Assistant to My Contracted Husband-Chapter 1692 - 1690: I’m Your Husband, You Have to Look at Me (3)
Hua Nuan’s eyes flickered, seeming to understand Huo Zun’s deeper motive for inviting Hua Dong and Hua Han.
Hua Nuan clenched her small hand, listening to the man’s unusually confident words, and retorted irritably, "Now that they’re here, they certainly won’t let you have your way. The billion you paid for me back then, Hua Han can repay it to you."
Back then, Hua Han had already informed her through a servant.
Upon hearing the woman’s words, Huo Zun seemed to have heard the world’s biggest joke.
Ha.
A billion?
For someone like himself and Gu Mochen, that billion was just a number, insignificant.
But for the Hua Family, it’s a huge amount.
Hua Han might be willing to come up with the money, but Hua Dong certainly wouldn’t.
As Hua Nuan watched the man’s devilish and mocking smile at the corner of his mouth, she couldn’t help but feel a strong sense of unease rising up from her heart, almost swallowing her whole.
It seemed she had been too confident.
Now she had nothing, except herself, except for family bonds.
She really didn’t know what else she could trust.
So...
Take one step at a time.
"I’m a bit hungry, let’s eat first."
Hua Nuan directly interrupted the tense atmosphere, prompting a wicked smile to rise on Huo Zun’s lips.
Smart little thing, knows how to ease the tension.
Not bad...
"Mm."
...
Hua Nuan sat at the dining table, holding Xiaobai in her arms.
The butler had prepared a separate serving of cat food for Xiaobai, while Hua Nuan’s phoenix eyes pretended to nonchalantly glance around. In fact, she had already explored this villa thoroughly.
Spanning a hundred acres, the villa was three stories high, with more than one level underground.
Behind the villa was an estate.
Far from the suburbs, but with an excellent view, it was likely one of the better villa locations in Cologne City.
Hmm, not cheap.
Thinking about the price, Hua Nuan couldn’t help but feel reflective. The world of the wealthy was indeed different.
If she wanted to escape, given her frail body, she probably wouldn’t get far.
Thinking of this, Hua Nuan pursed her lips, taking small sips of the porridge in her bowl, her appetite was rather good.
Since escape wasn’t feasible, preserving her energy was the key.
Seeing Hua Nuan’s rare obedient demeanor, Huo Zun felt in a good mood, his appetite improved significantly.
Only, every now and then, this woman’s attention was all on that little white cat, and Huo Zun wasn’t too pleased about it.
"Butler, throw this cat out for me."
Hua Nuan: "..."
"Yes, Mr. Huo."
Seeing the butler stepping forward, Hua Nuan immediately intervened, "Hold on, you can’t. Huo Zun, why are you picking on a cat?"
"Because I’m petty and calculative, not used to you looking at the cat instead of me."
Hua Nuan: "..."
Ha, Huo Zun made too much sense, she was left speechless.
A dark light flitted across Hua Nuan’s beautiful eyes as she looked at Xiaobai’s cute, chubby appearance, happily nibbling away at the food in its bowl, and she decided to lower her stance.
"Huo Zun, you’re not a child. Do you really need to contend with a cat?"
"I’m your husband, shouldn’t you be looking at me?"
Hua Nuan: "..."
Ha, husband my foot, who said I’d marry you?
Go on dreaming your big head dreams.
Despite feeling disdainful in her heart, Hua Nuan still managed to force a smile.
