Chapter 10 Laura’s heart fluttered.
Laura grabbed her change of clothes. “No!”
Then, she went into the bathroom
The sound of water flowed, and the man stared at the bathroom door, his brow twitching
No? Did that mean she had no intention of continuing with him?
For some reason, his heart felt heavy.
What was wrong with him? He was handsome, wealthy, and never messed around with other women
was pretty good, wasn’t he?
Laura, clean and changed came out of the bathroom and went to the dressing table with a hairdryer.
try when you slept love in the room In the old house, the dressing tables were old–fashioned. They were supposed to be antiques, but they were actually quite scary
Bert watched as the woman’s long hair fell down, and the hairdryer lied her hair slightly. He thought that if these days continued, it would be really good
With that thought, he got up and took the hairdryer from the woman, who was struggling to blow her her, and began to help her.
Laura looked at Bert’s reaction in the minor. His lips were pursed, and his expression was focused, but his face was still handsome.
She had been seduced by
by this face, and she had agreed to Old Master Higgins marriage proposal Last night, she had been seduced by this face again, and she had
confusedly pushed him down and slept with him…
Originally, it was just drying hair, but as they went on, the atmosphere changed
A strange, ambiguous, and enchanting atmos
atmosphere arose between them…
Even after the sound of the hairdryer stopped, the strange atmosphere lingered
The main thing was, why was Bert now hugging her from behind, his head resting on her shoulder with a blissful expression?
“Um, Mr. Higgins, we’re getting divorced the day after tomorrow. Don’t you think this is a bit inappropriate?”
Bert stiffened, opening his eyes. Had he been bewitched?
But why didn’t want to let go?
She smelled so good and she was so soft to hold…
The man frowned slightly. “Who said we’re getting divorced? We’re not
“Har That’s what a dog would say! A dog drafted that agreement?” Laura scoffed
All the novels are free!
If it weren’t for his pride, Bert would have barked
But seeing Laura’s furious expression, he softened his tone, remembering the tips Sunny had given him on
to win ay
woman back.
you haven’t won her over, it just means you haven’t thrown enough money at her. Once you do, even an angel will give in.
20 million, plus what I gave you yesterday. No divorce.”
“No way!”
Laura’s beart skipped a beat, but thinking about having to deal with those Higgins women later, she shook her head again
“100 million” was losing it. To amid divorce, he didn’t care about the cost, but he was also digging himself a huge hole in his pursuit of his wife
One hundred million
Laura’s heart skipped a beat-
One hundred million was a world away from tens mition.
Ten million might not be enough for her to retire comfortably, especially with a sick mother and a younger brother still in school, but one hundred million could…
She would never have to worry about money again.
“Smonth?”
Bert froze for a moment. What had he dona? He didn’t mean to renew the contract for six months, he didn’t want a divorce at all.
“We’re already together, and you’re still thinking about the contract?
Laura looked surprised “So. Mr. Higgins, you want to use one hundred million to buy my lifelong obedience?”
That’s not what I meant.”
what do you mean, Mr. Higgins? One hundred million to renew for six months. If those women from your Higgins Family cause me trouble during these six months,
won’t hold back. I won’t be as tolerant as I’ve been this past year. Except for Old Master Higgins, I won’t be nice to anyone.
Also, even though you’re back, I hope what happened last night won’t happen again, I won’t drink anymore, and I hope you’ll honor the contract and keep your word. You
don’t like me, so don’t do things like that to me again
Laura spoke at length, finally adding. “Or, we can get a divorce on Monday,”
it won’t be me that Old Master Higgs continues to set up on blind dates.”
Was he about to sign an unequal treaty that would sell his country out and cede temtory?
