Chapter 2

Richard asked me if I wanted to have a meal.

I guessed he was rejected by Claudia.

With the idea of taking advantage of a free meal, I got in the car with him, wearing a mask.

We were going to a very private restaurant, I didn't know when he made the reservation.

But I soon regretted making this decision.

I never expected that we would meet here with Claudia and one of her patrons.

He was a playboy and also the first one who asked me to be a stand-in. With my help and advice in the previous month, he had already won Claudia's and rarely needed me anymore.

Here, I forced myself to look away and silently repeated countless times in my heart, "You can't see me. You can't see me. You can't see me..."

But I ignored the fact that there was a celebrity next to me, wearing sunglasses and a mask, who was really eye-catching.

The gazes of the two men met, as if sparks were about to fly.

It turned out that Richard took off his sunglasses...

I sadly held my forehead. The only thing that wasn't too bad was that the playboy across from me, hadn't noticed me yet.

"What a coincidence, Claudia!" Richard spoke first.

My sister elegantly waved her hand and said, "Richard, you seem on a date with someone."

Gee, I didn't want that attention.

"Who is this, anyway?" Richard looked at the playboy.

"Hello, I'm Mike. Nice to meet you," the playboy smiled slightly, "You are Richard, right?"

I can imagine Richard raised his eyebrow sarcastically, which sharply contrasted with the nonchalant playboy across from him.

Richard was not his match.

Then I realized I was a bit too happy about others' misfortune.

Mike turned his attention to me, "Richard, is she your friend?"

At this point, it was my turn.

Claudia on the opposite side also noticed me because of this sentence.

She smiled and said, "Since we've met here, how about having a meal together?"

No way!

Richard was very competitive, so he nodded and said, "Okay, why not?"

I was done!

When Richard pulled me out from behind, I clearly saw the shocked faces of the two people opposite.

Claudia didn't need to be mentioned. After all, I was a just a double of her.

It was mainly about Mike. I looked up and saw the disbelief in his eyes, as well as other complicated things.

Finally, we entered the same private room.

Richard had a huge crush on Claudia. And I was just a double of her. It was really embarrassing...

I really wanted to punch Richard. How could he agree to join them?

It was obvious that they wanted to humiliate us.

"Claire, how come are you with Richard?" Claudia asked me, but her eyes intentionally or unintentionally looked at Richard.

At the same time, my phone lit up, and Mike on the other side withdrew his gaze.

He sent me a message.

Mike: [What's going on?]

I almost passed out when I checked my phone. There were several messages from Yann, which I was supposed to meet every Thursday.

There were two messages that I hadn't replied to last night.

Yann: [Why didn't you reply to me?]

Yann: [Then I'll come find you tomorrow.]

There were two messages from today.

Yann: [Where are you?]

Yann: [ went to your house. The butler said you didn't go back last night.]

I replied to Yann first: [I stayed at a friend's house yesterday, and we're having a meal today.]

The reply came quickly: [When will you be free?]

I promised firmly: [I will definitely be free tonight!]

Yann: [Okay, I'll wait for you.]

Mike: [Who are you messaging with?]

I held my forehead.

Me: [A friend asked me something urgent.]

Me: [Richard called me to eat, so I came without thinking twice.]

Mike: [Really?]

Me: [Absolutely true, no doubt about it.]

Fake, lying.

I felt guilty now.

I used Claudia's name to deceive for free meals, drinks, and a lot of money, and I had deceived more than one person, although they were all willing.

Unfortunately, at this time, Claudia also spoke up, "Are you two in a romantic relationship now?"

Silence.

Richard and I spoke at the same time.

Richard, "Yes."

Me, "No... Oh, yeah, we are together."

Pay extra, and thank you.

Richard looked at Claudia, "Claudia, what is your relationship with him?"

Claudia smiled lightly, "Mike and I are old friends."

I almost burst into laughter when I heard it.

An old friend would leave several female companions in the bar at one o'clock in the middle of the night and drive specially to make her brown sugar water.

Hmm... old friends...

I secretly imitated her in a weird and ambiguous way, almost unable to hold back my expression.

Then my foot was kicked by someone intentionally.

Uh.

It was a bit unlucky.

I looked at Mike on the opposite side and understood.

It was him. He looked at me with his charming eyes and couldn't help but laugh.
