Chapter 34


    Chapter 34 Merciless


    There was a hint of lust in the air. Erin coughed awkwardly and said, “My god, you really have no filter.


    I’m wearing the clothes. I won’t take the tag off; I’ll return them to you! Give me your address, and I’ll


    courier it to you.”


    Sean realized his seduction was futile, and he regained a little rity. He cleared his throat and said,


    “Stop teasing me. Why would I want the things that I have given away? It’s just a few thousand dors.


    Are you trying to embarrass me by sending it back?”


    Erin insisted. “I’m different from the other women! I can’t ept the clothes. I will return it to you. Stop


    with the nonsense, and just give me your address!”


    Sean furrowed his brow at her insistence, but suddenly he was once again delighted after giving it


    some thought. He took his phone out of his pocket, inserted his passcode, and opened his contacts. He


    took his phone over to her. “Alright, I’ll contact youter on. Let’s exchange contacts.”


    Erin subconsciously reached for her phone when she suddenly remembered. “I left in a hurry, so I left


    my phone and bag at home…”


    Sean saw only the coat in her arms. He believed her. “Tell me your number then, and I’ll add your


    contact. You can add meter,” he said casually. Erin then recited her number to him.


    When they were downstairs, Sean was about to send her home when Erin said, “No need to trouble


    you. If you can, could you help me call a cab?”


    He had already gotten her contact, so he no longer insisted on sending her home. He called her a cab,


    and they sat on the sofa talking while they waited.


    “Let me guess. You wore your husband’s clothes and ran out. Were you in the state of undress


    previously?”


    Erin responded with a frosty expression as Sean had guessed her situation correctly. He merely


    narrowed his eyes and said nothing further. It seemed that her husband was trying to force himself on


    her.


    They sat in awkward silence for the next ten minutes before the cab arrived.

    When Erin got in the car, Sean leaned against the door and asked, “You haven’t told me your name.”


    “Erin Lane.”


    When the cab left. Sean returned inside and headed upstairs. Walking past the bathroom, he suddenly


    remembered that Erin only took the coat when she left. What about the clothes that she was wearing?


    He headed into the bathroom and looked into the trash bin. Sure enough, he saw a red chiffon top.


    He reached out and fished the top out from the bin. He held the top with both hands and saw the torn


    fabric. He thought back about how much of a mess Erin looked back then. He suddenly had thoughts


    that he shouldn’t have and threw the top back into the bin. With a darkened gaze, he took his phone


    out and dialed his lover, saying seductively. “Where are you? I’ve missed you.”


    At that exact moment, in Tracy Brown’s rented apartment, lovemaking was in session. After 40


    minutes,n, sweating profusely,y next to Tracy, hugging her. Tracy’s face was flushed.


    n, I thought you said you were busy tonight? Why did you suddenly think ofing to find me?”


    Tracy was initially worried that for the few days thatn’s mother was staying over, Erin would return


    home and seduce him.


    It looked like she had been overthinking. Ian’s heart was with whomever he was spending time with. At


    least, that was what Tracy thought.


    He had been turned on badly by Erin in the mansion but had no one to release it to, so he came


    looking for Tracy after dinner.


    Tracy had chosen an apartment nearn’s mansion so that he could easilye over in a five–minute


    drive.


    n, how is the divorce with you and Erin going?” Tracy was afraid thatn would be touchy about the


    subject, but she still asked worriedly after some hesitation.


    Sure enough, whenn heard her question, his expression darkened. He immediately retracted his


    hand away from her and snuffed his


    cigarette in the ashtray. He got up and said, “It’s too hot here. I’m going to take a shower.”


    Tracy was unhappy about him avoiding her question. She was resentful, yet she didn’t dare to say


    anything about it as she knewn didn’t like being pushed. The clients and partners in hispany


    could do that, but she, as his mistress, could not.


    She thought of hown paid for the 100–square–foot apartment she was currently in, saving her about


    eight thousand dors monthly, so even if she were dissatisfied with him, she would just hold it back.


    Twenty minutester,n got dressed and was about to leave the bedroom.


    Tracy, in her rather sheer sleeping gown, hugged him from behind and said in a slightly aggrieved tone,


    n, my mom wants to set me up on blind dates again! Saying that some young man back home is


    showing interest in me and that he has three properties. The man even said that if I marry him, he’ll put


    the properties under my name.”


    His coldness and heartlessness enraged Tracy, who had suppressed her anger for over two months.


    n, have you forgotten what you said to me before? You said that your feelings for me are real and


    that you finally know what love is after being with me. Although you’re not my first, and I have had two


    boyfriends before you, right now, you’re the only man in my life! How long do you want to keep our


    rtionship in limbo? You have to at least give me some hope!”


    He snickered, lit another cigarette, and strode to the sofa, sitting down. He felt it was time toy all


    cards on the table.


    “Tracy, I know you want to get married to me, but I’ve already told you my mom will never allow it. My


    dad died early, so I will try to satisfy my mom’s wishes and try my best not to disobey her. I won’t marry


    a woman that she doesn’t like. If you think that spending time with me was a waste of your youth, we


    can just call it quits. You have been with me for quite some time. I willpensate you for this. Five


    million dors. You can buy a decent property back home. If you agree, I’ll wire the money to you


    tomorrow. The job is still yours if you think you can continue staying around. You’ll still be my secretary.


    Think about it.”


    Then,n got up and left without hesitation.


    When Tracy heard what he said, chills instantly ran down her spine. She was so frightened that she


    quickly rushed to hug him, pleading.”n, no. Don’t do this to me! I was wrong…”
