Are You Willing?

Eric stood up, coldly staring at Nicholas. He suddenly realized that this was turning into a troublesome situation.

 

He was glad that Samantha hadn't died, and he was willing to repay her with money.

 

Though it seemed crass and even hurtful, Eric couldn't divorce his wife just for a woman like Samantha—that would be a joke of the highest order.

 

"Mr. Nicholas, Samantha, I truly appreciate what happened all those years ago. I know that if it weren't for Samantha, I would have long since left this world. But… I can't marry you just to repay a debt of gratitude and abandon my wife and children. I'm sorry. If it weren't for this, if you weren't forcing me to be with you, I would do anything else for your Richardson Group."
