Chapter 690 Had a Fling a Long Time Ago

Recently, Craig’s life was terrible. First and foremost, one after another, the wealthy women blocked him. After that, his company had directly suppressed him and inexplicably canceled all his commercial activities.

Of course, he knew that Jack was the one behind all these acts.

However, Craig was not at all anxious and instead felt at ease while becoming a ‘househusband’. He stayed home, ate, drank, and enjoyed himself on a daily basis. The only outdoor activity that he had was to get some food for Winona at a nearby restaurant.

Unfortunately, he was so used to living a lavish lifestyle that all of his savings were gone. Therefore, he naturally set his target on Winona.

On this day, Craig came to Winona with a lunch box as per usual. When he watched her eat the food, he pretended to speak casually, “Uh… Winona, can you lend me your credit card first? The company still hasn’t paid me and my money has almost dried up. It’s fine if it’s just me, but I have to cook for you every day—”

 

When she heard that, she immediately grabbed her purse and took out one of her credit cards. However, just when she was about to hand it over, she suddenly remembered something and deliberately slowed down her movement.

“Craig, there’s one thing I don’t understand. What happened between you and Mr. Jack? Why did you two get into a fight as soon as you met?”

 

“Why else? Jack saw that I was younger than him and had received a lot of attention. So, out of his jealousy toward the juniors, he intentionally targeted me.” At the mention of Jack, Craig pulled a long face and looked annoyed.

“Why do you say so? Mr. Jack is a good person who has even helped me a lot before. He’s not the kind of person who would do such a thing.” Winona was puzzled.

“So, what do you mean to tell me?” Craig asked expressionlessly, “Do you think I’m the one at fault? Do you think I’m the one who purposely slandered him and tried to damage his reputation? Winona, who’s your boyfriend exactly?”

“Of course it’s you!” She did not expect him to be triggered this much. Hence, she hurriedly explained, “I didn’t mean that. I simply think that making a friend is better than making an enemy. If you can find out the source of the problem, maybe we can eliminate this animosity between the both of you. You know that it’s better to make friends than enemies in our industry.”

“Oh, come on!” Craig derisively dismissed her thoughts. “I don’t care if I have offended a hypocrite like him. So, what’s the big deal?”

At that note, he paused again. Then, he looked at Winona with suspicion. “Could it be that you have feelings for him?”
