The Billionaire's Secret Quartet

Chapter 1428

Before Hertha sought him out, Spencer had always thought Hertha had special feelings for him.

Otherwise, why would she care so much about saving him a few bucks?

They say when a woman is penny-pinching for a man, it’s because she’s got visions of white picket fences and kids playing in the yard-casting every penny towards a future together.

Spencer had thought just that. He figured Hertha was sweet on him, dreaming of a cozy household. And it didn’t hurt that he was quite taken with her easygoing nature-generous, hearty, and without pretense.

It had been ages since he’d found a woman he could just relax with.

So, he decided to settle down with Hertha. He met her parents, even suggested a sit-down between both of their parents to talk wedding bells and all that jazz.

He thought it would all fall into place smoothly-him and Hertha tying the knot under the beaming smiles of their parents, having kids, and living the dream together.
