My Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 3

"Antonia's engagement party?"

Basil raised his eyebrows.

As soon as Lola said what she needed to say, he understood her completely.

Antonia was her sister, so she was required to go.

However, with all the news circulating on the internet, people would continually mock her throughout the night.

The smartest choice would be to take him with her.

Basil's lips curved slightly.

This woman was interesting.

"Yes,"

Lola said, nodding her head. "I'll sign it if you go with me."

There was a round of silence as Basil stared deep into her eyes.

Finally, he said the word that she had been waiting to hear!

"Deal."

Without another thought,

Lola picked up the pen and signed her name on the contract.

From now on, she was the wife of the most mysterious man in the A Country.

"My assistant will bring you shopping. I'll pick you up later,"

he said coldly.

He quickly made a phone call to his assistant and asked her to pick Lola up in his estate. Obviously, she needed to look presentable at the engagement party.

"Okay." Lola nodded.

Seeing her obedient face and plump lips, Basil's gaze clouded over.

Suddenly, he stretched out his arm and wrapped it around her waist, pulling her in.

"Ah!" Lola made a sound of surprise as she found herself against his chest.

'What the hell?' she thought.

Before she could utter another word, he pressed his lips against hers.

At first, Lola struggled under his grasp before she calmed down. She wrapped her arms against his neck as she opened her mouth,

allowing his tongue to dart in.

Besides, at this point, there was no going back. It wasn't as if they were going to stay innocent for the next two years.

At last, Basil finally pulled away, allowing her to gasp for air. She stumbled backwards, placing a hand on her chest.

He smirked, letting his fingers glide against her wet lips.

"I got to get some down payment, right?"

The corners of his lips lifted. He leaned over to whisper in her ear. "Don't worry. I'll start collecting my interest tonight."

Lola's face flushed at the implication of his words.

She pushed him away and glared at him.

The rascal!

Shortly after the episode, Cynthia Yin, his assistant, finally arrived at the villa.

When Lola came out of the front gates, Cynthia Yin respectfully led her into the car. From what she could tell, the car was very limited edition. In fact, only a few men in the world could afford such an exquisite ride.

Lola licked her lips. Without another word, they drove to the mall.

Half an hour later, they were already at the store, looking for clothes. From the peaceful environment to the intricate design on the walls, Lola could tell that this wasn't just any other store. In fact, if it was just her, she probably might not even look at this place. She couldn't help but scan the price tags attached onto the clothes.

Her eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

That...

that shirt probably cost half her life!

"Mrs. Lola, which one do you like?"

Cynthia Yin took her to another shop that contained luxurious outfits with a smile plastered onto her face.

"I..."

Lola blinked. "You mean...I can choose whatever I like?"

Cynthia Yin was stunned at her question before slowly nodding her head.

"Of course. If you don't like it, then we can go to another shop," she offered.
