Chapter 390 She Offered to Give him Some Hush Money
Burton's face changed slightly. After a pause of two seconds, he said slowly, "I heard everything."
When Paula heard his words, her face changed in fright, "You mean..."
Burton took a deep breath and said, "Timothy and Janet are August's flesh and blood."
Hearing Burton's words, Paula froze in place for a long time. She hadn't thought that Burton knew everything!
When Burton knew it, it meant that August was about to know it too! Thinking of this, Paula panicked!
She knew well how Lucia had survived the past five years. If this secret that they had kept for five years was suddenly revealed, something
bad would happen!
She gritted her teeth, suddenly thought of something, and raised her head quickly. When she saw Burton, a dim light suddenly flashed in
her eyes. She immediately stepped forward, reached out, and grabbed Burton's arm.
She gritted her teeth and was ready to fight against him to the end, "Don't go! You're not going today!"
Seeing that Paula's face suddenly changed, and she held his arm and refused to let go, Burton couldn't help smiling
He felt amused and asked, "Why?"
Paula grabbed his arm tightly and said hysterically, "You know why! Burton, you are so despicable! You were hiding in the corner and
eavesdropping on people! You're not a gentleman at all."
"If you dare to tell others, I won't go easy on you!"
"Did you hear me?! You're going to keep it to yourself, and you can't tell anyone!"
Hearing her threat, Burton smiled even more.
Why did he think it was interesting?
"Burton! I'm talking to you!" Seeing that Burton didn't respond for a long time, Paula suddenly became angry. But Burton was born with a
poker face and he always looked so cold.
Paula thought that he was inhumane and he couldn't accept what she had said just now!
Thinking of this, Paula suddenly wanted to cry
But for Lucia's future happiness as well as for Timothy and Janet, she must find a way to stop this!
Paula gritted her teeth and make up her mind. Her expression softened a bit when she looked at Burton again, and her voice was a bit
more polite, "Burton, name your price."
At this time, money didn't matter. If she could pay Burton to keep quiet, this was what she should do the most.
But Burton raised his eyebrows when he heard her words. He lowered his eyes and looked at her, "Do you think I love money so much?
Paula took a deep breath and forced herself to be patient. She raised her eyes, looked at Burton, and said in a serious tone, "Well, what do
you want? As long as I can do it, I will try my best to satisfy you if you agree!"
Burton's heart tightened when he heard it. Looking at Paula's pink cheeks and lips, he felt tempted and hesitated.
Paula didn't notice the abnormality and continued, "Anyway, it's not the first time you've done this kind of thing. Please help me this time.
Just name your price!"
Burton swallowed and said, "Are you serious?"
Paula raised her eyes to meet his and said, "Yes!"
The next second, she was pushed to the wall on the side, and her eyes suddenly darkened.
She raised her eyes and saw Burton's bright and firm eyes and firm chin line. Her heart tightened, and she was inexplicably Nustered.
"You...' Before she finished her sentence, Burton lowered his head and kissed her lips forcefully
Paula immediately froze, and her mind went blank. But soon, a fiery heat hit her, burning inside her. Burton's kiss was somewhat anxious
and domineering, passing over her lips, brushing her cheeks, and moving to her ear.
His voice was hoarse and deep, mixed with masculinity. "What I want is you."
Like a beam of electricity, his words instantly rushed into Paula's ear and she shivered. Before she could react, her earlobe was kissed by
him. At that moment, her knees instantly felt weak...
Soon, the flame in her body was completely ignited, and previous thoughts and desires swept in together. She opened her arms and
wrapped them around Burton's neck directly
At this moment, she wanted to be with him, no matter what...
Suddenly, a bell rang. Paula shivered and stopped.
A few seconds later, she regained her senses and woke up almost instantly. She quickly let go, took a few steps back, and quickly
covered the collar of her shirt that was just unbuttoned.
Burton's eyes were red and his voice was hoarse, "Paula..."
Paula gritted her teeth and said, "Burton, if you dare to tell others about Lucia, I won't go easy on you!"
With that, she quickly adjusted her clothes, pushed open the door, and led
The door slammed shut. Burton stood in the room with a sense of depression in his heart. When did he and Paula reach this point?
Finally, he sighed, opened the door and walked out.
He would listen to Paula and keep this secret for the time being
At the same time, Lucia was pacing back and forth in the corridor in the hall, feeling a little uneasy in her heart. She had missed a call
from Elisa because of her showdown with Jeanne just now. When she called back, no one answered.
After thinking about it, she finally took a deep breath and walked to the bathroom.
Two minutes later, she walked to the sink in the bathroom to wash her hands. When she raised her eyes inadvertently, she suddenly found
that there were two more figures at the door.
