Chapter 126
Courtney locked at Hayden, stayed silent for a long time. “Hayden… please don’t die,” she finally said in a choked voice.
She actually had nothing left. At this point, all that money also didn’t even matter to her. She didn’t care that money at all, and she also believed with no reason that Hayden wasn’t close to her for the money.
After all, she had spent five years with Hayden in South Weidan.
“Austin wasn’t wrong, I’m indeed pretty terrible. Emotional cheating can be worse than physical cheating Maybe… maybe I began to waver while we were in South Wesdan, but I just wouldn’t admit it, Courtney said.
She felt really despicable. Back then, she had no idea Austin would betray her
However, Hayden’s seemingly bad behavior really made her waver. She was thinking when it all started exactly.
It was when Hayden got hit by stray bullets while protecting her and lay bleeding on the ground. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to go back and save Hayden, Instead, she just didn’t dare to,
At that moment, she was horrified to find that her heart ached as if it was going to stop, and she was surprised that she didn’t want Hayden to die.
In the demolition area, when Hayden suddenly appeared to save her, her emotions were really mixed. She never expected that Hayden wasn’t dead and had actually come back.
“Hayden, I admit it, I’ve shamefully fallen for you, so if you genuinely like me too, let’s get married. I’ve lost everything. I desperately, shamelessly, and eagerly want a home, like a fish out of water, wanting to breath,” Courtney choked.
Courtney said she had nothing left. In fact, she truly had lost everything. During the days she thought Hayden was dead, she reflected a lot.
She considered ending her own life, but then she feared Hayden might still be alive.
“I know I’m despicable, and now I may use your influence even more. Maybe I’m just using you to have a home, to feel secure, but L. Courtney couldn’t finish her words
She sobbed violently, her body was numb, and her breath was quickened as she lowered her head.
Hayden stood stiffly too, and he looked at Courtney in a numb gazel Suddenly, he pushed the dining table aside without hesitation and pulled Courtney into his arms, holding her tightly.
“Then… use me, Courtney, I’m willing,” Hayden muttered, holding her tightly and burying himself in her embrace. His voice was also shaking.
He was willing to let Courtney use him, and he enjoyed it.
Courtney looked at Hayden, and finally she couldn’t hold back her emotions, breaking down crying. This time, she cried her heart out.
During those five years in South Weidan, She felt like a flame that had been extinguished by someone. She was suffocated, unable to breathe, and overwhelmed by despair with no way to release her feelings.
But now, she could finally cry and scream without holding back.
Hayden pulled Courtney into his arms, sat her on his lap, and lifted her head to kiss her, while Courtney froze instinctively, not out of resistance, but just unfamiliarity.
Courtney and Austin had been together for years, but Austin always maintained a cold and businesslike persona.

That was why Courtney initially felt so secure marrying him, thinking a man like Austin, who waited until they were married to even touch her, would. never cheat and certainly wouldn’t mess around
It turned out that what she thought was absolutely wrong.
“Courtney, Let’s get our marriage license tomorrow,” Hayden said in a husky voice, and his breath was hot and hurried.
“Okay,” Courtney nodded in agreement
“But I don’t want your inheritance. The word ‘inheritance‘ sounds so ominous,” Hayden said, frowning
“We have to make it clear, otherwise, I’m afraid people might covet it,” Courtney whispered.
Sheared that things would change with time and that Austin would find ways to fight for it someday again.
“Alright, then we’ll both sign. Your inheritance goes to me, and mine has to go to you,” Hayden offered still frowning.
Courtney also frowned. She found that the word “inheritance” really didn’t sound good, and it made her uneasy.
“will have a legal team notarize my assets, and all you need to do is sign,” Hayden murmured softly as he absentmindedly played with Courtney’s slender hand using his numb and swollen fingers.
He enjoyed playing with Courtney’s hands and hair, which was just the same back in South Weidan. He certainly also liked taking advantage in other ways
Courtney cried so hard that her tears and snot mingled, but Hayden made her laugh. “Is your little inheritance really worth hiring a lawyer? And even at whole team,” she joked.
Courtney could always find amusement in Hayden,
Hearing this, Hayden became frustrated. “Don’t underestimate me,” he snorted.
The inheritance of the Reed Group was his, all his p parents‘ assets were under his name, and everything that would come to the Reed family in the future all belonged to him.
If he were to die, and a lawyer approached Courtney about his inheritance, it could not be imagined that how shocked she would be.
Hayden suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, like he couldn’t breathe. He didn’t dare to think about the death, and he didn’t dare to die, but he couldn’t promise he’d always be this lucky.
“Courtney, I hope you never have to use my inheritance,” Hayden said in a hoarse voice.
Hearing this, for the first time, Courtney took the initiative to kiss Hayden on the forehead. “I hope you live,” she said.
She had already decided to risk everything to draw out Lucas for Hayden, since if someone had to be sacrificed, she would hope it would be her. Living alone was just too tiring for her
