Second Marriage to Mr. Rich (Ned Fletcher) novel Chapter 119

"I've never thought of getting anything in return for saving someone, even if he was the second son of the Norwalks!"

There was a slight smile on Angeline's lips. "I can remain silent about this, but if I take the money and Ingrid is revealed to be the impostor who claimed to save Mr. Norwalk when she didn't, then I'll be forced to stand out and explain this! Or you might even reveal all the transaction records and push the blame on me to save Ingrid."

She was right. Ned looked grim.

"You brought a non-disclosure agreement with you, didn't you?" The smile on her face remained unchanged, but the sinister look in her eyes sent a chill down his spine. "Ned, I was so wrong about you. You really disgust me! Since we're divorced, why can't you just be gone? Why do you have to keep tangling with me? I'm just your despicable ex-wife with a questionable character, right? Can't you two live without me?"

Ned's expression contorted. "Angeline, do you want the Emmersons to go and make a fuss at Lawson Global?"

Grinning, Angeline looked at Ned. "You can only threaten me once with this. You used this to protect Tommy, and now you're trying to use it to protect Ingrid. It's not enough!"

This answer was different from what Ned had expected. He gritted his teeth.

There was a provocative look in her eyes as she said challengingly, "I have nothing to fear, and you have nothing to use against me anymore to protect Ms. Dalton."

Ned's lips were pressed into a thin line. "Name your price as long as you sign the non-disclosure agreement."

"I want Tommy dead," she replied nonchalantly.

"Angeline!"

"You can't do it? Leave then." Angeline was about to close the door.

"Angeline!" Ned pushed the door forcefully. "Apart from wanting Tommy dead, you can name any other condition."
