Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: Deal Sealed

What the heck! Lily Shaw inwardly cursed upon hearing and couldn't help but swear, what the heck is Miles Morgan's brain made of? Can he switch topics so simply and crudely?

"Hub...hubby." Lily Shaw suppressed her inner anger, her crimson lips slightly parted. Just calling Eldest Young Master Grant "hubby," right? Haha, a trivial matter!

"Wife, that 'hubby' of yours is truly pleasant to the ear. Just add an 'uh-huh' and it would sound even more delightful." Eldest Young Master Grant replied extremely casually. Compared to him, Lily Shaw was just too naive!

What the heck! Lily Shaw clenched both hands tightly, she almost used up all her lifetime's patience just to barely resist the urge to punch Eldest Young Master Grant in his handsome face.

What "Eldest Young Master Grant, a walking aristocrat"!

Lily Shaw had clearly seen through this guy's true nature. What kind of aristocrat is he really? He's absolutely a shameless scoundrel who likes telling off-color jokes!

Aiden Grant casually glanced at Lily Shaw who was strongly restraining her anger, yet secretly laughed in his heart: Look at this little rabbit, he's only said one sentence and she's so upset.

"Wife, it's time for the wedding." Eldest Young Master Grant lazily smiled, but in a gentlemanly manner stood in front of Lily Shaw, extending his hand waiting for her to get up.

"Eldest Young Master Grant, is our transaction considered successful?" Lily Shaw wasn't in a hurry to stand up, her negotiation wasn't over yet, Aiden Grant hadn't given her a definite answer.

Aiden Grant's expression changed slightly but quickly returned to normal, "Wife, whatever you want, hubby will give it to you. What are you worrying about?"

"Eldest Young Master Grant, even close brothers settle accounts clearly, just give me a straight answer. I always feel like I'm being forced into marriage. Eldest Young Master Grant, if you don't say so, I just won't feel at ease. Later, when the priest asks me if I'm willing to marry you, in case I..." Lily Shaw believed that Eldest Young Master Grant absolutely wouldn't allow her to cause trouble at the wedding later, but when the priest asks her if she's willing to marry him, her mouth is free and the answer she gives is naturally under her control.

"I agreed to your request, I will help you find the person. But I have one condition, stay away from other men. My woman, Aiden Grant's woman, absolutely isn't allowed to be entangled with other men." Young Master Grant's voice was slightly lowered yet he stubbornly refrained from losing his temper, instead, he blandly stated his condition.

Lily Shaw did not expect Aiden Grant to propose such a condition, she also wasn't a woman who liked flirting with men.

She had only a few male friends, aside from them she generally rarely had contact with other men.

"Okay, I'll remember that."

Aiden Grant saw her agree so readily, but he didn't feel as delighted. He coldly curled his lips and still voiced out his inner concern: "I don't want to see you entangled with Miles Morgan in any way. Starting today, you are Aiden Grant's wife, you'd better remember that."

Lily Shaw acted as if nothing had happened, lightly curled her lips, and reminded Aiden Grant businesslike: "Eldest Young Master Grant, you overthink. I've promised you. By the way, Eldest Young Master Grant, in case you find someone you like someday, you'd better tell me in advance. So I can avoid suspicion, prevent affecting your emotional life, and protect your physical and mental health. Of course, if Young Master Grant you want me to step down and make way, also please notify me in advance."

"Step down and make way?" Aiden Grant repeated with a neutral tone and slightly chuckled as he said, "You're really not worried at all that you might fall in love with me."
