Chapter 2 A Bad Girl

As soon as Duncan sent the message, Reba called him.

He answered the phone without even hesitating.

"Son, listen to me. Although Sharon divorced and kind of has a bad reputation, her mother told me that Sharon has changed now, so don't be prejudiced against her!"

Reba paused for a moment before she continued in a hesitant tone, "I also talked to her the last time I saw her. And I can tell that she is really serious about getting remarried. She will be a good wife, and won't go goofing around anymore."

Actually, Reba had already told Duncan about Sharon Holmes.

Hence, he already knew what kind of a woman Sharon was.

To rise up the ladder at work, she had an affair with her boss.

So she got divorced because of that.

Apart from the divorce, Duncan also knew that Sharon had dated more than a dozen men. Moreover, she was a heavy drinker and smoker.

Putting it all together, she had a bad reputation.

Now, she had agreed to go on a blind date with Duncan, because Reba had promised her that if she married him, then she could be the owner of half of his assets.

She also wanted to be in control of Duncan's salary.

After learning about her information and her requirements, not only did he not want to go on a blind date with her, he also did not want to have anything to do with her.

But since the system had assigned him the task now, she could be the perfect target.

"Listen to me. Don't be so picky. After all, you are not..."

Reba's endless persuasion came to his ears.

And that made him more annoyed.

He wondered if she thought of him as a lousy man to want such a woman as his wife.

"All right, mom. I know. I'm driving. I will talk to you later."

Before Reba could say another word, he hung up the phone.

"You brat! How dare you hang up on me?"

Reba sent him a text.

Duncan saw it, but didn't reply.

"Here's Sharon's phone number. Call her when you arrive there."

Reba forwarded a contact to him.

Looking at the phone number, Duncan shook his head with a smile. "Well, let's do good and punish her on behalf of her ex-husband and her ex-boyfriends."

Soon, Duncan arrived at her house in his Lamborghini.

It was a middle-class community, and just by looking around, he could tell that her family was not wealthy.

After parking the car, he called her. "Hello, I'm downstairs. Come quickly."

Sharon asked lazily, "Is the red Lamborghini downstairs yours?"

Duncan replied in a calm voice, "Yes."

Hearing that, Sharon said in an excited tone, "Alright, I am coming down now!"

A faint smile appeared on Duncan's lips.

He had been on so many blind dates, and he knew exactly the tricks of those women.

The reason Sharon had asked him to pick her up was because she wanted to find out if he had a car, and if he did, then what kind of a car it was.

"It's all tricks!"

Duncan hung up, sneering.

After a long while, Sharon appeared, wearing heavy makeup and designer clothes. She stood out among the people in her community.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting."

Saying that with a smug smile, she got in the car.

"It's okay. I didn't wait long."

Duncan smiled.

"Since we are here for a blind date, I'll be honest with you,"

Sharon said with a smile, glancing at him.

"If you have anything to ask me, go ahead." He smiled with confidence.

She put her index finger on her lower lip, looked at the car interior carefully, and asked, "Is this really your car?"

"Yes. It's the latest Lamborghini. I bought it just this year!"

Duncan lied with a straight face.

"But my mother told me that you... you don't have a lot of money,"

Sharon said with a serious look.

Clearly, she was suspicious as to whether he really owned the car or not.

Duncan pursed his lips, looking at her.

It was evident that her mother Jolie Holmes had told her about his situation.

He had expected it, so he didn't falter.

"I have made a lot of money lately, I'm better off now."

After saying that, Duncan immediately thought of the system. It seemed that he was not lying, after all.

Sharon nodded with a faint smile, and he could not tell if she believed him or not.

"Then do you have a house now?" she asked after thinking for a while.

"Not yet but I'm going to buy a fully furnished house in the city soon..." Duncan said, feigning to be embarrassed.

"Are you going to put my name on the property ownership certificate, then?" Sharon asked immediately.

"If we are going to get married, then sure!" Duncan nodded with a smile.

Sharon could not hide her delight when she heard that.

She stared at him and asked the last question on her mind, "How much money do you have in your account?"

"I have..."

Duncan motioned his hand, suggesting a seven-digit number while ogling her.

"Wow!"

Sharon gasped.

It took her a few seconds to calm down.

However, the greed in her eyes was so obvious.

She then said with a coy smile, "Well... I think that we should get to know about each other deeply!"

Her emphasis on the word 'deeply', made the hidden meaning more evident.

Duncan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

As long as he was rich, he could get a girlfriend. That was the life of wealthy men.

Back then, even if he had promised to put his date's name in the property ownership certificate, no one had wanted to marry him.
