Semua Bab Seducing Mr Thompson : Bab 11 - Bab 20

"Okay, we really need to be extra careful here," John said as he looked inside from the window, but there was no one. He tried opening the door, but it was locked."Do you know where Mr Thompson's room is?" John asked."No, I don't. I've never been here, aside from when I was called for that dumb interview." Astrid said."Look, you'd have to be as quiet as possible," he said as he opened the door and pulled Astrid inside.Astrid was amazed with the interior designs. The house looked glass-like and was really big. Her house wasn't compared to this. She was amazed, but you know she couldn't expect less from a billionaire.They were spotted by the family maid, Lydia, but John simply placed his finger on his lips, and she nodded because she understood what was going on.He snuck her until he got to the door to Andrew's room, but it was locked too. He quickly pulled out his keys, unlocked the door, and pushed Astrid inside, then locked the door.Just then, Mrs. Thompson appeared. "John, wh

Astrid checked into her room and met Andrew already there. 'What are you doing here?' she asked with a smile.'I came to see what you spent the money on,' Andrew said. 'I bought clothes and I will be resuming in three days' time,' Astrid said with a smile as she placed down the bags.'Work?' Andrew asked.'Yes. Oh, I forgot to tell you. I received an email last night from Seth Corporation,' Astrid said.'That's good. Get ready tonight. I will pick you up by nine,' Andrew said.'Where are we going?' Astrid asked.'Some reason, our partners chose the bar,' Andrew replied.'What are you doing here? What are you doing there? I want to sign a contract and finalize our agreement,' Andrew said.'Uh, I've been wondering... where is Claudia?' Astrid asked out of concern.'She is alive,' Andrew replied.'I mean, where is she?' Astrid asked again.'I don't know,' Andrew said as he walked away.Astrid spent the rest of her day happily withdrawing and spending Andrew's money.Astrid was done dre

Astrid pushed him away. "I can't do this," she said. "Marriage is a serious thing, it's a long-term affair. And if I'm getting married, it needs to be with someone I have genuine feelings for. I don't want to get divorced after a year and become a single mom. I can't.""What exactly is your plan?" Andrew asked. "There's a fifty percent chance that you will survive the abortion, and a fifty percent chance that you might die. Are you willing to risk it? Are you willing to put your life on the line just because of Mira?" Andrew asked making Astrid rethink her decision.Astrid rethought her moves. "I need to think about it," she said, getting into the car.Andrew got in and drove away. The ride was extremely quiet. Astrid couldn't hold back her tears as she thought about everything."What have I done to my life?" she thought. She likes the idea of being a mother, but the idea of being a single parent doesn't really work for her case. She has no one to lean on, no one to rely on. She's alo

He put the test results back and decided to drive away and he'd return it back to her tomorrow. Astrid stood by the window and watched Andrew as he drove away,so we weren't an item,it was just a tag. She was never important to him,he never thought of her as something serious he only said it in order to excuse himself,she's happy that at least he defined their relationship today so she'll know where she stands and today she knows who she is to me and to her he's now nothing but a business partner who keeps giving her bad luck in all their deals. He'll remain that way even when they get their marriage certificates and she must make sure that she collects all her payment not leaving a dime of hers with him, because of him she'd lose her newly found job- she can't work when she's pregnant. But the bright side is the fact that once their contract expires she'd have enough money to start her life as she thought about this she remembered what she said in the car. .Deep down she doesn't w

"Astrid Walton, get out of here now!" Mrs. Thompson commanded.Astrid smiled mischievously. "I'm no longer Astrid Walton. It's Mrs. Astrid Thompson now, since I've taken his last name." She locked her arm in Andrew's, and they walked away together.Mrs. Thompson was stunned, feeling embarrassed and humiliated. She had never felt such intense hatred towards anyone before. How could Andrew marry Astrid, someone from a lower social class and status?Mira, who was watching from afar, seethed with anger. She wanted to lash out at Astrid but restrained herself, knowing Andrew would see her as a monster. She couldn't bear the thought of Astrid being Mrs. Thompson."Astrid Thompson" didn't sound right to Mira; "Mrs. Mira Thompson" was far more appealing.Meanwhile, Astrid released Andrew's arm once they were inside and headed for the shower to change out of her jogging clothes."How was my acting?" Astrid asked, smiling.Andrew replied coldly, "You weren't acting. Everything you said was true
