Chapter 84 Mikayla finished her morning routine she went downstairs and was surprised to find Jerome still at home. He was reading documents and drinking coffee.
Jerome was wearing a white shirt as he casually read with ease.
The morning sunlight streamed in through the French windows. It cast a gentle glow on his flawless face, making even his features seem more gentle.
Mikayla couldnât help but stare at him. Feeling her gaze, Jerome to look at her and a hint of pleasure appeared in his eyes.
Mikayla tried to regain her composure. No matter how goodâlooking he was, he was still a detestable man!
Mikayla asked coldly as she descended the stairs, âDid you move me to the bed last night?â
As soon as Mikayla said that, someone in the kitchen dropped their utensils.
Mikayla turned her head and saw a shocked Mike standing in the kitchen.
Mike quickly picked up the utensils he had dropped and pretended as if nothing happened by retreating into the kitchen.
âMrs. Amy, go insideâ¦â He even stopped Amy who was about to come out.
Amy was bewildered and she asked, âWhat are you doing? I need to ask Mrs. Miller what she wants for breakfast!â
Mike dragged Amy into the kitchen and said, âMrs. Amy, I think my spoon and fork are too slippery. Theyâre coated in oil.â
âTheyâre cleanâ¦â
Mike and Amyâs voices disappeared into the kitchen.
Mikayla suddenly realized that others might easily misunderstand what she had said now. She blushed slightly at the thought of that.
âIt was me,â Jerome said with a hint of mockery in his tone.
Mikayla suppressed her embarrassment and retorted coldly, âDidnât we agree that you wouldnât take advantage of me?â
12/2 Jerome put down the documents in his hands and looked at Mikayla. âCouples who quarrel should make up fast. Since weâve spent a night together, I think we can end this cold war.â
Mikayla was bewildered at his unreasonable logic.
Before she could speak, Jerome continued, âYou should get ready to attend the banquet to celebrate the Miller Groupâs successful acquisition tomorrow night.â
âSorry, Iâm not available,â Mikayla refused.
Since it was a banquet to celebrate the acquisition of Bernhal Enterprise, Kylie would undoubtedly be there. Hence, Mikayla didnât want to attend the event.
âAs my wife, itâs only normal for you to attend the event with me,â Jerome said.
Then, he took out two cards and placed them on the table. âThis card is for you to buy a new outfit.â
Mikayla reconsidered her decision since she could spend Jeromeâs money to buy new clothes.
After all, she wouldnât be able to spend his money anymore once they were divorced. Moreover, she did promise Jerome that they would interact like a normal couple..
âWhat if I bought jewelry and handbags with this card? You wouldnât make me pay for those once we get a divorce, right?â Mikayla asked cautiously.
Jerome bit back his anger after hearing her words and said, âEverything you buy is yours!â
âDeal.â Mikayla took the card and looked at the other card on the table. âWhatâs this card for?â
I âItâs the one million I promised to pay for the investment plan you proposed last time.â
Mikayla was puzzled at that and asked, âWhy are you still giving me the money since youâve decided to not use the plan â
Jerome sneered and said, âIâll fulfill my promise no matter what. I donât want you to think.
Iâm all talk and no action.â
Mikayla felt a burst of joy as she was rewarded handsomely.
She took the card and said, âThank you, Mr. Miller. Youâre truly a man of your word!â
