Filed To Story: Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband Book (Cora & Byron)
“I’m not a favorable woman. I have nothing that can attract you and deserves your like.”
Somehow,
Cora looked annoyed. She thought it was because she couldn’t accept Lucas’ change of his purpose for a while or other reasons.
“Don’t think so badly of yourself, okay? You are intelligent and beautiful. Quite a few people went to see you at the gate of your school before.”
Lucas wanted to tell Cora that she was excellent. She shouldn’t have denied everything about herself because of her recent experience.
But Cora caught the point in his words.
“Did you know me before?”
“Of course. When I was in college, I heard that the belle of the Department of Medicine in your school.
It was said that you were more beautiful than a fairy. At that time, I was curious about what kind of woman would be so beautiful. So I skipped classes for a week and went to see you at the gate of your school…”
Recalling the days before, Lucas smiled unconsciously.
“Have you seen me?”
Cora was also curious about it.
“Yeah. But you were arrogant. You didn’t even glance at me.”
Cora was surprised.
“Really?”
“Of course. You had a man by your side at that time,”
Lucas said jokingly.
Even to this day, he still clearly remembered that afternoon when he saw Cora. The sun was shining brightly that day. She wore a red dress. There was a charming smile on her face. Under the sunlight, she looked like a delicate rose. The moment he saw her, his heart beat fast. It made him feel the first love in his life.
After that, even though there were many women of different types around Lucas, he couldn’t feel the throbbing from the depths of his soul when he saw Cora.
He couldn’t find that kind of feeling of meeting Cora.
Until that day, Lucas went to the bar with Hayden and Sally and saw Cora. He felt his world brighten up at that moment.
To get Cora’s WhatsApp contact information, he even mentioned his dead father and made an excuse.
Knowing that Cora would have a blind date, he gave gifts and money to the intermediary and finally got the chance to meet Cora through the blind date.
Cora paused for a moment, only to realize that the
“man”
in Lucas’ words was Eason.
“I was still too young at that time. How could I fall in love with a bastard? I was so stupid.”
Cora didn’t want to complain about Eason. But when she thought that Mia was pregnant with his child, and he was still thinking about herself, she felt disgusted.
“You have no relationship with him now. Are you willing to give me a chance?”
Cora turned her head and saw Lucas looking at her seriously.
There was an unusual heat in his eyes.
Looking at his eyes, Cora suddenly seemed to see her reflection in Byron’s eyes.
She was also like Lucas. She used to long for Byron’s approval and love.
“I…
I’m ordinary, not as good as you think. And you probably guessed it. I had been with Eason’s uncle…”
Lucas was eager for her response. She didn’t want to lie to him. Unexpectedly, Lucas said,
“That’s all happened before. It’s not easy for you to live alone after a family accident. Don’t deny your excellence because of this.”
Then, he looked at Cora.
“Give me a chance, and give yourself a chance. Let me be with you, and you don’t need to belittle yourself…”
Cora opened her mouth, wanting to say something.
But Lucas feared getting an answer he didn’t want from her. Before she could speak, he said,
“You don’t need to give me the answer now. I will give you time to think about it. Go home and have a good rest tonight. We can talk about it another day.”
“But Jane’s sapphire bracelet should be priceless. The Yoris family…”
Cora regretted being too impulsive at that time. Otherwise, she would not have fallen into the passive situation.
“It is just a sapphire bracelet. I can afford it. My salary is quite high. In addition, I also invested in
Moonware Games. I didn’t spend my deposit. Now, I finally have the chance to spend it.”
Lucas didn’t say that to comfort Cora. His family background was good. Although it was not comparable to the Hansen family, his living standards were the best since he was a child.
“I’ll write an IOU to you and repay the money in the future.”
After all, it was the consequence of her impulsiveness. She couldn’t let Lucas pay for the result.
“We’ll talk about it later. It’s late. Go to bed early. Good night.”
It wasn’t money that Lucas wanted to get from Cora, so he quickly changed the subject.
“Okay. Let’s talk about it tomorrow.”
Cora got out of the car and went upstairs.
Lucas started the car and left until the lights on Cora’s floor turned on.
After Cora returned home, her mind was still a mess because of that accident tonight and Lucas’
sudden expression of love.
She wanted to take a shower to clear the irritability and mess in her mind.
Unexpectedly, before entering the bathroom, her mobile phone rang.
Cora thought it was a message from Lucas, but when she checked it, she found it was a message reminding. She received a transfer of one million dollars.
She checked the transferer’s information and was sure that it was Byron.
After the last hug during the day, Cora thought they had no bond.
But this transfer still made her heart skip a beat.
She took a screenshot, sent it to Byron, and edited a message: [What do you mean, Mr. Hansen?]
Byron seemed to be using his mobile phone. He replied to her quickly: [The money for the bracelet.]
[I have nothing to do with you. Mr. Hansen, there is no need for you to give me the money for the bracelet. Who knows if I need to use my body to repay it?]
[I won’t ask you to do anything. Don’t let others pay for your affairs.]
Cora repeatedly read the message sent by Byron and understood that the word
“others”
referred to
Lucas.
[He is my fianc?. He has the right to help me.]
Cora decided to end her relationship with Byron, so she didn’t want to have any contact with him, not even in terms of money.
It would only make her unable to forget him, and she would always be stuck in that abyss and could never extricate herself.
Byron noticed something different in her repulsion. He sent her a message quickly: [Is it because you can’t forget me that you refused my help?]
[I’m going to be his bride. I’ve forgotten you.]
Cora obstinately retorted Byron in the message. But only she knew she was embarrassed, as if her thoughts had been seen through.
The fallacy that Sally told her before still came to her mind.
“The best way to forget the last one is to start a new relationship.”
Cora didn’t know whether she wanted to cover up her embarrassment after being seen through or because of her impulsion. She opened the dialog box with Lucas and sent him a message.
[I promise.]
After that, Cora returned the one million dollars that Byron had transferred to her.
She sent the screenshot of the transfer record to Byron. Then, she also sent him a message: [It has been a while since we broke up. So it is disrespectful to my boyfriend if I keep in touch with you. We’d better blacklist each other.]
After sending this message, Cora took the lead in blacklisting Byron.
Then, she felt her sudden agreement with Lucas was a bit extreme. So she wanted to recall the message.
It was less than two minutes since she sent the message, so she could still recall it.
Unexpectedly, her finger trembled, and she deleted the message.
When Cora came to her senses, Lucas had already read the message. She saw the word
“Typing”
on the dialog box.
Then, she received many messages.
[That’s great!]
[From now on, you are my girlfriend! Hello, Cora! I’m your boyfriend, Lucas.]
[Shall I meet you tomorrow morning? What would you like for breakfast?]
[I’ll deliver lunch to you at noon tomorrow. We can have a big meal in the evening.]
[When you are free, we will treat Sally and Hayden. I wouldn’t have met you if it weren’t for them.]
Lucas kept sending messages.
