Chapter 21 Poker Face
Aurelia carefully distanced herself from him. When she was about to turn around to see who was coming, he flashed behind her again…
After a few rounds of this, Aurelia got angry and shouted into the air, “Are you here to fight or to play tricks on me? If you want to fight, just go for it. What kind of man are you if you keep hiding?”
A man snorted coldly from behind.
It was just a cold snort, and Aurelia immediately got goose bumps all over her body. Could it be that Callum’s… poker face…
As she expected, the next moment, a familiar figure came into her sight.
The mocking smile on the man’s lips stung Aurelia’s eyes. She forgot for a moment that he was very skilled. She gritted her teeth and challenged him, “If you want to be beaten, just say so. What are you laughing at? Aren’t you afraid of laughing your teeth off?”
The man put his hands in his suit trouser pockets and looked lazily at the little girl opposite him. “It seems that you have done something that makes people laugh their teeth off?”
Aurelia was young and hot-tempered. She couldn’t stand the provocation and punched the man directly.
Callum dodged it easily and continued to goad her, “If you act this rude, be careful that no one will want you in the future!”
After missing several times, Aurelia was already furious, “None of your business! Even if all men on earth become extinct, it’s not your turn to want me!”
“I…?” The man’s eyes suddenly turned deep, as if he was carefully savoring the three words she said.
“Oh… want me to…” A malicious smile appeared on the corner of his lips, making Aurelia blush suddenly.
She finally realized that this man was not only hateful, but also a scoundrel!
She was so angry that she really wanted to grab Callum’s expressionless face that stole the reputation and deceived the world!
Just as Aurelia was about to strike again, Callum’s phone rang in his pocket. He ignored his phone and quickly grabbed the woman’s fist, pushing her against the wall.
He put one hand in his trouser pocket and turned off the ringing phone. With the other hand, he grabbed her wrist and put it around her neck. His right knee was against the wall between her legs. The upper bodies of the two were pressed tightly together, and Aurelia was restrained so that she couldn’t move.
The man’s hot breath sprayed on her face, which was a bit itchy. She raised her hand to scratch it, but as soon as she raised it, he pressed her against the wall with his other hand.
…
“Last time, you almost made me exterminate my descendants. Let’s settle the score now. For example, how about you…?”
Rory, who had finally found him, almost vomited blood and died from those few words. The big client at the private club had been waiting impatiently, and he called Mr. Finnegan several times but no one answered, so he was scared and looked for him everywhere.
After searching for a long time without success, he suddenly remembered Aurelia here and thought of trying his luck here. As a result, he really found Mr Finnegan here.
And… I also saw Mr Finnegan flirting with a girl.
Oh, it’s fate! It seems that Mr. Finnegan will fall into the hands of Mrs. Finnegan.
Aurelia’s face was red as blood. To be honest, she had always been carefree and had never been teased by a man like this. Callum was definitely the first…
An old man is an old man, saying dirty words one after another, making her really not know how to respond to his shameless words, “Let me go, or I will scream!”
“You shout!” the man had a very casual expression.
When Aurelia was about to shout, she saw Rory standing not far away. She was like seeing a savior, “Assistant Gallagher, little brother, your Mr. Finnegan is upset, please come and save me!”
Rory was so scared that he turned around and ran away, “I didn’t hear anything!” Dare to interfere in his affairs in front of the boss, does he want to die?
Besides, the love between the couple is none of his business…
Madam, take care!
“Hey, Assistant Gallagher!” Aurelia looked at the man desperately as he disappeared around the corner of the alley.
There was a bathroom near the alley, and it was strange that there was no one using the bathroom at the moment, leaving her with no one to call for help.
Phew! Okay, okay, it’s her bad luck! A good man never suffers a loss in front of him. Aurelia put away all her emotions, smiled silently and looked at the man in front of her, “Mr. Finnegan, please be magnanimous and don’t bother with a woman like me, how about that?”
Unexpectedly, the man looked her up and down, with a look of sarcasm on his face, “Just you? And a woman?”
There is not a bit of the gentleness that a woman should have in her body, and her figure… well… although it is not bad, it does not meet the standards.
Callum moved his hand downwards, and Aurelia froze. He! He! He actually… actually took advantage of her again!
Oh my god! Ahhhh! She tried to suppress the man with all her strength, but it was useless no matter how hard she tried. Her face turned red and she gritted her teeth at him, “Callum, you bastard!”
The man smiled faintly, knowing that she was very angry, and then slowly let her go. When he spoke again, he had returned to his usual indifference, “Next time you see me, take a detour!”
He is a married man…
When Aurelia appeared on the street with an angry face, Liana had already sung several songs with her guitar. Only a few people around stopped to listen to her singing seriously, and the others basically just passed by and took a look.
Liana finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Aurelia come back after disappearing for nearly half an hour.
At the end of the song, only one person put five dollars in the iron box in front of the instrument…
In fact, Liana is a very good singer. The reason why they were able to get along together was because they had a common hobby: singing.
Aurelia’s voice might be a little better, but without any guidance from anyone, it just sounds good and has no technicality.
She let out a breath, put her annoying Hubby behind her, picked up the guitar, and slowly said, “I see your monsters, I see your pain. Tell me your problems, I’ll chase them away…”

Rory and the waiter pushed open the door of the private room, and Callum’s tall figure appeared at the door.
The man who was angry because Callum was more than ten minutes late immediately shut up and quickly put on a flattering smile to greet him, “Mr. Finnegan, you are finally here!”
“Yeah.” Callum glanced at the man’s outstretched hand indifferently, ignored it, and sat down in an empty seat.
The man behind him looked extremely unhappy, but considering his identity, he still approached cautiously, “Mr. Finnegan, come here, I’ll fill your glass first.”
Rory spoke up appropriately, “Sorry Mr. Li, Mr. Finnegan has a bad stomach recently and can’t drink.”
Mr. Li was becoming more and more embarrassed. It was clearly the zl Group that had approached him for cooperation today, but why was it that Callum wanted to take control of the situation and become the host here?
