"Not even with thirty million on offer?" Quintus was shocked because he believed that not a single woman in the world would say no to money. Those who turned their noses up at it generally did so because the amount was too low.
After giving it some thought, he finally said, "I really like you, Miss Diane, and I want you very much. How does forty-five million sound then?"
"I told you to leave!" Diane's expression was as cold as before and she warned him, "Get out now, or else I'll call my bodyguards!"
Quintus frowned when he heard that and an idea soon popped up in his mind. Since being nice to her was not working, perhaps he could try to be a little harsher to her and put her between a rock and a hard place. A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth and he no longer spoke politely to her anymore. Instead, he began threatening her. "Haha, do you know what kind of family the Novaks are? We're a second-tier upper-class family from Riverson, and I'm the son to the head of the family! After a pause, Quintus continued, "Take the offer while it benefits you. Don't wait until you have to suffer. Be a good little girl and listen to me. Take the money and keep me company just this once. If you won't, then don't blame me if my family decides to go against your family or suppress your businesses!"
Upon hearing that, Diane's complexion soured instantly, and she never expected him to be so shameless. To make things worse, she did not know who he was or when she became his target.
Diane's silence left Quintus feeling ecstatic since he believed that Diane was hesitating and that he had a chance!
"Think carefully now. This is forty-five million we're talking about! I promise you'll get that money in exchange for only a few hours of your time, and I can assure you that I'll use protection so you don't get pregnant. What do you think?" Quintus took another step forward to try and tempt Diane. The thought of being able to cuckold Severin made him extremely excited, especially since Diane had such a stunning figure.
He also added, "Don't worry. As long as you sleep with me, I can always cooperate with your company in the future on various projects. That'll allow your family to prosper even more. Sound good?"
"No!" Diane smiled coldly again. "I'll give you one last chance to get out of my office. I don't want to cooperate with you, and I couldn't care less about the money you're offering. I trust that my husband is rich enough and strong enough to protect me and give the Shanahans a good future!" At that point, Diane turned the tables and threatened him instead, "Besides, my husband is good friends with Mister Valerian. No matter how powerful the Novaks are, I don't think you'd be so bold as to offend a war chief."
