The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1520

"If you had agreed to divorce me earlier, I would have been thrilled. But now, if I agree, wouldn't it seem like I'm your backup plan?"

"So as long as someone else wants you, you would immediately dump me? Yulia, you've got some nerve."

"Wasn't it you who wanted me to get close to Ronald?" Yulia's calm voice made the smile on Nathan's face freeze instantly. He stared at her with a gloomy expression, and the bedroom fell deadly silent.

"Nathan, I've known from the start that your initial reluctance to this marriage, and how you blame me for taking control of your life. And I really do feel guilty for all of this. I thought about making it up to you, trying to be a good wife gradually, but you were always hung up on how the marriage started, and I really do not know how to change that.

“I came to you for help, Nathan. I really had no other options, other than asking for your help. I thought you might be a bit harsh, or making fun of me, but you would help me solve the problem at hand. But... I was prepared for all the cruel things you might say, but I never thought you would have me seduce another man."

Yulia felt extremely wronged. No one knew, no one understood, and no one could put themselves in her shoes. When she heard the solution Nathan suggested, her heart broke into countless pieces in that moment.d2

The company was the only thing her parents left her, but she knew that her parents would rather hand over the company to someone else than have her degrade herself. She couldn't get the love she wanted; she couldn't lose what she was supposed to protect.

Yulia's voice was calm, but the calmer it was, the more it revealed her current patience and sorrow.

Nathan suddenly felt irritated. Not because of Yulia, but because of himself. Why did he let Yulia get close to Ronald in the first place? What was he thinking then?

Yulia never brought it up after, and he never really thought about it. All he knew was that things were progressing, and Yulia succeeded. Ronald was interested, and Yulia was willing.

And then, came their current situation. He was really annoyed. Various emotions were mixed in his heart, making him feel confused.

"Since you were so obedient then, behave yourself now. You know that this marriage was your plan, so before I'm satisfied, you have no right to talk about leaving."

Nathan's words were harsh and merciless, just as always, mercilessly stabbing her heart. After the sound of the door opening and closing, only Yulia was left in the bedroom, silent for a long time.

Nathan left the apartment, got into his car, and was surrounded by smoke. He took a deep drag on his cigarette. Yulia's calm voice echoed in his ears.

"Wasn't it you who wanted me to seduce Ronald."

"I once asked you for help, Nathan."

At that time, because she was scheming against him, Nathan was very angry and wanted to make her taste the humiliation. Was Yulia asking for his help at that time?

He thought back to the night when she got off Ronald's car. In order to be with Ronald, she even drugged herself with sleeping pills. She was crazy to be so cruel to herself.

He smoked more vigorously, the smoke filling the small compartment and blurring his face.

"I once asked you for help, Nathan. I once asked you for help."

Yulia schemed against him just to get his protection. If she had anyone to rely on at that time, she wouldn't have chosen to ask him for help.

Indeed.

Her parents had passed away, the remaining relatives all wanted to take everything she had, and her boyfriend didn't protect her when she needed it the most. She was alone with a small child. She needed to protect her parents' company, and had to face one difficulty after another. So she schemed against Nathan, wanting him to provide a safe harbor for her and the child.

"Huh."

Nathan finished his cigarette in one breath and let out a cold laugh. So she wanted to rely on him, huh.
