Chapter 100: Cheap Husband
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Tang Yu was completely confident in her own guess.
“It’s Clark, right? I’ve been with Miles these past few days, so she wants to get rid of me. Miles was with her before that, and she didn’t seem to mind.”
At that point, Tang Yu puffed up her cheeks and continued angrily, “She should be a very powerful woman. She even has the ability to take my husband away from England silently in one night, and even make him listen to her. Not long after coming to San Francisco, I confirmed your ident.i.ty with Adam. You’re one of Adela’s people, but you’re not officially employed by him. You all know each other. Your relations.h.i.+p with Miles can only be said to be average.”
Carlisle smiled wickedly as he looked at her with interest. He sat down again and leaned against the back of the chair, stretching as if he was ready for the late-night discussion.
“40 points. You’re half right.” Carlisle crossed his fingers, rested his elbows on his knees, and supported his chin. “The person following you is the Hook Gang, also known as the Nielmann family. The leader of the Hook Gang is Clark’s father, Torres Nielmann. The person who could make Miles return from England overnight was not Clark, but her father. They were making a deal.
“As for Miles and I, the only relations.h.i.+p between us is… that I want to sleep with his woman.” Carlisle suddenly stretched out his hand, and he pulled Tang Yu to his side as he admired her beautiful facial features up close.
She wanted to break free, but he was so strong that she could not move.
“Carlisle, who are you?”
“Unemployed? Homeless? Call me whatever you want.” Carlisle’s cold face came closer and closer to her lips. “Your heart is beating so fast… Do you like me?”
Faced with Carlisle’s temptation, Tang Yu’s expression did not change. “I want to know if you’re strong enough.”
He chuckled. “I’m very confident in that aspect.”
“Strong enough to pretend to be my husband, to help me deal with Clark.”
“So you want to use me…” He pulled his body away from her, and the air instantly turned cold. A complicated expression flashed across his dark eyes. There was a hint of emptiness and hesitation.
The only time that Tang Yu ever thought of him was when she needed help.
He could roughly guess what she wanted to do. It was very dangerous. What was scary to him was not dealing with Clark, but Miles. Tang Yu still did not know Miles’ true ident.i.ty and how scary he was. For Tang Yu, it was enough that she knew Miles would never hurt her.
Helping her would give him a chance to get close to her, but would helping her actually win her heart? This was an adventure.
Carlisle had never done anything risky. He was never hot-headed for a single woman.
At least not before, but now, he hesitated.
He knew very well what he wanted. He wanted to truly get her. He did not want to pretend to be her husband and help her deal with her love rival. That was very undignified.
Despite that, at that very moment, he was still sitting here, unwilling to open his mouth to refuse.
“Help me.” Tang Yu tugged at his sleeve.
Carlisle was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, “My commission is very high. How are you going to pay? Give yourself to me?”
Tang Yu was about to speak, but he stopped her again. “I don’t need you to give yourself to me. It’s better if you do it for real…” he came over again and hugged Tang Yu with immense strength.
“Pretend! We agreed that you were going to pretend!”
“I only want all of you. I don’t need you to be responsible for me.”
“I don’t want to give you anything. I just want to find a cheap husband.” Tang Yu pushed him away, stuck out her tongue and ran away. “I’ll report to Miles tomorrow…”
He immediately felt that something was wrong when he heard that. “Report?”
“Of course I’ll report to him. I’ll let him see how I tear his mistress apart.”
“I’d advise you not to.” Carlisle covered his face with his palm.
As Tang Yu happily went to bed, Carlisle immediately took out his phone and made a call.
The next day, after school, she returned to the villa. Tang Yu prepared a table full of dinner, waiting for her lovely husband to come back. It was very late, but Miles had not appeared yet.
Tang Yu asked Mike where Miles had gone.
He shook his head. “He didn’t come last night either.”
“Why didn’t you say so earlier!”
“You didn’t ask.” Mike stuck out his tongue.
“Can you give me his number?”
“I don’t have his number. My brother doesn’t either… Ms.Tang, if you don’t have Miles’ number, no one else will have his contact information,” He said very seriously. “He’s a person who comes and goes like a ghost.”
“He’s that mysterious?” Tang Yu could not believe it. “I will go to the hospital to find him. He probably had some major surgeries that came up.”
