Chapter 24 Shannon felt a bit helpless , thinking , Celeste can be a bit too decisive sometimes . Will she ever change ? Putting down her phone , she turned to look at Randall and saw he was still on the phone ; his expression remained unchanged while he listened to the other person talking . He nodded from time to time , his aloof , serious face nothing but attractive . She looked down and noticed hy bulging Adams apple bob as he spoke . Blinking , she pressed against it all of a sudden , causing him to stop talking and turn to look at her . Not feeling guilty at all , she rested her chin on her hand , blinked at him , and grinned heartily . Her bright eyes lit up with a sly glint , and her eyelashes were extremely long and curly . Randall stared at her for a few seconds before turning back and said to the person on the phone flatly . Thats it for now . Then he hung up the phone and raised his eyebrow at her . What was that ? I was seducing you , she said righteously . His eyelashes trembled a bit as he rolled his eyes at her . You arent shy at all , are you ? Why should I be ? Youre my husband . No matter what , were legally married . Right ? She even winked at him . Hearing her call him husband in such a sweet voice , Randall felt his eyelid twitching , unable to catch his breath for a short moment , and something tugging at his heartstrings Rubbing the bridge of his nose , he knew she was doing it again , snorting , Youre using the same trick again . Enjoying yourself , Shannon ? Blinking again , she leaned closer to him . Any trick is fine as long as it works . After all , Audrey , Megan , Nicole , and Celia are so nice to me . If I dont try harder , Ill feel guilty . Feeling a bit helpless , he said , looking at her , I told you already . I married you so that you could be my excuse to get my family off my back ; it didnt mean you had to endure anything . Shannon smiled . Im not enduring anything . I just want to do something in return because your family is so nice to me . Otherwise , I wont be at ease . She took his hand on the seat and forced her fingers between his fingers so that their fingers interlocked . Randall , just say yes . You wont lose anything anyway . Well ! Say something . Say what ? He raised an eyebrow . Say … She blushed with shyness and soon calmed down , continuing righteously . Say youll get me pregnant so that I can have a baby girl . You know thats what your family wants , right ? The atmosphere was once again awkward due to his silence . Shy and anxious, she leaned closer to him and stared at him , her eyes sparkling . Im pretty , and you wont lose anything . Why the silence ? He pulled out his hand , pushed her face away from him in feigned disgust , and smiled evilly , Tm the man of many womens dreams . You think you get to sleep with me so easily ? S properly . If you get any ideas again , get out and walk home Shannon was speechless for a second . Sensing his firm attitude , she knew she had failed again . Sighing , she leaned back in the car seat and snorted , whispering . Youre so petty . Its not like weve never slept together . Anyway , Im not giving up . The car was quiet , so even though she was whispering , he still heard her . With a half smile , he turned to look at her and said calmly , What did you say ? 1/2 16:10 Sat , Dec 28 DG . Chapter 24 It seemed that if she mumbled again , hed really kick her out of the car . She snorted and played to drive faster . Im hungry . He snorted , not showing much emotion , Ans I your chauffeur ? K 364 % ; , saying , I wanted you Silently complaining that he was such a pain in the ass , she lied , What ? No. No one in Lorston will think of you , the noble Mr. Rowe , as a chauffeur , unless they want to get their ass s kicked . Besides , were married , right ? Though our marriage is in name only , its still acknowledged by the law . Of course , I should act naturally when around you . Or do you want me to act as if Im one of your subordinates ? Randall clicked his tongue and didnt press further . As they reached home , Yolanda had already set up the dinner in the villa . Since Daniel and Audrey didnt live together with their sons , they had dinners separately . Though Shannon was new to the family . Yolanda already knew her dietary preferences well , and the table was set with food. prepared by chefs hired from abroad at high prices , each dish excellent in color , aroma , and taste , same as those from a Michelin three star restaurant . Shannon was so full that she collapsed straight into her chair , not being able to get up . She wasnt pretentious when around Randall at all , showing her true self instead . Looking at her , he said teasingly , You just said you wouldnt give up . I guess you have a change of mind . It took a second for Shannon to realize he was referring to her earlier claim of seducing him . She waved her hand lazily . Workers need rest , and so do 1. Im resting now . After I recover my strength , I will hit on you again tomorrow . The corner of Randalls mouth twitched . Seeing that lazy look on her face , he smiled , stood up , and said , I see . I was thinking about giving you a chance , but you dont seem very keen , so … never mind . She was stunned for a second and then reacted . What ? Wait … She got up quickly from the chair and ran after him , but he was already upstairs . Standing downstairs , she pondered , Even if 1 go upstairs now , all I see will be his closed bedroom door , and I seriously doubt if hell open the door for me Sighing , she heard her phone ring . She thought , Forget it . Ill think of something the next time . Whether he agrees or not today , Ive already had plans with Celeste tonight . Celeste was already at the door of the estate . Shannon went upstairs , got some clothes to change into , and then was going to tell Randall only to be told by Yolanda that he had gone out . Raising an eyebrow , she said , I see . Im heading out , too . Yolanda if he comes back and asks about me , tell him Im with my bestie . As soon as she got into the car , Celeste arched an eyebrow at her clothes with a look of disgust . Gee , Shannon , Im taking you to a bar to enjoy ourselves , OK ? Why are you dressed like were going to attend a lecture ?
