1/6 William felt sorry for Jane in his heart, and he said, “Cora has been by Byron’s side during this time, so it’s reasonable that she moved him.”

“What do you mean? Was I wrong?” Jane glared at William.

She thought that William was pouring salt on her wound instead of comforting her.

William said, “No, I didn’t mean that...”

William wanted to say that both of them were wrong.

However, Jane didn’t wait for him to finish speaking, and she said, “It’s your fault.”

William frowned slightly, and Jane added, “If you hadn’t been vacillating between my mother and Mrs. Flora Lane, Cora wouldn’t have transferred the grievances between you to me and snatched away my fiancé in that way.”

After hearing Jane’s words, William was silent for a long time.

It wasn’t until Jane’s legs became numb from squatting that he said, “I will try my best to get everything back to normal.”

After being proposed by Byron, Cora still felt a little unreal.

2/6 When she returned to the apartment, she kept looking at the diamond ring.

Byron said, “Did you agree to the proposal because you wanted to marry me or because of the diamond ring?”

He wanted to complain after returning from dinner because Cora paid too much attention to the diamond ring.

He suspected that it was his money that made Cora agree to his proposal.

“I won’t tell you,” Cora said.

She still looked at the diamond ring with joy.

She didn’t like these dazzling accessories, and it was not convenient to wear them in the hospital every day.

But this ring was given to her by Byron, and it was used for a marriage proposal. It almost satisfied all her fantasies, so she wanted to take a few more glances at it.

Byron said, “If you don’t tell me, I’ll punish you.”

As he said that, he pressed Cora on the sofa.

3/6 “Byron, please let me go.” Seeing Byron being so aggressive, Cora said in a soft voice.

Byron said, “No, this is your obligation as my wife.”

Cora was speechless.

Was this marriage proposal just a way for him to have a fair reason for bullying her?

Was it too late for her to refuse now?

Obviously, it was too late because she was soon exhausted and collapsed on the sofa.

Byron successfully proposed marriage today, and he was in a good mood, so he took the initiative to help Cora clean up.

“You were so busy before, but why did you work for Sunda Group?” Cora asked.

Enjoying Byron’s rare and attentive service, she couldn’t help asking out the doubts she had hidden in her heart before.

“No one is more qualified than me for that position, so I did it.” Byron’s tone was flat, as if he was talking about today’s weather.

However, seeing so many people flatter Byron again enthusiastically because of his identity, Cora knew how unreachable this identity was for others.

“I had a story with Sunda Group,” Cora said.

4/6 Seeing Byron’s plain expression, Cora showed cunning in her eyes.

“What?” Byron paused.

Cora said, “Yeah, my mother did not support me to study medicine, and she even withheld the tuition fees that my father transferred to me. Fortunately, Sunda Group has always donated to our school, especially the Department of Medicine. We had Sunda Award, and I relied on the scholarship to pay my tuition and complete my studies.”

Cora added, “I even wondered if the boss of Sunda Group liked me. I’m not talking about you, but the boss of the entire group.”

“Why would you think that?” Byron asked again.

Cora said, “Because he set up Sunda Award just when my mother deducted my tuition fees so that I could finish my studies.

When I finished my studies and started my internship, he ended the funding.”

Cora deliberately kicked Byron, who served her, and said coquettishly, “Do you think he likes me?”

5/6 She was not reserved at all in the proposal scene before, and she agreed to Byron immediately. Fearing that he would not cherish her in the future, she worked hard to create a strong enemy for Byron.

She wanted to warn Byron to cherish her in the future. Otherwise, there were many people who would like her and cherish her.

Unexpectedly, Byron grabbed her foot and kissed her ankle.

As she flushed, he said, “Maybe.”

Cora forgot to be shy, and she looked at Byron in astonishment.

Generally, men would become angry at this time, and maybe they would warn their women not to get close to that person.

But why didn’t she see the slightest bit of resentment on Byron’s face?

Was she not attractive enough, or...

However, before Cora could express the doubts in her mind, Byron started to bully her again.

In this way, she could only forget the things that flashed through her mind.
