His Only Antidote by Shirley Owen

Chapter 7

Seeing that she even brought the project plan with her, Elvis couldn’t help but feel curious about the woman. He wondered what the hell she had in her mind.

Her plan was so detailed, with proper examples, and even the pros and cons were listed clearly. She treated her marriage as a business. Was she at the end of her rope or had other purposes? Elvis never thought such a thing would happen to him.

“As a businessman, you should be clear that you will lose nothing on this deal. I won’t take a penny from you. All I need is your fame. I can raise myself, and the only thing I want to exchange with you is that…

“Send your mother abroad for treatment?”

“Yep! That’s my only request. I promise I won’t pester you. When your grandmother demises, or when you find your true love, I will disappear from your life without any compensation. I think I will be qualified Mrs. Grayson, and I won’t let you down.”

“You are confident about yourself.”

Nola gave out a sweet smile. “I’m capable of dealing with all kinds of people. Whether you want a clingy and innocent girl, a decisive and experienced clerk, a sexy and hot escort, a virtuous and considerate wife, or a scheming and intelligent woman. I can appear in any persona you want during our collaboration. Mr. Grayson, it’s a safe bet for you!”

Her self–description really aroused Elvis‘ interest in her. Elvis had never met such a special woman before.

She really did a good job marketing herself.

Nola wasn’t as confident as she looked. Seeing that Elvis gave no response, she added, “You will never encounter a woman like me in your life if you miss the chance. You should know that seizing the chance is crucial for a businessman.”

“The fortuneteller said that my widower’s peak would bring bad luck for my wife. Aren’t you afraid of it?”

Nola waved her hand and said in a relaxed tone, “You know what? An old man once said that I’m tough enough to resist all kinds of bad luck. How about we test who is stronger?”

Elvis acknowledged what she said that he would never meet such a woman like her again.

A dead silence covered the room again. Nola was a bit hopeless. She had risked her everything to say this. Why couldn’t the man show her some kindness?
