Chapter 51 This mouth is only good for screaming in pain
"All right, you're still my wife. You can accompany me to the mental hospital from now on."
Winona frowned, what a despicable bastard!
Zachary's tone sounded normal, but the breath that brushed past her ear was suppressed, heavy, and chaotic. Winona had no doubt that if she uttered one more word of refusal, he would find another, more violent way to vent his anger.
The room fell into silence...
Zachary glanced at his wristwatch, seemingly counting down.
Suddenly, Winona spoke up, "Ten million dollars."
"What?" Zachary was taken aback.
"I'll accompany you to negotiate this deal. If successful, it will clear the three billion dollars of debt. If not, you have to give me ten million dollars as compensation."
What if it didn't work out in the end? Wouldn't she be at a huge loss?
She wasn't going to make such a stupid decision, especially since Zachary was not a trustworthy person in her eyes. She always felt like he was trying to deceive her!
These business negotiations usually lasted only a few hours, and she didn't have to do anything except be a good luck charm on the side.
Whether it was clearing three billion dollars of debt or getting ten million dollars as compensation, it was a profitable deal.
Zachary chuckled, coldly mocking her, "Ten million dollars? Are you made of gold? Is your presence worth such a high compensation?"
Winona ignored his sarcasm and asked, "In what capacity do I accompany you?"
"They came with their wives, so you naturally accompany me as my wife."
Winona shrugged, "I have to act like a deep-loving wife with you, go around showing off, maybe even drink and find topics to get closer to the other party. It's exhausting. Besides, the fact that I'm remarrying, it will affect your business meetings. If the whole world knows about it, even fewer people will be able to withstand the pressure of marrying me. So ten million dollars is not too little at all. If you don't agree to the three billion dollars, I'll just save up by myself."
Zachary gritted his teeth and squeezed out each word from his throat, "You still want to remarry?"
"Of course," Winona smiled indifferently, "Do you think I would lose faith in men all over the world just because of you? You're not that important, ah..."
She screamed in pain, feeling like Zachary, this twisted man, was about to crush her waist!
Seeing her in pain, Zachary laughed and the force on her waist lessened a bit. "This mouth of yours is indeed only good for screaming in pain."
"The other party's plane arrives at the airport at 9 a.m. the day after tomorrow. We'll go together to pick them up."
This meant he agreed to her conditions.
Winona wasn't surprised. Compared to ten million dollars, which was nothing, it was a small price to pay for a cooperation worth billions of dollars.
Seeing that Zachary didn't leave but instead walked further into the room, she hurriedly held him back. "The matter is settled, you can leave now."
"I'm too tired. I'll sleep here tonight."
"What?" The difference in physical strength between men and women was evident at this moment. Even if Zachary didn't exert any effort, she couldn't move him an inch.
Winona pursed her lips and had an idea. She touched her stomach.
"Sure, I can stay, but I'm hungry now. I haven't had dinner yet."
"So what?" Zachary raised an eyebrow, a mocking smile on his lips. "Do you expect me to go downstairs and buy something for you? Winona, you must be dreaming if you think I'll do anything like this."
"I wouldn't dare ask you to do that. I just wanted you to accompany me. There's a snack shop downstairs. It's safer since this place is rather secluded. It's not safe for a woman to go out alone at this time."
Zachary looked at her small face and realized she would only get even skinnier if she didn't eat. He coldly snorted, "You knew it wasn't safe but still chose to move here. You brought this upon yourself, so it serves you right."
Although he said that, he still opened the door and walked out. He glanced at Winona, who was still wearing slippers, and urged her with a frown, "Hurry up, you have one minute to change your shoes."
At that moment, Winona held onto the doorknob, turned around, and gave him a bright smile. With a warning glare from Zachary, she slammed the door shut with a loud bang!
The next second, it was locked, and she went to sleep!
Zachary, who had been driven out of the door, had a gloomy expression on his face. "Damn it... "
Well, he wouldn't bother arguing with her. He was a magnanimous man.
On the day when the head of PUD Company came, Winona took a day off and went with Zachary to pick up the person at the airport.
After a brief introduction, they each got into their own car.
After a while, Winona looked at the resort ahead and frowned tightly. She finally understood why Zachary had asked her to bring two extra sets of clothes and said he was afraid she would throw up and have nothing to change into. He was simply a fraud!
"How long are we going to stay here?"
"It depends on how long it takes to sign the contract."
"If the contract is signed tonight, can I leave tonight?"
She only took one day off.
Zachary glanced at her, his eyes and face cold. "Mrs. Bailey, it's not so easy to get a ten million dollar service fee. Do your job well first before discussing terms with me."
As he spoke, the car carrying the head of PUD Company arrived at the resort.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, they looked at the time and realized it was almost noon, so they directly went to the restaurant.
The restaurant was on the second floor and quite crowded since it was mealtime. Winona spotted Matthew sitting at a window booth with a glance...
He was talking to someone, with a cigarette in his hand resting on the table and a pale blue smoke swirling around his fingers.
The group of wealthy second-generation heirs sitting together was undoubtedly the most eye-catching presence in the entire hall.
Zachary's mocking voice fell on her head. "Do you want to go and sit with him?"
Winona looked at him calmly, afraid that he already knew about Matthew's situation here.
She smiled insincerely, "Yes, you really know me well."
After saying that, she walked straight towards the window spot. Zachary's expression instantly turned cold, and he pulled her back. "Winona, are you really going?"
