Chapter 994
Trisha said, “Lighten up, Nicolas. You said I lack feminine charm, I didn’t get mad, did I? You seem selfish on the surface, but you’re actually quite loyal. Anyway, I’m not your girlfriend, how you treat others is none of my business. As a friend, you’re pretty great.”
Nicolas froze, the phrase “Tm not your girlfriend” sounded rather harsh. He suddenly felt a lump in his throat.
He gritted his teeth and said, “You want to date me? I think you’re not good enough!”
Tnsha didn’t catch his anger, she just thought he was being his usual self, so she happily said. “Of course, you, Nicolas, have a lot of demands. I’m so short, how could I match up to you?”
Hearing her self–deprecating words to comfort him, Nicolas didn’t feel better, but rather worse
He thought to himself Yeah, why did I fall for someone as short as you, who doesn’t even consider me boy friend material.
“Alright, don’t be mad. Once I get the copyright fee, I’ll treat you to a nice meal. I’ll take you to that new restaurant downtown, and you can order whatever you want! Let’s show the owner I’m capable!
Nicolas suppressed his anger and asked, “How did the restaurant owner offend you?”
“He didn’t really offend me, it’s just that whenever I walk past their restaurant, the way he looks at me…”
Trisha said, and started to imitate the look
“He looks down on me”
Hearing this, Nicolas forgot his previous unhappiness and started to laugh, “You think he looks down on you, yet you still want to spend money in his restaurant, are you trying to increase his income? Did he save your life in a past life?”
Trisha was taken aback, “L. I just want to show him that I can afford it.”
Nicolas suddenly leaned in, his wet hair dripping water, and slowly said, “That’s not making him look bad, that’s giving him money. He might think you’re a fool”
Hearing this, Trisha was a bit upset, “Then do you have a better idea?”
Nicolas’s eyes turned cold, “If it were me, I’d build a cemetery right next to their restaurant. Before long, his business would go down the drain.
His restaurant lease is for five years, costing over thirty thousand dollars a year, with decoration costs in the tens of thousands, plus other expenses, he’d be bankrupt Even if he wanted to transfer the restaurant, with a cemetery next door, he wouldn’t be able to.”
Trisha said, “You’re so evil”
She just wanted to make him uncomfortable, but Nicolas wanted to bankrupt him.
“But building a cemetery, the landlord might not agree. If they rent to you, how will they rent the other houses?”
Nicolas said, “Rent them all. As long as the restaurant owner is forced to vacate, I think the landlord would be quite happy.”
The revenge tactics of rich people
Trisha thought for a while and said, “If I ever offend you one day, you wouldn’t leave me with no way out, would you?”
Nicolas gave a slight smile and gently pinched her face, “That’s yet to be seen. So you better show me some respect in the future.”
Trisha quickly changed her tune, “How dare I disrespect you? You’ve been bathing for so long, tired? Want me to give your back a massage?”
Nicolas gave her a glance and said, “Alright then.”
Then he shrugged off his bathrobe, showing off his strong muscles, turned his back to her and said, “Put some muscle into it, my back’s been feeling a bit stiff lately”
