Chapter 70
“So, you’te agreeing to 117”
Samantha knew that if Leonardo gave his word, he would follow through Without hesitation, she signed both contracts.
“Looking forward to our cooperation.”
“From now on, don’t go back to working at the club. The allowance I’m giving you should be enough. If it’s not, just let me know.”
“Alright.”
She agreed – not because of the money, but because after everything that had happened, she had developed a lingering fear. She wasn’t planning on going back
Samantha stood up. “I should head home.
Leonardo’s voice came from behind her. “Remember the terms of the agreement. You have to move in with me.”
That can wait until after we get the marriage certificate. I just need a little time.”
He had his driver take her home.
Alone in the car, Samantha had time to process everything that had happened.
She never imagined that her marriage would come about like this one day, but at least, for her, it was a fair deal.
For now, she could consider Leonardo her anchor.
Leonardo looked down at the two signed contracts, his expression calm, though a trace of amusement flickered in his eyes.
Simon had been watching for a while and finally understood what was happening.
The prenuptial agreement was just a cover–Leonardo germinely wanted to get married.
For someone as emotionally detached as him, this was a rare sight. However, since it was the first time, Simon wasn’t entirely sure what Leonardo’s thoughts were Curious, he asked, “Mr. Garrett, why did you bring Ms. Newton here today?
“What do you mean why? It was the closest place.”
“But this place was used to house another woman before. Don’t you think that’s… a little inappropriate?”
Leonardo raised an eyebrow. “Aren’t they friends?”
Simon fell silent. So it turned out that Leonardo’s sharp intellect in other areas came at the expense of his emotional intelligence.
“Is there a problem?”
“There is”
Leonardo pondered this for a moment. Somehow, this seemed more complicated than any of his business challenges.
Simon continued, “So, the one–year term in the prenuptial agreement and this whole thing about maintaining family harmony… You’ve never cared about family belationships before. Why mike Ms. Newton go through that extra effort?”
Londo smirked.
“Of course, it’s to make things more challenging so she feels like she put in the effort. That way, she’ll trust it those and won’t suspect I have ulterior motives. Simonstared at him for a long time before finally speaking. “Mr. Garrett, you definitely have ulterior motives. **
Leonardo ignored lum. With these signed contracts in hand, he knew samantha would keep her word and marry him..
And now they were married, there was no chance for her to divorce easily
A faint smile rugged at the comer of his lips.
Watching closely, Simon didn’t dare assume how deep Leonardo’s feelings for Samantha tan.
One thing wasdeas, though–ale was different from anyone else.
When Layla gut hour from work, the rich aroma of food hit her the moment she opened the door. It was a full table of delicious dishes awaiting her
Seeing her, Samantha janunediately called out, “Layla, dig in!”
Samantha couldn’t cook, to lidered takeout, plaging on dishes they usually would’t allow themselves to order.
Layla looked stunned. “You didn’t just flod money on the street agalių, did you?
It had been a while siture they last instulged like this.
