Chapter93

Ellsworth opened his eyes: “Much better.”

Hearing this, Harriet withdrew her hands and rubbed them

together.

Sitting up straight, Ellsworth looked at Harriet, seeing her quietly sitting beside him, and just gazed at her calmly.

After rubbing her hands for a while, Harriet looked up and found Ellsworth watching her. She said softly, “Let’s go in.”

As soon as Harriet finished speaking, Ellsworth raised his right

hand, pressed it against the back of her head, and with a little

force, pulled her toward him.

Then… he kissed her squarely on the lips.

It’s fine when they don’t see each other, but every time they

meet, seeing her quietly by his side, so obedient, Ellsworth just

can’t help himself.

After all, he’s still young, at just the right age.

Harriet was beautiful and had a great figure. Any normal man

Chapter93

would react to her.

Ellsworth’s sudden kiss didn’t really surprise Harriet anymore;

she was almost used to his kisses.

She pressed her hands against his chest, trying to push him

away, but couldn’t.

Sometimes, thinking about it afterward, she would resolve that

if Ellsworth did this again, she wouldn’t be polite-she’d p him.

But every time she saw his face, remembered how he carried

her out of the fire, and all those memories, her arm just felt too

heavy to lift.

She just couldn’t do it.

After a long, heated kiss, Harriet’s lips and tongue were left

tingling and numb.

She wiped her mouth with her hand, then looked at Ellsworth

seriously and reminded him, “Ellsworth, don’t do that again.”

Ellsworth didn’t take it seriously and ignored her words. Instead,

he picked up a document from the side and handed it to her:

“Sign this.”

Taking the document from Ellsworth, Harriet nced up at him

before lowering her head to look at the papers in her hands.

She opened the document unhurriedly, but when she saw the words at the top of the agreement, she froze.

Snapping back to herself, she looked up at Ellsworth again and said to him, “Ellsworth, I can’t sign this document.”

A share transfer agreement, and for 10% of the Townsend Group at that-she couldn’t sign it.

The responsibility was just too great.

Seeing how serious Harriet was, Ellsworth saidzily, “So you’re not going to help out with thepany anymore?”

But Harriet reminded him solemnly, “Ellsworth, if I sign this, the document takes effect, and 10% of the Townsend Group will be under my name. Aren’t you afraid I’ll get greedy and really swallow it all up?”

Ellsworth burst outughing, hisughter hearty as he said, “Well, you’d have to be able to swallow it first. Don’t worry, it’s just a formality for appearances.”

Ellsworth’s confidence made Harriet look at him with a hint of

suspicion.

Chapter93

After watching him for a while, she asked, “Ellsworth, are you nning to get a divorce while the stock price is plummeting?”

As she said this, Harriet nced at the agreement in her hand

again. “Is this agreement my divorcepensation?”

Harriet’s wild imagination made Ellsworthugh even harder

than before. He said, “Come on, would a divorce evere with

perks like that?”

…Harriet looked at him, feeling a bit embarrassed.

True, 10% of the Townsend Group-she really was dreaming too

big.

Seeing Harriet’s embarrassment, Ellsworth put away his smile

and said nonchntly, “Even if the shares are under your name,

without my approval, they don’t mean much to you.”

What Ellsworth said was true.

Who would really dare to mess with what’s his?

Looking at the agreement in her hand, she thought that if she

signed it, no one could use her resignation from the Townsend

Group against her in the future.

Chapter93

With that thought, Harriet took a pen from her bag and signed her name after all.

After signing, when Harriet handed the agreement to Ellsworth, he casually put it back where it belonged.

As for divorce?

Impossible. Like he said, the Ells family doesn’t have such a

rule.

After putting away the agreement, Ellsworth nced at Harriet

and said, “Alright, let’s go back and eat.”

Ellsworth seemed to be in great spirits, as if this whole matter

hadn’t affected him much at all.

In reality, it wasn’t that Ellsworth didn’t feel the pain, but since it

had already happened, feeling bad wouldn’t help. He’d just earn

it backter.

Seeing that Ellsworth didn’t drive the car into the yard but

parked right at the gate, Harriet got out of the car as well.

She walked around the front of the car and followed Ellsworth

into the yard. As soon as she stepped inside, Ellsworth took his

right hand out of his pocket and naturally took her hand.

It feltpletely natural.
