CHAPTER 109: HOW TO MAKE A WOMAN FALL FOR YOU

Bruce was silent the whole night. When Hilla woke up early, she found that the person beside her had already been gone.

The creases on the bed indicated that he had returned last night.

Hilla turned back and saw the credit card on the table. She was stunned for a long time before she recovered.

If she remembered it right, this was his supplementary card.

Why would Bruce give her this?

Hilla suddenly remembered that Bruce had asked her to go shopping in the middle of the night. She frowned and wondered what was wrong with him? Why would he want her to spend money?

When Hilla was videoing Halle, Halle was basking in the sun in the yard. It had just entered spring, and the sun seemed to be much gentler than before.

The two furry dogs followed behind her. Hilla pouted and said in a low voice, "Halle, Bruce doesn’t seem normal."

Halle had long felt that something was wrong with him when he, a dignified CEO of a multinational corporation, came to the countryside to clean up the courtyard for her.

"Did he bully you?" As her big sister, Halle was more concerned about whether Hilla was bullied, and she was more worried about Hilla’s mood.

Hilla pursed her lips, and after a long while, she frowned and said, "Bruce gave me his supplementary card. He asked me to go shopping in the middle of the night."

She was so scared that she didn’t dare to sleep for several hours. She was afraid that Bruce would be possessed by something evil at night.

Although she was not superstitious, Bruce was indeed too abnormal last night.

No one would ask her to the mall in the middle of the night unless he was insane.

Halle was a little surprised when she heard this, and then she said, "Did you quarrel?"

Hilla shook her head, "I never quarrel with others."

Halle resisted the urge to laugh and asked, "Did he make you angry?"

Hilla furrowed even harder and then shook her head slowly.

Halle said, "Where did you go yesterday and what did you do?"

"We went to a party and quickly came back. That was all."

"You came back together?"

Hilla shook her head and said in a low voice, "I left first."

So they did bicker last night. "If a man suddenly treats you abnormally well, it’s not because he is guilty, but because he did something wrong to you. Moreover, he was discovered by his wife, so he must play nice to her," thought Halle.

"You didn’t tell him the reason why you came back first. Was he in contact with any other women at the party? Was it his ex-girlfriend who you mentioned before?"

Otherwise, with her sister’s temper, if an ordinary woman wanted to seduce Bruce, Hilla would go up and beat her up but yesterday Hilla just went home so quietly.

That meant that that woman had some special connection with Bruce and that was why Hilla had a sense of crisis and was very concerned. But she didn’t want to talk about it, so she could only avoid it, deceiving herself.

Hilla widened her eyes in disbelief, and then grasped the corner of the quilt guiltily. Hilla didn’t dare to look at Halle on the screen, only saying, "I’m not that angry."

"You ignored him and ran back on your own. How can you say that you are not angry? I’m afraid that Mr. Anderson is preoccupied now. Otherwise, why would he give you the card? He’s trying to make you happy. Do you know that?"

"He just said that buying things can make people happy."

Hilla now understood that it wasn’t because Bruce was out of his mind last night that he had said those words. He was afraid and he felt guilty. Hilla looked at the card on the table again.

She felt even angrier!

"Halle, I feel like I’m in a bad mood right now."

Halle replied, "You are in a bad mood because you care about him. If you are angry, why did you pretend to be indifferent yesterday? Were you trying to make him care about you?"

"He was hugging his ex-girlfriend. How could I be fine with that? Even if I don’t care about him, I am now the dignified Mrs. Anderson, the real wife of his. If someone tries to seduce my husband, how am I going to live with that?"

"So she was doing this for her own pride."

Halle smiled and didn’t speak. Hilla glanced at Halle with a guilty conscience and whispered, "Halle, do you want to laugh at me now? You can laugh. I won’t feel embarrassed anyway."

Hilla already felt embarrassed, but Halle only smiled at her and did not say anything, which made her feel even more agitated.

In the end, Hilla could only jump her feet and say, "If you want to laugh, then laugh. I am jealous. I’m petty and angry. I’m pissed when I saw him hug another woman. I feel uncomfortable even when he talks to his ex-girlfriend. Anyway, I’m your sister. It’s not shameful to be laughed at by you."

Hilla acted like she did not care about anything anymore. Halle couldn’t help but

laugh at her stubbornness.

"You don’t want him to disgrace you and you did not think that Bruce was out of his mind, either, right? You think that he suddenly became so attentive to you because he was trying to show you goodwill or because he had a guilty conscience, right?" Halle said with a smile.

Hilla, knowing that Halle was right about what she was thinking, said nothing. Halle said in a low voice, "Haven’t you discussed this with him before? I remember you vowed to believe that he had nothing to do with his ex-girlfriend."

"Yes, I did believe him in the beginning, but now they were hugging each other. Bruce still let her lean on him, and he was holding her waist."

The more Hilla spoke, the angrier she became, and her little face turned red with anger.

That look of anger clearly showed that she had endured it and did not mention it with Bruce last night.

"Alright, look at you. If you don’t believe him, why don’t you go and question him on the spot and then directly settle things with him?"

"That, that is because there were many people at the time, and I was also doing it for his sake."

"It seems that you care about him, and you didn’t flare up at that time, which means that you are just angry and jealous. It’s not like that you don’t believe him."

Hilla snorted and turned her face, "I’m not jealous."

She was. Why would she be so stubborn? Hilla did not want to pocket her pride while sulking, but Bruce was probably still upset about it.

Sure enough, in the president’s office of the Anderson Group building.

Bruce stared at Horton on the screen, his brows furrowed, the arc of his jaw taut, his thin lips pursed.

"You think Hilla was not interested?"

"She said it was dark and she didn’t want to go, nor was she angry with me."

When he said the last sentence, Bruce frowned, his deep black eyes filled with worry.

In the end, he said reluctantly, "It seems that she doesn’t care about me."

Horton was stunned and could not help but say, "Hilla met someone outside?"

As soon as Horton finished speaking, Bruce glared at the phone screen with hatred. The pitiful resentment that he had been abandoned, Horton could already feel it even from miles away.

Sure enough, Bruce snapped at, "Get lost!"

...

If Bruce were to fall out with him, Horton knew that he would suffer.

What was more, he didn’t want to remove the title of an advisor in love. After all, commanding Bruce gave him a feeling of being able to hold his head high and proud because he had made a lot of efforts to teach Bruce for many years.

How could he be willing to give up on Bruce who had so much value in use? "Don’t worry. Didn’t I say that this possibility will help you better?" "She did not!"

Bruce’s deep eyes shone with a cold light, and he answered firmly without the slightest hesitation, "She did not".

It was as if a second later, he would be truly cuckolded.

Horton pursed his lips and thought, "You kept saying this so nervously and so forcefully. If I suspect her again, I know I won’t end well."

"There are only two possibilities when a woman sees her husband with other women, she’s not angry about it. One is that she has an affair and the other is that she doesn’t like you," said Horton.

Of course, the first possibility had already been rejected so that could only be the second possibility.

When Bruce heard this, his expression became even uglier. He found that Horton was not good at words. Bruce regretted communicating with him.

"She likes me!" This time, he was even more certain.

Horton rolled his eyes in disbelief, but he still followed Bruce and replied, "She probably likes you but she may not fall in love with you."

"I think you should make her fall for you first."

Horton gave Bruce the most pertinent suggestion he had for the first time in nearly thirty years.

Moreover, his words were definitely from the bottom of his heart, and he meant it.

This time, Bruce listened. He furrowed his brows and said very unwillingly, "What should I do?"

"It’s simple. Women need a sense of security. You can use money, ability, and martial ability to show that you can protect her. As long as your impression is good enough, she will definitely fall for you.

"Look. The heroes on TV who saved the beauties, and also ... the moment when the male lead appeared like a superhero. Do you know about superheroes? When they jumped off the plane, wearing sunglasses, gun on shoulder, and the way they walk was so cool. Women like those kinds of men and they even scream for them."

Horton said with a face full of excitement as if he had just come down from a plane. He couldn’t help but hold the glasses on his face, feeling that he was simply handsome and compelling.

Bruce’s furrowed brows had never relaxed. He barely heard of these. Could this be the generation gap that Hilla told him about?

After a while, the man said in a low voice, "You can’t hold a gun walking in the street. It can be dangerous!"

He was a good citizen, and people should learn from him.

Horton was stunned. Then, he touched his forehead helplessly and said, "Can’t you go to the outdoor simulation base? The guns there aren’t real, and Hilla definitely doesn’t know how to use guns either. When the time comes, she’ll need you to help her. By the way, you can show her your advantages."

What advantages did he have?

That he was old?

That he was an old virgin?

He thought a lot. At last, he realized that the best advantage he had was that he was wealthy!

Bruce hung up the phone. He picked up his clothes and walked out.

It was not dark yet, he had to fully display his strengths.

James saw Bruce suddenly come out of the office. He was so scared that he rushed over, but before he could reach Bruce, he saw that Bruce had already entered the elevator alone and left.

Watching the president leave silently, James felt a chill in his heart and felt that his position as the first assistant of the Anderson Group was getting more and more unreachable!

What should he do? At such a young age, James, a special assistant, did not want to lose his job.

Not far away, several female assistants looked pitifully at the back of James, who was "abandoned’ and secretly shook their heads, "Look, Mr. Anderson seems to have dumped James. James is looking at the president with innocent and affectionate eyes."

"The only pair of gay lovers in our building broke up. They used to be so romantic and beautiful. What a pity."

"The president cheated on James. I’m afraid James had been abandoned. You can’t see how much James wanted to chase after him just now, but Mr. Anderson didn’t even look at him and just left."

What a pitiful man!

A few people secretly felt pity for James. James’s phone suddenly rang.

Looking at the name displayed on the screen, James quivered and started to stay focused.

"Mr. Anderson!"

"Okay, okay, I’ll book it right away."

"What about the time?"

"I understand."

After James answered the phone, he finally heaved a long sigh of relief. It seemed that he was still useful to Bruce and his work was temporarily preserved.

"James is so pitiful. Look how happy he is after receiving Mr. Anderson’s call. He must love Mr. Anderson very much!"

"I have shipped so many couples. I don’t believe that Bruce and James would just break up that easily. I won’t give up on them even though they have already given up on each other."

"I heard that Hilla from the Fourth Design Department has left her job. She should have broken up with Mr. Anderson."

"But I heard that Mr. Anderson seems to have secretly married and his wife is also a rich lady. They attended a party not long ago, and no one dared to report it to the media. I also heard it from a friend who just came back from abroad. She happened to attend the party that day and saw Mrs. Richards called the lady Mrs. Anderson."

"Oh my god, Mr. Anderson has already had a wife. The Andersons must be asking for a child. Poor James, he is not able to do this!"

At this time, James, who was booking tickets for the outdoor shooting range for Mr. Anderson, said, "Mr. Anderson needs me, and my work is saved. The housing loan for next month will be settled."

Hilla came back from school and took the design drawing for the fashion competition that she had not completed yet. As soon as she entered, she saw Bruce sitting upright in the living room.

She was slightly stunned and subconsciously glanced at the sunset outside the door. She thought, "Why does he come back so early?"

"Aren’t you busy at the company today?" The land of the new airport was going to be auctioned soon, and the new airport project was going to be bid in the second month after the auction. Bruce should be very busy at this time.

Rudi was finally not in his way because he was at the hospital. Why didn’t Bruce take this chance to realize his ambitions but have a rest?

"I’m not busy. I’ll take you to the mall."

Hilla thought to herself, "He can’t get over the mall stuff."

"I don’t need anything, and you don’t need to make me happy like this."

She had lived a wealthy life since she was a child. Even if the Holt Corporation went bankrupt, she had never suffered from lacking money. Therefore, she was different from other women. She had some hobbies, but she did not like shopping that much.

Moreover, she didn’t have the habit of shopping to vent her anger.

Bruce furrowed his brows. Hilla had rejected him and said that he didn’t need to make her happy but she was indeed unhappy now.

What should he do? His wife was unhappy and didn’t let him please her. Bruce felt that his role as her husband was at stake!

Bruce grabbed Hilla’s hand and said solemnly, "I have money!"

He was determined to show Hilla his wealth so that she would fall for him.
