My Sleeping Beauty Husband by Lyanna Nichols Chapter 201 Escaped
Hulda was very calm. She didn’t afraid of his questioning, nor did she sneak into his arms coquettishly and hurriedly flattered him.
“Ivan, I went to see my brother today. He said he wanted to see me.”
Ivan asked bluntly, “You left at noon. Why did it take you so long to see him? It’s already 8 pm.”
After Cherry cheated on him, Ivan’s personality became more extreme. He hated when someone lied to him, and he kept Hulda around with an extremely restrictive attitude.
Hulda panicked because she was afraid that Ivan would know about her seeing Alston. Even though he said he would make it up to her, she didn dare to risk irritating him..
“He wanted to ask me for money. He took me to a remote place and tried to rob me.” Hulda said with fear. “Then, someone drove him away. The place was too remote, and I couldn’t get a taxi. So I wasted a lot of time walking.”
As she spoke, she showed her red and swollen ankle, which got injured when Burnell pushed her.
She needed to add truth to her lie so that Ivan would easily believe her.
Sure enough, Ivan waved at her with a better expression. Hulda hid her disgust and leaned against his chest.
Ivan played with her hair. His fingers were cold, and his voice was hoarse. “Hulda, I trust you. But you know, I hate people lying to me the most. I will make you miserable if I find out what you are hiding from me. Do you hear me?”
Hulda’s face turned pale, then she nestled in his arms and murmured obediently.
Ivan was very satisfied with her attitude and decided to show some mercy. “I said I would compensate you, but I don’t think you like the things I gave you very much. Tell me, what do you want?”
“Anything?” After a long while, Hulda looked up at him cautiously.
Ivan raised his eyebrows. “You have something you want?”
Hulda swallowed. “I want to work for Tansy Group!”
Ivan was quite surprised. Who would want to work when they had a lot of money? He knew Hulda was just a gold digger, but she wanted a job instead of money, which was kind of suspicious.
Ivan didn’t speak. His expression was strange and complicated.
Hulda knew he didn’t believe her and began to doubt her again. So she hurriedly said, “Ivan, I admit
I was a gold digger. You let me stay at home and obey you, but I have nothing to do all day, and is nobody I can talk to. I’m very bored and depressed.”
“You are so busy at work and always come home late. Sometimes I can’t see you for days. I want to be by your side all the time. Please let me be your assistant and help you with your work. I studied abroad for many years, so I’m quite capable.”
After speaking, she looked expectantly at Ivan.
Although Ivan didn’t know what she was planning, he was very satisfied with what she said. So the nodded. “Okay. Come with me to the company tomorrow morning.”
Ivan thought there wouldn’t be any trouble in letting Hulda be an assistant.
Hulda felt excited and leaned against Ivan’s chest again, lowering her eyes and hiding her gloomy expression.
After Alston met Hulda and investigated Burnell, he found that Burnell and his men left Fort when Cynthia was kidnapped, so he believed Hulda’s words even more.
That night, he took people to Burnell’s house.
Burnell’s parents opened the door and saw a strange man rushing into their house with some others. They looked at them warily in shock. “You… who are you?”
