Chapter 908: Chapter 887 Either the Wife or a Stranger!

Fiancée?

Haha, I don’t even have a girlfriend, where would a fiancée come from?

Misia stared deeply at the man next to her, who was focused on playing with his phone, and felt a sense of conquest stirring within her. How could there exist a man in this world who so thoroughly ignored her charm? The fact that such an arrogant man didn’t consider her, a top-tier beauty, worth his attention didn’t put her off; on the contrary, it made him even more attractive!

"So, where’s your fiancée? Why didn’t she come today?"

Misia admitted to herself that her question was blatantly suggestive, but she asked anyway because it was a rare opportunity to strike up a conversation.

"She’s studying back in our country!"

Roy Thompson didn’t even glance at her as he responded, his gaze remaining fixed on the reporter’s casually captured image on his phone’s screen. A slight smile curved his lips as if considering the frenzy that would ensue if the reporters knew that the beautiful girl beside the engagement ceremony’s female lead was the Gordon family’s heiress.

"Do you love her?"

"Of course!"

"Answering too quickly just proves you’re not that sure of yourself!"

The woman didn’t seem to intend to let him go just because he had a fiancée, continuing to speak with a hint of provocation in her tone, "Mr. Thompson, perhaps you’re not so confident after all?"

One second, two seconds...

Despite such an obvious challenge, the man seemed to utterly dismiss her, ignoring her completely as Roy Thompson stopped responding.

"Roy, such a beautiful woman, and you won’t even look up at her. What are we, who’ve been drooling over her for half the day, supposed to do?" Roy’s demeanor was truly frustrating for the other men ogling Misia. "Miss Misia, although Roy is handsome, he’s not as good-natured as I am. Why not consider me?"

After speaking, the man proudly puffed out his chest, boasting, "Look at this, I have an eight pack, a real hunk!"

Misia: "..."

Is a man with an eight pack abs automatically a hunk?

"Abs are just for show, whether a man’s truly strong or not, you’ll only know in bed!" Misia shrugged indifferently, "These days, men prove their strength not through words but through... their bodies!"

Man: "..."

Indeed, the undefeated Goddess... speaking such words, even men couldn’t bear it!

"How about it, Miss Misia, give me a chance to prove my manliness, otherwise how would you know if my toughness is real, if my eight pack abs are just for show?" After all, having spent time with Roy in the Special Forces, his physique was outstanding; in that all-men environment, coarseness was the norm. When a woman who spoke even more boldly than them came along, the guys naturally didn’t see her as a woman anymore!

"You..." Misia’s expression was teasing, and there was a flash of majestic disdain in her eyes as she looked at him, "Let’s forget about it. Even if you are robust, I’m not interested!"

After speaking, she cast a meaningful glance at Roy, who was still preoccupied with his phone, and said playfully, "Sorry, but I’m all about the looks. My expectations for a man’s face are higher than my demands for what’s below the waist!"

Man: "..."

Everybody: "..."

"The epitome of women, a fighter among them, we worship you!" One of them burst out loudly, "Roy Thompson, only you can conquer such a woman. We don’t have the goods for that; even if we like her, it can only be in our heads. At most, we’d get an inflatable doll in her likeness. The real deal is too much for us to handle!"

"Wow, Roy, go get her and show some spirit on behalf of us brothers!"

"Can’t you see, Miss Misia is standing right before Roy? It’s obvious she is here for him. The goddess has her eyes on Roy, so you guys better not crowd around!"

With each person adding their own comment, the entire private room began to boil with excitement. Everyone clearly looked forward to seeing some action.

This girl seemed to be a fiery one, while Roy Thompson maintained an indifferent and stern demeanor. He was almost immune to the usual jokes about men and women they threw at him. They were actually quite eager to see this bold woman take him down.

The whole private room was nearly erupting with cheers and shouts, and it wasn’t until Roy finally put away his phone and lazily lifted his head to take a brief glance around the room that the clamor started to die down from exhaustion.

The man then casually said, "Are you trying to force me to go home and kneel on the keyboard?"

Kneel on the keyboard?

Before people could laugh at his statement, his words, like a bombshell, softly drifted through the silent private room, now only filled with the sound of breathing, "My wife is quite fierce, you know. When she gets angry, you all would have to walk on eggshells!"

As soon as Roy finished speaking, everyone in the room was so shocked their eyes went wide; they simply couldn’t believe their ears!

Explosive news! Explosive news!

It was more than explosive; it was mind-blowing. The Young Master of the Thompson family was under tight rein by his wife!

How could they believe such a thing, wait a second...

That doesn’t seem to be the main point. The main point is...

"Roy Thompson, you don’t even have a girlfriend, where did you get a wife from?"

Reacting first with a scream was Misia’s brother, "Stop spouting nonsense. If you don’t like my sister, you don’t have to make up such a lie. Though my sister is stunning, it’s normal for someone to not like her. There’s no need for such a lame excuse!"

"Maybe Young Master Thompson really does have a wife arranged by his parents, the typical wealthy family arrangement. Who knows, maybe Young Master Thompson had a wife picked out for him by his dad from the moment he was born. Roy, am I right?"

The people in the private room went back and forth with their comments without the person in question speaking, and they had already exhausted all sorts of speculations.

"Hmm, we are indeed childhood betrothed, but that’s not exactly right!" Roy suddenly found himself in a surprisingly good mood with a smile reaching deep into his heart after being teased by everyone. It was rare for him to respond to personal questions. "We were pledged at five, engaged at eighteen, so you all are half right!"

Half right?

Damn!

Damn!

Was this actually true? Did he really have a wife?

"You have a wife, but when I asked if you had a girlfriend, why did you say no?"

Misia’s brother felt as if he had been slapped in the face. Getting slapped by a good brother wasn’t a big deal, but deception naturally sours one’s mood.

"A wife is not a girlfriend. I indeed don’t have a girlfriend!" Roy shrugged nonchalantly, "Moreover, I don’t think I need a ’girlfriend’ creature. Give me a wife, or just a stranger!"
