Chapter 1929: Chapter 1941: Marriage Is Just a Transaction
Upon hearing Skye Brown’s words, Dylan Wellington’s seductive eyes glimmered with a hint of mockery.
He curved his lips into a wicked smile, “Ha, you finally admitted that you care about me. It’s better to admit it sooner, this way, negotiating with you won’t be such a hassle. So, what will it take for you to agree to marry me?”
Three inexplicable sentences, separated, Skye Brown understood them all.
Yet, somehow, when these three sentences were linked together, she couldn’t comprehend a single one.
What did he mean by ‘she admitted she investigated him’?
Was it just because she mentioned he used to be a celibate?
Ha, how amusing, who doesn’t know that Dylan Wellington is a playboy who doesn’t want to marry… Oh, perhaps those who aren’t very acquainted with him wouldn’t know.
But who was Skye Brown?
She was his ex-girlfriend who dated him for several years; the phrase ‘just love, no marriage’ was something Dylan Wellington himself told her back then.
Skye Brown found it ironic, Dylan Wellington was the one who said he wouldn’t marry in the past.
Now, all of a sudden, upon seeing her, he insists on marriage, pretending to have amnesia, feigning forgetfulness, right?
“Dylan Wellington, forgive me for being blunt… Even if I don’t understand what you’re saying, my answer will always be the same— I will not marry!”
Skye Brown’s clear almond-shaped eyes glared at him firmly, “I will never marry you, Dylan Wellington, never!”
A good horse never goes back to graze on old pastures, she wasn’t that cheap!
Unexpectedly, Dylan Wellington laughed instead of getting angry after hearing her words.
“That’s perfect, actually, I don’t really want to get married either.”
Upon hearing this, a look of realization surfaced in Skye Brown’s eyes, her lips curled into a deeper mocking smile.
And Dylan Wellington continued, “Besides, I don’t believe your excuses… I’m not a three-year-old child, nor am I a naive teenager with fantasies. Cut the act, Skye Brown…”
“I don’t care if you like my money, or my person, or if you’re just coveting a higher status and power. My purpose for wanting to marry you is simple, marriage is just a transaction. A transaction where both you and I get what we need.”
“A transaction?” Skye Brown scoffed, “Ha, I don’t know why Mr. Wellington wants to have a transaction with me. But… Dylan Wellington, you should know, I’m not interested in your possessions. And I don’t hold any value to you.”
If she did, he wouldn’t have declined to marry her back then.
“Not necessarily.” Dylan Wellington raised his eyebrows at her, the deep brilliance hidden in his eyes was unfathomable. Dıscover more novels at novel-fire.net
Once, they were so close.
But now, she couldn’t even fathom what Dylan Wellington was thinking.
“I need someone to take care of Molly.” Dylan Wellington didn’t hide his intention, stating one of his reasons directly.
“A woman whom Molly does not resist, does not dislike, and might even like. You— happen to be that woman.”
He naturally couldn’t disclose his second reason.
Tell Skye Brown that she’s the only one so far who can awaken young Dylan Wellington?
He’d have to be crazy to admit that.
“Our marriage is just a transaction, you can enjoy total freedom in relationships, and so can I. The only thing you need to do is take good care of Molly. In return, I can provide you with anything you need. For instance— funding for films, a more prominent identity, even dealing with Stewart Brown for you…”
His message was that marriage was merely for someone to take care of Molly Wellington, a legitimate mother figure.
Everything else, he could continue his indulgence, and she could continue dating other men, he wouldn’t care, and she couldn’t control him either.
Ha, Skye Brown sneered, such a marital relationship was truly pathetic and laughable.
Only Dylan Wellington could come up with that.
