Oops My Toyboy Is A Hidden Tycoon

My Toyboy 26

Chapter 26 Jonathan heard the question and suddenly turned to look at Cynthia. “Ms. Jones, what do you think?” Cynthia feigned surprise. “Mr. Bennett, I don’t know who your beloved is. How would I know? But I’m sure she must be extraordinary.” Jonathan nodded in agreement. “She has an army of admirers.” Cynthia was a bit curious. She guessed Jonathan’s beloved must be one of Betrico’s top socialites. When Jonathan mentioned her, Cynthia thought she saw a spark in his eyes. Meanwhile, the viewers in the livestream were buzzing with discussion. [I never expected Jonathan to admire someone secretly.] [Even the most powerful people are careful and uncertain when it comes to love.] [I don’t think there’s any woman who would turn down a handsome guy like Jonathan, not to mention his status.] [Does that lucky woman even know that Jonathan loved her secretly?] – Cynthia then asked the question everyone watching wanted to know. “So, you have no idea if your beloved likes you?” Jonathan smiled. “I’m just one of her army. I only hope she doesn’t keep me waiting too long.” His humorous response lightened the mood instantly. Cynthia teased, “Fortune favors the bold. Why not be bold and court her? You might win her heart.” Then, turning to the camera, Cynthia gave her final summary of the interview. “Once again, thank you to Mr. Bennett for the interview. Let’s all wish him success in winning over his lady soon.” As the interview ended and the team started to leave the conference room, Cynthia stood up, ready to head out as well. But as she did, Jonathan immediately grabbed her by the arm. “Trying to run off after using me-is this your style?” Cynthia glanced around and saw that everyone else had already left. “I have to get back to the

station. It’s still work hours,” she explained. Jonathan checked his watch. “Your station is still working at 11:30 Have lunch with me first, then you can go.” With no other option, Cynthia made up an excuse about needing to prepare a feature on the resort and discuss some question. She told the rest of the team to head back without her. Lunch was delivered by Claude, as usual. Jonathan’s office was a suite, and the two of them ate lunch at the dining table in the “dining room.” Suddenly, Cynthia remembered something and let out a chuckle. “What’s so funny?” Jonathan asked while dealing with a shrimp. -Cynthia replied, “We’ve known each other for three years, and I think this is the first time we’re having lunch together.” It was true. They had known each other for three years, and most of their meetings were in the evening. Occasionally, they’d have dinner together, but never lunch. Jonathan placed the peeled shrimp into Cynthia’s bowl. “That’s because you’ve only ever treated me as a… bed warmer.” 1/3 13:18 Fri, Nov 1 B tu. Chapter 26 | ས �� 75% Cynthia, in the middle of sipping her soup, almost choked. The atmosphere grew a bit awkward. “Mr. Bennett, let’s not bring up the past, okay?” she said. “Fine, we can forget about the past, but what about last night? You suddenly came over and forced yourself on me. What was that about?” He said this slowly, but with a serious tone, as if he were discussing something important. This time, Cynthia really did choke, frantically searching for a napkin. Once she finally regained her composure, Cynthia spoke. “I’m sorry. I was a bit shaken up last night. I promise it won’t happen again.” Jonathan raised an eyebrow. “Then, I didn’t get any benefit.”

Cynthia paused. It was a rare moment that she was caught off guard. “What?” “Cynthia, do you want to be my girlfriend?” he asked. “I’m married,” Cynthia blurted out. “You call that a marriage? Is it even legally recognized?” Jonathan sneered. Cynthia was stunned. “You even know about that?” It wasn’t surprising. Given Jonathan’s status, he had probably uncovered all her secrets long ago. Jonathan was silent for a moment. “Filip doesn’t love you, and you know that. Instead of wasting your time on someone who will never come back, why not choose someone else to love? I think we’re a good match.” Jonathan fixed his gaze on Cynthia, his deep eyes like the ocean under a night sky. At this moment, his expression was so serious and intense, which made her heart race unexpectedly. “At least in that area, we’re compatible,” he suddenly added with a raised brow, instantly breaking the serious mood. Cynthia rolled her eyes at him. “What, no longer waiting for your beloved to notice you?” A glimmer flickered in Jonathan’s eyes. “Are you jealous?” Cynthia flashed a coy smile. “Are we even that close?” After finishing lunch, Cynthia put down her fork. “Mr. Bennett, to be honest, you’re quite skilled in bed.” Jonathan frowned, thinking, ‘Of all my qualities, that’s the only one she remembers?’ Cynthia continued, “We can keep seeing each other, but there’s a condition.” “What condition?” Jonathan asked. “No talk of business, no feelings involved-just fun. No ties, no interference in each other’s personal lives,” Cynthia said. Jonathan seemed a bit displeased. “So, you just want to sleep with me, but don’t want to be my girlfriend?” Cynthia nodded. “Being in a relationship is too complicated. Once we have feelings for each other, greed follows. We were -fine before, fulfilling each other’s needs and staying happy.” Cynthia knew they were attracted to each other; otherwise, they wouldn’t have been entangled for

three years. But she also understood that the gap between their statuses was too wide. There was no way they could end up together. Besides, she carried too many secrets. 2/3 III 3/3 13 18 Fri, Nov 1 Be Chapter 26 She had long since stopped believing in undying love. She and Pop had nosen each other for over 20 years from childhood sweethearts to barely being able to stand the eight of each other. Nothing in this world ways the came She wasn’t about to give anyone another chance to hart her. Jonathan, however, seemed dissatisfied, his brows furrowing Cynthia smiled calmly. If you don’t agree, then forget it” “Fine. But first, move into Greenfield Villa, Jonathan said Cynthia didn’t expect him to agree so easily. She replied, “I need to take care of some things first. Once that’s done. I’ll move in This time, Jonathan didn’t say anything more. In the afternoon, Cynthia even took a nap in Jonathan’s “bedroom,” not leaving until 2 pm when she finally arrived at the TV station. When Freddie saw Cynthia, he put down his thermos and hurried over to greet her. “Cynthia, you’re our star! The response to the interview was incredible. Ratings hit an all-time high, and several big advertisers specifically want to invest in our new show. Ad slots are being snapped up, and the BCB team even called to ask for advice. Alison said she’s going to reward you!” he said. Cynthia smiled. “I was just doing my job.” A crowd gathered around her. “Cynthia, you’re amazing. The news department’s phones have been blowing up! The first issue of The Elites was such a hit. Now, instead of us begging people for interviews, all these young elitesText © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

are reaching out to us. Some are even offering money for an interview!” “The first issue was so successful. Getting featured alongside Jonathan Bennett puts them in the same league. Of course, they want to be in it.” “Cynthia, tell us, how did you convince Jonathan?” Everyone surrounded Cynthia, eagerly awaiting her answer. Meanwhile, Lilian stood quietly off to the side, watching everything unfold. ୦ 13:18 Fri, Nov 1 B ti u
