She thought about it and tried to find an excuse.
Finally, she announced, “I am here to apply for a job as a waitress.”
“A waitress?” Avril snorted. “I did not expect Levant to be so busy. He even has to interview a waitress?”
Then, she furrowed her brows and stared at Tiffany rudely. She continued, “Hey, are you secretly trying to seduce him because you have the looks?”
Tiffany immediately denied, “No! You have misunderstood me.”
“Well, Levant will not like someone like you. He likes a woman with long legs, but you don’t have that. Your waist isn’t as slim as he would like it to be either…” Avril commented.
Embarrassed, Tiffany rubbed her fingers awkwardly and stopped Avril mid-sentence. “I know how I look like. I don’t have the intention to seduce him, so you have gotten it all wrong.”
With that, she turned to leave.
Avril watched the woman leave in silence. Turning to look at Sheila, she questioned, “Why did she run away? I am not even done.”
Sheila almost laughed at Avril’s ignorance and sarcastically responded, “You were saying such ‘nice’ things about her that she felt so ‘flattered’ and decided to run off like that.”
Avril got the hint.
My words were too harsh?
Even so, it was only a few words, and she did not have to respond that way!
Besides, I am telling the truth.
“I don’t think she is here to apply for a job. When she replied to my question, she was avoiding my gaze like she was guilty of something,” she stated.
Examining Avril’s curious and suspicious expression, Sheila smiled. “If you are curious, you can ask Levant about her later.”
Knocking on the door of the high-end suite, the three of them walked in.
Levant was surprised by their sudden visit.
“Is there anything wrong? Why did the three of you come together?” He asked as he was obviously nervous.
Instantly, Davin and Sheila turned to Avril. “It’s her.”
Following their gaze, Levant glanced at Avril and asked, “What is it?”
Avril avoided his gaze. She could not imagine how Levant would react if she asked to stay in his house temporarily.
While she was still contemplating what to say, Davin dived straight to the point. “She would like to stay here for a while.”
Avril, who was still thinking, grew anxious. She did not know how Levant would react.
On the other hand, Levant paused for a moment before he casually uttered, “Do whatever you want.”
That’s his reply? Since when was he so nice to me?
Otherwise, is there something wrong with his brain?
Avril was shocked by his response. Earlier, she was afraid that he would reject her and even thought about renting a house somewhere if he refused. Well, that’s good news. I can save some money now.
While she was secretly celebrating, she recalled the woman at the door earlier and wanted to know more about her.
When she described the visitor, Levant was sure that the lady was Tiffany.
Why does Tiffany want to look for me?
Avril was suspicious at how quiet Levant seemed and waved her hand in front of him to snap him out of his thoughts. “Do you know that lady outside? How is she related to you?”
Levant nodded. “Yes, she is my friend.”
A friend?
“Why did she lie and say that she was here to apply for a job then?” Avril narrowed her eyes and seemed adamant to learn the truth.
Frustrated by the questions she had, he declared, “I can allow you to stay here, but you have to stay out of any affairs concerning me and my winery.”
What the heck?
I’m just curious about who she is and why she is here. Why does he have to be so uptight?
Avril unhappily muttered under her breath and speculated that Tiffany and Levant’s relationship was not so simple.
Her curiosity got the better of her, and she could not stay out of it. Hence, she was still determined to find out secretly.
Soon after, Davin and Levant sat down on the milky white, high-end leather sofa while chatting with each other. Meanwhile, Sheila looked around and suddenly thought about Davin’s wine cellar.
