Chapter 10: Chapter 10: Amelia Young is outside!
“Not in here?” Amelia Young’s voice came from outside in surprise.
She saw Enna Clark and Baron Lawrence leave one after the other. Sitting in the private room, she felt more and more uneasy, so she came out to look for them. She didn’t find Baron Lawrence in the corridor, and she thought about Enna Clark going to the restroom, so she tried to look for Enna.
Enna Clark was ‘not’ in the restroom.
Baron was not outside either.
What were the two of them…
Amelia’s heart sank.
Actually, she had sensed something unusual between the two of them since the moment Baron Lawrence coincidentally met Enna Clark on the set. The woman’s sixth sense told her that there was a story between the two.
It’s not that she didn’t think about directly asking Baron Lawrence, but in the end, their relationship was facilitated by both families’ elders. Ultimately, it was the Young Family that wanted to marry up with the Lawrence Family.
Baron Lawrence himself never showed the intention to be with her.
But that was Baron Lawrence, the man whom all women around the world dream of marrying! She was no exception!
Amelia stomped her foot and knocked on the door of the last occupied stall. “Enna, is that you?”
“Occupied!”
The anxious reply, with a distinct non-local accent, was clearly not Enna’s voice.
Amelia bit her lip, her face turning ugly, “Sorry, my mistake.”
After finishing, she quickly left.
In the restroom.
Enna let out a sigh of relief, almost collapsing.
Damn, that scared her.
She didn’t expect Amelia to be so persistent as to knock on the door, but fortunately, she was quick to react.
His rough fingertips rubbed her skin, as if igniting a fire all over her body.
“Apologize?” It was filled with sarcasm and coldness.
“Yes, I’m sorry. I apologize.”
If she had known that life encounters would lead her to bump into her ex-boyfriend everywhere, she would never have agreed to play the UNIQLO video game with Olivia Lewis.
She might as well surrender and admit defeat.
Baron Lawrence’s deep hawk-like eyes locked onto her as if looking at a prisoner, his thin lips touched slightly, “You owe me more than just this little bit.”
“Five years ago, you clung to me and wanted to marry. While I was preparing our wedding, why did you suddenly disappear?”
“…”
Because…
“I’ll tell you. Because you took the 750 thousand breakup fee from that woman.” He gritted his teeth, word by word, “Enna Clark, you’re something else! You even bargained the breakup fee; she offered you 150 thousand, but you knew I was worth more than that, so you asked for five times more before letting go.”
Years ago, he didn’t even know that there were such shameless and unscrupulous women in this world!
He thought that this woman couldn’t live without him, so he agreed to marry her under family pressure. But in the end, this woman slapped him in the face! She took the money from his mother and left without a second thought! If it wasn’t for his mother recording everything, he would never have believed that the money-grubbing Enna Clark in his mind was the pure and conservative Enna Clark.
She played him like a fiddle, dumped him one-sidedly, and dare come back with another man’s child.
Fine, that’s very Enna Clark!
“Was the 750 thousand spent happily?”
“…”
“You’re already back to work so soon, have you spent all the money?”
Enna’s face was pale, her fists clenched, and her chin raised as she stared into his eyes, “Yes, I’ve spent it all.”
There seemed to be thunder and lightning flashing in Baron Lawrence’s eyes, foreshadowing the storm to come.
“You don’t have to look at me like that; it would make me think you still have lingering affection for me.” Enna’s heart was in spasms, but she said, “I didn’t take your money for nothing. Given your status, you could easily support a college student, and gifts like a house and a car alone would cost more than that, right? Besides, I think I enjoyed playing with you all those years, so I didn’t get that money for free.”
Could she actually say those guilty words so confidently in front of him?!
In her eyes, his past favor was nothing but a fun time with the boss!
SHIT!
With a ‘bang’ sound, Enna reflexively turned her head away and looked at him in panic.
Blood flowed from Baron Lawrence’s fist, and he curled his lips into a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes. He reached out and grasped Enna’s chin, lifting it up like examining goods, “Since you’ve spent it all, do you want to earn some more?”
“…What do you mean?”
According to his personality, shouldn’t he throw her out immediately?
From then on, wouldn’t he be too high to look at her even for a moment?
Baron Lawrence grabbed her hands and pinned them over her head. The other hand slowly slipped under her clothes, touching her skin.
“You’re right; indeed, I still have lingering affection for you.”
Enna shuddered violently!
The next second, she was drenched with ice-cold water over her head.
“I still have lingering affection for your body. Since you’re willing to sell yourself, how about I buy you for fun?”
