Chapter 81
81 Ch. 81 Anxia Asked A Proof
When Richard heard the question ‘why’ from his wife, Richard was eager to answer what he had been hiding for several days.
‘Because I love you. I don’t want to see you suffer and be depressed at a dead end.’
However, Richard still felt that it was not the time for him to let his wife know about his true feelings.
Firstly, Qiao Anxia unquestionably wouldn’t believe it and instead deliberately pretended to be a good, sweet wife so that Richard would grant her every wish.
It wasn’t that Richard didn’t want to grant all of her requests. On the contrary, he would give her everything she asked for except someone’s life.
If Anxia asked him to buy the Eiffel tower, he would do it no matter how hard he had to persuade the French government to sell him the Eiffel tower.
If Anxia wanted him to give her a grand palace like this, he would give it.
Only now, he knew how much Anxia hated the entire world and viewed his sister-in-law as her enemy. It was crystal clear that his wife didn’t like the idea of ??Lori being taken care of by Michelle once Richard knew her intentions.
At that time, he was only talking recklessly to stop his wife from jumping into the sea, and unexpectedly, his words aroused the genuine murderous aura of Master Yu’s number one trained assassin.
.....
If he revealed his current feelings when Anxia still viewed the world as her obstacle, the girl would do anything to make him grant her wish, which was related to a revenge plot.
Even though he was sure he could counterattack his wife’s temptation, he didn’t dare to take the risk.
Even his self-control was already on edge when Anxia fought against him. What would happen if the girl was willing to connect and enter his arms voluntarily? Wouldn’t it be increasingly difficult for Richard not to do whatever his wife wants?
“Richard. What are you thinking? Is my question that hard to answer?”
Richard smiled a little hearing that and then pinched the woman’s tiny nose, making Anxia protest and complain incoherently.
“You ask too many questions. You have to agree to my deal. After that, I will tell you about your friend’s current condition.”
Richard could see the enthusiastic glint in his wife’s eyes and didn’t have to wait long for Anxia to give the answer she wanted to hear so badly.
“Okay. From now on, I will not hide anything similar to that threatening message from you. But I’m not sure if I can count on you. I won’t hide it, but I won’t ask for your help.”
Richard sighed at that. “Why?”
“How could I possibly rely on someone weaker than me?”
Richard’s eyebrow shot up at this. Did his wife just say that he was weaker than Anxia?
“Why? Can’t accept the reality? Who last night almost died in my hands? You’re dead by now if I didn’t have a change of heart.”
“Hm... then why didn’t you kill me when you had a golden opportunity? Don’t tell me... you’ve started to fall for?” teased Richard as he pulled Anxia closer, making the girl yelp in surprise.
“Who did!! I feel bad for Lori! I don’t want her to feel miserable because I took away her favorite daddy!” roared Anxia with a reddened face.
Richard chuckled in amusement, seeing his wife being nervous. He never even thought that an experienced assassin could still be edgy.
“You’re blushing, my wifey. Am I the cause? Why lie? I know your heart is beating for me.” came his shameless remark.
“I DO NOT!!” Anxia was frustrated thanks to her overconfident, shameless, perverted husband.
Anxia was sure that she wasn’t in love with that man at all, but why... if she let this man continue to tease her and continue her sentence, Anxia felt like she would really do?
The truth, Anxia knew, was that deep down in her heart, she had accepted her husband’s existence. She has opened her heart to let her husband into her life. But Anxia still couldn’t recognize this tingling feeling swirling in her heart.
Is it love? Is it grateful, considering Richard was kind toward her and Lori? He even saved Ling Meng.
What is love, anyway? Anxia has never been in love before, so she doesn’t know what love is. And how does it feel to love or to be loved? She knew nothing.
“Why are you mad? You don’t need to be angry at me.”
“...”
Anxia was getting more helpless when Richard sulked and buried his head in the crook of her neck, making Anxia’s body shiver.
Anxia closed her eyes and then took a deep breath to exhale slowly.
‘Focus, Qiao Anxia! Don’t let this man distract you from your main goal!’ Anxia composed herself silently.
“It’s enough. Stop diverting the conversation. I’ve agreed to what you want. Now answer my question.” Anxia pushed Richard’s chest with both hands to make him let go of their embrace.
“But you said you didn’t want to rely on me.”
This shameless man even put on a sullen face like a wife who complains because her husband doesn’t pay enough attention to her!!?
Anxia stroked her forehead in frustration, feeling tired of having to assist this incredibly absurd man. Is there no way to change her fate? She didn’t want to spend her whole life with this man.
In the end, Anxia sighed resignedly while calming her emotions about to explode for the umpteenth time every time she had to deal with her husband.
Apparently, Richard had a particular skill in evoking her emotions.
“Richard, if you want me to rely on you, shouldn’t you prove that you are a dependable man? No one can immediately submit their trust one hundred percent without seeing firsthand the evidence of the person they want to believe. I need proof.”
“Okay. I will show it to you.”
Richard reached into his trouser pocket and pulled out his smartphone. After searching for the file he was looking for, he gave it to Anxia.
