"If I had such a special sexual orientation, you would be miserable." He flicked her head gently, as if looking at a stranger with a strange mind.
Indeed, she stuck her tongue out. If icy guy really a bisexual, how many enemies she would have?
"Frozen guy." She softened her tone and sat back to him. She held his arms and said, "You care about William and Daisy. Aren't you happy that they are happy? Don't be so assertive. You even kidnapped others with your marriage. If they create your nephew by accident, will you still stop them from marrying? "
"Don't be silly. Whether they can get married or not is up to you, not me. If you listen to me and don't leave me, they will do whatever they want. But if you don't listen to me, I'm afraid you'll be responsible for it, which will be regarded as the indirect culprit to separate a pair of lovers." Obviously, he was threatening her and trying to frame her up.
Essie was shocked. He even blamed her for breaking up two lovers. What an evil and hateful man he was.
"Don't forget that you are married now. You'd better settle down and live a simple life with Leila rather than get a divorce and remarry. In this way, everyone will be safe and quiet, otherwise there will be then a turmoil and trouble. It will be hard to fight with each other."
Zac pulled a long face too. He reached out his hand and pulled her into his arms. He held her chin with his finger and said, "Do you always make trouble before you get punished?"
Essie shrunk. His fire-lit eyes frightened her. "I'm just telling the truth. Did you sign the prenuptial agreement when you two got married?"
"No, we didn't," He said slowly. They two were just sham marriage. What was the use of that agreement?
"That's too bad." Essie shook her head and sighed, "If you ask for a divorce, she will have to divide your property."
"Isn't it a bit unnecessary for you to worry about it?" Zac picked a cherry and put it into her mouth. She had said a lot today which made him feel both funny and annoying. It was better to cover it up in case he couldn't help bursting into laughter.
However, Essie did not care that cherry. As she chewed it in her mouth, she continued in a muffled voice, "I am not greedy of your money. However, not every woman has the same thought as I am. When I was in a coma in the hospital, you took the chance to get a divorce secretly. You didn't pay me any compensation or give me any money, which meant that I was kicked cleansing out of your house without a penny. I'm generous and don't care about that. But Leila might be different. She will sue you if you want another divorce."
Zac was in a little sweat.
He suddenly found that in addition to the crime of abandoning his wife and having an affair, he was also so stingy. Rich enough to be equal to a country. Would such a man be notorious if he divorced but didn't give any money to his wife?
To be honest, he had never thought of it. If she hadn't brought it up today, he would never have thought of it.
