Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 601

"I'm the same age as Julie," Winnie replied stiffly. She was put off by George's flirtatious tone, but she answered honestly out of respect for Julie.

"As for hobbies... I enjoy reading."

"Reading? How boring. You should come out with me sometime. I'll show you what real fun is like!"

Though George was supposedly asking Winnie out, his tone carried a hint of disdain. His eyes, however, never left her face. They were filled with an obvious hunger that thankfully went unnoticed by Winnie, who kept her head down out of nervousness.

Anyone who caught that predatory look would have felt sick to their stomach.

Yolanda's gaze turned cold. She was about to lead Winnie away when George beat her to it by trying to get rid of her first. Annoyed by Yolanda's presence, George barked at her, "Hey! Go get me another champagne!"

When Yolanda didn't move, he raised his voice. "I'm talking to you! Are you deaf?"

Since Julie had not bothered to introduce Yolanda, he didn't care to know her name. "How dare you ignore my orders?"

"She's my cousin, not a server here!" Winnie frowned and grabbed Yolanda's hand. "We need to deal with some stuff, so we'll be leaving now."

"Did I say you could go?" Anger flashed in George's eyes. He was used to beautiful women falling over themselves to get his attention wherever he went. No one had ever dared to give him an attitude like Winnie just did.

"Are you sure you can handle the consequences of rejecting me?"

"Believe it or not, you won't be able to find a decent job anywhere in Riverdale if I say so!"

George was confident in this threat. While he couldn't actually blacklist her from every company in Riverdale, he had enough pull with several major corporations to make hiring or firing someone easy. He figured this would be enough to scare a naive woman like her.

Sure enough, he caught a flicker of hesitation in Winnie's eyes, and she stopped talking back. George's face lit up with smug satisfaction.

"That's more like it. Stick with me, and I'll make sure you're set for life. Your monthly income will be fifty times what it is now. I only have one requirement—that you come when I call..."

As he spoke, he reached out to touch Winnie's face.
