Again!
He was surprised she was ready to give up half of his wealth. Not many could refuse the allure of fortune in the palm of their hands.
At the same time, he guessed he already knew she would decline his offer, especially after what he had discovered about her.
"Ok. So what else do you want?" He could not help but wonder what she could want that was more important than what he had already prepared to give her.
Nevertheless, no matter what it was, he would give it to her, no question asked. He would do anything she wanted if she agreed to his conditions, too.
"I want an honest and open communication. If you have something to say that should concern me or Oliver, you should never keep it from me." She informed him.
"And I will also do the same." Then, she dropped her gaze, staring at her fingers as she twisted and stretched them on her lap.
Advance Happy New Year to everyone.
Thank you again for another year of reading and appreciating my stories.
This year had been both a tragedy and a blessing to me. It was an endless roller coaster ride that brought me up and down.
There were many times that I almost gave up in writing as real life distracted me from creating my stories. But your constant presence, through votes, comments, gifts and more had kept me going. You did not let me give up on something I love to do despite the hardship.
Thank you again.
I hope that this coming year will be much better. And I hope I can create more wonderful stories that we will all enjoy.
And I also pray that all of you will have a happy and productive New Year!
By the way, if you have a spare coin, I hope you can buy my privilege chapter this month. I need eighteen more privilege chapters to qualify for a promotion. If you can buy one or two, I will truly appreciate it.
