“Grandpa’s here, I don’t want grandpa to see me alone, he wants a grandson.”
She listened, so it was for this, just to make his grandfather happy and give him a grandson. All, indeed, had nothing to do with love.
“Let me …”
“You’ve been thinking about it for a long time, I tore up that note, Halle, don’t be fighting for your life, FJ Club isn’t for you.”
She knew, she knew everything, that all the men there wanted were women’s smile, and in a world like that women were left with nothing but humility, but she…
Just as she was confused and rambling, the hands on her face had moved away. His two lips moved down and kissed her gently. Then she realized that the car had stopped and it was quiet all around.
His lips and teeth gently teased her lips, and he was not the first time to kiss her. But her whole body was trembling in his kiss, it was an unspeakable feeling. Hunter Dean’s kiss made her sick, but Ronan’s somehow made her in anticipation, looking forward to his deep kiss, as if only such a kiss could make her forget everything that happened before.
In the kiss, her hand waved inadvertently. She didn’t know where it touched, and the roar of the police car suddenly sounded inside and outside the car. Halle’s eyes widened, and she understood at once, no wonder the sound of the police car appeared so quickly, it was his car.
“Naughty.”
Catching her hand back and pausing the abrupt sound of the police car, he helped her sit in his arms and then took out two pieces of paper, “Sign it.”
She looked down and examined it, the top one was a marriage agreement and the bottom one was a divorce agreement, “Don’t worry, I will give you back your freedom, I will not detain your heart.”
He spoke softly against her ear, as if he was tempting her to sign the two agreements.
The neutral pen was put in her hand, it was so heavy. At the bottom of her heart, there was a voice telling her all the time, “sign it, and you’ll be free”. With the contents of the agreement, she knew that she would not have to worry about her basic life and could be a little rich woman without work in the future.
But, if they had a child, it would belong to him.
He was doing it to make grandfather happy and she could get rid of all troubles.
But her hand trembled, it couldn’t fall.
The phone, however, rang at the moment, she hastily picked it up as a way to get rid of her hesitation at the moment, “Hello.”
There was no time to look at the phone number, then the phone was connected.
“Halle, are you all right?”
Hunter Dean’s voice came with an apologetic tone.
So quickly, he knew about it.
“I’m fine, I’m with Ronan, I’m hanging up.”
She didn’t want to say one more word. This was the second time that she mentioned Ronan on the phone with Hunter Dean. The first time it was the wrong word, but this time she was sober to know what she was saying.
“Halle, Mrs Stone was coming in the evening.”
“Ah …”
The finger that was just about to press the end button immediately moved away, and she started to sweat on her forehead as soon as she heard about Agnes.
“She … doesn’t look good.”
“Did she ask you for money again?”
The phone moved from one ear to the other, she was so anxious, Agnes had better not find Hunter Dean for money.
“Well, she said Mr Hill had an accident and was in the hospital, maybe … maybe …”
Stammering, Hunter Dean couldn’t say anything else.
“Okay, I got it, thanks for telling me.”
Hung up the phone quickly and called Agnes. Her mother never called her when she had something. Maybe she had a guilty conscience, she was afraid the daughter wanted money from her. However, if she, her daughter, was not the closest to herself, who was it.
“Mom.”
This time, Agnes was quick to pick it up.
She cried as soon as she opened her mouth. This time, it really didn’t need to brew. It should be true. “Halle, Mr Hill was being chased to kill because he owed usurious loan. Now he lives in the hospital for rescue, and I don’t know if he can wake up. Even the medical bills, I don’t have any money to pay either. ”
“Mom, how much is owed?”
“Tens of millions, I don’t know exactly, Jaiden Hill said he could get it, but it’s been a whole day and there’s no way to perform the surgery.”
Agnes really cried. It didn’t sound like a lie. Halle didn’t understand how Agnes liked Joe so much, but this was her life. In her life, Joe was her misfortune.
“Mom, don’t cry, I’ll try to find a solution.”
“If you can help the Hill family get through this, mom will repay you in my next life.”
At the other end of the phone, Agnes seemed to have a runny nose and tears. Her voice was always choking.
It was Agnes who took her out of the orphanage. Listening to Agnes’s cry, her heart became more and more uncomfortable, “Mom, don’t say that, I will try my best.”
It was not for the Hill family, for her mother.
The phone was put down before she realized that she was still leaning on Ronan’s body.
“Don’t cry, girl.”
His fingers wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, “I promise you, tomorrow the Hill family will be fine.”
“Will it be okay even if I don’t sign?”
He nodded, “Yes.”
But her hand finally fell down, and when Halle’s name was signed on the two pieces of paper, she knew that while she was married, she was also divorced.
After signing, she would still have her freedom, and so would he.
She could go to school, she could work, but she had to cooperate with him to play this marriage well until the end.
“Grandpa will be here in a few days.”
His chin against her face, gently rubbed, the thin stubble and hard stubble pricked her face. She felt a little itchy. “Don’t worry, if you don’t agree, I won’t force you.”
He once again gave her a reassurance, but also let her know that he did not love her at all.
He drove the car into the city, “Are you hungry, what do you want to eat?”
“Everything is fine. I’ll choose the place.”
“OK.”
He responded in a low voice, giving her face a doting squeeze that made her suddenly want to ask him if he did that with all of his women. But after opening her lips, she didn’t ask after all.
She watched as the car passed a snack bar, which she had eaten before. The noodles there were delicious, “Stop the car, here it is.”
Ronan frowned, “No.”
“Then I won’t eat.”
She wanted to eat here.
“It’s not sanitary there.”
“I’m hungry, I want to eat now. If you don’t stop and let me down, I’ll eat myself.”
Never cared that much when she was hungry, anything tasted good.
“All right.”
Seeing her insistence, Ronan finally compromised.
The noodles were served quickly, and she ate while he watched. The bowl of noodles in front of him didn’t move at all.
