Maisie was stunned. “When did that happen?”
Louis replied without any hesitation, “I was there during your high school party that year.”
It had been so long that Maisie had forgotten about it. She looked at Louis intently. Honestly, she was kind of surprised that he was able to find out about Ryleigh getting kicked out of the club when she was in university.
‘Just how deep did he look into this?’
As if she remembered something, she smiled at Louis and said, “I can tell you, but you have to answer my question first in exchange.”
With the smile etching on her face, she continued,” Why do you want to marry Ryleigh?”
#The supermodel Xyla has returned from overseas#
Ryleigh was sitting with her legs crossed on the couch while eating a bowl of fruit salad. When she was scrolling through her Facebook newsfeed, she saw the news, and her eyes were fixed on the screen for a long time.
‘Xyla has returned? Since his ex-girlfriend is coming back, does this mean that we don’t need to continue our marriage anymore?’
she thought as she picked up
a piece of watermelon with a fork.
Russell came downstairs in a hurry and shouted,” Ryleigh, you brat!”
Her hand trembled, and the watermelon in front of her dropped to the floor. Before she had time to mourn for the loss, she saw her father was pacing in the living room.
Whenever her father started pacing, she knew he was looking for something to beat her.
She hastily put the bowl of fruit on the table and jumped up. “What are you doing, Dad?”
“You… You still have the nerve to ask me that!?” Russell growled as he rolled his sleeve up, his face livid with rage. “Where is that antique pocket watch that I keep in the study room?”
“What antique pocket watch?”
“Do you have any idea how much that pocket watch costs? $90,000!” Russell shouted.
Ryleigh’s brain went blank for a moment, and it was only then she remembered which antique her father was talking about.
“I’ve been keeping it for 20 years. I didn’t even dare to touch it. When I was packing my stuff today…” He was fuming with rage as he said, “My $90,000 is gone!”
Ryleigh swallowed hard and forced an embarrassed smile on her face. “Oh, so that pocket watch is an antique. I didn’t know about that…”
‘Oh gosh. I’m in big trouble this time, Ryleigh thought.
She had sold the pocket watch nine years ago to help Maisie. After all, her father had a lot of collections. He rarely took them out, so she did not expect him to go look for the pocket watch after so many years.
Russell let out two dry smiles. He walked up to her and said, “If I had known that you would grow up into such a prodigal daughter, I would have…”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
He raised the broom in his hand high in the air.
Ryleigh was so startled that she jumped down from the couch and dashed toward the door without even wearing her slippers.
She opened the door and saw Louis was standing in front of the door.
Holding the broom, Russell chased after her. “Stop running, you brat.”
However, when he saw Louis, he quickly put the broom down and smiled at him, “Huh? Louis? What brought you here today?”
Ryleigh felt wronged after seeing her father’s attitude change when facing Louis. “Dad, if you can be so gentle to me, I’m willing to give up 10 years of my life.”
Sneering, Russell replied, “If you stop giving me so much trouble, I’m willing to give up 20 years of my life!”
Louis chuckled and said, “I hope I am not bothering
you, Mr. Hill.”
Russell put the broom down and waved his hand. “Of course, you’re not. We’re going to become a family soon, and you’re always welcome to pay me a visit.”
As he was talking, he put his hand on Louis’ shoulder.” Come, don’t just stand here. Come in and have a seat. I just bought some nice tea. Since I’m free today, let’s enjoy some tea and play chess together.”
Louis smiled and entered the house with Russell.
Ryleigh stamped her feet in frustration outside of the door.
‘How could he do this to me? I’m his daughter!
