The Billionaire’s Temporary Bride

Allen couldn’t bear to see Juliet alone.

Allen’s words surprised Juliet. She fixed at his handsome face.

He smiled gently. He was so mild and gentle.

After a long time, Juliet blinked and chuckled, “Allen, if you say that, I will misunderstand that you like me.”

“Isn’t this a beautiful misunderstanding?” Allen smiled meaningfully. A trace of affection showed in his eyes.

Juliet bit her lips, “It is indeed beautiful. However, I have fallen in love with someone else.”

A hazy light flashed past Allen’s eyes, and he still smiled warmly, “It’s fine. That is enough as long as I love you.”

Juliet raised her eyebrows and leaned back. Her inquiring gaze landed on his face. “Allen, are you joking with me or are you serious?”

“What do you think?” Allen did not answer.

Juliet replied without hesitation, “Fake. After all, I am Payton’s girlfriend. How can you like your friend’s girlfriend?”

Allen looked down and smiled, “It’s just a little late.”

His voice was very low, and Juliet did not hear it clearly. “What did you say? I did not hear it.”

Allen looked up and smiled slightly, “Nothing.”

Since it was nothing, Juliet did not pursue it any further, and she was not interested.

She stood up and went to the wine cabinet to get another bottle of wine. Then she turned back.

She stood in front of Allen, raised the wine in her hand and said, “Do you want to drink with me?”

Allen raised his eyebrows and said, “My pleasure.”

…

Payton listened with interest to Charlotte’s funny stories about foreign countries and occasionally laughed heartily.

He inadvertently turned his head and saw Juliet and Allen sitting in a corner.

The smile on his lips faded slowly, and he looked at them quietly.

He didn’t know what Allen had said, but Juliet’s smile was very brilliant, and her delicate face became even brighter and more moving.

He felt strange. He pursed his thin lips and stared at her smiling face.

Seeing her smiling so happily in front of Allen, he felt somewhat unhappy.

River looked up and saw that Payton was looking at something with his head tilted. River didn’t know what Payton was looking at, so River followed Payton’s line of sight.

When River saw Allen and Juliet, a trace of surprise flashed through his eyes. How could they be together?

River glanced at Payton who was in a bad mood. River said with a mocking smile, “Unexpectedly, Allen and your girlfriend hit it off.”

Hearing this, Payton turned around and looked at him. Then Payton stood up under River’s gaze and walked towards them who hit it off.

“Is Payton jealous?” River raised her eyebrows. His eyes sparkled with interest.

…

Allen was very funny and humorous. He could easily amuse her.

As she drank wine, she listened to Allen’s words. Wasn’t it a pleasant enjoyment?

At the very least, she didn’t have to think about that annoying Payton.

Juliet took a sip of the wine and looked up. Her face clouded over.

Allen had always looked at her, so he noticed that her expression was changed.

Seeing her staring straight behind him, he frowned. He turned around and saw Payton walking towards them.

Allen’s eyes were filled with disappointment as he smiled and said, “Your boyfriend is coming. I will get out of your hair.”

As he spoke, he got up and was about to leave.

At this moment…

“Wait a moment.” Juliet grabbed his hand.

Allen tilted his head and glanced at her hand. He narrowed his eyes as he looked at her face. “What’s wrong?”

“Do me a favor,” she said softly. Her eyes sparkled with pleading.

Allen raised his eyebrows and sat back down.

Juliet knew that he was willing to help her, so she whispered to thank him.

Allen smiled. His gaze was so deep that no one could see his thoughts at this moment.

As Payton approached, he saw Juliet grabbing Allen’s hand. He became angry. “Juliet, have you forgotten who you are?”

His tone was very unpleasant.

As soon as Payton said those words, Allen felt his arm being gripped tighter.

Allen turned his head to look at Juliet.

If Juliet didn’t know that Payton didn’t like her, she would really think that he was jealous.

She chuckled and looked up at Payton mockingly, “How can I forget who I am? I think you forgot who you are, right?”

Payton knew that it was his fault that he had ignored her for playing with others, but she shouldn’t have chatted so happily with Allen and completely ignored her boyfriend.

At this moment, Payton completely forgot that he was just her fake boyfriend. He had no right to interfere with whom she talked to.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Noticing that Payton was silent, Juliet was a little irritated. “If you only want to ask me this, then hurry back and play with them. Don’t disturb me and Allen.”

Hearing this, Allen raised his eyebrows, and a trace of interest appeared in his eyes.

Payton was annoyed. “Juliet, what do you mean? I’m your boyfriend. You are driving me away to be with another man.”

Juliet was excited. She couldn’t help but smile. She asked tentatively, “Are you jealous?”

“Jealous…” Payton was surprised. Then he realized what he had just said.

He saw Allen looking at him with interest and saw the expectation in Juliet’s eyes. He looked away awkwardly and raised his hand to rub his nose. “You think too much. Why would I be jealous?”

Allen glanced at Juliet’s dim eyes. He pursed his lower lip and asked with a smile, “Payton, isn’t Juliet your girlfriend? Isn’t it normal for you to be jealous?”

“She’s not…,” Payton subconsciously tried to deny it. Fortunately, he was still sober, and he changed his words in time. He changed his words ponderously, “She’s not a two-timer, so I’m at ease about the matter.”

“A two-timer?” Juliet sneered and looked at him coldly. “Right now, I feel that Allen is better than you.”

Payton was unhappy. “Juliet, are you trying to make things difficult for me?”

Juliet forced a smile. “Yes. I’m making things difficult for you. If you feel unhappy, then go to find your Charlotte. She won’t make things difficult for you.”

“What does this have to do with Charlotte? Why are you talking about her?” Payton’s voice became lower slowly. He frowned. Suddenly, he understood something.

“Do you misunderstand me and Charlotte?” Payton asked.

Juliet was in a panic. She felt guilty about being seen through. She looked away and replied coldly, “You think too much.”

Was it so? Payton frowned. She dared not to look at him. It was obvious that she was guilty.

He thought for a moment and then said to Allen, “Allen, can you…?”

Before Payton could finish speaking, Allen stood up sensitively and patted his shoulder. “I understand what you mean.”

Then Allen turned to Juliet and said, “Juliet, see you next time.”

With that, Allen smiled at Payton and walked away.
