Dominant Boss: Call Me Hubby, My Dear novel Chapter 55

"I agree to it, so what right do you have to go back on your word?!" Edward questioned.

Jeanne pursed her lips.

Seven years ago.

Seven years ago...

Jeanne looked at Edward. "1 told you that I did it on a whim. Now that I've calmed down, I don't want to think about it anymore."

"Is sex such a child's play?" Edward asked her.

"If not?" Jeanne smiled, seemingly unconcerned. "Otherwise, in such a modern era, did you think that adults have sex to make a pledge to be married?"

Edward's face was dark.

Jeanne pursed her lips.

She did not want to provoke him.

Jeanne had pretended not to know him and that the night seven years ago did not happen. What else did Edward want?!

She felt that what she wanted to express at this moment had been clearly expressed.

Jeanne slowly squatted down and left under Fourth Master Swan's arm.

She had just taken a few steps when...

"So, I was supposed to sleep with you for free seven years ago?" Suddenly, Fourth Master Swan's voice came from behind her.

Jeanne gritted her teeth.

In any case, they had slept with each other. Why was it that he was not letting the matter go?

She turned around and asked, "Are you asking me to pay you then?"

Edward looked at her.

"If you're too expensive, can I do it in installments?" Jeanne raised her eyebrow.

She looked at the man in front of her with a provocative look. The man suddenly smiled.

Edward asked, "Since you're so sincere, Ms. Lawrence, how about we discuss a deal?"

Jeanne frowned.

She had a feeling that Fourth Master Swan was up to no good.

"Since you know very well why I kissed you at Eden's wedding yesterday, you also know that I was indeed rejecting the Sanders' third princess. I've never liked to get involved with women. If you can make the third princess of the Sanders stop thinking about me, then everything that happened between us will be written off."

'Damn it, this insidious man!'

Jeanne was a nobody, and yet Edward was asking her to go against the Sanders' princess.

Was he not pushing her to the brink of death?

"What do you think?" Edward asked.

"I only slept with you once. Is there a need for you to do this?" Jeanne suppressed her anger.

"You can still choose to date me." Edward was straightforward.

'Damn it. If I date him, it'll mean that he's giving up on Melody! In the end, I'll be an eyesore to Melody,' Jeanne thought.

The man was cunning.

"You can think about it. Give me an answer tomorrow.

It's not too late." Edward appeared to be very generous.

"Is there no other choice?"

"No." Edward's words were concise.

"Okay." Jeanne agreed immediately. "I'll help you make Melody stop thinking about you. After that, there'll be nothing between us anymore!"

"Deal."

Jeanne did not say anything more and turned around to leave.

She returned to the living room and at that moment, the others had left the table.

Nox saw that Jeanne had returned and said jokingly, "You're back already? Fourth Master Swan is too fast."

Jeanne glanced at Nox and walked directly to Ruby, who was preparing some fruits after dinner in the kitchen. "Auntie, I'll go back first."

"You're leaving so soon? Didn't you just come?" Ruby was reluctant for her to leave.

"I have something to do." "Did Fourth Master Swan embarrass you just now?" Ruby asked in a low voice, "He gave me a shock too. Fourth Master Swan came to our house a few times when you were abroad, and it was also because of Monica and Finn. As rumored, he has always been cold and silent. Today, he suddenly confessed to you at the dinner table.

I was surprised."

"Auntie, don't think too much. He has a motive."
