Was it on purpose? Or naturally seductive?
A brief smile appeared on the man's face. "Alright."
After a few moments the car again turned into a dead silence. Mathieu took some documents with his glasses on.
The man remained seated by the window of the car. Dappled sunlight streamed through the tree leaves and the sunlight fell on his distant face. He rolled up the sleeves of his white long sleeve and casually crossed his legs. The simple gold frame glasses resting on the bridge of his nose not only detracted from his wonderful aura, but actually made him look even more seductive.
Selena was speechless!
Why does it seem to be getting worse?!
She'll gonna felt restless all day!
He deliberately did it on purpose! no doubt!
Everyone in the entertainment industry do agrees that some male actors' looks can be deadly. However, the man she just got married with, just now could summon and remove souls by only lifting his finger.
"What are you thinking?" Mathieu felt she had something to say but rather hesitant.
Selena snapped out of her thoughts and tried her best to organize her thoughts. Her heart was pounding aggressively as she carefully open her mouth, "I... I am sorry, Mr. Hemsworth. I apologize I think I hit my head hard-too hard on the road to the point that resulting for having such thoughts making me not thinking straight anymore... Therefore I sincerely apologize Mr. Hemsworth for eating into your time for such nonsense stuff, I shouldn't ask for such a thing like marriage, so um I guess..."
As Selena spoke her eyes landed on the man's attractive adam's apple. She couldn't stop herself from stuttering as she felt her cheeks flamed up; making her heart skip a beat. "You...so..um yet... I um I think..."
Mathieu turned over the documents in his hands and said patiently, "You what."
Selena close her eyes, took a deep breath and slowly regained her composure as she continues. "I think Mr. Hemsworth, our marriage won't work. I mean... I'd... We... We'd better get a divorce, yes! Yeah, let's do it right away! I mean now!...now, right now! While-while it's still early... I didn't mean to waste your precious gold time...however you know... So..."
Mathieu asked, "So?"
Selena suggested, "What if...if I just kneel down now and do some.... um kow-kowtow a hundred times, No a million times... How does that sound? Fair negotiation? Will it do? Yeah?"
Mathieu laughed softly. "Mrs. Hemsworth, apparently I'm a businessman. Thus, kneeling and bowing won't do me any good or get me benefits, what do you think?"
Selena looks sullen. "Uh, so even if I bang my head against the wall until it bleeds, I know it's useless for you, right? Yeah, however I don't know how else to apologize and get your approval for our divorce. A single sorry does not sound right too? Right?"
Under his wife inattentional blindness Mathieu's black pupils sparkled as he silently observed Selena. His eyes are like a deep ocean, unfathomable and mysterious. "There are two ways you can get my approval."
Selena's eyes immediately lit up as she carefully gather her thoughts and attention onto him. "Two ways? What's that?"
Mathieu is an inscrutable and mysterious man. That's why, every time he talks to her, she seems to be on tenterhooks.
She could never read this man's thought nor his unknown next move. She just find herself itchy in seats as her hand cannot wait to sign up the divorce paper!
Mathieu didn't answer. He paused for a moment before speaking. His voice was soft and mellow; full-flavor and courteous as if he didn't drop a bomb into it. "The methods are simple, Mrs. Hemsworth... It is either you pay compensation today or stay with me until you are able to pay."
Huh?! What?
Selena was too dazed to form any words.
What the hell! Does he mean she can't leave until she pay the compensation?!
Well she's not in short of money though? And marriage register certainly was cheap, yeah!
She'll definitely pay, right away!
What the heck... Was this man really a cheapskate?! She certainly know a couple of hundred or thousand was a cent to him so was he so... well never mind! Marriage registration is not very expensive, yeah? I'm sure I can pay for it now.
Without further thought, Selena hurriedly nodded. "Sure sure, I'll pay now! How much was the compensation Mr. Hemsworth?"
Mathieu's smile widened like one wave after another. "Only five million dollar Mrs. Hemsworth."
Selena blinked as she look at him in disbelief. She stammered. "Five...Five million dollar!"
Wow! Only?!
Damn that's expensive!
Why does it sound so cheap for him to say??
But... but why is it so expensive??!
"Daniel..." Mathieu just signalled Daniel, who was sitting quietly in the driver's seat, to explain the situation.
Daniel immediately understood his boss. "Madame, before master and you registered the marriage, madame. The young master had already informed me to prepare the preparations for a simple wedding, which would literally only cost just over ten million. But don't worry madame, you only have to pay the compensation price which is only five million. This compensation is only for the young master's losses."
Is it my fault? Who the hell told this man to make an advance arrangements!
Her husband's handsome face simply does not match with his IQ!
Selena stammered as she nervously looked at the man. "Mr. Hemsworth, I'm really sorry. But...ahm... I'm just really poor... I do not have any money....so...."
Mathieu's lips lifted. "In that case, we don't have to separate for the meantime. You stay with me until you have enough money to pay me Mrs. Hemsworth..."
Selena: !!! Damn it!
