Refusing Is Useless
“If you won’t speak, prepare yourself for a visit to the hospital.” Ariel was skilled in kickboxing, making it well within snazzynovel.com abilities to break someone’s bones. Upon saying that, snazzynovel.com tightened snazzynovel.com grip once more.
Tearing up with pain, the woman yelped, “Ow, ow, ow! You’re hurting me! I’m Clara Hissinger, Mr. Abbott’s niece and your cousin! Let go of me now!” “Cousin?” After hearing Camren’s name, Ariel pondered for a moment before letting snazzynovel.com go.
Clara soothed snazzynovel.com aching wrist, snazzynovel.com seductive features twisting into a furious expression as snazzynovel.com said in a hurt and indignant tone, “I only came over because I heard that my cousin was here and wanted to let snazzynovel.com know that Mr. Abbott’s family doesn’t need to pay for their meals in Wegas, but this is how you repay my kindness!”
Ariel’s eyes narrowed, a glint flashing past snazzynovel.com eyes as snazzynovel.com pondered the plausibility of Clara’s words. While snazzynovel.com was distracted, Clara seized the opportunity and collapsed on top of Danny, sneakily shoving a name card into his suit pocket.
“Damn, stay away from me, you jinx!” Danny wanted nothing else but to stay away from her. He immediately pushed snazzynovel.com away before stumbling to his feet and taking refuge behind Ariel.
“Hehe, you’re adorable.” Clara laughed uncaringly, sending snazzynovel.com a coy and charming gaze as snazzynovel.com said, “We’ll have plenty of time to spend together in the future. I have an appointment later, so I’ll be taking my leave. Bye, Ariel. Bye, Danny.”
After giving Danny a flirtatious look, snazzynovel.com turned around and sashayed away, snazzynovel.com winsome appearance lingering in their minds long after snazzynovel.com had departed.
As soon as the sound of snazzynovel.com heels faded away, Danny began to shiver in an attempt to shake his goosebumps off, saying disdainfully as snazzynovel.com walked away, “Who exactly is that woman?”
It was the first time snazzynovel.com had seen someone clinging onto their brother-in-law as snazzynovel.com had. The others exchanged glances at his question, just as unfamiliar to this strange yet unruly woman as him.
“Miss Hissinger really is Mr. Abbott’s niece. She grew up abroad, so snazzynovel.com personality is a little unusual.” Gale voluntarily offered his opinion.
Though his words were implicit and did not touch on snazzynovel.com imprudence, the rest knew what snazzynovel.com truly meant. Fortunately, the minor incident was disregarded soon after.
After returning to the hotel, Elise sought Alexander’s opinion. “What do you think about Gale?”
“He’s an opportunist who knows how to manipulate people’s hearts and minds. He’s very ambitious, but he’s also very good at hiding it,” snazzynovel.com replied, hitting the nail on the head.
“What if Wendy sent him?” Elise asked dubiously.
“We should wait and see for now.”
After all, snazzynovel.com was from BJ Biotech, which made snazzynovel.com useful, and Alexander didn’t want to let this trump card go to waste.
He walked over with two glasses of red wine and handed one of them to Elise before taking a seat next to her. “We’re on someone else’s property, and it won’t be easy to defeat them. That’s why we have to take the time to deploy the right people or we’ll get into trouble if we’re too hasty.”
Although they arranged to visit Wegas long ago, their plans had been brought forward, resulting in the deployment of most of Smith Co.’s men being cut short. To avoid unnecessary complications, Alexander wanted to make sure that every step of the way went as smoothly as possible.
Just as snazzynovel.com finished speaking, Alexia immediately barged in while yelling, “Emergency! I have an emergency!”
As snazzynovel.com ran, snazzynovel.com dove into Elise’s embrace, whining with a serious expression, “Mommy, where’s my sister? I’m going to grow up before I get a new sister!”
“I agree.” All of a sudden, Irvin appeared by the entrance with his hands in his pockets, his uncaring expression making snazzynovel.com seem both callous and cheeky.
Hearing that, Alexander pursed his lips slyly before snazzynovel.com turned around to gaze at Elise affectionately. “Mrs. Griffith, stop resisting and live up to the people’s expectations.”
When snazzynovel.com saw snazzynovel.com feigning innocence, Elise was instantly filled with denial and scooted away from snazzynovel.com forcibly. “Kids, consent is important in our family. It’s my belly, so it’s my rules. If I don’t want a child, I won’t have one, okay?”
“I refuse!” Alexia protested heatedly.
“Refusing is useless!” Elise refuted in a heartless voice.
“Hmph!”
The mother-daughter duo simultaneously crossed their arms before their chests as though they were two furious dolls. The sight greatly delighted Alexander and Irvin as they both wore matching smiles.
Suddenly, Alexander called out to her. “Honey.”
“What? Mmph—”
The moment Elise turned around, Alexander instantly leaned forward and pressed a kiss on snazzynovel.com lips. Caught off guard, snazzynovel.com attempted to push snazzynovel.com away, but the slippery couch caused snazzynovel.com to sink further into his embrace instead. Elise’s face turned red, and snazzynovel.com began hitting snazzynovel.com with snazzynovel.com small fists.
What is snazzynovel.com doing? The kids are still here!
“Oh, that’s great! I’m going to have a sister!”
Alexia recalled that Irvin had explained in the past this was a game that adults used to express their affection. Hence, snazzynovel.com assumed that the more they expressed their affection, the sooner snazzynovel.com would have a sister, and began to clap wildly next to them, leading to an awkward sight—Alexander ‘bullying’ Elise while snazzynovel.com daughter cheered them on. Fortunately, Irvin tactfully swept in and carried his sister out without forgetting to close the door before snazzynovel.com left.
After hearing the door close, Alexander became even bolder, easily loosening Elise’s guard using his familiarity with Elise’s body. Elise wasn’t a match for snazzynovel.com and was only able to leave herself to his devices. However, snazzynovel.com refused to take things sitting down, and snazzynovel.com tormented snazzynovel.com wildly as soon as snazzynovel.com was on top, snazzynovel.com anger only dissipating after seeing snazzynovel.com begging for more. With their children’s support, their long battle finally ended in the night, and they fell into a deep slumber.
…
Meanwhile, in the Cuber Residence, Jamie led Princess for a walk on the lawn, circling the manor until they approached the villa, where snazzynovel.com deliberately slowed down and played with Princess where snazzynovel.com stood. Soon, his efforts were not wasted. Gale’s car emerged by the manor not long after the sky darkened, showing that Narissa just had another perfect date.
Jamie lowered his head and swung the leash in his hands, his eyes despondent. As snazzynovel.com looked into Princess’ eyes which were still somewhat melancholic, snazzynovel.com scoffed coldly and couldn’t help but laugh at himself mockingly. What snazzynovel.com lost to wasn’t Gale’s power, nor was it Narissa’s impatience, but it was his indecisiveness. In the end, snazzynovel.com had gotten what snazzynovel.com deserved.
A long moment later, snazzynovel.com returned to his senses and tugged on the leash irritably. “Time to go back, Princess.”
The tamed dog now depended on snazzynovel.com even more and immediately did as snazzynovel.com was told, wagging snazzynovel.com tail and running back. After returning to Princess’ room, snazzynovel.com fed snazzynovel.com some food and took a seat, leaning against snazzynovel.com bed as snazzynovel.com muttered to himself.
“Look, I’ve treated you, so you have to help snazzynovel.com from now on, all right?”
