True Love Waits

Chapter 1254 The Plan Against Gifford

Matthew knew that Erica was bold, but he hadn't expected her to be this audacious. She had the guts to scheme against Gifford! His tone was firm as he said, "No." Then he turned and continued to walk toward the hotel room door.

"Hey, didn't you agree to do me a favor? Why are you breaking your promise?" Erica huffed as she stubbornly stood in his way.

Matthew couldn't believe her persistence. Had she not considered all the risks? He frowned as he replied, "Do you know how much Chantel will suffer if anything goes wrong?" "What if Gifford doesn't like Chantel?'

"Oh! Don't worry. Chantel agreed when I spoke with her." Erica wouldn't do such a terrible thing without Chantel's approval. However, since Chantel had consented, Erica thought she was just a matchmaker. Matthew was speechless. At this moment, he realized that the two women had discussed the plot against Gifford in the bathroom!

As he had hesitated, Erica decided to take advantage of the situation and continue coaxing him. She pouted and gazed at him with sorrowful eyes, like a spoiled child, and said, "Honey, after this, I will be obedient. I will give you a baby as soon as possible. No, five! Five cute babies! Since we're wealthy enough, we can afford so many children!"

She hoped that all the children would be boys so that she could teach them how to take Matthew's property from him. Then, the man would be homeless and would learn about society's cruelty!

Matthew was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He had grown to be arrogant and aloof as he hadn't experienced society's unkindness.

Although Erica had not experienced adversities, she wasn't cold and impassive around people.

Matthew scoffed. She had lured him with the same promise so many times that he was no longer inclined to believe her.

The last time she had asked him to make a baby with her, he had exhausted himself trying. But, she had fled from their home. She tricked the bodyguard, snuck out of the house, climbed the wall, and escaped in the dead of the night!

What worried him now was the thought that Erica might behave similarly when pregnant. As this wasn't the first time she had evaded the guards at the villa, he had to consider and prepare for a repeat incident. Perhaps he needed more people to follow her from now on.

"Honey, decide quickly. My brother is leaving tomorrow! And if you don't help me, I'll tell your father that you hit me and kicked me out of the house in the middle of the night." Erica was so anxious that she started threatening him to get what she wanted.
