Chapter 123
He didn’t insist, and leisurely picked up his handkerchief to wipe his fingers.
“I don’t know why you’re hesitating.
Theodore Anderson is disabled and is about to lose the company.
He’s no more useful than a stray dog.
And you know who I am now, right? You should know what to do.
Or is it that you’ve fallen in love with Theodore and don’t want to leave him?” @
The man said this with a smile.
The meaning of his words was crystal clear.
Ariana’s posture hadn’t changed since the moment she had sat down.
It wasn’t until he said this that she turned to him.
“As the CEO of BRD Group, how could you have a crush on me? With that kind of status, you must have seen all kinds of beauties.
It’s hard not to question your motives when you do all this just to get me.
”
She paused, placed her hand on the armrest and leaned in toward him slightly.
He stiffened for a moment.
She looked up at him, purity and innocence in her eyes.
“If you, Mr.
Fredrick, are so honest, why do you refuse to show your face?”
As she leaned forward, he smelled a faint fragrance from her.
He lowered his head and frowned.
The two then looked at each other silently for some time.
Neither was willing to be the first to break the silence.
ALL of a sudden, the candle went out.
The only light in the room was the flickering light from the screen.
The man handed her a contract, and said softly, “This will show how sincere I am.
”
Despite the low lighting, Ariana could tell what it was.
It was a contract for the property transfer of two villas and a shop downtown.
As soon as she signed her name, these properties, which were worth over ten billion, would belong to her.
Ariana gripped the paper tightly.
He was being exceptionally generous, but it made her feel uneasy.
She didn’t believe that it could be this simple.
As the CEO of the BRD Group, he could date any woman he wanted.
Why did he insist on a married one?
“If you’re with me, you will get much more.
” He spoke in a flat tone, as if arranging a simple business deal.
She felt like a commodity.

She remained silent and lowered her head, and he patiently awaited her response, rubbing the ring on his finger.

After some time, the calmness on Ariana’s face disappeared.
She bit her lip and looked hesitant.
Meanwhile, the man had remained completely motionless.
Ariana finally picked up the pen and signed the contract.
@
“Do you want me to be your lover or your wife?” she asked as she pushed the contract back across the table.
Her head was tilted and she had a look of innocent expectation in her eyes.
After examining Ariana, he sneered.
“It depends on your performance,” he said, reaching over the table and pinching her chin, hard.
His cold finger stroked her lips and she trembled slightly under his touch.
Despite the s@xual implications, his face remained cold.
“Before that, I have to collect something.
