Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 824 You Have a New Target?

“You’re right. I always prefer the new people over the old ones. You’re not even the shortest-dating woman I’ve ever had,” he calmly replied.

Jessamine couldn’t rebut that and went silent for a while. Suddenly, she raised her gaze and blurted out, “Did you find a new target at the engagement party?”

That aroused Alexander’s alert mode and his eyes twinkled with caution. “Do I have to report my own matters to you?” His words hit Jessamine hard. “I’m sorry. I overstepped.”

Alexander had experienced a lot of these phony plays. Jessamine knew it was just a business deal from the start, and there was nothing for him to sympathize with her.

“Our agreement was for six months. I am the one who is breaching it now, so in addition to the compensation agreed in the contract, I will offer you ten million more. You should be content,” Alexander said in a business-like manner, his face expressionless.

Hearing that, Jessamine smiled bitterly, as if mocking herself. “You’re always this generous. I am, of course, satisfied.”

She stared at him as she spoke, her eyes filled with her deep love for him.

Alexander didn’t seem to realize that a man like him could attract every woman simply by standing there, without doing anything. But he was more than that; he was also wealthy and generous as well.

After spending time with him for the past few months, Jessamine’s heart was all his. Even if she couldn’t become Mrs. Griffith, she was willing to do anything to stay by the man’s side.

But now, everything ended at his call. How could she possibly accept it?

“Good to know that you’re satisfied.” Alexander’s demeanor toward her was as cold as it had always been.

She fiddled with her hands, unsure whether to bargain with him. “Can we hold out for another two months?” she mustered her courage and asked.

He tilted his head in response. “Give me the reason.”
