After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back by Riverflow

Chapter 1072

Jolie clenched the hem of her dress, her gaze fixed on the man before her.

In the dim lighting, his sharp, handsome features seemed even more intimidating. He had an air of absolute control, effortlessly seeing through her every thought. Even with no expression on his face, it felt like he was silently mocking her for overestimating herself. Taking a deep breath, she asked, "Will one time be enough?"

Gavin's eyes were calm and unreadable as he replied evenly, "If it hadn't been for me that night, you would've been utterly humiliated in the Cooper estate. The Quin family's reputation would've been ruined."

Jolie's composure shattered. She frowned and glared at him, her tone laced with annoyance. "So, Mr. Cooper, are you just taking advantage of the situation?"

Still calm, Gavin said, "You're the one who offered to repay me."

That one sentence rendered her speechless.

With a sigh of defeat, she slumped onto the sofa, refusing to look at him. "Fine. Just tell me what will it take to settle this?"

"Ten times."

The man beside her uttered the words without a hint of hesitation.

Jolie snapped her head toward him, her expression one of utter disbelief.

"You..."

She opened her mouth, but no words came out. Her pale face flushed pink, a mix of anger and embarrassment.
