Chapter 68


    Chapter 68 His Priority Isn’t What She Expected


    Stanley didn’t reach for the agreements. As his words stuck in his throat, all he could do was watch her


    without blinking.


    The woman before me is the Herbs Expert, Chloe ckwood, who is also the person who developed


    hundreds of medications. Theizens call her an angel walking among us.


    However, Chloe was modest despite her reputation. She never spoke with the press. People couldn’t


    find a picture of her online.


    Melinda being Chloe ckwood was thest thing that ever came to his mind.


    “Don’t look at me like that.” Melinda fidgeted in her seat. “I was talking to you. Did you hear me? Sign


    the agreement and I’ll treat your mother.”


    Stanley sat opposite her. Picking up the agreement, he perused the document.


    Melinda watched him as a frown formed between his brows, but she wasn’t worried at all. After all, she


    didn’t have any loss no matter what his decision was.


    Stanley rxed when he found she didn’t ask for a divorce in the agreement.


    It seems like she’s willing to go on for the sake of the children.


    However, there was one point Stanley wouldn’t agree with her, which was both of them sleeping in


    separate rooms from now on.


    His eyes darted to her face as his thin lips parted. “There’s one thing I can’t agree with you. I can’t do


    that.”


    Only one? He’s being surprisingly tolerant.


    Even though she was surprised, Melinda kept a calm expression as she raised her voice. “You don’t


    have the right to disagree. It’s up to me to decide.”


    She met his gaze when she spoke.


    “The previous agreement is no longer valid. It’s invalid down to every poinnovelxo fast updatet.”


    She then stated, “If you don’t. feel like signing it, suit yourself. I’m not wasting my time on you.”


    What is she trying to say? Stanley listened to her outburst without interrupting.


    “After all, your mother hates me. She’s never friendly around me. I bet it’s hard to convince her to allow


    me to treat her. Lucky for her, I don’t have the patience to deal with her either.” Melinda haughtily raised


    her chin as she crossed her arms.


    “Are you done yet?” Stanley’s gazended on her face.


    -Think it over. Which one is more important? You mom or the previous agreement?”


    He nced at the agreement again before exining in a low and gentle voice, “I’m not referring to


    that.”


    “Huh?” His answer took her aback. Then which one is it?


    Is there another thing he doesn’t feelfortableplying with aside from this?


    His Priority Isn’t What She Expected


    The next second, she saw him picking up the fountain pen and crossing out the point at which she


    proposed the two of them sleep in separate rooms.


    She bent down to study his movements, and her eyes widened in disbelief at her discovery. Damn!


    That’s his priority!!


    After that, he put the pen aside. Tilting his head to look at her, Stanley calmly demanded, “Have you


    ever thought about what my mom would think if she knew we were sleeping in different rooms?”


    “I-It’s a problem between you two,” she stuttered, her face flushed.


    At that, Stanley continued. “She’ll try to y matchmaker for Monica and me if she finds an opportunity.


    What’s the point of faking the rtionship if it can’t stop her?”


    “That’s your problem!” Melinda protested with a scowl. “I don’t want to share a bed with you.”


    There’s no basis for feelings toe between us! This is only an agreement. I don’t want to be a pawn


    in his n against his mother!


    “As if we never slept with each other before. Why are you so mad about this?” Teasing her with a


    casual tone, he took the pen from the table.


    “Hey!”


    Stanley signed his name at the bottom of the agreement. “We have a deal, Mrs. Fox.”


    She was speechless upon hearing that.


    “By the way, the food is delicious. Even though they were leftovers, I finished them. Thank you for the


    meal.”


    Melinda wanted nothing but to rip Stanley’s head off as she watched him carefreely walk away.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    His eyes shone with amusement. You’re not going anywhere, little bunny. I need you to keep me warm


    at night.


    Since Melinda didn’t mention divorce in the agreement, Stanley was overjoyed.


    Meanwhile, Melinda stayed calm and rational as she thought things through. Fine. Whatever As long as


    we cancel the previous agreement and I get my freedom back, I don’t suffer any loss, right? After all, a


    doctor is responsible to help those in need. Moreover, we are talking about my children’s grandmother


    here.


    It was a windy night and the moon shone in the sky.


    Mervin walked out of the bathroom of his apartment after a shower, a towel wrapped around his waist.


    He wasn’t wearing a shirt and his toned abs set off his masculinity.


    Thebination gave him a rebellious vibe.


    He sat in front of the window. As the investor, owner, and captain of Coco Club, he was quite a


    character. His team won the championship in the world tour under his direction. In short, his team was


    born for cybersecurity.


    He even won the gold award in the international programming contest.


    He was a walking legend in the industry, but nobody could rte to his loneliness.


    His Priority Isn’t What She Expected


    Taking a sip of his wine, he turned on hisptop and searched for Stanley Fox and Melinda Paisley
