Cole wanted to laugh. This woman really took him as a pushover.
"I’m your future husband, not an outsider. I have an obligation to protect you,” Cole said.
Angeline rolled her eyes at him. If Cole had said this nonsense last time, Angeline would have flushed with anger and rebutted him.
However, Cole knew he had erred but still did not correct them, and as time passed, Angeline had become numb. She was too lazy to correct his wording.
After all, the result would be the same no matter how many times she corrected him.
She only hoped for him to leave as soon as possible.
She remembered Cole had once said that he came to Imperial Capital to carry out something and that after he was done, he would leave.
"By the way, are you done with your business?" Angeline asked while harboring bad intentions.
Cole narrowed his eyes. It was rare to see him showing such a solemn expression.
"Angeline, my business has not been going well, so I can't take you away as I had promised before, but I do promise you that I'll hurry up and settle it. Then, I’ll take you away as soon as possible," he said in an
oddly serious manner.
Angeline gaped in shock.
When did she promise him that she would go with him?
This person's behavior was too wild. Angeline could not help but ridicule him, "And here I thought you would've finished this business in three days and then get lo- Leave Imperial Capital?"
There was a rare frustration on Cole’s face.
"I’ve never failed before in my life, but this matter is indeed tough," Cole said very sincerely.
Angeline asked curiously, "What matter is it?"
"I'm looking for someone,” Cole said.
