Chapter 47: You Don’T Really Want To Be My Woman?

• Scarlett was still stunned, and she tried to make the whole situation less serious than it felt. “Hey, aren’t you asking for too much interest on the debt I owe you?” Francis remained solemn, "I'm not joking with you. By the way, is Skyler going to Britain?"
• "Yeah, but why?" Scarlett looked at him, alert. She couldn't figure out why he had just mentioned her brother. "If you stay with me, I will pay Skyler's tuition fees and living expenses, as well as take charge of his safety abroad. Very cost-effective deal for you, isn't it?" Francis hardly revealed any emotions from his words.
• Scarlett sat up straight as well, and her face had now grown serious. "I don't need your money. Do you think you can just buy me like that?" She paused for a while and took a deep breath. "I don't sell myself.” Her voice was shaking, either because of uncontrollable anger or fear, or perhaps both.
