Chapter 126

Nathan stopped in front of her. Looking down at her with charming eyes, he whispered, “My mom is not in good health. I have been taking her abroad to treat her illness over the years. Me ntal diseases cannot be cured completely, and it’s best not to agitate her.”

Caroline, who already knew about it, curled her fair fingers.

“A warmhearted person like Mrs. Faraday probably has her own story. I also heard that Nathan is an illegitimate child,” Caroline thought..

Nathan was filial and listened well to Yuna.

Right then, Nathan extended his hand to pinch her delicate chin and lifted her head so she met his gaze. “My mom adores you. Do you think she can handle the truth if I tell her?”

Feeling troubled, Caroline bit her lip and said, “But we also can’t continue being like this.”

“Caroline, stay with me for another half year.”/

“What?” Caroline thought.

When Caroline heard his words, she looked up at him.

Her skin was as fair as a newborn baby, and the layer of fine hair was crystal clear and fragile, seemingly clean and tender.

Nathan looked at her lip which she bit. “Do you understand me? I want you to continue acting as my wife for another half a year. I’ll slowly deal with my mom during this time.”

“Is he asking me to continue being a replacement?” she wondered.

“No,” she refused right away.

Nathan pinched her chin hard and said, “What did you just say, you ungrateful ingrate? I gave you a sports car worth 1,8 million dollars for nothing, and my mom has wasted her time caring for you.”

“Those are two different matters.”

“Caroline, aren’t you afraid something will happen to my mom? You are the one who messed with us first. Don’t forget that you started this idea of being a replacement.”

Caroline felt she was also a victim but couldn’t do much as Yuna treated her kindly. If something happened to Yuna because of her, she would never feel at ease in her life.

O However, she didn’t want to be a replacement any longer. They agreed that the deal was over anyway.

Now that Shirley was gone, Nathan decided to make Caroline replace her right away.

Caroline looked at him and asked, “What do you mean by being a replacement for half a year? Do you want us to be together?”

Nathan stared at her intensely. “What do you think?”

“That should be it. What ulterior motives does he have?” she wondered.

Caroline pushed him away and was about to leave.

However, Nathan held her tender waist and gently lifted her onto the desk.

Caroline was shocked by the cold grip on her hips. As they were in his office, she immediately struggled to break free. “Let me go. I don’t want to sit here.”

Looking at the bitter look on her face, Nathan restrained her movements domineeringly and muttered, “Caroline, aren’t you happy to be with me? I’ll give you whatever you want except for status and children.”

Caroline had never considered asking for status and children because she could not give them to him either.

“Nathan, I think you are trying to make me your mistress by making me play as your wife.”

“Do you allow me to?” Then, he lowered his head, kissed her red lips, and murmured h oars ely, “Caroline, I will cherish you.”/

Nathan indeed said that.

His handsome face was right before her eyes. Although her body slightly turned to jelly, Caroline raised her hands to push him away. “I can be a replacement, but I’m only doing it for Mrs. Faraday, not for you.”

Nathan thought, “Not for me?”

Nathan was so pis sed off that, he tried to cover her mouth. “Caroline, don’t force me to make you mine by any means.”
