My Billionaire Boyfriend: chapter 3
The Preparation
Twinkle's POV:
“No way!” I huff and drop into the armchair annoyingly.
“Why not? It's not like you are asking for a grant from him...a little negotiation for a better future,” Lilly grumbles and stands up from the chair.
“How simple,” Linda says sarcastically and extends the salad to me.
“Then give me another option for the crisis...Twinkle, mark my words, her devil auntie would surely use this to degrade us in the town...can you risk the goodwill of our bakery?” She literally yells in front of us, gaining unwanted attention from other customers in the restaurant.
Linda gives them a sorry look and glares at Lilly, who isn't bothered about the stares and dirty looks we gian.
“Shh...calm down...I know we are risking credibility, but to request Bill to have a deal...it's completely absurd...firstly, we don't know if this Grace Farm is owned by his parents or grandparents...secondly, they have never given out their fruits for commercial purposes, thirdly I don't want to take advantage of his kindness,” I explain consciously.
Lilly blinks for a few seconds, processing what I said.
“Okay...you have a point, but we could make a try. Let's first meet Bill in the evening; after delivering the cake, we can talk about the current crisis and the deal for fruits with him...”
“But—”
“Are you ready to risk the bakery? You three years of hardwork ? ” Lilly cuts me off, giving me a challenging look.
“She is right, Twinkle, we need to get the business with KG Foods...let's just try our luck...I am sure Bill will help us,” Linda, opposite to me, says positively and gives me an assuring smile.
I am completely in a blank state. After knowing Bill has a close relation with Grace Farm, Lilly starts to make assumptions and theories of her own. It ends up with a final theory that Bill is the rich couple's grandson, here to spend their vacation with him at the farmhouse. From the internet, we found that the couple's names are Gracy Kingston and Nicolas Kingston, matching with Bill's surname, Kingston.
“I still don't feel right,” I shake in disappointment and take a mouthful of fries.
“Oh, come on Twinky, nothing to worry. I'll also come with you.”
“That's my greatest fear,” Linda chuckles at my comment.
Lilly scowls at me and snatches the fries and chicken from my plate.
“Hey, that's mine!”
“That's your punishment for being ungrateful,” she stuffs the chicken gracefully while giving me a mocking smile.
Brat!
“Hey girls, sorry for being late,” James pulls out a chair...
