Bettie murmured.
Sabrina breathed a sigh of relief. Phew! I thought something happened to you. Just get some rest. Ill make dinner.
Okay.
While Sabrina was busy in the kitchen, Bettie came in with a water bottle. She washed it and left. A few minutes later, Bettie returned to the kitchen to get a teacup. A minute later, she came in to look for tea leaves in the cupboard.
I thought you didnt like tea. Sabrina couldnt help asking.
I want to drink it all of a sudden.
Youre acting weird today. Did something happen during your business trip? Sabrina asked tentatively.
Bettie paused, gathering her thoughts before speaking. Lance came to see me while I was on the business trip.
Sabrina was stunned. Hes back? Did he pester you again?
BearNovels
Yes
What an annoying man! What does he want from you when he already has a girlfriend? Does he always bug you?
Bettie blinked. She cleared her throat and tried to change the topic.
He said Keilani is Royces niece, and he only regards Keilani as his sister, the same way he treats Alice. He had shown me the surveillance footage. It was Alice who hugged him, and he pushed her away immediately.
Sabrina gaped at Betties words and circled Bettie a few times, inspecting Betties form from every angle.
What are you doing? Bettie asked curiously.
I just found you became easily fooled by mens words like me.

Bettie was speechless.
Anyway, go on. Sabrina waved her hands.
He said he could work at the Ramirez Group for my sake and help me win over the shareholders. By the time my half-brother joins the company, he wont be able to achieve anything since Lance has practically made the company mine. That way, my father had no choice but to hand over the company to me.
Sabrina took a moment to absorb Betties words, sensing Lance was up to something. Whats his condition?
On condition that I agree to marry him. Only in this way could his assets turn into mine. We can make some agreements first before getting the marriage certificate.
Sabrinas eyebrows arched. Are you tempted to agree?
Bettie walked up to Sabrina and hugged Sabrina from behind. She placed her chin on Sabrinas shoulder, a thoughtful expression on her face. Well, its not bad. What do you think?
Sabrina thought for a while before replying, Your agreement before marriage holds no effects. If it becomes a court case or something equally murky, hell have Royce in his corner every step of the way. Its easy for him to tear up the agreement and string you along.
