Chapter 294


    The smug expression she had on earlier was now reced by one of resentment.


    “I''m sorry.”


    Harold stopped in his tracks, for he had long seen through her little scheme.


    Considering that Wrenna''s cheeks weren''t even red thest time she downed a bottle of vodka, he


    knew it was impossible for her to be drunk over a ss of wine.


    Moreover, her heart was beating furiously.


    Even though he understood her desire, he didn''t wish to take advantage of it, as he couldn''t give her


    the future she deserved.


    After apologizing, Harold closed the door and left Wrenna''s house.


    Wrenna walked to her balcony to watch him leave. Despite the dejection she felt, her eyes glistened


    with admiration.


    No one else but him can maintain suchposure when being seduced by a gorgeous beauty like me.


    Obviously, the eunuchs of old who have been castrated are likely capable of the same.


    As for whether Harold was a eunuch, she had had the pleasure of finding out thest time. Back then,


    her private parts had hurt until the very next day.

    No doubt he''s truly a man.


    “Mr. Campbell, I don''t need recognition and I don''t care about how many women you have. I''m willing


    to be yours for the rest of my life. One day, I''ll definitely change your mind!” Wrenna murmured to


    herself as she watched Harold''s car gradually pull away.


    After that, she returned to her bed where she fell soundly asleep.


    The next day, Harold arrived at City Hall at nine in the morning.


    Isabe was already there waiting for him.


    “I''m sorry to have kept you waiting,” Harold said embarrassingly.


    “It''s fine. The staff has just arrived anyway. Let''s head inside,” Isabe replied in an emotionless tone.


    Harold wondered if she did that on purpose because her attitude toward him was entirely different. At


    that very moment, she treated him as if he was aplete stranger.


    Faced with such treatment, Harold felt a sudden squeeze in his heart. He recognized that his recent


    efforts had all gone to waste.


    Nevertheless, he had no ns to give up.


    “Be, wait. What happened between Marilyn and me was a setup. I was a victim too!”


    Harold quickly grabbed Isabe in a desperate attempt to salvage the situation.


    As if she had expected Harold''s pleas, Isabe replied without any hesitation, “I know, but our marriage


    was only a contracted marriage. Our divorce has nothing to do with that incident.”


    With that, she walked straight into City Hall, while Harold—left without a choice—followed her from


    behind.


    A few minutes after Harold and Isabe entered City Hall, Brittany was dragged to its entrance by her


    mother.


    “Mom, stop pulling me. I told you I don''t want to marry that man, let alone one who''s a live-in son-in-


    law.”


    “Shut up. Don''t forget how old you are. At the rate you''re going, you''ll end up bing an old virgin.


    Also, you''re well aware of how your brother is. Now that someone is willing to be a live-in son-in-


    law, both of you can take care of him after getting married. So, what else is there to consider?” Mandy


    lectured her daughter angrily when faced with thetter''s reluctance.


    Ever since they ran into Isabe and Harold at Fortune Real Estate, the Xenoses had begun looking for


    a partner for Brittany.
