Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 202

Isabella suppressed her rage, her fair and pretty face was covered with sullenness. She walked out of the bathroom and went straight to the Executive Office.

She didn't even knock on the door as she barged in.

The man in the office seemed to be shocked by her. But when he saw it was her, his expression returned to its normal calm. He put down his pen and smiled faintly. "You're here."

Isabella stood at the door for two seconds, staring at him as she slowly walked in, her eyes filled with dense ridicule. She coldly laughed, "Mr. Simons, there's no need for you to continue pretending."

The man's gaze dimmed. He looked at Isabella's delicate and indifferent face, but his smile didn't change. "You think I'm pretending in front of you?"

Isabella's red lips formed a mocking arc, "If you keep pretending for a long time, will you still be able to differentiate between the fake and real yourself?"

Shawn's handsome face revealed a calm and indifferent smile, "I thought you would understand that this is just about the way how we live. I have my way, and you also have your own way. It's like how you are just a Manager in Benton, but also the first Judge's daughter, the ex-wife of Polygon's president, and now you're also pregnant … I'm just fighting for my interests. Aren't you, as well?"

"…" Isabella choked.

He did agree with that sentence. If he didn't do something shameful, he wouldn't be afraid of knocking on the door. This man had grabbed all of her weaknesses to stop her.

However, this did not mean that the anger in Isabella's heart had disappeared. Her expression became even colder, and her tone became calmer, "So, the reason you went to Brighton back then was just because of me? During that party, you intentionally talked to me and said that you wanna cooperation?"

Shawn's black Eye Colour flashed a few times but he did not say a word.

He had been doing business for so many years. He had seen all sorts of people and heard all kinds of unpleasant things.

The only difference between him and Christian, was that everything he obtained today, he had walked his path, while Christian had merely inherited his father's legacy, which had turned the tables once. Thus, even though he treated that man as his opponent, he still looked down upon him from the bottom of his heart.

"You're born to be a merchant." Isabella looked at him, the sneer on her face grew deeper.

"If this makes you comfortable, just think that way." Shawn's expression was unperturbed.

"No, you even use a woman, so you probably can't even be considered a merchant. I don't believe that you would do such a despicable thing." Isabella was so angry that she laughed instead. She then sized him up, and suddenly denied herself, "That's not true, as you even used your wife. So it's reasonable that you wouldn't care about any other women and even tried to use them."

Shawn looked at her, then turned his gaze away. He slowly walked to the window, both hands in pockets, and stare at the various buildings in the distance. The ambition in his eyes was no longer hidden, "Do you know which is the tallest building in London?"

Isabella stood behind him and raised her eyes to look at the gigantic window. Shawn's slender figure was dressed neatly, and his temperament was noble yet calm, but what she saw on him was completely different from on Christian. Shawn has an extreme desire, to power, money, and everything in the world.

She smiled slowly, then said, "So what if it's this building? Can you have it your whole life? Also, what you pursue is not what everyone desires for, and I won't sacrifice myself for your success."

"You can share it with me if you want." Shawn suddenly turned around and looked at her deeply.
