I fled in disarray, feeling defeated.


    When I emerged from thepany, I realized it was pouring rain outside. Frustrated, I stood at thepany entrance, knowing it would be challenging to hail a taxi in such heavy rain. I was looking for my phone to call a friend to see if anyone could pick me up. However, I suddenly realized I had left my bag upstairs in my haste.


    Today is not my day!


    As I contemted borrowing a phone from someone nearby, a morous woman suddenly began mocking me.


    “What’s the matter? Did Roan kick you out? Ran all the way to the top floor, and Roan didn’t give you a good reception, huh?”


    “Don’t daydream. How could a wealthy and handsome man like Roan be interested in an old woman like you?”N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner.


    I looked at the woman in front of me, with curvaceous figures and an ample bosom, disying signs of cosmetic enhancements. Apparently, she considered me a rival.


    How could I lose? Just as I was about to give her a lesson, a ck Porsche Cayenne came to a halt in front of us. The window rolled down, revealing Roan’s stern profile.


    “Get in,” he said, keeping his words concise.


    The woman beside me suddenly showed a surprised expression. She straightened her posture, shyly brushed her hair behind her ear, and prepared to get into the car with a smile.


    “Oh, thank you so much, I apologize for the inconvenience. ” the cosmetically enhanced woman coquettishly said, sending shivers down my spine.


    “Still standing there? Should I get out of the car?” Roan seemed visibly impatient, turning to look at me.


    The cosmetically enhanced woman hesitated for a moment, only then realizing that Roan’s invitation was for me, not her.


    “Sorry, he’s just taken a liking to an old woman like me,” I said with a smirk.


    She seemed to feel greatly wronged, eyes brimming with tears. She looked back and forth between me and Roan, she stomped her foot and ran into the rain.


    “Hahaha…” I burst intoughter as soon as I got into the car.


    Roan, however, remained silent for a while, seemingly lost in thought. After a moment, he spoke.


    “You misspoke just now.”


    I immediately sat up, hastily trying to exin.


    “You misunderstood. I was just trying to provoke her when I said you were interested in me…”


    “Not an old woman,” Roan suddenly interrupted me.


    “What?”


    I was bewildered.


    “I said you’re not an old woman. You’re a lovely sister.”
