Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 636

“Am I to marry you and reduce the person I love to my secret lover? Is he to be the despised scandal?” I scoffed at Tobey in disgust.

“I think that’s a little extreme, Ms. Tanner. Besides, you missed my point entirely. What we’re doing is going to benefit both of us. After we get what we want, we can always get a divorce. You need to learn how to fully utilize all the resources available to you. Being stubborn won’t get you anywhere. Trust me.”

Tobey seemed to be irritated by my words because the smile on his face had vanished. “Do you actually think someone as aggressive as your mother would let you back out of this? You didn’t think she would just let this go, did you?”

In response, I narrowed my eyes at the man before sneering, “Maybe you don’t have a code, but I do. Some things are worth standing your ground for. And that’s my mother you’re talking about. Do you think she’s going to do anything that would hurt her own daughter? If you’re looking for an arranged marriage, I’m afraid that you’ve come to the wrong person, pal. I will never consider an arranged marriage, and I couldn’t care less about inheriting the Goldstein fortune. Do you hear me?”

“A typical woman. You have eyes for nothing but love. How boring, stupid, and unattractive of you.” If nothing else, the way Tobey acted as if he knew it all made me sick.

“What use is a man who couldn’t protect the one he loves? You treated her like she was your mistress. That, to me, is a useless man.”

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind me. After turning to see Christopher with Dylan in hand, I skipped over excitedly to the two. “Why are you here?”

“We just happened to be having our Thanksgiving dinner here too.” Christopher gave me a warm smile before pulling up a chair next to Tobey. He then raised a brow at the man and asked provokingly, “So, Mr. Osborn, any comments? Do you think I have a point?”
