Fated love: the unwanted bride
Chapter 1056 - Chapter 1056 Chapter 1056 You Have to Get Used to Having More

Chapter 1056: Chapter 1056: You Have to Get Used to Having More People Around Chapter 1056: Chapter 1056: You Have to Get Used to Having More People Around “I had been living in peace for five years, and those years were stable and fulfilling for me. Why did you have to interfere and break this peace?” Lilac Serval challenged.

Her eyes held anger and discontent, bloodshot red.

In the quiet five years she had, the years when she owned nothing, she indeed lived in tranquility.

Of course, aside from tranquility, she had nothing else.

Over those five years, she neither pursued life’s aspirations nor held hopes for the future; her days were more about living for the moment, drunkenly and carelessly.

Sylvan Cheney kept a group of people in Lonton, her included.

So she didn’t worry about food, clothes, or money, simply living one day at a time.

She would carry out tasks when assigned, and play when there were none.

Over time, she became accustomed to it.

She felt she might continue living like this for the rest of her life.

Of course, she also didn’t discount the possibility, as Charles McIntosh mentioned, that she might one day drink herself to death.

“I thought you were living securely,” Charles McIntosh said dispassionately and fell silent again.

He had thought she was doing fine, so he never sought her out or disturbed her tranquility.

But unexpectedly, when they met this year, it was not at all the case.

One could even say their situations were sharply divergent.

“Just say what you want,” Lilac Serval said coldly.

“Nothing much, just that you’ll have to get used to having an additional person around from now on.”

“What if I refuse?”

“Then I wouldn’t mind telling Mr. Cheney about you shortening Chale Cheney’s training time and buying him toys.”

“Despicable villain, are you threatening me?” Lilac Serval glared at him.

Was he actually threatening her? Threatening her?!

Charles McIntosh chuckled lightly, his lips curving into a slight smile.

The car suddenly fell into silence.

Lilac Serval was far from calm, giving Charles McIntosh several scathing looks, but he seemed nonchalant and undisturbed.

Lilac Serval gritted her teeth in fury and itching to retaliate, but she was helpless against him.

If he told Mr. Cheney, then she would truly be in an inescapable predicament.

“Don’t be nervous, I won’t do anything to you as long as you behave,” Charles McIntosh said, “Has Chale been obedient lately?”

“Obedient.”

“Oh.”

Lilac Serval dared not say more, afraid of accidentally revealing her trip with Chale to the UT.

If that came out, she would give Charles McIntosh another lever against her.

“How about Mr. Cheney?” Lilac Serval asked.

“In the UT.”

“The UT?” Lilac Serval was startled but relieved she had brought Chale back a few days ago, “Why would he go there?”

“There are a few new branches opening; he went for the ribbon-cutting ceremonies, that’s all.”

“Oh.” Lilac Serval was startled again.

So, the person Chale saw in the video today could very well have been Mr. Cheney?

Lilac Serval dared not ask further, afraid of misspeaking.

She knew just how shrewd Charles McIntosh was.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have become Mr. Cheney’s right-hand man.

“Why don’t you ask whether my injury has healed?” Charles McIntosh said lightly.

“I see you’ve recovered quite well, just not sure if Elder Childe left you capable of fathering children,” Lilac Serval sneered.

“That, you could try to find out,” Charles McIntosh’s lips curved into a smile.

Several months had passed; what was there to ask? Lilac Serval couldn’t be bothered.

Seeing him like this, he appeared to have no issues whatsoever.

Plus, people like them, who had faced life-and-death situations since childhood, considered such injuries trivial.

What surprised Lilac Serval was his survival amidst so many highly skilled bodyguards of Spencer Childe; it was no easy feat.

If he turned against her in the future, it would be all too easy for him.

At that thought, Lilac Serval shivered.
