"Listen, I'll buy a new one for you if you lose it. No worries." He tried to reassure her. And if she still refused, he would threaten her!
"No, I'll just wear it at parties. This is really special and I can't wear it every day." She decided not to wear it because she felt the pressure of wearing such expensive pendant. She didn't want people to always look at her.
Harry rolled his eyes and stepped forward to her, "Lola, if you don't wear it, I will..." He kissed her ear seductively...
Lola was taken aback. "All right, I will wear it! I give in!" Such a cunning man!
"OK, come on, I will reward you with something." He pulled her back to his side, so she had to step backward again.
When she hit herself on the table accidentally, he grasped her quickly and held her tightly.
"I... If you do anything, I will be angry!" She pretended to scare him.
"He is so shameless!" She thought.
She thought of that what happened last night. It was completely understandable as they both really missed each other. But she would be angry if he did it again tonight. Maybe it was too much already.
"My wife, I miss you very much during the two months I was in the US." He kissed her forehead. She felt the tenderness of his lips.
"Oh, I know! You don't have to tell me." She said indifferently. Indeed, she also missed him over those lonely nights when he was in the US.
"You said that you would like to talk with Chuck. I am jealous!" He expressed his thoughts directly, and kissed her cheeks.
She pushed him away and wiped her face, "You just talk and please don't kiss me. All right?"
"Well, so how do you want to compensate me?" He asked. He thought that it was just appropriate because she was his wife. She talked and laughed with another man in front of him. It was kind of him that he didn't kill Chuck because of it.
Lola thought for a while, "Look, I am not a good woman. I had an arranged marriage with Thomas Herren before, and now Chuck is pursuing me. What about letting me go?" Lola didn't even know why she had the patience to discuss this with him.
"No! Indeed, I had an arranged marriage with Yolanda, and then I had something with Cherry. You didn't mind too, right? So, just come into my arms, and I'll give you happiness. This is the wisest choice for you!" He grinned, and felt it interesting to bargain with her.
Lola argued, "I certainly mind that! I always wanted to punish that Yolanda! Cherry has married and I am not angry with her anymore!"
He replied with a broad smile, "My love, I know. You are also jealous, right?" He certainly knew that she still loved him!
Lola didn't know what to say. It seemed that she was fooled by Harry.
"No, you bad man! You leave me alone!" She tried to push him away but it was no use. He was really persistent.
He had something more to tell her, "I haven't punished Yolanda because I want you to deal with her. I'll support you whatever you want to do!" He hoped Lola would be cruel and unrelenting to Yolanda.
Hearing his words, Lola was a little scared, "I have always hated her. But I haven't found a chance to trick her." She said honestly but she had never thought of killing her.
She just wanted to beat her and lock her in the dark room.
But it seemed that Harry was the one who hated Yolanda so much. "Have you investigated the case that happened a few years ago?" She asked in obvious caution.
Harry nodded and gently stroked her hair. "Sorry, I made you feel bad." He looked at her, feeling so guilty that he accused her of something she didn't do.
It choked her up. She looked at him, with tears streaming down her face. She knew that he had believed in her completely now.
"So you know you have wronged me before?" She cried suddenly. Harry chose to believe her at last. But she was not sure if it was too late now...
