Flant didn’t look at Lisa, nor did he touch the tea,
Bernard was anxious.
room fell silent, you could hear a pin drop..
Flint looked uninterested in Lisa. If that’s that case, low could the Olsens make thus fancy connection happen!
Maggie said, “Bernard, someone’s looking for you. It serius urgent. Why don’t you come with me to the study?
She gave Bernard a subtle glance and tugged him up. Bernard understood, saying, “Oh, I remember now. Nathan, you come
with me ton
Maggie pulled Tiffany along, and they left the living room. Lisa instinctively glanced at Mario.
“You can keep Mr. Hale company,” Mario said. “I need to take a call”
“Mario Lisa’s eyes widened as she reached out to stop him, but Mario brushed her hand aside, his voice stern. “Stay and talk with Mr. Hale, understand?”
Lisa pressed her lips together tightly
Mario quickly left the living room, and Lisa clenched her fingers, and fought the urge to run.
Something about the Flint she saw today felt different from the one she had met before

int reclined on the sofa, finally looking up at Lisa. “Are you scared?”
“No,” Lisa replied, her voice steady. “I just don’t know what they want from me
“Don’t know?” Flint leaned in, gripping Lisa’s chin. “Your parents are planning to sell you to me?
Lisa’s eyes widened in shock.
She knew the Olsens had been thinking about arranging a marriage for her, but she didn’t expect it to happen so quickly! In her previous life, she never even met Flint before she was burned alive. Why was everything moving so much faster this
Luther had half–jokingly told her that Flint wasn’t a good person, and while Lisa had once been skeptical, she now knew for sure. Flint wasn’t just a bad person, he was probably a devil!
After all, why else would the Olsens offer her such a good opportunity instead of giving it to Tiffany?
Lisa knew where she stood in this family–her status was even lower than Tillany’s dog’s, so no good fortune would ever come her way. If something seemed like a gift from the heavens, it was sure to be filled with
poison.
“Boss,” Wesley said, sounding a bit exasperated. “You’ve frightened Ms. Lisa.”
Flint raised an eyebrow, noticing the tremble in Lisa’s eyelashes. He let go of her chin and said, “So timid,”
Lisa looked at Wesley. “What he said just now was that meant to scare mer
Wesley replied, “No”
Lisa almost passed out
Wesley’s phone rang, and Flint waved him away. Wesley nodded, ignoring the pleading look Lisa gave him and left the room. The living room was left with just Lisa and Flint.
Flint picked up the cup of tea, now lukewarm, and took a sip before slowly asking, “Do you know what Bernard said to me?” Lisa kept h

Flint said. “They plan to give you to me in exchange for another chance at a partnership”
Lisa’s head snapped up. “What do you mean, give me to you?”

The meaning is, with no official status, I can play however I want,” Flint said, his voice was cold, but what he said was totally not cold. “Get it now?”
Lisa’s face turned pale.
She thought the Olsens were just gonna use her for a marriage deal, but they were way worse than she thought. They were not even giving her any status, she was just a gift, a plaything for Flint!
“Mr. Hale…“Lisa said with difficulty, “Can you refuse?”
“Why would I refuse?” Flint replied with a question.
Lisa said. “You’re not that kind of person
Then you don’t know me well enough.” Flim said, lightly brushing his fingers over the scar on her lip. “Still not healed?”
Lisa felt as if a scorpion had stung her, her entire body urging her to flee, but in reality, she couldn’t even bring herself to step
back.
Flint was such a significant figure that even Bernard had to treat him with respect. How could Lisa afford to upset him?
“It’s almost healed, Lisa said nervously.
Flint furrowed his brow, looking somewhat displeased. Lisa nervously watched him, afraid that any wrong move would make him angry.
His calloused fingers brushed against her lips, it was rough. Her back break out in a cold sweat. Yet she heard him ask, “Is it because you didn’t apply the medicine properly, or is the medicine Luther gave you ineffective?”
Lisa quickly replied, “Dr. Carter’s medicine worked fine. It’s just that I didn’t apply it properly”
“What about the other injuries on your body?”
