Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 620

This was completely different from what Lindsey thought was going to happen. She previously thought that Arthur was going to take Dezi back solely for the sake of having more power in his hands after he succeeded in being the head of the family, but he surprisingly did not do all this for the inheritance.

This was not at all like those TV shows that Lindsey watched before. Or perhaps Danish families were all so open-minded?

For the first time, Lindsey felt that she had lived more than twenty years of her life in vain.

Arthur was still muttering to himself, looking like he had suddenly realized something. "Ugh, I can't believe I just said such an important thing like that. It should’ve been said in a more formal setting."

Lindsey had no strength to refute.

After a long time, she finally said, "Then why must you find him? Just to give him money?"

Arthur's expression was not any better this time. He looked like he had a headache. "Did you even listen to what I said?"

Lindsey subconsciously shook her head. She always thought that this man was a big scheming liar, so Lindsey only listened half-heartedly and forgot most of what he said.

"I own more properties than I can count, and I’m looking for Aksel to get his support. This is far more important to me than those material things. Every head of the Evans family needs to have the support of all family members. It’s our family’s tradition and symbolizes a great honor."

Arthur finished explaining patiently, he braced himself for more of Lindsey's stupid questions.

For the first time, he felt that Lindsey was not as smart as she seemed. She might even be a little dumb, a bit like the goose that he secretly raised in the pond back home when he was young. It was such a silly goose.

Lindsey felt that his family was like a royal family that had to gain the people’s love.

She did not know what to say, so she nodded. "I guess...this is pretty good." It was completely different from what she thought fighting for the family fortune would be like. No wonder this family was still standing after all these years.

The proud look on Arthur's face deepened. "That's for sure."

Lindsey looked at his arrogant face and suddenly wanted to laugh a little.

Compared to the time they first met, this man was completely different from the cold-looking man who looked disdainful of everything.

After such a big roundabout, they actually had been on different wavelengths all this while.

Even so, Lindsey did not believe Arthur's words so easily, but at least she did not reject him as much as before.

"You’re just saying this. How are you gonna prove it? If Dezi doesn’t go back, will your family even acknowledge his opinion? Also, he doesn’t need whatever you plan to give him, so just keep it for yourself."

Arthur's jaw was taut, and he had a unique sense of aloofness. "What I said is true. You’ll see my sincerity eventually."

Lindsey nodded fervently. "Good, I'll wait and see."

After saying that, she looked behind Arthur. "Then can I go home now, Mr. Arthur? Dezi’s still waiting for me."

Arthur froze for a moment and stepped aside. "Sorry, I didn't mean to."

"It's okay." Lindsey lightly nodded. "You should go home early too. By the way, thanks for Dezi’s gift, he likes it very much."

After she said that, she lowered her head and walked into the building. Arthur stood in place for a while before remembering that he still had something important to tell Lindsey.

The person who spoke was a young man who had just graduated. Quentin raised his hand and tapped him on the shoulder. "What nonsense is that?"

‘Didn’t this boy see that no one else mentioned this taboo topic? He’s so slow-witted. No wonder he’s been in the company for a year and still hasn't been promoted yet…’

The young man looked aggrieved and asked, "What’s wrong? Isn't it?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Quentin downed his cup of hot chocolate and casually threw the cup into the trash can. "Why don’t you ask the President?"

The man laughed sarcastically. "I wouldn’t dare..."

Strangely enough, no one in Denarius seemed to care for Ann and did not seem to be a fan of the President's soon-to-be wife. Everyone seemed reluctant to comment on Ann’s marriage with Zayn.

On the contrary, the one time that the President's ex-wife came to the office, everyone seemed so intrigued and would magically appear at the President's Office with documents that needed to be signed and would also seem to have more ideas for new projects that needed to be approved.

The young man still did not figure it out. Suddenly, the secretary said, "Quentin, someone’s looking for the President."

Quentin glanced at the time and subconsciously wrinkled his eyebrows. "At this hour? No!"

The secretary quickly stuffed the phone into his hand and mouthed without making a sound, "Then you tell her! I won’t!"

Quentin just thought that this young girl was getting bolder by the day. While he glanced at the phone to pick it up, he already plastered an impeccable smile on his face.

"Ms. Ann, is there anything you need at this late hour?"
