66 My new model Part4

Using every bit of self-control Luther had, he composed himself and spoke.

"Yup. Let's say… just for the fun of it… that it is indeed something like that. So?"

Su Lin smirked and continued, "Listen, not to offend you or anything, but I don't have any sort of romantic interest in you."

Ouch. Yup! That hurts! Luther pulled up the corner off his lips in amusement.

"But don't worry. I appreciate your sincere gratitude and have a counter proposal for you." Su Lin shamelessly continued.

"...."

"I am in need of your services for a different reason. Can you give me 6 months of your time ?"

"Pffffttt... What now?" Luther choked on his water and spat everything out.

"I am dead serious. I need this help and you can consider it as repayment."

"Think about it. It will be like a sort of contract."

Luther was dumbfounded. 

He honestly didn't know how to react. This was too crazy and hilarious. 

He had just come here to bid her goodbye... though it was his nth time trying, but what now?

But the funny part was…

Could he even bring himself to refuse her? He didn't know!!! This was completely unexpected.

He had never expected her to willingly invite him into her life.

Several minutes of silence passed by... 

Luther still couldn't bring himself to say yes or no to this woman in front of him.

Her eyes glued onto him, was definitely not helping the cause, making him more nervous and uncomfortable.

Looking at him hesitating, Su Lin was worried. 

She had a plan, but he was crucial to the plan. She didn't want to lose him.

Maybe she broke his heart too much? That's why he is feeling sad and unable to answer?

Clearing her throat a bit, Su Lin decided to go all-in on her bet. 

She sheepishly looked down and murmured quietly.

"Umm.. you know if you are working with me for 6 months, who knows something might even happen between us."

She was fine with this statement. 

It might be false but it was technically… technically not a lie! 

Later on, maybe she could hand him some sort of treasure or talisman to compensate. It was really not a bad deal!

With a gaze full of expectations, she continued staring at him fervently…

Luther, on the other hand, was genuinely struggling. He couldn't even bring himself to meet her eyes. He was the boss for god's sake!

He can't possibly take a 6 month vacation??! So why was he thinking about it so much? He should have refused her by now.

Maybe if he used a phone more often somehow he could manage?

No no! Come on. You can say no. Just tell her no.

Think about how others will react!! They are already packing their bags!!!

Luther was going through a crazy internal struggle.

He tried his best to reason with himself. 

But sometimes, when your brain says one thing and your heart says another thing!

Every single cell in his body wanted him to stay behind and be with her. Today, he even came to see her violent murderous side.

Maybe they were not that different after all. 

No innocent civilian could ever remain that calm after killing someone in broad daylight.

He looked at her and wanted to tell her that he was sorry and he couldn't possibly help her with this...

But… In the end... all he could bring himself to say was…

"As you wish my dear."

Su Lin looked at the devilishly handsome man and grinned. This was good. This was too good!

With him now, they can turn everything upside down! What bitch ass modeling agency and what bitch ass models!

Look his face!!! Who can even compare to these gorgeous features?! 

If this face can't make people stop, turn back and come into their shop, then no one else can!!!

Luther was sweating. 

They still hadn't discussed the exact terms of their contract or rather what help she needed.

And for some reason, he had a bad feeling!

He even got goosebumps all over his body. 

"You… Please control your emotions."

"Everything is written so clearly on your face. Can you please not look at me like a piece of meat??" He exasperatedly exclaimed.

Already regretting his decision, he silently got up. "Ok. I need to go and settle some things. I will see you later tonight. And..."

"And?" Su Lin knitted her brows together and asked.

"Don't miss me too much. Ha Ha."

Rolling her eyes, Su Lin shut the door once the devil left her house. 

A lot had happened today, but in the end, somehow things worked out! Phew.

While Su Lin was grinning satisfactorily, Luther gloomily approached the hotel, his men were staying in. 

How on earth was he going to explain to them?!!
