Marriage Beyond Redemption

Chapter 197

Chapter 197 If You Want, I Can Have It Too.

Peyton never intended to provoke Helena.

Peyton thought, “Why did she come back so quickly? If she sees me now, kissing Nolan, she might cause a huge scene at the Dalton Group.”

Peyton pushed Nolan’s chest, but he did not let go of her, instead tightening his grip on her wrist, deepening the kiss.

At that moment, Nolan seemed to have longed for it for a while. He was like a lost traveler who finally found the only oasis and refused to Het go even in death.

Peyton was already panicking. Helena was about to come in, but Nolan showed no sign of letting go.

“Let me go…”

While Peyton was speaking, Nolan greedily and forcefully stuck his tongue into her mouth, sucking on her tongue.

Helena grew increasingly impatient. She thought she was clearly Nolan’s fiancée, but Lucian was very guarded against her.

“What? I have to make an appointment to see my fiancé? Move aside.”

Peyton’s heart raced. She suddenly bit Nolan and managed to break free from his embrace.

Peyton thought, “This lunatic! He’s pestering me while also agreeing to marry Helena. What is he plotting?”

“If he liked Helena, how could he be so affectionate with me at a time like this?”

Peyton’s eyes were filled with anger. She lowered her voice and said, “Nolan, have you gone mad?”

Nolan smiled and looked at Peyton meaningfully.

Nolan believed that this was Peyton’s true face.

Peyton was like a headless fly. She wandered around the spacious room, at one moment pulling open the shelves of the bookcase, and at another moment crawling on the floor trying to hide under the sofa.

Peyton looked around and found that Nolan’s office couldn’t even hide a single person. She couldn’t help but complain softly, “Don’t you have any private rooms?”

“What?”

“It’s the part in the novel where the CEO and the female secretary sleep together!”

Nolan couldn’t help but laugh and replied, “No, I don’t. But if you want, I can have one too.”

Peyton’s face turned red and he thought, “What is he saying?”

“You actually didn’t need to hide…”

Nolan hadn’t finished speaking yet, and Helena, who was dealing with Lucian on the other side, was extremely impatient. She immediately pushed open the door.

Helena quickly scanned the room and only saw Nolan sitting behind the desk with a pen in his hand.

Nolan slowly lifted his head and looked at Helena with displeasure.

Impatiently, Nolan asked, “What are you here for?”

When Helena was about to speak, she noticed a trace of blood on Nolan’s lips, and there was a stack of scattered documents next to the desk.

“I came to see you and then I left.”

Helena approached Nolan without a word. “Nolan, what happened to your lips?”

“Bit it.”

“Who bit you?” Helena’s footsteps quickened.

Peyton, hiding under Nolan’s desk at the moment, felt her heart racing as she heard Helena’s voice getting closer. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

As Nolan said, Peyton actually didn’t need to hide.

Just as Helena pushed the door open, Peyton instinctively hid under the table.

At this moment, Peyton frowned, thinking that she had endured hardships just to uncover the truth.

The harder one endures, the higher one rises among others.

Just as Peyton was thinking this, Nolan suddenly grazed her leg with his toe. Peyton was so nervous that she almost jumped in place.

Peyton glared up at Nolan, meeting his slightly mocking gaze.

Nolan smiled and said, “I bit myself. Or should I say, who do you think bit me?”
