a low voice, “What are you doing? We haven’t even gotten the girl and the money, so where do you think you’re going?”Spike shoved Hayden aside. “Are you an idiot? Can’t you see this is someone you can’t afford to trifle with? My advice to you is to apologize and leave.”As his words fell, Spike left with his men.Meanwhile, Hayden decided to lie on the ground shamelessly after watching Xavier break his mob apart with just a single phone call.This mansion costs at least a few million. Given that he’s willing to pay three times its value, he must be filthy rich. No matter what, I must squeeze something out of him today.“Ahh, what a terrible life I have. After finally being matchmade in my fifties, someone had to come out of nowhere to steal my wife. This is a grave injustice that condemns the Briggs family to have no descendants. Why is my life so difficult? All I want is to continue the line of my family. Besides, are we still stuck in the olden days?

When she first arrived, I gave her the best of everything. Now that he has taken her for the entire night, who knows what he has done to her? Therefore, I demand to be compensated.”“Huh,” Xavier snorted in laughter. “Who are you claiming to be your wife? Are you even worthy?”“Her!” Hayden adjusted his exceptionally thick spectacles while lying through his teeth, “The woman behind you is my wife, and we’re officially married.”“Married?” The more audacious Hayden’s words became, the graver Xavier’s expression turned. “What evidence do you have? Do you have a marriage certificate?”Xavier’s words stunned Hayden. All he did was buy a retarded woman, and Winnie was not even her. Thus, it was impossible
