Chapter 76
Alexander wasn't listening to Lila at all right now.
He curled his lips coldly, suppressing the displeasure and anger in his chest, "After you married me, you sleep in a luxuriously decorated villa, drive a car worth tens of millions to work, enjoy a private office that others might not get even after years of hard work. On workdays, while others are running around exhausted trying to make a living, you just need to sit in the most expensive office building in Oceancrest City reading books, and you can easily collect your salary. You've gotten so much, and you won't even have a child?"
At this point, Alexander laughed in anger, "Why don't you tell me, what exactly is your value?"
Lila felt like her wrist was about to break.
But seeing how furious he was, she didn't cry out in pain again.
Lila met Alexander's eyes, "I live in your villa and have to cook for you, put up with your constant criticism. The luxury car is also part of the job you arranged for me. I only accepted it to go along with you. I don't need this job and don't care about it. As for the private office, that was also Grandma's idea. Yes, I got it, but did I ask for it? Why are you putting all these things on my tab? As for work, employees should naturally get paid - everyone does. Otherwise, what's the point of working so hard?"
After saying this, Lila looked into Alexander's eyes more deeply and added, "Why should I have a child just because you want one? Should I also be grateful and hand over my life with both hands if you asked for it?"
Alexander narrowed his eyes slightly, "You're so good at arguing?"
"I'm just telling the truth."
"Since your mind is so clear, you should also know that there are responsibilities and obligations between husband and wife. I give you a house to live in, give you a job, give you an office. Shouldn't you also fulfill your obligations as a wife?"
Lila froze.
Although a guess had already clearly emerged in her mind, she still asked as if possessed, "What obligations?"
"Weren't you so smart just now? Now you're playing dumb with me?"
"You said you wouldn't touch..."
Before she could finish, Alexander interrupted her, "I did say that, but I've changed my mind now."
Lila was speechless and lowered her head.
Alexander looked at her silent appearance and raised his eyebrows with a cold laugh, "What, you're not willing?"
Did it matter whether she was willing or not?
He wouldn't respect her wishes anyway.
In the silence, Lila glanced at her wrist that he was holding, "If you want to break my wrist, just do it more directly, okay!"
Only after Alexander followed her gaze did he realize he'd been gripping her wrist the whole time, and because of his anger, the force in his palm wasn't light at all.
Alexander immediately let go.
However, the red fingerprints on her wrist were extremely clear.
Lila felt the pain and couldn't help rubbing it, opening her mouth stubbornly through gritted teeth, "Fine, fulfill obligations then. You're the CEO of the Sinclair Group, handsome and rich. Getting to sleep with you is a profit for me. This deal is totally worth it."
Hearing these words, Alexander couldn't help but frown slightly.
Why did he get the feeling from her words that he was the one at a disadvantage?
Lila really had a unique way of thinking.
Alexander took a step closer to her, "Since you're so brave, why don't we start right now?"
Lila froze, suddenly afraid, "What?"
She looked at him, her mind full of the fact that this was the Sinclair Group's office.
She was confused - confused that Alexander would say such embarrassing things in a place like the office.
Was he even normal?
