Invincible Heir
Chapter 44 Slapped Again
Baron froze, initially thinking he’d done something wrong again, but soon, he gleaned everything from her eyes.
He beamed. “Because I love you!”
At that, Tracy finally lost her composure and teared up, but she kept her eyes trained on Baron. “You know full well I don’t think of you romantically. Is it worth lavishing that much of your attention on me?”
Baron produced a wad of tissues and dabbed at her cheeks, a gentle smile on his face. “You don’t need to be burdened by this at all. Just think of me as an admirer.”
“Admirer?” Tracy said, surprised at his turn of phrase.
Baron nodded. “Just treat me as a man who likes you and is in the middle of courting you. If, one day, you find that you truly can’t accept me, you’re free to refuse.”
Tracy fell silent, and Baron soothed, “Don’t worry about it so much. Go on, eat!”
After breakfast, Baron began driving Tracy to the office.
“Baron, if you don’t have anything else to do, can you take me to the Perry company first?” Tracy spoke up suddenly.
Baron didn’t ask questions. He only replied, “Sure!”
Tracy’s mood remained sunken all the way to the Perry Clan. It took Baron reminding her before she snapped out of it.
The moment the pair stepped out of the car, they saw a familiar figure.
“You’re still alive? How unexpected,” Phillip growled as he saw Baron approaching.
Baron, in the meantime, wore a mocking expression. “Run out of men to play with after just these few days?”
Phillip flew into a rage. “You really think no one can touch you, Baron?”
“You’re certainly not on the list of people who can touch me,” Baron sneered.
“Don’t think that Wallace is holding off moving on you because he’s scared. He just doesn’t have time to tidy up trash like you. When the time comes, you’ll be bleeding out in the streets!” Phillip said through clenched teeth.
Ever since the video of him and Wallace leaked, the denizens of the internet had made living memes out of his reactions on tape – the sort that was enjoying it, too – and given him the nickname “Phips”.
Paparazzi had begun swarming him at home and in front of the office.
Even the directors of porn movies were reaching out to him for a debut as the main star.
He’d just passed a high school, where someone yelled “It’s Phips!” out of nowhere.
Cue the masses of degenerate shut-ins surrounding him snapping picture after picture.
All this was thanks to the bastard in front of him. Phillip wanted nothing more than to rush Baron that instant and kill him right there, but he took a look at his arm still wrapped in its cast and swallowed the urge.
“No need to tangle with this horrid excuse of a human being. Let’s go find Granddad,” Tracy said to Baron.
“Stop right there!”
