Chapter 79 - 79: The Ability to Boast About Oneself
It must have been Bob Presley who angered Suri Drew in the group chat, prompting her to boast like that.
It must be Bob Presleys fault; men dont need to be reasonable when defending their women, especially not with bastards like Bob Presley.
Suri Drew has never been one to cause trouble; if not provoked, shed usually ignore it and avoid conflicts.
Yigol Novak knows Suri Drew well, but he doesnt completely understand her feelings for him.
Given Suris temperament, shed usually ignore such matters, as she had experienced many rumors during school.
Hearing Yigols words, Suri wondered secretly, was this the tacit understanding between two people in love?bender
What a coincidence, Yigols thoughts actually aligned with hers.
Thinking about this, Suris heartbeat accelerated again, her face uncontrollably reddening as an inexplicable emotion spread within her.
Wifey, why arent you speaking? Dont tell me youre reluctant to let me deal with Bob Presley because you have some sort of bond with him? Yigol asked deliberately.
The next second, Suri lost her temper: Its more like you have some sort of bond with him.
Wifey, what would you do if I indeed had some bond with Bob Presley? Yigol replied.
Suri quickly retorted: You might as well become a couple with him, hurry up, I dont care.
Uh Wifey, how come you seem to know so much and arent against this kind of relationship? Tell me honestly, do you read this type of novels often?
You have to tell me the truth, or else how could I handle you tonight? Yigol said deliberately in a questioning tone.
For a moment, Suri didnt know how to respond to Yigols words. She was alone in her office, and nobody could see her, not even Yigol on the other end of the phone. But she still couldnt help but look around guiltily.
It was only later that she realized Yigol was intentionally provoking her.
What a bastard, whats wrong with her reading novels?
After regaining her composure, Suri calmly replied, You were just trying to stir things up, right? If you want to bring a woman home, I dont mind as long as Im not there and she doesnt enter my room.
Yigol replied, Wifey, you really understand me. I do want to bring a woman home and then, you know what.
Suri was at a loss for words again.
Just as she was struggling with how to reply to Yigol, he spoke again, A woman named Suri Drew.
Suri nearly choked: You Im not talking to you anymore, goodbye.
Yigol replied, Wifey, did you get jealous when you heard me say Id bring another woman home? Didnt I already tell you? I asked what Bob Presleys family situation is like.
Uh!
Suri felt like strangling herself. Yigol had indeed mentioned this earlier, but she was inadvertently led astray by him and forgot about it.
Speaking of which, wasnt it still Yigols fault?
Hmph, its all your fault.
I dont know exactly what Bob Presleys family is like, but Ive heard from others that theyre pretty wealthy, and hes a rich familys son, which is why many girls are willing to throw themselves at him.
Yigol hadnt really planned to get any valuable information, he just wanted to go through the motions.
As for Bob Presley, he looked like a complete sham and was good for nothing. The abilities he boasted about were likely unreliable.
Alright, Ill look into it later. Marrying a beautiful wife takes a lot of effort to protect her properly. Sigh, I worry too much, Yigol sighed.
As expected, his words irritated Suri again.
Who asked you to marry me?
Whos talking about you? Why do you think its about you? Im talking about my wife, Suri Drew, okay? Are you implying that you want to marry me? Yigol replied.
Go away, Suri rolled her eyes, but she couldnt do anything to Yigol.
In fact, she could have hung up the phone long ago. What could Yigol do to her?
However, she was still reluctant to do so; she couldnt win an argument and was also unwilling to end the call.
Women, such walking contradictions.
Today, Yigol had pushed Suris patience to the limit. He worried that if he continued teasing her, she would genuinely explode. He wasnt good at comforting people.
Alright, alright, I was wrong, wifey. I wont talk about you anymore. Dont be mad. Wifey, I just have one last question: if I deal with Bob Presley, do you want me to show mercy?
Suri replied, That has nothing to do with me, I have other things to do, I wont talk to you anymore.
As soon as her words fell, Suri hurriedly hung up Yigols call.
On the other end of the phone, Yigol looked at the disconnected call and happily hummed a tune, Haha, problem solved.
Now, whatever he does to Bob Presley wont arouse Suris suspicion.
He also successfully preserved his wifes self-esteem. Who knows how long it would take for her to mention the issue to him and how much distress she would be going through behind the scenes.
Wifey, you can brag all you want, as long as Im here to clean up the mess.
Its been a long time since Suri last boasted like this. If only she could brag every day, and each time more impressive than the last.
Just thinking about it excited Yigol.
After pondering for a moment, Yigol muttered to himself, The Presley family only has tens of millions of dollars in assets. Their cash on hand must be just several million dollars. How can they be so arrogant?
To deal with them, I dont even need to put in much effort. I just need to find their biggest competitor and have a small collaboration with them. The outcome for the Presley family would be utter ruin.
However, something seems off about the rewards. Suri didnt specifically boast about anything, yet the System granted such generous rewards.
So, in the end, is he just a tool man?
Is he Suris tool man? The System is really good to him, but why does it feel like its siding with Suri all the time?
System, System, come and talk to me. Whats going on here? Am I the host, or is my wife the host? Why do I feel like you actually belong to her? Are you worried she wouldnt be able to get married, so you staged all of this? Yigol asked.
The System didnt respond, as if it hadnt heard him at all.
Yigol sighed helplessly, Well, even if Im my wifes tool man, Im pretty satisfied with this arrangement. After all, whats mine is my wifes, and my wife is mine..
