Love's New Bloom by Simone Hastings

Chapter 91 A Billion Dollars

As Erin met his gaze, her heartbeat suddenly intensified. She could even hear a thump in her ears.

Taking a deep breath, she gathered her courage and said, “Chandler, I’ve wrongly accused you previously! I’m sorry!”

After apologizing, she hung her head in remorse.

Chandler snorted coldly without saying a word, but a hint of pleasure flashed across his eyes.

Emboldened, Erin slowly approached him and stopped five paces away.

With unwavering sincerity in her eyes, she said, “Thank you for tonight!”

She inclined her head to show her sincerity and clasped her hands together in a motion of gratefulness.

Chandler suddenly said coldly, “Alright, I’m not dead yet! You don’t have to act like that with me.”

Hearing his impatient tone, Erin was somewhat amused. He seemed displeased with her acting coy after getting away from the situation!

Chandler leaned back against the chair behind him and uttered in a chilling voice, “Instead of those useless words, why don’t you do something practical? That would show your sincerity.”

Upon hearing his request, Erin naturally felt delighted. Owing someone a favor could be burdensome, so she asked, “Go ahead, I’ll listen. As long as I can do it, anything is possible…”

A playful glint appeared in Chandler’s eyes, and his exquisitely handsome face caused Erin’s heart to race inexplicably. She even found it somewhat intimidating to meet his gaze.

Recalling their encounter from the previous night, she felt a mixture of embarrassment, resentment, and lingering apprehension. Yet, an overwhelming sense of gratitude engulfed her at the same time.

In moments like these, she couldn’t help but feel immensely grateful for Chandler’s help.

Suddenly, she realized that the favor he had granted was beyond measure, and she was unsure how to repay it.

Her mind was filled with conflicting emotions, and she was so absorbed in her thoughts that she didn’t notice Chandler had approached her.

It wasn’t until her lowered gaze caught sight of a pair of men’s indoor slippers that she snapped to reality.

As Erin raised her gaze, she found herself caught in the firm grip of his slender fingers on her chin. Chandler leaned down, his voice dripping with cold arrogance as he gazed at her and said, “Since you want to express your gratitude, why not do it with money? Give me a billion dollars!”
