Semua Bab Three Years of Lies: The Fake Wife’s Mega Comeback : Bab 191 - Bab 200

Rhett’s eyes flickered with something unintelligible. "Forgive my bluntness, Ms. Diaz, but I cannot help you with this," he remarked in a cold, collected tone. “First of all, your disturbance here is disrespectful and demonstrates a total lack of consideration for the patients who want tranquility. Secondly, visiting rights necessitate documentation of immediate family status. Regardless of quantity, Mr. Diaz and anyone accompanying him are seen as unauthorized since they are unable to establish a legal relationship with Sir Kane,” "As for the relationship you claim..." Rhett’s gaze was like a blade, its edge sharpened on the here and now, leaving no space for escape. "Ms. Diaz, you were still married and only worked as a secretary at Kane Group at the time. You were never married to Sir Kane, and he never acknowledged your position in public. There is no legal or logical social relationship between Mr. Diaz and Sir Kane. Some lines cannot be crossed by mere numbers or loud demands

After blinking, Lydia laughed icily. "Really? Will you tell me, Haley, that you might still be standing here in this city if Kieran hadn't given you that million?” She cast a disdainful glance about. "The monthly rent and expenses for this unit must be at least $50,000. Do you believe your pay will be sufficient to support that? Kieran is overly compassionate. He offered you million dollars after just four years of dating." Lydia moved closer, raising her voice in outrage. "You'd better accept my offer, or I could sue to get that money back as marital property—mine and Kieran’s!" As Haley was about to reply, she heard a familiar voice behind Lydia say, "Lyd, there you are..." Kieran was the one. His gaze unintentionally locked with Haley’s, causing him to pause mid-sentence. For a moment, his expression froze, and he looked away out of instinct. With a voice full of resentment, Lydia laced her arm through Kieran’s right away. "Excellent timing, ki. Haley is uninterested in my at

The frigid tension persisted despite the fondue's steam swirling between them. Rhett’s aura had fallen, and his brow was knitted firmly. He pressed the service bell on the table, ignoring Kitty’s remark. "Please move us to Table 02," he gently said as the waiter raced over. “This place is terribly little.” Kitty’s face wavered. "Changing tables is such a pain, Ri. Are you really that reluctant to eat with your own mother?” "Not at all. Our dining experience is being negatively impacted.” Rhett spoke in a chilly tone. He looked across at Eleanor. “Would you mind moving, Miss D’Souza? Haley is being crowded by you. She feels uneasy.” Eleanor’s grin stopped. "Rhett, you..." Instantly, Kitty’s rage erupted. "How could you talk to El like that, Ri? El has been incredibly helpful to you at work and has taken time out of her hectic schedule to spend time with me since I moved to this city. How could you—" Rhett abruptly interrupted her. "Personal is personal, business is business. I

"A kiss?" Rhett : "...With the taste of hot pot still on our lips?" Haley’s eyes gleamed. "A minty French kiss," she said, taking two mints out of her pocket after sneaking out of the restaurant, peeling them, and putting one in each of their lips. “What do you think?” Haley was totally engulfed by a shadow before she could finish speaking. Leaning in, Rhett kissed her. "Deal." Haley was unprepared. "Mmph..." Gradually, his kiss became more intense, exploring, lingering, and alternating between soft and passionate. He was really "obedient"; it was a proper French kiss, and his technique was flawless. A tingling sensation ran throughout Haley as her heart fluttered. Wasn't it too daring to kiss in public, at a lounge of all places? She tried to fight instinctively, but his skillful kiss quickly overcame all of her objections. After all, it was a public area. After a minute or so, Rhett released her after giving her a passionate but restrained kiss. Haley wrapped her arms a

Rhett stood over her, his eyes blazing. "If Archie really does have a kid, he's going to brag about it nonstop..." Haley nibbled on her lip. "...Do you want one too?" Rhett’s eyes were clearly filled with longing. "To be honest? Indeed. But if you don't, then we won't," he said hastily. “You always take precedence. Children come second.” Haley’s heart was filled with warmth. "Then tonight... don't be careful," she murmured impulsively as she wrapped her arms around his neck. “We'll simply see what transpires.” "Ley..." "Rie..." Rhett’s voice became even more raspy. Haley started to lose consciousness. Her wrist was adorned with two tiny chains that swayed and entwined together, shimmering slightly as though they were merging into one. She was still a little confused when she woke up the following morning, and her whole body hurt. Rhett had insisted on making up for his absence for the whole week last night. Haley had the impression that her bones had been disassembled and
