Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128 Full of Lies

"I can't figure it out. That's why I ask you, Dr. Lane."

Just like during the journey here, Jane was very capable of restraining her emotions.

Seeing that the car had already turned into the familiar street, Cora asked her back, "So, you suddenly decided to learn woodcarving to figure out why I became Sir Yoris' apprentice. Is that correct, Dr. Yoris?"

Jane did not respond, which could be regarded as acquiescing.

There was no point in denying it. In fact, Cora had already seen through her motive as early as when she followed Cora to become Gideon's apprentice.

And because of Jane's frankness earlier, Cora no longer continued to hide. "If I say I do this solely for self-protection, will you believe it, Dr. Yoris?"

Jane parked the car under Cora's apartment and looked at Cora with a puzzled expression. "Self-protection? What self-protection?"

Although she didn't like Cora, she still believed her words at this moment.

Cora said, "You should ask your mother about this. She knows it better."

Then Cora took her bag and pushed open the car door. "Dr, Yoris, I still need to thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to drive me back."

At this point, Jane's mind had started to become a mess.

She couldn't figure out why this matter was related to her mother.

When she pondered whether she could believe Cora's words while gripping the steering wheel, she saw Cora, who had gotten out of the car earlier, knocking on her car window.

Jane had no choice but to roll down the window.

Cora bent down and said sincerely, "As a reward for driving me home tonight, I would like to advise you that I have no interest in assisting you. You have to deal with dirtiness when you learn woodcarving, and it is an exhausting and strenuous job. There is no need for Dr. Yoris to learn this art just to compete with someone like me."

Jane didn't think that Cora was persuading her out of kindness, so she just replied with a smile, "You're worrying too much, Dr. Lane. I just didn't wish for my grandfather to have no one to inherit his skills. Anyway, it's getting late. You should go back and rest early, Dr. Lane."

"Good night, Dr. Yoris," Cora said before turning around and walking away.

Jane soon started the car and disappeared into the night.

When Cora got inside, Byron was already in the apartment.

"Is this the ruthless thing you meant?" He didn't turn on the lights, and the room was a little dim.

This woman was not a pure angel. She could be a demon, a charmer, and a schemer.

He just wanted to get rid of her at first, but the closer they got, the more he had to admit that he was addicted to her.

This was not a good sign.

As far as he was concerned, being too greedy for a woman was tantamount to having a weakness.

But did he really want to go that far for her?

Byron supposed he still needed to think about it.

However, his long silence seemed to have caused the woman in her arms to misunderstand something, as she quickly let go of his collar and broke free from his long arms.

"A man's mouth is truly full of lies. You said that she has nothing to do with you, yet you started to worry about her the moment I said I wanted to harm her!"

Cora seemed to only turn around and grumble as she pleased.

Only she knew that turning around was just an excuse to conceal the gradually broken expectation and attachment in her eyes.
