Chapter 1118 Make Him Bleed

 Upon observing the repulsive Adrian, Cecilia suddenly had an idea.

 “Mr. Rainsworth, I want to ask you a question.”

 “Yes?”

 Cecilia pressed the record button. “If I were to agree to secretly be with you, how would you protect me from Miranda’s harm? And what should I do if she finds out about us?”

 Naturally, Adrian had never considered being on guard against Cecilia.

 He had quite a number of women fawning over him, which bolstered his confidence tremendously. He believed that Cecilia would inevitably fall for him, too.

 After all, Nathaniel had turned into a fool while Adrian was still in his prime.

 “You don’t need to worry,” he said. “I would never let that irondy harm you. Furthermore, I won’t let her know about us. To be honest, every time I go on a business trip, there’s no shortage of women throwing themselves at me.”

 Adrian added with a smug glint in his eyes, “Miranda ispletely clueless about all this. She’s so naive. She believes whatever I tell her.”N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.

 “Can I count on you to return the projects you previously gave to Miranda if I agree to your terms now?” asked Cecilia.

 Adrian found himself in a bit of a bind. “This is a tricky situation. You’re aware that Miranda doesn’t fancy you. I can’t openly favor you, but I can arrange for you to be transferred to another department. Whatever you need, I’ll provide it for you.”

 Upon hearing these words from Adrian, Cecilia couldn’t help butugh.

 “Mr. Rainsworth, do you have any idea how much Elena pays me each month?”

 Adrian asked, puzzled, “How much?”

 “Ten million.” Cecilia paused before continuing, “If you want to be with me, can you give me that much money in a month?”

 Adrian looked rather upset. An idea struck him, and he immediately said, “Elena is giving you all that amount of money because of your pregnancy. Do you really think she cares about you? You’re overthinking it.”

 “Just tell me how much money you can offer me and what benefits you can provide.” Cecilia got straight to the point. “I know you enjoy the novelty. After all, who really likes a married woman, let alone a pregnant one?”

 “How much do you want?”

 Indeed, Adrian merely wanted to get on intimate terms with Cecilia. He had no intention of taking responsibility.

 something to boast about in the future.

 “How about five hundred million?” asked Cecilia.
