Chapter 4 Keep Your Promise
Chapter 4 Keep Your Promise
With his legs crossed, Baron's facial features were as firm as a rock, and no emotion could be seen. He put his bony fingers on the table and tapped rhythmically, observing every move of Yolande with his deep eyes.
She was still the same as when she was in the physical examination. She bit her lips stubbornly and refused to give in. But now her hands were twisted together, looking uneasy.
After a long silence, Yolande felt Baron's scrutinizing eyes, and the anger in her heart was found out. "Are you afraid before I say conditions? If you are afraid to keep your promise, don't just give in to requests. "
Baron still didn't say anything. His lips twitched and a mocking smile appeared on his face.
Yolande's patience had reached its limit. She clenched her fists and was about to leave, but the Mu Mansion weighed her down without any strength, even to rise.
Uncle Lin also told her that father and aunt Lin had ruined most of grandpa's property. And the Mu Mansion was the last bit of grandfather's painstaking efforts. If she couldn't get it, not only would she lose everything, but also her grandfather's painstaking efforts would be wasted.
The only way to save grandpa's last bit of work now is for her to find someone to marry. But where is she going to find a man to marry?
Yolande's fingertips were dug into her palms. She raised her head suddenly and met Baron's eyes.
The ambiguous, playful look in Baron's eyes made her instantly decide. She can be unhappily married, but she doesn't want to be Baron's string puppet!
When Yolande was about to leave, she heard Baron's voice, "I will keep my words, including that condition will be harsher."
Biting her lips, Yolande took back her steps and breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Baron and said, "since I'm looking for you, I've been well prepared. I only have one condition: You must marry me."
Baron nodded and said, "My condition is that you have a child with me, and that the house is in my name."
"Are you fishing in troubled waters?"
Yolande didn't expect that Baron was also interested in the Mu Mansion. Moreover, She was still trying to blackmail her. His chest rose and fell, staring at her.
Baron ignored Yolande's accusation and sneered, "do you have any other way to get to the Mu Mansion?"
"Fuck!" Yolande bit her lips, unable to express her anger at the moment. She pointed at Baron with trembling fingers, and then smiled, "You're a family, and you're just blackmailing people."
"I don't care what the method is," Baron didn't get angry, but his expression was still cold. "As long as it works."
Yolande blinked and looked at Baron. Her anger had reached the peak, but her eyes slowly became pitiful, as if she would shed tears as long as she blinked again.
"You know how important the Mu Mansion is to me, but you still threaten me with it. Can you have some sympathy? I'm just pretending to marry you and get this house and set you free. And then I promised to have your baby. I have already suffered a great deal. "
The more Yolande said, the sadder she became. She even cried, tears streaming down her cheeks.
However, Baron said indifferently, looking on indifferently and unmoved.
"Since we are married, I have never thought of divorcing you."
"What?" Yolande was stunned for a moment, with tears still hanging on her eyelashes. Then she nodded, "you mean before the baby was born, right?"
"I won't divorce you," said Baron in a gloomy tone.
Yolande wiped the tears on her face and widened her eyes. "I'll marry you all my life?" Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"You beg me to marry you!" Baron emphasized, "Now, you are not qualified to bargain with me."
Yolande pursed her lips and said tentatively and threateningly, "I don't love you. I don't know what I will do after marrying you."
"I don't love you either." Baron said in a calm tone.
"How can you say that?"
Jack's lip was chewed by himself. But she could only gasp and hold her peace with him.
She had called all the men she knew, even the old man, but there was no result.
If it was only for herself, she would give up. But how could she give up in order to protect her grandfather's last efforts?
The two of them were in a stalemate. Time seemed to have stopped, and everything around seemed to have disappeared, leaving only the two of them in the world.
"The Mu Mansion can be under your name."
When Yolande said this, her heart was bleeding.
Mu Mansion, She gave it to others. Fortunately, it was not to her father and Aunt Lin, not to Bertram the bad guy. And when they saw Bertram and Cathy together, they would call her "Aunt." That was all she could do to comfort herself.
Baron smiled. This woman was more persistent than he thought.
"But if the Mu Mansion is in your name, I have another condition." Yolande bit his lip and spoke firmly.
Baron was a little surprised. He sat straight with interest and looked at Yolande, "Please go ahead!"
"I want to take back everything of my Grandpa."
Yolande gritted her teeth, and an invincible force burst out from her eyes.
A hint of surprise flashed through Baron's eyes. This little woman very interesting. "You will soon get everything you want."
Yolande blinked her eyes and looked at Baron suspiciously. She could tell that he was not an ordinary person, but she was still dubious about what he said. However, she had no time to verify, so she could only believe him. Moreover, she had her own plan.
"No, please teach me. It's better to do it by myself."
Baron stared at the nervous Yolande and said nothing. This little woman…… It was getting more and more interesting!
"You mean let me teach you and then get everything back for you, including the old house?"
"You don't dare to say yes?"

In front of the Civil Affairs Bureau, the black Maybach stopped, but Yolande did not get out of the car. Her hands twisted together, and she suddenly lost the courage. She actually gave up the Mu Mansion. At that time, she was really crazy.
"Regret?" Baron leaned back lazily and squinted at Yolande.
Biting her lips, Yolande suddenly looked at the man, her eyes full of inquiry. From the beginning when she was pregnant to now, She even lost the Mu Mansion.. It seemed to be premeditated, and she foolishly fell into the trap.
"Before getting the marriage certificate, I want to ask the last question."
"Go ahead!" Baron replied casually. Everything was under his control. He could satisfy the little woman's curiosity in addition.
Yolande took a deep breath and stared at Baron, "why do you choose me? Child and the Mu Mansion which one is more important? "
With an expressionless face, Baron seemed to have expected these questions from Yolande. He said indifferently, "these are two questions."
"……" Yolande was so angry that she rolled her eyes. "OK, please choose one to answer..."
"I can give you one as a bonus." Look at his proud face.
Yolande was speechless. He had got too much, and now he was pretending to be generous. Before he could finish his thought, Baron suddenly leaned over, and the tip of their noses almost touched each other.
"What are you doing?" Yolande clenched her fists nervously and her breath quickened. She lowered her eyes which were staring at Baron.
"Answer your question." As Baron spoke, he got closer to her and whispered in her ear, "you served me well that night."
"What?" The warm breath fell on her ear, making her feel limp and numb. She quickly dodged, and the blush had spread to the back of her ears, but she did not forget the matter of the Mu family's old house. "What about the second question?"
However, as soon as the question came out, Yolande regretted a little. Since he mentioned what happened that night, of course the child was important. She was really going to be driven crazy by this man.
"Let's go inside!" Yolande opened the door and got out of the car as fast as she could. She gently rubbed her cheeks with her hands. The feeling of burning made her know how red her face was without looking.
Before the flush faded away, Yolande felt her shoulder sink. Unexpectedly, Baron held her intimately to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
All of a sudden, she was stiff now, and the images of that night ran through her mind. She can't breathe now.
"Are you overreacting?" Baron whispered in her ear, "then what should we do in the future?"
Hearing this, Yolande really couldn't walk. She staggered. Baron tightened his arms, and Yolande threw herself into his arms. At this time, the two people were more intimate.
As soon as the staff of the Civil Affairs Bureau saw the two people enter, their expressions seemed to be frozen, which made Yolande even more embarrassed. She muttered in her heart, 'have you ever seen someone so intimate to get the marriage certificate?'
But then, the staff received them warmly.
Yolande was a little surprised. She took a look at Baron and found that he was just a little handsome and treated differently.
The materials were well prepared, which made Yolande a little unbelievable. She only had her ID card and household register, and she didn't know where the other things came from.
"Please sign it." The staff kept smiling at them.
Yolande's heart trembled at the sight of the marriage certificate which was about to come out of the furnace. Did she marry him now? To be more exact, she sold herself! Thinking of the Mu Mansion, she gritted her teeth and took up the pen, about to sign her name.
At this time, Yolande's phone suddenly rang. She put down the pen and smiled apologetically. Then she took out her phone and looked at it. A bitter smile appeared on her lips and she answered the phone.
"Uncle Lin, don't worry. I'll get the marriage certificate soon..."
Yolande was interrupted before she could finish her words. The smile on her face froze. She hung up the phone without saying a word, and then stared straight at Baron.
Baron didn't know when he answered the phone and just hung up. He met Yolande's eyes.
