Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 484

Carter coaxed her patiently. "Leen, I know that you're still not willing to go to the capital and don't want to meet the Gale family members. I also don't want to force you. I want to give you enough time to prepare yourself psychologically. However, do you want to live apart from me?"

Helen bit her lips. "Carter, you're forcing me."

"If you want to come back to North City, I can accompany you back here every week. Isn’t that alright?"

"..."

How could Helen win against Carter? Carter had managed to persuade her with just a few words.

She only packed a few pieces of clothing. Carter said that the Gale family mansion had everything and she did not even need to bring her clothes. However, Helen treasured her old things. She had been living in this small house for three years, so she wanted to bring something with her as a souvenir.

Indeed, the capital was not far away from North City. However, Carter was the Gale Group’s successor. When he had to completely take over the group, he would not be able to accompany her every day, especially back to North City.

Helen was about to go to a completely new and strange city, as well as a new home. Therefore, she took the pillow she usually slept on.

Carter smiled and asked, "Why are you bringing that pillow?"

"I like it. With a familiar pillow, I can feel more at ease."

Carter felt that what she said made sense. He let her bring whatever she wanted.

…

On the plane, Helen felt quite uneasy and asked, "Your father doesn't like me very much. Will he be particularly difficult to get along with?"

"If you really can't get along with him, we can move out after some time. I have a lot of houses in the capital, so you can live in any one you like."

Helen looked at Carter displaying his wealth and felt awkward for no reason. She held the pillow and said, "I know that you have money but you don't have to be so wasteful. You’ve bought so many houses. Can they be eaten?"

Carter looked at her cute expression and explained, "Property in the capital is expensive. I bought it mostly for investment."

"It’s a game for the rich."

Carter grabbed the little woman. "Mrs. Gale, do you have any prejudice against capitalists?"

"My company’s boss is very stingy and loves to dock our pay. It always happens to someone who has hit their sales targets. Their commission is delayed for half a year or longer. Carter, do you do the same to your employees?"

"I'm very generous to the capable employees, Mrs. Gale."

"..."

During the journey, Helen had random thoughts that quickly passed the time. After a while, they arrived at the capital.

When they got off the plane, Helen held the pillow and stood there, refusing to leave.

After taking their luggage, Carter looked back and found that Mrs. Gale had disappeared. She stood far away, refusing to come over.

Carter touched his forehead, walked over, and asked softly, "What's the matter?"

"Carter, can I go back to North City now?"

"Mrs. Gale, haven't you always been diligent and thrifty? We've just arrived in the capital. It's a waste of money to buy an air ticket back to North City now."

The corners of Helen's mouth twitched, and she stretched out her hand to pinch his waist hard. "You’re an evil capitalist! It looked like you were okay with me spending all your money last night but now, you're not willing to even buy an air ticket."

Smiling, Carter curled his lips. He carried her luggage with one hand and hugged her with the other. "Let's go. Assistant Graham is already waiting for us at the door. If you back down again, I’ll really have doubts if you love me."

Helen glared at him.

...

When they reached the airport gate, Luke had already gotten out of the car and opened the Rolls-Royce door.

"Boss, ma'am."

Helen recognized Luke at a glance. "It's you..."

Before, they met a driver when Carter rented a car. It turned out that driver was Carter's assistant!

Helen felt that her intelligence had been terribly insulted by Carter!
