Nora wasn't listening to what he was babbling on and on about at all. However, when she heard what he said at the end, she looked up in surprise. "What?"
Anthony, who looked a little bashful, said, "While I can forgive you, your reputation is already a mess. If I marry you, it'll embarrass the Grays. But I can buy you a mansion elsewhere and take care of you for the rest of your life."
Nora found him hilarious. Her voice dispassionate, she said sarcastically, "You want me to be your mistress? I'm afraid you can't afford it."
Anthony hurriedly said, "I'm rich! I can give you $15,000 as living expenses every month. You can buy whatever you want with it."
$15,000 wasn't even enough for her to buy Cherry's clothes.
Nora found him annoying and went around him from the left as she said, "I'm not interested in being someone's mistress."
Anthony also stopped her from the left. "You want to marry me? That's not impossible, either!"
