Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed novel Chapter 48

Chapter 48 We Get Married
Mr. Satan's lips covered hers, silencing her.

"Emily, this is a vow, not a wish."

She bit her lip. "Just pretend it's a wish."

He sighed deeply, a mix of happiness and resignation. "Emily, you're too kind."

"What do you mean?"

"Luckily it's me you've encountered," Mr. Satan said. "If it were the man we just mentioned, James, who saved your father with money, would you treat him the same way? He's a playboy, and you would get hurt."

Emily pouted. "I'm not stupid. I won't give my heart to every man."

"Hmm," Mr. Satan expressed skepticism. "What if you had actually met him? What would you do then?"

"Well..." Emily paused, pondering for a moment, before replying, "I would definitely repay him. I would work harder to earn money to pay him back."

Mr. Satan booped her nose. "He doesn't need money. You should know what men want from women. He wants you. Emily, let me ask you, if he demanded your body, would you agree?"

Emily shook her head. "I've never thought about that question, and it's not a scenario."

"If, just if."

"If he wanted my body..." Emily quickly shook her head again. "I wouldn't. I can repay him in any other way, but I won't accept using my body as payment."

"Very good answer," Mr. Satan couldn't help but smile. "So, you're willing to be with me, not just because I saved your father with money, right?"

There was a hint of probing in his tone, and Emily could clearly sense it.

However, this kind of probing also made her heart soar.

"Because it's you," Emily said. "I'm lucky, it's you."

"Same here."

A kiss silenced any further words between them.

After the kiss ended, Mr. Satan said, "Has Nathan not submitted the divorce papers to the government yet? Urge him to end this marriage quickly. Once my affairs are settled, we'll get married immediately. I don't want to wait another day."

What else could she say? A thousand words could only be summed up in one word: "Okay."

The next day, the weather was clear, and couples embraced each other on the streets. The sweet atmosphere from yesterday continued, seemingly undiminished today.

Emily woke up early and called Nathan.

The phone connected, and Sophia's voice came through: "Caught in the act, aren't you? Emily, do you regret it? Calling Nathan so early in the morning, do you still deny that you have feelings for him?"

Her good mood early in the morning was ruined by this sharp voice.

In a cold tone, Emily said, "Fine, I admit I have feelings for him. I just want to ask him out to meet. Are you angry?"

Sophia lowered her voice and cursed angrily, "Emily, do you have any shame?"

Ignoring her, Emily continued, "Not only do I want to ask him out, but I also want to go somewhere with him. Are you mad?"
