Love At The Wrong Table

Chapter 41

“How about we make a bet, Lexi?” proposed Beatrix

confidently. “I think this man will leave her by the end

of this year, which is three months from now. Either she

throws him out, or he leaves of his own volition. If he

succeeds and even spends the new years at the

Quillen residence, I lose!” There’s no way a man can

tolerate my misandristic sister for three months. I know

she’s only married to him to please Grandpa. Nothing

substantial will come out of this relationship, much less

a baby. Once Grandpa runs out of patience and urges

Sarah to marry someone, Mackenzie will be free.

Meanwhile, Lexi was amused. What am I going to bet

with her? I’m just a part–timer!

Excitedly, Beatrix continued, “If I win, I’ll remain single for

the rest of my life. If I lose, I’ll marry someone and give

birth to a baby boy for the Quillen family!”
