Chapter 33 What Do You Like About Me?
“Wearing it on your ring finger means you’re engaged or married.”
Cara said calmly.
Cole’s finger stiffened.
“And you’re not wearing it wrong. This is an engagement ring.”
Cara continued.
The words stunned Cole. “This…” “If you dare take it off, you won’t be able to walk out of this door.”
Cara threatened him. Cole bitterly smiled. “I didn’t plan to take it off, but what happened between us…”
Some things could not be done just by forcing
it.
The difference between the two of them was like that between heaven and earth.
Cole’s feelings for Cara had gradually become subtle. He could even admit that he was starting to develop feelings for her.
This woman had saved him several times when he was at his lowest.
When everything around him was gray, Cara was the only color in his world.
However, this was not a reason for him to accept a marriage with her.
They were not suitable!
However, Cara picked up her knife and fork again and domineeringly interrupted Cole. “If you don’t plan to take it off, you can shut up.” Cole could only smile bitterly.
The ring in his hand was surprisingly suitable. The size seemed to be tailor-made for him.
However, Cole could see that this ring was probably older than him.
Its color made that obvious; the ring was not new.
“You plan to start a business?”
Cara suddenly asked him.
Cole was looking at the ring when he heard this. After some hesitation, he answered, “Sort
of.”
“If I hadn’t asked, were you not going to tell me?”
Cara looked at Cole and asked.
Cole shook his head. “I didn’t think I would make any money, so I didn’t mention it to you.”
He did not take this matter too seriously.
“That’s it?”
Cara looked at Cole. “Then do you want to come to the company to work?”
Cole hesitated, then rejected her again. “I’m not suitable.”
Whether it was in terms of status or ability, Cole felt that he could not enter the Williams Corporation.
“Actually, if you’re willing to accept the engagement, I can let the entire Sky City know that you’re my man tomorrow. At that time, all problems can be solved,” Cara calmly said.
In fact, Cara was not afraid that the public would know she was getting engaged to Cole.
She was the leader of a large corporation, not a celebrity
Relationships had little impact on her.
If this matter were to be exposed, the Williams family could still protect itself and approve it more appropriately.
However, Cara knew that Cole had never thought of relying on her family’s power.
From an outsider’s point of view, this was not very smart.
But Cara knew that Cole had always been like this.
He had never liked to take shortcuts. It was obvious from the untouched 1.5 million dollars in his bank account.
Cara had used her private account to transfer money to Cole because she wanted to take care of him, not that she was afraid of being exposed.
She would eat in a remote villa because she was worried that Cole’s dignity would be hurt otherwise.
This was Cara’s gentleness.
Although it was a little domineering.
Cole sighed when he heard this. “Miss Williams, there are some things I’m not worthy
of.”
Even if he and Cara could ignore worldly opinions, Cole could not ignore his own thoughts.
His marriage to Cara would not help her at all.
In fact, he was a burden.
A live-in son-in-law.
“If I say you’re worthy, you are worthy.”
Cara William stated in a domineering tone.
Even if Cole’s background was not good, in three months, she could raise his value by a hundred times.
Cole remained silent.
Suddenly, he looked up at Cara without moving his eyes and said, “Miss Williams, can I ask you a question?”
“Yes.”
“Can I know what you like about me?”
Cara quietly looked at Cole. “Do you want to die?”
Cole: “…”
Twenty minutes later…
Cole left the villa.
He left wearing a ring.
Before he left, Cara said to him, “If you want to treat me to a meal in the future, be direct. There’s no need to beat around the bush.”
He nodded.
Cole did not dare to tell Cara that he just wanted to thank her in person. There was no other meaning
If he had said it, Cara would probably throw the knife and fork on the dining table at him the next second.
***
Looking at Cole’s back, Cara fell into deep thought.
Cara had first come into contact with Cole eight months ago
She just wanted to see where this man who made the ring shine came from.
After making contact with him, Cara had a good impression of Cole.
Cole was diligent and ambitious.
Moreover, he was very handsome.
Since he had good internal and external specs, Cara naturally would not reject him.
At that time, Cara had gone further and hired him as her private coach. She planned to see if the ring would react more closely.
But she didn’t expect Cole to reject her.
He had been afraid that his girlfriend Jane Smith would be jealous.
At that time, Cara had felt like teasing him. That was why she had said that he could look for her if he didn’t want to work hard.
Hence, she was a little surprised when she received a call for help in the middle of the night.
At first, saying that they were getting married was just Cara’s empty words. However, because of the multiple rejections by Cole, she had become angry and said those words to the media.
In her opinion, when she did not want to get married, she could just take those words back the next day.
There was no official invitation, nor was there any legal effect. How could it restrain her?
These engagement remarks that were spread out in the public opinion could be taken back if they wanted to.
But there were some things.
It had happened so inexplicably and ambiguously.
Cara did not really want to take it back now.
***
Cole’s neighborhood!
“I’m home.”
Cole sent a message to Cara. After getting a reply, he lay on the bed.
In a daze, he looked at the dazzling lights on the ceiling
What had happened these few days was like a dream.
However…
Cole glanced at the ring on his ring finger.
All of this was true.

When he woke up the next day, it was already 9.30 am.
The red wine he had drunk last night was strong.
Even after waking up, he still had the urge to close his eyes.
I asked Cara that question last night…
It was really because of the red wine.
He rubbed his head.
His computer was still turned off.
On the computer, the thick words on the recruitment page reminded him that he was still an unemployed person.
However, an even more ear-piercing sound rang out the next second.
His phone rang.
An unfamiliar number!
Cole was stunned. Who Is this?
He picked up the phone.
A familiar voice came from the other end. “Cole, where the fuck are you?”
Flint Smith.
Cole’s expression darkened. “Why did you call me?”
“Stop fucking talking. Where are you?”
Flint’s tone was filled with impatience.
Cole hung up the phone.
So noisy… He blocked Flint’s number.
However, Cole frowned slightly.
Why do I feel a little strange…
