Honey, You're a Billionaire by Chandler Solar

Chapter 472 Can We Have a Drink That night, Clover drank alone at a bar in Regalia.

He had just ended a call, where he found out Yosef was actively using his connections for a favor. Was he still intent on bailing Jack out? When he heard the news, he stated that Jack could not be released. The more they resisted, the more Jack would suffer.

Perhaps he was so focused on his thoughts that he becunaware of the constant admiring gazes thrown in his direction. His exquisite facial features and captivating vibe made him the most appealing man in the bar. Initially, the women only admired him from afar. Then, a woman broke the ice and made her move. "Can I have a drink with you, sir?" Clover lifted his head, revealing his handsand heart-throbbing smile. However, his irresistible lips uttered the coldest words. "No, thanks." The woman felt her heart shatter. Even though he had rejected her, she maintained her composure to leave a good impression on him. As such, she didn't insist and left with a gracious smile.

A woman's failure meant another chance of success for others. Gradually, those who thought they had a shot proceeded to hit on him.

However, without exception, all of them returned to their seats in disappointment. Despite the rejections, they stared longingly at the handsman. Amid their admiration, they began to suspect a theory.

All the girls who went up to him were undoubtedly bombshells, yet a man like him chose to drink alone instead of spending twith one of them.

Perhaps... he liked men and not women? At least, that was their theory.

As they made the assumption, they saw a man approaching him. A guy who was almost as alluring as he was had entered the picture! "Can we have a drink?" Clover was sipping his wine when he heard a sultry voice. "Is it another admirer? No..." he contemplated with furrowed brows. "That's a man's voice!" he thought.

He was straighter than a pole. He thought he had cto an ordinary bar where he could enjoy himself amid the boisterous scene. Yet, after multiple attempts from several women, a man was now hitting on him! Clover was slightly displeased. "I'm not into that." Jonathan was speechless. He was here to show goodwill and had purposely softened his tone to keep things polite. What was Clover mad about? "Mr. Xanth..." "Like I said, I'm not into that!" Clover had lost his mood to enjoy the night. He regretted coming to this bar. Had he known he'd be approached by men here, he would've dragged Emily along when she rejected him. Clover didn't want to stay another second. He disregarded the remaining wine in his glass and rose to his feet. Yet, when he turned and saw the person before him, he froze instantly. "Jonathan?" He was visibly startled.

Jonathan flashed him a rare smile. "You seem bothered, Mr. Xanth." His bad mood ought to affect the outcof his business discussion with him later.

Recalling the reason for his displeasure earlier, Clover felt awkward and quickly drank from the glass before him to hide his emotions.

As if it was water, he grabbed the wine bottle on the table and moved to pour Jonathan a glass. Seeing that there was no empty glass, he called out to the staff. "Another wine glass, please." His series of actions threw the admiring women in the bar into chaos. So, that was the truth! Not only was he into men, but he was also interested in this handsdude! Otherwise, why the series of actions? He was obviously nervous! Was it... love at first sight? The two men surprisingly made a good-looking couple. The women instantly diminished their t from earlier andet started rooting for them. However, Jonathan and Clover were unaware of that.

When the servant returned with an empty glass, Clover poured Jonathan swine but saw him standing. He hurriedly said, "Have a seat. We're old friends, so let's save the courtesy." From what Jonathan remembered, Clover had always been arrogant. Why was he suddenly so enthusiastic? It took a while for Jonathan to get used to his energy. Since Jonathan was the one who had sought Clover out, he naturally didn't refuse and sat down. After taking a sip, he stated his purpose. "Mr. Xanth, I'd like to know which aspect of our proposed collaboration is not to your liking." Clover was surprised to know Jonathan was here to talk business. He instantly stopped feeling the awkwardness from earlier.

"You're mistaken, Mr. Finch. There's nothing I dislike." He repeatedly downed his glass.

At that moment, he was no longer the embarrassed man from before. Instead, every gesture and movement of his exuded an air of arrogance before Jonathan.

Jonathan furrowed his brows. "Then, please enlightenas to why you've been dragging out signing the papers despite our several attempts." He understood that the problem lay with Clover. As for the reason that held him back...

Clover maintained his smile. "I don't like Finch Group." Disliking Finch Group? That was obviously not the reason. If it were, they wouldn't have discussed the collaboration in the first place.

Jonathan locked eyes with Clover and spoke straightforwardly. "Is it because of Rose?"

Startled, Clover didn't expect him to know that. "If you already knew why and want to seal the deal quickly, you should know what to do, right?" Jonathan had long anticipated this point of their conversation. Suddenly, he lowered his gaze and chuckled.

"Rose is my wife, so I can't possibly satisfy your wishes. However, given the Xanth family's extensive business network abroad, I believe your family would never forgo such opportunities for a girl. "If we collaborate, it means Finch Group gets to hit the overseas market while your family can establish a foothold domestically It's a win-win situation. I suppose the Xanth family won't oppose that.

"If you intend to challenge me, why don't you try a different approach? As long as you keep Rose out of the picture, I'm okay with anything." His last few words suggested a significant offer! Clover looked at Jonathan, and his gaze slowly shifted. Fiddling with his wine glass, Clover smiled half-heartedly.

"Is Rose truly that important to you? Is she worth more than your dignity and life?"

"My life?" Jonathan seemed indifferent. "believe my life has no value to you. As for my dignity..." He met Clover's eyes. "What do you wantto do?" He implied that Rose mattered more than his dignity! As such, Clover responded, "What do I want? Well, I need tto think about that!" Warning: Please note the Scholar's TWe've censored this image for being too amazing.
