Chapter 178: Many Things Can’t Go As One Desires
"Thank you," Yusuf Zuck was driving, with Anna Cooke sitting in the passenger seat. Just now, in front of Elle Petty, Anna had brought up the matter of her whole family wanting to invite Yusuf to dinner.
To outsiders, this might seem like a trivial matter. Even Miles O’brien didn’t mind, but to Elle Petty, it was a big deal. The implications were numerous, and she needed to digest it properly and analyze it meticulously.
Yusuf was a perceptive man, so he also sensed the significance behind her words. That’s why after getting in the car, he expressed his gratitude.
With a smile in her eyes, Anna Cooke glanced at Yusuf, "I’m very curious, how did you manage to win over my sister Xiaoyun!"
"Cough, cough..." Yusuf started to cough awkwardly. He was thanking her, Anna Cooke, yet her mind had wandered off somewhere else.
"Also, don’t tell me you and Louise have nothing going on."
"Hmm, you’re playing coy with my sister Xiaoyun, and behind her back, you’re keeping Louise. Quite impressive!" Anna didn’t hold back her sarcasm.
Yusuf stayed silent and focused on driving, not looking at Anna.
"These are just the two I know about. Could there be other women too? They say men tend to go astray once they have money. You seem like a textbook example. But I must admit, I admire you!" Anna mused, "In just over two months since you arrived in the capital, you’ve made tens of millions, bought two villas, hired a bunch of thugs, opened an antique shop, driven a luxury car worth over a million, got the highly educated professional Miles, and a pretty police flower too."
"Your life is certainly colorful and tasteful."
