Chapter 443 Mammonist (2/2)
”Mr. Johnny seems to have a finger in every pie. Are you deliberately following me around?”
Carla asked, feeling quite suspicious of him. If he wasn't tailing her in some way, then why did it feel so weird to be bumping into him almost every single time? Carla was thinking that it couldn't be purely by chance.
With a quick shrug of his shoulders, Johnny tried to explain himself, ”You're taking it the wrong way. I just happened to be passing by when I saw you guys having a cup of coffee, so I decided to stop by.”
”Oh? Is that so?” Carla scoffed at him. It seemed rather apparent that he came here on purpose no matter what kind of excuse he came up with.
Gazing at her with lustful eyes, Johnny found it hard to look away. He felt like the married Carla looked even more beautiful than before.
”Carla, who mi

”Wow, this man isn't actually half bad. Good looks, well-to-do, and coming from a good background as well,” Hasen's wife agreed with her husband as she went through all of the available details regarding Johnny. She actually appeared as though she was assessing her own son-in-law.
Carla quietly rested the palm of her hand over her face.
Truth be told, she could hardly bear the family sitting in front of her any longer. It wasn't like anything had actually happened already and they hadn't even met Johnny themselves, but yet there they were, already judging his character.
”Carla, lend your cousin a helping hand in getting to know Mr. Johnny. You can't let any other guy take advantage of our Lynn,” Hasen's wife requested, beaming Carla a smile to convince her to do the favor for her daughter, right after handing the phone over back to Lynn.
Placing her hands down at the table, Carla admitted, ”Aunt, I've already told Lynn that Johnny is a playboy, and I'm afraid that she's only gonna get herself in a world of disappointment.”
”Carla, your aunt knows that there's no such thing as a perfect guy, and even the wealthy shouldn't be an exception. Just take you and Terence for example, the two of you have made it through a lot of hardships before you finally got married. So, you shouldn't worry too much about those trivial things. Just help Lynn get along with him for the time being. And if ever they don't end up being a good match, then Lynn can simply see other men,” Hasen's wife retorted, sounding rather displeased.
Hopelessly raising her eyebrows, Carla was left at such a loss for words.
There wasn't really any similarity between Terence and Johnny. The two of them were like oil and water.
They knew fully well what their daughter was getting herself into, and yet they still chose to indulge her in her whims. For that reason, Carla began to think that there was no way she could find such materialistic parents as these two.
