Chapter 218: Chapter 218: This Man is Toxic!
Abigail’s first reaction was, “Talk about what?”
Thinking of the regret in Ruby Green’s eyes just now, she feared she would regret it for the rest of her life for not nodding at the start. She thus missed the chance to marry Brandon Piers.
But Abigail had already figured out that this man never intended to marry from the beginning.
He did it on purpose.
The so-called regret, and even grievance, were all things he acted out for Ruby.
No matter whether Ruby understood reality or not, Brandon’s words would become a thorn in her heart. As long as she recalled it, she’d regret it deeply.
This made Abigail wary when she heard Brandon wanted to talk to her.
She deeply felt that this man was toxic.
Both sarcastic and sly.
“Hmm?” Seeing Abigail remain silent, Brandon raised his eyebrow and hummed lightly.
“It’s getting late. I need to go back and take care of Teddy. We can talk when you’re free,” Abigail said, intending to leave.
Brandon didn’t move or stop her. He just quietly watched Abigail.
This silent pressure was even more oppressive than if the man had spoken. Abigail sighed lightly and turned to look at Brandon. “Alright, what do you want to talk about?”
“Talk about what you are after?” Brandon’s lips carried a faint smile but gave Abigail a very dangerous feeling.
Abigail knew this issue wouldn’t go away. She smiled awkwardly at Brandon, “The recording is real.”
“So you’re only after my money?” Brandon was very displeased. Was his person not worth her pursuit?
“Not just that,” Abigail answered honestly.
A hint of pleasure flashed in Brandon’s deep eyes, “What else are you after?”
“Your chubby baby,” Abigail answered straightforwardly, and then couldn’t help but ask, “If you really don’t want to marry me, give me custody of Teddy. I promise not to bother you.”
Abigail knew it was unlikely for the Piers to give up custody of Teddy, but she still wanted to give it a try.
After all, how could she know it was impossible without trying? Maybe this man was blinded by lard and wouldn’t want Teddy to avoid marrying her?
Brandon, “…” Damn fatty!
“Anything else?” Brandon took a deep breath. Although he couldn’t possibly woman, it didn’t mean this woman couldn’t like him.
In terms of male charm, Brandon believed he couldn’t lose.
“What else?” Abigail was confused.
“You’re dreaming. Teddy will never leave the Piers.” Not to mention he wouldn’t agree, even if Brandon agreed, Grandpa wouldn’t.
Abigail had already anticipated this result and was not surprised. “Alright then, I’ll have to trouble you to marry me.”
Brandon was unwilling, “Don’t you have anything else to say? Ruby Green was after a lot. Haven’t you learned?”
Abigail suddenly thought of what this man said when Ruby was still around. Learn from her, after my money and my person.
Could it be that Brandon wanted to test her?
Abigail looked at Brandon warily, “Rest assured, I know my place. There is nothing possible between us. Even if we get married, it’s for Teddy. I won’t have any inappropriate thoughts about you.”
Brandon was annoyed, “Why can’t you?”
“Because I don’t want to be thrown out,” Abigail answered very straightforwardly.
Brandon’s narrow eyes glared at Abigail with dissatisfaction, “Who’s going to throw you out? Don’t you see your weight? Are you trying to trouble Pullan too much?”
Abigail, “…” This man would die if he didn’t attack people personally!
“For Pullan’s sake, I can’t go after you.” Abigail answered with a fake smile, even using a formal address. After saying that, she turned around, opened the door, and left.
Brandon’s gaze fell on Abigail’s back, and he suddenly ground his teeth. This rotten thing!
