Chapter 18

Clayton liked seeing her angry. With her fluffy hair, she looked like a lion cub, so beautifull

Isabella’s big eyes blinked, and tears rolled down her cheeks before she burst into tears.

Clayton panicked, clumsily tried to wipe her tears, and comforted her gently, “Don’t cry, Isabella. Don’t cry,”

Isabella struggled desperately and still bawled.

“Okay, I’ll give you the money. Here it is. Don’t cry. I’ll give it to you.” Clayton was at a loss, not knowing what to do.

Suddenly, her crying stopped. Isabella’s eyes were teary and so clear that he could see his reflection. “Really? You’ll give me my money back?” Her face was still streaked with tear stains.

Clayton glanced outside from the corner of his eyes and nodded. “Follow me to sign something, and I can give you 150 thousand dollars

first,” he said.

Isabella bit her lips and thought, ‘150 thousand dollars. I don’t blame him for getting mad at me after finding out I used him to make money, but I absolutely can’t give him the 300 thousand dollars. Fine, I’ll take the 150 thousand dollars. At least I’ll get half of it back first.”

Isabella sniffled and wiped her tears with the back of her hand, “Sign what?” Clayton already got out of the car, standing by her door and opening it for her.

Clayton put his arm around her waist and guided her inside the building while his other hand smoothed and combed her messy hair. “Your name.” Then he helped her stand, looked at her, and nodded in satisfaction.

“Sign the marriage application, and I’ll give you 150 thousand dollars when we get back to the car,” Clayton whispered alluringly with his hands on her shoulder.

Johnny, following them, couldn’t bear to watch it and turned his head to the other side. It looked as if Clayton was a bad guy trying to lure a child by saying “Follow me, and I’ll buy you some candies“.

He silently thanked his lucky stars, ‘Today is truly an eye–opener. Next time I see Mr. Benny Murray, I’ll definitely tell him about this. He’ll surely be happy and maybe even gift me the Pearl Royale Chess Set. I’m so lucky to be the one tasked with them.”

Isabella bit her nails as she pondered, ‘I earned 300 thousand dollars by selling Clayton out once. He and Nathan won’t let me go easily if I’m caught again. Marrying Clayton is part of my original plan anyway. It’ll facilitate me leaving home. Okay, I’ll marry him! Besides, I can get 150 thousand dollars back. As for the remaining 151.5 thousand dollars, I’ll get them back slowly. A watched pot never boils. Since I’m at fault first, I should concede.
