The Ex-con Queen Strikes Back novel Chapter 210

Chapter 210

Right now, Skylar only want two things. She wanted to build her own business empire, and to cure Adam’s illness so he could grow up healthy,

‘Dating? No thanks. Total time waster, and who needs the emotional baggage?‘ Skylar thought.

From the look in Skylar’s eyes, Brada could tell that romance was the furthest thing from her mind.

But it didn’t matter, he could wait. After all, a hunter knew best how to bide his time.

He said, “Skylar, please don’t feel pressured by my feelings for you. You’re free to ignore me and just carry on as usual.”

Brada didn’t want his affection to burden her. With a tender smile, he spoke softly, his words wrapping around her like a warm breeze.

“Mr. Fleur, I’m just not right for you,” Skylar sighed.

Brada pursed his lips stubbornly. “You won’t know unless you try.”

Seeing that persuasion was futile, Skylar played her trump card. “Brada, I’m married, and I have a five–year–old son, Adam.”

Brada was thunderstruck. “Wait, you’re married? And you have a kid?

“You look so young, I’d never guess you’re the mother of a five–year–old.”

Skylar let out a soft chuckle. “Thanks for the compliment, but that’s just the truth.”

Brada couldn’t help feeling a bit disappointed, but he quickly perked up and said with a smile, “It’s alright.”

Brada thought, ‘I’ve made up my mind.

‘So what if she has a kid? So what if she’s married?

‘So what if I play a little dirty to get the woman I want? Finally found someone I like, I’m not letting her go.

‘If I can really win her over, that just proves the other man isn’t the right match for her.‘

Skylar was confused.

‘Seriously? How can he say ‘it’s alright‘?‘ Skylar thought in disbelief.

Brada continued stubbornly, “Marriage isn’t forever. You can always get divorced. I’m totally fine with you having a child. If we end up together, I promise I’ll love your child as my own.”

He thought, ‘Getting a kid for free? Now that’s a bonus, I couldn’t be happier!

‘Two for the price of one, I’m more than pleased with this arrangement.‘

Skylar just couldn’t follow his erratic train of thought.

Skylar thought to herself, ‘I knew people from his country were open–minded, but this? This is on a whole other level.‘

Skylar rubbed her temples. “Brada, cut it out already.”

“I’m not joking around, Ms. Lambert. I’m completely serious, I’m sincerely courting you.”

With unwavering determination in his eyes, Brada seized the moment of her hesitation and gently pressed the bouquet into her arms. He declared with a soft smile, “They say every romance begins with flowers.

“1 specially picked out this bouquet of the reddest and freshest roses at the florist, arranged just for you, Skylar. Hope you like them.”

Afraid Skylar might call him back to return the bouquet, Brada made a quick exit before she could say a word.

Skylar stared at the bouquet in her arms with a troubled expression.

Skylar took the flowers to her office and dumped them on Sophie to deal with.
