It made Susie silent.
Does Jiang’s family need money? Of course no, their wealth could sustain for generations, and they were in the best of their days. Word had it that the jade bracelet on Mrs. Jiang’s wrist worth at least tens of millions.
Therefore, whatever present she may give, Leo would not be interested at all.
She started regretting having made such a deal with Leo, it could’ve been nothing more than an embarrassment which she wouldn’t care at all. And Leo didn’t seem like someone she could easily get rid of.
“Hello? I’m still here, and your answer?” Sharp questions came down onto Susie one after another, Leo was either scheming or just too curious and hurried.
Susie stayed calm: “Then what is your suggestion?”
“Oh, so I can have whatever I ask for?”
“If it’s within my capability.” Not wanting to waste any more time with Leo, Susie answered quickly.
“Well…I think I need, um, a wife.”
Susie nearly fell off the chair, worrying about what Leo would say next.
“You know, I’m already twenty-seven, all alone, no romantic tidbits, which made those paparazzies gossiping me of being a gay, well that was some damage on my reputation. Therefore, I need a wife to drive away all those rumors, and she can’t just be ANY woman. You’re from the Hua’s, and you sure know that our families have been in close relationship for a really long time, why don’t we just turn this pro forma wedding into a legit one? What say you?”
