Back then, Nelson wouldn't give Sabrina the brooch no matter what. However, he apologized to her that day because of that.
Sabrina wanted to know the reason why.
She leaned back against the kitchen counter. Due to their height difference, she was forced to look up at him.
Nelson was extremely handsome and charming. Simon was right about Nelson being the perfect gentleman of high society.
The Tucker family was the wealthiest in Slitton. Their patriarch, Jackson Tucker, was a renowned industrialist known for his low profile. His wife, Shannon Hart, had raised Nelson well. Despite Nelson's usual indifference toward Sabrina, he was well-mannered.
Therefore, he would apologize when he made mistakes.
"Are you apologizing so that you can sleep with me, or do you genuinely feel guilty?"
This time, Nelson was taken aback. Then, he approached her with a smile and placed his hands on the kitchen counter.
He looked her in the eye and said, "So, you like being straightforward."
He was surprised by her intelligence and her basic understanding of him.
He also found it amazing that he felt so easy and comfortable while talking to her.
"Yes. If I like someone, I like them. If I don't, then I don't. I don't play games," Sabrina said while looking Nelson straight in the eyes.
She was implying that he wasn't being direct with his feelings.
Thus, he didn't hold back when he said, "80% of me wants to sleep with you."
"How about we sign the divorce papers, and I'll sleep with you twice in exchange?"
Nelson chuckled and caught her chin. He looked down at her.
"Do I look stupid?"
His breath was warm against Sabrina's face. She felt so ticklish that she turned her head away.
"I didn't say that."
"As a married couple, you're already calling me a rotten apple and refusing to sleep with me. Are you sure you'll sleep with me after signing the divorce papers?"
