Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 564

Arthur looked at the phone in his hand and was insistent. He dialed again, but this time, it only rang once before it was switched off.

‘This woman’s getting more audacious!’

Arthur only came to look for Lindsey because he wanted to ease the relationship between him and Aksel, and he did not want to intensify their conflict. Who knew that this woman did not understand his good intentions and even reacted like this?!

He was simply so exasperated that he laughed.

Arthur knew that if he forcefully took Aksel, Aksel would not appreciate it and would also resent him. After all, he had witnessed how dependent Aksel was on Lindsey and Zayn, and there was no way he could erase this fact.

Also, Zayn Guggenheim and Shaun Juhl were not as easy to deal with as he originally thought if he were to forcefully take the child. Arthur was never an impulsive person. He knew how to maximize vested interests and how to get what he wanted without any bloodshed.

Thus, Arthur wanted to take the initiative to befriend Lindsey so that he could get Aksel’s support and even gain a few allies for himself in the States, killing two birds with one stone.

However, he did not expect that his plans failed before he even executed them. Arthur played with the black phone in his hand and frowned as he pondered. "Where is Aksel's school?"

The bodyguard hurriedly replied. It was still the same one as before.

Arthur did not say a word and no one knew what he was thinking. He was used to being around proper ladies of society, all of which were gentle and refined. He had never met a woman who dared to burn his house down and still dared to hang up on him like this.

Lindsey was not aware of Arthur’s thoughts. After blocking his number, Lindsey felt a lot more at ease.

Her mind also gradually calmed down.

Arthur actually followed them all the way home without doing anything inappropriate and even took the initiative to call her. Was he really trying to send a different signal?

He also reached out to Shaun to invest in the company. The more she thought about it, the weirder Lindsey felt.

Could it be that after being locked up for almost two weeks, this man finally thought it through?

Lindsey could not figure it out, so she stopped thinking about it and called Soren instead. She asked him if he could accompany her to send Dezi to school tomorrow morning.

"Is something wrong?" Soren asked as he held Sieben in one hand and his phone in the other. He did not look troubled at all.

Lindsey heard Sieben's voice on the other side of the phone shouting, "I wanna play!"

Soren's voice seemed a little far from the phone, probably because he held the phone farther away as he said in a cold voice, "No!"

Lindsey frowned as she listened to the conversation between the two of them, but Soren had always pampered Sieben and had a sense of propriety, so he must have his reasons for not letting her play. Once Lindsey thought of this, she felt at ease again.

“Dezi and I saw Arthur’s people again today. He called me just now, so I’m just afraid that something will happen...” Lindsey quickly confided in him.

Soren said, “Alright then, I’ll send you and Dezi tomorrow.”

He was strong, but he only smacked her once with barely a quarter of his strength. Even so, Sieben still yelped in pain.

"What are you doing?!" Sieben was in pain and started to struggle desperately when she came to her senses. Soren just held her tightly and would not let go.

Soren usually could not stay mad at her. He did not expect that the first time he did not control his force, Sieben's eyes were already teary.

He suddenly felt bad for her and wanted to coax her, but he was afraid that if he did that, Sieben would not learn her lesson, so he could only continue the act and said, "How many times have I told you not to casually take things from strangers?"

Sieben’s eyes were watery as she looked at Soren. She pouted and stubbornly raised her chin. "Chris is not a stranger!"

Soren was initially a bit soft-hearted, thinking that he would scare her a little and leave it, but this time, Sieben really pissed him off. Soren's face instantly turned glum and he raised his hand again to smack Sieben's butt. "How many times have you seen him? Do you know what he does? How old is he? Why would he suddenly give you something?"

This time, although Soren raised his hand high, that slap was not painful. Sieben knew, but she was still angry about the slap earlier and did not look at Soren. She pouted and said, "Why do you care?! Chris is a good guy. He even played with me. You’re the bad guy!"

Soren was infuriated.

‘This stupid Chris! F*ck that guy!’

Suddenly, Soren let go of Sieben and pushed her aside. Although his face was expressionless, he was obviously furious. Even so, he did not show it. He was usually calm and restrained. For the first time, he felt that he was about to lose it and felt a fit of inexplicable anger that was suffocating him. He was about to go crazy.

Although Sieben had the mental age of a six-year-old, that did not mean that she was dumb. She now regretted what she just said and now Soren pushed her away.
