Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love - Chapter 1345

Chapter 1345: Chapter 1342: Mr. Lucas, you actually still want to provide for me for ane year?

“Moreover,” Mr. Lucas, I’ve seen through your current situation. We once shared a bed as husband and wife; you can’t hide your abnormalities from me. It’s as if two people reside within your body. Mr. Lucas… you’re hardly in a state to protect yourself, yet you still have time to concern yourself with me?”

“Lily Gray, you–”

“But rest assured, Mr. Lucas, although I am greedy, I am not one to gossip. I won’t speak of your affairs and frankly, I can’t be bothered to. However, Mr. Lucas, you’d best offer me some hush money, which is also the purpose of my visit.”

She finally revealed the purpose of her visit; it was for money, after all.

Aidan Lucas’ cool almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly as he regarded her as if she were a stranger.

Is she not a stranger?

Even after four years apart, even knowing she is a woman who chases benefits and avoids hardships, unwilling to share in both joy and adversity.

Yet what he hadn’t anticipated, even after those four years, was that she would reveal such a vile nature upon their reunion.

However, what’s more laughable,

Even upon seeing her true colors, what he still cared about was not her greed, not the crisis of her having leverage over him,

but that he heard her admit that she planned to seek other men.

It was hateful and pitiful that at such a time, he still damned cared about her, unwilling to let her be touched by other men.

“How much money do you want…” Aidan Lucas’s deep and magnetic voice rose with anger.

Lily’s smile at the corner of her lips brightened, “I knew Mr. Lucas was generous. Not much, fifteen million dollars is enough to throw my current man out.”

Hearing her mention other men, Aidan Lucas’ cold gaze dimmed slightly, “I’ll give you thirty million, leave that man for good, and then stay with me for one year.”

“You…” Lily was slightly taken aback, then let out an unrestrained laugh.

In that laughter was clear mockery, “Ha… ha ha ha… Mr. Lucas, I must be hearing things. You actually want to keep me for one year? Ha, it’s true what they say: better the devil you know. Honestly, if not for my circumstances not allowing it, I would really like to continue serving such a generous and handsome client as Mr. Lucas.”

Lily spoke whilst caressing her belly.

Her abdomen was not yet showing, but Aidan Lucas knew that a new life was growing there.

The action of the woman gently touching her abdomen deeply wounded him.

Aidan Lucas said sternly, “I’ll give you forty five million, terminate this child, and stay with me for one year.”

This time, Lily laughed even more exaggeratedly.

She clutched her chest, laughing so hard that she cried.

“Mr. Lucas, how generous you are with me, could you still have lingering feelings? But what can be done, Mr. Lucas? This child, like the one I bore for you, I accepted money to conceive. Even if my current husband has fallen from grace, I’m paid to carry this task, and it’s something I cannot shirk.”

“Ben Lucas and this child are not the same!” Aidan Lucas harshly interrupted her.

Suddenly, he moved forward, heedless of restraint, and pulled her into his embrace, his right hand gripping Lily’s chin tightly, forcing her to look up into his eyes.

His movements were rough, gone was the past tenderness and indulgence.

His long fingers held her chin so tightly that the pressure would certainly leave behind purple scars.

“Ben Lucas is my son, he is different from those bastards!” Aidan Lucas’s tone was icy as he looked at her with a gaze filled with loathing and warning.

Lily knew full well her words would enrage him, but she spoke them anyway.

“So what if he’s your son? He’s your son, Aidan Lucas, yet he might be happier as an ordinary person’s son. You can hardly protect yourself now, can you care for him, educate him?”
