Chapter 1027: Chapter 1030: Prenuptial Agreement (Extra 2) Chapter 1027: Chapter 1030: Prenuptial Agreement (Extra 2) “Mr. Coldwell, I hope you can keep your promise. Now, tell me, what exactly do you want to talk about?”
Richard Coldwell had not just once asked to be united in marriage with her.
But he clearly disliked children very much.
Moreover, Lily couldn't feel even the slightest bit of affection from him towards her.
She really didn't understand why a man like Richard Coldwell would want to marry her.
His cold and rigid voice rose lowly, “I just want to know what it would take for you to marry me.”
Lily was speechless; sure enough, it was this topic again.
“Mr. Coldwell, I've told you many times. I don't like you, and you don't like me. You tell me… why should two people who don't like each other be together?”
“You are precisely wrong.” The man's deep blue eyes flashed a tiny spark. “It is exactly because I don't like you, and you don't like me, that… we are more suitable.”
“All I want is a wife, not a lover. No… let me put it another way, all I want is a partner, a partner who won't cling to me and develop feelings.”
“You…” Lily was at a loss for words.
Could it be that Richard Coldwell had been pestering her all these years just because she didn't like him?
Well, that was convenient.
She thought that she could never possibly like Richard Coldwell in her lifetime.
Could it be that Richard Coldwell would keep chasing her forever?
As Lily was silently mocking him, Richard Coldwell suddenly pulled out some documents and, with an expressionless face, pushed them towards her.
“After you've looked them over, we can talk.”
The cold and stiff tone was like he was giving orders to a subordinate.
“Mr. Coldwell, I'm in a hurry. I only want to see Abbie and Lulu right now, and I have no desire to sit here looking at these inexplicable documents!”
Lily was getting angry.
Not even calling him “Mr. Coldwell” anymore, she directly addressed him as “Sir” and spoke to him with a slight frown.
In the face of Lily's anger, Richard Coldwell's cold brows imperceptibly knit together. “Miss Redington, there is something I forgot to notify you of. You know I dislike children, and to avoid trouble, I had someone take them and send them to Larry Scott.”
“Richard Coldwell, you… you've gone too far!” Upon hearing Richard Coldwell's words all of a sudden, Lily slapped the table and stood up.
“Miss Redington doesn't need to be angry. Larry Scott happens to be not at home tonight and is on duty at the military base. That's why, when you just arrived, the children were sent to the car. If… if you read quickly and we talk fast, we might still be in time to stop them.”
“If you don't wish to cooperate, if you read slowly and deliberately delay… then it will only trouble Miss Redington to go to the military base and pick them up tomorrow yourself.”
Going to the military base to pick someone up wasn't a problem.
The problem was picking someone up from Larry Scott's hands.
Lily didn't want to deal with Larry Scott at all, nor did she want her precious little ones to have any contact with him.
She and her two kids had always been firmly anti-Larry Scott while they were in Europe.
Even though Larry Scott almost wore out the doorstep of Reddington Castle, the three of them refused to meet with him.
“You… Mr. Coldwell, you win,” Lily said, calming down and sitting back down.
She didn't want to say any unnecessary words.
Richard Coldwell was indeed Richard Coldwell, usually laconic, but when it mattered, what he said could leave her completely without the ability to fight back.
Lily dared not to think further and quickly skimmed through the documents in her hands.
Only…
Two minutes later, when she finished reading the document, a hint of confusion rose in her eyes.
The document from Richard Coldwell was surprisingly similar to the fake marriage contract that Aidan Lucas had made her sign years ago.
