My Lord, My Billionaire Master novel Chapter 400

Her white hands gripped her chopsticks tightly. She did not put them down nor did she sit down.

"From the moment we met, didn't you just shout about wanting to be free? From today on, you are truly free." William said while sitting there, he sat up straight and crossed his legs, his long hands resting on his legs, "From today onwards, unless you are willing to, no one can force you to do anything."

Alice stood there and lowered her eyes to look at William's face. Her lips moved, wanting to say something, but no matter what, she was unable to.

There was only silence.

Her hand hung at her side, her thumb caressing a small blister on the tip of her index finger that had just been scalded by a pot. It felt numb and painful to the touch.

"Still not leaving? What, do you think I don't know how to speak? " William raised his eyes and looked at her, his eyes still clouded with red, with a few blood traces. With a low voice, he said, "The engagement ceremony is already set, have you seen it yet?"

Hearing this, Alice's nose turned sour, and she nodded with some difficulty, "I saw it."

"This is the guarantee of your freedom!" William spoken word by word from the thin lip, and every word came out loud, "In Cullen family, there has never been anyone who overturned the engagement ceremony, so of course they haven't been married and divorced either."

This was the rule of Cullen family.

He had previously rushed to publicize Alice's existence after just one kiss, to prevent everyone from throwing out the idea of marriage at him.

But in the end, he still walked to the point of marriage to fulfill his responsibilities as the successor of Cullen family.

Alice's eyes were extremely sore.

It was for her again.

He had sworn an oath for her, and now he was holding an engagement ceremony for her, all for her sake.

"So, you don't need to worry about me coming and bothering you again. I know your bottom line, you won't be a mistress, you won't be a lover." William stared at the dishes on the table and said, his voice became softer and softer.

Alice slowly put down the chopsticks in her hand, not knowing what to say.

"Alice, actually, we haven't been together for long. It's only a few months, and the separation will be a bit longer." William continued, "In such a short period of time, I was the one who took the initiative to maintain our relationship."

"Therefore, once I let go of this relationship of ours, it would be the true end between us." William said, "Now, it's over."

The real end.

He was lying when he said he was going to break up; he didn't want to be together when she said she wasn't; now it was the real end.

Alice tried her best to control her emotions, but after hearing these words, she could no longer suppress herself, the pain in her eyes was unbearable, she suddenly wanted to leave this place and cry bitterly.

She stood at the edge of the dining table and looked at William's eyes, "William, you don't have to worry about me anymore, you can do even more things that you want to do with peace of mind."

Her existence and York's past, would only bring him endless worries.

She had already given him so much time to waste, and now was no time to waste.

"What I want to do, I don't even know what I want to do. Do you know?" William sat at the dining table and slowly raised his head to look at her. His eyes were extremely red.

"I just want you to be safe and sound."

Alice looked at him and said as she pressed her thumbnail into the bubble that was on the tip of her index finger.

"I am not as great as you are. Even if you are happier and more suitable than Patrick, I still hope that I can be an eternal thorn in your side. Don't forget, you can't fall in love for two years." William said while staring at her. His voice was cold and sharp, but his eyes were red.

Alice nodded without any objections, "I know, I will carry out the contract."

She nodded so quickly that following him around made him seem unreasonable.

After the betrothal, Mona will live in the Imperial Castle and in the same room as me. The relationship between the two great families will be even closer, and in the future, I will bring her to attend various events, broadcasts, and accept all kinds of interviews."

William said as he stared at her, observing her expression.

His every word was like a sharp blade slashing across her body, slicing across her bones. He told her that after the engagement ceremony, Mona would have everything she had before, including him.

Alice lowered her eyes as her eyelashes were brought along by a touch of water.

"Don't you have anything to say?"

William stared at her and asked.

Alice shook her head.

William lowered his eyes, the corner of his mouth forming a mocking arc, "Since you have nothing to say to me, then go."

"Then, what about lunch?"

"I'm not sharing it with you." William said coldly.

Hearing that, Alice slowly retreated, turned around and walked out. With every step, her vision became more and more blurry.

When she walked to the entrance of the dining hall, William's voice sounded from behind her, "My engagement ceremony, do you want to send you an invitation?"

Alice stood there stiffly and shook her head.

Silence reigned behind him.

Alice raised her face to look at him, blinked her eyes, and then turned to look at William, "Actually, I still have something I want to say to you, last sentence."
