Chapter 254 This Is Totally a Wedding Gift

To put his mind at ease completely, she decided to strike where it hurt.

“I don’t have any inappropriate feelings for you either. I like normal men. You don’t have that ability, so I definitely won’t be clinging to you!”

James frowned; his temples nearly exploded. Not capabler What the heck was she talking about?

But then he remembered–he had told her that nonsense once, just to avoid unnecessary trouble.

For a pair of contract spouses without love and destined for divorce, this kind of misunderstanding worked just fine. He certainly had no intention of clearing it up.

He responded coolly, then thought it over and decided to offer her some form of compensation. Even though what had happened tonight wasn’t intentional, she was still a woman, and she’d suffered quite a bit. He couldn’t shamelessly pretend nothing had happened.

“Lily, after we finalize the divorce, I’ll give you a million as compensation. Of course, what I said before still stands–the villa, and a few sets of jewelry, all of it is still yours. I also own several buildings. After the divorce, I’ll transfer the one in the city center to you.”

A million? A building? An entire building! Not a condo, not a unit, but a whole damn building! Wasn’t that way too much? Lily’s eyes widened in shock.

Sure, he had acted a little wild just now–but to be honest, she hadn’t really lost anything.

With a body and face like his, trying to hire a male model like that at a club–even if she threw money around–would be nearly impossible. And truthfully, it hadn’t all been on him.

She had lost control and responded to him too.

And that self–loathing in his eyes just now–it hadn’t been fake.

It was obvious their physical contact had truly disgusted him.

That moment of skin against skin must’ve felt like torture for him.
