Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss! -
Chapter 1237 A Special Party
"Yo, your Celestia's pretty solid," Micah finally said, breaking the ice with the noble ladies.
"Thanks! Do you remember me?" the young woman replied, all smiles.
"Mr. Clemens, I can speak Celestia too!" another woman butted in.
The first woman tried to keep talking, but her voice got lost in the sea of other noble ladies trying to grab Micah's attention.
They were pulling out all the stops to get Micah to notice them.
But Micah? He barely gave the first woman a second glance. After his comment, he just looked away and kept sipping his drink. No matter what these ladies did, they couldn't seem to catch his interest. "Ms. James, let's head over there," Annika said, sounding a bit anxious. "If we don't move now, Mr. Clemens might start making his pick."
"Let him pick," Sadie replied coolly. "If he really likes someone, I can't stop him."
"But," Annika whispered, "weren't you planning to talk to him?"
"I know, but if I go over now and he recognizes me, it'll be a mess," Sadie said, taking a sip of her drink. "I'll wait until he's alone to approach him."
"What if he's with a woman when he's alone?" Annika asked.
Sadie paused mid-sip, a flicker of panic in her eyes before she regained her cool. "Then I'll wait till he's done. Maybe by then, he'll be in a good mood and not so difficult." Annika was speechless. She knew Sadie was stalling because she didn't know how to face Micah right now.
But if this kept up, their plan might really go down the drain.
"Hey, there are two more noble ladies over there!" someone suddenly shouted.
Annika jumped and saw it was Zachary, who had just come back from the restroom. He spotted her and Sadie on his way back.
Sadie frowned. This was bad; they'd been spotted. Now, they had no choice but to go over.
"Why aren't you two coming over?" Clarence called out. "Hurry up!"
"What do we do?" Annika was flustered. She was usually so decisive, but today, being treated like one of the noble ladies to be chosen had her all mixed up. "Let's go," Sadie said, standing up and walking over calmly.
"Such a prime chance and you two are hiding in the corner," Clarence scolded Sadie in Sunvale. "Good thing Zachary found you, or you would've wasted your night." "Yeah, lucky Mr. Clemens hasn't picked yet," the other men chimed in. "You still got a shot at the swimsuit party!"
"Wait, swimsuit party?" Annika blurted out, shocked.
Sadie gently nudged Annika's arm, and she quickly realized her slip-up. She lowered her head and kept quiet. Andrew, standing behind Micah, suddenly looked up and stared at Annika with a complicated expression. "What? You don't want to?" Clarence asked Annika.
Annika looked at Sadie.
"No, we do," Sadie replied with a smile, deliberately changing her tone in Sunvale to avoid being recognized.
Micah held his wine glass, silently drinking, seemingly oblivious to everything.
"Good, go change then," Clarence said, waving them off. "See you at the pool!"
"Okay," the women immediately went to get ready.
Sadie and Annika also headed to the changing room.
Andrew leaned in and whispered in Micah's ear, "Mr. Clemens, those two just now seemed to be..."
"To the pool," Micah said, getting up and heading toward the outdoor plaza.
"Mr. Clemens can't wait!" The group of men laughed and jeered, and one guy boldly asked, "Mr. Clemens, can we take the ones you don't pick?" "You're too much," Andrew said, annoyed. "This is about finding a companion, not picking a one-night stand."
"Sure!" Micah suddenly replied. "As long as they're down!"
