Mr George, Don't Be So Arrogant

Chapter 14 The Two Stayed in the Villa at Night

Euan put Riley on the sofa of the living room when they got back to the villa; there was a first aid box

beside the sofa. It was the same as the night they experienced before. Riley had a frown because she

felt much hurt on her knee as well as she found Euan was much emotionally abnormal on the recent a

couple of days.

Riley had a look at Euan who sat on the sofa reading the document. He leaned on the back of sofa,

looking so cold and elegant; especially then under a floor lamp’s light, his eyelashes cast shadow of a

fan on the lower eyelid.

Riley admitted she would be obsessed with Euan whenever seeing him.

She turned to look at her wound on the knee. She took off the bandage carefully; it was too much pain

that caused her almost scream. The wound got worse and blood was sticky to the bandage which was

greatly difficult to take off. She had to do it slowly.

When Riley was making it, Euan did not see her at all, just saying easily, “You have to live in the villa

recently.”

Riley was surprised to hear it and raised her head to see Euan. Before she asking anything, Euan had

known what she was thinking from her eyes. He turned to another page of his document and said, “I

will not live here with you.”

Riley was some of embarrassed and felt like losing face for Euan’s question. He knew what she was

thinking. But she had to deny it, “Of course I know. I would like to ask you whether someone else will

be here.”

Such as Lydia.

If Euan also lived in the villa, Lydia would come to meet him. She was the last one in the world whom

Riley loved to see.

Euan seemed to be unhappy. He believed Riley said he was someone else.

He said, “Someone else has lived in the villa for three years.”

Riley got to know Euan’s unhappiness, but she did not know what to say. Obviously, both of them were

giving tit for tat to each other, simply but too irritating.

She asked, “Why asked me to live here? My own condo was cozy to live in. I am afraid I should not

bother you in your villa.”

The half of bandage had been off the wound. Riley started to take off the last half, but she was getting

more sweater on forehead with more pain. Finally, she was too angry with Euan to feel the pain

anymore.

The power of anger was so amazing!

Euan said, “Hendrix just returned. He would like to know more about my life and will visit the villa for

sure. But I have not got the exact time.”

So?

Riley said with a cold smile, “We have to play the roles for your younger brother?”

Euan had a look at her. He would like to do anything to stop her from saying these mean words, “You

are not a new player.”

“Thanks to you.”

Riley took off all the bandage and wiped her sweat on the forehead with her hand. She had some pink

on her radiant white face with much sweater as well the pale lips bitten hard by herself. She did not

look so strong for just one second, but it touched someone’s heart.

Riley continued to say, “If you try to let Mr. Hendrix George believe we live here together and deeply

love each other, I need something from you. Even if you don’t plan to live here, could you please send

some of your belongings here and make them easily seen?”

Euan watched her speaking lips and then swift his eyes soon, “Sure.”

Riley applied the medicine on her wound and looked at the big living room. Luxurious and high-class as

it was, the villa was not a perfect one for a family’s life, without warmth and love here.

Euan said, “Please go to buy anything you need.” He got a golden card from the pocket of his suits to

give Riley.

Riley saw the card and asked, “Anything?”

Euan glanced at her with nothing to say.

She was allowed to buy anything she liked with the money or card he gave to her. Nevertheless, Euan

was surprised that Riley had never paid for anything by his credit card as an authorized user in the

three years, even he believed Riley married him only to get wealth.

Sometimes, he was eager to know why Riley married him? Money might not be the only reason; was

there anything else she would like to get?

Riley had her wound well wrapped and said with a smile, “You are so nice. Thank you very much!”

Euan said quietly, “You’re welcome.”

It was getting dark at night. They sat separately with a sofa in the middle, nothing to talk.

It was too quiet and peaceful in the living room. Riley started to enjoy the peace.

Enjoying the peace?

Riley shook her head to keep herself clear; she did not believe Euan also enjoyed the moment.

Euan read the two documents many times, almost keeping all the terms in his mind. He kept doing it to

stay here.

Out of his expectation, he did not feel any disturbed here with Riley whom he considered to be up to

something bad.

This was some different experience with what Euan got for living alone.

Riley decided to leave first. She held the sofa to stand up and had a bit on her lips, talking with the cold

Euan, “I have to take a shower.”

Euan did not expect Riley to tell him she would have a shower. It was common between the husband

and wife. Euan started to imagine just then Riley said “Honey, I have to take a shower.”

“Ok.” Euan said.

Riley did not think Euan was going to live here. It was too late and the time for him to leave. How would

he have a good sleep if leaving too late?

Riley asked him seriously and carefully, “Are you going to leave now?”

Euan was mad soon with her question; she was asking him to go?

He said, “Don’t worry. I hate to live together with you.”

“Great!” Then Riley got upstairs to her bedroom happily and closed the door hard.

Euan threw the documents on the table and stared at Riley’s room on the second floor. He almost lost

his mind to rush to kill her then!

Euan got his mobile phone and dialed his assistant’s number, “Come to YJ Villa to pick me up. Yep,

now!” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Elijah Parker did not understand why his boss was so angry and why did he go to the YJ Villa? He

knew Euan had not been there for three years.

Elijah parked the car just outside the villa. Euan was silent after getting in the car and probably

offended by somebody.

Elijah saw the light was on in the bedroom of the second floor and tried to ask Euan, “Mr. George, did

you forget to turn off the light? Or someone is in the room now?”

He understood what the house was like to Euan. It was a forbidden area in Euan’s life where only Riley

was allowed to come and go freely. Elijah certainly knew who was there in the room.

Euan said angrily, “Don’t bullshit. Get start.”

Elijah made fun of Euan and said, “Hey boss, you are here. Why not stay overnight? Riley rarely comes

to the villa. You should grab the chance.”

Euan continued to say, “Start. Or fuck off.”

Elijah said, “Ok, let’s go.”

Riley had a replaced holiday on the next day.

For the first time, she cost three hours to buy lots of things with Euan’s credit card.

Riley felt greatly satisfied with the full trunk.

But she knew she had to do something more important than tidying up the villa.

Riley locked the villa and drove to the CBD.

She stopped near a top office building and looked up at the office area of her family’s business. giving a

bitter smile.

Riley had not visited here for long time.

Her father had ever done very well in the Watson family’s business before so that her family was

greatly prestigious. Since her younger sister, Freya Watson took over the business, people had not got

any good news about it. On contrast, more gossips about Freya herself was released by the media.

An elegant lady?

A fashion icon?

A new money owner?

Pooh!

Nobody with normal taste would consider Freya to be a new money owner from her public image.

Riley did not work for her family’s business; it was natural that she did not hold any power here. As an

elder daughter in the family, it was still strange that no staff recognized her.

Riley seldom attended social parties. And before she went to an overseas university for a bachelor and

a master degree and stayed there for six years. No wonder few people knew there was an elder

daughter in the Watson family.

It was Freya who was well known and welcomed everywhere.

Riley heard Freya saying, “Meeting? Are you kidding? I have a facial appointment with my sweetie this

afternoon. Don’t you know?”

The secretary answered, “Freya, this is a meeting for our three parties. It will be significant to our

potential cooperation.”

“The guy just wants me to have a date with him! Contact Mr. Zane another day. I will go to meet him.”

“Freya, but…”

“Finish! Go out.”

The angry secretary had to leave Freya’s office soon. She could not accept she was blamed for doing

right jobs.

Riley neither accepted Freya managed the business carried on from their father in such way.

She pushed the door hard to see Freya was playing her gel nails carefully. Freya thought her secretary

came back and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Riley said with a smile, “Don’t you know why I am here?”

The voice surprised Freya who raised her head to see Riley. Freya asked, “Riley, what are you coming

for today?”

Riley walked towards her and said, “You really don’t understand? I think I am the better one to be

here.”

Freya stood up to said aggressively, “Do you regret letting me manage the company? Now intend to

take it?”

Riley sneered, “Are you scaring?”

Freya said, “No. Should I scare of it? Since you are my elder sister?”

Riley sat on the sofa beside the desk and answered calmly, “I am happier if I am not.”

Freya gritted her teeth and said, “I am working, not free to talk more with you.”

Riley sat there with elbows on the desk and two hands holding together. She watched Freya dressed in

luxurious brands as well as her face having been done many plastic surgeries. Freya really hated to

see her and talk with her.

Riley said, “I am not available to chat with you. I come to get your explanation about it.” then she threw

a VCD on the desk. In her mind, she preferred throwing it to Freya’s face to humiliate her.

Freya got it to see, “What’s this?”

Riley said a cold smile, “Watch it please. My dear sister.”

Freya was wondering what it was and turned on the video. She was getting unhappy with watching

more and totally annoyed at last.

“Is it amazing video? Freya, do you like the gift from me?”
