Chapter 34 Stop Pestering Me

From then on, Ford only had eyes for Sydney. It did not matter if it was Sydney or Savannah who made a mistake, he always took Sydney’s side and ignored his biological sister. At that moment, Sydney put her hand on Ford’s chest and tried to push him away. “Ford, we can’t let this carry on.

You should start thinking about having a girlfriend. Then, you can settle down with her and start a family.” Ford froze when he heard that. He could not believe the words coming out of her mouth. Staring at her flushed face, he found that her eyes were calm and were no longer glistening as brightly as before. It was then when he also realized that Sydney began to avoid him and was no longer close to him at some point.

He felt that she wasn’t the same person she used to be. However, he was reluctant to accept the fact. Then, he forcefully took hold of her chin and aimed to press a kiss on her lips. “I just want to marry you!” “Ford, can you please stop doing this?” Sydney regained her composure and broke free from him impatiently. Instantly, Ford reached out his hands and tried to hug her. In the midst of their struggle, her scarf was removed.

Since she was wearing a strapless dress, her shoulders were exposed. Ford realized that there were some obvious bruises on her shoulders. Obviously, she just got them recently. Are those love-bites? The veins on his forehead popped out when he stared at them while saying hoarsely, “Who? Who is it?” Seeing as Ford had called her out, Sydney decided to open up to him. Anyway, she didn’t need his help to go against Savannah anymore.

To her, Savannah was nothing but a lowly piece of crap which was nothing compared to her. “Ford, I found a boyfriend, and I don’t want to continue our inappropriate relationship anymore. Please, I beg you. Stop pestering me! I want to have a normal life, get a normal boyfriend, and get married…” At that moment, Ford had reached the peak of his fury. He stared at Sydney in disbelief, “A normal boyfriend? Osborn?” “Yes.” Sydney nodded in response.

Hearing that, Ford grabbed her arm and queried loudly, “Are you sure Osborn is a normal boyfriend? Do you know what kind of person he is? A notorious playboy! He always hooks up with celebrities and models. He won’t appreciate girls and will only play with their feelings! Are you sure you want to get together with him and marry him? You are landing yourself in a fire pit! He will ruin your life!” “He is the eldest son of the Quaker family.

It is only natural for someone of his appearance, status, and family background to have many girlfriends before he gets married. A man like him will be very loyal after he turns over a new leaf. He only loves me now, and he promised me that he would take care of me…” “No,” said Ford with an icy glare on his face. “You don’t love him at all. I know you have your eyes on his wealthy family background and status. You wanted to gain a foothold in the Quaker family, but not through Emmett. Initially,

I thought that you did it because of me! But now, I realize that you did it because you wanted to marry Osborn instead. Just because he’s not a fool like his brother, so you thought that he’s most likely to take over the family business. Am I right?” Seeing that Ford had seen through her little game, Sydney lowered her head, not daring to make eye contact with him. She replied, “Ford, since you know about that, I need not say more.

” At that moment, Ford felt that his heart had shattered into pieces. The pain managed to bring clarity to his mind. Then, he inquired, “So you are just making use of me from the start? Have you ever loved me? Just one bit?” “I did,” Sydney answered with her teary eyes. “Ford, I love you, but I know our love is fruitless. I don’t want to burden you and waste your time, so I decided to date Osborn…” Infuriated by her words, Ford grabbed her shoulders and stripped off her dress. Then, he scooped Sydney up and sneered, “You love me, but you had to date another man?

If that’s the case, go ahead and marry him! But you can still sleep with me.” Sydney had never seen Ford so angry, so she did not dare to resist him as she was afraid that the latter would lose control of his emotions. At that time, she could only let him do as he wanted. I can’t allow Ford to be my stumbling block! When Savannah woke up in the morning, Emmett was no longer in the room. She then got into the washroom and started to wash up.

After finishing her morning routine, the latter still didn’t appear. Savannah sat in front of the dressing table and tried to figure out a way to repay the cost of the clothes and accessories to Emmett. I must figure out the cost of that dress and those accessories! Hmm… In that case, I think I should head back to my place and get my laptop. It’s time to get back in business…No matter how huge the amount of the debt, I must try my best to repay it! After thinking of an excuse to go out,

Savannah left the room and got downstairs. In the dining room, the table was already laden with food. Agatha was sitting there and reading the newspaper with her reading glasses on. In this digital age where information could be easily obtained from the Internet, very few would still read the newspaper. Nonetheless, Agatha had this habit because she wasn’t used to reading the news on her phone. “Good morning, Grandma.”

Savannah walked toward the dining table and found that the breakfast remained untouched. Seeing Savannah, Agatha put down the newspaper in her hand and turned to the former. “Nolan took Emmett out early this morning. He said a well-known neurologist was in the hospital today, so he made the earliest appointment for Emmett.” Hearing that, Savannah hummed in response. Emmett head out with Nolan, huh? But that won’t fool me. I know that going to the neurologist was just a cover. Who knows where they went…Besides, does that smart-a*

* need to go to see a brain specialist? “Grandma, have you had breakfast?” “Not yet. I’m waiting for you,” Agatha offered her a smile and replied. Seeing as Mary was not there, Savannah served Agatha a bowl of oatmeal and placed a few pieces of blondies in front of the latter. “Okay, okay, that’s enough for me.

Take a seat and have your breakfast,” Agatha gestured for her to sit down. After Savannah sat down, she let Agatha began eating first before she started helping herself with some food. “Javon told me that you did very well at the office that day. He said you are bold and cautious.

Those tenured employees at Mashion were impressed with your performance. From now on, I want you to go with Emmett to the office every day. I’ll pay you according to the wager of a Deputy Managing Director. What do you think?” said Agatha. “At your disposal, Grandma. I have nothing to do either.

Thank you for trusting me and allowing me to help Emmett. It’ll be my pleasure.” “You’re such a sweet talker,” Agatha replied with a smile on her face. “Well, that’s settled then!” “Okay.” As a matter of fact, Savannah wanted to ask the former the exact amount, but she felt that it was inappropriate to ask Agatha about that, so she kept silent and continued eating.

Seeing that Agatha had finish eating, Savannah queried, “Grandma, Emmett is not home today. Can I head to the gym to work out? Upon hearing that, Agatha said nothing.

She put on her glasses and looked the former up and down. Just when Savannah thought that Agatha wouldn’t agree to it, the latter said, “You should exercise more, but don’t go for the weight loss plan. Ask the coach if there is any workout plan for weight gaining since you’re too skinny. You’ll have to gain weight so you can have a greater chance to get pregnant.”
