His Dangerous Love novel Chapter 55

Chapter 55 He Watched Her Play Along

"It's because of Mia."

Brett replied evilly. "And your father is the one who killed Mia."

"Shut up!"

Elianna snapped. "Those accusations are nonsense! And Mia..."

Elianna didn't know why Mia had died. The Gibson family had been evasive about Mia's death.

All Elianna knew was that after Mia's death, their two families had undergone tremendous changes.

There was no point in arguing this with Brett. Elianna calmed down. "What do you mean Jefferson knew... Mr. Gibson because of Mia?"

"You don't need to know much. The only thing you need to know is that if Mr. Larsen finds out you're Zack's daughter, you're going to end up in a bad way."

Elianna's breath caught in her throat.

Elianna didn't know if she should trust Brett, but she really didn't dare bet on it.

After thinking for a moment, she regained her composure.

"Tell me what you want."

Brett was still there pretending. "What do I want?"

Elianna saw right through him and said in a flat voice, "You didn't tell Jefferson about this because you wanted to control me and profit from it, right?"

Instead of giving Elianna away to another man for nothing, Brett might as well make some money out of her.

Brett had a shrewd glint in his eye. "Ms. Gentry, you're quite straightforward. Then I'll get right to it."

"Now that you're Mr. Larsen's woman, I don't dare to covet you. So..."

"How much do you want?"

Elianna interrupted Brett.

Seeing that she didn't want to be stuck with this, Brett simply named his price.

"20 million dollars?"

Elianna was staggered and a little annoyed. "That much?"

"Aren't you being with Mr. Larsen? I think 20 million dollars is not a lot of money for Mr. Larsen."

Brett leaned toward her. "Or is Mr. Larsen not serious about you?"

Elianna tried her best to calm down and acted cool as a cucumber.

"Give me a week."
