Chapter 1265

Chapter 1265 Her Rich Husband

Hearing the mention of Phoebe's name stoked Erica's anger into open flame. Her tone rose, growing haughty and commanding. "Matthew Huo, remember, both you and the title of Mrs. Huo are mine! As long as I don't give up, Phoebe will never have either."

As for Matthew's heart, though...she didn't know if it was possible to ensure it belonged to her. She could only make sure that his body and the title would be hers. She was confident of that because of Carlos and Debbie.

His heart or feelings would never be hers to control.

A new smile crept onto Matthew's face, more genuine than the last one. His tone softened as he said, "From now on, as long as you are obedient and don't leave me, I will give you more of what you want." But if she didn't listen to him and kept trying to escape, that would be another story.

"What do you think I want? Tell me," Erica said warily. Whatever her husband had in mind, she would see if she was interested in it.

Matthew retrieved a black card from a drawer and placed it on the desk before her. He handled it as carefully as if it was a loaded gun. "Here is twelve billion. If you don't run away and get pregnant with my child in three months, the money will be yours."

It was a diamond-level bank card owned by ZL Group. In fact, the account was already in the name of Erica Li.

However, Matthew would not tell her the truth, not unless he won her heart completely first.

It was always possible that he would lose both his wife and his fortune in the end. These days, it seemed to be growing harder and harder to ignore.

"What?!" As usual, Erica was too excited to know what to say. Waiting for her voice to come back to her was difficult.

She thought, 'Twelve billion! I have never seen so much money!

Please, can someone pinch me? I need to know if I'm dreaming now!'
