Better Life Without You. novel Chapter 153

"Then congratulations to you," Laura shrugged. "You live in such a good place."

William Walton flatly retorted: "Are you purposely angering me?"

"Otherwise, what do you want me to say?"

"My house is good, so, is it compatible with you?"

"But unfortunately, you don't intend to sell it, and I don't have the money to buy it."

William Walton calmly raised the corner of his lips.

Good.

"I don't plan to sell my house, but I can sell myself. You can just take me."

"Mr. Walton, you are really interesting, who doesn't know that in the entire Philadelphia, the most expensive man is you? I can't even afford your house, and you are the only one I don't dare to reach."

"What if I give you a discount? As long as you are willing to buy me, I am free. "

She giggled and said, "No, I can't take care of it."

"I'll take care of myself. You just need to be responsible for oiling my bro frequently."

"I bought you and I have to ..." She suddenly felt that there was something wrong with his words.

She looked at him and saw that he was holding back his laughter.

She snorted, this shameless William Walton.

"How about it? No matter how you look at it, this deal should be yours."

"I don't want to buy it. I don't want to buy it. I don't want to buy it." Laura pouted, pretending to be angry.

William Walton shook his head in amusement: "This is really my first time seeing a woman like you, my methods are useless. Now, I am truly impressed by that brainless Avery Harris, to be able to bite off this piece of bone of yours, he is so good."

If not for the fact that Avery Harris was such a living example, he would have given her a heavy blow.

Perhaps, she wouldn't be so against this man.

After all, he was really good.

William Walton raised his eyebrows: "Laura, just you wait, in the future you will definitely regret not accepting me earlier."

She smiled warmly, but didn't reply.

Perhaps, but at least right now, she didn't have the courage to accept his feelings.

Or maybe... She wasn't ready yet for the next phase of their relationship.

After returning home, William Walton's mood was completely different from before.

The coldness gone. He said to the butler: "Prepare dinner. Miss Green and I will come down for dinner ten minutes later."

"Alright, Mr. Walton."

When William Walton and Laura went upstairs, The butler thought to himself that the usually calm Third Master had changed a lot recently.

At noon the next day, heard from the canteen that he didn't come to work again.

In the afternoon, the new principal came into office.

The new principal was a nimble looking middle-aged man. As soon as he took office, he gave each of the department heads a meeting.

He made a good impression at the meeting.

After the meeting, he professionally met with the teachers and counselors in the school.

Three days later, it was finally the turn to be Laura with them.

After Mia left the Principal's office, she knocked on the door and entered.

She walked forward and said respectfully, "Principal, hi. I am a freshman counselor from the administration of industry and commerce. I am Laura Green."

Now, the new Principal was getting close to her again because of William Walton.

This was truly a world of both black and white.

Could she work peacefully in the school?

In the afternoon, after work, she chatted with Mia and left the office.

Outside the door, Avery Harris came over and stood by the side of the flower bed with a solemn expression.

Seeing Avery Harris, Mia said goodbye to her and left.

Avery Harris stood in place without moving, and only stared straight at her.

After hesitating for a moment, she walked over.

Avery Harris's eyes were bloodshot, his chin was unshaven, and he no longer had the appearance of a sunny boy from before.

"Are you really one of Anderson family?"

After pausing for a moment, she said somewhat angrily, "Avery Harris."

She hated it.

Last time William Walton investigated her, and now, he was investigating her as well.

There were more and more people who knew of her relationship with the Anderson Clan, and this caused her to feel extremely uneasy.

"Why haven't you ever told me?" Avery Harris was also slightly angry. "We've been together for so long. Don't you have any trust in me at all?"

Avery Harris said with a sorrowful face, "Regardless of whether you recognize me or not, I still loved you so much in the past. I don't have any secrets towards you, but what about you?"

"Avery Harris, I told you, do not investigate me." Her voice was tinged with desolation, "Every person has a secret that they do not want others to know. Since they do not want to mention it, you should know how heavy this secret is to me. Could it be that I have to tell everyone in the world, that I am his illegitimate daughter? Could it be that I have to tell everyone that the Anderson family hates me so much that they want me to die? "

"Do you know the feeling of being destined and being abandoned by your father from the moment you were born? Do you know the sadness of a person's longing for a father's love?

You clearly don't know anything, then what qualifications do you have to question me here? Why are you covering up your wounds? Now, you have torn open the wound that I cannot heal, and you are looking at me standing in front of you, drenched in blood. Are you happy now?"
