Chapter 1029: Chapter 1032: Not Good, The Child Has Been Kidnapped (Extra 4) Chapter 1029: Chapter 1032: Not Good, The Child Has Been Kidnapped (Extra 4) Just like the original Aidan Lucas.
He mistook Hannah Ford for his younger self and reluctantly accepted her proposal to sign a marriage agreement with him in order to repay a favor.
However, unlike Aidan Lucas,
Richard Coldwell's agreement was even more stringent.
“To show affection in public, yet not to maintain any physical touch in private. If the terms are breached, an immense penalty will be due. Mr. Coldwell… you are doing this to capture someone's attention, aren't you?”
For some reason, Lily suddenly had that feeling.
She thought, why would a man like Richard Coldwell insist on following her and having her marry him?
Even though he said that a family union was most suitable, he still made her sign such an agreement.
“You're not looking for me just for the sake of a proper match. I think, you feel that because I don't like you, and I have a child, even if I really married you, I wouldn't cling to you. That's why you think I'm the most suitable, isn't it?”
“Mr. Coldwell… if I'm not wrong. If I really agree to marry you, you would definitely intentionally announce our marriage to the public, dragging me in front of the media to wildly flaunt our love, and you might even purposefully hold a grand wedding ceremony.”
“Pfft, Mr. Coldwell, by doing this, you want to lure not just one woman out. I think, you want that woman to come and snatch the groom, right?”
After Lily finished speaking, other expressions besides indifference and coldness finally appeared on Richard Coldwell's poker face.
His sharp and chiseled features stiffened slightly.
He seemed hesitant, almost angry, his tumultuous emotions flickered across his rigid and cold poker face, like a palette overturned.
“Mr. Coldwell, I'm right, aren't I?”
Richard Coldwell had already made the call; both darlings were on their way back.
Lily was in good spirits, casually propping her face with her hand, savoring the rare interesting expressions on Richard Coldwell's face.
Ha ha, it seemed Richard Coldwell was not the ascetic she and David Redington thought he was.
This distinguished man likely had someone he cared for deeply.
To draw her out, he was even willing to use his own marriage as a stake.
After a long while, Richard Coldwell finally reverted to his indifferent demeanor.
He fixed his cold, detached blue gaze upon the woman sitting opposite him.
“Lily Redington…”
The man gritted his teeth, his voice low and frosty, making Lily somewhat afraid.
She hadn't accidentally provoked Richard Coldwell into real anger, had she?
As she was thinking, she heard him say, “Tell me… will doing this, possibly, change her mind?”
“Huh?” After all that, this was what Richard Coldwell wanted to ask.
Lily breathed a sigh of relief. “Change her mind? Of course not. She will probably dislike you even more…”
The words were out before she realized that Richard Coldwell's already expressionless face grew a few degrees colder.
She quickly corrected herself, “It's not certain, they say the opposite of love is hate. I don't know what misunderstanding you two have, but if… she still loves you, hearing the news you're getting married will definitely make her very angry. Um… If you've been looking for her many years and she hasn't appeared, using this method might not necessarily be ineffective…”
Before she could finish, the study room door was suddenly knocked on fiercely from the outside.
A hint of displeasure flashed through Richard Coldwell's deep blue eyes.
The door to the study had already been locked.
He stood up and went over to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, he saw a tall and slender figure collapsed at the door's edge.
“Cory… not good, our people have been ambushed. The child has been taken away…”
