Fortunately, Barclay didn’t say anything. He just picked up the high heeled glass and finished the red wine inside.
Barclay did it differently than others.
As for what it was exactly, Moira could not think of an accurate description. If she had to describe it, it would probably be that Barclay had a special aura around him that normal people didn’t have.
To put it bluntly, he excluded the elegance of a noble.
“Is something wrong?” Barclay had poured another half a glass of wine. He swirled it slightly and looked up at her.
Moira quickly placed the phone in front of Barclay, “I just received 20 million dollars.”
She had almost forgotten about the important matter.
Barclay paused for a moment. “Is there a problem?”
Moira asked, “Did you transfer it to me?”
Barclay asked, “Didn’t you want to be reimbursed?”
Moira felt that she had to explain. “Mr. Covington, you know, it’s just that friends, especially close friends, always like to say something a little out of line.”

Moira felt that something was wrong, but she could not really point it out.
Pursing her lips, she decided to return the money.
Even if it was acting, this money was not something she should accept.
She said, “I’ve already shown the message to my friend. I’ll secretly transfer the money back to you. I’ll be fine if I don’t tell her.”
Barclay glanced at her. “Do you feel guilty to take my money?”
Moira was embarrassed. “A little bit.”
If she didn’t earn the money through honest work, she wouldn’t dare to spend it.

Barclay did not say anything. The small room fell silent.
Moira looked at the phone on his desk. She wanted to take it back but felt a little embarrassed. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Moira felt her ears turn red. She pursed her lips and stubbornly said, “I’d better transfer the money back to you. There are too many scammers going around nowadays. What if I’m accidentally scammed? Mr. Covington, what’s your bank account number?”
After saying that, she held her phone and looked at him eagerly.
She seemed to be especially good at this move. Every time she wheedled or begged someone, she would blink her innocent and big eyes at them.

Barclay admitted that he was a hard–hearted person, but when she looked at him like that, he was defeated in

To be honest, she really did not have the guts to keep this 20 million dollars.
She was really afraid that she
