Yennefer replied, “At that moment, I only had 75 dollars. That night, I was framed and drank some strange things… How much do you need? I’ll compensate you more.”
Yennefer knew that it was her fault, so she could not blame Christopher for extorting her.
Christopher asked. “How much do you think you need to pay for sleeping with the CEO of Hayes Group? My net worth is not something that can make you drive me away with little money!”
Yennefer was speechless.
She did get drugged that night, but she seemed to think that the man was also crazy; it was as if he had never touched a woman for hundreds of years!
Yennefer refuted, “What do you think, Mr. Hayes? There is no loss to you, right? Although you have cured me, you totally could have taken me to the hospital. However, you chose another way…”
Christopher smiled sarcastically and said, “You pushed me down after you entered the room and forced me to cure you. How could I have time to send you to the hospital? Besides, if I take you to the hospital in such a situation, I’m afraid you will die from blood vessel rupture before we reach the hospital.”
Yennefer fell into silence and thought, “Is it that serious? I’m not going to believe it.”
Christopher continued. “Today, I asked you out not because of work. We have plenty of time to talk about cooperation. Today, we are going to talk about private affairs!”
“What do you want to talk about, Mr. Hayes?” Yennefer thought that she would give Christopher more money if he wanted
- it.
She did not believe that a man could be so calculative and petty.
Christopher thought for a moment and said, “I got married seven years ago. I have a daughter. My wife died five years ago, and now, my daughter lives with me. I have also investigated you. You’ve been divorced for more than half a year.”
Yennefer looked at Christopher with wide eyes and asked, “So?”
“I have no other women except for my former wife. Now that you have slept with me, don’t you responsible?” questioned Christopher.
think you should be
Yennefer could not help but laugh and replied, “Mr. Hayes, what year is it now? Should I be responsible for sleeping with you for a night? That’s hilarious. I can pay you money. I’m not going to be responsible. I just got divorced. I don’t want to get married again yet!”
Christopher said, “You can give me money. With my net worth as the CEO of Hayes Group, you need to pay me 15 million dollars!”
Yennefer happened to take a sip of water. After listening to Christopher’s words, she spat out a mouthful of water onto him.
Christopher’s expression darkened even more.
“I’m sorry!” Yennefer hurriedly stood up and tried to wipe the water from his suit.
As Yennefer wiped off the water, she felt a burning gaze aimed at her. She looked up and was met with the inan’s dark eyes.
Yennefer was stunned when their eyes met.
She hurriedly stood up, but her high heels bumped into the legs of the table, and she fell backward instantly.
Christopher grabbed Yennefer’s hand. He pulled on her hand, and she fell into his arms. Yennefer’s teeth hit Adam’s apple.
Christopher remained silent. He looked down at the woman in his arms. The fragrance on her body was what he liked.
There was water on Yennefer’s red lips, which were very tempting. Christopher could not help but want to kiss her. Her face was red like fire, and her bright eyes were avoiding his.
Yennefer’s heart almost jumped out of her chest due to shock. She forgot what had happened to her and suddenly nestled in the man’s arms. Moreover, she felt weak all over her body.
“Why? Do you think my arms are so warm that you feel reluctant to leave them?” Christopher’s voice was hoarse and magnetic.
Yennefer got up vigorously and returned to her seat quickly.
Christopher looked at her calmly. “Ms. Yeager, have you made your decision? Do you prefer to pay 15 million dollars or be responsible?”
Yennefer was furious. She answered, “Mr. Hayes, Isn’t this extortion? I don’t have 15 million dollars!”
Christopher replied, “Then, be responsible!”
Chapter 117
Yennefer asked, “How should I be responsible?”
“What do you think? At present, I lack a wife, and my daughter lacks a mother. Moreover, you also lack a husband. We…” said Christopher.
That’s impossible. Mr. Hayes, I don’t want to get married yet!” replied Yennefer.
That’s okay. Since you don’t want to get married, we can have a relationship first!” uttered Christopher.
Yennefer fell into silence. She felt like the man did not play by the rules.
This time, they left unhappily.
Three days later, Yvette appeared at the entrance of Tailor Craft again.
She noticed Yennefer from afar. She ran over and asked, “Yennefer, do you remember me?”
“Of course. You are Yvette. Why are you here again?” asked Yennefer.
Yvette took Yennefer’s hand and answered. “Yennefer, I like you. I want you to be my mommy.”
Yennefer remained silent and thought, “Why is this child so cute?”
Yennefer was amused by Yvette’s words and touched the latter’s soft hair. She replied, “Yvette, I don’t even know your daddy. How can I be your mommy? Besides, what about your real mommy?”
Yvette replied, “My mommy has been dead for a long time. Daddy and I depend on each other for our lives…”
Yennefer was at a loss for words. She thought. “Why do I feel like Christopher had said the same thing that day?”
“Yennefer, you will be happy to have someone look after you. You are too lonely being single.” Yvette took Yennefer’s hand and continued, “I’ll take you to see my daddy. When you are familiar with him, you can be my mommy. I’m sure you’ll fall in love with my Daddy then”
Yennefer refused. “Yvette, it’s impossible for me and your daddy. Stop messing around. Nonetheless, don’t worry, Yvette. You can find me if you have anything to talk to me about in the future. I like you, too.”
“Yennefer, just promise to see my daddy. I believe you will like him.” Although Yvette did not know how Christopher had known Yennefer, the former could not wait any longer.
Yennefer felt helpless as she was defeated by Yvette’s words.
Yennefer had no choice but to promise to meet Yvette’s father to dispel the child’s thoughts. Then, she could explain everything to him.
Soon, Yennefer took Yvette into a restaurant and waited for Christopher.
Not long after, a tall and handsome man pushed the door open and entered the restaurant.
Yvette immediately saw Christopher come in. She stood up and waved her hands to show him where they were.
Yennefer turned her head and looked in the direction Yvette had waved her hand.
However, when Yennefer saw the man coming toward them, she was shocked.
It turned out that Christopher was Yvette’s father!
Christopher approached and said, “Ms. Yeager, we meet again!”
Yennefer uttered, “So, you are Yvette’s father.”
Christopher smiled gently and replied, “I told you before that I have a daughter. She is Yvette.”
Yvette said. “Yennefer, I like you very much. My daddy likes you, too. You can be my mommy!”
Yennefer was at a loss for words.
Christopher looked at her with a smile.
After ordering, the three of them had their meals.
During the meal, Yvette used the excuse to go to the bathroom and asked the driver to drive her home, leaving Christopher and Yennefer.
Christopher said, “What Yvette said is what I told you that day. You should think about it.”
Yennefer replied, “I do not have to think about it. Mr. Hayes, we can’t be together due to the differences in our status. Moreover, you knew I just had an unfortunate marriage. I don’t want to involve myself in a relationship at present. Mr. Hayes, if you don’t mind, we can be friends. We will still be collaboration partners in the future, and we will have more meetings in business.”
Christopher looked at her, and his eyes behind the glass lenses were deep and hot. He replied, “Okay. I promise you we can start as friends.”

Therefore, three days later, they went to a resort to celebrate the successful signing of the contract, and the factory was officially put into operation. They also accompanied Hestrya’s customers to have a relaxing time.
At noon on the same day, they met Ragnar and Josephine.
