Chapter 16

Amanda's heart skipped a beat, she once again successfully withdrew her hand, she slightly lowered her eyes to hide her confusion and mumbled:

"The nature of my work is unique so I probably won't be able to wear it often. "

A broken marriage, now when she touches this diamond ring, her heart can't help but feel cold.

Quentin knew she was probably not very satisfied with wearing a ring, but he still smiled and took out the remaining ring and put it on his ring finger.

"Then you can wear it when you're at home."

She didn't expect him to be so easy to talk to. Amanda looked at him in surprise. She moved her lips to say something, but he was one step faster, holding her hand and walking away.

Strange warmth came from the palm of his hand. Amanda hesitated a bit but did not withdraw his hand.

" If I hadn't gone into the wrong room that night, you wouldn't have had to marry me now, adding so much trouble."

At first, she was indeed angry with Quentin, but gradually she no longer was, because she knew that he was the most reluctant person and that she would probably cause disadvantages to him in the future.

Quentin looked at the faint sadness in her eyes, he smiled softly and said:

"It is indeed a bit troublesome."

Because there seemed to be no way in her heart for him to enter, but...

Quentin smiled slowly and gently touched the top of her head. Seeing her eyes open wide to look at him, he smiled even more.

"But it's not that difficult. I'm still easily bored."

Amanda, who was still upset after hearing what he said, opened her eyes wide and took advantage of the moment she was slightly bent over to punch him in the chest.

"Who are you calling easy to seduce?"

Quentin hugged his chest in pain and helplessly looked at her.

"Do you want to murder your husband?"

Amanda thinks she's more mature after having lived two lives, but why is it that every time she talks to Quentin, it's like she'll be teased back to her original form.

"What husband? I don't have a husband!"

Amanda was angry and left first, Quentin quickly followed.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going home, okay?"

Seeing her angry breathing, he knew that she was no longer sad. Quentin was very satisfied and turned her around to go in another direction, kindly reminding her: "

You went in the wrong direction."

"I...! damn it!"

Amanda was both embarrassed and angry and stomped her feet but could not escape Quentin's arm.

Seating her in the car, Quentin stood outside and slightly bent down to look at the girl whose entire face was red because of anger.

He smiled softly and asked:

"Should I change my name?"

Amanda frowned at him but did not refute, she knew that if she was married and kept calling him this or that, it would sound like the relationship was not very pure.

But what should she call him? Husband? she got goosebumps thinking about it, and even calling him by his name was a bit confusing.

"I can't think of it for now."

Amanda decided to put this problem behind her mind, she reached out to push the person blocking the car door out and slammed the door shut.

"I'll go home now, goodbye."

Quentin still stood there, watching the car drive away, lighting a cigarette himself, his smile gradually fading with the smoke.

Secretary James sat in the car and felt sorry for his boss. He was busy day and night trying to find time to register the marriage. After the results were completed, the bride ran away.

Now when I meticulously choose the engagement ring, as soon as I put it on, the bride angrily leaves, sigh, I still shouldn't get married.

"You say it's better to be single like me?"

James rarely confides in the driver, but unexpectedly only receives a snort filled with contempt.

"If you're single, just say it out loud and show it off."

Secretary James breathed steadily, wondering if he could still walk home now?

But he didn't have a chance to walk because Quentin finished smoking and immediately got in the car and ordered the driver to drive back to the villa.

Not far away, there was always a car silently observing them from beginning to end. Javier coldly looked at the empty roadside and took out his cell phone and dialed.

"Mandy, you're moving into the villa with my uncle tomorrow, right?"

Amanda was still in the car, she leaned back on the seat indifferently looking at the scenery passing quickly outside the window and replied:

"That's right."

Javier's voice came from the other end of the line, always warm and gentle.

"There's a project in his hands, help me see which piece of land he wants in the west of the city."

Amanda opened the window and let the cold wind blow her hair and also chill the bottom of her heart.

"I know."

"Then you should rest early, love you."

Amanda hung up the phone, her face was a bit angry when she was no longer around Quentin, she closed her eyes to enjoy the cold night wind.

Javier is like that, his greed is never enough.

He doesn't hesitate to sell his love or power for cheap.

"Quentin, I am giving you a chance."

Gently touching the sparkling diamond ring on her ring finger, Amanda seemed to see the warmth in Quentin's eyes, she knew he truly wanted to marry her.

But if that's the case, don't blame her for being heartless, because initially her purpose in approaching him was to take advantage of him to overthrow Javier and now it's the same.

In another place, as soon as Javier entered the house, he heard a loud argument and the wailing sounds of women.

"You still love that Milena girl, right? Your eyes were only glued to her all night.

Do you still remember that you are my husband?"

Tiffany Harris had long ago lost her arrogant appearance, and now only anger and resentment remained on her face.

Dayln Harris looked at her and was very upset, and was also provoked by her.

"What if I love her? If you hadn't threatened Javier that year, I wouldn't have married a tough woman like you!"

"You...! I'll risk my life with you!"

Tiffany's face was flat when Dayln spoke about it, and suddenly the whole house became a war zone.

With a bang, a glass flower vase flew straight to the two people's feet and broke.

Instantly making them both startled and stunned, they only saw Javier stood there gloomily, indifferently looking at the two people and coldly asking:

"Is that enough?"

After a moment Dayln was startled, he angrily shouted:

"You bastard, how dare you be so rude to your parents!"

 There was another flower vase thrown at him, making Dayln instantly angry but not daring to do anything.

"You two really...! Huh!"

After saying that, he waved his hand and left, leaving Tiffany with tears falling like rain looking at his back.

Javier looked at everything with cold eyes then turned and left.

"Javier, do you want to leave me too?"

Tiffany looked at her son as if looking at a life buoy and asked pleadingly.

Javier's footsteps stopped, his fists that were clenched gradually loosened, he let out a tired breath, and finally turned around to help her back to the room
