a restaurant.


    After the four of them got out of the car and walked toward the restaurant, Reba took Faye''s arm,


    slowed down her steps, and whispered, "Colin is too scheming."


    Faye looked straight ahead and smiled, "Didn''t you say he is not bad two days ago? You even called


    him your ''strategic partner''."


    Reba retorted, "That''s why I say he is scheming. He seems to be making friends with me, but he


    wants to infiltrate the enemy."


    Faye smiled and changed the subject, asking, "What do you want to eat? Colin''s treat."


    Hearing this, Reba grinned evilly, "I will order the most expensive dish."


    Faye said, "No problem. You can ask for a takeaway when we leave."


    Reba nodded in agreement. After taking two steps, she turned to look at Faye and said, "I felt


    somehow weird when you spoke to me just now."


    Faye asked indifferently, "What''s wrong?"


    Reba replied, "When you said I can order a takeaway, your tone sounded as if you and Colin were a


    real couple!"


    Faye''s ears flushed when she said, "Stop talking nonsense."


    Reba thoughtfully stared at her for a moment before asking, "How are you feeling about him now?"


    Faye looked at Colin''s back, pursed her lips, and replied, "The same as before."


    Reba said, "You''re weird. Colin is handsome and appears in front of you every day. Why don''t you


    have feelings for him?"


    Faye''s eyelids trembled slightly, but she didn''t answer the question.

    The manager of the restaurant knew Colin and Abbot, so he greeted them with a pleasing smile as


    soon as seeing them, saying, "Mr. Farrell, Mr. Carter, good evening."


    Colin said in a low voice, "Old ce."


    The manager said, "Since you said you liked that room, I have never let anyone have meals in it."


    While ttering Colin, the manager led them to the room respectfully.


    After they were all seated, the manager took a menu over from a waiter and asked, "Mr. Farrell, Mr.


    Carter, who will order ?"


    Colin raised his eyes to look at him and said in a t tone, "There are twodies here. Why do you ask


    us to order?"


    The manager was embarrassed for a while, and then, he lightly pped himself in the face and said


    with a fake smile, "I''m sorry. I''m too timid, so I don''t dare to look directly at thedies with you. I was


    looking at you all the time."


    High EQ individuals knew what to say to solve the problem after making a mistake.


    The manager''s words pleased Colin, so thetter said, "You are smart."


    The manager then handed the menu to Faye with a smile and said, "Ladies, this is our menu."


    Faye took it over, thanked him, and handed it to Reba.


    Reba flipped through the menu and unceremoniously ordered the most expensive dishes.


    Then, she looked at Colin with a smile and said, "Mr. Farrell, you won''t feel bad because I ordered


    those expensive dishes, right?"


    Colin smiled without replying, leaned back in the seat, looked up at the manager who was holding the


    menu and said solemnly, "Prepare ten takeaways for thisdy. The dishes must be the same as those


    of our dinner."


    The manager nodded, "OK, Mr. Farrell."


    Reba was amazed by his generosity.


    After the manager left, the four people in the room started chatting casually.


    When Abbot was talking to Colin about a recent investment project, Colin''s phone suddenly rang.


    Seeing it was Ethan who was calling after he took out his phone, he answered the call without


    hesitation and said, "What''s up?"


    Then, Ethan said in a cold voice on the other end of the phone, "Colin,e here. Hank came to my


    home."
