The Wife He Forgot to Marry (Winona and Yule) novel Chapter 681

Yulen treating Giselle as a friend and giving her gifts obviously came with ulterior motives. They clicked, both physically and in conversation, and she was an easygoing woman who didn't cling. Being with her was effortless.

Another key reason was that she could help him with the HSV-121 project.

Now, she was telling him she couldn't do it, that she couldn't help him anymore. Didn't that mean all his trust and the money he'd poured into the project had gone down the drain?

Giselle noticed his attitude cooling and belatedly caught on.

So his previous kindness wasn't just about sleeping with her; he was banking on her professional help.

This man really was selfish, exploiting every woman around him to the absolute limit.

Thank god she wasn't like Winona Jowett, selflessly sacrificing her youth for him.

Nor was she Tallulah Shipley, foolishly ruining her own body just to keep popping out babies for him.

She was just playing around with him anyway, so his attitude didn't bother her.

Besides, her net worth was about to skyrocket; she'd have even less reason to give him the time of day.

Mimicking his sudden change in demeanor, she said coldly, "Yulen, I treated you as a friend, which is why I showed up for dinner today. But looking at you now, it seems you're not in the mood to eat with me. I'll take my leave. There are plenty of other people who'd kill to have dinner with me."

With that, she grabbed her bag and walked out of the restaurant without a second thought.

Yulen hadn't expected her to disregard his pride so completely. His expression instantly darkened.

He walked out of the restaurant and got into his car.

His driver asked for the destination.

Remembering Winona and Stefan Goddard's public announcement, Yulen had no desire to return to the neighborhood where Winona lived.

After a moment of silence, he told the driver to head back to the Locke Villa.

Tallulah was thrilled to see him return.
