Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband novel Chapter 4

Chapter 4 The Feelings

Without hesitation, she opened the door on the other side and got in.

Soon, the car started again.

Cora saw that Byron was still holding a document in his hand with a focused expression.

Cora didn't know if she should say something or stay quiet to not bother him.

Unexpectedly he took the initiative to ask, "Are you short of money?"

Cora was stunned for a moment and did not think there was anything to hide. "Yes, I am."

"How much do you need?"

"More than 50K."

Byron took out his checkbook, wrote a string of numbers on a check, and handed it to Cora.

Cora looked at the check for 100K and pushed it back to him after hesitating for a while.

"I can't accept this."

Other than last night, they've never spoken to each other. They are practically strangers.

If she took his money now… it'd make her feel like he's only giving it to her for sex.

...

Byron seemed very surprised by her refusal. He stared at the check for a few seconds before taking it back.

Cora then asked, "But maybe you can give me some advice? Do you know how I can make some cash fast?"

Byron looked at her with a half smile, "all the ways to make fast cash are written in the law books."

Cora smiled awkwardly and said, "Right."

If she went to jail, her mother's treatment fees would be even more of a problem.

Just as Cora was regretting rejecting the money, Byron suddenly asked, "What if I get you a job?"

"Okay. But I have to work in the hospital Monday to Friday. Can you give me a part time gig?"

"The lounge we were at last night… go to Spire 73 to work in the evening," he said.

...

At nightfall, in Spire 73, the favorite leisure and entertainment place of the rich young men in the city.

"Byron, how does it feel to be harassed by your nephew's fiancee?"

Byron's good friend, Harry, was wearing a flowery shirt, drinking and chatting with him.

Byron knew that Harry was referring to Cora. He took a sip of wine and said, "Engagement is off. What fiancée?"
