Finding Love in the Boss’s Embrace After Divorce

Chapter 971 Taking the Gun for Him

Alivia stared at him with widened eyes, raising her hands to protect herself in front of her. Her face turned a mixture of blue and red. She thought Bert had misunderstood or that he already held such a low opinion of her. His words made her feel like she had been slapped across the face, leaving a burning sensation.

She calmed down and said in a serious tone, "You misunderstood, Mr. Harper. I didn't mean that."

Bert looked her up and down and asked sarcastically, "What else can you repay me for except for this body, huh?"

Alivia really wanted to refute it, but at this moment, she couldn't find any words.

"Consider the 400,000 dollars as your payment for accompanying me that night. If you show up in front of me again, don't blame me for being impolite." With those words, Bert didn't even spare her a glance as he walked straight out of the private room.

Alivia did not expect that her behavior today would provoke him. She vaguely felt that it must have something to do with the woman who had just left. He might like that woman, so he expressed his thoughts to help her.
