Possessed No More: The True Star Returns to Claim Her Throne-Chapter 52: Date

Since they were in the hotel room, Cole Sinclair wasn’t wearing a jacket. He had on a slate-blue shirt, dark gray suit trousers, and a pair of hotel slippers.

Riley Perry, on the other hand, had already changed into her going-out clothes. She had even taken the time to do her makeup. A small red beauty mark was now placed by her nose on her otherwise fair, flawless face. The tails of her eyebrows were extended, the corners of her eyes were winged, and her full, glossy red lips looked utterly enticing. Cole Sinclair couldn’t resist; he lowered his head and stole a kiss.

But the moment his lips touched hers, Riley Perry pushed him away. "Hey! Why are you eating my lipstick? Now I’ll have to touch up my makeup later. Do you even want to go out or not?"

Cole Sinclair didn’t care at all. He declared brazenly, "You’ll have to touch it up anyway, so I might as well kiss you properly!" With that, he leaned in again.

Riley Perry tried to dodge, but there was no escaping Cole Sinclair’s clutches. He pulled her firmly into his arms. "Hey, what’s with you? You actually have a hobby of eating lipstick? In that case, I should just give you my lipstick. You can eat all you want... HAHAHA, don’t touch my waist, it tickles..."

Heedless of her protests, Cole Sinclair kissed her for a good while longer before finally letting her go. Fifteen minutes later, the two of them appeared in the hotel’s parking garage.

Standing in front of a black Rolls-Royce, Cole Sinclair was about to pull open the door and get in. "Alright, where do you want to go?"

Riley Perry said, "President Sinclair, can we go without a driver?"

"Without a driver?"

Riley Perry nodded, pulling Cole Sinclair toward an ordinary SUV. "Right, no driver. We’ll drive ourselves."

The SUV belonged to Rocco. She opened the passenger door and gestured for Cole Sinclair to get in.

Cole Sinclair was speechless. ’This is the first time I’ve ever been in a car driven by a woman. But... isn’t this car a little too shabby?’

"Is this your car?"

Riley Perry was already driving out of the parking garage. "How could I afford a car? I borrowed it from a friend. Your cars are all too flashy. I don’t want to be stared at by a crowd while we’re out shopping."

For this reason, she had also brought a mask for Cole Sinclair. Hehe, she would make sure no one would see that face of his that attracted trouble like a magnet.

Cole Sinclair said nothing more. ’I knew my little lover wasn’t doing very well, but I didn’t realize it was this bad.’

’Three years in the business and she hasn’t even earned enough for a proper apartment, let alone a simple car to get around in.’

He took out his phone and quickly typed two lines of text to Henry Hayes.

Henry Hayes, who thought he could slack off for a day since the President was out on a date, sighed helplessly when he saw the message. ’The President is really serious about her, isn’t he? He really is!’

Just look at the messages he sent: "Increase Riley Perry’s allowance to five million a month."

"Go pick out a new car, something suitable for Riley Perry."

Upon receiving the messages, Henry Hayes promptly went to order the car.

Other people might need an appointment to buy a car, but not them.

The President owned a top-tier luxury car dealership in both Dragonspire and here. All Henry had to do was make a call, and a car would be delivered swiftly.

Just like Henry Hayes, Samson Sinclair and Spencer Sinclair, who were following the SUV, were having the same thought.

The Eldest Young Master had recently been targeted by a certain power from Continent F. It was one thing for him to suddenly come all the way out to this film city, but now he was even dismissing his driver over a single word from Miss Perry!

The drivers of the Sinclair Family were all specially trained professionals, responsible for protecting the Eldest Young Master’s safety.

Dismissing the driver—wasn’t that being completely reckless with his own life?

After all this, they expected anyone to believe she was just his little lover? Who would fall for that?

"Seven reported that two groups of professional assassins have already infiltrated the country in the last couple of days."

Spencer Sinclair pulled out a cigarette pack, flicked the bottom with a finger to pop one out, and stuck it between his lips. But he didn’t light it, his eyes fixed intently on the SUV ahead.

"It’s just one diamond mine. To think they’d get murderous just because they couldn’t outbid the Eldest Young Master. They’re really courting death!"

Samson Sinclair was silent. ’Listen to Fourth Brother’s arrogant tone. That’s a diamond mine conservatively estimated to be worth over a hundred billion! If some upstart who came out of nowhere snatched it away, wouldn’t anyone be furious?!’

"Anyway, we need to be extra vigilant for the time being. The Eldest Young Master... his physical condition is delicate. We absolutely cannot let anything happen to him."

Spencer Sinclair’s expression turned serious as well. "We should still try to persuade the Eldest Young Master to return to Dragonspire as soon as possible tonight. That’s our home base."

Samson Sinclair shot Spencer Sinclair a look. "The Eldest Young Master knows what he’s doing."

’The Eldest Young Master has finally gotten a taste of it, and he’s right in the middle of the honeymoon phase. Besides, Miss Perry is so charming. Who could possibly persuade him? We can only hope the Eldest Young Master can control himself!’

’If you ask me,’ Samson thought, ’the Eldest Young Master isn’t short on cash. He should just have Miss Perry quit the entertainment industry. Being an artist is exhausting, pays little, and you get trashed by haters online. Isn’t anything better than being an artist!’

While the two were talking, Riley Perry’s car had already pulled into the mall’s underground parking garage.

"Let’s go. Mr. Sinclair, you’ve probably never tried shopping like a regular person, have you? Today, I’m going to show you the fun of shopping."

Cole Sinclair thought, ’What fun could there be in shopping? It’s just a waste of time and nothing else.’

The car doors opened and they got out. Riley Perry walked over to the passenger side and, as soon as Cole Sinclair stepped out, she placed the mask she’d prepared over his face.

"Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Sinclair. But what can I do? You’re just too handsome, and I don’t want anyone else to see you~" Her voice was already pleasant to begin with, and now she deliberately drew out the last syllable, making Cole Sinclair’s ears tingle.

Given his status, it wasn’t really appropriate for him to appear in a place like a shopping mall anyway, so wearing a mask was actually perfect.

However, remembering how she had pushed him away last night, he didn’t feel like agreeing so easily.

"Fine, I’ll wear the mask. But you have to agree to one condition."

Riley Perry immediately pouted. "You’re haggling over such a small thing? Mr. Sinclair, you’re so mean."

Behind the mask, Cole Sinclair’s mouth was already split in a grin, but he was trying his best to keep the expression out of his eyes. He pretended to take the mask off. "Just say yes or no. Otherwise, I’m not wearing it."

Riley Perry quickly grabbed his hand. "No, no, keep it on! I’ll agree, alright? But what exactly is your condition?" 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

A smile played on Cole Sinclair’s lips. "I haven’t thought of one yet. I’ll tell you when I do. You can owe me this one for now. Alright, let’s go. It’s getting late. I’ll take you to buy some things."

Riley Perry had no choice but to follow him toward the elevators, muttering under her breath as she walked behind him, "As expected of a successful businessman. So shrewd, making deals out of everything. I think you’re just trying to trick me!"

Although she had lowered her voice, they weren’t far apart, and Cole Sinclair heard every word clearly. He found her behavior utterly adorable.

"What are you mumbling about? Speak up."

Riley Perry immediately denied it. "I didn’t say anything! You misheard me!"

After saying that, she took several large strides forward, reaching the elevator doors first and pressing the ’up’ button.

Suddenly, Cole Sinclair felt that the woman before him was just so vibrant. She was coy, she was dramatic, she was innocent, she was adorable, she was a temptress, and she never said what she truly meant. She was so full of life, a vibrancy that made his heart yearn for her.
