Madly Yours (Nora Reed) novel Chapter 764

No wonder everyone said Americans were sly!

He was just like his mother!

He couldn't count how many times she had tricked him growing up, yet he never learned his lesson. He fell for it every single time, and every time was different.

He had carefully guarded his secret, only for this man to rip it apart with just a few words.

Seeing his expression, Hudson suddenly chuckled, stood up, and casually buttoned his cuffs.

"It doesn't matter if you won't talk," he said nonchalantly. "I'll have a superior TBM chip developed soon enough anyway. You just sit back and watch."

He paused, taking a couple of steps toward the door before looking back at Vincent. A cryptic smile played on his lips.

"By the way, what I said earlier about Hunter? That was a lie..."

Hudson's smirk widened. "He has no idea who you really are."

"..."

Vincent's eyes widened in sheer horror.

He gulped audibly.

He had always thought he was clever, playing the harmless, innocent fool while secretly pulling the strings.

But now he realized that his little tricks were child's play compared to the monster standing before him.

Hudson Lancaster...

This man was utterly terrifying.

The door clicked shut behind Hudson, his footsteps fading down the hallway.

Vincent sat alone on the sofa, staring at the closed door for a long time before letting out a massive breath.

This guy was too manipulative...

He wanted to go home!

...

Hunter sat glued to the computer for hours.

Vincent pushed the door open once.

He had made up his mind to find an excuse to return to France. He had it all planned out.

He would claim he was homesick.

He missed French cheese...

It didn't matter how pathetic the excuse was, as long as it got him out of this nightmare.

He didn't even dare look Hudson in the eye anymore. Every second felt like he was being dissected.

"Hunter," Vincent cleared his throat, shuffling closer. "I need to talk to you about something..."
