Chapter 74: Chapter 74: Meeting with Daddy’s Boy (II)

Eve was about to finish her coffee when she finally saw Pierre walking into the restaurant.

He looked just like the last time she saw her; messy.

Patchy beards, unkempt hair, typical dirty jeans and flannel shirt, and most importantly, an obvious beer belly.

Pierre had always been messy, and Eve simply refused to ’take care’ of him like he was a baby. He didn’t even have a job. How come he had all the time in this world and still couldn’t take care of his appearance?

Of course, Eve never said any of this right to his face. However, she couldn’t help her facial expression whenever she saw Pierre lounging on the sofa with his phone all day.

He was doing absolutely nothing, and it was outrageous for a disciplined woman like Eve.

Pierre saw Eve at the corner of his eyes and hurriedly walked to her table and sat facing her. He looked nervous and didn’t dare to look Eve in the eyes.

"H-have you been waiting long?" Pierre asked.

Eve wasn’t bothered with it and asked immediately, "What do you want to talk about? I don’t have much time."

"I-I want to—" Pierre hesitated. He wanted to say that he was sorry, but even he knew that was very hypocritical of him.

He was the one who almost ruined her company by leaking a confidential document and would do it again soon.

Honestly, he also didn’t know why he decided to meet with Eve today.

But he had been ridden by guilt. He had a lot of resentment towards Eve for not being the perfect woman that he wanted, but the more he stayed with Julia, the more he realized that he preferred Eve much more than her mother.

Eve was more lively, while her mother was so subservient that it got boring fast.

He also learned that going against Alex was terrifying and stressful. Whenever he imagined his cousin’s wrath, Pierre would be so scared that he almost pissed himself.

Thus, he said, "I-I just want you to know that I’d release another document in five days. So you need to be prepared."

...

Eve scoffed as she thought the situation was ridiculous, "I don’t understand why you would need to say this, Pierre. Do you want to mock me, knowing that I can’t do anything against you? Do you like the power you currently have?"

Pierre had to admit that seeing how desperate Eve became was one of the thrills he never experienced. But after realizing that she had Alexander Langford as her backing, that excitement died fast, and now there was nothing but boundless worry in his head.

His dad, Roger Dust, told him everything would be fine as long as Pierre followed his instruction, but he was still restless nevertheless.

"I... I just want you to tell Alex that I’m just being instructed by my dad. So, if Alex gets so angry because of this problem, please tell him to spare me at least," Pierre said. He didn’t say it directly, but from his tone, it was rather obvious that he was begging.

...

Eve sipped her coffee and put the cup back into its ceramic saucer with a clack.

She scoffed again, but not out of sarcasm this time. She almost burst out laughing right now, because what Pierre said was utterly foolish.

"Do you even hear yourself right now? You cheated on me with my own MOTHER, stole all the confidential documents that are the lifeline of my agency, then intentionally leaked them one by one just because your dad told you so," Eve said in one breath. "And now, you want me to persuade Alex to forgive you? Oh, you dimwit, you don’t even know how fucked you are."

Everyone in the restaurant began glancing at them and eavesdropping on the fight between Eve and Pierre.

Eve didn’t care if everyone in here listened because if she had to be honest, the whole world needed to know how crazy the situation she was in right now.

Pierre’s face turned red when Eve chided him. He was so embarrassed as everyone looked at him and judged him.

Though he might not understand much, he still understood that everything he did was awful.

Despite his guilt and shame, he still had to find a way to save himself, just in case his father was unable to fight against Alex in the future.

"T-then, what am I supposed to do to be forgiven by him?"

"Maybe stop listening to your father by releasing those documents? It’s even better if you just hand them all to me now," Eve sneered.

"I-I can’t do that. My dad will be angry..." Pierre replied weakly.

As much as he feared Alex, he still feared and idolized his father more.

To him, his father was the epitome of an Alpha male, a perfect specimen that should be worshipped.

"Then we’re done with this nonsense," Eve finished coldly as she stood up.

"W-wait, Eve, you’re my only lifeline. Please, I’m scared!" Pierre exclaimed as he also hurriedly stood up and tried to follow her out of the restaurant.

Eve turned around to face this wimpy bastard. He still dared to say that he was scared. Did he not know how scared Eve was when she thought that everything she worked hard for was about to crash and burn right in front of her eyes?!

"You have no right to be scared when you’re still hiding under your dad’s armpit! Ugh, I can’t believe I was engaged with an idiot like you!" Eve shouted. She took the engagement ring out of her bag and threw it to Pierre. "Here’s your goddamn ring. Just so you know, I can buy hundreds of that same ring, you cheap scum!"

Pierre was trying to catch the ring when Eve threw it to him. Unfortunately, he wasn’t fast enough, and the ring rolled under the seat.

The moment he retrieved it while sweeping under the seat, Eve had already stormed out of the restaurant.
