"Or incredibly stupid, but I don"t have a problem with that . I mean I wish I stopped my ability to have children years ago, but it"s alright . I think given our end goal, being barren is a much lighter burden when compared with alternatives . "
Henry touched her hands so she would look into his eyes . "I think it"s really brave of you to volunteer yourself to go do something for me when you don"t have to . Being interrogated in a courtroom can be incredibly intense . I will try to make sure it doesn"t come down to that . "

"I don"t really mind . I mean my racing career is practically over . They would never take me back . Being on the stand about my health issues won"t be something I should have to worry about too much . I doubt I have any fans I need . " Ellie turned to him and narrowed her eyes . "If I do say I can"t have kids, wouldn"t they also ask about your s.e.xual history as well?"
"What s.e.xual history?" Henry said with a slow awkward smile . He knew that everywhere he went it was splashed on tabloids . Henry was friends with plenty of incredibly successful models and actresses . But nothing more . He knew that it was thought that business moguls were playboys, but he had always wanted a simple life . Too many women, from what he"d seen from his colleagues had always spelled doom in multiple avenues . He didn"t want to be haunted by any problems in the form of a lady . He had thought of it, but the repercussions were just too fierce .
"I mean I don"t mind . " Ellie couldn"t look at him while she said this .
"I haven"t touched anyone since I"ve met you and signed those marriage papers . "
Ellie couldn"t help the blush that had started to heat up her cheeks as she said, "Then that settles it . An annulment it is . I hope that it will be possible sooner than later . "
Henry nodded in concordance . He refilled Ellie"s cup as he searched for a new topic . He looked down at the papers, "You never did tell me how you got to know legal topics so well . "
"No I did, but I can say it again . I studied pre-law at NYU the same college where Nolan is now . I don"t know, I could never commit myself to premed or business so I thought it was a nice avenue that all my interests could be explored in . I really enjoyed my cla.s.ses when I was taking them . Now that I have a bit more freed up time, maybe I"ll go back to school . "Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting .
Henry continued, "Why didn"t you do both? You could have had racing and a law practice hand in hand . "
Ellie smiled sheepishly . "I mean have you spent time with lawyers . It"s literally office work and meetings twenty four seven . I just can"t take something so boring . That"s why I signed a pro contract . I couldn"t take reading a backpack full of boring books in the library all day . I wanted to be outside . I wanted to feel the rush of the breeze . "
