Chapter 60 No Future Together

Elyse pressed her palm against her forehead and didn't know what to say. Anyone with common sense could tell that Mabel had wanted to sleep with Theo from the start. Elyse was even willing to bet that the < broken wine bottles were also part of Mabel's plan.

"Think about it carefully," Theo said, "am I not the victim in all of this?"

"Lanny wants you to marry Mabel."

"Can you honestly say that she is worthy to become my wife?" Theo asked calmly before taking a

sip of his coffee. "This is clearly a scam. Did you think I would simply agree to their demands and

call it a day? If the other party was you, I might have considered the marriage."

"Is there a recourse for this predicament?" Elyse asked dryly, completely ignoring his last sentence.

"Mabel said that her virginity was worth millions. If they want to discuss marriage with me, tell your family that they should pay me back first."

The corners of Elyse's mouth twitched. It was obvious that Theo had never intended to marry Mabel and he even wanted to get his money back. Sure enough, he was the most cunning of all the parties concerned.

Not that Elyse would ever acknowledge it out loud. She sighed and nodded. Her work was done,

she just needed to relay Theo's response to Lanny.

How Lanny would take the news was no longer her business.

Elyse stood and made to leave, but Theo was quick to stop her.
