Baby Alliance: Helping Daddy Get A Rich Mommy novel Chapter 157

“Fine, it looks like you don’t know when to give up,” Pierre said, still stroking Selena’s hair. “Tell it to him yourself then.” Thus, Selena let out a tiny sigh, unsure of how to begin.

As he stared at the both of them, Finneas could feel that something was wrong. “Do you think it’s right of you to force a lady like that, Mr. Fowler? Don’t be afraid, Selena. Although he’s rich and influential, I’m not someone to be trifled with either. I’ll protect you.”

The pounding in Selena’s head grew stronger. Back then, she used to think that Finneas was a smart man, but why was he so foolish now?

“I’ll say it if you won’t,” Pierre said, unhappy that she didn’t utter a word. “She’s my woman now.”

He used the words ‘my woman’ instead of ‘girlfriend’ because he felt that he could overwhelm him with a stronger word.

“That’s because you coerced her into it!” Finneas cried out, jumping from his seat. “That’s enough, Pierre Fowler. Selena is merely a meek woman, she—”

“I wasn’t forced into anything. I did everything willingly.” Selena finally spoke up, unable to stand watching Finneas further making a fool out of himself. “I said things like I couldn’t forget you and such to him on the island before this because I wanted to make him angry and leave me. He was about to get married after all, so I didn’t want to cling on to a married man. However, he didn’t get married and we’re together now.”

Stunned for a long while, Finneas uttered, “No, Selena. You’re forced into this. That must be the case, isn’t it? Tell me and I can help you! You don’t love him; he’s the one who’s forcing you to be with him!”

It was difficult for him to accept such a truth because he had already filed for divorce with Megan. In order to get rid of her, he even proposed to give her two properties in addition to another compensation in the divorce settlement. Furthermore, he even told his family that he would marry Selena, and their family business would emerge stronger after pulling through the crisis.

However, it turned out that Selena was already dating Pierre!
