Sweet Wife in Hidden Marriage

Chapter 9 Pay with Your Body

When he closed the door and left Lilian behind, she leaned back, gasping. The man really knew how to irritate her.

She shouldn't get angry so easily, so she closed her eyes and patted her own chest to calm herself down.

When she touched the diamond necklace on her neck, she frowned. She didn't want to keep it. She took it off and put it on the table, looking at it as if it were devil's fruit.

Fortunately, the yacht sailed back to the pier soon. Archibald hadn't come to harass her again.

Lilian asked his assistant for a bank account and returned the money.

She felt fearful and grateful to the man who had helped her and taken advantage of her. She jumped off the yacht as soon as she could, and took a cab.

She had a bad hunch about this. She somehow knew she wouldn't be able to get rid of Archibald easily.

Archibald walked out in a suit with dark vertical stripes. He watched her leaving; deep in her eyes, there was the light of conquering shining.

"You just couldn't wait to run away, do you?"

"Now that I've found you, do you think you can really get rid of me?"

"What you owed me... you should return it with the rest of your life!"

This is where Lilian lived in.

Ever since Joanna drove her out of the apartment, Sebastian bought this house for her. The old man gave Sebastian the order to live here.

However, Sebastian barely came back, which made this place the exclusive nest for Lilian.

Lilian was exhausted today. When she opened the door today, however, she found in surprise that Sebastian was in the living room.

He wrapped a towel around his waist. Obviously, he had taken a shower.

Sebastian saw Lilian stand at the door. She had a suitcase behind her, and looked like she just came back from a trip. He frowned and asked, "Where have you been? Why so late?"

"I'm out for work," she put down her suitcase down and answered calmly.

"Work?" The man mocked, "Two days of work? As a prostitute?"

Lilian's heart ached. She grifted her teeth and said, "Selling yacht."

Then she added, "Don't worry. I've earned enough for Zoe's surgery. I would never ask you for money again. Save your money for Joanna."

Sebastian was instantly irritated. Obviously, he came back to laugh at Lilian as a joke.

He never expected Lilian could earn money through the high commission of selling yachts.

He never knew she could do that.

"Huh! Selling yacht? You must have been an escort and slept with the company boss!"

Before Lilian could argue, Sebastian threatened her viciously, "Don't forget that you're my wife! If you dare to hook up with other men and ruin my family reputation, I will teach you a good lesson."

"Don't worry," Lilian clenched her fists and tried to stay calm, "I'm not you. You cannot think while I have brain."

"You..." Sebastian looked gloomy, "Now that you're back, you should go and cook dinner for me!"

He waited for her for a day and was almost starving. Her aggressive attitude made him furious.

"Go buy some fresh ingredients. I don't eat off the fridge. After that, you should clean up my bedroom. I only slept on new sheets..." he gave her these orders so smoothly. It seemed that he had been used to treating her as a maid.

"Okay." Lilian didn't seem angry at all. She turned back and started to prepare the food.

But when she worked so hard to have finally served a table of dishes, Sebastian's phone rang.

"...Okay, I'm leaving now." His voice was low, and not as fierce as he was when talking to Lilian. She could figure who he was talking to.

Joanna!

At the door, he said to her, "Be back to the old house tomorrow."

After that he slammed the door and left.

The words "old house" gave Lilian a headache. She didn't want to be there, because every time she was back, something bad would happen.
