Todays encounters with his had really pushed her buttons , and she was dying to prove that Adrian was hers 39 Adrian got her drift and blushed slightly .

Maybe another day , he said .

I just want to hold you quietly for a whale Layla smiled , hugging his shoulders tightly , her heart full of sweetness .

This cory moment of embracing each other was prood enough of their deep , soul stirring Inve After a bit of intimate whispers , it was time for Adrian to leave .

Layla couldnt help but ask , Where are you sleeping tonight ! Adrian thought for a moment , his fingers idly stroking Layla in his arms .

The study , I guess .

Theres an empty one on the second floor That was the only optina left otherwise , hed have to crash on the couch .

⠀⠀ He didnt mind the couch , but how would he explain that to his and his pare parents ! Layla got her way and wrapped her arms around his waist , reluctant to let go .

You know Im scared of the dark , she said .

I cant sleep without you by my side .

Now that Im alone , Ill probably toss and turn all night .

Adrians heart softened instantly at her words .

He hugged her tightly .

I swear , after this , Ill sleep with you every night .

Finally calming Layla down , Adrian stepped out and saw the room that used to be his and Isis , momentarily lost in thought For the past five days of their marriage , theyd been sleeping in separate rooms , as his claimed to have a period , But today , that excuse didnt fly .

He needed another reason .

After some thought , he knocked on Isiss door .

Isiss room was close to Laylas , so the moment he knocked , Layla heard in is was tidying up her stuff when she opened the door to see Adrian , a bit surprised , Whats going on ? Didnt Layla manage to keep him ? I was planning to catch them in the act later ! But its okay .

Ill talk about the divorce with him , and with Layla around , maybe things will go smoothly , she thought But before Adrian could even step into the room , there was a creak behind him , and Layla opened the door .

He was instantly stunned .

buss gaze also fell on Layla , her eyes deep with meaning So insecure ? Why not just tie Adrian to her bra ? she mocked inwardly .

You guys arent sleeping yet ? I left something in the living room , thought Id go down to get it .

Layla acted like she had just bumped into them .

Iss eyes flashed with mockery as she sneered inwardly .

If anything , it was probably her heart that had been left on Adrian ! She was clearly rushing out to remind him , afraid that he might engage in even a single extra word with me .

As expected , Adrian didnt enter the roum , telling Isis , Tve got some urgent work to handle Go to sleep first .

Ill be back after finishing up in the lone ; itll disturb my sleep Isiss lipa curved slightly as she showed her understanding .

Tim a light sleeper , so you might not come back after youre done ; Ser ! How considerate I was the said inwardly .

Was she crazy ! Or was she … playing hard to get ? Adrian was left speechless .

What did his mean by this Refusing to sleep with He never doubted his love for him , so he wanted to ask if she was playing hard to get .

He really couldnt bring himself to ask that .

Finally , he went his watched Layla , who was hesitating to go downstairs , and kindly reminded her , Arent you going downstairs to get something ? Laylas attention was all on Adrian , having forgotten about that excuse long ago .

She forced a smile and turned to go downstairs .

I mentioned earlier if you know any companses that could invest As bis expected , he brought it up again , and a subtle siseer appeared at the corner of her mouth .

familys company rise to prominence , transforming from a wall workshop into a new star in Sans City ? The answer was parnesilarly talented in business .

Over the past 1900 years , to help their company grow , she actually reaches out to petite had grown large .

In just two years , he was alreads thinking about raising funds for expansion , constantly hinting for her to to be selfless anythore 11:36 .

다 Chapter 7 She picked up her coffee cup and took a sip saying calmly , Havent found any No explanation , just that- totally unlike her usual attitude toward them .

Surprisingly , Willum didnt i it get angry In fact , there wasnt even a hint of disappointment on his face .

After reassuring her that it was okay , he handed her a contract .

Actually , Dad found a solution .

A banks willing to lend us money , so we can inwest His eyes lit up , full of confidence for the future .

Then he added .

But they need collateral .

Our villa isnt enough , so I was wondering if you could use your house as collateral Dont worry .

Its just collateral .

You know our companys doing great .

Once we expand , the profits will multiply , and repaying the loan wont be an A trace of sadness flashed in Isis eyes , full of sarcasm Hmph ! So , the Anderson family really is insatiable , never smushed .

Not only do they want to squeeze some petty cash from me , but now theyre eyeing my house ! Yeah , tens or hundreds of thousands of benefits are nothing compared to a luxury mansion worth hundreds of millions , she scoffed inwardly Before she time traveled , William had also eyed her house , but not at this time .

Maybe her attitude today spurred them on , making them impatient .

She turned cold , refusing without hesitation .

I will never use my house as collateral Williams e eyes were full of surprise at her words .

He didnt expect her to refuse again .

Previously , whenever they asked her for something , she would readily give it .

But now ….

Williams face darkened immediately .

This , were family .

How can you be so heartless ! Its just collateral , not selling it way .

Isis shot back firmly , word by word .

Without bothering to listen to Williams yelling behind her , she turned and left .

She was afraid if she stayed any longer, she might just lose it and get physical with him .

Did they really think I was stupid enough not to see through their schemet Using my house as collateral ? No way ! Theyd never repay the loan and were just out to squeeze every last drop of value out of me ! Isiss heart sank to the depths .

In the living room , Zoe saw his heading out and shouted after her .

Where are you going ? You havent made the lunch yet ! But his didnt even look back .

Being ignored , Zor fumed , cursing inwardly .

Shes gone mad ! Absolutely mad ! At this moment .

William came out of the study , his face gloomy .

Seems has got some issues with Adrian , wont spend a dime on us anymore .

His eyes flashed with a hint of sinister .

I just brought up mortgaging the house , and she straight up refused .

Hearing this , Zor cursed under her breath , Look at her , not even cooking .

Wheres the manner of a lady ? I cant take this Im telling Adrian to divorce her ! Dvorer now ! You dont want all those benefits from the Moure family ? Willum frowned .

Zoe was momentarily stumped .

Of course , she wanted them ! Shed dream about them .

William sighed , adding Paty its our son who lost interest in her first .

If Isis had cheated , we couldve squeezed her dry … Zor , simmering with anger, suddenly perked up at that Right If ls made a mistake , we could manipulate her all we wanted ! Hope sparked in her , and greed slathered like a snake through her heart .

No worries .

If she wont mess up on her own , well help her William looked at her suspiciously , not catching her drift .
