âIf there is a breach of contract regarding the childâs custody, the violator will have to pay a billion yuan as monetary penalty.â
She bit her lower lip hard before saying, âPlease give me some time; Iâll pay the penalty.â
âEh?â
He crossed his graceful legs as he sat on the sofa and asked casually, âCan you really gather one billion just by yourself?â
âPlease believe that Iâll pay up.â
âNot at all,â he coldly said, âIâm planning to regain custody of the child.â
âNo!â She lost her voice as her heart squirmed with sorrow at the thought of losing her son. âPlease! Please donât take Youyou away from me.â
âGive me a reason not to.â
She tearfully replied, âI love him, and he canât bear to leave me too!â
He pondered for a moment before saying coldly, âI wonât take him away.â
She stared disbelievingly at him, not having expected for him to agree so easily.
âBut...â he hedged, his pair of eyes regarding her more deeply.
âBut?â Her heart hung in the air.
âYou have to stay by my side.â
â...â
She drew in a sharp breath.
âStay... by your side?â
He asked with a smile, âWhy? Whatâs the matter with that?â
âMr. Mu, are you jokingââ
âBe my woman.â Before she could complete her question, the man tyrannically and coldly cut her off.
She looked at him, feeling lost. Under the moonlight, the man leisurely spread himself out on the couch like an ancient king â ruthless, cold-blooded, and domineering.
âWhat?â His thin lips formed a smile at her startled look and he asked, âI want you; are you willing?â
âMiss Yun, I think you have no foresight.â he jested, âMany women are willing to line up from here to Paris just for my attention, yet you arenât willing even when I want you. Arenât you playing hard to get?â
She sneered inwardly at his words and wiped her tears away.
While she was still worried, his taunting somehow calmed her down.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âIf thatâs the case, why donât you choose from them?â
He coldly chuckled. âYou donât know men at all.â
âI...â
âIf you arenât willing, the door is over there. Help yourself out.â She was surprised at his words.
Heâs letting me go?
âYou are really letting me go?â
âI am not imprisoning you. You have your legs.â
She pondered, lifted her chest high, and told him before heading for the door, âIâll pretend this didnât happen.â
The man quietly added as she turned to leave, âThe lawyerâs letter will be served tomorrow after you walk out of the door.â
That stopped her in her tracks. She stood rooted to the spot, her spine tensing from shock and fear.
This man was undoubtedly serious.
Can I win?
Can I fight against the Mu family?
She was powerless against such a mighty conglomerate.
Her eyes fumed with anger, and she turned to him with a stricken face. âDespicable!â
His lips glaringly arched into a deep and provoking smile.
He knew her too well. He knew she would be unable to walk out of this door.
âI do anything to get what I want,â he squinted and said provocatively, âand the same goes for women.â
