BXBX NOVEL Chapter 96 - 96: None Of Your Business
After Hector was slapped in the face, he held his face and shouted at Chloe, his eyes bulging, “You… How dare you hit me?”
“So what if 1 hit you?”
With Connor backing her up, Chloe was filled with confidence.
After all, Connor was someone that even the notorious mafia boss of Porthampton, Kyle Hayes, was afraid of. So, she had no scruples in standing up for Connor.
“Who do you think you are? How can you just hit others like that?”
When Mina saw someone hit Hector, she instantly became upset. She took a step forward and shouted agitatedly at Chloe.
“This guy’s mouth is cheap and needs a beating. Besides, what does it have to do with you if I hit him?”
Chloe said in an unusually domineering manner.
“You…”
Mina pointed at Chloe angrily. She was so angry that she couldn’t speak. Then, she turned and asked Hector, “Hector, are you okay?”
“I’m… I’m fine!”
Hector rubbed his cheek and replied in a low voice.
Mina was still present, and Hector had to maintain his gentlemanly image so he didn’t fight with Chloe.
Hector would have shown his true colors and slapped her back if Mina wasn’t there.
After Mina heard Hector’s response, she turned to look at Connor, then, with an emotional expression, she said, “Connor, 1 beg you, don’t meddle in other people’s business anymore, okay? Whether 1 agree to be with Hector is my business. It has nothing to do with you!
“I admit that I did treat you as my best friend before, but I didn’t expect you to be such a person. Perhaps you don’t think Hector is a good person. 1 can understand. But no matter what, Hector is better than a toyboy. So, please don’t interfere in my life in the future. I don’t have a friend like you!”
“Better than a toyboy like me?”
Connor looked at Mina and asked, puzzled.
“Are you still going to quibble with me at a time like this? Wasn’t this woman standing up for you earlier?”
Mina turned and glanced at Chloe, then continued, “Although this woman is a little older, she is quite good-looking. You are lucky to have found a sugar mommy like her!”
The crowd looked at Connor and Chloe incredulously.
If it weren’t for what Mina said, they wouldn’t have thought that Connor was Chloe’s sugar baby.
“I can’t believe that even a loser of a delivery boy is willing to be a sugar baby. The world is full of wonders!”
“Yeah, is this beautiful woman blind? She has such a trashy sugar baby!”
“And this woman is quite pretty. What kind of dumb luck does this man have?”
The crowd started to discuss among themselves as they watched Chloe and Connor.
Meanwhile, Connor looked at Mina helplessly.
He did not expect Mina to think that he was Chloe’s sugar baby.
“Mina, you’ve misunderstood me. We don’t have that kind of relationship!”
Connor explained, then took a step forward and continued, “Mina, I think you…”
“Connor, you don’t have to explain to me. 1 don’t want to hear about your life, and 1 don’t want to care about it. 1 hope you won’t interfere in my life in the future!”
Mina’s face was stern as she interrupted Connor’s sentence. Then, she turned and said to Hector, “Hector, let’s go!”
“Mina, have you agreed to be my girlfriend?”
Hector asked Mina.

Mina frowned and hesitated, then said in a low voice, “Yes, I’m willing to be your girlfriend!”
After hearing Mina’s agreement, Connor felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and he was stunned.
He felt as if thousands of arrows had pierced through his heart, and his heart ached.
He knew that if he hadn’t come over to stop Mina, Mina would have likely rejected Hector.
But at this moment, Mina had agreed to be Hector’s boyfriend out of anger.
When Hector heard Mina’s answer, he immediately looked happy. He turned and looked provocatively at Connor, then led Mina to the street.
Not long after, Hector stopped a taxi, got into the car with Mina, and left.
Seeing this, Connor felt helpless.
It wouldn’t be long before Hector slept with Mina, if he guessed correctly.
Even if Connor went to stop Mina, Mina would still think that he was stirring up trouble for no reason.
As Mina and Connor were getting deeper and deeper, Mina was dead set on the idea that CEEM was Hector, and the person helping her was also Hector.
These were not things that Connor could explain clearly right now.
Moreover, Mina had no intention of listening to Connor’s explanation.
Therefore, Connor could only place his hopes on Kyle. As long as Kyle could find Hector and help him get his account back, the rest would be simple.
“Mr. McDonald, are you alright?”
Seeing Connor standing there in a daze, Chloe asked with concern, “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine…”
Connor replied indifferently and didn’t say anything else.
After all, the matter between him and Mina couldn’t be clarified with just a few words.
“Alright, let’s go!”
Connor noticed that many people were still looking at him as if he was an idiot, so he turned and told Chloe that he wanted to leave.
“Okay!”
Chloe agreed. Then, she held Connor’s hand and walked toward the parking lot.
***
Five minutes later, Chloe drove with Connor to a restaurant.
“Mr. McDonald, this is the only three-star Michelin restaurant in Porthampton. Usually, only registered members can come here to eat. Even if you are a member, it’s hard to get a seat here. 1 have pulled many favors to get a reservation here!”
After getting off the car, Chloe explained to Connor with a smile.
When Connor heard this, he looked up at the restaurant’s name and found that it was New Century Restaurant, where he had met with Freya Phillips before.
“I’ve been to this restaurant before!”
Connor told Chloe.
When Chloe heard that, she was stunned. Then, she said with a smile, “Mr. McDonald, shouldn’t a rich person like you often come to this restaurant to spend money?”
“That’s true!”
Connor replied indifferently and didn’t say anything else. He followed Chloe into the restaurant.
After entering the restaurant, Connor found many people were waiting in line.
Among the people in line, Connor saw two familiar figures. They were Mina and Hector.
Obviously, after Hector had successfully confessed to Mina, to continue playing the role of a rich kid, he especially borrowed a membership card from a friend and also some money. Then, he made a reservation at New Century Restaurant.
The purpose was to make Mina believe in him through and through. After this meal, he was going to take Mina to a hotel..
