Dauntless God Of War

Chapter 294

The smug expression she had on earlier was now replaced by one of resentment.

“I'm sorry.”

Harold stopped in his tracks, for he had long seen through her little scheme. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Considering that Wrenna's cheeks weren't even red the last time she downed a bottle of vodka, he knew it was impossible for her to become drunk over a glass of wine.

Moreover, her heart was beating furiously.

Even though he understood her desire, he didn't wish to take advantage of it, as he couldn't give her the future she deserved.

After apologizing, Harold closed the door and left Wrenna's house.

Wrenna walked to her balcony to watch him leave. Despite the dejection she felt, her eyes glistened with admiration.

No one else but him can maintain such composure when being seduced by a gorgeous beauty like me. Obviously, the eunuchs of old who have been castrated are likely capable of the same.

As for whether Harold was a eunuch, she had had the pleasure of finding out the last time. Back then, her private parts had hurt until the very next day.

No doubt he's truly a man.

“Mr. Campbell, I don't need recognition and I don't care about how many women you have. I'm willing to be yours for the rest of my life. One day, I'll definitely change your mind!” Wrenna murmured to herself as she watched Harold's car gradually pull away.

After that, she returned to her bed where she fell soundly asleep.

The next day, Harold arrived at City Hall at nine in the morning.

Isabella was already there waiting for him.

“I'm sorry to have kept you waiting,” Harold said embarrassingly.

“It's fine. The staff has just arrived anyway. Let's head inside,” Isabella replied in an emotionless tone.

Harold wondered if she did that on purpose because her attitude toward him was entirely different. At that very moment, she treated him as if he was a complete stranger.

Faced with such treatment, Harold felt a sudden squeeze in his heart. He recognized that his recent efforts had all gone to waste.

Nevertheless, he had no plans to give up.

“Bella, wait. What happened between Marilyn and me was a setup. I was a victim too!”

Harold quickly grabbed Isabella in a desperate attempt to salvage the situation.

As if she had expected Harold's pleas, Isabella replied without any hesitation, “I know, but our marriage was only a contracted marriage. Our divorce has nothing to do with that incident.”

With that, she walked straight into City Hall, while Harold—left without a choice—followed her from behind.

A few minutes after Harold and Isabella entered City Hall, Brittany was dragged to its entrance by her mother.

“Mom, stop pulling me. I told you I don't want to marry that man, let alone one who's a live-in son-in- law.”

“Shut up. Don't forget how old you are. At the rate you're going, you'll end up becoming an old virgin. Also, you're well aware of how your brother is. Now that someone is willing to become a live-in son-in- law, both of you can take care of him after getting married. So, what else is there to consider?” Mandy lectured her daughter angrily when faced with the latter's reluctance.

Ever since they ran into Isabella and Harold at Fortune Real Estate, the Xenoses had begun looking for a partner for Brittany.
